The author argues that God\u2019s intent for marriage was for one man to remain true to one woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But humanity rebelled against God\u2019s original plan, resulting in polygamy, which the author contends is a form of flagrant disobedience to God. The Lord allowed the practice to continue, which is why it is not condemned in the Bible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The author answers questions such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Under what conditions should monogamy and\/or polygamy be endorsed or condemned?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What did God mean when he instructed Adam and Eve to \u201cbe fruitful and multiply\u201d and fill the earth and subdue it (Genesis 1:28)?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why is marriage sacred and holy?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other topics include the continuing conflict between monogamy and polygamy, how different cultures perceive a union between a man and woman, how early missionaries to Africa and other parts of the world preached God\u2019s word, and how Jesus and the apostles confronted controversies surrounding marriage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-63375db1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-custom-font-size wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/authorwebservices-gem2.net\/AuthorHouse\/863262\/excerpt\/\" style=\"border-radius:3px;background-color:#2e6b8b;font-size:15px\"><strong>READ AN EXCERPT<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-custom-font-size wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.authorhouse.com\/en\/bookstore\/bookdetails\/863262-marriage-a-noble-adventure\" style=\"border-radius:3px;background-color:#2e6b8b;font-size:15px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>ORDER A COPY NOW<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve wondered why marriage began and the purpose it serves, then you\u2019ll enjoy this book.
