These are the last days. I know that we have all heard this before and that many take solace in the knowledge that people have been saying this for centuries and comfort in the knowledge that no man knoweth the hour or the day. Brothers, there is not much prophecy left to be fulfilled. The time is short. Jesus is coming soon, and very soon.
While it is true that know man knoweth the hour or the day, it is also likely that those who are the Lord's people will know the season and the time of His second coming in the glory of the Father. Jesus did not tell us to watch and be ready in vain. Now some here may be thinking, "Why would any god fearing man even bother to promote Christian polygyny if he knows there is not much time anyway?"
The answer is BIBLE PROPHECY.
If we look back on prophecy - even those "abstract prophecies" that were analogical in nature to start with - we will see that ALL the prophecies were fulfilled metaphorically, spiritually, and finally, PHYSICALLY. Now I realize that for some of you this is tough to swallow and if you do not have the teeth to chew it you will certainly choke on the meat. Even so, that which is manifest in the temporal was first manifest... in the spiritual.
Before anything came into being, God spoke it into existence and it existed spiritually, in the mind of God, before it was manifest physically. The sun shall be darkened and the moon turned to blood, physically. This will happen as surely as Jesus turned water into wine. God is never wrong - it is our INTERPRETATION of His Word that has continually been found wanting, if not found in complete error. Man is to blame for this - not God.
This mark of the beast is a good example of prophecy coming true, first spiritually, then psychologically, then physically. Prophecy is multi-fold and manifest. We have our credit cards, our "social security" identification, driver's licenses and all sorts of numbers that we carry around and keep close to us (in our "right hand") and many of us have even gone so far as to memorize these numbers (keeping them in our foreheads) to save us trouble in the event that we don't have ready access to them or lose them. Now this is the sorcery whereby nearly all of humanity will be deceived into receiving the mark, the number, and the name. It has been going on for a long time, and it is a type and shadow of what is coming, but ALREADY it is manifest physically and the long dreaded "mark of the beast" has indeed been among us for CENTURIES in some shape or physical form. So why Christian polygyny if we are already this close to the end?
Marriage is not only a union in the flesh. It comprises a spiritual union whereby souls do bond together but retain both autonomy and identity. A marriage between a man and a woman makes them ONE FLESH in spirit as well. There is no contention that all souls are individually answerable to God whether they remain unattatched or otherwise. My point is that Bible prophecy manifests on many levels and is encompassed by the singularity of that prophecy. Biblical prophecy must be fulfilled - that means "filled up" completely, in all avenues of interpretation (as opposed to misinterpretation) and in every way.
The mark of the beast is at the door. It has been at the door spiritually, ever since Cain received a mark from the Lord so that no man should kill him even though Cain himself, was a murderer. This mark is called "the mark of Cain" and it marks the sinful nature of Mankind. For those who are able (no pun intended) to receive it this too, was a type and shadow of the MARK to come. Now BIBLE prophecy must be fulfilled in every way. I am confident that it will be; although I do not look forward to the consequences that all of humanity existing at the time of it's complete fulfillment will suffer. So I would urge the reader to undertake a thorough Bible study using the word "mark". They should be able to notice the progression of it's development throughout the ages. Back to polygyny...
This "new" term was originally used by biologists and scientists practically exclusively. It has surfaced only recently in the common English language because even our common laymen among scientists are not complete fools. They know that from studying animals there is a tremendous difference between "polygamy" and a number of females mating with only one male of the same spieces. I wish more Christians would be so circumspect as to realize that man is an animal also. The Bible actually tells us that we are. The BIG difference that seperates us from the rest of the animals is the fact that we are the only ones on this planet that were MADE IN HIS IMAGE. So anyone who knows where we get our word "animated" from also understands the Greek word, "anima". It means that we have the ability to move. That is what life forms that move freely of their own accord are called: Animals. We are animals. Do not let an ignorant "pastor" tell you otherwise. You need to look for the truth yourself and draw a line on this definition if you disagree. All humans are animals and some of us are polygynous creatures, made so by Jesus Christ.
Oh, how we have been deceived! The adherants of Roman Catholicism have done their work very thoroughly and it is the duty of the TRUE WORSHIPPER to lift the standard of Holiness unto God and start cutting through the crap that clutters the minds of all those miserable souls who embrace popery.
