When Christianity
contradicts God there is
something drastically wrong.
This verse says God was a HUSBAND to
THEM;
Jer 31:32
husband to them,
says
Jehovah;
Some Christians say God had no wives but what part of husband or them is difficult to understand?
Oh, and do not hastily conclude that God was
married to Israel's fathers, that would make God a homosexual or
homoerotic,
which is not the case.
Read Ez.23 then read
Jeremiah 31:31-32.
"Them" in Jeremiah 31 refers to the two kingdoms of Israel seen as two sisters who both bore God children. This is all figurative but God does not engage in figurative wickedness.
"Christ only has one Bride", the monogamy only traditionalists cry but this makes the monogamy only position worse. Most Christians would acknowledge that Christ of the NT is Jehovah of the OT so it is Christ embracing the two sister Kingdoms of Israel as His wives in Jeremiah 31 and the Christians today as well?
Oh dear, God's own Word would thus ascribe about three wives for Christ, the two sisters of Jeremiah and "the church" of the NT. This tally does not including the New Jerusalem which is called "the bride, the Lamb's wife".
Then Jesus said to the Jews who
believed on Him, If you continue in My Word, you are My disciples
indeed. And you shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you
free.
John 8:31-32
Christian, we are not encouraging anyone to practice polygyny, we are defending the truth of it. Many men do not love their wives as Scripture demands, however, there are husbands who do and with their wife's agreement are opening their doors to the lonely widows and single mothers of faith. Polygyny is an action of love and for love, never forced.
Consenting adults are free before God to make marriage choices which only offend those who are heavily indoctrinated with the monogamy only eisogesis which abounds in Christian and cultural circles.
The rapid growth in polygamy accepting Christians is due to the infallibility of God's Word which proves monogamy only a falsehood. This growth improves the options for the Christian single and single with children ladies out there. On one dating site there are 310 men and 849 couples available for consideration for the 257 single ladies. Now that's a positive thing, these ladies do not need to take the leftovers but can consider Christian single men or especially Christian families where the husband has a proven track record affirmed by his wife or wives who are ready and willing to accept and love another lady in the household.
We have been accused of hurting the Body of Christ which really means, for whatever reasons, the subject offends the one making that accusation. Truth never hurt any saint of God and since when did a true lover of the Lord and His Word reject any subject found within it's pages?
The need is great, and praise the Lord many Christians are now discarding the usual traditional but non-Biblical arguments against this lifestyle. Below are many links which will help demonstrate that this is true.

survey of Poly relationship
A man fathers many children but it's only an oddity because he didn't' marry all the mothers.
Here is a TV commercial
designed to break down bigotry and prejudice in certain areas but avoids
the remotest suggestion that a family could also be one Dad and three
Moms. I guess "so many combinations" excludes polygyny and "it doesn't
matter" if Gays and Lesbians have families but it does matter if
Polygynists have families.

Who cares, he wasn't a polygamists anyway so it doesn't matter right?
Men can have as many affairs as the chose, just don't marry more than
one it offends the religious right.
Media bias
All polygynous families are offended when certain networks banner "the
face of polygamy" when they want to trumpet some child or wife abuse?
See the TV said polygamy was bad for my
health. These same media moguls are hypnotically silent when they
telecast the same abuse on a much wider scale in monogamous families.
Ever seen;
Monogamous parents convicted of incest
or
Monogamous Pastor's wife shoots her monogamous husband.
Of course not, it's not newsworthy and who wants to poke the
accusative finger at the majority.
Most child sex offenders are monogamous mothers and fathers.
Most child pornography sites are run by monogamists.
Most rapists are monogamous.
Marriage structure does not produce evil within families. Evil people in some marriages produce evil, and social services departments are hard pressed to deal with all the abuse in monogamous families. Let's be serious, who was the worst sinner? Adam who by disobedience opened the door for sin and death to enter the world or Lamech who was only a sinner because of Adam's disobedience? Which is worse, Adam the monogamist or Lamech the polygamists? Silly illogical questions I know but makes us think, yes? Oh, and please note, not once did God condemn Lamech but the Word sure levels failure against Adam. Perhaps we should argue that polygamy is better because Lamech was the less sinner? Stupid, but hey, maybe it will make someone think.
Marriage structure does not produce good or evil, people do. Some monogamous people are evil, some polygamous people are evil and some single people are evil.
It's time to stop numbing and dumbing the faithful and the Word of God in our attempts to argue against polygamy.
