another Christian reads the Quran
Crown:
You cant judge Prophet Muhamad for having more than one wife because almost ALL of the Old testament prophets had MORE THAN ONE WIFE!
rafsta:
i'm talkin about the new testament...
thats the whole reason why Jesus came, adultery, thiefs and bullshit was aplenty.
Crown:
Captain that was not my point. It is the fact that having more than one wife dosen't nessesarily exclude you from prophet status if it did then would have to throw out over half of the bible because many prophets had more than one wife. Even if Jesus bevieved in one wife, GOD has used polygamists in the past so MAYBE he wouldn't be opposed to using one again.
rafsta:
where in the bible does it say the prophets had more than one wife ? i dont remember the prophets even having one wife...
and what is a polygamist ?
Crown:
Abraham is one of the most important prophets in the bible OT/NT and the Quran
In Genesis Chapt 16:3 Sarah abrahams wifey gives her Egyptain maidservent to Abraham to be his 2nd wifey.
The Reason why Abraham is so important in the bible and Quran is that Prophets, according to the bible and Quran, can only come through Abrahams family line.Genesis chapters 15-17
The hebrew Nation are issacs children from Abrahams union with sarah.
The arab Nation are ishmeals children from Abrahams union with Hagar.
Jesus is a descendant of issac which gives him prophet or messiah status by birthright.
although a covenant was made with the jews, if they failed to follow through with their end of the bargan, God still has to honor his promise to abraham by having a covanant with his descendants, which would be the Arabs by default. and prophet muhammad is a descendant of ishmeal. you dont have to believe me but you would be better of to study it for yourself instead of making blanket statements about religions. I my self am not of any religious faith in particular but I dont see one as better than the other because all prophets are different members of abrahams family anyways, and God promised abraham many nations and tribes through his name (Jew,Christian,Islam) so just follow the one that u believe the best way u can.
solomon had 700 wives
genesis 5:19 lemech 2 wives
genesis 29 Jacob has 2 sisters for wifeys, racheal and leah
there are more examples but not important.
polygamy is being married to more than one partner.
