Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them in the sight of the Lord, that they strive not about words, to no profit, to the subverting of them that hear
Guilty as charged.
Who?
All of us.
Apparently we have been doing what our fore fathers have done and what we were told not to.
What have we accomplished with the bickering and fighting?
How many have come to the forum on search of answers?
How many have abandon the idea of finding answers about biblical plural marriage, biblical monogamous marriage, patriarchy, about what it means to be a biblical man, a biblical woman?
Now that I got your attention, let's talk about a few things.
Here it is 2:30 in the morning and Im unable to sleep because this is on my mind.
Patriarchy: a system of society or in which the father or eldest male is head of the family and descent is traced through the male line. G-ds plan for the family.
Biblical man: Theres alot that can be said here but one thing is clear. G-ds choice as head of the house. The one in a biblical marriage who wields G-d granted Authority. With authority comes acountability.
We fall into distraction about what Dr X, Celebrity Y, Social Warrior Organization Z, or the Modern Church is teaching or saying about men or marriage or the relationships between men and women. That doesnt change the fact that when it comes to accountability it starts and ends with a Biblical Man. Instead of being distracted by outrage, do something about it. Man up and confront the Churches, Celebrities, or Social Warriors. Why moan and cry over the practices of those who reject biblical life here? It does nothing to edify Biblical Familes. We all came to Biblical Familes with questions about Biblical plural marriages and in search of answers. Now most of the time we endlessly debate topics that don't pertain to the reason we came here in the first place.
Here's a suggestion for things we might want to focus on.
Biblical plural marriage
Biblical monagomaus marriage, because before you can have a Biblical plural marriage yoy must have a Biblical monagomaus marriage.
What does it mean to be a Biblical man or woman? Because if your not living as a Biblical man or woman how can you have a Biblical monagomaus marriage.
Not married, then having a thread about trying to have a courtship/dating in a Biblical way and how a woman could do so with a Biblical Man where single or married. (without off topic distractions)
The ladies do a good job of sharing their struggles and break throughs, but that's another good topic as it applies to any of the topics above.
This is where our focus should be.
If we're going to have the look what was revealed to me conversations let's remember we're not a cookie cutter bunch. Show what you learned, don't be upset when someone gives there opinion.
I for one, will state my beleif but I wont argue my point. I'll clarify what I said If asked but if you want to Sharpen Iron PM me. I dont want to be a distraction for others.
