Dtruthspeaker:You should have shown the verses where Moses divorced his wife na instead of all this cho Cho Cho! And does your God give laws to support a condition which is sinful? As in the "If" condition above? Did He permit polygamy with the "if" or not? |

MaxInDHouse:GOD already spoke openly of it several places, but because you chose your self doctrines above the Word of GOD, you rejected GOD'S Word. Do you know more than Abraham? Are you more intelligent or know GOD more than David? Do you know more than Moses? So don't bring any twist and turns. Show me where GOD called marrying more than one wife a sin. I know you can never ever find it, hence your jumping around. |

MaxInDHouse:What led to divorce was not stated. And it's not only hatred that could lead to divorce. You're just guessing! He treated all his wife equally as much as he can! And he had as much wife as Allah permitted for him. He's not the same as us so Allah gave him more than we get! The question is for you to tell us how Jesus is the model man for a Christian marriage than Adam! |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by MaxInDHouse(m): 7:55am On Jul 12, 2025 |
Kayberg:YES! Kayberg:God never told anyone to marry another wife while his wife is still alive all these people did what pleases them but God allowed them to learn from experience so if you can't find anywhere God said a woman can't marry more men there is nothing to argue!  |

AntiChristian:Ọmọ Muhammad can't be a model if the number of wives he had is haram o! |

MaxInDHouse:You know more than Abraham, Moses, David, yet you wwllow in ignorance! Oga shattap. If GOD had been against it, would GOD not had warned them? Would GOD had told David He would have given him more and more? To even claim to know more than Moses, a man who talked mouth to mouth, face to face with GOD shows you're just another deceiver out here. |

Kayberg:Ọmọ i'm much more knowledgeable than Abraham and the rest who lived until the time of John the baptist it's the first century disciples of Christ that knows more than i do because they saw Christ the one through whom we can all know the likes, dislikes and qualities of God! John 1:18 So don't be surprised that i know better than all those who lived before the time Jesus walked this planet! Matthew 11:11-12 |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by Kayberg: 9:58am On Jul 12, 2025 |
MaxInDHouse:You ain't making sense abeg. Go and rest. You should claim to know GOD more than Ezekiel, Elijah, Elisha, and others. You that is very far from GOD claiming to know GOD. 🤣🤣🤣 If you know GOD you won't contradict GOD. |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by MaxInDHouse(m): 10:57am On Jul 12, 2025 |
Kayberg:I don't know your religion but from what i quoted it shows you have no knowledge about the Bible. I said from Abel till John the baptist i'm knowledgeable than all of them joined together according to Jesus Christ! Matthew 11:11 So say something else!  |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by AntiChristian(op): 11:09am On Jul 12, 2025 |
MaxInDHouse:He represents the law maker so he knows what's haram than you! It's like Moses reading "Thou shall not commit adultery" while still marrying more than one! |

Abraham who lost his mind instead of focusing on the promise God made to him that he will be the father of nations but he fell for the trap his wife set for him. Sarah has been nursing the idea secretly in her mind that the fault of their inability to have a child could be Abraham and not herself she wanted to use her slave girl to prove that Abraham is the one who can't pregnate a woman but God surprised her and the slave girl got pregnant! Later when God reaffirms His promises Abraham told God "Yeah now i have seen the fulfillment, Ishmael" then God declared that He has no business with the slave girl's child because His promises is to be fulfilled by the child that will be born by Sarah surely Ishmael too will survive but he is not the promised child! Genesis 17:18-21 So learn by studying God's word not just reading it. Abraham listened to his wives voice when he is desperate for a child but when the same woman demanded that the slave girl go away with her child Abraham remembered to report the matter to God who now told him "Did you ask me before sleeping with the slave girl? Is it not your wife's voice you heard? Guy obey her voice this time too jọọ i don't have any business with the slave girl" Genesis 21:12 |

AntiChristian:Good! So Moses is not a good example just like your Muhammad! |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by AntiChristian(op): 11:32am On Jul 12, 2025 |
MaxInDHouse:If Abraham lost his mind then Jehovah must have approved that don't you think? Jehovah conscented to the fertilization of Ishmael in Hagar's womb! I know you JW so much hate Abraham as i have witness a JW spilling this same excreta while preaching before! Abraham listened to his wife but why didn't Jehovah warn him? Wasn't Angels sent to Lot to flee Sodom but Jehovah forgot to send Angel to warn Abraham not to sleep with Hagar? |

AntiChristian:I told you that God wants us to learn from their experience since they can't know why it's wrong in polygamy! |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by Dtruthspeaker: 2:34pm On Jul 12, 2025 |
AntiChristian:It is you who should have shown the verses where you see Moses having 2 wives in house instead of trying to change the argument |

Kayberg:Please stop acting the ef."If" is used to indicate abnormalty eg "if your wife cheats" or "if your phone falls". All these show us that the normal is that the phone does fall everyday and should not fall everyday/that the wife does not cheat everyday. Which means that the normal is that your wife does not cheat which is why people are married and together for years before cheating (the abnormal if) comes to spoil it. |

