Is Polygyny Evil? Biblical Polygyny Part One: Introduction

In this video series, I seek to demonstrate the the practice of polygyny (where one man is married to more than one woman at the same time) is NOT a sin; that it is not evil, and that the Scriptures actually approve of and sometimes require polygyny, and that the Scriptures never once condemn polygyny, and that the only reason people condemn polygyny is because of wicked traditions that they inherited from the Church and from their foolish and wicked cultures.

it is Illegal in the united states

@KingOystar i address this in my epilogue: its not illegal if the government considers you unmarried and you don't claim your marriage to be recognized by government. what matters is if God recognizes the marriage, so if someone thinks i'm a fornicator, that's there choice, but i'm not going to allow someone else to define who i am.

@carlsonap16

look, i have no problem with a man wanting to many wives and those women agree with it, but can you prove that your god is real?

[carlsonap16]

@galerouth yes i can. email me.  by the way my religion is nothing like you have encountered so the majority of your objections to God and religion do not apply to mine.

Being Christ-like is a very vague statement unless you clearly specifiy exactly what that entails SPECIFICALLY. Jesus was a man, does that mean women should teach in the Churches and be males? I highly doubt that. Polygamy is not banned in the NT, and in fact the only way to know what a sin is to begin with is by the law - Romans 7:7; Romans 3:20. And the Law does not mention Polygamy as being a sin, to the contrary, God has laws setting how He wants it practiced.

@modernrocks The Shepherd of Hermas teaches as well as other books affirming this in the 66. Where does it contradict? Have u read the bible without the sinful traditions of men guiding ur interpretations? If u watched the whole video series,u would have seen Scripture of the 66 that prove sin makes u lose salvation.

If i died today, I would most certainly go 2 hell.

The problem with ur belief, among many other things, is it contradicts Scripture, take matthew chapter 7 4 starters.

@carlsonap16 Hi again carl. Where do you get the idea you must be without sin for a set or certain time to be saved? It isnt in the word of god is it?, It contradicts the bible. And most importantly if you say you are not saved then doesnt that mean you are going to hell if you died today by yopur own theology? I say you most likely are saved because as a born again(saved) christian i believe the bible when it says if you confess Yahushua before men Yahushua will confess you before the farther

[carlsonap16]

@modernrocks I didnt see ur ?. As 2 the answer, Im in the process of repentance. Repentance isnt immediate, but u have 2b without sin 4 a certain length of time before you are saved. So, i'm in my process of gaining true repentance, but I have not yet chosen not to sin long enough to pass the time of testing; for i only recently come to the conclusions of how serious repentance is. Im currently choosing to not sin, but i'm not yet saved until i prove it by passing the trials of repentance.

@carlsonap16 Hi bro, no offence but you never seem to answer me. I asked you if you are saved. You answered everyone else but not me. Yahushua said we that you and me are to have an answer for faith based questions. Sorry if i have ever upset you i just wanted to ask you if you are saved?

[carlsonap16]

@NobodySpecial85 "husand of one wife" is not a justifiable translation. its more accurately "one woman man". What its saying is a man is 2 have strong moral integrity in that he respects the sanctity of marriage; hes against lust & fornication,& thus a one [with] woman man.

If ur correct about ur interpretation of the passages (most christians reject ur interpretation), then that means u better rip major books out of ur bible. u better toss out at least 9 books that r teachings of poly men.
