The verse that isn't there because it doesn't exist. That is, any verse that prohibits polygamy.

Matthew 19:5 just tells how any husband and wife should live in relation to one another, not anything about number.

Look, uss, it's simple. God knows how to prohibit things: "Thou shalt not..." He does that a lot. He doesn't do it about polygamy. Therefore polygamy is not prohibited.

In the ot yes. the NT has a whole new approach.

Mat 19;5 said you are no longer two but one. it states a general rule, those will marry will constitute two peole not 3 or 4 but two.

Circumstancial evidence attorney. the circumstances potrayed in the verse does not provide for the acceptance of polygamy.

Right. It states a general rule. It does not state that God never can or will allow any exceptions to this rule.

Are you sure your starting this Katspur?

you got your exception from Joseph Smith not Jesus Christ.

The bible states My God did not allow exceptions becasue he said, the apostles were the last to be sent, and keep to that which is writtten in the gospels of the apostles of Christ.

I can agree your god made exceptions for you from what ever extra biblical reference you have.

But if you continue bringing the bible in your church's acceptance to polygamy in the past, no one can make me shut up.

As soon as i have it ready i will send you via private message. so that you will have a personal copy.

I will post it here as soon as it is ready.

by the way, I have not forgotten that " Joseph smith did not write doctrine of polygamy from he NT. He got it from christ him self. "

Which means your acceptance of polygamy isn't biblical, but was an instruction diretly from "your" Christ.

I am glad to say, your christ is different from my Christ. my Christ come from an incomplete, erroneous and contradicting source called the " the bible ". after making your blasphemous assertions stop masquerading as a biblical christian. the hypocrisy makes me want to throw up.

we can now agree that your doctrine is not biblical. i can accept that.

You think God forgot how to issue prohibitions? And no, Matthew 19 does not prohibit polygamy, it merely tells how husbands and wives should relate to each other. I think if God had wanted to outlaw something He had formerly permitted, He knew how to say so. In fact Christians continued to practice polygamy for 3 centuries afterward, until Christianity became Romanized, at which point they accepted the Roman model of marriage, which was monogamous. That's why it's not prohibited in the Bible; it was the custom in the Near East at that time.
