Prophet Kumchacha, leader of Heavens Gate Ministries, has urged men to marry more than one woman, saying it is not a sin. He argued that the Bible doesn’t directly forbid polygamy, going against what many people believe.

Speaking on UTV’s United Showbiz on September 14, 2024, he explained that only the Apostle Paul suggested that men should have one wife, but this was just advice, not a rule, so men can decide for themselves.

According to him, marrying multiple wives can help men live longer because dealing with just one wife can be challenging. “Marriage has its issues, so I always tell men to marry at least two or three women if they want to live long,” he said. He added, “If God blesses me with wealth like Kwame Despite or Ofori Sarpong, I would do the same. As a prophet, I dare any pastor to show me a Bible verse from Genesis to Revelation that says having more than one wife will send you to hell—it doesn’t exist.”

He also noted that Paul’s advice in 1 Timothy about marriage is not a strict rule, and people can choose whether or not to follow it. He mentioned that Paul also said in 1 Corinthians 14:34 that women should not preach in church, but many churches today don’t follow that rule either.
