We rationalize (or rationa-lies) that annulment and nullity of marriage are different from divorce. Maybe different grounds but similar result – brokenness.
The law on divorce is not the solution in upholding the
sanctity of marriage neither going against it.
Before we go against the law on divorce, may we first ask – as
a church, what have we done in protecting marriage?
I am not for the law on
divorce neither I am for it.
Marriage should be reflective of the covenant love of Christ
to His Church – His faithfulness in our being unfaithfulness and faithlessness,
His longsuffering in our impious and His love in our vileness.
But for many, making hasty decisions, entered marriage,
foiled it and turned marriage into a bondage.
No longer taking delight in the weakness nor strength of the other. But
enslaving one and another into a lifetime ordeal.
In making convictions, may we seek the wisdom of the One who
puts a man and a woman together and not of what any religion dictates.
Unless, we believe that it is only religion that put a man
and a woman together and not actually God.
