"Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away"
And I see that as meaning the same thing as "He shall not take it upon himself to take multiple wives." That doesn't rule out HAVING multiple wives, just how they are obtained.

The scripture is clear..you can accept it as the word of God or reject it..

But I will remind you of your own church principle..that prophets do not have to always be right. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young were wrong they were not hearing the God that changes not..

You are confusing when a prophet is receiving a relevlation, and when a prophet is giving his personal ideas!

A prophet is NOT 24/7 in that revelation mode.

The Lord did raise seeds up for his own purpose and than the mission was accomplished!

R7 where you missed the point is you keep trying to processe this imformation from the world evaluation, it is impossible to do! Your thoughts need to be elevated are you will be using the wrong tools to arrive at your conclusions! And only the Lord can elevate your thoughts!

You are standing on the earth floor trying to measure when you need to be lifted up to see all that the Lord has shown the prophet!

That is why we ponder, study it out in our mind and pray to the Lord for understanding!

..in their personal opinons and actions. That is why we rely on officialy accepted doctrine and teachings and scripture. Not things like JoD etc.
