If you are looking for a morman woman then you are barking up the wrong tree. The Jesus of mormanism is not the messiah and here is why.
The messiah had to be sinless which means Jesus, if he is the messiah would never have lied. In John 3:16 Jesus states that he is God's ONLY begotten son, also stated by John in John 1:14 and John 1:18. Yet Joseph Smith claims Jesus and satan are brothers. Either Jesus is lying and therefore cannot be the messiah, or Joseph Smith is lying in which case Jesus is the messiah and Mormanism can't be trusted. Bear in mind that Mohammed also believed he was visited by Gabriel as did Joseph Smith. Clearly neither were actually visited by the real Gabriel as Gabriel would not contradict what is already written and not say anything that would make Jesus, the sinless Son of God a liar.
If you are looking outside the Christian faith for a wife because of your desire for polygamy then maybe you should look at monogamy instaed of venturing into other faiths. After all that is God's intended design and therefore best way to live.
He made one wife for Adam.
4Jesus answered, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate
Wife , singular. 2 becoming one, not 3 or 4.
5For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee: 6If any be blameless, the husband of one wife,....blameless, one wife..
Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
Wife, singular. The apostles, Jesus brothers and the church in appointing elders showed the way we should live. Bearing in mind 11 of those apostles spent 3 years under the teaching of Christ himself.
Why look outside our faith when we can live in the way God created and intended us to live, as modeled by the apostles etc...and Jesus himself who is coming for his Bride, not brides. ONE bride, his church. Different parts to that one body of the church but still one Bride. Polygamy is not one bride.
I'm not looking for a wife. I'm looking for a mate.
It is better to remain single and celibate.
I don't know that you are celibate.
I do know that many men that are married live celibate lives.
The Bible says that it is good not to marry. (Matthew 19:10 and 1 Corinthians 7:1) Pick and choose Bible verses.
Many men do not get the goods of marriage, and you side with monogamy.
What woman is a virgin for her first husband?
What woman stays with one man?
What woman follows the Bible?
Women go from one man to another and you preach monogamy. How many women have you had?
I've had one woman. She just used me to get to the states. She does not want kids and she does not want touch. And people like you say that one should be limited to such. If Jesus could only choose one, which one would he pick? As it is, Praise God! Jesus has more than one, and you can come to him too. But how many women have you had, Cuzzie? You have not answered how many that you are one with? You advocate for monogamy while you have not been monogamous. Are you a virgin, Cuzzie? Or you just have a different standard for others? We are outside the Garden of Eden, Cuzzie. Nothing is ideal outside the Garden of Eden. As such, people have multiple partners. Not many follow Bible teachings. In the Bible, a virgin is bound to the first guy to her and they are never to divorce. But what person goes by the Bible now days? Surely, you are not following the scriptures, Cuzzie or you may have been married to one long ago and had union with no other. As it is, you have had union with more than one, and you did not marry. How scriptural is that?
Very good you are a virgin. Is that an ACTUAL virgin or is that a NEW CREATION IN CHRIST JESUS "VIRGIN"? or a BORN AGAIN AND AGAIN "VIRGIN" that every time one says "sorry" to God is a virgin again and again?
I had a friend who strove for Revelation 14:4.
I knew a man who strove for Revelation 14:4.
These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they remained virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among mankind and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb. (Revelation 14:4)
He chose a BETTER path. The one who can accept it, should.
Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given. For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.” (Matthew 19:11-12)
Of course, Jesus may have been literal about making oneself a eunuch. (Matthew 5:29-30)
So, you are ACTUALLY a virgin? and GENUINELY a virgin?
I went 41 years then involved myself with the wrong woman.
Now I've been very celibate in that union.
The good in the evil is I have two kids from that mistake. But I would have been better off remaining a virgin.
Their mother decided not to be true.
There is what you are told before marriage, and there is what you get in marriage.
In marriage, a man may be very celibate because his wife choosing not to give her husband the goods of marriage.
One becomes married on paper only.
There are many "paper ONLY wives"
Call them P.O.W.
For the lack of AUTHENTIC marriages, the Catholic church to get around divorce created ANNULMENT.
It is nice to get around divorce. We know that Jesus preached against divorce. We know that Jesus taught against marriage after divorce. (Luke 16:18 and Mark 10:12) and that Paul spoke against separation and divorce. (1 Corinthians 7:10-11) It is good to find a way to get around those Bible verses. People like wiggle room. Maybe we can twist a few Bible verses to say something we like.
