CAN I HAVE MULTIPLE WIVES?
#TOLD
TRUTH OVER LIES DAILY

Q: There are a bunch of things I the Bible that were 100% acceptable years ago. Today they are shunned upon, but the church teaches God never changes… For example When did multiple wives and concubines stop and the new commandment to stop whoring take over? Why does it seem like the Lord’s perspective on things changed when he’s all knowing?

Q: I have a question about polygamy. People are saying that it’s biblical to have more than on wife. Is it lawful? As far as biblically.

A: The Lord didn’t change His Creation Law or Moral standards… but sometimes He strives with man, sometimes He didn’t. (Genesis 6:3).

Sometimes he winks at ignorance (even though His law still effects the sinner), but sometimes He commands all men to repent (Acts 17:30-32) .

Yah doesn’t change, but He does execute certain outreaches/proclamations/punishments at different times.

As far as multiple wives and concubines… from the BEGINNING, God made them male and female. 2 become one. This is simply Natural law, and Creation Design and Order.

All the men that had multiple wives had violence in their families also, because that’s how it works. It’s Creation law.

When we study Genesis, we see that the first marriage was one man/one woman.

We see that the first mention of a man with multiple wives was also a murderer (Lamech). When we realize the “law of first mention” we begin to see that pattern throughout the rest of Scripture.

Yah even warned Israel that the king should not multiply wives unto himself (Deuteronomy 17:17). David and Solomon didn’t listen, and they payed the price.

Multiple wives leads to envy, iniquity, and violence across multiple generations… and its simply not God’s will. This is why in the New Covenant, spiritual examples (elders) have to be the husband of ONE wife.

Jesus with His New Covenant brought us back to the BEGINNING.

The simple truth is that having more than one wife at once creates bad results for your family.
