Yeah. The thing here is that you used the term marry which also equates to marriage. And marriage specifically sets a union of two people to be seen as one. There's really nothing much to and if you want to marry more than once then convert to islam

[btsjimin]

"Go on and multiply", the Bible says. Being Christians, men are monogamous in nature. Having one and only wife is strongly commanded. This is showing Faithfulness to his wife and his family. In the eyes of God, marrying more than one wife is a mortal sin.

No, he can't. because he once said it's for whole life. but if you meant if he could have more than one wife in same time, the answer is no too. marriage is result of love, or it should be. and you  just can't love more than one wife.

[Lyne1982]

Christian men can marry more than one wife no bible verses is against polygamy

That's against christian laws.“You shall not commit adultery.” One of God’s Ten Commandments.
Disobedience is transgression to God’s Law resulting in sin and dishonor. If man and woman married each other they will become one flesh, this means that they are united in one. Moreover, it is an exclusive union.

I don't care what Bible said, I know what would my wife say 

Even if your wife don't say anything about that, if you really love your wife you must still be faithful with her. Once you have a wife, why you need to get another? I love my partner and there is no reason to find another men. I love how we are right now, except that until now we are not yet married. That is only the thing that we don't have right now. 

[Sithara007]

Does it matter in today's world? Many of the billionaires and the oligarchs are having dozens of girlfriends. If that is allowed, then what is wrong when the individual is marrying some of his girlfriends (as long as the relationships are consensual)?

Yes, it is posible but it is against the will of God. As christians, we must know how to value marriage because it's sacred and is honored by God. We should grant and have it with just one person. However, in some cases, it is  permitted. If ever a married wife or a husband is already deseased, second marriage is already allowable.

[sendohmarin]

Yes, you are right. The facts in the Bible there is no prohibition. But, do you remember the promise of marriage? that the promise says, nothing can separate you, live except god (which means death). but the fact is, that promise is just a nonsense in our lives. many divorced in marriage, and cheating. I think it is very difficult to find the answer .

[k00d8]

Probably the Bible does not prohibit this (I wouldn't know) but society does. Morally and legally. Simply, you cannot do that because the law will not allow it. Neither would society. And it is very unlikely that a first wife would go along with it.

The Bible is not against a man marrying two wives but it’s the law that severely prohibits against the marriage of two or more wives or husbands when it comes to women. For the sake of peace.

The Bible is not against a man marrying two wives but it’s the law that severely prohibits against the marriage of two or more wives or husbands when it comes to women. For the sake of peace.

In the USA the law is consenting adults. Breaking of the law comes when there is more than one marriage license application filed for or by any person.

If a polygamous family is attacked and brought to court, it simply depends on how they handle themselves in court, and the court they carry the case to. If local community is against them enough, even if they win in court, it might be wise for them to move.

In other words, true marriage has to do with an agreement among the married people. The state marriage license is almost never a requirement.

In the Old Testament, if a man's brother is married and without children, and the brother dies, it was a requirement that the living brother marry the dead brother's wife. This was done so that there could be a son born to the widow of the dead brother, to carry on the family line of the dead.

It would be nice if such love were shown in America today. It's the idea of love that is important... such as marrying a woman to protect her from the abuse of society for not being married. Although abuse like this almost never applies to people in modern America, the extending the family in the case of a dead brother might.

I don't think that the bible makes a distinction between men and women with regards to the number of marital partners. I am not a Christian, but as far as I know polygamy or polyandry is not allowed in any of the mainstream Christian sects. Only the fringe sects such as the FLDS allow it.

In our country, the law states that a man can not marry another woman if he still is legally married. They have to be annulled first before they can marry another woman.

[omarsir]

The world is totally divided into different communities it is exactly true that different community is influenced by different religion. By the religion of islam men may marry one and more according to his own ability in contrast of cristian may allow to marry more and it is quite different.Though cristian may allow but islam never allows

[tsinelas]

No. Christian men are not allowed to marry more than one wife. There is also a law that prohibits this on doing this. However, because of this restrictions, Christians happen to look for someone else.

[KampungMonyet]

god for Catholics creates adam and air to live together.

then when it is bound marriage should not marry again or wife two.
because it violates the rules in the church.
want to marry again must be divorced according to the rules that new ad may marry again.

[mylifeisorandom]

I am a firm believer of one woman for one man. I believe that Polygamy does not Honor God and is not His design for marriage. There is an aspect of "one flesh" in marriage, oneness and need for harmony in marriage and I think Polygamy just creates more problems.

[Gintron]

A man who wants to be a Christian and live a life that is close to the life of Christ should not have more then more wife.
You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully
has already committed adultery with her in his heart." So here is your answer as a Christian you should not have more then
1 wife.
