::-- You know your bible and you know exactly what i was trying to convey. My comment was generalized and not directed at you sir. I am sorry if you feel offended. I am not religious but do not like people who compromise the standard of God to please the society of whoremongers.

SirGoldEjike:
Its well! May God continue to keep us standing in the Truth! How's are the brethren over there especially our Youths?

michony505:
Most black countries are failing becos we STIGMATIZE wrongly. How can u use one case to generalize all? When I joined DL I realised that what most ppl say about the Church ( even my parents and siblings) are BLUNTLY WRONG! this always pains me. I remember a white man that wrote a book on DL, the man came to Nigeria here study the church very well, went to some of the programs and came out with a write up on DL. Which is almost correct(90%) and this man is not a member. But the ones brought up and breed here still goes on with Fake info about DL becos of natural hate. MOST PEOPLE LOVES THIS WORLDLY FASHION SO MUCH THAT EVEN IF GOD COMES DOWN TO CORRECT THERE WILL STILL BE HATE SPECCH AGAINST HIM!

JoshMedia:

and you think the Church mandated her to do so?
Have attended about two Deeper Life wedding, Babe, What I saw wasn't the shit people post here, most of you guys are just exaggerating.
What if I wasn't close to some Deeper Life Members?
I will have to believe those crap?

cosmatika:
Wat is ur definition of dress well? Hope U know dat ur mother Mary is not an Olosho. Igbo ppl say dat "onye chowa ilú nwanyi, óchówa nke ana alú alú". Meaning dat wen a guy wants to marry, he starts looking for d marriageable ones. I drop my pen here

Na lie ! U people don come against. Na catholic be that

These are all different and beautiful pictures of sifferent deeper life weddings (including d interior decor), so if u don't see a high level of modesty which the Bible talks about, then I don't know what else your looking for (except to condemn people and get condemned too).
The bottom line is the word MODESTY.... People do not have to model their appearance according to what some celebrity (who doesn't know God) will wear.
The big question too should always be "WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?". So if Christ were in your shoes, would he do what you want to do (on your wedding day, as the case may be)? If you can't answer the question aright, then you are about to do something wrong.

And as for Mr Tosyne2much, I would advice you don't say things you don't know (or things you only see at face level). Be sure before you make your assumptions or jump into conclusions.

GOD BLESS YOU ALL. AMEN

When I joined deeper life some years back before leaving for my life, I gave out all my beautiful clothes to please my so called deeper life brethren who were not pleased with them but I saved my earrings and jewelries. I was born again, very zealous and was ready to give my life for these people but they were still not pleased because I still had my earrings which they saw as a sign of worldliness.

When I understood the grace of God in truth and how it resonated with my salvation experience, I came to see what deeper life stands for. Deeper life stands for the best self righteous persons, moralists, hypocrites and not for Christ. Deeper life stands for anti Christ, hatred for the gospel. Deeper life means the congregation of those who deem Christ's death on the cross as nonsensical, foolishness and vain. In deeper life you are craftly and gradually taught to trust in your goodness and not in Christ's goodness. You are even taught how to smartly call your self righteous works the work of God's grace. You are subtly taught to hate the grace of God and rely on your strength.

I did not get saved in deeper life. I didn't even get saved in a "church" but all my stay in deeper life they gave me the impression that they were the only Christians in the world (O my, and it's not even a Christian church), imagine that kind of pride!

After leaving deeper life, I studied Mr Kumuyi's biography, I read how he became a "Christian and a pastor" and I wasn't surprised. He was just a good boy with charisma who knew about Bible stories and people thought that qualified him to become a Christian and a minister.

It is not the wedding that matters.What really matters is the kind of life the couples will live inside their matrimonial home.Of what benefit will it be to us girls if we have the best wedding and then begin preparing for divorce after three months.Abeg I will gladly accept this type of wedding any time any day

Well, well, well, a Deeper Life bashing thread where many have vented their hate for the Church!!! Reading some comments here, I see people who are :
1. misinformed and do not want to correct their perception by investigation;

2. once members but left due to offences by members/leaders but are still hurting and need some inner healing; root of bitterness defiling many!

