Ọmọ it's God's word i quoted for you so you are free to TRASH it at least you have seen what it says about Christianity! smiley
you have not said anything
Paul wasn't a monogamist....
God's word isn't confusing
It's you over Sabi people that are confusing yourself

Imagine you you claimed that only Monogamist are qualified to be an overseer
FLIP
you then turn 360 degrees saying Paul who wasn't a monogamist qualified
That's a FLOP

And that's how you go round and round the table flip flop

You don't understand the scriptures but i will teach for the benefit of interested followers of this thread.

Jesus said:

"Truly I say to you, among those born of women, there has not been raised up anyone greater than John the Baptist, but a lesser person in the Kingdom of the heavens is greater than he is" Matthew 11:11

All those who lived before John the baptist can't qualify for everlasting life until they are taught what Jesus the only way to life taught {John 14:6} so the way to everlasting life was first opened when people started listening to Jesus' words .

As for all those who lived before John the baptist they will still be resurrected to learn what Jesus taught for another 1,000 years and master it before they can qualify for everlasting life but among Christians some are qualified already for everlasting life because they will be taken to heaven where Satan can't reach them again.

That's why Jesus said all those who lived before John are lesser while those who are listening to him are greater than John in fact whoever hasn't learned from Jesus is still considered dead from God's standpoint even while they are still breathing! Luke 9:60 compare to Revelations 20:5-6
you're trying to change topic....stop derailing this thread.....I have TRASHED your digression

You are trying to be funny shey?

Well Jesus said it's either a Christian isn't married at all {Matthew 19:12} and Paul said monogamy [/b]so Paul is qualified according to Jesus and also monogamists! smiley
How can Paul be qualified when you said only Monogamist are qualified as an overseer?
Let's break it. Let's start with Paul.... because both Jesus & Paul were never married yet you insist that only Monogamist can be an overseer
[b]Was Paul a monogamist..
.Yes or no
Chose one

Please can you explain what apostle Paul meant in the below verses?😟

The overseer should therefore be irreprehensible, a husband of one wife, moderate in habits, sound in mind, orderly, hospitable, qualified to teach. 1Timothy 3:2

If there is any man free from accusation, a husband of one wife, having believing children who are not accused of debauchery or rebelliousness. Titus 1:6
was apostle Paul a monogamist? As you claim as the only approved status to be an overseer.....
You can't answer that

So according to your standard
Apostle Paul is not eligible for an overseer

Those who are not aspiring to be an overseer are not required to stick with one wife if there's a challenge that warrant another wife ...you can't point to any bible verse that makes it compulsory for every christian to marry Only one wife

All those who lived before Jesus said this were declared righteous because they don't have the opportunity to hear from Jesus!
Jesus gave condition for taking a second wife, that you must not divorce the first wife except she committed adultery

{Matthew 19:12} but anyone who marries more than one wife is against the standard God set in the beginning.
you are confusing yourself
Standard that was set in the old testament by Moses through inspiration allowed a man to marry a second wife. Exodus 10:21
Exodus 10:21

10) If he takes another wife, he must not reduce the food, clothing, or marital rights of his first wife

Paul never married just like Jesus
but you claimed that only Monogamist can officiate at the alter....

Are you dropping your lie now having been exposed that Paul wasn't a monogamist

I am not giving you a soft landing
You have to admit that you actually lied about monogamist as the only ones that can qualify as overseers.

Paul told Timothy that among gentiles only monogamists are fit for the altar in Christ's kingdom.
I believe that has spoken in volumes! smiley
Paul wasn't a monogamist yet he officiated at the alter!
Your analogy just exposed you Big time grin grin grin
I have always said it that principle of one wife has no basis in the scripture

MaxInDHouse:
First century Christians taught gentiles that only monogamists among them can become exemplars in the congregation so polygamists aren't fit for the altar! undecided
Then Apostle Paul isn't fit for the Alter because is isn't a monogamist!!
Can you see how your trying to force a concept that doesn't exist failed woefully

Malachi said dealing treacherously with one's partner is evil in God's sight. Malachi 2:14
Malachi is still under the old law? Old testament
So in light of That, Jacob dealt treacherously with Leah by further Marrying Rachel abi
Yet Jacob became Israel

You can see how your argument is so confusing


So do you think your son or brother in-law can marry another woman after your sister or daughter? Matthew 7:12
if he chooses so why not?
You now sounds like a baby....

