My name is Dre,

God has been very good to me.
I was born in Kyiv Ukraine and I was orphan until at age of 14 when I was adopted by American family. I have received God's provision of salvation when I was 8 years old. My preferred denomination right now is Free Will Baptist. I have been attending Baptist fellowship for 31 years.

Because of injustice I have witnessed for long time I wanted to be police officer. Now, I would prefer to be tool in God's kingdom by promoting biblical families.

God has blessed me with opportunities to be in the U.S. Coast Guard and Moody Theological Seminary. During my educational pursuits, I studied Criminal Justice, Management, Spiritual Formation and Discipleship.

I would want one day to start a farm and have other businesses that contribute to well being of neighbors.

I have come to accept polygyny as viable option 12 years ago prior to marrying my wife. But because of concern that I would be jeopardizing my future marriage, I compromised on this revealed truth by doing mental gymnastics and exchanged love of woman for God's truth. As a result I did what Adam did with Eve and listened to his woman instead of God. Eventually, I immersed myself in studying again this topic, and was further persuaded in its relevance and veracity. Later on, I was pleased to come across more resources that confirmed the same things I discovered and revealed new things.

I appreciate all of you who contribute to strengthening patriarchy and biblical families. I hope to do everything you have been doing but in Ukrainian for country of my birth, who have been dealing with Russian oppression for over 300 years under various regimes. And topic of polygyny will be most helpful to those people as there is disparity of men to women will be even greater and there will be more orphans. I almost feel that is my calling for such a time as this.

I think introduction of polygyny will be helpful in dealing with men's addiction to porn (60% of church going men are addicted, 50% pastors).

Also, I am advocate of Textus Receptus version of the Bibles. All other versions I am suspicious of (Consider learning more through documentary Tares Among the Wheat: Sequel to a Lamp in the Dark).

As result of David Hunt's work I am critical of psychology religion. I believe in sufficiency of Scripture of equipping us for godliness.

Look forward to learning from you my dearest brothers and examples of sisters.

God bless you all.
 
Great intro, welcome!
 
Shalom and welcome.
 
Welcome!
How is your wife feeling about things now? We have a ladies chat on Tuesday nights, she is most welcome to join us, she'll just need to sign up her own account first.
 
Thank you all for your welcome. I am glad I discovered you all. I am still working on my wife accepting the truth. She is not there yet. In fact my marriage may dissolve. I have been caving in to her feelings for five years. Now I got enough courage to avoid retreat. But I will suggest to her your invite if that is ok?

Do suggest she talks to the ladies here, they've all been through this before and most used to feel just the same as she does because that's how everyone was raised.

But don't push the issue yourself too much. If there's a risk of your marriage dissolving over it, it probably just isn't that important. There's no point in hoping for two wives and ending up with no wives. God has given you one wife, be content and enjoy what you have. There's a good chance He has no intention of giving you any more anyway - statistically most men will always be monogamous. So don't throw away the blessing of God that is your wife. If God does intend for you to get a second wife one day, He can change her heart in time for that. Focus on improving yourself and trust God to improve your wife.

Thank you for your council. I will keep that in mind. It however effects our discussion about children. After experiencing three miscarriages, discussion about adoption and trying again comes up. And I do not want my potential children to be orphans if divorce were to happen. I trust God that He is still working.
