To you, God is only meant for Christians. I hope someday you will wake up from your divine slumber. God is God of all not God of Christians. And mind you religion is a tool for seperation to create the perception of “we” and “them”

That’s what your have just exhibited. To you, you’re the believer because you’re Christians, and the Muslims are the unbeliever. Just the same way the Muslims sees every Christians as “infedel” unbeliever.

Religion will always bring seperation.
God bless you bro, being a Christian and a church goer doesn't guarantee making heaven except by godly living and by God grace. I wonder why God will allow different religion if he want some set of his creation to perish if they practice a particular one. Let whoever want to judge continue since they are 100% sure their on way of life is absolutely tally we God standard even though they re a Christian. I believed in one God, the Creator of heaven and earth, and everything there in and all mankind, he is the final judge of human. Human belief or perception is very irrelevant. Omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscience God is all, nothing more.

Please I need your advice. Is so happened that I know this lady for years now. we are good friends. But the problem is, I know that as a Christian we can't really get married because she is a Muslim. So I have been trying to keep the relationship on just us being friends, even though I love her and I know She has this little feelings for me. If I had been serious, I know we would have gotten married or close to that, but I keep avoiding her and sometimes I do it on purpose.

Now, where I get really confused is that, any time i pray for God's will in marriage, she keeps coming to my mind. This is not infatuation or something. It has been happening over and over again. I know God also talk to us through giving us this deep impression in our heart.

It was so deep on day that I told the Holy Spirit that I can't marry her. I spoke with my pastor this week concerning this issue, and he said it is not possible for God to tell us to marry a Muslim and this thing keeps coming. am really confuse. because of this, have not been praying concerning marriage.

Nature does not know religion. Religion is a human invention. God, truth and love are beyond and greater than religion.

From the look of things, you two really love each other. Genuine love is hard to come across these days. Do not miss a unique chance to love, due to religious barriers.

The only reason she kept coming to your mind while you are praying is because you have conditioned your mind to think about her alone, from research God doesn't speak that way. He doesn't crown our selfish desires nor our lustful longings. Well I am not against people of different religion loving each other but most definitely I am against people of different religion marrying each other especially if one is dogmatic.
We can't raise our unborn children with multiple religion, it causes confusion and division. Bro, leave God out of this, He hasn't said anything about u and her. If u want to make ur decision, make it and face its consequence alone

I like how this conversation is made on the base that Christianity is true and Islam is false so everyone is telling him to convert the Muslim to Christianity because, you know, OP would gladly leave Christianity too for islam if the girl asks wink

This is another reason to be an Antitheist, remove religious discrimination, racial discrimination, tribal discrimination and OP would've been asking "Can a Man marry a woman?"

All religion does is divide us and give us one extra reason to antagonise each other as though the reasons we already have aren't enough

Humans continuously fail to realise that we are first of all humans before religion, culture, tradition & politics.

the thing is that have gotten any confirmation from God. see, I believe God is taking me higher. as in I may likely end up a pastor, though God hasn't spoken anything yet, but I know that is where am heading. so can she be a wife of a pastor, I don't think so. why this go to her if I don't think she can do well as a pastor's wife. and can God really tell one to marry a Muslim
Good morning bro.
Ezekiel 14:4 Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the LORD will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols;
Bro, for God to lead you aright, learn never to give him optiond. Never say :God , should I marry sister Mary' or ' should I marry sister Tope or sister Tosin. If you ask God or the prophets whom you should marry between A or B, He will tell you marry A or Marry B. He won't tell you marry C.
Shalom

Re: Can A Born Again Christian Marry A Muslim Lady? by emperorlaqrin: 11:07am On Jul 29, 2018

Op, I will advice you to do the following :

1... Approach her and inform her of your feelings for her. If she agrees , tell her that she needs to be converted to a Christian and Why.

2... If she cannot convert , then remove the idea of marriage to her from your heart.


Those 2 steps are very Important because , if you don't ask her to convert b4 marriage , she might refused to after marriage. And as long as she does not commit adultery , you cannot divorce her based on her religion if she is willing to remain in the marriage.

God has told us not to marry an unbeliever which may be why God has refused to speak to you.
God does not go against His words.

A wrong marriage can destroy God's plan for you. It can take you to hell.
You may think women are weak, but in marriages they are VERY VERY POWERFUL.

MY ADVICE IS THIS, DONT MARRY HER FOR ANY REASON UNLESS SHE ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS HER SAVIOUR.






Mr in as much as I don't want to go into words with you cos I understand clearly the area you coming from but I challenge you to your "UNBELIEVER".

You see because you a xtian and the opposite person is a Muslim does not make you nor the person and UNBELIEVER cos you both know the religion you are practicing .

Sincerely we have allowed religion to eat deep into our soul in this country and thereby we neglect the fact that We are all created by one SUPREME BEING.

