Just because people in the OT were polygamous does not mean God condoned it.
Jesus clearly taught that marriage is between one man and one woman.
Now people are free to pick and choose and interpret scripture however they choose.
That doesn't mean they are right.
That doesn't mean that whenever a man sees a pretty young girl and sprouts a woody that it is God's will for him to have that girl.
So spare me the BS about polygamy being OK with God. Show me the scripture where God suspends the Ten Commandments and says that adultery is now o.k.
“And just to clarify further that the God of the Old Testament also condoned polygamy.”
Ever heard of the Ten Commandments, how about the New Testament? Yeah, there’s a lot more to the story. You ought to check it out before you become a theologian. No where in the Bible does God condone polygamy.
You use the doings of sinners to justify sin? That is not allowed by God. He compares all men to God come in flesh of the second creation human being, Jesus Christ.
You cannot find any fault in Him. He had no sin, and He was tempted in all points as all in Adam are, from the beginning: the lust of the flesh [and sexual immorality is only one aspect of the lusts of the flesh]; the lusts of the eyes; and the pride of life; and yet, He was without sin.