MaxInDHouse:
The Bible talks about two different covenants:

Jesus made it clear to his disciples that if they want to live forever in Paradise they must return to the arrangement God made in the beginning which is One Adam One Eve! Matthew 19:4.
Matthew 19:4
“Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’

Mathew 19:4
Only hints about (PERFECT) Male and female Gender to produce Children.... when there was no Sin, no challenge or infirmities.
infact, Eve was 1000% sure to bore children, so there is no need for creating two women when eve is a perfect woman with full function to produce as many children as possible, chances today that a couple will bear children without any challenge is 50/50 some couple will never bear chidren because of Adam & eve sin, so it is wrong to conclude that because God created one PERFECT Adam & one PERFECT Eve, we that are imperfect with limited ability should stick to that arrangement, no ...Jacob Marries Leah and Further Racheal because of challenges in the issues of Marriage caused by sin of Adam Racheal could not even bear children on time, having Leah as wife was not counted as a sin to Jacob because that is the alternative for him to have ofsprings.

That's why first century disciples of Christ always insist on one wife before ordaining any pagan as overseer in the congregation of Christ {1Timothy 3:2; Titus 1:6}
One wife is only Mandatory for Only Overseers, must everyone be an overseer? no. overseers are seen as beyong reproach and so, one can chose not to be an overseer and still serve God with his whole heart. stop encouraging couples in an unheathy unproductive Marriages to die miserable.

Jewish Christians already know they mustn't marry more than one wife after Malachi has warned them against polygamy {Malachi 2:14}
You Lied!!! Polygamy was not even mentioned in that bible verse or any part of the Bible


So polygamy was permitted before Christ
! i challenge you to provide a single verse in the bible where polygamy is ever mentioned or just keep quiet

Stop talking rubbish.

Moses was in the presence of God, so common sense would have told you that if Moses's wife was tired of walking with him, he would have reported the matter to yt my and that God discussed the problem with him.

So, in the end that we see zipporah walk away from her marriage....
you're a liar ... to suggest that a woman who bore a son for Moses divorce moses...where was it written? You are too lazy to provide a biblical verse that says that zipporah walked away from her marriage ......Zipporah never walk out of her marriage.... Zipporah and his son joined Moses even after Moses married the Cushite woman.

Read the verse here

KJV

Exodus 18
2 then Jethro, Moses' father in law, took Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her back, 3and her two sons; of which the name of the one was Gershom; for he said, I have been an alien in a strange land: 4and the name of the other was Eliezer; for the God of my father, said he, was mine help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh: 5and Jethro, Moses' father in law, came with his sons and his wife unto Moses into the wilderness, where he encamped at the mount of God: 6and he said unto Moses, I thy father in law Jethro am come unto thee, and thy wife, and her two sons with her.
7And Moses went out to meet his father in law, and did obeisance, and kissed him;

Jesus didn't condemn Moses for having a second wife, because he didn’t divorce his first wife

Mathew 19:8-9
8Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hardness of heart; but it was not this way from the beginning. 9Now I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman, commits adultery.”

Jesus emphasized that Divorce was not accommodated in the old Law, because there is a provision for taking a second wife (in the event of unforeseen circumstances, e.g, Jacob marrying Leah & Rachel)

Where was it written? Exodus 10:21

10) If he takes another wife, he must not reduce the food, clothing, or marital rights of his first wife.


Why didn’t Jesus Condemn moses?

