You can take it out of context but he was talking about in general unless the Lord says other wise.

Because in each dispensation on earth there was plural marriage an ordinance of the Lord, not every child of God received this ordinance.

BTW this is off topic from the thread which is trying to preserves One man One women as the family united but some here are so toxic and dull they miss the real fight here on earth they rather go back to the 1800’s go figure...

I never take out of context what Christ has said. Good ol' Brother Joseph and Brigham did that in spades. God made one man and one woman to be joined in marriage. It was through the hardness of mans heart that he allowed plurality in marriage. Never once did God authorize it.

And oddly enough each dispensation is tied to the political winds of the time.
