Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Divorce in Marriage” – Faith: In today’s Gospel, Jesus proclaimed, “A man and his wife are no longer two; but one flesh. So then, what God has united, human beings must not divide.” Ponder on, “The Sacrament of Marriage, is a sacred bond between the married couple and God, and cannot be broken. Dispensation in marriage, is affirming that there is no marriage bond at all.”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Matthew 19:3-6
Some Pharisees approached Jesus, and to put him to the test they said, ‘Is it against the Law for a man to divorce his wife on any pretext whatever?’
He answered, ‘Have you not read that the Creator from the beginning made them male and female and that he said: This is why a man leaves his father and mother and becomes attached to his wife, and the two become one flesh? They are no longer two, therefore, but one flesh. So then, what God has united, human beings must not divide.’