Because he Did not Divorce Shipporah his First wife before he Marries the second Kushite wife, That Gave Moses the Moral Justification to condemn Divorce before the pharisees, he maintain that they must be issued a certificate if they must be divorced because of their stubbornness.

Was Moses wrongly criticized for taking a second wife? Yes, by his sister Miriam


What was the result? Miriam was struck with Leprosy because she assumed that God’s spirit might have left Moses after taking a second wife. Read ...Numbers 12:1-16

Does the Bible Supports Polygamy?

The word Polygamy never exists in the holy scriptures, Polygamy is an English word that was forced to the context where a man decides to take a second wife, Polygamy confuses the act of taking a second wife when there was a challenge and a Man who decides to Marry as many woman as possible at the same time, which is Not the same.
For the purpose of this discussion, Polygamy is not found in the Bible and should not be used here, lets focus on whether Bible condemn taking a second wife or Not, kindly support your Narrations with bible verse and make it short
Thanks

PoliticsNatasha-akpoti Believes That Senate Rules Does Not Apply To Her by Benbellamor(op): 11:36pm On Sep 12, 2025
Challenging the Rules

She refused to follow certain parliamentary norms (e.g. seat reassignments) believing they were not valid in her case.

She insists on speaking or acting even when the rules say she must wait for recognition or stay in her assigned seat.

She contests the way rules have been enforced, claiming their enforcement is selective or used to silence dissent rather than maintain order.

By continuing to claim the role and her authority even during suspension (“I’ll continue to act as senator…”) she is implicitly challenging the legitimacy of the restriction
.


What the Senate Says:

They emphasize that her actions—speaking without recognition, refusing seat reassignments, making unparliamentary remarks—are breaches.

The Senate-spokesperson has also said Natasha must comply with the rules of the Senate, such as speaking from the assigned seat, etc.


after a tumutuos first quarter The Senate has simply waited to teach her a Lesson by just Ignoring her, & put the right Security apparatus in place at the entrance of the Assembly parliament, it wont end Soon

Enjoy the show

PoliticsRe: High Chief Emmanuel Uduaghan, Senator Natasha Akpoti Husband Speaks by Benbellamor: 8:56pm On Mar 01, 2025
quote author=Highnesscfr2030 post=134355516]High Chief Emmanuel Uduaghan, Senator Natasha Akpoti Husband , the Alema of Warri Kingdom Speaks

I had initially resolved to refrain from commenting on the ongoing dispute between my beloved wife, Senator Natasha H Akpoti-Uduaghan, and the Senate President, Senator Godswill Akpabio. However, recent developments have compelled me to issue this statement. It is clear that certain sentiments are being stirred up unnecessarily, distracting from the serious underlying allegations, which should concern every discerning individual with sound family values.

Without prejudice to the ongoing legal proceedings, I wish to emphasize that my wife was duly elected by her people due to the immense love, respect, and confidence they have in her and she is committed to delivery quality representation to her district and the Nation at large. She is a devoted wife, and the bond we share is deep and unwavering. She has always remained truthful, even in the face of adversity.

My wife has confided in me about her interactions with the Senate President, whom I considered a family friend. In response, I approached the matter with the utmost maturity and responsibility, as it is my duty as a traditional leader who has immense respect for constituted authority and upholds core family values, foster peace and harmony. I personally met with the Senate President and respectfully urged him to extend the courtesy and respect my wife deserves, while also honoring the friendship between us. We reached an understanding and agreed to resolve the issue amicably.

However, despite this agreement, my wife continues to express concerns about the harassment she has endured from the Senate President.

I have unwavering faith in my wife’s loyalty and am fully committed to our marriage, which is grounded in love, compassion, and mutual respect. I would never trade her for anything, as she is the greatest joy of my life.

I now respectfully urge the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Senate President to treat my beloved wife with the respect and dignity she truly deserves while the relevant authorities and the court determine the underlying issues.
