It isnt clearly condemned, but it isnt Gods perfect will. If God wanted Adam to marry more than one wife, He would have created more than one woman for him. thats why in Matthew 19 Jesus said some of these thinds God allowed because of the hardness of your hearts, but in the beginning it was not so. Besides, to know how something will end, look at the origin. The first man that married more than one wife in the Bible was Lamech, a descendant of Cain, a seed of the serpent, an offspring of Satan himself. whatever comes from that lineage cannot be godly.

Let's not argue on presumptions my dear. Can you tell me anybody in the Bible that God punished or condemned because of polygamy.

Can you tell me where there is a definite injunction against polygamy in the Bible.

Cain Killed Abel, whom did he marry. Who are his descendants today.

Some people are the seeds of people that God personally chose as His own yet they turned out to be evil e.g.Absalom. So were the seeds of evil people yet they turned out to be gods favorite e.g. Jonathan son of Saul.

eripecs:
Yes. In the beginning God made only male and female.

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.

1king11:1-8, Deut 17:17, lev 18:18,Deut21:15,1tim3:2:12, titus 1:6, 1cor7:1-16, eph 5:25-33....do you still need more scriptures?

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

But wait ooo. Is there any where in the Bible where marrying more than one wife if condemned. Just asking, no insults please

Recently, my car has been gasping for breathe.its a 2000 Camry. I have had it serviced, changed sparkplugs and plug wires, even cleaned the throttle body with the injector cleaner.

Still, when I rev it jerks and It does so when in stand still traffic,even worse with the AC on. Takes time to pick up when I accelerate.

My mechanic said that I should be 'managing' it like that. Its the worst thing i have heard,sound s like he is out of ideas. I have not wound down the windows since like 2 years.

I need help o

I have had same experience. Just buy a a complete set of Belgium high tension wire for the plugs. You probably must have bought a weak brand new one. Those new ones easily get ruptured and it will make the engine to jerk.that car is a very reliable car if u know the tips and tricks

Ok

Hi an. Hope all the billionaires are sexually pure. And don't come telling me everything is not about money. Bro in this present generation everything is about money o. If I lie ask tithe collecting and private jet flying pastors. A poor man has a poor soul and a poor soul is a dead soul.
If you are poor that means you have been defeated on earth and will most likely be defeated in heaven.
God made beautiful women so that humans will appreciate his efforts and enjoy them.
Read your Bible very well many who were God's friends were sexually active.
Abraham committed adultery, Jacob fvcked two sisters,
David usually chill with the finest virgins fetched from the farthest part of israel whenever he's in depression.
Solomon na Jack hammer.

Jesus best friend was Mary Magdalene whom he had saved from mob action having been caught committing adultery . Rachab was a prostitute but made it to the matrilineal genealogy of Jesus. Even 2 sisters had to Bleep their father sometime in the old testament to keep the generation going.
At a certain time God asked a highly revered and innocent prophet to go and marry a prostitute.
Chai. His ways are not the ways of man.

God never punished any of the above mentioned and many more.
