Contrary to what the bible says that a man shall leave his
father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one
flesh, the general overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor
Enoch Adejare Adeboye condemned marriage in his new book titled “Journey to
Marriage”.
Prior to the new book, Pastor Adeboye have joined several
pastors in Nigeria who have been making explosive statement both on the social
media and in the Christendom. Journey to Marriage is said to be a book with all
humility which tells you all you need to know on whether to get married or not
and also serve as a spiritual guidance and preparations for your wedding.
In the book, the man of God started by saying that not
everybody will marry.
“Please let this point be clear from the beginning. Marriage
is a very beautiful thing, but when you think seriously about the matter the
one who does not marry is better than the one who does. Almost all the mighty
men tremendously used by God never married.
Such people include Elijah, Elisha, Paul, Jesus, Isaiah, Jeremiah,
and Stephen. Somehow, they ‘did not get into the “trouble” I am happy being
married, like somebody said, like trailer it drags you.”
“The bible says clearly that those who are not married mind
only the things of God, while those who are married mind the things of their
husbands and their wives”
“I have a rough idea that when we get to heaven those who
are not married will score higher marks than those of us who are married.” So
your first step to marriage therefore should be to ask God if he wants you to
marry or not according to the man of God.
“If the answer is negative then pray to God to let you
settle down and begin your work for him. You could argue that it is God who
says we should increase and multiply.
Yes but do all those who marry get children? Man of God
concluded. ****Are you convinced?***
Hmmmm.... The truth is not far fetched.
