So church wedding is now more import and than the one Christ in himself attended. If your parents come together and bless you, whether the churchl likes it or not you are married. It's saddening that our parents have been deceived by churches to wait until the church says yes before they can accept that their child is married. I know a church that even after the traditional marriage, the wife and the husband can't meet except under the arrangement of the church until they are wedded in the church. |

zionmde: Please, don't misquote the Bible. The verses quoted has to do with believers settling dispute or matters in the court when it can be done amongst believers as it only brings ridicules to the name of God. E.g power tussle in the church and other spiritual issues which should have been handled by the church. @OP, marriage started with the instruction that "for this reason shall a man leave his father's house and BE JOINED to his wife". "BE JOINED" means there must be someone in between to agree that these two can be one. Now, this means if both parents agree (Traditional) to the union, it is fine. If it is by the laws of the land (Registry), it is fine and if this is done by church, it is also okay. The key is that someone must do the joining. 2 Likes |

Cyynthia:you need to go back to your bible sister. God will not be happy swing that his children have been led astray. God can bless your marriage whether you did it in church or court provided your parents approve of it and bless you. Any other thing is just to make our church memebere and pastors happy |

PrecisionFx:now ime ego is not translated traditional marriage is it? is it not Igba Nkwu that is traditional marriage. Am not here to argue all those church wedding stuff, i maintain my stance, God,'s seal of marriage is payment of bride price, prophetic blessing of the marriage is very necessary, Court marriage is not acceptable. |

zionmde: That's why I said it's a choice. But you made it look like it was the norm in all igboland. Some people pay dowry and use the traditional marriage as the reception for their church wedding. It's all by choice and not cast in stone. 1 Like |

arsenic33:Yes it's. The important aspect of wedding is the bride price. International Standard Version of Genesis 34:12 No matter how big or how extensive your demands are for a dowry and wedding presents from me, I'll provide whatever you ask. Only give me the young lady to be my wife." So church wedding or whatever wedding you call it isn't scriptural. Take note in whatever wedding you part take and you're pronounced married, it's sealed for life |

zionmde:I'm igbo too and if you like carry all the mmaya to the wife's family, but if you don't pay bride prize you have done nothing. The payment of bride prize is the main thing Other things are just what people have attached to it and it's also determined by choice. |

Re: As A Christian, Is Court Wedding In Place Of Church Wedding Acceptable By God? by NifemiOlu(m): 1:12pm On Sep 10, 2017 |
For the umpteenth time, there's nothing like church marriage in the Bible. The famous wedding Jesus attended was a traditional wedding likewise other prophets before him. Court, traditional or sky wedding is valid in the sight of God |

People really need to know the word of God and not just go about with their heads filled with what their church says. Many Christians are losing their souls to their churches. Remember, God won't judge you based on your church but on his words that he has given to you freely and which you have decided to ignore. From the comments here, the can see that some people prefer going to church that knowing the word of God. |

MaziOmenuko:Yes both are traditional rites but Igba nkwu is not necessary, it is not recognized by God. Ibu mmanya is occassion for bride price payment which is the only thing God recognizes.a They are two different things and can be done in one day or separate day. So wat is ur point of argument with me |

Lol. Have see this kind post on nairaland about 6-7 time, if i may ask why are you people against church Marriage? Maybe because they are against your fornication act by not joining anyone that is pregnant out of wedlock. And for the op, you claim after 6 months lecture there marriage is crash. Can you peace give me the statistics of failed marriage under court marriage to that of church marriage. peace |
