Deuteronomy 17:17 “Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.”
ABC News “… SALT LAKE CITY — Polygamy wouldn’t be a felony crime in Utah for the first time in 85 years under a bill that passed the Legislature on Friday and appears to be supported by the governor.
Lawmakers voted overwhelmingly for the proposal that supporters said will allow the 30,000 or so people living in the state’s polygamous communities to come out of the shadows and report abuses such as underage marriage by other polygamists without fear of prosecution…”
Sadly, the news headline above is what I woke up to this morning. You can read the entire article through the link provided. Any doubts I had the world is going to hell in a hand basket right here and now, were tossed once again…
The one thing I didn’t doubt was that Utah would someday legalize polygamy.
Time will only tell how long it’ll be before Joe Smith’s version of a perfect utopia will kick in, but with the prophet they have now, it shouldn’t be long.
What is long, is the list of reasons why this is wrong!
Be sure to pray for members to see this as the final straw, and leave their disillusioned leaders for Jesus!

And wouldn’t you know it…there’s Kody Brown (no relation) front and center. Yes, the Browns are all consenting adults, but their 19 kids are not. They didn’t have a say in the matter.
If you want to know the ugly truth Google Doris Hanson at Shields and Refuge. And read or listen to her story about what it was like growing up in a polygamist cult. Or watch the videos of the many other people’s stories that she has interviewed over the years.
There is NO WHERE in the Bible where God ever commanded polygamy.
There is also nothing in the Bible that even remotely suggests that Jesus was a polygamist.
