The Founder of the International Central Gospel Church, Pastor Mensah Otabil

Singleness is not a curse – Otabil
Theologian, motivational speaker and entrepreneur,
Pastor Mensah Otabil, has noted that singleness is
not a curse by any means.


The Founder of the International Central Gospel
Church (ICGC) explained that singleness is a life
like any other that can be lived purposefully.



He stated that Jesus Christ and the Apostle Paul
set a good example of how singleness can be lived
purposefully.

Answering questions on ‘singleness and
premarital issues’ in a televised interaction
with some members of his church, he said among
other things, that “There are people who choose
to be single and there are others who find
themselves being single.

“Most single people would probably at a pointy
be hoping to get married.

“Because marriage was the focus if they don’t
get married it would seem like a disappointment
but if they had chosen not to marry then there
will be no disappointment then.”



He added “So, I think it is just the fact that
people hope to get married and don’t get
married, it makes them feel like they have been
unfulfilled or a dream has not been met and
expectation has not been fulfilled.

“But singleness by itself is not a curse by any
means. It is life like any other life and can be
lived purposefully.”

He further stated that persons contemplating
marriage should make it a priority to marry those
they share the same “core spiritual values”
with.
