Monogamy vs. Polygamy — Is it sin… or is it sacred? In this explosive conversation, Buddy Brand and Raphael Vargas go head-to-head on one of the most heated topics in the modern Christian space: Can a man of God have multiple wives? Raphael Vargas shares his unapologetic take on alpha masculinity, biblical prophecy, and why he believes polygamy may not be a sin — but a blessing. Buddy responds with truth, grace, and Scripture — standing firm on God's original design for covenant. If you've ever wondered what the Bible actually says about marriage, masculinity, and whether culture is shaping our convictions more than Christ… this is the video.
