How much dowry can make a Bride-Price?

Dear Saints, the question on “How much dowry can make a bride-price”; has been frequently asked in the Churches in some cultures concern. It was asked in the last family Life Seminar we conducted in Juba, and even here in the media when discussing marriage principles. It is a broad topic of its own that need to be comprehended in biblical, social and economic contexts: to study the role of groom, the role of bride and the role of their parents. However, let me share this hint for this brief and informal discussion.

First of all, the language of the question need correction by obmitting the term “price” which is not that ethical. There is no bride-price, not at all. A lady who is created by the Creator with equal status with man has no price: regardless of quality and quantity of a dowry.

The only highest and equivelant price for the bride is the groom, in theological and anthoropoligical contexts—to be a son-in-law to bride’s parents. Again, the bride-price is the groom. This is not to condemn dowry, provided it is not a conditional demand against marriage ideal. And dowry is not the only thing for a groom to prepare for marriage. A gentleman who have only dowry for marriage (without a budget for settling marriage and management of a new family) is far from readiness to marry. However, the Church has no saying on how much should the dowry be. We only preach spiritual, healthy and peaceful marriage from betroth upto wedding.

In my view, (as someone who experienced marriage of my sons and daughters, and knowing cultural history) the dowry is not a bride-price, even in most cultures where it is being practiced. It is given for four purposes: (1) for appreciation to bride’s parents, (2) for facilitation of marriage services, and (3) for bride’s contribution to leave behind for her permenant departure from parental family, and (4) for the security of a new family for the first few years. Therefore, dowry has nothing to do with the worth of bride.
Because the worth of the bride is groom. According to Bible, marriage is to be held in honor among all. (Hebrew 13:4b).

Many Adventist spoke about the last three days seminar which was done at Sherikat Central SDA church.
However the seminar did no harm indeed it has enlightened our minds as members.
Thanks goes to Pastor Isaiah Malek Garang for giving his previous time to be minister of the gospel and all the youth for their time as well.
May God bless us all.

Matthew 6: 33

Seek first the Kingdom of God and everything you desire shall be added to you.

There are times we wish all things to be given to us by God when we are not in his right path.
1 Peter 3: 12 says the eyes and ears of our lord are over the righteous.

Let's seek God and all we want shall be given to us.
Thanks.. 🙏

Three practices shown during church services.

1. During church service people show less attention.

2. People seems to be facing hot temperature but can persevere hot temperatures in their offices.

3. They seems to be delayed for only three to four hours but can attend events of ten to twelve hours.

To those who go to church,
There are sometimes you feel like there is no God. Later on when things are hard you call God's name. Question is which God again yet you concluded be that"there is no God" Do we Christian pray God for time being or is it a order from Him(God the Creator).

Many Go to church because they see others going. Many Go to church because they have nothing to do at home on that day. Many go to church because they feel like.. .. We those who are called by His name should not be doing it that way.

We go to church because its is written in the bible, Luke 4: 16. If Jesus the son of God could go to church regularly. Then who are we?
We go to church to worship Him as stated in the bible, Rev 14:7.

Many times some said " God is the God of Israel" question is are you Israelites? No, then why did He created you? Another question, Are you not from the gemology of Adam? And who created Adam? Is Him God. So why do we bring excuses because of ignorance? God created us for the purpose. And you have to fulfill your purpose. That is to worship Him.

Conclusively.
Bible is the guidance to all Christians even Muslims. It is stated in Kuran that if you have anything you didn't understand contact the Bible.
So let's follow or base our worship in the Bible.
God Bless you!
