Agreed! But sir, David had more than two, Batseba, Abigail,Mikael. Solomon had 700, if he didn't worship a strange god, God wouldn't have frown at the number of his wives.
David and Solomon are not a perfect example of CHRISTian, Jesus Christ is,

David and Solomon predate Christianity by about 1000 years

Yet the linage of David continued with Solomon through Bathsheba.

God can change things as He please, for example Jabez was curse by his parents, but prayer change the curse. That the lineage continue through Solomon doesn't mean God sanctions polygamous.

Anyways, you got me here. JESUS is the role model we Christian's should strive to be like

Yet all of the people that are the fathers of faith were polygamous, god has a strange way of showing he disapproves of polygamy.

Marriage is very cheap that time, and the Jews are very stubborn In breaking the commandment of God.

There wasn't any commandment against marrying more than 1 nor was there any commandment against having mistresses.

Christian's always conveniently forget or pretend to forget DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 25 VERSES 5-10.
undecided

5 If brothers are living together and one of them dies without a son, his widow must not marry outside the family. Her husband's brother shall take her and marry her and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her. 6 The first son she bears shall carry on the name of the dead brother so that his name will not be blotted out from Israel. 7 However, if a man does not want to marry his brother's wife, she shall go to the elders at the town gate and say, "My husband's brother refuses to carry on his brother's name in Israel. He will not fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to me." 8 Then the elders of his town shall summon him and talk to him. If he persists in saying, "I do not want to marry her," 9 his brother's widow shall go up to him in the presence of the elders, take off one of his sandals, spit in his face and say, "This is what is done to the man who will not build up his brother's family line." 10 That man's line shall be known in Israel as The Family of the Unsandaled.

You will never change. Always jumping all over the place. No one can place you. Are you a rat or a bat?

You don't Question your owner!

The Bible is the Manual to guide you.

Matthew 19:3-8
3 The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.


We don't own ourselves! Someone owns us! We can't live outside the way our owner told us to..

Questioning Him is irrelevant.. we are nothing but mere creatures..
The lowself esteem is strong with this one.