I am a Muslim but am from a family of xtian and Muslim and there as never been issue of all this natures since I have grown as an adult from my parents likewise we the children chose the religion we want to practice without anyone dictating to us.Yeah I accept the fact that they should both talk things over before marriage cos that's the KEY to there successful union.

I am a very good example here and this just happened to me few months ago , I had a xtian lady am dating for say like 3years and I am practicing Islam and this lady eventually ended the relationship with me few months ago on the basis that she can't be living in the house with different believe .

Also I have a cousin who is an Islamic fanatic who as some believe s about xtian, I usually argue with him by telling him those things he believea are not right about xtianity .
I have practiced both but I chose to be a Muslim not cos I think xtianity is bad but cos I am matured to make a decision and know which is best and I believe the more .

We all have a right to religion and is there in our country constitution and we should not allow religion dictate our lives .

peace

First God's word must be consulted regarding such matters. It's right there.


Wonder why it's hard to follow God's word these days yet we sing songs like


"When you call me I will answer "

"Show me the way"

"I trust in you"

"I surrender all"


and the likes, yet when the verdict comes.... it's a brick way that is seen!!



Even Jesus found it hard to succumb to God's will bring First!!!!

Why would you even call yourself a Christian...let alone Born Again Christian?...you shouldn't be asking such a question...you're a Christian...she is not period...what is there to discuss? Whoever is answering your prayers or showing you signs certainly is not God.
Taking religious difference out of it..... how can you be thinking of marrying someone that you love soooo much....but she has this little feelings for you? ...how old are you?..16? Guy...forget about marriage...you're not ready period.

Op is infatuated and confused. Religion is dogmatism and indoctrination. This is just a clash of Islamic and Christian dogmas. Nothing else. God is not telling you anything neither is your holy spirit. Your mind and subconscious is playing tricks on you. You think marrying the little girl will end your struggles and that's exactly what your mind is playing on. Every other issues are based on this fact. And then the sexual and other aspect are coming into play

Re: Can A Born Again Christian Marry A Muslim Lady? by alexnana: 11:15am On Jul 29, 2018
One of our greatest challenge in this part of this world is religion God created man is own likeness and image, but man are now creating God in their own likeness and image. We are the one making the distinction between ourselves, not God. Different believes, different religion, creating their own God. What is the essence of marriage if it not companionship, but religion and culture have created a large difference whereby we regards people who doesn't have the same faith with us as the devil. Most of us who claims to be enlighten and learned as well, when it comes to religion matters, we are so blinded by our so called believes. Who knows what is right and what is wrong, we are all being indoctrinated, and we thinks we have found the truth but it isn't really so. All I will advise is if u can handle the pressure, u can go on to marry her.because to a large extent u will be frustrated by her people and your people as well.

But the big question is which religion is the true religion? What we believes in fixes up automatically. Even in our so called Christian religion can a Deeper life memeber marry a Christ Embassy brother or sister, or can a roman catholic marry and Anglican. Good created humanity not religion.

Meekha:
Well, lemme not say that we are both sailing on the same ship but my own situation seems very similar to yours. I really helped her in the time when she needed help most and the help happened to be very timely and this made her fall in love with me. But there are many problems here
1. I am 7 years older than her (Which I do not find really ideal but nevertheless can cope or change my views shaa)
2. She is a Muslim and I am a BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN who wouldn't' give up my Christian faith for any reason, though I was born a Muslim, I converted to Christianity along the way.
3. She is from a super rich family and I am only a worker hired by her dad to help coach her where she had deficiencies. I am a graduate who is just trying to make ends meet and this job is very dear to me.
4. I have made a personal commitment to myself against falling in love with people I coach but then, this seemed to be very very different!
5. The parents of the girl have a high level of trust for me or an unusual likeness so they treat me better than other co-workers maybe it's because I deliver an exceptionally excellent service plus I am very hospitable and I consider it one of the greatest wrong I will do to betray their trust.
6. I know that it is a great woe on her part if her parents never find out about her emotional connection to me because it is a big TABOO for Muslim girls to marry Christian man though the reverse is permissible!
7. She is a Hausa-Fulani girl while I am from the middle belt: A clash of culture and social values.
8. I will end up putting the saviour who connected me with the family in a big trouble and this may result in the robbing of other young people like me of their prospects. The list seems endless.

Of a truth, I love the girl and she is of the view that she can marry a Christian cos her religion permits it (i knew it's not true, she was just speaking out of love). I currently have been putting up a stern face whenever we meet but this seems to be fanning the flames of desires even the more. The more I get to see her, the more my resolve weakens as per not dating her. Whenever I pray, her pictures keep flashing before my face as if to say that she is the One and I dream a lot about her these days. She is more than beautiful (know these typical beautiful Hausa-Fulani girls)

THE TRUTH!!!
Christianity does not encourage marrying people of the opposite religion and so if one does it, it may not be the best choice!!
God save us!!!
Lol
See gold digger o grin

You helped her blablabla

I bet this person you're talking about is still a teenager.
