“Don’t marry a girl if she cannot cook or pray for one hour” - Pastor Adeboye

The aforementioned statement is credited to Pastor E. Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG). Not only that, the G.O as fondly called by members of his church said members of RCCG shouldn’t marry other Christians.

According to a report on Vanguard, Pastor Adeboye, has counselled youths of the church on marriage, saying “don’t ever 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!

Don’t marry a girl simply because she can sing! In the choir there are some people that can sing but they are fallen angels! Marry a prayer warrior! If a girl cannot pray for one 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 chores 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!”
