With keen interest i've both listen to all your nerrations and advices but i am here to tell you that YES it's POSSIBLE because there is nothing God cannot do if actually you are mean to be with each other there is thing that can come in between you or there is nothing anybody can do about it even her parent that you think they may be an obstacles in your relationship they will be the once supporting you. Note to us it's IMPOSSIBLE but with GOD ALL is POSSIBLE including your relationship. So my dear brother, please don't be discourage or be dismay God is ALL in ALL He can do ALL, He Has been doing it before so He will not stop doing it just because of you. The only thing i will like to advice you on or to tell here is, please report this matter to God by saying "Let your will be done" remember Christ at Gethsemane at the hour of transfiguration that He learned to admit the will of the Father by saying Father not my will but yours be done before Elias and Moses appear and the power of God came from above to empower Him instantly the scripture said His garment change to white. So that's what i want you to acknowledge and admit the will of God in your relationship, i tell when you done that you will testify the wonders of God.
Thank you and bless You.

rabzy:

In the Bible he quoted it mentioned marry only in the lord, there was nothing like work in the lord there, so if the bible mandated them to work only in the lord, then they would probably do that. So that analogy does not fly. Then remember in his explanation, the israelites don't marry outside their religion but they trade with others.
The Major reasons the Jews were hated all thru the centuries was because they believed their religion was the true religion handed by God and so they do not want any interference or corruption of it, therefore any community they are, they stand out as different, they dress differently eat differently, marry only themselves. The early church was also like that, they stood out for miles from others they became easy target.
Now everything is blended, no one knows one from the other, the only people that are quite different are the Jehovah's withnesses and they have become easy targets.

Answer this question, Is it only what is in the Bible they do?

[left][/left][color=#006600][/color] my dear, i dont think there is anything wrong with marrying a witness. Though you both are from different denomination but its the same God. You can still marry her and allow her worship in her church and u in yours too. As i'm speaking with you, my fiancee his mum is a witness whereas his dad attends Royal House of Grace and there both leaving wella without probs. LOVE conquers all

Yes, with God all things are possible but wisdom is also profitable to direct. Can two walk together except they AGREE?. The lady is not the only female on the face of the earth, there is no one woman/ man for one person. Why people deliberately put themselves into problem/ undue stress is beyond me.
Re: What Is Wrong With Marrying A Jehovah's Witness? by Mrsguru: 10:27am On Jul 22, 2011
First of all Jehovah's Witnesses are not bothered if you all say that their beliefs are wrong, they try their best to follow the bible principles closely and the examples set by Jesus when he was on earth. so if you say they're wrong for insisting on marrying only people who share their beliefs and way of life then that's just your opinion, and popular opinion isn't always right. Please take note the words of Jesus in Matt. 7:13, 14 ''Go in through the narrow gate; because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction, and many are the ones going in through it; whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life, and few are the ones finding it.”

Of a truth, Jehovah's Witnesses are usually happy when most people criticize them in this manner because it makes them experience the fulfilment of Jesus' words during the sermon on the mount. “Happy are you when people reproach you and persecute you and lyingly say every sort of wicked thing against you for my sake. Rejoice and leap for joy, since your reward is great in the heavens.” (Matt. 5:11, 12)

This thread should not be derailed into a discourse on whether Jehovah's Witness is good or bad! The OP just needs advice on pursuing a relationship with someone with religious doctrine different from his.

Sometimes we hold on to what we are supposed to let go off. We don't know the plan God has for us. There are somethings in life you just have to let go even if it's very difficult.
Re: What Is Wrong With Marrying A Jehovah's Witness? by Mrsguru: 10:40am On Jul 22, 2011
To be very honest with you poster, a practising JW girl will never be happy to be with you in a marriage if you both have different beliefs. She may marry you now out of passion or infatuation but fews years down the line after the heat of passion has cooled off, physical attraction has reduced and stress of life in the world begin to set in, you'll start having problems because she'll start having feelings of emptiness and she'll feel guilty for not sticking with the congregation full time. She'll then open up to her family again and begin taking steps to practise her faith fully then confusing sets in for you as she'll also want your kids to follow her to the Kingdom hall.
Honestly it is a bad idea to marry a witness girl if you dont agree with their beliefs and way of life.

Dont you think yourself ABSURD for drawing such irrelevant conclusion? What has that got to do with the TOPIC? Do you just post because you can? How many times have Jehovah's Witnesses been in the NEWS for the wrong reasons? Like the Boko haram? Have you seen them as a"SECT" acting violently? If your answer to any of the above questions is NO, then learn how to contribute to issues logically, and if you cant, just SHUT IT! undecided

We're in the same shoe. My boyfriend is a muslim but not a fanatic. Yoruba by tribe. He has no problem with me being a witness. To him, i can practice my religion as long as i remain a good wife but i'm scared if his family will allow him. Although his mum is a strong CAC member. I don't know how to go about this. We are really in luv.
