The Indissolubility of Marriage: Amoris Laetitia in Context

More about the book

This book dives a thorough presentation of the Christian teaching on marital indissolubility in order to consider the various interpretations of Pope Francis' Amoris laetitia. The author argues that Amoris laetitia upholds the traditional Catholic teaching that a valid and consummated Christian marriage is indissoluble, in accord with the teachings of Jesus and the Apostle Paul, as solemnly and authoritatively taught by the Council of Trent and affirmed by later popes and the Second Vatican Council. He demonstrates why implementations of the document should not undermine this doctrine. --Book cover
