RE: Presbyterian Church faces revolt after proposing clergy must be in monogamous relationships
There used to be a time when this was IMPLICITLY ACCEPTED as a REQUIREMENT based on Scripture.
That is has to be proposed shows how far the fall of this denomination has gone.
I so wish the Presbyterian Church USA would stop calling themselves Presbyterians so that biblically sound denominations like Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and the Evangelical Presbyterian Church (EPC) wouldn’t get lumped in with them.
I was just telling my daughter “Hey, if it was good enough for King David and Solomon...”
I once asked a pastor about why did God allow the multiple wives thing. His response was along the lines of “Well, he was working on the other sins - mainly trying to rid them of worshiping other gods. Sort of like with us, He works on certain parts of our lives that are a priority. And He didn’t “allow” it or condone it. And if you read carefully, it was never a benefit to have more than one partner, and it always led to problems.”
