I met this girl 4years back and one thing led to another and we started a relationship, things have been pretty well and we love each other very much, we have our ups and down but we makeup for it. I love her so much I could do anything for her and she loves me too in her own special kind of way.

The problem now is that am planning on proposing to her in a couple of weeks, I even stylishly measured her ring size and I have been visiting some jewelry stores to pick the perfect ring for her and also planning some surprise engagement party/get together for her but the thing is that she hates my church (catholic).

She is Anglican by birth but she attends one of the pentecostal churches which I don't want to mention,
we have been talking about this church of a thing for the past 3 months now and she has sworn never to get married in the Catholic Church and I can't leave my church because of this.

I even stopped talking or texting her for some couple of days now but today she texted me saying that "I should do this one thing for her by leaving my church" and even said it to my face that I should not propose to her when the time comes cos she will say no because of this.

Am just confused, what shall I do? I need help

OK, if I am to be in your shoes, I will tell her that for us to prove our love to each other, we will both have to sacrifice. that is we would both have to leave our churches. Tell her to go look for another place of worship and you would be willing to follow her there but if she insist on her current church then she is not ready to sacrifice which means she is self-centered and doesn't really love you.

If you are a Bible scholar with no bias mind, you should be able to identify the denomination with wrong teachings

HeyCorleone:

j don't blame you, I was born and brought up in Catholics but the lord showed me a better way to serve him.


Hail mary, pray for us sinners what is that to you? I only have one scripture for you

Why do you people get into marriage-focused relationships that you have no intentions of finalizing properly?

Catholicism is a religion.
Pentecostalism is too, but it is less a typical religion like Catholicism, which relies on too many peganistic traditions that put Christ on the sideline.

Catholicism is a dangerous thing to be into in these last days.
Come out of it.

Honestly, no church denomination is perfect, and every denomination is basically its own religion at this point. that is why religion itself is a cancer. Jesus Christ is above religion. Today we have churches that the Holy Spirit hasn't even been in since 1998. Just people going through the motions and entertaining or carrying out man-made traditions.

It is also unfortunate that pentecostal church has now been thought to mean prosperity church.
The prosperity church should honestly be another denomination on it's own as much of it was spawned by a subtle greed that grew into an idolization of material success.

The catholic church? It evidently has an issue with idols period. Whoever discounts this is just defending culture/tradition, not scripture. God was firm when he expressed He doesn't want idols made of Him or anything in heaven. You don't know what he looks like, neither do you know what Mary looks like...but you just do all that because that's what your church leaders tell you to do. You haven't gone into the bible for yourself to let the holy spirit teach you, by himself, what is expected of you and things to avoid. For one of many examples... if you guys were truly in truth, marriage for priests would be a choice not a mandate to desist (1 Timothy 4:3). You hear the news everyday what that does to these men...

Whatever floats your boats sha, just know that there is a thin line between doing it right and doing it very very wrong with all these churches....and as the last days come to an end...that line gets ever thinner.

As a christian, your paramount concern is not religion...but your personal relationship with God through Christ Jesus. The Holy Spirit will tell you where you need to go when you detach your soul from religionism and yield only to His instruction.
Those who rely on "church crowd", "My pastor/pope says so", etc in these last days will be gravely disappointed when what's coming hits us.
Jesus himself warned of this.
We will have no-one to blame because our pastor cannot answer for us when that day gets real.
So we owe it to ourselves to strip our religious egos/titles/relationships from all this, seek truth SOLO from God's word, and then apply anew as if we knew nothing before.

if only 10% of Christians reasoned like this half of the world's problems would be solved.thumbs up

see them fooling themselves .
Catholic this Catholic that.
all you Pentecostal business centres .

who do your think preserved and nourished the Christian faith .
I would rather be a pagan or atleast a non practicing Muslim than change my denomination.

and for you OP better make your choice afterall we Catholics don't practice the do or die brand of Christianity.

which bible the same preserved by the Catholics ?