Dtruthspeaker:You ascertain "if" as abnormalty. This is "if" from the Dictionary: if uk/ɪf/ us/ɪf/ Etymology From Middle Englishif, yif, yef, from Old Englishġif(“if”), from Proto-West Germanic*jabu, *jabē, from Proto-Germanic*jabai(“when, if”). Cognate with Scotsgif(“if, whether”), Saterland Frisianaf, of(“if, whether”), West Frisianoft(“whether”), Dutchof(“or, whether, but”), Middle Low Germanef, if, af, of ("if; whether"; > German Low German of), Germanob(“if, whether”), Icelandicef(“if”). Conjunction if Supposing that, assuming that, in the circumstances that; used to introduce a condition that may be (or prove to be) either true or false. If it rains, I'll get wet. I'll do it next week, if I have time. Fetch me a cold beer if there's one in the fridge. (computing) A keyword that invokes conditional processing: in the event that a given condition is true, execute the given statement(s) (otherwise execute other statements). if A then B else C Supposing that; used with past or past perfect subjunctive to indicate a counterfactual or hypothetical condition. If she hadn't told me, I wouldn't know. If I were you, I wouldn't go there alone. If the Moon were made of cheese, astronauts would never need to go hungry. (usuallyhyperbolic) Even if; even in the circumstances that. I wouldn't marry you if you were the last man on earth. Considering the fact that; given that; introducing a condition that is known to be true. The drain's blocked — and if the drain's blocked, the water won't flow. When; whenever; every time that. If you heat water to 100° C, it boils. If it rains, it pours. Although; used to introduce a concession. He was a great friend, if a little stingy at the bar. She won her team's admiration, if not the award, for her performance. (sometimesproscribed) Whether; used to introduce a noun clause, an indirect question, that functions as the direct object of certain verbs. I don't know if I want to go or not. Introducing a relevance conditional. I have leftover cake if you want some. Usage notes Specifically a subordinating conjunction. Some usage critics recommend that if not be used to mean whether, since the distinction can remove ambiguity, as in the following example: Tell me if you can see her. (If the addressee can see her, then he or she must let the speaker know) Tell me whether you can see her. (The speaker wants to know which instance is true: either the addressee's ability or inability to see her) This distinction is further encouraged because, traditionally, if cannot always be used in place of whether. For instance, if the noun clause acts as the subject of the sentence or an object of a preposition, the word is usually whether. Examples: We like to talk about whether classical music is better than jazz. Whether you like today’s weather does not matter. Another difference between if and whether is with the use of or not. The sentences I don't know whether or not I passed or I don't know whether I passed or not are both correct The sentence I don't know if I passed or not is correct, but I don't know if or not I passed is incorrect Alternative forms eef (representing various accents) ifen, iffen, if'n (dialectal) Noun if (plural ifs) (informal) An uncertainty, possibility, condition, doubt etc. The board can't approve this project; there are too many ifs. Where is the "abnormality" here? "If" speaks of certainty, not abnormalty. You should know I'm not in the category of people you brainwash.  |

Dtruthspeaker:Moses was never a house man! So that your argument is flawed! |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by AntiChristian(op): 4:44am On Jul 13, 2025 |
Maximus692:The way your Jehovah behaves is somehow... He creates people with laws and leaves them to learn by themselves! God simply permitted it. |
| Re: God Said "If He Marries another Woman..." Polygamy 101 by MaxInDHouse(m): 6:47am On Jul 13, 2025 |
AntiChristian:The highlighted is where you missed it! God never created people with laws otherwise you can quote the LAWS God gave Adam and Eve in the beginning when He created them. It was after their rebellion that God drove Adam and Eve out of the garden He prepared for them {Genesis 3:22-24} and from that time God allowed humans to live by conscience without any laws for more than a thousand years before He later searched throughout the earth to pick Abraham who stood out as a loyal man with dignity. The laws were given to the Israelites in another 500+ years after Abraham and in those laws what God provided was all about love for God and for neighbor {Mark 12:29-30} God never included in His laws for a man to marry more than one wife He left that for the descendants of Jacob to use their own discernment after all they knew what Abraham and Jacob their ancestors experienced as a result of polygamy! |

AntiChristian:Off point. See silly distraction and diversion. No one said Moses was a house man. So you nothing reasonable to say. |

Kayberg:All these excess talk for the simple word "if" which we use everyday? Aside. In all these long and unnecessary talk is the if in the bible used in any of these manner? No! Have I not already given the examples depicting the "if" used in the bible which you did not contest? So it is a void and useless trying to raise the several scenarios in which "if" is used, as a means of rebuttal especially as none of them fall into the context and meaning of that Law. Which is why you are talking long long talk on how if can be used without addressing the Law. So off point. |
