Church Cancels A Wedding Because The Bride Is Three Months Gone

Hmmmm,I dont know if this is real but the topic would make a good topic to ponder on here....








I heard that a Church in Mararaba today cancelled the wedding of a couple because the bride was found to be 3 months pregnant. Policemen were even invited to restore the peace... 

My questions: 

what if the bride had aborted the pregnancy before the Church did the pregnancy test? 

Is the Church aware that many women are killing their unborn babies to pass their pregnancy tests before wedding? 


What about those fornicating long before their wedding but smart enough to avoid pregnancy? Will the Church wed them? 

Can the Church show us a scriptural basis for taking this decision? Is Church wedding even a scriptural thing or a borrowed English tradition? Your comments please!

    1. How can she be 3 months pregnant and want to do a church wedding? What happened to court and traditional.. she can't tell me she not aware of the rules and regulations of the church

    2. @ Richbee, it doesn't follow o. I had a friend, who did her Church wedding wearing white, and she was heavy as in heavy. Y didn't d Church cancel na???

    3. Exactly. "To each, his own". Every church has its rules and regulations of which either of the couple must have known. She could have simply done traditional and gone gone to the registry. When she puts to bed, she can come do the white wedding

    4. Every organisation has rules otherwise there ll be lawlessness, if it's their rule it's simply just wise to go do registry if you cannot keep urself, I went for a wedding rehearsal on trousers and I was sent out of the church premises, as in they asked me to go and stand by the gate. This is just rehearsal ooo not the wedding proper. Didn't complain cox I later discovered it's their rules but was offended cox it was my first time and my friend didn't pre inform me.

    5. Stella,you asked what if the bride had aborted the pregnancy before the church wedding?
      I ask, what if the bride had closed her legs and pretended to be a mermaid before the church wedding?
      And this is not me being sanctimonious; cos I'm far from being a saint,but the truth has to be told not minding whose ox is gored.

    6. Can we abound in sin while asking God for more grace ?

      (Not a must you wed in the church, the bible respects Traditional and the society recognises court wedding)

    7. To ansa all yur questions Mr Echela,
      1) she has committed MURDER and also deciet .... (God forgives all manner of sin if u repent truly)

      2) why would the church have data of aborted pregnancies? Its you, your conscience and GOD

      3) the biblical standard is crystal clear. Formication is a sin. To be a Christian is "to be Christ like"

      4) the Bible recognises Traditional wedding which clearly states parental consent must be sought before u marry.

      So for me, Traditional wedding is d most important. Court wedding is for record purposes. While church wedding is for OWANBE purposes.

      Hope u r satisfied will thses answers ?

    1. It is permissible to marry a woman who is pregnant irrespective of whether the man she is marrying is the father of the child or not. The only difference is if the man is the father of the unborn child he would be able to have intercourse with her whereas in the situation where the man is not the father of the child, he would not be allowed to have intercourse with her until she gives birth to the child. (Hidayah p.312 v.2) and Surat Nisa V.24

    2. Churches have their rules and regulations, every church has a rule that guilds them just like some churches don't wear trousers, others don't tie their hair, some don't wear ear rings. If you must attend the church you must abide by the rules! Shikena!! Seen a similar case too, you know u r pregnant quietly do court and traditional or look for a church that weds pregnant women

    1. Gbam!! My church will never wed a pregnant lady, that doesn't make my church bad. I know members of my church who got pregnant and had to wed in another church, after their wedding they returned and everybody congratulated them. The couple should have just respected themselves and looked for a church that weds pregnant couples.

      But I know of one couple that was pregnant b4 the wedding date, so a day b4 the wedding when the lady was to submit her urine sample, her fiance gave her his own urine sample to submit and that was how they deceived the pastor....very sad!. But they later asked God for forgiveness.

    1. That serves all of you that do "church weddings" right. What the heck is church wedding? There's nothing like that. It's WHITE wedding. Oyibo wedding. There's no where you find "church wedding" in the bible. Even the wedding Jesus Christ attended was a traditional wedding. The Whiteman integrated his culture into Christianity and the black man as usual, foolishly bought it hook, line and sinker. Some even regard the so-called church wedding more than our own traditional wedding. The main wedding as far as I'm concerned is the payment of dowry. Once your dowry is paid and accepted, Heaven regards you as husband and wife. The Blackman has refused to be proud of his culture. He will have a traditional wedding, church wedding and Court Registry!! Only one person dey marry the same girl 3 times!!! No wonder they call us monkeys.

  12. White wedding isn't in the Bible, it's a borrowed English tradition because back then, most traditional weddings had rituals that were not biblical.

    ...but now, thanks to the 21st century mentality, most of these none biblical practices have been put away. To me, the traditional wedding is the most important, then, they can be considered as husband and wife.
    ...but for people can, they should go ahead with the white wedding.

