thou shalt not be unequal yoke together with unbelievers......


2 Cor. 6:14
Don't team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness?

Whom are you referring to as 'wickedness' and 'darkness'?

Abubakarsiddeeq:
The truth is : it is not permissible for a Muslim lady to marry a man who is not a Muslim

These are man made laws.

A fellow human is permissible to marry another human by nature.

That they can procreate means they are of the same species.

My brother u can marry her if she is ready to join ur religion but if No. The effect will be on children. I mean what region are u going to teach ur children.

It’s depends .. it’s not always a black and white thinking.
Raising children in multicultural/multi-religion environment somewhat help the children to be more Tolerant and accepting of other people’s belief/culture

I grew up in a multiracial/multicultural family with different beliefs systems So far so good I’ve been very tolerant and accepting of other people.

I don't know from what angle you are looking at this from. But am not a religious person, am a Christian, that Christ like. and as a Christian there are certain things I can do and not do. and one of those things I can't do is to marry a nor Christ like because there will be clash of interest, because as a Christian, am not permitted to sleep with her until after marriage. so I don't think she would want that. then as a Christian, I may likely end up as a pastor, would she want to be the wife of a pastor? this are the things am concerned about. so as a Christian, we cant do certain things.




that is the problem with all of that call ur self Christians are u now telling me dat Islam encourages immorally? het ur self as a Christian am not allowed to sleep with her until we get married I dont think she would want dat, u are a lunatic.thats how u pp, go about deceiving ppl with born again rubbish, but come to think of it do u know u Bible accept immorality and even teaches how to practice sexual intacus, rubbish always using religion as a yastic

Some Christians will be coming here to be forming holy! holy!! The trust of the matter is it happens to everyone. Love blinds the eye. Infact ehn! Am in love with two or three Hausa girls. They understand my culture and speaks my language sef! If you see dem ehn! The beauty go make you fall down lol. Dey always come to my mind when I think about love. But I know is, if am serious with them, prob will arise..But the truth is hold your stand. If you don't want prob hold your stand firm. God will provide one for you..

My wife was a Muslim before we got married and now she is a preacher of the gospel.The only challenge we had then was family pressure on both side. We both stood because we loved each other genuinely and never allowed a thirty party to dictate our future. We are happily married with two wonderful children. Halleluyah!!!

Our God is not an author of confusion, hence He cannot tell you that she is the one through confirmation.
Her parents will certainly not allow her to marry a non moslem as far as i know.

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.

PLEASEEEEEE, I need Christians to comment on this.
you need to look beyound christianity for your own sanity, both religion has same birth place till date, they are like husband and wife with two different character.The thing is the vast majority of religious people in 9ja do not do research, they just believe in what they have been told, Islam and christianity has same bearing, it was eartlings like you and me who segrigated and hijacked the original doctrine for selfish gains.But God knows best and aint a man who changes.there is only one GOD, We call him JEHOVA muslimd call him AlLAH.

Faith is not determined by maturity

Yeah faith is not determined by maturity but If i don't have faith in Islam I won't choose to become a Muslim. That is not even the bone of contention but the main issue is that we should not let religion dictate what we want .

I will marry whomever I want irrespective of religion, tribe or whatever as long as we both understand each other and mind you it takes a lot of maturity and understanding living together with someone with different believe and that's the important or communication

An unbeliever by definition of the Christian faith is a person who doesn't believe Jesus was born by a virgin...died on the cross taking away the sins of the world...went to hell...defeated the devil....and collected the keys of life and death....and on the third day resurrected from the dead....and ascended to heaven ...and is sitted by the right hand of God.

These are the basics of the Christian faith
If u don't believe the totality of it all
Not some of it
But all of it
Then u are an unbeliever
Simple

My brother I totally agree with what you have said as a xtian but me as a Muslim All this things you have stated are there in the Qur'an but what ee believe transpired is diff but my own point is just that we should respect one another been a Muslim or xtian .

At the end of the day we all will live as one cos there would be clarity after judgement

Get an engagement ring, call the lady, ask her if she will marry you? If she says yes, go ahead
and marry her.

who is pastor when God speaks, he knows how it will happen, he dqoesn't speak and say can I do it, my bro No. have heart to heart conservation with the lady and ask her if she can convert to a Christan, that is if you genuinely love her. if she says no, go back to God since he has spoken and challenge him. I believe God will tell you the way to go about it

How do you know that it was God that spoke to him ? Some people hear themselves and then say it is God that spoke to them.

God is not an author of confusion, if He has said we should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, He can't come and tell us again to get yoked witth unbeleivers.
Re: Can A Born Again Christian Marry A Muslim Lady? by BankoleTO(m): 12:05pm On Jul 29, 2018
the problem is that some people see Islam and Christianity as white or black. sadly, some pastors and imams too.

'don't marry unbelievers'. Too some Christians, Muslims are unbelievers, to some Muslims, Christians are unbelievers.

only sensible people should quote me, not some religious bigot.

Making a decision on what you want and taking our stance on it doesn't mean it could not be the will of Allah (s.w.t) There are certain things that happens as a coincidence likewise some happen based on our decision both does not mean they aren't the will of God

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!!!

When uve been put in a place of care or tutorship over sm1 don't abuse the trust. Learn to separate work from pleasure and look at it as being professional unless ure sure her parents will approve of such cos they hired u for a job and not to galavant. U can be good frnds and pick up the relationship part after u stop working there and find ur feet or whatever.

As for praying and seeing her face its just ur emotions talking to u lol, mostly cos u hv an emotional connection with her already and probably shes d only gal ur close to in that way at dis time so it's normal for her pretty face to pop up in ur prayers cheesy . Stay focused tho

The way we take religion issue in Nigeria, only God can help us.

Who is God? God is love. God gave his only son to the world, He Neva tink He can't send his son cos the world is full of sin.

Most people are Christians because they are born into christian family and vice versa for muslim.

Oga, if God truly ask you to marry her, then who are you to be considering you can't cos U want to be a pastor. After U become a pastor, is it not God U wanna serve.


All I see is dat you value Christianity rules more than the God speaking to you.

God created us all in his image, we are one family separated by religious, tribes and believe.


Love and understanding is the most important thing, if U become a pastor and marry a Christian, that doesn't guarantee you are going to heaven or not, and if you marry muslim, Nothn is guaranteed.

All this people saying you will go to hell if you marry muslim, Se na dem do heaven constitution?


All is well
Let love reign
Stop bn a slave of religion and tribes
Let us live in love to live a peaceful life
