What say you -- From the beginning it was not so -- God made them man and female. NOT FEMALES. God frowns on polygamy

No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?

Polygamy only loses if scripture condemns it... Divorce wasn't in the beginning either and yet its not sin......so again where do you PROVE to someone that they will die lost and go to hell for living in Polygamy

First don't assume I said you would go to hell. I didn't, and certainly some polygamist will be in heaven, but that doesn't mean that is Gods plan for the NT church.

God was reminding David that he exalted him to be king. The custom was for kings to inherit his predessors harem. God was simply saying I put you in this position, not condoning polygamy.
