I am thinking about the woman at the well with her five husbands and the one she was living with at that time, she was not married to him. He didn’t say go back and live with your first husband. I took it as “repent, get your house in order, woman, and marry the man you are with.” Other interpretations?
The jewish woman was under jewish law which allowed for divorce. Jesus, according to the Catholic faith brought marriage back to what it was supposed to be. Also note that while a woman or man is civilly divorced, they can still recieve communion. It is the “second marriage” that is the problem. To go back to the woman at the well, she was with a man that was not her husband. Going back to her first husband may be the right thing to do, but Jesus certainly wanted to stop her adulterous lifestyle.
Well it is obvious . You do not understand the sacrifice at the Cross for YOU. At the moment of Christ sacrifice, everything changed— Did it not? Or did Christ die for nothing?
