The General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E.A Adeboye, has warned his church members not to marry outside the RCCG.

Here is a brief excerpts from the sermon:

Romans 8:31: The reason RCCG weds with the bible instead of a ring is because the bible can never change, the word of God stands forever but a ring can be removed at anytime!

Don’t marry a Delilah! Don’t marry for beauty . Proverbs 31:30 says beauty is vain.

Don’t ever marry outside the church and you have no reason to marry outside RCCG. The reason is that If you are both from the same church even when trouble comes it is easier for the pastors to handle it! …continue to see the rest


Don’t marry a girl simply because she can sing! In the choir there are some people that can sing but they are falling angels! Marry a prayer warrior! If a girl cannot pray for 1 hour, don’t marry her.


Don’t marry a girl who is lazy! Don’t marry a girl who cannot cook, she needs to know how to do cores and cook because you cannot afford to be eating out all the time.

Don’t marry a girl who is worldly! If you do, you have carried what you’ll worship for the rest of your life!



Ok! Marry Yourselves

  • I believe that Pastor Adeboye knows what he is saying. After over 30 years in the ministry and counselling thousands of married people all over the world, I think it will be suicidal and foolish to throw his words away. The church he is referring to is not only the RCCG but the believing body of Christ

  • U had better not misquote a man of God. It seems u will do any thing just to get comments on ur dry blog. "Dont marry outside the church" means dont marry an unbeliever. "u have no reason to marry outside RCCG" does not mean u must marry from RCCG. better b careful...