3. originally born in Deeper life but grew up with great resentment against the Church because their parents/leaders went about certain things the wrong way and till date, they cant shed that.

4. people who heard that the church emphasizes holiness and joined hoping to be at once surrounded by angels hence when they were disappointed by someone, left but are still bitter!

5. people who are religious but somehow believe Deeper Life forwarded the motion in 1 John 2:15-17 and since they lacked grace to obey pulled out to seek for people who will tell them grace implies that God depreciates certain part of His Word (God Forbid!).

6. others sound as though they will be forced or abducted to marry there .

Corollary? Let's focus on the weightier matters of Grace Titus 2:11-14, Holiness Hebrews 12:14 and Power Acts 1:8. rather than fiddling here with non-essentials while the World burns!!!

P.S. for those who are bitter or resentful, settle it and empty your heart; remember He that hates his brother is a murderer and no murderer has Eternal life 1 John 3:15(paraphrased) and Jesus (If you call Him Lord) said:

35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”

Matthew 18:35(read the whole passage to get the background that led to this conclusion)

kristen12:
Deeper life yesterday, deeper life today. Wetin the church do una na? I've never heard them forcing anyone to attend the church or get married there so what's the fuss? Members of the church aren't complaining to you guys, the enjoy the church like that, please you guys should let them be. If you can't stick to their rules and regulations then quit. Its not by force.

Mbok leave them alone with their bigs skirts and coats/ suits. The complain is becoming boring and irritating.

obas01:
No wonder.. !
I am not too surprise with the kind of bad news we hear everyday about marriage failures here and their.. Bad news associated with the present day children and even families. It's now getting so unbearable.. I even over heard a conversation in bus days ago ...a Lady advising another with the saying: sincerely speaking no marriage this days has Joy �.
But I want to believe few of us who no how beautiful Godly ordain marriage looks like, The joy and happiness attached to marriage..
That nothing on earth is as beautiful as having Godly marriage.
I pray to God to bless those who desire God ordain marriage with one.
Marriage is not about what majority think it's..
Lord take us back to the Bible .. Faith of our fathers living still.. Faith of our father holy Faith.
Marriage is not about what you wear on your wedding day. The huge money spent. The type of guest present. The expensive Venue and hall that was use.
Just imagine a marriage (ceremony ) that does not glorify God and we are expecting from it Gods glory.. We human can be funny
Mind you OP ..Deeperlife will NEVER STOP ANY ONE FROM ENTRING INTO IT WEDDING VENUE

The normal thing is to say "You may kiss the bride"

Youths still attend deeper life?, Mehn that church can make someone lose social orientation, when I still dey attend, na only Monday bible study dey make sense, deeper life is meant for the oldies now

dbynonetwork:


Prodigal daughter...
I have never accepted makeup....
I love ladies without makeup......

I see nothing wrong with deeperlife wedding, it's all about not conforming to the world in all you do...

femijck:
My cousin recently got married to a slay Queen who wanted an extravagant wedding just because she claimed to have attended alot of her friends wedding and she doesn't want anything less.....when did marriage become a competition? No wonder guys are not getting married anymore and single expired slay queen everywhere because it has become a thing for the rich...OLOHUNSHOGO

My cousin's parent couldn't afford to support him financially so he had to spend almost all his savings and even asked for help from the family...but help wasn't coming much enough.

Wedding day fast approaching and there was still alot to be done. The lady advised that my cousin sell his Land so they can have d money for their wedding and that was when he realised where his life was heading to but was too late. He's got a small car but d girl didn't suggest he sells that .

Marriage gone now, my cousin can no longer support his sick mother, retired father and kid sisters.No support as little as it may sound for his family anymore probably because he's paying up debt Incured during his wedding or whatever.

Guys use Ur head...oju tio ba ni kale, o ni fi aro yopin (d eyes that will last till old age,will not develop issue from infancy).
Now with d naija economy,no job is secure.I pray he doesn't loose his job or else girl is next on the list.

If we are copying d westerners, then why can't we copy their wedding. U will hardly see more than 50 people attending their wedding even though they're rich. They will rather spend d money on holiday together rather than a lavish wedding....empty drum makes d loudest noise......and ugly girls use d most expensive make ups