    4. I stand with the church!
      Every organization has it's rules,values and norms that act as a guiding factor. And I'm positive the intending couple knew about this.

      Why would you come to say your vows before God in a pregnant state?

      God has his standards!

      HE instituted marriage and HE initiated Sex,but HE made it clear it's strictly for Married couples!
      So why would you flout his rules and have the temerity to come before him bearing the evidence of your disobedience to his words as a badge,to say a vow that you yet again might not keep?

      Even some villages don't accept bride price on a pregnant woman.
      And these same people that come before God bearing the 'fruit of their disobedience' brazenly wouldn't dare do such if same applies in their village.
      Why? They fear the repercussions from the village deity; and these are the so called Christians!
      Yet they have no regards for God and his word!

      Were it in the old testament, the thunder that would fire anyone that dares it,I'm sure would still be in the parade ground warming up!

      Thank God for Jesus.
      Thank God for Grace.
      Thank God for the blood of the covenant of the new testament;

      for Sodom and Gomorrah has got nothing on this generation.

  14. It baffles me honestly. The couple decided that they are tired of living in sin, they decided to get married and the church refused them. This church is now encouraging the couple to continue living in sin. It has no biblical basis. It is simply churches in Nigeria taking religion too far!! It is terrible. I am strongly against churches that do not wed pregnant women, churches that because the bride is no longer a virgin refuse her wearing a veil and churches that only do marriage blessing because the couple have had sex b4. I am strongly against them. Hypocrites!! That's what they are.

    It is highly acceptable in Catholic churches but it's forever a NO NO in the Pentecostal churches.

    Feel free to go and seal your marriage at the registry or join a Catholic church where a man and woman with 5 children already will wake up one morning and walk down the isle in holy matrimony(?)

A church should be about salvation and not about doctrine. Am sure the same church that refused to wed them will gladly collect their tithes and offerings. Hypocrites!
      Instead of refusing to wed them, why not mandate the bride not to wear a white wedding gown? Ndi ala!

  22. Every living church does not encourage see before marriage. In short during your counselling they will ask and advise you biblically to try and stop fornication. They will warn you that you will not be joined if u are found two weeks gone. Truth is at the altar. The pastor will say and "the two shall become one" two not three or four or five depending on the numbers of babies. It's better I'd you are pregnant to be trutdyl, go for your court wedding, come to the church ask for forgiveness and ask for the church to join you. You will now be joined as two becoming one..

  27. World people, u like to test boundaries. If a church takes a stand against fornication and wed a couple who are pregnant, would it not be hypocrisy? D only way to determine fornication is pregnancy as many women might have lost their virginity before becoming christians. Why will a christian disobey God's instruction about sleeping with a man/ woman who is jot ur spouse and expect or get angry if a church upholds her standards? If u want to carry belle and do wedding, please go to a church where you will not be opposed and stop trying to blame a church that has its principles laid down concerning issues like this. We want to always have our ways and decide what happens everywhere we are even in God's presence, what has become of God's standards and respect for the almighty? Abi is it because of Jesus grace that we are taking God's patience for granted? He is still a consuming fire who hates sin, as much as he is a loving father who cares for us.

    1. The only recognised way of marriage in d Bible is payment of dowry which is d traditional form of marriage. Abraham did it even Isaac n Jacob not to talk of Joseph d father of Jesus etc. White wedding is not seen anywhere in d Bible. Finally would our pastors rather d couples live in sin? Dey should also learn to ask themselves wat dey think Jesus will do if he was in a position to wed pregnant couples, would he have casted dem away or shown mercy n compassion just like d case of d prostitute ( he without sin should cast d first Stone).

Once you pay, the person who receives the money will confirm u then u get your own referral link. Then u register 2 people with your referral link, this 2 people will get their own 2 people each (i.e 4 people) to register with their own referral link and that's how you make your 50k cos those 4 people will pay to you.

  33. White wedding is a borrowed tradition, but very significant in Christian faith.

    Church wedding is NOT for everyone and it's NOT compulsory. There are other ways to wed, in fact the traditional engagement/wedding is the most important.

    It then means if you must wed in a particular way. The rules and regulations MUST be strictly adhered to. If the church says no pregnancy, then so be it. Does the bride want to claim she's not aware of this rule? She must have been told during counselling.

    So if the court says there must be a witness before they can join you, would you dare go to the court without witnesses?

    Or the traditional engagement says you must bring bride price before they can traditionally join you, would you dare not bring it?

    Let's not be sentimental here, the bride must have been aware, yet she thought sympathy could be evoked to bypass the existing rule. It doesn't mean she's a cast away or she when takes her child there for dedication, they will not oblige. It's just that rules must be followed.

