Nana: “THe LORD God of the Christian Bible condemns polygamy along with homosexual activites equally...”
Mr R: I’m unaware of where the Bible vigorously condemns polygamy as strongly as it does homosexuality.
________________________________________________________
Polygamy is mentioned in the Ten Commandments while homosexuality is not...
However there are passages that equates both as condemned by the LORD God of the Christian Bible..
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 1 Corinthians 6:9
We also know that law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious; for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, for adulterers and perverts, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine 1 Timothy 1:9, 10
Maybe I’m missing where those verses discuss polygamy. I also missed it in the 10 commandments.
Was David evil for polygamy? Where does God condemn him for it?
That it isn’t the best is shown in the requirements for an elder, but I don’t recall seeing it explicitly and severely condemned like homosexuality.
