A pastoral letter on Pope Francis' apostolic exhortation Amoris laetitia by Bishop Pedro Daniel Martinez Perea of San Luis, Argentina is being welcomed as “great news” for its clarity and directness.Bishop Martinez's letter, issued on June 29 and sent to the priests of his diocese, is titled “Marriage, new unions, and the Eucharist in chapter 8 of Amoris laetitia.” It addressed confusion generated by some readings of the docuмent and emphasized the importance of “helping married couples to follow God's plans in their lives.”“The text is very straightforward,” reflected Dr. Kurt Martens, a professor of canon law at The Catholic University of America. “It's a very well done pastoral letter with a lot of teaching opportunity; he does use Pope Francis to emphasize the teaching of the Church. I think it's great news.”In his pastoral letter, Bishop Martinez called Amoris laetitia “a great catechesis on love in the family, which is the cell of society” and said it is “a great message of hope during our sojourn in this secularized and earthly world.”He added that marriage has a divinely ordered nature and purpose, and that sacramental marriage is “a public good in the Church, a common good.”http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/argentine-pastoral-letter-accompaniment-in-marriage-must-be-faithful-28749/
Here's a line from your lovely little liberal/modernist article, Poche:"If responding to the Church’s call to continence is not possible..."Now did the good "bishop" explain, or give an example of, exactly the circuмstances that would account for such a scenario?This #FakeChurch double-speak hogwash is straight of the conciliarist playbook--announce deviations from tradition while simultaneously proclaiming that nothing has changed.Poche is a liberal and should be banned!
The apostle Paul makes the same beginning in one of his letters to the Corinthians.
1 Corinthians 7:2? Different wording and different context. Besides, just out of curiosity, do you use some new age pseudo-Catholic version? I much more enjoy reading about your cravings for colored folk food and junk than your new church vomit. :barf:
You are right, the context is different. However the Argentine bishops are using Amoris Laetitia to teach the indisolubility of marriage.
While calling Amoris laetitia “a profound catechesis,”...
Poche,Even if you think that divorced and remarried couples should have access to Communion, let's not call "AL" profound. It was bland, airy-fairy, legalese dumbed down to the junior high school level. I know you are quoting a Bishop, but you should correct the Bishop because you know better.
