This is a strange thing you are doing. I read one post that said something about overposting. Now it seems like you are inviting overposting? :lol
So tell me this. The entire new testament is full of condemnation against immorality... especially sexual conduct. One thing that baffles my mind is ... Jesus in the new testament even mentions that to have one husband with one wife was the way it was supposed to be... and because of the hardness of their hearts he allowed them to marry many times.
What I don't quite comprehend is... in the new testament it's enough to condemn a person to hell... but in the old testament the patriarchs are almost lauded for their ability to procreate. Abraham had multiple wives. Isaac, jacob, David, Solomon etc. etc. etc. Furthermore God speaks of His love for David, how Abraham will bring his family up well... and so on. This is such a strange... seeming contradiction. I have two years of Bible College, but this one still baffles me.