Just as with the multi-level manifestations of the prophecy of the mark so must all Bible prophecy be fulfilled: "And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach." What "day" does the prophet Isaiah speak of in the scripture, Isaiah 4:1? Let's look at the next verse: "In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel." Has this day already come? Is the branch of the LORD glorious and beautiful? Is the fruit of the earth already excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel? Let's see what the next verse says: "And it shall come to pass, that he that is left in Zion, and he that remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, even every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:" Uh-oh... now we are already looking at another day because it is written that "it shall come to pass". So what happens in this other day when the branch of the LORD is glorious and beautiful and the fruit of the earth is excellent and comely? " When the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and shall have purged the blood of Jerusalem from the midst thereof by the spirit of judgment, and by the spirit of burning. And the LORD will create upon every dwelling place of mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a defence. And there shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the day time from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain."

Now this is the whole of the text, the complete chapter of Isaiah 4, that I have just shared with you here. Do you honestly believe that all of this prophecy has been fulfilled? I don't. I was discussing this scripture with a catholic man who said, "Oh, polygyny will exist in the new millenium when Christ reigns on the earth but not now. God will only give them wives to replenish the earth in the new millennium." May God open his eyes to Full Bible Truth.
"Oh?", I replied, " How is it then, that seven women will need their "reproach" removed when they are already in resurrected and glorified bodies? To this, of course, he had no answer and remained silent. Be rest assured, Bible polygyny is a true doctrine and a godly custom (no matter what label anyone would care to slap on it) and it must come to pass that all Bible prophecy on all levels, spiritual, metaphorical, psychological, and PHYSICAL be fulfilled throughout the ENTIRE EARTH. Even like the MARK it has been in our culture since the beginning and some are even confusing BIBLE polygyny for the mark of Cain. Don't believe it. I would even venture to say that Adam himself, had more than one wife.
Modern Western Society has never had any greater cultural influence than the filthy lies of the Roman Catholic church and it's adulterous popes. It was this same heretical influence that engendered and promoted the evil doctrine of mandatory monogamy for the devil to "buy some time" to do more dirty work. Do you truly believe that the hand of God is with the Roman Catholic church (that enslaved the Western nations) so much, that if we were all to follow the pope it will not matter if polygamous nations (that lack no population) rise up against us? Did the Church of Rome ever manage to extinguish the Muslim nations? No, because these nations were blessed by the Almighty God. The pope had no power against them and could not prevail because the Muslim people actually obeyed God better than the Catholic church did. We will never know how many their crusades & inquisitions murdered.
"Be fruitful and multiply", saith the Lord. "Only one wife allowed.", saith the pope. Think about it. Why was the Roman papacy trying to control Europe like this? Birth control? The Catholic popes practically invented it. The Muslims obeyed God and they are still with us today. Let's give credit where credit is due and let's stop believing the lies of the devil.
You don't have to choose to be part of Bible prophecy if you don't want to be. It is obvious that we are all part of His prophecy whether we choose to be or not. I will never begrudge a man who chooses to have only one wife. I have little patience for those PRETENDERS who like to act like they have never known another woman in their entire lives while they are yet "married" to one woman. They are hypocrites. Likewise the women who pretend that they have never known another man in their lives when it is not so. They are harlots in the flesh. They need to repent and stop judging the souls of those who come clean with God. PRETENDERS... stop pretending. Embrace the FULL BIBLE TRUTH.
PRETENDER. Do you think that God is going to change His mind about His holy standards because they do not suit your own personal sense of propriety? Think again. God says it's okay for a man to have WIVES plural. Oh yes, and he is also supposed to keep them and to take good care of them and to love them too. The AGELESS ONE does not obey your Pope who invented this restriction of marriage called "monogamy". This word is not even found in the pages of the Bible! It was this FORBIDDING that came from the pit of hell to engender the spirit of homosexuality and lesbianism, even to frustrate the grace of God to such an extent that otherwise good men fell into the cup of the very Harlot who rides the Beast to commit all manner of fornication with her. The CHANGELESS ONE does not embrace your new age marriage laws and your filthy pretenses. Your doctrine is from the devil incarnate and you serve the Catholic Church if you believe that a godly man cannot have more than one wife living under his roof. Godly men have been doing it throughout the ages. For it is written:
And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach. And it is written:
In that day shall the branch of the LORD be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel.
Soon and very soon... this day shall come to pass. The Western nations will be among the last to understand what gave the Harlot the authority to ride the Beast in the first place and then it will all be over. How sad, that we should live in a nation that winks at a woman who takes more than one husband and condemns a man who COMMITS himself to more than one wife!
