Concerned Pastor Challenges Engaged Couples To Eliminate Premarital Potential For Divorce

Pastor Gives Premarital Counseling With Guarantees of Marriages of 10 Years or Minimum Triple Money Back Refund

Mableton (Atlanta), GA November 5, 2001: Pastor Roney Smith of Anointed Believers Baptist Church believes that it is time for a winner take all battle between the Word of God and the current divorce rate. As a Man of God, he is putting his money where his mouth is and is currently providing premarital counseling with a never heard before offer of guaranteeing the marriage for 10 years or a money back refund of a minimum of tripling the premarital counseling fees paid.

Smith states, With the recent national crisis and biological terrorism fears, the current marriage climate demands a holy preemptive strike on preventing bad marriages that should never have taken place while being assured that all precautionary steps are taken to prepare couples for a strong marriage as we enter into the marriage proposal season involving the holidays of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve". Smith believes, Marriages originating from proposals that take place with a 'because of the worlds affairs and holiday seasons versus an 'in spite of perspective are virtually guaranteed to not reach their potential. The recent terrorist attacks and public anthrax scares offer a doomsday outlook for marriages as a trap that falsely prepares a couple to die together today, tomorrow, or next week, but not live happily with each other the following month or next year".

10 Year Guarantee Is Biblically Based
The rationale for the 10-year guarantee comes directly from the Holy Bible. The number 10 is believed to represent a divine solution in the form of a completion. Examples are found in Genesis where Joseph was sold into slavery by his 10 brothers before ultimately leading the kingdom through famine, in Daniel where there were 10 days to prove whether Gods provision was better than the kings provision, and in Malachi 3:10 where Gods faithfulness is proven with tithes for Him to open the windows of heaven and the outpouring of blessings. Smith states, After 10 years of marriage, you find that a marriage has come full circle at least once. There are very few life events that will be totally new or not a variation of what has been experienced already before". Smith concludes, As long as a couple is aware of, recognizes, and learns from the circle of life that is present from Genesis to Revelation, the marriage can survive any marital threats and prosper. We can guarantee that the Word of God will be totally relevant, strengthen, and bond engaged couples that are individually receptive to deeply listening to and talking with one another before entering into Holy Matrimony. Marriages that should not take place will be clearly and unequivocally identified, as the engaged couple themselves in advance of any wedding ceremony will recognize potentially marriage-ending threats. The couple needs to be able to pass the moment of truth that will definitely come during the proposed marriage".

The premarital counseling and money back guarantee do not require face-to-face sessions with Pastor Smith and are available via the internet. The engaged couple is required to create a videotape of themselves asking and answering the questions directly to each other and send the videotape to Pastor Smith for marriage certification and reception of the money back guarantee. The fees for the premarital counseling range from a rate of $100 when given as a gift by a third party up to $1500 and the money back guarantees range from $500 to $5000. All funds are earmarked for construction of a youth and family center, training of additional family counselors, and worldwide evangelistic missions.
