The LORD Jesus Christ was never married...

God the Father was never married...

God has no physical children..

I know there are religions that say God was married and had several wives with whom He had sex and produced children..

But not in Christianity...

God was not only not married to any wives...

Polygamy has never been a Biblical practice ...

Polygamy is adultry and a sin and against the Ten Commandments..

absolutely agree with all,
except about polygamy.
...there is some support for it, in the OT.
and Martin Luther wrote in support of it,
and even attended a 2nd wedding of a German.
and after a bloody 3 nation war,
the Catholic church temporarily allowed it.

But, i agree,
God didn’t have physical sex,
as some religions claim.
and, he DID have a Son,
which some religions deny.

The alledged text comes from the Coptic perspective , one of the first schisms of early Christianity .
They believe that “Knowldge is Power” , both in this life , and in the next .
The Egyptian and Iranian Copts remained somewhat geographicly and physically isolated from other early Christians , and remained separate from non-believers whom they considered ‘infidels’(somewhat akin to the predominate modern Muslims ).
Their religious texts are separate and distinct from conventional Christianity , although they do share many of the books of the Old testament.
