ONE RESULT OF FORBIDDING MARRIAGE TO MEN

Polygyny Is Morally Right

Polygyny (polygamy) is morally right as it was a product of sound wisdom when society faced a terrible imbalance in the gender ratio. Who would like to see his sister or daughter unmarried for life or be a prey to casual marriage practitioners? Hence having only the option to sniff the married life for a while and then return to permanent loneliness. The greedy modern man likes it this way. The crowd of women who have once tasted marriage between one month and seven years is swelling by the day. They will have to live the rest of their lives without a husband, while the men endlessly taste the married life with one prey after the other; most of them ending as bedmates. One once told me that he had tasted up to eighty women. Mere tasting of the honey is now the game. Who cares for a permanent deal? Who is victimized here?
Now, what I am saying is that at any time there is this gender ratio imbalance, polygyny (polygamy) is intellectually fine, it is not against civilization. In fact opposing it in such a situation is sadism. Are we taking along sadism in our modern civilization? The only challenge, which monogamy also faces, is having responsible men accepting marriage. Responsible men should not be programmed to hate polygyny (polygamy), which the current circumstance requires, while irresponsible men take charge of the most precious human institution. Polygyny (polygamy) cannot be for every man in any generation because marriage is not for heartless or lazy people, how much more polygyny (polygamy).

GOD ALLOWS POLYGYNY WHEREIN A MAN IS ALLOWED TO HAVE SEVERAL WIVES -this is very clear from the Holy Scriptures. If Polygyny was a doctrine of demons then Abraham, King David, Moses would have died from stoning since the payment for serious sexual sins such as ADULTERY was DEATH BY STONING!

IF POLYGYNY WAS A SIN AGAINST GOD and a doctrine of demon…God would not have given His Laws on Plural Marriage such as Exodus 21:10…WHAT GOD DID NOT FORBID LET NO MAN FORBID!

The DOCTRINE OF DEMON is trying to teach and practice TEACHINGS THAT GO BEYOND THE WORDS OF GOD ON MARRIAGE-such as disallowing a MARRIED man TO add & MARRY ANOTHER WOMAN-this is one of the doctrine of demons that those who do not know the Laws of God and their Bible are being duped by false teachers to practice!

One doctrine of demons says that a man and a woman should not marry. But, God ordained the pattern of marriage as between one man and one woman (Gen. 1:27; Gen. 2:21-25; 1 Cor. 7:2; Titus 1:6). Any teaching that forbids God’s fixed pattern of marriage is a doctrine of demons. 1 Tim. 4:1 warns believers not to follow deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons.
