- Key Christian Values
- Agape- Unconditional love that
Christians aspire to, as shown in the
marriage vows: for better for worse;
richer for poorer; in sickness and in
health; til death do us part
- Forgiveness- The Christian teaching that places importance on
second chances and sorrow for any mistakes made. Jesus
teaches "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who
trespass against us." Marriages should show this forgiveness in
action.
- Respect and Equality- Although the marriage partnership has roles and responsibilities
for men and women which give them different jobs to perform in the family, all
relationships are to be based on respect and equality as shown by following Christ
- For you
are all one
in Christ
(Gal 3)
- For you
are all one
in Christ
(Gal 3)
- Agape- Unconditional love that
Christians aspire to, as shown in the
marriage vows: for better for worse;
richer for poorer; in sickness and in
health; til death do us part
- Christian Attitudes to Divorce and Remarriage
- Since 1981 the Church of England has accepted divorce as a reality but does not see it as an ideal
solution to marriage problems. Re- marriage within the Church is allowed if the vicar or Bishop is
confident that the conditions of marriage are understood properly
- Protestant Christians accept with sadness that divorce happens although it is never seen as an
ideal. Remarriage is permitted if the pastor is satisfied that the situation is genuine
- The Orthodox Church accepts that marriages can and do end in divorce. It allows remarriage in
Church but restricts this to a maximum of twice
- Roman Catholics do not accept divorce
as a solution to marriage problems and
will not re-marry any divorced person in
a religious ceremony.
- They do have a system of anullment which is a procedure to
show that a marriage is void and the original ceremony was
flawed. Three areas of impediment are the only reason for
invalidating the marriage:
- 1. One of the
persons did not
fully
understand the
meaning of
marriage
- 2. The marriage
was not
consummated
(No sexual
relations)
- 3. One of
the persons
lied when
making the
vows
