You must Wed in the church, any marriage that is not ordained by God through a priest is not recognized by God. |

Its simple. Which type of marriage do we see in the bible? How did Isaac and d rest got married. Parent or wat we called traditional is the one recognized. Church is not suppose to b a marriage rather blessing. A good pastor wll first ask u if u fulfilled traditional b4/he pray for u. If u don't no genuine pastor will go ahead. 2 Likes |

Wedding is a cultural function not a religious one. There's no record of any church wedding in the bible, it's an invention of English tradition. White wedding is purely English tradition 4 Likes |

zionmde: Oh really traditional marriage is not valid in the eyes of God thats a first. Where I come from there's no diff btwn trad marriage and bride price payment , the list is brought and everything is settled that same day no long wahala. Now even if for some reason it happens in your culture are you saying God does not honor that marriage that the marriage is not valid in the eyes of God. I know that churches (my church advises )couples getting married during counsellinh to ensure they avoid all forms of libations and alcohol during their traditional stuff. If the marriage has been sealed when the bride price has been paid(which we both agree on) why any need for another form of marriage. Bros hope you know that the oath taken in registry and in church have the same spiritual and legal consequences, are you aware that churches have been licensed by govt to wed and its that same cert they give you at the registry they will give in church. Hope you also know that a marriage done in church can be dissolved by a law court( not an advocate of divorce anyway) The oath taken in registry and a licensed church has the same consequences legally and spiritually if the oath is broken. If its because of the fact that registry marriage can be dissolved in court that you feel its not accepted in the eyes of God, church weddings can also be dissolved in the law court. But our discussion shouldn't even be about divorce anyway because its biblically frowned at. Pastoral blessings I agree, church wedding (which is feferity) I agree but saying being wedded at the registry is not valid in Gods eyes (biblically)you have to convince me more. 3 Likes |

zionmde: There's no such thing as a church wedding in the Bible. Family elders exchanged sandals at the city gate to formalize the wedding before the celebrations. Point me to one place in the Bible where they were at a temple, synagogue or church for a wedding. I'm waiting. 5 Likes |

Was the first wedding ever done between Adam and Eve took place in the Church? All Adam paid was Bride Price with his ribs. And because we do not have such power as God- that is why it's paid with mostly money today. In some cultures,it's paid with some years of service just like Jacob served his in-law for 14 years. In some cultures it is the girl that pays the Bride price. White Wedding in Africa is simply church blessings when the traditional wedding is duly done. Court wedding is just to legalize the union (ie to have government approval) that's when even most Churches do issue both Certificates (both Court and Church), while others give only the Court one. 1 Like |

Until we realise that the so called church wedding aka white wedding is the western version of a traditional wedding, we will continue attributing it as "God's way", and I really don't blame most of us, history is just lost to us and we have become comfortable basing our "facts" on "if it as been said & done over time, it must be right or the right way to go". God blesses individual accordingly not by our works but by grace, a church is only a structure, God resides in us all. 2 Likes |

zionmde:. You are highly ignorant! Trad marriage is the same as white wedding. There's nothing like church marriage! Africans and their ignorance and copy copy attitude plus inferiority complex. Trad wedding is the Paramount marriage practice which is recognized by God and Man. Every other forms of marriage... wether white or Court is just a waste of time and money. The wedding Jesus attended in caanan was it a church wedding or a trad wedding? Did you read about anything like church wedding in your Bible? 4 Likes |

Even if you only do traditional wedding, it is acceptable. Pay the bride price and let both families approve of it. You are safe. 1 Like |
