Welcome Jamie! There is certainly a lot of new ideas and emotions that come up when you accept polygyny as a biblical option. I have shared a few things here in the forums that have helped me make sense of my inner conflicts....or to be more...

Hi! My name is Jamie, and my husband is Dan. Recently Ive wrestled with the idea of polygamy and decided to find this forum to learn and see the other side of the debate. I believe my husband and I have a woman in our lives who would fit us, and...

You may find a word study on "Gentile" interesting.

Was it sinful? Forbidden? Permissible? He didn’t restate bestiality. Must something be restated to be followed? Let’s. What is it? He’s nothing new. Why do you revert to that Old Testament figure for your faith? Jesus didnt restate him. So...

So he sinned? He kind of judaízed? He’s a hypocrite? He did that which was righteous? You do realize that prophecies of the coming kingdom include…temple sacrifice. Likely not just Jewish converts but at least you concede that point. All...

Why accept spiritual middlemen when you go to direct to Master?

Our family has done different things over the years due to changing circumstances. The general idea was one of "it really isn't anyone's business" especially if we didn't know them well. We did all agree that telling family was important since...

Megan is away right now. As I recall it was not their teachings as much as it was a man in leadership who had bad manners and bad boundaries. How does that saying go? "The sheep are happier of themselves than in the care of wolves."

I presume you are referencing this forum? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

Yep! We wouldn't be welcome in any church I know of. We are blessed to have the acceptance of family and others in our small community. I had an aquaintance who claimed Christ tell me once "I would be more interested in what else you believe...

I've experienced a lot of abuse in my life and I've encountered it countless times in the church. Several years ago, several major scandals happened at the same time. A couple evangelical celebrities were found to have been molesting people...

Note that I am discussing someone who claims to view the bible from the same understanding that I have. Not stating that my viewpoint is the only biblically sound or defendable one. I was having a discussion with another biblical believing woman...

So he sinned? He kind of judaízed? He’s a hypocrite? He did that which was righteous? You do realize that prophecies of the coming kingdom include…temple sacrifice. Likely not just Jewish converts but at least you concede that point. All...

If any of that is silent, then making a definitive conclusion in opposition is misguided, isn’t it? As far as Torah keeping, Paul offered up sacrifices in the Temple. The historical and biblical evidence seems to indicate that NT believers...
