For some time now I have been very vocal about the biblical truths of polygyny...and it seems that some are grateful to hear the truth. After reading my only detailed public profile a 36 year old Filipino woman by the name of “Grace” contacted me:
Subject: Hi (Scarecrow)
And how would you explain if one has lost her/his love with his partner wife/husband? Does having a bf or extra marital affair is completely condemned, or considered to be a mortal sin?
I really don't understand God's purpose sometimes.
(I wasn’t exactly sure what her issues were but making assumptions from her statements I replied as follows)
Love is more than the emotion that people feel for each other. In fact the emotional component is only a very small part, but one that most people focus on exclusively. 1Corinthians chapter 13 spells out exactly what love is, and also states that "Love never ends". So when I hear someone say that they "fell out of love" I immediately realize that they probably didn't love the other person in the first place; they just thought their hormonal response to them was love.
The scriptures are very specific if one takes the time to study them (most people don't and therefore are ignorant - without knowledge). Sexual adultery is only found when a woman sleeps with a man other than her husband. If a man sleeps with a woman without the intent of keeping her as a wife then he has committed fornication (unless she is married then it is adultery). If you understood those two things then you may have already felt like something was missing...
What if a man is married and sleeps with an unmarried woman? Then he has committed fornication unless he has the intention of taking her as a wife.
No, I'm not Mormon or Islamic...but I was challenged by a Muslim man that said "Why is it that Christians condemn a man for having more than one wife when their scriptures do not?" I went straight to my Bible to prove him wrong...and after many hours of thorough study realized that I couldn't.
The "Monogamy only" doctrine the Catholic church codified around 600 AD is a false doctrine and based on the false teachings of a man that lived about 200 A.D. Unfortunately the reformation around 1500 AD didn't address this although it is clear from their writings that they were aware of it.
Yup...the modern Catholic church as well as the different Christian denominations have been lying to us and probably don't even realize it.
As far as God's purpose...that took me a long time to figure out (because it is so simple that most of us look right past it). Let's start by asking "What is the one thing that we get to take to heaven with us?" The simple answer is our character. Then it is easy to conclude that the only purpose of our lives is to build our character - that God gives us numerous opportunities (through trials) to improve upon our character. So look at the challenges as opportunities and you will see God's plans.
Be blessed,

How wonderful, thank you for sharing this.
But, I must tell you now that I'm involved with a married man, I only knew he's married on the 4th month, I'm trying to get rid of him now...Im not sure if I can.
All the best!

You don't have to "get rid of him". You can become his second wife. Legally you can't marry him, but he can treat you like a wife and in God's eyes if he takes you as his second wife you then are his second wife. You will need to tell him the things I explained to you.

Thank you so much such a wonderful message!!!
