The Vatican Meddling In Marriage: Roman Catholic Annulment & The Forbidden Eucharist

Many Catholics live with deep guilt regarding the Catholic laws on marriage. Without an annulment Catholics are forbidden from taking the Eucharist. A true understanding of marriage and the Gospel are needed by literally millions of Catholics.

Larry Wessels, director of Christian Answers of Austin, Texas/ Christian Debater (YouTube channel CANSWERSTV; websites: BIBLEQUERY.ORG, HISTORYCART.COM, & MUSLIMHOPE.COM) actually attends the same church in Austin, Texas with former Roman Catholic priest for 22 years Richard Bennett (website: BEREANBEACON.ORG) so the opportunity to present Richard's research is truly by God's providence.

Defining marriage for its own purposes, breaking in pieces some vows of marriage, while putting together stipulations never intended by the Creator is all part and parcel of the Papacy's meddling in marriages. While the Catholic Church gives lip service to marriage as fashioned by God in its basic meaning and structure, in its law and practice it is totally different. The Catholic Church claims to have absolute authority over marriage and therefore exercises total legislation
over marriage, even its validity and unmaking. For example, Pope Leo XIII tried to vindicate the Catholic Church's usurped authority over the institution of marriage when he declared, "When Christ, therefore, renewed matrimony and raised it to such a great [i.e., sacramental] excellence, He gave and confided to the Church, the entire legislation in the matter." In Rome's Code of Canon Law she states, "Marriage cases of the baptized belong to the ecclesiastical judge by the proper right."
