“There’s no marriage in heaven,” says Nigerian pastor urging clergymen not to divorce their wives.
The Senior Pastor of The Second Coming of Christ’s Ministry, Adewale Giwa, has advised pastors who married more than one wife before entering ministry to avoid divorcing.
Giwa emphasized that clergymen who had multiple wives before becoming ministers should remain committed to them, as there is no marriage in heaven. Speaking during a press conference in his church in Akure, Ondo State, he said:
“There is no place that we should restitute in the Bible, people are only capitalizing on the Old Testament when Jesus Christ said to his disciples, a certain woman married three husbands and they all died, so who should be the original husband of the woman when they get to heaven?
Jesus said in heaven there is nothing like marriage. So if you marry two wives before God calls you, you have to maintain that – You don’t send one packing to please the other because there is no marriage in heaven.
There is a popular Juju musician still alive married to more than two wives but God called him and he became an anointed pastor.
He now made a move for restitution by sending the other wife away while retaining the first, he sent the second wife away while forgetting that the way God thinks is different from how man thinks.
Not long ago, the first wife di3d and he was forced to go and beg the woman he sent away to return back, as we speak the woman lives with him. This goes to tell you that there is no marriage in heaven.”
