. What happens to the part of the Bible that says 'we should not forsake the gathering of believers'
It is my understanding that there was no telecommunications, television, telepresence, telechat, telepromptings and telepreaching between 30BC and 1900AD, so it was necessary for brethrens to gather and exchange the message of the gospel. In 21st century, the telewares has more than tripled proselyting capabilities of evangelism. It is no more necessary to gather except may be for those Azonto dance moves and submitting of parts of your monthly income to the high-flying MEN of god.

Seriously this madness going on in the church has got to stop. What are we Nigerians turning the body of Christ into?

Why on earth will a Pentecostal Church not let its members to marry a Catholic person. The moment a wedding announcement is made in the church and one of the member is from a different church denomination, you start hearing murmuring going on. Seriously this rubbish has got to stop.

Look at a church like Jehovah witness, there is nothing on earth that will make them marry an outsider, never. The same thing with Deeper Life yet these same people want to come preach for you. Seriously, we have got to stop all this.

In the book of 1 Corinthians 12:27 & Romans 12:5, the bible talked about we being the body of Christ. So it is an error for any pastor to tell any member of his denomination not to marry an outsider. We must put an end to this madness for there is no where in the bible that says a person cannot marry outside his or her church. The bible never talked about denomination, the bible only talked about the church as the body of Christ.

And to you out there that wants to get married and you are letting this issue of church stop you, I sorry for you because you be original mumu.

In case you don't know, God will not judge you on judgement day based on the church you attended but he will judge you based on your works. So don't let anybody deceive you in the name of religion. Christianity is not a religion but a way of life.

So dear pastors make una talk the one una see.

Sorry for the interference. But, is it a sin to disobey God's instruction on a believer equally yoking oneself with an unbeliever? This is b/c I know that when God's word says 'do not do something,' God actually meant it.

It is really not funny when you see someone whom you feel you love, yet you can't marry her cos you aren't in the same faith with her. However, among JWs, marrying from another religion is a personal choice. No one disfellowships you for that, but you will surely not find it easy in that house.

But when you read 1cor 7:39, about marrying only in the lord, what do you think it means?

why this ranting here? If a Pentecostal marry a Roman Catholic how will they be praying at home? There are many things to consider when getting married. think about Life after the wedding day. Check all the families where parents attend different churches the spiritual life of their children is always unbalanced.

Marriage is more than a man and a woman coming to together in a contract. Unless we want to marry in the American style

Re: This Madness On Marriage Has Got To Stop In The Church. by waldigit: 4:00am On May 18, 2015
Pls let me add my voice as one who has experienced all these. This is in the church today bcause of carnality that has been prophesised by Christ and Paul. Church ministry was an invention of belivers as means to achieve the objective of FOLLOW UP. But greed and other vices make pple begin to abuse it.
Issue of marriage discrimination is a personal opinion of church ministry pple. But are not sincere to let their subject know this thus making it appear as it is from the Holy Spirit.
Hence, the intending couple has the responsibility of doing their spiritual and personal due deligence before getting married. Paul was very sincere on some sensitive issues on marriage by letting the church know that some of what he said was personal opinon and not God commandment. The Church can only guide the onus is for pple to make sure they spiritually mature before marriage adventure.
Local assemblies AKA denominations is an invntion of carnality into the body of Christ. The real church exist accross the various denominations. The instruction from the Lord is that you should marry from the Body of Christ. Hence you are free to marry from any denomination but its your responsibility to know that you are marrying from the Church AKA body of Christ.

POINT 1
-------------
It's defo easier to marry someone of d same religious/doctrinal background if u want to b happy in ur spiritual life.
E.g. There's this girl I know whose father is d priest of a 'church' that believes in and still practices old testament blood/animal sacrifices.
Shocking?
When the Bible tells us in Hebrews 9:12 & 10:14 that Christ has put an end to all sacrifices wt the eternal sacrifice of himself?
What happens to that sister who ends of marrying such a man?

Also, I hv a 7th day Adventist friend, who by their teaching, forbids several foods despite the Bible in 1Timothy 4:4 plainly stating concerning foods that EVERY creature of God is good and NOTHING is to be refused inasmuch as u pray before eating it?
NB: I kept mentioning sisters cos dt r at d receiving end of d situation and "must attend their husbands' churches."
Summarily it's simple. Marrying fr d same/similar christian denomination is d BEST WAY to go

Is it that there r no good marriage materials in ur denomination?
Is d condition that deplorable?
Then the clergy of ur denomination shd b called to question.

POINT 2
-------------------
Concerning calling people original mumu, and u claim to be an apologist of non-denominationalism.
How do u expect them sisters to gree for u with all this cursing?
Marriage is not by force

POINT 3
-------------
So u r still on this cliche that "Christianity is not a religion but a way of life".
That line is so 1800.
I don't wanna waste time typing hence i searched out these links for u
Read the NIV Bible, James 1:25-27