[color=#000099][/color] my dear if you truely love her, go ahead and accept her request and marry her i promise you, you won't regrat it i've been in that position before and am ejoying it even though we hav'nt marry but she made me to see life.

Since Catholic and Anglican issue is causing such higi haga and you both claim to love each other very much and can't come to a level playing field, abeg una just do traditional wedding + court wedding case closed.

I have a female friend who is exactly in same situation as this. She is Pentecostal while her fiance is catholic, and she stood best ground that she will never marry into catholic while the fiance's mother refused to bless their relationship due to the girl's refusal to adopt Catholicism.

My question to her was, is getting married to him and accepting Catholicism mutually exclusive or independent?

OP, that is the same question you should ask her. When you get the answer, you'll know what to do

HRHQueenPhil:
i have d same stance for catholic church, dat lady is a real christian..if u dont stand for something, u fall for anything.do u know i went to mulumba and david cath. church on invite and the moderator was reminding dem of a youth thing dey are having saying comedians and whiz kid is coming..dey shld buy tickets.. whiz kid in church..and chanting THRU mary our mother, we succeed..i agree with ur future wife, i hope u will wake up

My friend sharrap. Was it not a Pentecostal church that invited comedians and Korede Bello?

Amos 3:3
Two CANNOT walk together unless they agree

Forget love, it won't work. There ll be friction every time especially when they start having kids

I'm sure either the op or his fiancee is from Anambra or mbaise,IMO state.They carry catholic matter for head like gala.

Yes the truth is what if you were a Muslim. My bro I think is better you let her go & get someone who will be ready to marry you irrespective of were you worship. Or whatever God you believe in. As she has started now, what will be the next line of action by the time you marry her. You're a man & as it is the man should be the one that decides whatever happens in marriage.but now that she has started.hmmmm.pls let her go. I know that in heaven there's nothing like church & it's not church that will take you to heaven but your faith. Just like there's no father, mother,brothers & sisters there. So there's no wife too in heaven. No marriage.

doughziay:


Thing is both of you are Christians and you're by doing this church thing bringing separation in the body of Christ..
is it not one God?
Is the God in Catholic different from her own church..This has to be trashed out squarely before you both walk the road to forever.

if you or her by any means give in to the pressure because of marriage to change church, you might be struggling with that in marriage.

If she's the will of God for you, God always has his way of making things work perfectly, if it continues this way, pray and your wife will surface. God be with you.

where in the bible do you see a good wife dishing out instruments to her husband?

Princeofnigeria:

I don't even understand you. Your typos and punctuations are tiring.

Leave catholicism for catholics. You were not able to comprehend, I'm sure that's why you left.

Bro. I will advice you not to leave Ur church. U might regret later. I have similar case but my girl decided to change herself as she doesn't want to lose me.
I believe for her to have mind to put you in tight corner means she's doesn't care if she loses u. So y worry urself abt someone who doesn't care if u go.
The problem is dt they believe they are spiritual and Catholics are not which is pure shallow reasoning.
But know dt marriages are done in wife's church thereafter she moves to Ur own church and u do the necessary regularisation.
My advice is given already, read again.

Bro you are going to be the future head of ur family, the moment you agree to her terms my dear forget it she will control that marriage. Religion shouldn’t bring enemity btw the both of u . Am a catholic but I got married to a Pentecostal guy,I never allowed our different religion believe to come in between us. I attend his church with him , I believe we all serve same God. What matters is understanding and trust.pls pray Before u propose , marriage is not child’s play.

Bro trust me being there. Don't ever think of giving up your true faith to please her, it won't even stop there. Had almost exact situation sometime ago and I stood my ground. There are many decisions you will face together and same trick of if you love me you will do this for me may continue to resurface. Let her know you love her but can't leave your faith so she can accept to marry you. It's not worth it one bit. My advice.
