Are marriages made in heaven?

Are marriages made in heaven?

Without prejudice to other beliefs, my focus today is fully on Christian marriages. Many of us have heard the saying that marriages are made in heaven and celebrated on earth. What does it mean and how true? For respondents in one school of thought, it means the couples are perfectly matched; “that the couples were predestined to meet and marry before they were even born.” (Jeremiah 29:11). “This means that when God created (the) two people (man and woman), he created them specifically for one another…”

Awankere, unifying carnival for Warri people

It’s a delight to watch as women, married or single cajole men, singing sexually provocative songs in Itsekiri and pidgin English, the language of Warri. But this display of seeming promiscuity should not be taken for granted, only just part of the fun at Umale Okere outing. Who says filial bargain can not be struck at the end of the day!
