Hmmmm, salvation, sanctification and the baptism in the Holy Spirit are the criteria to make it to heaven, other things are secondary, but as a Christian, one should not joke with the issue of bride price, if one is staying with a lady and has not fully paid her bride price, he his seeking the wrath of God upon himself.

Ignoramus sighted....

Is this from or for Africans?

Exodus 22:16-17: "If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife. If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he must still pay the bride-price for virgins."

Kriss216:
God has no business with bride price.

Bride price is just one of the tools devise by hungry African parents to extort their prospective in-laws.

No be everyone suppose marry....By the way Heaven is over hyped... imagine humans working seriously to achieve something in the Afterlife....why not give me my reward here!?

After the payment of your bride price why u no go your heaven again

wonder233:
There is no price on a human being. What you meant to say was "why would two unmarried people be living together". Bride price has nothing to do with marriage validity. What makes a marriage valid is the consent of the two individuals expressed in front of witnesses.

hmmm explain please so all this guys engaging their girlfriends in a mall should go home and start living together without visiting the families to do what's necessarily

You will miss heaven if your bride price is not paid!

You will miss heaven if you don't pay tithe!

You will miss heaven if you don't do this and do that!

If the death of Christ is not perfect and sufficient enough to guarantee man's salvation, then it's all in vain and the devil is a big winner!

Many Nigerian preachers need a refresher course in the New Covenant.

Killermamba:


What about our brothers and sisters in Europe and America where bride price is not paid, you only go to court to get registered as couples and thats all, won't they make heaven? Mind you no one collect pride price or dowry, so people like don Moen won't make heaven?

Now that is what obtains in their societies. Whether you go to Court or Church or Mosque, the fact is that you are married legitimately. When they marry in the registry, it is very legitimate and accepted. The difference with ours is the dowry/bride price that MUST first be paid.

What we should all learn in this subject matter is the fact that living with a man/woman in the house without marrying legitimately does not make you married. It is called co-habitation. It is sinful in Christianity. It is sinful in Islam. It is sinful culturally, it is sinful morally. When you have sex, it is called fornication and as you know fornication is sinful.

Chai who do we offend. Many people had decided to spoil the good name of Christianity.

Eternity is too serious for bride price to be he the ticket

Until all these people are arrested, we will not move forward in this country. Someone will just wake up and start spewing nonsense.

The bolded is false. Are you an advocate of God?
When a Nigerian leaves the shores of the country, he/she will be shocked at how things are different.

hmmm ok i understand what you mean but dont say your dad didnt accept your sis bride price because in that case it means he rejects his inlaw,but rather say my sis bride price was paid but my dad use it to bless them.that your dad didnt collect your sis bride price doesnt mean her bride price was not paid.bride price is a token presented in contest of the groom family wanting to take a bride from another family thats where it all started before the church setting in to bless the union.no right church will wed you if bride price are not paid.that of india is still intact bride price was still paid

You are confusing culture with spirituality. A church has nothing to do with bride price but represents God at the union.The priest acts as the representative of God at the marriage and any attempt to extort exorbitant bride price from the groom is an act of corruption and unscriptural.. A woman should not be sold. In India the bride price is of negative balance since the woman pays the price to the husbands family. Asking for exorbitant bride price shows quite clearly that the bride's family is poverty stricken

omo you they confuse me join so paying bride price means the lady is sold

Odidigboigbo:
Madam professor, she is using a general common words, your arguement is like arguing for salary and wages or neck and throat. She is not presenting legal paper to be differentiating about dowry and pride price. The statement is all about fulfillment marriage rites of a woman, you call call it whatever you like as it's applied to you.

The point exactly, not all cultures have that fulfillment marriage rites of a woman . So how do we segregate who sees God?
BTW Can we have an intelligent conversation void of name calling son ?

Baba on the bolded, you are100% correct. When I see some ridiculous bride price,I know it's from poor family relations. I'm like, these things ( bride price, marriage list) are meant to be symbolic, frustrating young couples cos of fulfilling one cultural practice.

In some cultures, it's bragging rights. I did this, n that, the whole village feel me.

Forget it. Bride price is just symbolic. The most important factor in marriage is the parental consent/blessings . Once that is granted., the couple can go ahead and start living together.

ok i know what is bride price and i know what its used for.

Dowry is the same as Bride Prize. No difference between a woman whose dowry has not been paid and a prostitute...........

Matthew 1:18
[18]Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.

Joseph paid dowry. You don't BETROTHED empty handed.

Amotolongbo:
Bride prize paying is just a cultural tradition and practice, not a spiritual thing.

What about places where bride prize isn’t paid but dowry? Who won’t see Jesus between the man and the woman in a Dowry paying culture?

Another case: We’ve heard about the bride families who refused collecting the bride prize brought to them by the grooms’ families. Who will not see Jesus between the two families, the grooms’ families whose prize was rejected or the brides’ families who rejected it?

Some people will just sleep and have a nightmare and attach the nightmare to reality when they wake up.

Talking about the Jesus she talked about seeing, where in the Bible is it written that Joseph paid the bride prize for his mum, Virgin Mary?

Insidenaija:
Controversial Nigerian preacher, Kate has said that women whose bride price are not paid will never see the face of God, Newspremises reports.

This came after a lady whose wedding she attended, narrated how she saw a vision of herself going to heaven but started "coming down". She said after another lady asked why she's no longer going to heaven, she heard a voice saying 'her bride price has not been paid which is why she can't go'.

She added that after she woke and told her husband about the vision, he immediately started off the process of paying her bride price and holding their wedding.

Backing the lady, Sister Kate stated that issue of bride price is very serious and can hinder one from getting to heaven even with their religious positions and soul winning campaigns.

All this people will just come and be dropping lamba for us saying they see this see that, just exactly like the video I watched on Twitter where the lady said any body that supports football club is definitely commiting sin and if parents buy ball � for his/her kids is also involving the kids in the ways of the devil, that football was created as a easiest means to bring people together to the kingdom of the devil ����

Why are you twisting scriptures? Let me clear you.
Bethrohed- means, the young lady (a VIRGIN) given to another young man as partner ( even when they are still in their teens) It's a common practice in the middle east.

BTW, are you joking at the bolded? That's a lie, Biko.

Funny but it's true

Any union that's not legally seal, paying dowry or bride price attract ev!l things to happen
