Loool why? Please give reasons and case studies
I grew up as catholic,was a mass server,member of legion of mary ,etc but later began doubting many of the church's teachings which is little difference from Idol worship.No one preached to me I just realised that most terms used are derived from Roman idol worshippers since it's Roman Catholic church. If you've been in Pentecostal all your life,it will be difficult to pray together as family and this might affect your future children decision, which could lead to some of them being atheist. Catholic believe too many things that's the issue.

As a Catholic our mode of worship is entirely different from Pentecostal and many find it difficult coping elsewhere.. However, Would tell you, you are not in danger if she ticked all your boxes... Marry her!!!

Yes I know it's good to get a partner who aligns with same faith but aside that one has to look at personality of whom you're marrying.

She's Catholic and I'm not and she's a good lady. The condition she gave was that she can't leave her faith.

I've searched and she's the only one that ticked all the boxes aside the faith issue.

Go ahead. If she is a well tutored Catholic girl. I mean well trained in the Catholic faith, You will understand the true meaning of marriage. Catholics believe marriage is for better for worse. If she is not well trained, you are in for a disaster common to those who subscribe to woke ideology. i. e those who will divorce and re-marry at the slightest chance.

I got no choice

I believe you're a Christian, so, you should know that:
1)GOD is the creator of man and woman
2)GOD is the originator of marriage
3)Man and woman are spiritual beings (souls) clothed in human form made from dust.
4)Life is a spiritual journey.
5)Marriage is a spiritual journey.
6)The journey of life would end in one of the two places: Hell or Heaven.
7)Marriage is used to illustrate man and woman's spiritual journey on earth.
coolMarriage could determine where one's life journey ends.
9) Marriage as affirmed by God the Father, and the Son, Jesus Christ, is 1+1 =1

Therefore, I have the following questions and observations:

Did both of you get confirmation from God that you're meant for each other?

Both of you going to different churches for any reason is a negation of the divine equation of 1+1=1.

A woman's submission starts with her receiving God's confirmation to LEAVE and follow the man to whatever church he attends.

The church you attend as a couple is part of your understanding of the spiritual nature of marriage.

NB: Any intending Christian couple who accede to a partner going to another church as part of their premarital agreement definitely need to engage in a study of marriage institution as a Christian.

COUPLES GOING TO DIFFERENT CHURCHES ESPECIALLY THOSE ATTENDING DIFFERENT DENOMINATIONS WITH DIFFERENT DOCTRINES HAVE SET A TIME BOMB WAITING TO EXPLODE.

Marriage is a big risk....many have married the wrong people, even worse, many have married their mortal enemies.

If you are sure she's the right person for you, notwithstanding demonination_go for her.

You know nothing about catholism my dear friend. How does veneration of Mary and the saints, and many other practices and beliefs of the Catholic correlate with what Protestants believe? I am not saying that Catholics are hellbound or anything like that. If it denominations doesn't matter, what stopped the lady from joining the man in his church?
Same thing that stopped him from joining hers.

Nobody gives a damn

The fact that you can even bring this to the forum means you're not matured to dive into marriage.

You have a choice.

The worst thing in a family is a religious mismatch.

See wetin religion dey cause? All them Abraham and Moses no go through all these rubbish na we dey do ourselves.

She can't leave her faith? She's the only one? Ticked all the boxes? The signs are facing you now but you're daydreaming and then later you will write a long essay on how my wife is making me uncomfortable with her extreme religious practices or something related.

She should be willing to bend for you as her man else she's something else underneath and she's just using Catholic denomination to cover.

And the two shall become one. She's not ready to be "one" with you and you still can't find someone better suited?

As you wan start to dey submit to her you better just continue ooh... Don't come here to complain later. She done show you the direction and you done dey follow. Keep following her lead and dare not complain make thunder no kiss you
He is prepared. The aspect needed to be addressed is where do the children belong? The man's denomination or the woman's.

The price for what you are about to enter is huge. It will only work for you if you are a church goer and not really a christian i.e who do not intend to know more about God. They often refuse to change so as to remain in their sinful life of lying, manipulations, gossiping etc, and finally become spiritually useless to the family. The sacrifice of becoming born again in future is what they are not prepared to bear.
