The Redeemed Christian Church of God has expressed concern over the rampant cases of broken marriages and blamed the development on weak foundation.
The church also advised young women to avoid cohabiting with their would-be-husbands (who sometimes may end up not getting married to them) if they must enjoy marital bliss.
The Convener/Wife of the Abuja Regional Pastor, Mrs. Victoria Bolanle Olaade, stated this on Saturday during the 2012 Regional Sisters’ Conference of the RCCG with the theme ‘New approach to Kingdom service.’
Mrs. Olaade said, “The foundation of marriage matters; it is whatever you build on the foundation that will germinate for you to see in the future.
“There is moral decadence in the whole world today. In the olden days, they don’t allow a young woman to go to the house of her husband-to-be, you won’t even know the place.
“But today, something you are supposed to enjoy later, you are enjoying it now and before you know it, it will become distasteful to you and because they have alternative to marriage, they believe that with divorce, they will have their own way.”
At the event, wife of the General Overseer of the church, Mrs. Folu Adeboye, and a former Director-General of the Due Process Office, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, advocated preaching Christ and empowerment of the youth in nation building.
