Disclosing Biblical marriage views

You don’t know what you are talking about.
Many of us, myself included, have been excommunicated for simply believing in polygyny.
The belief itself is considered dangerous.
A man who has any conversations about it might spread the idea to others and it could get out of control. They fear that.
How come I never did get excomunicated
Because I practically never talk about this.

Reminder of old banger by me:


Whole thread and real problem is societal change, not what Bible says.

Just preaching will massively destabilize existing marriages and since people really don't like losing their families, they will resist. Only chance this has any chance of working is by implementing keeping existimg marriages program and keep societal status program at same time by whole church.

Interestingly, how people complain about lack of Christian obedience here, while putting zero thought into prodiving advice how to talk with wife existing her starting divorce.
 
Lesbian culture is a bit strange at times. One day a lesbian couple who are friends of mine, and who own a florist shop, gave me a red rose as a gift for one of my wives. Interestingly, they've never met my wives. 🤔
Did they knew you were married?

Anyway, lesbians don't exist. If they exist there wouldn't be would be following articles:

Your hubris is rarely matched with real world application. As a pastor who is currently doing weekly men's only teachings on the topic of polygny and the real world application of it in our lives, I know it is hard but not impossible. I first spent years teaching my wife this topic. Not everyone goes off half cocked and without a plan.

Currently, over half the men of the assembly indicate they support and intend to continue fellow shipping with us. We did lose 2 couples almost instantly.

When this happens, I always recall these scriptures...
Luk 12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:

Luk 12:52 For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three.
Luk 12:53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
 
Luk 12:53 The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother in law against her daughter in law, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
Just a side note:
What I find interesting about this passage is that division between husband and wife is not listed.
Pretty much every other relationship possible is listed.

Yes, it's way easier for you because you have very high influence on group rules of acceptable conduct which means you aren't in position of group revolutionary.

Sadly, common church visitor does finish as revolutionary, no wonder they get excommunicated.

Memefan.....

Have you not read all the posts of so many pastors that lost their jobs BECAUSE they were willing to say things that were biblically true but their church people were unwilling to hear it.

Sadly. It is easy to lose an entire church as they form a rebellion against what they perceive as a threat.

It's better to try to change culture as pastor than regular guy.
