It will be the right time and the right person!!! During my singleness, I like to think of it as God preparing me for my spouse so that I will truly be a Crown to His Head, honor him, a wise woman builds her house, prefering him, a capable, intelligent, and virtuous woman.......

Christy, Glad to see other woman have spoken!!! And I don't think you speak for a small minority, but a hugh majority!!! Debi

You are so right!! :clap: But it is interesting to see how they justify polygamy. It truly amazes me that they look for justification of the flesh. I agree, men have a hard enough time with one woman....:scratch: :D Debi

What this all amounts to that Polygamist, in order to justify polygamy use a lot of "what if" situation....ie, what if this word was used instead of the other word. You have practice so much as to what Paul "should" have stated that you leave much room to speculate "what" he was saying...

Tyreth, Can you tell me why Paul did not address these issues since you possed the question to me? I did answer, didn't I? Did Paul write "husband of one wife" to stop polygyny? If so, why didn't he mention that "Elders shall not be sodomists" or "Elders shall not be homosexual", or any...

Why do you say Abraham didn't have two wives? Sarah his wife gave him her maid who he went in to, and had the child Ishmael by her. Genesis 16:3. My translation says, "...and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife" I also understand this caused great bitterness and regrate in Sarah after...

Did Paul write "husband of one wife" to stop polygyny? If so, why didn't he mention that "Elders shall not be sodomists" or "Elders shall not be homosexual", or any number of other sins? Why did he mention that they should not be polygynists among the many other sins he condemned? Why is this...

I think you and Don both are trying to confuse me. :)

Don, I am mixed up in my quotes?!!1 You stated " you cannot disregard one of our arguments saying it is man's logic and continue to use logic to explain......that is contridictory and irrational" Yes, I can disregard it because I don't apply logic to the written word because I am not in...

I agree that "one" means "one" and not "first". Paul was not counting wives he was making a statement as to how many wives.

lighten up Don, It is just an expression for loosen up. Debi

I was responding to Don. :) You know Don, He likes to take his whip out and lash the little woman :) Debi BTW, Don I take no offense to what you say, I find it all quite humorous.

Why can I not use logic, polygamist use logic to validate their position. Logic= Why did God Allow Moses, David, Abraham to have more than one wife? Why did God not reprimand them for having more than one wife? Why did God give David more than one wife? Is this not logic? reasoning...

Don, It is not for me to Ask God Why? It is for me to obey God's Written Word. You want to make it subject regarding polygamy, when it is clear that man should have ONE wife. Now, if you me to guess, here is, man was practicing polygamy against God's ordain for man's plan for man and woman and...

Don, Did I step on your toes, yet once again!!! I just mentioned the arguments that I have been given by polygamist. To simply chose the definition to use is changing the scriptures. Or do you not see it that way? apparently not, because you should to use whichever term you decide in...

hotarugari This statement is not scriptural. God makes our desires line up with His desire for our lives. Marriage is symbolic of the relationship that Chirst has for the church. If God says that man is not meant to be alone and the desire for marriage is in our hearts, then God will...

Don the scriptures have been given before......many times. Polygamist choose to twist the scriptures and say that "man" decided to use "mia" in the verse as one instead of first. I believe "mia" is also used when Jesus was praying and the transfiguration of Moses and Elisa appeared and Peter...

Did Paul not judge the Corinthian church because they were christians accept sin as the normal. I see that David is used often as God's consent to polygamy. The purpose for David was higher than his marriage arrangements. Are you not missing the entire context of the story and using what is...

God help you all for causing your brothers to stumble. God did not ordain multilply wives. Using Moses and Abraham is not acceptable because it is never mentioned they had more than one wife at a time. How do you explain that it is mentioned that Solomon had more wives and David too and it...
