Studying God's plan for marriage, monogamy is the ideal situation which balances the 'rights' and 'responsiblities' of both parties.

Would a polygamist go to hell? No idea

Would a man filled with the Spirit of God marry multiple wives? I 100% doubt it

The Bible talks abt immorality and all those aforementioned are immorality

Don’t be triggered ....I never said he’s lying...

I have my own views about polygamy...

I believe polygamy is greed...it’s repackaged adultery......women are the same...trust me...

I believe no one can love his wives equally... so already there will be biasness....

Polygamy breeds jealousy among wives and children...
if any woman tells u she’s fine with the fact that her husband is drilling another woman in the next room and will still put the same pen!s in her later on ....then u must believe I’m dangote...
So already I are just hurting several women emotionally who can’t talk because of their desperate need to be married and have children

At the end of the day...polygamy tramples upon the rights of woman..

This is my view.. I am not speaking from religion.


.it’s based on my views I feel that Reno is not alright..

kk

Why is polygamy always a sin committed by men only. Notice that there is hardly any comment by women.
Women have embraced it since the beginning of time to escape poverty; as a means to improve their standard of living. Most enjoy it.
I prefer it to gay marriage.

ThreeEyedRaven:
I totally agree with him. The Bible only instructs the ministers or church workers to marry only one wife but didn't speak against polygamy
not even workers or ministers... Let me say pastors as Paul put it in second Timothy ' he that desire the office of a Bishop should be a man with one wife' so is more of a pastor

Abraham and David among the holiest??

Reno is confused..

"Abraham believed God and it was counted unto him for righteousness.."

David on his part loved God to the uttermost which is why God loved him back exceptionally.. though he was divinely punished severally for his sins.

Their lifestyles weren't holy really just that they always admitted their wrongdoings immediately God calls them to account..

Reno is capital IGNORANT!

ebukajay184:
Former Presidential spokesperson and Pastor, Reno Omokri has shared his thoughts about polygamy in Christianity, IgbereTV reports.

According to Reno Omokri, the scripture is silent on polygamy and he doesn't know if it is a sin.

The Pastor who noted that most of the holiest men in the scriptures are polygamists, stated that he won't give a judgment on polygamy where God has not given a command. He concluded by stating that he has respect for polygamists than adulterers.

The former presidential spokesperson wrote on Twitter;

Reno is right, bible imposes one wife only on Bishop, pastors and deacons.
Bishops, Pastors and government law imposed it on members, so that they will not be the only one in the cage. Or to reduce or avoid trouble associated with polygamous family.

So David,Jacob,Gideon were not filled with the spirit or are you telling the Spirit of God did not exist in the old testament

Polygamy is not a sin, if it was God would have told us through his word

Thou shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free... First of all, during the old dispensation, the law hasn't been fulfilled, hence, the perfect will of God for mankind was yet to be disclosed. This was done at the arrival of the son of God into this sinful world. Jesus Christ came to fulfil the law, He explained all what God requires of true worshipers willing to serve and worship God in truth and in the spirit. He categorically pointed out that God only allowed the children of Isreal to have their way in the choice of marital doctrine by taking more wives to themselves because of their stiffed neck nature, but that was not Gods plan. The Children of Isreal as of then, do kill their wife when they're tired of the Marriage and Marries Another, so God allow them to have their way in divorce and in taking of more wives, but wasn't the original purpose of God for man.. IT IS ONE MAN FOR ONE WOMAN FOR LIFE.... Judgment will surely come upon those that falter Gods laws and Commandments, Let us be careful!

Where Gods will is revealed, human opinion doesn't count. How do we know the mind of God on polygamy? Sometimes God expect us as lovers of truth, crown of his creation and the most intelligent being he created on planet earth to be able to decipher some simple truth whether concealed or not too apparent.
Now to the subject under discussion, according to :
Matthew 19:9- Jesus said,

And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.

Here the whole essence of marriage is defined. Firstly that it's between one man and one woman. Secondly that a man does not have the right to divorce his wife abitrarily except for the clause above. It therefore means Jesus did not even make a single provision for polygamy as the door is shot since you can't even divorce the one you have not to talk of replacing her and since no one can come in while she's alive, it means you can neither replace nor add to her.
All who dare to thread on the ground of polygamy
in the old testament suffered excruciating pain far more than the enjoyment they derive from having free access to different partner. From Abraham to David, to Jacob, to solomon: just name it; they all wished never to have trod that path.
God doesn't have to talk too much on his like and dislike for those with hearing ears,but for those who do not obey the truth but have pleasure in unrighteousness whatever God says even if its plainly expressed, they'll still not obey. Didn't God warned against fornication and adultery? How many people are keeping to it, some even make it a full time trade selling their body for pecuniary gain.
In order word polygamy might be accepted as a permissive will in the old testament, but never again in the new testament,for Christ plainly said it's not Gods will from the beginning of creation and we must revert back to the original will of God which is one man one woman. No divorce,no remarriage, no polygamy.

As for what Paul said that a deacon or a bishop must be husband of one wife, it means he must be above board in marital issue for him to be able to properly teach others on what the relationship between a man and a woman should be. It doesn't mean church members can have more wives while he can't, No! It just means his own must be properly investigated and be so sure he doesn't have a woman somewhere who will come and hijack him while preaching and bring the gospel to public ridicule, because a leader sin is a leading sin; otherwise strike the shepherd and the ship will be scattered.

the bible does not need to be specific. i believe the bible mentions sins against the body, so watching pornography and maybe smoking can be considered sins against the body.

When it's about polygamy they remember Abraham, David and Solomon were not Christians and belong to the Old Testament but change conversation to tithe they start quoting Deuteronomy, Malachi etc in the Old Testament lipsrsealed
David was a killer, Solomon was idol worshiper. They weren't perfect men. Abraham's Ishmael is what brought about Islam today. See how everyone is suffering for it.

dapadawee:


first you need to understand what sin really is.
sin is deviation from God's plan
after Adam sinned man began to act contrary to God's will that's man began to do his own will how he feels. polygamy is man plan or wish. God carefully gave Adam a wife not two or three.
the second thing you need to know is that Jesus came to restore man to the original plan of God how God want it to be, now this may confuse u but know that it was only Adam sin that took man away from God just one man sin o. so therefore it's common sense that one man righteous act will take us back to God it's called reconciliation. and Jesus himself said in the beginning it was not so definitely he was saying go and study how it was in the beginning. Christian are followers of Christ.
another thing I want you to study is Noah and the water God started another generation after the flood and they were all male and female not polygamy. even the animals God told Noah to choose a female and male. it took just a female and male to produce every creature on Earth so what is your problem.

Response to the bolded I didn’t say I have a problem or problem with it so this is uncalled for.

To ur analysis it does make sense to a large extent. And perhaps it was gods plan for man to have just one wife even though Jesus never married and it doesn’t seem to be a sin if a man doesn’t marry at all. Speaking of deviation from the plan of God.