    Church existing rules have been diluted long enough. That will serve as a deterrent. I'm glad we still have churches who take a stand without wavering regardless of the circumstances.

  37. There is a saying, "what you don't know won't hurt you"

    Whether the bride and groom fornicated or not, whether the bride has aborted or not, thing is, the church doesn't know about it.

    Pregnancy however, is a glowing evidence to show that they have been very very bad..lol

    What I don't get is this, you already know your church is against joining a pregnant bride and groom in holy matrimony,why go ahead and do that? Church doctrines are there for a reason..i say, if you are a member, you respect that.
    Either that or you leave the church and look for a church that their doctrines are more Lax.

The church would rather pretend, close their eyes,minds and ears to the hard facts of reality.They know all the aforementioned happens,but no,image doctrine of the founder and their personal belief is everything.Maybe they should also make it mandatory that one must be a virgin before marriage and put in measures to check the virginity thing,this should apply to the husband and wife.I can't deal abeg,this topic has and will always be something that no amount of justifying their stands would convince me.

  40. Marriage is meant for two pipo n not three... If they find out you got pregnant,they won't do the normal one again inside d church, they will do blessing of marriage in the church hall n u won't wear a white gown again. So I have seen before. I think church wedding is scriptural cos it was there Jesus performed a miracle of turning water into wine at Canaan in Galilee.

  41. Every church has it set rule, abeg let us face the fact, even in my parish as a catholic, they dont wed pregnant couple, it is started bodly in the bulletin, you can ask for transfer of marriage after your marriage class oh, but the new priest started it clearly when he was transfer that he is not going to wed any couple with pregnancy, that it helps before to feel is the right thing to carry 8months pregnancy for marriage.

  42. Stella if churches start joining pregnant ladies, do u know what churches will turn into? Yes people fornicates, and good churches are trying to stop that with Bible studies and counseling. The Bible is clear, I don't know why we always add our own. Man and woman. It's a sin on their head for aborting. 3months? Were the couple hoping that they will be joined in holy matrimony with a child. It's not by force to Wed in a church, so why disgrace their selves and family members.

  43. The bride just wanted the disgrace. She should have done traditional and registry. Church said you can't marry with pregnancy, then don't carry pregnancy there . It's like going to NYSC camp pregnant and begging that they should let you stay. Why should the church bend to suit her situation? Rules are rules jare.

  44. Sex before marriage is wrong. Having said that,secondary virginity is encouraged for people who have 'eaten apple' before marriage. Getting pregnant before marriage shows the bed has been defiled. God's standard will never change come what may,as a Christian, even if what you want to do is traditional or registry wedding you shouldn't defile the bed before doing it.

  46. Lol. That's how they try to complicate things for people. A very close family friend of mine was due for marriage. Wedding date fixed. And the church insisted she must go for pregnancy test in the church clinic. Hmm she agreed knowing she was four months gone and not showing, rather getting bigger on jer hips. She told her friend to answer her name and go with thr form to the clinic. Afterall no one knows her in the clinic. So her friend answered her name, and the thing came out negative. The church wedded them. In less then four and half months, she put to bed. Everybody open mouth. She and her hubby simply change church.

  50. It’s really funny to see most of these churches taken advantage of the spirituality of desperate African worshippers. Well i feel it’s high time we as citizens question the rules and the fundamentals of these churches. I remember my elder brother had his wedding in a Catholic church in oversea country, officiated by my immediate Uncle the (Rev Father) after having had his 1st child before marriage. We have to stand up against all these decimation in Africa. Above all, I can’t imagine having my wedding in Africa.

  52. Stellz, every church is governed by rules known as doctrines. Not all doctrines have Biblical citations backing them up but they are considered sacred and being a member of that church implies that you've accepted to be bound by said doctrines. A good example is the ban of smoking cigarettes by most churches. There's no express provision in the Bible literally forbidding cigarettes, but that doesn't make it acceptable.

    As christians, we know God frowns at premarital sex but a lot of us took/ still take God's mercy for granted and had sex before we got married/ still having sex while unmarried. If a church's doctrines stipulate that the church will not wed a pregnant bride, why get pregnant and expect considerations? Why try to justify breaking the rules? Why not leave and become a member of a church with more liberal doctrines? I still can't understand why some people go against the rules of a particular church, then cry blue murder when they get slammed with sanctions.

    Asking these questions and trying to be logical still fails to justify going against a church's doctrines. Is like commending a rapist for using a condom. Logically, that would be preferable but that doesn't make rape acceptable.

