Why Did God Allow Polygamy in the Old Testament but Banned It Now?

YOU ARE WATCHING TIME WITH GREENER MINISTRIES. HOST REV EMMANUEL KWAKUYI GREENLAND. Why does the Christian church teach against polygamy when so many prominent figures in the Old Testament—like Abraham, Jacob, David, and Solomon—had multiple wives? In this video, we dive deep into the biblical, historical, and theological reasons why the Christian Church upholds monogamy (one man, one woman) as the sole standard for marriage. We’ll explore: 1. God’s original design in Genesis (Adam and Eve). 2. The consequences and friction that always followed polygamy in biblical history. 3. Jesus’ explicit teachings on marriage and "becoming one flesh." 4. The guidelines set for church leadership in the New Testament. If you’ve ever wondered how to reconcile the Old Testament practices with modern Christian doctrine, this video is for you. 🔔 Subscribe for more biblical deep dives, theological answers, and history. #Christianity #Polygamy #BibleStudy #Marriage #Theology #ChristianApologetics
