Am in a relationship with a pentecostal, and he is always condenming my church cos am an anglican and i dont find it funny at all, i told him we should overlook the denominational differences that we are one body in christ that when i get married to him i can change my church, am really getting confused with all these denominational crisis, please help

if you are willing to change church for this man (after marriage) then you should do so now and stop wasting valuable peaceful time.

btw: the fact that you even want to change church after marriage , just confirms whatever your future husband is saying.

yes ooh!

~Killz~:

Yes it does!
When will people come to the realization that inter-denominational relationships are a No No? Love is not foolishness! He's always condemning the denomination that brought up a lady that he fell in love with, and wants to marry? What an arse!. . . And you are foolishly clinging to him, promising him a change to his denomination after he marries you? Height of obfuscation!. . . Are you that ugly and desperate? Smh!

Come on Killz don't be melodramatic. Boyfriend is just myopic and OP is just being silly. If she's made up her mind to swittch churches after marriage why not resolve whatever problems her bf is having along those lines? Just because he doesn't approve of her church doesn't mean the realtionship us doomed na.

I am more concern with being equally yoked with my husband and religion is subjective.

For me NO. You can be a muslim for all i care. But sadly, thats just me. There re lots of myopic people out there.

were you forced to be with him?

not like he is even your husby sef

or is he?

lyk seriously WTH s wit dis church/mosque thingy
abegi
if a man cant accept me wit my ways of worship den he shld F off

This is an absolute atrocity! What is the Body of Christ turning into these days?!!! How can a Pentecostal marry an Anglican?!!! Abomination of the highest order! Even Anglicans from different dioceses have no business getting married to each other! Both of you need to fall down on your knees and weep for forgiveness! The Jesus in an Anglican church is a completely different Jesus in a Pentecostal church oh! Don't you ever dare confuse the two again! Thank you!  



Nigerians no go kill me with laughter today with all manner of petty, irrelevant drama! Even the English that founded the Anglican church are quickly forgetting about it! But we Nigerians are torturing our relationships over it! So stooopid!

Lol,
Op i dont think you guys are ready for a relationship

Denomination really matters alot. if u know u can cope and will like to change it is better u do it now or never. whatever u can accept before marriage, do u think u can accept it after marriage. pls dont be carried away by the sentiment called love.

Op if i remember correctly, Jesus said love thy neighbour as thy self not love thy church neighbour as thy self. i'm catholic so i just might be wrong. Ask your reverend.

@ poster

Why the hurry from the guy? does he attend Christ embassy the mas*turbators

So not only do the religious discriminate against other religions, now they also discriminate against different sects within the same religion?

I know about shi'a and Sunni Muslims not getting along ( even though they are both technically of the same faith), now Christians wan start their own?

This is a slippery slope folks. Life is short, Live and Love as much as you can!

Except una no wan marry the person.,. thats when ur posts are cool.
*Accepting your way of worship is not the problem. Have u eva tot about wia the union would be blessed, Church or Mosque??
*How your partner's family would feel towards the union (no matter what u tink, u kant do without the family blessings)
*What about the Children that would result from the union? At their tender age, wia would they worship b4 becoming of age to choose their own paths.

.
It is more than loving/hating denomination or religion.

^These and many more questions are what u shuld put into consideration. So just strike a compromise and make things work! Love is the ultimate

well mayb dats jst me bt rili, i expect my man 2 c all dose things earlier
i dont do complains
if he s nt cool wit d way i worship
den fyn

Moremi 2008, may God forgive you, becos u're a CONFUSSIONIST. How can u say Anglicans cnot marry Pentecostal? You need to examine dat your cesspool you call mouth in your egg head, u equally say the Jesus in Anglican is diferent frm Pentecostal. If i have my way i will celotape your mouth 4eva afterall is not compulsory u must talk. Pls look be u leap next time.

@OP- So you'd change your faith because of a man? Funny you.

!. Wetin no concern our family and marriage?? Oya go marry without telling your people and also asking her people to accept you.
2. If you be pentecostal, for instance, go marry J.W. You people don't believe in the same doctrines, how would it work. Don't tell me it doesn't matter cos it does.

And they're fast beginning to make me have something to say about them too.

Yes it matters!!!!! There are some churches i cnt marry from

check the dictionary for the meaning of sacrasm

The guy is just looking for excuses bo. He should have some respect for the demonination that played a part in your upbringing!

Issues arise only when you dont want to change if not it is very key. I can just imagine MFM and catholic getting married, how would they say their family prayers
Since u want to change, then there are no issues, you can as well start changing now. But you didnt call him your fiance so i am not even sure how deep the relationship is sef.

I am personally so dogmatic and religon grounded that i am sure someone like me will NEVA change religion becos of a man, so for peace sake i avoided all interdom relationships.

Denominational crisis based on doctrinal differences can ruin a marriage. it is a serious matter.
The Pentecostals are better off marrying their fellow Pentecostals and the Catholics are better off marrying Catholics for peace sake.
There is likely to be strong marital crisis where a Pentecostal marries a Catholic or a Jehovah Witness.The marriage will not work because there are strong doctrinal differences. I am an apostle of,and an advocate of love in marriages which i have been promoting on my blog www.maritalsuccessresource.com but i want you to know that love is not blind when talking about marriage.
There is what is called spiritual intimacy in marriage which has been overlooked by many couples venturing into marriage. If the spiritual intimacy or bond is lacking,the marriage is headed for the rocks.
The Pentecostals believe very strongly in the existence of a Heaven and a Hell as well as the Resurrection among many others.The Catholics and Jehovah Witness do not believe in many of the cardinal principles of Christianity or have distorted views about them. How will the marriage of a Pentecostal man and a Jehovah Witness lady work especially where they continue to belong to their different doctrines after the wedding day?The man will not be able to cleave unto his wife where they are not spiritually intimate and that is the foundation of future discord.
A true Xtian and true believer in the true word of God who marries a Catholic or Jehovah Witness is clearly in breach of 2 Corinthians 6:14-18.
