God grant you both many years! ☦🌹 💗 We got married in 2014 in an historic wedding chapel in Las Vegas (the city next to ours) as I was a lapsed Protestant with Roman Catholic sympathies and he was an active LDS Mormon so we didn't have a church we attended together. We were supposed to be married in the gymnasium of an LDS meeting house by one of their "bishops" but that fell through. At our ceremony we requested that God be mentioned in the ceremony and they said yes but He was not mentioned by the "reverend". Fast forward to now, we are both devout Orthodox Christians and we had our Crowning Ceremony in January after waiting awhile. Our marriage is whole now, united with God. Every Orthodox couple needs the Crowning Ceremony! It is the only way to unite our marriage to God! May God bless you and all here. ☦

No, it was because he spilled seed. Look up “Florilegium on Onan: A Response to “Birth Control and Family Planning.” It’s a florilegium of both Eastern and Western fathers universally speaking against spilling seed (Onanism).

Except for infidelity on the part of your ex, remarriage is generally forbidden. The scriptures are clear.
@stevelenores56374 ай бұрын
Let's see on this one. I don't think the apostles were remarried by Jesus. In Acts when whole families were baptized there was no mention of the couple having to say their marriage vows again. What would that say about the children already conceived and born before the couples baptism? As scripture and the church fathers are silent perhaps we should also be silent.

I found out that my ex husband was never baptized and my Catholic priest married us anyway.! We went to pre cana and everything and it was never brought up. I never thought to bring it up as his mother was Presbyterian and His father was Jewish. We were so young. Now, they don't know what to do. I can't get it annulled, as it wasn't a valid marriage, so does that mean I lived in sin for 25 yrs and didn't know it!. Do I go to hell for that? Am I forgiven? is the marriage I am in now like a first marriage since the first wasn't valid? it's a hot mess.

If you truly didn't know, I really don't think God would judge you for that, given that Christians are under grace and not under law. I do not know the particulars of your circumstance but the cause of divorce is probably a lot more in question than the "legitimacy" of your marriage. Either way, confess and ask for forgiveness in repentance, and your sins (even unknown sins) will be forgiven.

Kate: God would not hold you accountable for sin of which you were unaware. You are not held accountable. Please let that sink in. God does not hold accountable those who did not know they were breaking a serious law. God is not like human judges. He sees the condition of your heart. I'm just an educated Benedictine who is becoming, God willing, Orthodox. So, I suggest you talk to other priests and not count entirely on a KZfaq video for your spiritual formation.

Your proposition therefore extends thusly: Any wife with a hysterectomy who has sex with her husband is gravely sinning. Further, any wife having sex after menopause is also sinning. Interesting how celibate monks seem to like spreading this very unpastoral vision.
@OrthodoxEthos4 ай бұрын
Is it blessed to get a hysterectomy? Sexual relations after menopause are blessed if the married couple is open to having children if God provides them. The Theotokos, St. John the Forerunner and other saints were the offspring of such unions.
