cold: I don't go to church but the answer isn't far fetched.Girls from the next church always look prettier and more saintly.In other words,the grass is always greener on the other side

swhiss: A lot of people marry outside their church and they fail to realise how wrong that is....The apostle paul admonishes christains to ''marry only in the Lord'' [1corinthians 7:39, 11:11]

so with the sound reasons he gave to support this, i dont think i am ready to do contrary.
Marry within d lord ,not within d church

I think d way we behave in churches caused it. We are always too spiritual to make such move even when the 'bro' sees the sister she likes.

cheesy this topic funny die buh seriously,why would a guy discard what he's familiar with for what he doesn't know just kos his pastor who can't pray out a mosQuito biting someone said crap....
Anyway our so called sisters in the Lord aren't helping matters,many are like sheep in wolf clothing or should I say wolf in sheep clothing.some after preaching God to you would go for a pussy reset grin
Seriously I prefer catholic girls to them but seriously won't mind having another of those born again pussies wink

DailyNews: The fear of getting a NO from someone they will be seeing so often. Imagine if he builds up courage and walks up to a sister he had been admiring in the church, and unfortunately, the sister says: NO! I am taken, occupied, not ready now, etc.

The guy will never be able to cope with the shame, especially when he will be seeing the sister in church always.

You know, after many stories and experiences shared by different guys of how they got turned down or snubbed by some rude and manner-less ladies they cherished and wished to love and marry, guys of nowadays have learnt to keep quiet even when they cherish a lady, most responsible guys always keep that admiration to themselves, most times forever.

Not all guys can handle rejection from a lady they cherish and have fantasize a good future with, hence, many responsible guys in general have withdrew from wooing and and toasting women.

That's the sad situation right now. I know plenty guys in this shoe.

i thought church girls are easier to get as long as they know the brother is dedicated & lives a holy life. you mean those scarf-tying, beret-wearing single women still say no to the advances of church brethren?

wow!!!

eddy1234, you ignorant of the word of God. dont mislead people. people can marry out of their church, there is no bible verse that says you cant. as long as the person is a child of God. many people in your child may not be children of God too.. even your pastors may not know God.
people may preach but have no relationship with God.

The fear that wooing sister ada who might say no and tell sister joy about it who might then tell another person till e reach the pastors ear and it will make you look like someone that came to church to decieve sisters, The best approach is if you see a sister you wanna marry and you pray about and fully convinced that she is meant to be your wife, then go and tell the pastor and the pastor will now call her and advise her to go pray about marriage and come back to him/her, now if God really made her to be ur wife she will came back positive. Don't let a pastor tell you God wants you to marry this person or not, pray about it and be surely convinced who God wants you to marry so that incase anything happens in future you can hold God responsible

Re: Why Wouldn't You Marry A Sister From Your Church? by Nobody: 10:56pm On Nov 01, 2013
@Op,
I dare to say that Jesus has a different opinion from you about these sisters marriage or no marriage. Just because of your self-righteous influenced quest for marriage, you will come to a public place like this and say these things about sisters in the Church. Judge for yourself if Christ Himself will commend you for the remarks you made about these ladies in your Church that belongs to Him. We should at least fear and repect God by respecting His people irrespective of how imperfect we may think they are. God doesn't see us through our imperfection. He sees us the ought the Blood of Christ.
Another thing I want to remind you about ladies and women is that God has a special place in His heart because of a number of reasons two of which is as follows:
1. The role a woman played in bringing the Messiaih to the world
2. They are weaker vessels. God protects the weak and underdog more than you can imagine.
So I find your piece distasteful, self-righteous and not very nice considering that you are a Christian. Unbelievers in this forum may hail you but am not sure if Jesus will be pleased.
God bless.

Dats nt d case in my own church o, in fact if u marry outside d chch, dey'll luk @ u lyk a sinner.
A friend of mine evn said der was a tym wen der wer so many single bros n sisters in d chch. D pastor said open ur eyes vry well. Ur spouse is in dis chch. B4 dey knw wot was happeni, dey startd announcin weddin ceremoney within 6mnts.
I also ink itsour mindset. A couple got married recently, ryt on d way to d reception, som pple startd sayin dey af been eyeing each oda sinc, jst bcoz dey attend d same parish n work @ d same place.

oluface: Well i can tell you boldly that it applies to every woman in my life including my family and yours is not execption. It happen even among them in church and in mosque. Once again its every Nigerian Woman hobby.

....its better to speak for yourself. Just to remind you that you know nothing of me or my family. You only know what YOU can do not what the next person can do. I say its sad you live in such a small world that all the women in your life are hypocrites. Your world is VERY SMALL.

God will deliver you from bitterness.

The bold part above are the kind of doctrines dat bore me in church.
Its jst a propaganda which d church uses to mk sure members stick to their spouse. (If they bliv God ordained marriage, its more like bliving pastor knws wts best). There is no one who knws wat God wnt on such matters.

Why do u have eyes and hears?
Oh... U wld go abt looking for who God wnts u to marry.
What if God doesn't wnt u to marry?

Drop those talks, and use ur eyes.
There is nothing spiritual abt choosing a wife, look for someone who fits in to ur plans and pray it works out.

There is verse in the Bible that says "he that findeth a wife..."

oluface: @SELFWORTH, do you know that only women understand women and that why they hate each other because of the hypocrite. They may smile at each other but behind that smile , there is Hell.


....The same applies to men.....it's ignorant to show expertise on women behaviour when you have no evidence to back up your assertion except innuendo.


This is a NL syndrome. There are women haters and men haters. They based thier arguments on one single event in their life.

I tell you you have seen nothing of the world if you think like that.

My church is on the contrary. Brothers marry sisters. Just dn't think cos she is in same church with you wud make her perfect. It's best to marry in ur church especially when the truth about what marriage is, is preached there. Don't allow fear of being castigated pull u down. If sis A say No, sis B might be re ready and wud show u green light. Go 4her if u like her such is life. Was it all d gals u approached accepted u? What makes u think the ones u see in church doesn't have feelings and choice?

I would. All of my previous relationships were serious - I hoped we'd get married. Apart from the last one, all of them were with girls I knew from church or school fellowship. Well, apart from when I messed around a little bit.

I think it's all about getting to know the person you're dealing with. People with all kinds of pasts and lives are in the Church, that's a fact. Same thing at work. Same thing at school. Same thing on the streets. You wanna build a life with anyone, you gotta take your time and get to know them and be sure that y'all are on the same page. Same principle, different day.
