1 | How did godly men marry several women? | 1 Corinthians | LovingChrist | 85645 | ||
Read I Corinthians 7:2 The Old Testament was under the old law and the New Testament is under the new law. I do believe that when Christ died for our sins the old law was destroyed and the new laws were set into place at that point! Basically it was ok for them to have many wives only in the Old Testament. |

2 | How did godly men marry several women? | 1 Corinthians | BibleStudent74 | 86270 | ||
That is incorrect [Loving Christ]. It was NEVER God's plan for ANY man (godly or not) to have more than 1 wife. There were always consequences for those godly men that had more than 1 wife. Beginning with Abraham (Edom and Israel), down to David and Solomon to name a few. There was never peace between their children and they always suffered for it. There was no NEW law that specifically said you cannot have more than 1 wife because it was already instituted from the beginning (Gen 2:24). Remember, Jesus did not come to change any law, he came to fulfill, magnify the law. See Mark 10:5-9 for clarity. |
