I Thee Wed: Jesus' Teaching On Marriage And Divorce Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 16, 2021

27B En nuestro Evangelio de hoy Jesús compara el divorcio y posterior matrimonio para la persona divorciada, y lo contrasta con sus enseñanzas y las de Moisés. Lo mismo podemos hacer en nuestros días. Por ejemplo, el Rey Enrique VIII no consiguió que su matrimonio fuera anulado por Roma ...read more
