And he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.1 Samuel 1: 2
Their love story was featured in one of the TV network in the Philippines: MAALAALA MO KAYA (MMK)(Will you Remember?).
Their love story started in being wed…both in love with each other. But the husband was earning less than the wife and gossips among the women friends of the wife contributed to the cooling of the husband “love” for his wife. He began to resent her earnings which was more than his and the gossiped that he was good for nothing husband. He had a love affair with another woman which in time the first wife caught. The wife could not forgive the husband…and thus was another FAVORITE NUCLEAR FAMILY BROKEN by the big big lie that it was a sin against God for a man to add another wife.
Look at the story of Elkanah who had two wives. What did the godly wife did when her godly husband added another wife? Did she stop herself from loving her husband? We see that she did not, instead she prayed to God. And we see that Elkanah also love her..
1 Samuel 1″4-5 And when the time was that Elkanah offered, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions: But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah: but the LORD had shut up her womb.
When society do not go back to this Biblical Model of Marriage and insist on the doctrine of demons that forbid a man to marry another wife…this tragedy of a husband and wife and their children will be repeated again and again and again!
Woe to the blind guides and their followers for sacrificing the families to the altars of demons by preaching a false marriage which does not at all synchronize with the Biblical model! Wake up men of God!
