One man, one woman.

That was the standard.

If you must cheat, cheat all your marrows with your wife alone!

The standard... Whose standard sets by who. He can cheat but he can not marry a second wife. What kind of rubbish standard is that?

Standard set by who? The white brought monogamy to help with over population

CaroLyner:
In the New Testament Jesus discussed marriage and how the Jews messed up the original plan. He gave the following teaching: "Haven't you read," He replied, "that He who created them in the beginning made them male and female, and He also said: For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two will become one flesh? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, man must not separate." Matt. 19:4-6 Notice that Jesus refers right back to Genesis to demonstrate the one man/one woman desire of God.

We can next look at what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 7:2: But because of sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman should have her own husband. Notice that Paul did not say “wives” or “husbands”; the meaning is clear that each man is to have but one wife.

TonyeBarcanista:
Monogamy is European concept. It has nothing to do with Christianity...

It is individual's right to be monogamous, polygamous or even staying unmarried like Paul

What do u think?

Preetti:
So when you marry a second wife cause you don't want to "cheat" and you meet someone new you're attracted to you'll marry that one too making wifey number 3, then number 4 comes along, then 5th, 6th and the list continues.
It's no wonder they say some of you reason with your carrots.

RTO:
I tell you.Bunch of clowns

daveP:
Well, for the record, shocking as it seems, NOWHERE In the NT is any verse that says a man should practice monogamy. Monogamy is rather and specifically talked about as regards the office of the Bishop.


I stand to be corrected!


Infact, there were lots of believers in the churches planted by Paul that had polygamous home.


But, still.....
