Are you committing
The Sins of the
Cults?
How to know if you're actually
committing the sins of the cults in order to justify
your forced monogamy
dogma.
-
You put the authority of man and traditions over
the
authority of God's
word.
-
You quote a verse but
ignore the verses that precede and
follow that verse
in order to change the intended meaning. For example Malachi 2:14 has
been
quoted against polygamy while in fact Malachi 2:16 clearly explains
that
this refers to divorce! See the actual verses below.
Malachi 2:14 Yet ye say, Wherefore?
Because the LORD hath been witness between
thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt
treacherously:
yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.
2:15 And did not he make one? Yet had he the
residue of the
spirit. And
wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to
your
spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.
2:16 For the LORD, the God of Israel,
saith that he
hateth putting
away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the
LORD
of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not
treacherously
Notice that this is speaking of dealing treacherously with the wife of
your
youth by divorcing her, not by taking another. You must keep your first
wife
and not use a second wife as an excuse for divorcing your first wife.
Another verse used in the above fashion out of context is Deuteronomy
17:17
however if we read Deuteronomy 17:16 first we realize that this isn't
limiting
kings to only one wife unless it also limits them to one horse! Read
both
verses. To quote the second verse without the former is to participate
in
the sins of the cults for you would be twisting scripture from its
intended
meaning!
16 But he shall not multiply horses to himself,
nor
cause the people
to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses:
forasmuch
as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that
way.
17 Neither shall he multiply wives to himself,
that his heart
turn not
away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.
This is speaking of multiplying such that you
keep a running
count of
them so that they are something of which you can boast. This is so
elementary.
The arguments of the pro-forced monogamy advocates are so weak as to
make
me wonder how much they know about other subjects.

Prince of Sumba, Husband to Many Wives
This Book presents Christian Polygamy
Theology in the
form of a novel. It contains nearly all of Pastor Don Milton's
teachings on polygamy and many arguments favoring polygamy that you
will not read elsewhere. The story will introduce you to some
interesting characters who defend polygamy. Meet Prince John, the
Christian polygamist, who grew
up in a land where no one would ever have guessed that the rest of the
Christian world was against polygamy. Meet the Christian missionary,
Ishmael David (Ish), sent to witness to polygamists. Laugh and cry, as
you see the lengths to which the single Christian ladies go to convince
Ish to take them for wives. Meet Mary, Ish's loyal wife, who struggles
with her new discoveries about polygamy. Her reactions are both
humorous and endearing. Listen as each character presents Christian
theology and history as never before. A Christian Evangelical End Times
Novel. This novel contains over 385 biblical and historical footnotes.
Note: This book is NOT about Mormon or FLDS polygamy.

A Dialog on Polygamy
First Reprint of this Rare Book in 273
Years!
In, A Dialog on Polygamy, the Famous
Italian Reformer;
Bernardino Ochino, presents both sides of the polygamy argument, and
it's
HILARIOUS! Ochino plays the part of a sixteenth century priest, which
he was, while Telypolygamus plays the part of the advocate for
polygamy. On December 2, 1563, Ochino was exiled from Germany for
publishing this work. Some say the German Reformation ended that day.
He and his children were sent out into the harsh elements where three
of them died of the plague. Ochino died a year later.
In addition to the original translation, I've included my own modern
font version which includes many editorial changes. You'll notice that
I've introduced the nicknames Ochy and Tely for the characters. I find
this preferable to identifying them with letters as the original did.
If you're a purist,
please, read the old font version. To find the old font version, open
the book just beyond the middle. The pages are numbered the same in
both versions to make cross referencing easier.
Had Bernardino Ochino not been exiled for writing on polygamy, he might
have had more to say on the subject. Certainly there is more to say and
I have done so in many of my own books. If you enjoy dialogs such as
Ochino's, I've written a novel titled Prince of Sumba, Husband to Many
Wives. Its characters argue for and against polygamy, I must admit;
mostly for it.
