Which is kind of what the article says. If you actually read it.

(Full disclosure: I believe the Bible supports monogamy)

God Said "He made them male and female" not male and females. That is The Law.

Amazingly people are not afraid. Hmm, people just love death.

subsidywise18:
N.B This is posted in the wake of the Yul Edochie scandal and the number of christians who defend him on the grounds that 'polygamy is in the bible'. I don't necessarily agree with all that is written here, but it is printed for persepctive.

Yes, polygamy in the Bible exists—but what did Jesus think about it? Did he contradict it?...

Christ clearly stated The Law that "He made them male and female"

And not male and females!

And most especially as He did not talk more than this.

A word it said, is all the wise need to hear.

AntiChristian:
Jesus and Paul never for once talked about Polygamy. The popular Matthew verse was as a result of a question asked Jesus on divorce.

The record clearly shows that Jesus and Paul said one man and one wife. The record shows it.

maiquel:
Sista, I believe you can make your point without threatening me with hell cos monogamy is not a measure for who will enter into heaven either.

But certainly law breaking disqualifies a person from entering God's Kingdom.

maiquel:
I didn't see that.

Go read the story of Abraham, you would see that after Sarah died, God never spoke to him and he must noticed it for we see him put away the wives before his death.

AntiChristian:
What errors? Didn't same God give David more wives?

1) See yourself, my Answer was on Abraham and now you have shifted to David.

2) Did I ever say that I was not on your threads?

You already know my stand and we know you are looking for every way to justify your desire that God permits the possession of wives because you did not see Him punish Lamech, the first man to break this Law, forgetting that we see that He did not punish his grandfather Cain, the first murderer also. YET MURDER IS PROHIBITED BY LAW.

The guy first took back the car he bought for her before she started fighting to get hers back.

Warm regards.

Okay! Pleasant Regards

maiquel:
The God of Abraham (the father of many nations and a polygamist is still the God of today...right?

It is not a command, nothing like disobey at your peril.

You did see that God stopped talking to Abraham and that Abraham noticed it and put away all his errors?

helinues:
Why are some of you religious people so intolerant.

Can't you engage with him maturely without name calling?

Many of us have engaged him in the past thinking he was normal but after seeing his picture and things he says, we all came to reasonable conclusion that he is mad.

Look at his latest statements "death is a human construct"

Is this normal?

Nezzjnr:
Lol

I asked someone else... Not you though

Thought you wanted to know!

Gointo:
that means many didnt reaceive the gospel in full.,

People do not like receiving God, even the Israelites themselves did not agree to be bound with Him.

Gointo:
so you mean holiness is about the fear of hell...
thats not the fullness of the gospel,and thats where the problem lies,
lol,they dont fear God but they terrified of hell...shaking my head.

You are the saying what I never said. All I said is up there and you have cast it aside to say what I did not say.

Gointo:
bro you confusing romantic stuff with love...GOD IS LOVE.whoever have love in him.has God in him.you can only express love under the canopy of God's love...

Isn't romance in nature and spirit the motion and expression and declaration of love?

When a person is giving romance, is the person not giving pleasure?

Is the giving pleasure to another person an evil thing?

Is it not displeasure and unpleasantness that is the bad thing?

Gointo:
Its takes the fear of God,and being born of the spirit that nothing wont happen in such compromising situation.lol the power of the flesh,better tell him keep off entanglement until marriage is in view in nothing more than two years time..,(just an advice).

What you said is in deed True.

However, This is another opportunity people have in Finding God and learning about Him as well as learning about themselves.

FOR GOD LOVES, LOVE. AND LOVE IS GOOD, SOOO VERY GOOD.

For in here, you have an opportunity to choose a greatly good future, (if you learn all that you are supposed to) or you shall enter into one of the several holes of a future full of despairs and failures and regrets and "how I wishes".

Love is an opportunity to have and find God and also save your life from death.

Love is one of the many helps God has given the children of men to save them from death which is why everyone has fallen into love.

But the world says and teaches "do not love".

Nezzjnr:


Well you are right.

In the sense that they're both having romantic affairs... It's bad ryt

Romance is about GOODNESS OF LOVE OR THE LOVE OF AND FOR GOODNESS.

And Goodness dictates that you do not give dishonor, shame or ridicule or pain to any person, in line with THE LAW (Thou shalt do no wrong or evil thing).

So, the question is how and why therefore can you the hurt and wound the person you love?

Love is Good and always good and must only and always do only The Good.

So, read, watch a movie together, sleep in each others rooms BUT IN ALL THY DOINGS DO NOT DO ANY EVIL THING TO THY PARTNER.

AND THE 2 OF YOU ALREADY KNOW THE EVIL THINGS WHICH YOU CAN DO TO EACH OTHER.

PastorMIsBack:
Yep

I say you are wrong.

Gointo:
There were days when the church could club men into obedience by preaching Hell to them,but that day as long passed.The world has outgrown it.

And that was when the world started to burn faster and faster than ever and the peoples crying more than ever as the Bible fore-said.

sonmvayina:
First and foremost, death is a human construct.

Secondly we are eternal beings..

Thirdly, we have been coming to this earth and going.

You want to get out this vicious cycle of life and death, read the book...
"Coming back" the science of reincarnation.

I am not coming back to this stupid planet again, with people like Dtruthspeaker, MaxInDHouse, Kobojunkie...who even took their leash ?

Dis madman don find fone again come nairaland today.

Dorwadora:
In your own word sir, Satan has walked on this earth, manifested his evil, hence his identity can not be mistaken. He is who he is.

But who is God? Who is the authentic God?

