My pastor called me yesterday after bible study that God told him that God told him that I should get married to one sister in my church (name withheld) but I have never for once had any feeling for this lady so-called sister! Can I go ahead by marrying her or disobey my pastor, as for me I have somebody in my hearth.

As long as u av never thot abt her in that light, i dont think its ok for u to go ahead and marry her. But just to be on the safe side, pls go ahead and seek God's face concerning it. All the best.

Pray about it yourself and follow your heart.

Unless you believe that your pastor is the Alpha and Omega!

A few questions at the poster

1. Are you finanacially well off ?
2. Is your pastor aware of your financial status ?
3. Is the sister getting towards the dangerous age of thirties ?
4. Is your Pastor aware that you have somebody in your heart ?
5. What is the relationship between your pastor and the sister ?

The reason for these questions is simple: Just hoping your Pastor is not trying to match a sister to a brother he thinks has got it.

Your Pastor may hear from God but he is not God. If you are a christian, talk to God and let Him lead you to the right woman.
You are the one who will live with the girl you marry not your pastor. You therefore should be doubly sure of who you marry and not just rely solely on what your Pastor says. He is human and not infalliable.

All the same, pray about it and try being friends with the sister in question. Your pastor just might be right. I am not saying he is right.

hmm, na wa o! and where does the issue of love come up?
or your pastor doesnt beleive in love?
because he is a pastor doesnt mean he can take over the running of peoples emotion. leave religious emotions out of this. you may end up committing even more sin by marrying someone you dont love and cheating on her( not to say some men dont cheat on the person they say they love).
but i think your happiness is the ultimate concern.

its a joke that a pastor tried to link a brother with a facially challenged (ugly) sister, saying it was Gods instruction, but our brother rejected the wonderful vision, and nothing happened. do you think the pastor hasnt spoken with the sister about getting you to marry her? pls dont be played like a chess game. pastors are human too, and can play human pranks too. its not as if the pastor cant go home and leave church bussiness one day.

lmfao!

What do you have to lose? If you are not seeing anyone, get to know her and take it from there.

guy where ur church dey i wan come o make ur pastor give me wife, shebi sampling is allowed

@ Topic
NO! Absolutely not. He is NOT your God.

Jeebus! What is this?

Na wa Ooo. . . pastors

Yes, all these ritualist churches

My dear, pray to your God and not just do anything you migt regret later o

It is morally wrong and spiritually ignoble for your pastor to INSTRUCT you to marry a girl. The right thing is for you to hear from God (I presume you have a relationship with God) and get confirmation of what you already heard from your pastor. My candid opinion is dis-countenace such BALAAM INSTRUCTION, and move on with your life. Cheerio.

I've never heard of anything like that before. It should be you that is given a sign to marry this woman, and you should at least "date" the girl before you consult your pastor about marrying her. lol I guess your pastor wants his church to be fruitful and multiply

sometimes i called dis kind of stuff arrangy

the gurl likes u n told the pastor,

kpolli:

the gurl likes u n told the pastor,

Thought so too

    Is the sister getting towards the dangerous age of thirties ?

kai women don suffer o!!! so thirty is now a dangerous age

No way! that's bribery and corruption in da church. The gurl has played some runs at ya back.

serious shit

Some folks are so messed up. Ur pastor telling u who to marry, thats just so lame.

if God wants u to marry her, he will tell u not tell ur pastor to tell u, since u are the one involed. God makes direct calls abeg. so tell ur pastor ur fone is yet to ring, till then, bone the guy!

@poster
for what now? Na you choose him wife for am? Why him go come choose for you ?
Shebi na vision him see for you, make him wait make you see your own.

NO he can not.

Can you instruct your pastor to choose a wife from his gathering?
Why isn't God talking to you?

Guy, i know it sucks but,
You can go ahead and marry the lady if the pastor is truly your pastor (in its entirety).
If the pastor[b] is for real [/b] and you are blind and deaf (spiritually) it may be your counsel from God, though I'd advice a confirmation

[color=#006600][/color] @poster.U beta run very fast because i c no reason why u'r nt avin direct contact wit ur God rather than ur pastor as intermediary.We are al human being,som are just opportuned to pastor over others which does not mean superiority/perfection.It is a matter of choice&moreover pretence is rampant in d fellowship al in d name of working 4 God,they turn out to b somtin else wen they get home.Dont follow my pastor say,and if u do u're on ur own.
