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.
