WELL SAID @ lady - hands down

The major reason why there are issues whenever a catholic and a non-catholic(basic christian,pentecostal,anglican,baptist,etc. . .) want to get married is because of how  2corinthians 6:14-18 is interpreted by different people.

And maybe also Amos 3:3

2Corinthians 6:14-18
(14)  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
(15)  And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
(16)  And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
(17)  Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
(18)  And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Amos 3:3
(3)  Can two walk together, except they be agreed?


In reference to 2Corinthians above, unbelievers are people who do not acknowledge or believe in Jesus Christ; that do not believe he died for the sins of mankind to bring salvation to all.

But believers are those who believe in Jesus Christ and acknowledge the fact that he died for the sins of mankind.

Catholics believe this,pentecostals believe this,baptists believe this;. . . most christian denominations believe this and that is what makes them believers.
The fact that they are broken up into different sects/denominations/doctrinal differences is as a result of different approaches to understanding the word of God; but that does not rub them off from the fact that they are all believers as they all have the common denominator of belief in Christ.
For example,myself, Zikky, Kunleoshob,Enigma,nuclearboy,etc do get at loggerheads with people like Joagbaje,Tonye-T,Olaadegbu,image123 over some differences in our approach towards our faith in Christ; but we(i.e. the former group[ttalks,zikky,kunle,nuclear])  do not consider them(ie. the latter group[joagbaje,tonye,Olaadegbu,image]) to be unbelievers.
We consider them to be believers since we all believe in Jesus Christ and his sacrifice for us. 

Now the question is: How can Christians of different doctrinal approaches to worshipping God have a marriage that wouldn't be rocky?
One straight answer(although not the main one  ): Which marriage doesn't go through rocky situations at one point or the other?!

Anyway, the question leads us to Amos 3:3 as posted above.
Before people can decide to get married, they must conciously and unconciously agree about certain things in their lives, don't they?!
Well, this is the case even within couples of the same doctrinal approaches. So should it be with couples of different doctrinal approaches towards God.

As long as a couple who have doctrinal differences in their approach towards God can reach an agreement on how they can live peacably with each others' differences, then they can walk together(they can marry). it is all a matter of reaching an agreement.
That is the point in Amos 3:3; as long as there is agreement, things can happen wonderfully.

Definitely,in one way or another, the agreement could be broken one way or another by one party or the other in the marriage as time goes on and could lead to problems. But that is where love plays a major role; it would lead the offending party to remember the agreement they both had and make amends so as to return to be operating under the agreement and the promotion of peace.

It is just like our relationship with God; we are under an agreement(the new covenant) with God.But once in a while, we do step out of line(breaking the agreement in some way or the other) but we do find our way back to peace with God by making amends and seeking forgiveness and repenting.
And thus putting ourselves back within the confines of the agreement and benefitting from it.

It is only when an agreement cannot be reached that marriage between such couples cannot take place.
Ofcourse, . . . . who gets married when there is no agreement in the first place? 

There is no hard and fast rule when it comes to issues of marriage; the outcome is always determined by the couple(those involved in it).
That's the way I see this issue.

right now i am facing the same problem i am a pentecostal and my guy is a catholic he has made it clear he needs me to convert to catholic just confussed .

@pinklady4o
I was faced with the same problem too. The girl I really love with all my heart and who loves me as much was refused marriage to me by her parents because I was a Catholic. I advice you to start attending catholic functions, open your mind so as to be able to give a fair appraisal of whether you would be able to function well spiritually in the catholic church or not. If you discover that you can't, better call it quit or make him understand and ask him to take you as you are. If on the contrary you feel you can function well, then go ahead with it.

If you eventually become a catholic, i advice you join the Catholic charismatic renewal immediately, that would help you alot.

I wish you good luck.

@ Clown you are right it is really heart broken but at the end of the day we are all worshiping one God but all the same thanks for Ur suggestion i will look for a catholic charismatic church.

The Catholic Charismatic Renewal is not a church but a group within the Catholic Church. If your guy is not a member, you can persuade him to join, in that way, you two would work on the same spiritual plane.

Goodluck.

@clown Thanks for letting me know is just a group and not a church.

Little boy: “Are you a Catholic, a Pentecostal or a Presbyterian?”

Little girl: “None of the above. We belong to a different abomination.”

Y mi??
What I think about the marriages is that we should marry
a christian..bcoz God sees the heart of a man..I can't say
what we follow is pleased by our lord..marry a guy who
loves jesus from the core of heart..then only he'll be
able to love u.nd other religions don't know jesus so
marrying a Catholic doesn't matter.. I only have to say
follow nd love christ..nd he'll lead u..
