A couple in Asaba, Delta State, Benson Ogwu and his wife, who have been married for 16 years without a child, yesterday set ablaze their Holy Bible around Bonssac quarters.
While their action attracted hundreds of passersby, LeadershipNg reports that the couple, members of a popular Pentecostal church in the area, were angry after their high expectations of making babies were shattered by a prophet who told them they had a delay in having children because they were far from God. Consequently, they claimed that God has abandoned them, but an insider said that they were disillusioned after several prophets told them that the Lord was totally fed up of their Christian practice.
They were said to have sought the assistance of some native doctors, who allegedly lured them into serving his idol popularly known as “Onishe” where they were assured they would have children within three years. Family sources said that the couple was married in the Catholic Church, which they dumped afterwards for the popular Pentecostal church where accusing fingers have been pointed to the pastor for raising false prophesies.
Lord have mercy & save their souls...

ReplyDeleteHaving children or not does not fulfil any marriage. Must they have children?
ReplyDeleteHave they considered adoption ?
