| Quote: | I have never had more than one wife at a time although I don't put that out of the realm of possibility.
In marriage, both the man and the woman are free to live their lives in accordance with Scripture. If a man sees fit to take another wife he may. As in all decisions he should seek wise counsel and consider the consequences.
A woman typically has more freedoms than she exercises in her marriage, however it is adultery if a woman has a carnal relationship with a man other than her husband and it is fornication if she even associates with another man without the permission of her husband. A man is head of the woman and this should not be taken lightly.
For many men it is not a choice of whether to take another wife. It is a matter of physical and spiritual necessity. To be clear, it is not a sin to take an additional wife to "satisfy" ones own needs. Marriage was invented by God in order to satisfy the needs of man. For Adam there was found no suitable helpmeet, so God created woman. Now, in order to avoid immorality it is important that no preacher deny a man this right to have his own God given desires satisfied in a way that is appropriate before God. This means that in order to avoid immorality a man should not be discouraged from taking an additional wife that lives with him or even a concubine, a wife who does not live with him.
A man must consider that he must be part of his varied households in sufficient amounts of time to prevent his sons from lacking appropriate male role models. If a man does not take this into consideration he is risking that his sons may turn out to be a homosexuals. Let's not be irresponsible with our families. We are called upon to go forth and multiply but not in such a way that we will cause more problems than we solve.
God bless your families.

Doesn't The Bible Teach That Sex Belongs Only In Monogamous Marriage?
Take out your Bible and show us where! Traditional Christian teaching wants you to believe this. But if you search the scriptures and understand the original Hebrew/Greek texts, the history of biblical interpretation and the influence of non-Christian thought on Christian tradition, you will discover you have been sold a lie all these years. We will provide you the historical background and share from scripture what was really taught by God and Christ. We suggest that responsible non-monogamy, loving intimacy and other-centered sexual pleasure sharing is much more in line with Christ's teaching that love is the greatest commandment than the repressive traditional teachings which make rules based on false foundations.

Two wives telling me that they have headaches when I want sex is probably worse than just having one.

| Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2007 3:00 am Post subject: Great book about Polygamy |
|
|
I just finished reading Daughter of the Saints by Dorothy Allred Solomon. Her family was/is Fundamentalist Mormon. She left the fray and wrote a great book about the history and culture of polygamous Mormons. Her family's been polygamous for 4 generations and she's 28 of 48 children. The book's very interesting and well written.
If you're a Big Love fan (which is how I found this message board - Tracian posted something on Big Love's message board on HBO.com), then Daughter of the Saints will give you a lot of insight into Nikki's family, life on the compound, and the Grant's feud with the Greens. |
