Juliearth: 1king11:1-8... Solomon married women isolator s. Never talked about God having issue with him marrying more than one wife. Deut:17:17 commands that those who commits abominable act of Idol worship should be killed. Lev. 18:18 advises that one shouldn't marry one's sister while the other is still alive so that they won't be rivals of themselves. Deut 21:15If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated: 1tim3:12 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife... Meaning that non bishop's "is allowed to" marry more than one wife. 1tim3:12:Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife,.. (so if you are not a deacon or aspiring to be one, you can take up more than one wife) Tutus 1:6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, (Paul commending Titus and qualities of one that should be a bishop) 1cor7:1-16 let everyone get married if they so desire... (this is a little bit relevant to the question I asked but no direct injunction to keep to one wife) Eph5:25 to 33Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church... So you agree with me that there's no placeentioned in Bible that has a direct injunction against polygamy. If you still feel otherwise kindly come up with relevant references pls. Bible rules have always been straightforward and easy to understand e.g. Though shall not kill, though shall not steal etc 1 Like |

Jodha:my dear its not abot dressing or nt dressing wel if not Tonto Dike's hubby wudnt be havin a sidechic. If a man hasnt d fear of God in him like Joseph in d bible forget it he surely wud cheat at d slightest opportunity. A man dt fears God wud neva cheat on his wife even she doestn dress attractive or seductively at home. |

eripecs:He made only male and female but did he everention "marry only one wife" just like every other Commandment: thought shall not steal, though shall not kill etc. Why didn't he condemned Abraham for committing adultery. He rather blessed his two offspring immensely. Jacob married two sisters yet God never discredited him. He rather blessed him beyond measure so was David, Solomon and many more. 1 Like 1 Share |

Many of you dont know the bible. It is written, a man shall not divorce his wife or vice versa for any reason, but for infidelity. There's no question - divorce straight up. Only if d woman is a typical naija woman (100% dependent on d man- financially) |
Re: As A Christ-like Woman, What Will You Do In Any Of These Situations? by jabojafa(m): 4:04pm On Mar 26, 2017 |
PaperLace:i dnt agree wit ur assertion abt Christ supporting divorce. If wot u said is true why wud Christ advice us to forgive 7*70time per day. And why wud d bible say a divorced man/woman is guity of fornication if they remarry while deir ex is still alive? Go back and read that scripture dt talks abt divorce again in different version for beta understanding and ask d Holy Spirit to interprete it to you. 1luv |

Dottore:Not explicitly from what I can find in scripture. the only thing is that you cannot become any form of leader in church. 1Timothy 2:3 It was however, God's original design that marriage be between one man and one woman (Mark 10:6-8, Genesis 2:22) |

PaperLace:Mark 10:2-12 shows that it was never God's intention that married people could divorce, but for people's hard-heartedness. verse 8-9 also shows God's intentions for marriage to be permanent, a fusion of two souls, that what he joined, no man (even a judge) should put asunder. |

jabojafa: I know but there are some things and circumstances that do move people to do what they never planned.. If a wife does not take care of herself.. Looking all old and Haggard.. Maybe just after one child.. You're already dressing like "Maamukwu" (a great grand mother).. Even if the man has the fear of God.. If he goes out and see other young looking.. Fresh girls.. He'll be tempted.. Secondly If a woman nags alot.. She pushes him outside. .. Even if he doesn't want to cheat.. When he meets a more receptive lady.. He'll think twice.. That's why I say. .. It's very.. Very important for women to check their selves first.. Hope yhu get my point?.. |

Juliearth:None of them support one man - one woman marriage law even, Deut 21:15 confirm that man can marry more than one wife. The problem u guys have is that u interpret Bible with ur desires, for instance, it is clearly said in 2 places in the Bible that women should not take leadership position u ignore it because u don't like it. |

safarigirl: I like u....smart answer. But what beats me is that the same women crying foul now, when they meet a responsible man who truly loves them, they wikk decide to make the man's life a living hell. If I have a woman who cares about me as much as these "Christian" ladies prescribe...if only, but na Christian men dey suffer pass, na dem go dey bargain with the wife to get sex , and put up with insults because the woman feels his religion won't allow him look outsyd, the reason why most experienced men will rather die than be vulnerable to a woman in the name of love....when man loves a woman he doesnt hurt her..and make it look like its her fault, and also a woman who that truly loves her husband...(not one bullied into submission) will give her all. 1 Like 1 Share |

TonyeBarcanista: Well that's where the power of a covenant comes in. Do u know that some men have been roughly handled by God because of the way they treated their wives who are covenant daughters of God? Do u know that some people (both men and women alike) have special covering over their head that no one can hurt then and go Scott free? Its about enforcing the covenant... With little flogging the man go learn. By the way, wives..especially wives of genuine men of God must always expect "the strange woman" (locally called karashika)...on a mission to ruin the man and his ministry.. It's your duty to pray that he doesn't even fall into the trap...its not easy to be called by God o...na temptation from then all. Then some men are just natural born cheats...that need to be taught a lesson. It goes both ways too. |

delishpot:Are you trying to say your bible is outdated? The holy book is divine as such can never be outdated. We people can change our behaviours but we shouldn't change the holy book to suit our needs. I supposed bible should be the epitome of morality and society or am I missing something? |

safarigirl:Sorry i am not condoning adultery. And the question I try to give my opinion on was the issue concerning the woman. And I am sure you don't or won't pay a bride price to any man to marry him but vice versal. As such man is the head of the house. Such decisions mostly rely on the husband. |

PaperLace: All these issues can be prevented if we seek God's perfect will in finding a partner. ...God cannot give u a husband whose aim is to make your life miserable cuz I can assure you, as a true daughter of God, Satan din package one guy keep to ruin your destiny...and make your life hell. Then after following God's will to find the right partner in destiny, its the duty of both to always pray for each other cuz the devil will not stop at anything..to ensure you have a failed marriage. If u doubt...go ask wives of pastors of Big churches, the prayers they pray with their husbands against attacks by the devil. |

teeghurl: Thank You! Simple. Jesus said the greatest commandments are love God with all your body, heart and soul and love your neighbour as you love yourself. If we follow this simple commandments, we won't have any need for prayers to fight this and that. Ecclesiastes says that God created men perfect, but they have gone after dubious schemes. 1 Like |