You have been discerning Truths in this world of lies since you grew up, so, I know that if you truly wanted to find out Who Truly is God out of all lot proclamation out there, if you truly cared enough, you would have filtered Him out of them all.

There is No Advertisement or Marketing and Promotion here.

Inspite of the hindrances, we all truly know how to find out that which is TRUE, if we want to.

Kobojunkie:
Are you certain that I am the one deceiving people here?
Does the above not declare Jesus to be the bright morning star?

See your twisted self!

He said

"The King James version is the best and standard version.

JESUS::: Morning Star or the bright morning star
SATAN::: Son of the morning"

So, you have not said any valid thing.

Dorwadora:
...I'm not trying to justify Satan's existence but I'm trying to know why majority don't agure his supremacy.... Like the way Christians will say Jesus is lord, the way and the truth. No one see the father except through me. And the way Muslims will say Allah is the greatest.

Why is no one saying

No our own devil is the real deal

No... Our devil hell fire is authentic than Religion B own

Clearly evil is not the problem, as the Bible said for the world loves evil, IT IS THE GOOD, WHO IS THE ENEMY OF THE WORLD. And therefore, the evil needs to pervert and make many varieties of "THE GOOD".

Remember, because people are evil, therefore confusion is advantageous to the evil.

Hence, their must be many God(s) so that people who lack knowledge will die in their evil and love for evil.

Dorwadora:
I
...Is it that Satan is even more authentic par say?..

Does it not clearly tell you that every race has seen him and had an encounter with him?

Dorwadora:
I
It's a common knowledge that different religion represent different God

And correction!

It is not different God but identification of God in and by their respective languages and ancestry.

exCHRISTIAN:
Hated it with passion...

As I said earlier, your hatred will not stop life and living being well and sweet for Christians.

exCHRISTIAN:
Hated it with passion...

And this is the most important confession.

We all know that people who love doing bad things can never ever like the Bible for it is the Only Thing which directly tells wicked people that they are WICKED and that they shall suffer and be punished for their wickedness. Therefore, they do not like it and can never like it and will never like it, as you have proven.

So, even if there are conflicts with the reports exactly as the type we would see in the future when someone reports that Lagos State gave 3 days public holiday in May 2022 and another says it is 2 days holiday, we all understand that no 2 reports are exactly the same but they are the same in substance which is "Lagos gave a public holiday in May 2022."

It's as simple as that.

socialmediaman:
This is true but most people may not understand what trust means so let me break it down in lay man terms.

In simple terms, if a wife gives her husband something on Trust, it means she’s giving it to him so he can use it to take care of her or both of them (husband included). It’s the same way uncles would “dash” us money those days and we give those money to our parents on Trust. Yes we’re authorizing them to use the money for the benefit of us (us here sometimes can mean us and them included)

This makes perfect sense because ideally, the man takes care of the wife, so when she brings in resources, she can hand it to him on trust, for the benefit of the family.

For further reference, check the definition of trust based on the Appeal Court verdict on M. A. JOLUGBO & ANOR v. MRS O. A. AINA & ANOR (2016)
https://lawcarenigeria.com/m-a-jolugbo-anor-v-mrs-o-a-aina-anor-2016/

This is where intention/consent rules which is based on the fact that it is known that women do not give absolutely, exactly like Tonto Dike taken back the car she once bought for her previous husband.

illicit:
Nothing

Just the first thing my eyes caught while registering

Na lie, your Truth spoke up. You have an attraction for bad and ill causing things.

exCHRISTIAN:
Hmmmm

Pls this is a real Noise from bible reader

Says the one shouting "I hate Christianity,"

helinues:
Spiritual realm or imaginary realm. I can't just imagine how many people the pastors are scaring with all this hell or heaven story. I used to buy them when I was small, any small thing you are going to hell fire if you do this or that.. Haba

Make una tell us the location

The word "scaring" already tells you. But I remember the way bandits and kidnappers can stop scaring you is to never listen to the news. Just do as you please and whatever happens, happens, after all you do not need to live your life being scared.

Do like the ostrich and bury your head in the sand.

exCHRISTIAN:
Christianity again.

I already left the us*less faith.

So let me gerraout


............m


Btw

According To The Bible Jesus Went To Hell.

And do we suffer from your real eyesation that you were never a Christian?

Would our blessings reduce because you left?

You people are very very funny O.

Jashub:
Your question should be on the existence of heaven , not who went there.

If someone went there or came down from there, then it proves it exists.

And Some One did come down from there and we have 2 who went up to heaven, so, it exists.

helinues:
Who don go heaven or hell come back before?

It was foretold that Someone was going to come down from God.

The Person Whom we call Jesus Christ fulfilled this and did come down from heaven, spoke to the dead and ascended back to heaven in full view of witnesses.

And, He told you about heavenly things using earthly things yet you refuse to listen Him, nothing else will do.

So stop disturbing us and leave your life as you plan to.

helinues:
At least with my little understanding about life, the planets, galaxies, universes littered around, heaven or hell does not exist. That should be logical.

Where could it be Within our solar system? Our neighbors like Kepler 16 B, in our Milky way Galaxy? Andromeda Galaxy? Or beyond unseen universes?

Let's be civil with the discussion

I think you are opening yourself to ridicule for it has always being stated that all things spirit can only be fully seen after doing the phenomenon we call death. So it is never easily physically.

At least you have experienced heaven and hell on earth, that should tell you all you need.

Jashub:
In my own opinion, they are in a dimension that is spaceless, timeless and does not have matter. In essence ,it is not in a place that is physical .

It would be physical when you drop this physical you know to commence using the physical which we used to call spirit.
