I don't think you can affirm the doctrinal statement of that particular Messianic fellowship. It explicitly rejects polygyny, which the Bible permits. In my case, I am a member of a Southern Baptist Church. The elders of my church know my...

And that is the aspect that you need to be careful about. Lifestyle and habits lag in the spiritual renewal process. The spirit is often more willing than the flesh. I’m not speaking of carnal fleshy desires, it’s more how relationships are...

This has definitely been a very interesting situation. Nothing is happening fast and the path forward is still a challenge from both ends. As far as the status and biblical lawfulness of a marriage covenant with her, it is complex as she was...
