How does the church
react to this issue???
• The Catechism says,
“Divorce is a grave offense against the
natural law. It claims to break the contract,
to which the spouses freely consented, to
live with each other till death. Divorce
does injury to the covenant of salvation, of
which sacramental marriage is the sign.
Contracting a new union, even if it is
recognized by civil law, adds to the
gravity of the rupture: the remarried
spouse is then in a situation of public and
permanent adultery”
(CCC 2384).
