OP, Though nice question but I will suggest u follow your BELIEF. I worship with Deeper Life and I am married. The essence of informing your pastors or leaders is for guidance. You may finds it very absurd and obsolete telling someone u want to marry a lady. But let me tell u, the pastor is just a third party whose duty is to guide. The Marriage committee are meant to put you through marital doctrine and germain issues in marriage once the two of you have been certified fit to marry each other.
I never regret ever getting married in Deeper Life and I wish you all the best.

Nice One, I don't know if it's biblical, because they will tel you that you must follow biblical standards. It's like this, the pastor will confront the sister with a mask identify of the brother and see if God has reveal the name of the brother to the sister

sammykess:
Dear Landers, is it morally right first to inform your pastor as regards your intention to marry a sister in the church before you approach the lady for marriage, am saying this because Most churches see it as offensive, I want sample opinion nairalanders

sammyk sounds like a deeper life. well I was delayed unnecessarily because I told her first and she accepted. when I was asked in the committee of elders the reason for telling her first, I told them it's because I don't want to be rejected, cos I have seen many brothers close to me rejected by sis.

surprise us say something more resonable,fool of our time

sammykess:
^^^^some churches go as far as suspending the person

Edkoliba:
Is OK to let your Pastor know,as your spiritual father and also depending on his spiritual level and understanding. Telling him is for him to pray with u and also for good counselling. If you are a True Christian especially a worker in the church. It's Important that he knows.

You have to inform the pastor first so that if the pastor is dating the girl you want to marry, the pastor can make some necessary adjustments.

Now, if the pastor has other girls and can sacrifice the girl to you, he will allow her to marry you.

If the pastor suspects you to be a stubborn person, he will stop the girl from marrying you and he will make it look as if the choice from the girl.
This is so, because you, as a stubborn person, will stop the girl from continuing dating the pastor after marriage.

Furthermore, if the pastor considers you as a weakling, he will give his full consent immediately with the believe that in a week, he will get 5 days se.x, you will get a day as the husband while the girl rest on the seventh day.

I have said it before and I'm saying it again, if you approach a lady with the intention of marriage, and she takes you to her pastor instead of her parents, my brother, kekwee nkwucha.

All this "I need my Pastor's validation before I propose a woman" is bullcrap. And I see that only people with insecurity issues are usually fond of involving their pastors in things that can practically be solved with common sense

Some will even tell you according to their doctrine, your pastor is responsible for wooing a lady on your behalf. Soro niyen?

Baba Adeboye said, shine your eyes when picking a wife and never let any pastor recommend a wife for you. He said the highest a pastor can do is to counsel you. Finish!!!

sammykess:
I want to know if it's biblical broo, Good one from Baba Adeboye

SlayQueenSlayer:
My girl is fond of bringing up her pastor's name when we discuss important issues. I made it clear to her that I am having non of that. I am not marrying her pastor's daughter so I won't see him. My business is with her family.

My sister, the things I read here. I tell you, religion have dislocated some people's brain.

KenModi:


I am Catholic and I dnt give two flying fvcks abt the opinion of my priest on the woman I intend spending the rest of my life with.

Abi na d fada/pastor wan marry d woman??

If my church refuse to join us in holy matrimony or even cause a delay in our schedule because I didnt inform them prior to wooing my lady, I go just go find any bible "believing" church around my area.

If those ones no gree to, I go simply pay my wife bride price, carry am enta house; after all na so our ancestors do am before oyibo people impose christianity on us.

Livefreeordieha:
