At what point do the actual practicing polygynists here begin to disclose to new people your views on Biblical marriage? Whether that be social circles, potential new sisterwifes, old friends... no boundaries on the scope of the question. I'm...

Paul deals with this battle in Romans 7:15-25, among other places. It is obvious from the various events recorded in the Old Testament Scriptures involving, e.g. Samson and Delilah, David and Bathsheba, etc., and passages such as 1 Corinthians...

Good plan! This is why ya just want to let Him work in your life....and trust that He is!

I found what VV76 wrote to be encouraging and insightful. His family has continued to live, work, and home fellowship with people. He described it as "Taking the leap into nothing, and finding everything." He said his whole family were...

As has been said before, polygyny is something that the enemy of our souls both hates and fears. Think it not strange that fiery trials come upon you when you, even inadvertently, challenge him on this issue

Funny and sad! That's why I say it's some strong brain bending delusion. Maybe because they fancied their own emotional sentiments were "Holier" than His revealed morality. ...and yet He is The Just Judge, and the only one with the authority to...

I feel like it's implied. Interestingly, it only names one of the properties and not all of the family properties. I feel like their father knows my character well enough and also understands his daughter's personality foibles and mania enough...
