In Nigeria, the extent to which some of us Christians go to just to please their pastor in the lord is a bit alarming.

We tend to believe everything they say even at detriment of ourselves and our families.

In 2020, I was told by a pastor that I should not marry my present wife as according to him, he saw in a vision that our marriage will be disaster.

Fast forward to 2022, deciding to go against him has been one of the best decisions of my life.

You needed to see the look of shock on my wife's face recently when I told her about the vision.

One thing is certain women are more likely to be cajoled by all this their visions, which causes unnecessary problems in our homes.

We should all learn to practice Christianity with some level of common sense, especially when you take into consideration several homes and families that have been broken because of one vision or another.

Good...... but you can also say it like this....

Practice every Religion with Common Sense

Did God send you to seek the advise of a pastor before marriage to begin with?

Look, you are obviously one of those who listen to and even obey men you call pastors, when God warned all against such acts to begin with. So be sure you have in fact rid yourself of what is idol worship before you continue.

Rightly said. Thank God you went ahead with your decision

Stop assuming, no pastor can cajole me into doing what i dont want to do, that doesnt stop me from listening to them.

Oh, so you listen to them but only pick and chose what to obey and what not to? Isn't that equally sad? I mean for the fact that you assume yourself different from those who obey their pastors all of the times?

Thats why I said applying common sense matters alot, instead of following them blindly.

Where is the common sense in obeying your pastors, ordinary men like yourself, where God is concerned?

What a determined man you are. Take note that if it were your wife that got that message from a pastor, im sure you wont be together today.

Exactly, we should be all be careful, even as we know no one is perfect.
