Apina:u wrote right , but the point nessecity, I don’t agree with . Marriage is a traditional occasion , they don’t have to be in church before God accents to the union.. the major element of maraige is the promise and the witnesses .. pastors have been misleading people to believe it’s a nesescity.. 1 Like |

The bible most times, teaches us in parables. This verse of the bible is just a parable of our Lord Jesus Christ and church! How the church (Christians) should keep themselves holy and to be rapturable when he is to come back again. Not literally a marriage between a man and woman! ![]() [Lquote author=Mandynews post=71381692]In Rev. 19:7-9 the Bible says, "Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to Him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife has made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white; for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. And he said unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said unto me, These are the true sayings of God."[/quote] |

The most important part of a marriage is the parents consent as symbolized by the acceptance of dowry or bride price. Ceremony or no ceremony. The rest is jara. Christians also need to learn to separate Jewish/Oyinbo traditions and culture from our African traditions and culture. We infuse Jewish and oyinbo traditions into christianity, then we call our own traditions fetish or archaic or mundane. Such is the practice of today's Nigerian Christian and it is fueled by all these fine boy pastors and con artists. Some churches will tell you that you must do white wedding before traditional as traditional is seen as unclean and fetish. Such ignorance. A marriage is already blessed by God once dowry is paid and accepted. Go and read your Bible, don't rely on what the con artist priest says. 2 Likes |

When Constantine became a Christian,in order to lure his subjects to his new found religion,most of their local traditions where infused in Christchurch .we can still ask who decreed that Christians must celebrate birthdays?who decreed that Christians must celebrate new Year days?who decreed that Christians must celebrate Christmas?who decreed that Christians must celebrate Easter?if you check the Bible, this rites were never practiced in the first century Christianity.Constantine damaged Christianity. |

They are senseless and thinkless who wants to add and do add costs to things thst need be costless and free! What a world! Our poor parents got married without this funfare. Seeing them, we even wonder, "how did this poor couples got married"? The thinkless ones among our generation thinks because they have money and can borrow, the world is under their feets.
