The church is the bride of christ. According to St. Paul, Christ has “won” his bride, the Church, by giving his life for her, “the greatest possible demonstration of love.”
I see, so you may think this “implys” Priests and Nuns should fall in love with and marry the CHURCH”? or even Christ!..
Wouldn’t that be adultry?.. there are several other words for that...
Huh? Where did you get that idea? Religious serve Christ through a vocation within the Church.
