He sent her to the UK and he stayed in south Africa, traveling the world without her in the end you heard the pains of the woman. She felt she is not having enough of the husband attention and caring. She even accused him of adultery which personally I don't believe such ever happened. I repeat pastor Chris whom I know and have met several times would never even contemplate of such.

When I got to that part in bold, I just shake my head.

Another sheep.
What do you even know about his personal life? Are you with him at all times?

Re: Couples Attending Different Churches: Word For You by Empredboy(m): 12:29pm On Apr 30, 2017
I broke up with my fiancee of 5years because we couldn't take a decision about our faith. She attended four square while I attend catholic. I thought she was going to become a Catholic not that i was selfish but because she couldn't answer my questions.
The questions were
(1) if We attend different churches which one will our children attend? She said anyone . But i said family that prays together...
(2) her family has attended different churches since their birth until she settled for four square what is the assurance that she won't change church in future? But she said she won't. After 6 month she changed to an unknown church because she said she wanted a banking job from the pastors wife who had connection in one of these banks. Abeg it's not worth trying

That is how people like op (Pentecostal stock) angry go about with their stupid religious opinion and destroying homes. Ex Governor Fashola a Muslim, is happily married to his Christian wife. I am yet to hear of divorce from their camp. I know a number of grand relatives who attend different churches till they passed away.

I know it is annoying, having experienced it first hand.

However, if the reasons for changing church is OK, no problems. I won't ever change churches cos of 'connection' etc.

But if you have a life that's currently mobile, you may experience the need to change.

Seriously? There are many things that keep a marriage. Attending the same church is only 0.5% of them. My wife is a devoted Catholic while I'm an ardent member of Christ Embassy. We've been together for years but have no reason to despise each others religious views. We pray and preach together at home. It's a matter of mature mindedness coupled with spiritual maturity.

Have you ever seen husband and wife attending different churches? I have. And it's the beginning of divorce. First of all couples need to realise that marriage is unity of the body. They have become one and none should divide them, not even a church membership.


The way and manner membership of divers churches is getting into the lives and marriages of several families in Nigeria and the world is alarming. Take for instance the marriage of one of the greatest preachers of our time pastor Chris of Christ Embassy, how his marriage hit the rock because of ignorance. He thought he was serving the living God and separated with his wife physically.

He sent her to the UK and he stayed in south Africa, traveling the world without her in the end you heard the pains of the woman. She felt she is not having enough of the husband attention and caring. She even accused him of adultery which personally I don't believe such ever happened. I repeat pastor Chris whom I know and have met several times would never even contemplate of such.


The point I am trying to make is, stop attending different churches husband and wife. If you are a pastor and you have branches, stay with your wife or husband in the same place. Hear the same message, pray the same prayer points and stay together. No man should divide them.


Just an advice oo. If you have any contrary view let me know.


Hello!

Never vouch for anything that blood runs within it. Never!

I think understanding is the main key to this, once the couple understand themselves things will go well with them but my question is this, What happens to the children if the man insist that the children will go to his church and you also aware that children are more closer to the Mother than the father.

If I should marry a girl outside the catholic faith, well we can get married in her church.. But the kids will be baptized and brought up in the catholic church and we both will attend same church ..

traditionally the marriage is done in the bride's church but you insisting that the children must be baptized catholic is plain selfishness and failure to compromise on your part. either two of you leave your church and go to another together or two of you alternate which child goes to which church on sunday and then later the child will choose. my dad is Baptist, my mum is redeemed when I went to baptist church at age 7. I hated it immediately and told my parents, later I stopped going to redeem and found a small pentecostal church which suited my needs.

people just carry this church matter for head like dandruff.

major causes of divorce are

*infidelity

* sexual incompabilty

*lack of trust

*finance

*infertility

btw, i have a neighbour who does not attend church but his wife and kids does.
They are still together after 15 years. The wife has chosen to love him the way he is.

No one knows what works and what doesn't in marriage. What actually kept mine might crush yours. It depends on mutual understanding and agreement. My mum attends RCCG, dad attends Deeper life. I don't go to Church at all. My siblings go to RCCG. They are the best couple I have ever seen. 27years and they are still together in love.
Abegi jare.
Same here. My Dad and Mom attended D.Life. My Dad called it quits with them when I was in high school. Now only Mom and last kid still goes there, the rest of us O.Y.O. Marriage still kicking strong. Distance matters though, out of sight sounds kinda terrifying to say the least. Boils down to individuals @ the end, they ought to find what suits them eventually.
27 no be small number oo...you go like share small gist na, make we learn small small. wink

you married a Muslim woman and you are a christian, because muslims don't allow their women to married outside their religion and tend to see a non muslim as an infidel, pls how were you able to conquer that? pls note am a christian and I mean no disrespect.
