Thanks for the prayers

If that were the standard, the David could not have written over half of the Psalms, and Solomon would have written much less. Having one's house in order is a requirement for church elders, pastors, bishops and deacons. It is not a requirement for the rest of us.

No. They and he believe that would be adultery. (Romans 7:1-3)

Then you must have missed the part where he learned he had sinned by disobeying 1 Cor 7:12 and 15 in his making his relationship with Ms Mazatlan friendship instead of marriage, and had to go back and reaffirm the marital relationship with her. He is still trying to rectify the same error with Lady PD and Lady TL. Lady DT left Tejero and Tejero married Lady RT. After 15 years Lady DT moved back to CA and began to live with her and Tejero's daughers again. When DT left Tejero and he married RT, he told DT that if she were genuinely saved and ever wanted to reconcile and reunite with him, he knew he should take her back (1 Cor 7:10,11,39) even though she married and divorced another in the meantime. DT has returned and celebrates birthdays, Thanksgiving and Christmas with Tejero and his kids and their grandkids. Tejero is in no hurry to ask DT if she wants to reconcile and reunite with him now that she has returned to SD. Tejero doesn't want to take her back, because she is as unsubmissive as the rest of his ladies and he feels he doesn't need any more grief or stress. He is commited to obeying 1 Cor 7:10,11,39 so if she was and is genuinely saved and wants to reconcile and return, he plans on calling on Jesus to enable him to do it. He would need supernatural enabling to do it, and do it well.
Advice and suggestions, if sincere, are always welcome, because he sure knows he doesn't know it all or have it all together. Tejero's polygyny is still under construction, even though he is so old, so tired and so poor now he can't do much about it all. Watch out for the "Under Construction" sign on your way out and turn in your hard hat at the door.
