Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband. is this the only hint that multiple wifes is wrong? Not at all ... May I suggest to you this site where you can search the bible in any version that they provide. Look up husband, wife and marriage. http://www.biblegateway.com/ I use it all the time when I am online. In Him, OneLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If marring 15yr olds and having more than one wife is the worst thing going on there... Geez bring their families back together!!!! Please share with me the terriblness of these things because I guess j am missing something. Hi Merin, To me this is a no brainer as you say that you are truly distressed at the taking apart of these families. No offense but I personally don't think you are going to be able to take apart these families even if you had the knowledge. I think if someone is forced or kidnapped into a marriage against their will then it is forciable rape or incest and the marriage can be anulled. There is more to these scenario's than simple putting their families back together. For one thing there would be alot of incest and their is grounds for divorce. I am appauled at your shallow view in looking at 15 yr olds marrying a man perhaps her own father I'm sure unwillingly and then those young girls have to share that man which is forbidden as it is sexual immorality which is also forbidden. Some of these girls have been so scared and it will take a long time to heal as a result of what has been sexual done to them as they will come out of with a wrong view of what marriage is suppose to be and they will need a lot of support.

I just am grieved... I hope in all this they hear Gods song that He sings over them! Sometimes kids NEED to be taken away from the home! Besides physical and mental abuse, as a Christian, why are you not even worried abut the spiritual abuse? And don't worry, every effort will be made to get the kids back with their mothers, but their mothers need to change their situations, and rightly so. Do you know they got rid of young boys because they'd be competition for the older men? Yuck. How do you condone this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
