In Islam a man can marry four wives. I am against polygamy myself. There’s no way that a man can be one with four women. I’m sorry to say this, but I see people calling themselves Christians who live together but aren’t sacredly married. What are your thoughts on this?
Great point. A Muslim man can’t marry four wives and honor God’s original design for the home—one man, one woman, for life. And a Christian who lives with someone without marrying is trampling on the sacred.
Suppose that a man calls himself a firefighter. He wears the gear. He goes to the firehouse and punches the clock several days a week. But he never responds to a call for help. He never fights a fire. Is he really a firefighter? Or is he simply professing to be one?
There are about two billion people in the world who call themselves Christian. But how many of this vast number are truly following Jesus? Not many. Jesus himself says, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you evil-doers” (Matt. 7:21-23).
