Pastors justify what ever action they take, be it good, bad or ugly with a scripture passage. That why they are always right and never wrong. Well I dnt blame them, its the gullible, foolish followers that permit such nonsense. Lobbish!

Exactly. The pastor is already been taken over by the spirit of lust and hence he can use the bible to justify his evil thoughts.

Devil can quote the bible ,but use part of the scriptures that he would want to use to convince those who are not in spirit.

Only evil pastors use part of the bible quotations given to them by demons to justify the evil they want to do.

Your pastor is evil and I pray God opens your spirit eyes to see and know who that your pastor is.He must have started committing adultery hence he would want to use the bible to buttress his evil thoughts.May God deliver him and deliver you people under him.


Absolutely. Believers usually hang on to a part of the Scriptures to justify their questionable moves. He truly needs prayers. Happy Sunday brother!

besides d place ur pastor quoted didn't say he should take another wife wen d partner departs.... xo he should stop trying to justify sin and explaining d bible to suit himself
Re: My Pastor Justified Taking Another Wife With Scripture, Is He Right? by Nobody: 12:40pm On Sep 06, 2015
Tinynita:
from my point of view, I don't think d bible permits divorce in any way. fornication means sexual intercourse btw 2 people that r not married therefore a married person cannot commit fornication....xo it is impossible to commit fornication while married to someone else...marriage is 4 better 4 worst, till death do u part...xo he isn't permitted to take a wife until his wife is no more

No need to argue over it. Fornication is unlawful sex, so is adultery. In this context JESUS' talks about extramarital sex. However, forgiveness still rules. Thanks for your thoughts anyway. Happy Sunday madam!

Not in general... But he can't take another wife, until the other is dead.

He can take another wife IF and only if he divorced the first on grounds of infidelity...else, he's on his way to doom.

even on ground infidelity is nt justified, did u nt read when Jesus said that Even he that marry that divorced woman too has commit adultery? once u r married it till death o.that y it gud to pray so nt to choose wrongly.

"And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery" (Matthew 19:9). These are JESUS' own words.

Sadly this unstable generation will do everything to justify ill actions. Marriage partner is a choice that bears consequences. Men must learn to live with the outcomes of their choices.

The truth is this day the so called men of God have turn the scripture to there favour. My advice is just that we should just pray to God. To help us out.
Re: My Pastor Justified Taking Another Wife With Scripture, Is He Right? by Goodgoody1: 1:14pm On Sep 06, 2015
In this scenario the Pastor can never re-marry. You cannot eat your cake and have it. The wife is not an unbeliever and if it is infidelity carefully look at the words of Jesus as quoted by some, he said FORNICATION. Can a married man commit fornication, he can't, he can only commit adultery which is infidelity between the married.

In summary if you are married you are married for life. No divorce NO DIVORCE, NO SEPARATION, Manage your union and live together.

just4now:
While not justifying the action of your pastor which l have no right to pass judgment but for your seek l choose to advice. Brother, Christianity is highly spiritual this is why the Lord instructed us not to judge others because you never know where He has granted grace. lf l want to go by the letters your pastor is wrong but where do we place the leading of the Holy Spirit in matters so complicated as this. lf you are in doubt where your pastor stands before God [if you care that much] you should seek the face of God concerning his action. Meanwhile, many will lie against the Holy Spirit to justify their actions to their own perils still that doesn't negate hearing instructions from Him. As Christians we are to live by the Holy Spirit and walk after the Holy Spirit...Gal 5:24-26.
God is not the author of confusion. The trinity are one and they can never contradict one another. Don't let people deceive us with what they hear from the holy spirit. The scripture is cleared on this; marrying another wife when the one you divorce is still alive is against the word of God. This is not judgemental; run away from such Pastor because he can make u divorce ur wife and latter marry her and he'll justify that also from the scripture.

the reasons are not justifiable. Unless death cos the bible says that the husband should love the wife as christ love the church, and how did christ loved the church? While we yet sinners
brother,only adultery should make a man engage in divorce. but getting married after a divorce is a no no.. only death can make a man remarry..

Divorce was not part of the contract, if you read your bible well.... Except on grounds of infidelity.

Else, it's till death do you two apart.

Even Jesus said it was due to hardness of heart that divorce was prescribed in old testament.
Where is love and forgiveness? Adultery is not reason to divorce. Remember what Jesus said when the adulterous woman was caught in the very act. Let him that is without sin cast the first stone.

I hate commenting in issues that concerns Pastors. Truth is the devil himself can use Bible to support evil even quoted it for Jesus in His temptation.
Pastor Chris and Anita can preach walking in spirit, love, forgiveness etc
Makes you wonder whether they do listen to. Themselves attimes or is the preaching only for the congregation alone?

Drunkards will say Jesus turned water to wine so he supports drinking.

I will stop here before I missyarn.
God please don't hold this post against me, thanks. I only wrote as a human beans.

My pastor's marriage crashed last year, thou the marriage produced children and the parting seems unreconcilable even thou i think it fell on domestic issues and also the fact that the wife doesn't really flow with the pastoral call of the husband as her pastor husband wish her to.

Recently the man of God was talking about it and he said that he will take a new wife very soon anytime he is ready, and he ask us whether its scriptural but we just giggled and he told us that it is scriptural that we should open the book of 1 corinthians 7:14-15 "for the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband, else where your children unclean but now are they holy; but if the unbelieving depart,let him depart, a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases:but God has called us to peace...

This actually was a little bit confusing to me, since the wife in question wasn't an unbeliever... Is my pastor right with his assertions?

A lot has been said. no need to talk too much.
but please read the whole of that chapter, and let the holy spirit do the teaching, don't try to give in to heresy.
secondly, I advice Christians not to attend churches of supposed men of God who cannot submit or be discipled by a man who has gone ahead of him. even adeboye and oyedepo have spiritual fathers.
from what you've written, you attend a one man Church. go to where you will grow, na God I take beg you.

I will recommend this book "marriage, divorce remarriage" by Kenneth Haggin to christians. It opened my eyes on marriage. I too had a very strong opinion about re marriage under any circumstances aside from adultery but my views have long changed. And everything in the book is well supported. Christians if you hv time please find it and read it.

Thank me later.

Is it proper for a man to sleep with or marry his own sister or daughter? Pls answer that because I can't remember God creating wives and husbands for Adam and Eve's offsprings.

Christianity is very complicated and the bible is the most complicated book in the world. I can quote u different passages in the bible that contradict themselves. May God help us.

your pastor is only trying to justify his wrong with d scripture. But don't forget that d standard of God can not b reduced because of anybody. That a pastor says something doesn't make it right... Only what God says is ever true.