    Aborting a baby in order to pass a pregnancy test is despicable and callous! The bride may fool the church and getaway with it but she can't fool God. No Bible believing church will wed couples who have been having premarital sex, the problem is, a lot of people will lie that they have been chaste. So don't think the church will ignore the premarital sex rule and wed the couple because the bride to be isn't pregnant. The church will ask couples intending to get married if they've been having premarital sex, a lot of couples will lie. The thing is, pregnancy is the evidence that premarital sex has been going on, so the church can't go against its doctrines just because the bride didn't commit a more grievous sin. I know of a church were couples whom have been having premarital sex will not be wedded unless they abstain, at least 6months before the wedding. Some other churches will wed pregnant brides, just to discourage abortion. Some others will rather conduct the blessing of the marriage instead of joining the couple in Holy matrimony. 

    We can have logical arguments  and criticise this particular doctrine but the fact remains that "if you can't stand the heat...". To avoid embarrassment, be a member of the church whose doctrines fit your lifestyle if you can't adjust your lifestyle to fit the church's.

  54. all these actions is just to reduce immorality.in the olden days as a yoruba woman when you are married their is a way they confirm on your wedding night that u are a virgin or not, buh because of civilisation everything is being scrapped out. personally sex before marriage is not right because there are so many bad effects to it which includes clouding ur sex of judgment , stds to mention a few, you might av always dreamt of ur wedding to be done in a particular buh jst because u are pregnant everything will be speed up so u wont be put to shame. it is because of this immoral activities that we have a lot of baby mamas. to those people saying she is better off than those who aborted well to me they are the same its jst dat ppl wont see her to criticise her buh they are both sinners in the eyes of God. my advice if u are pregnant go to registry or do traditional marriage then u can go to church afterwards for child dedication party. my opinion.God bless us all.

  56. But Joseph married mary with her pregnancy . I know it was ordained by God to happen that way but to the ordinary man out there they would believe that they were already forniicating . If a bride is already pregnant before the wedding(which is just a ceremony) let the church wed them and maybe put them on suspension thereafter to serve as a warning to others . Just my thought .

  57. No one can deceive God!
    I know a top pastor (he's late now) whose son impregnated one of their female member, they went ahead and aborted the baby thinking no one knew about it. They committed the sin they preached against on the altar.
    In this same church, they refused to wed someone else who was few weeks pregnant (who is fooling who!?)
    The same man is now a big pastor in the States.

    Back to the story, if you know you're not ready to abide by the rules and regulations of the denomination you belong; better for you to leave or perhaps, go to the one that suites your lifestyle.

    There was a post about a woman who refused to swore an oath, she refused because she is afraid of the traditional gods. But is she afraid of the Almighty God? The problem with us Christians today, is that we are no longer afraid of God's wrath, because God is full of grace and merciful, doesn't mean we should take Him for granted.
    The bible preached against fornication, God is highly against fornication, but Christian brothers and sisters still indulged in it, with the mind that they'll beg God for forgiveness.
    Why not abstain.

    These same people will not break the law because they are afraid of the law enforcement, but they will be quick to break the law of God and that of the Church.

    The pastor should have pardon them and Wed them just to show the merciful side of the Church.

    2. My dear many of these pregnancy before marriage is because of late marriages which is really plaguing our society now,a lot of people plan to wed as virgin's by by the time you get to 36yrs only a few will have their dreams of marrying as a virgin's come true,many of our grannies married at 17 or 18 but look around you today many of the ladies are 37 up until even 43 getting married for the first time with loads of ridicule they would have encountered,they would be at the mercy of the men who are even more ridiculed for marrying old layer who may not 've able to bear a child,etc

  61. That's the doctrine of the church. I have friends that were pregnant before getting married and opted for traditional and court weddings. The Bible clearly states that a man will leave his father and mother and be joined with his wife and the two shall become one. Not the man being joined to his wife and unborn kid(s)....so that means you're not joining only two people probably three, four or five as the case may be.
    The couple should stick to the rules of wherever they want to be joined. Even if its court marriage, there are certain conditions to be fulfilled.

  63. I don't support premarital sex #teamabstainance, but now that the deed has been done and evidence to prove it is available, you wed them and then punish them however you deem it fit. It is wrong for anybody to preach Matthew 7 vs 1 and go ahead to do same in the name of church doctrine. Yes, they've fornicated but by not wedding them, thereby encouraging them to live in sin, what are you encouraging? Any and every body can be tempted and fall, so let's not give room for more sin stemming from a single one

    ReplyDelete
  64. Premarital sex is not just a sin, it is also morally wrong. I am not judging but if a bride gets pregnant before her wedding, she should do marriage blessing, which she can do in her reception venue still wearing her wedding gown. I do not fault the church, they have their rules and doctrines, if a bride can't abide by it, she should wed else where. Why would she want to eat her cake and have it?
    If the church weds someone who committed an abortion, they are very much unaware of it, so how do you accuse someone of what he has no knowledge? No church will ever encourage or support abortion, if a bride deceived the church that way, the shame is on her, the church has no blame, she has her maker to answer to.
