Why not? They each have one wife.

I agree. You made a serious error. I am sure it will take you a while to unwrap other false doctrines you have embraced because of it.

I am making a comparison between the two, as you tried to do with this text about divorce. You keep trying to treat them the same, God does not. God hates divorce. You cannot honestly say that about polygamy. For some reason, you think he is coy in the matter of polygamy.

What could the Bible say to make you believe God does condone polygamy?

I am just curious if you would allow these men to serve right now, wives in tow, as bishops/overseers in your church? and why not?

Hey marke, Now that you have surrendered Deuteronomy 17:17 as a defense of your monogamy-only position let's deal with this article you cut and pasted. That is an excellent question! And one your article never wrestles with. Truth is what matters. Right? It doesn't matter what you or I...

Why do you suppose the author doesn't just say wife? How does the person in this text deal treacherously with her according to the text? Malachi 2:16 “For the man who does not love his wife but divorces her, says the LORD, the God of Israel, covers his garment with violence, says the LORD of...

Moses had a wife. Abraham had a wife. David had a wife. Would you allow them to be bishops in your church?

Okay, so it sounds like you have dropped Deuteronomy 17:17 from your monogamy-only position. I'll accept your silence as reluctant acceptance.

Great stuff. So do you recognize that Deuteronomy creates an unspecified upper limit that otherwise did not exist? In the next verses, we read, Deuteronomy 17:18-19 “And when he sits on the throne of his kingdom, he shall write for himself in a book a copy of this law, approved by the...

God hates divorce. He said so in Malachi. Nothing like that was ever said about polygyny. But this really doesn't address my question to you about Deuteronomy 17:17 though. Have your thoughts changed about it?

So you agree with me, that Deuteronomy 17:17 is not where "...God disapproved of kings committing polygamy." Is that right? That was my question after all. Remember when I wrote, "...Where was that? Certainly not Deuteronomy 17:17. That verse merely limits kings to less than a great many...

I'm not sure why you quoted me. You didn't interact with what I wrote at all. Can we deal with your previous claim? Or did you surrender that point? That being that kings were forbidden from multiple marriages. Where did you get that from?

Where was that? Certainly not Deuteronomy 17:17. That verse merely limits kings to less than a great many wives. Hardly, disapproval.

It was allowed? Isn't there was a monogamy mandate somewhere Genesis?

Yes, and there is a command in the Bible against murder, with a matching penalty. What was your point?

That's the real question.

That was a great show. Unfortunately, the indoctrination was thorough. Has there been a follow-up show?

So this wasn't more about the bombing of Libya last Month.? I mean yes there is the fact that he's a Muslim, but he's been living there for a while. Doesn't make more sense to connect it to the bombing the United States did in Libya considering that's where he came from? Just maybe this is blowback?

I rock! How about you?
