Best Answer

no the church would only recognize your first marriage

ANSWER: Yes, if you resolve your 1st marriage through the Church's annulment process. The Catholic Church doesn't recognize "Caesar's" (the state's) divorce decree as sufficient dissolution of a solemn promise/covenant (marriage) made before God and witnesses. Marriage can't just be summarily dismissed as easily as it is now in secular society.

Probably. All previous marriages, civil or religious, have to be dealt with before someone can be married in the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church believes that God does not recognize civil divorces. Jesus said, "Therefore what God has joined together, no human being must separate." (Mark 10:9) However there may be hope of a declaration of nullity. The term "annulment" is a misnomer because the Church does not undo or erase a marriage bond. Rather the Church issues a declaration of nullity when it discovers that the parties were not truly joined by God and hence a full spiritual sacramental marriage as understood by the Church was not present. Then the parties are free to marry for the first time. Approach the appropriate person your in your parish who has been trained in the process. If you encounter difficulties, you may go directly to the diocese. Be prayerful, honest and patient. It takes a while.

Roman Catholic AnswerGod has revealed that when two people marry, it is for life, and that we can do nothing about that. So as long as a spouse is alive, a Catholic could not re-marry as they are already married.

A Catholic can remarry in the Catholic church if their first spouse dies..... or if their first marriage was not in the Catholic Church. A divorced Catholic may also be married in the Catholic church if the first marriage has been annulled..... Annulment is a procedure in the Catholic church where a marriage is proven to not be a marriage as is binding, blessed, good etc. in the church's view of marriage. It is judged by the Vicar general of the Diocese and takes many steps to finish,,,, it goes all the way to Rome for approval... and takes over a year.

Roman Catholic AnswerA Catholic woman may only marry if she is free to marry, meaning that she is not currently married, or bound by religious vows. If, along with a divorce, she received a decree of nullity from the Church (an annulment saying that her marriage was not valid), then she may marry. Otherwise, no.

If a non-Catholic man married a Catholic woman in a Catholic church and the marriage ends in divorce how does the Catholic Church view this marriage and can the man later become a Catholic?

He can certainly become Catholic. Divorce does not prevent one from participating in the Church in any way. The Church sees him as continuing to be involved in a nonsacramental, but valid, marriage. What he cannot do is to *remarry* since that would be adultery in the eyes of the Church.

Can a Catholic man married by the Justice of the Peace to a non-Catholic get married to a Catholic?

Probably. If the Catholic man did not gain permission from his bishop to be married by a minister who is not a Catholic priest or deacon, the Church will not recognize that prior marriage as being valid. Thus, in the eyes of the church he was never married to begin with. If he got a civil divorce from his first "wife" then he would be free under secular law to remarry. Since he was never married before in the eyes of the Church, it is likely that he can marry a Catholic woman (assuming she was never married) in the Catholic church. He should consult with his pastor for a review by a canon lawyer.


Can a divorced or widowed woman becomes a Roman Catholic nun?

Widowed, yes, but the divorce concept is against the teaching of the Catholic church. Unless the divorce was allowed by the church, you may have a hard time to get into being a nun. Of course, there maybe certain exceptions to this, such as a difficult marriage ect, but this divorce should have been removed by the Church first before you can considering becoming a nun.

I was married in a chapel then divorced later and my finance first marriage was in a catholic church then his wife passed Can you get married twice in a Catholic church?

The Catholic church allows remarrying as many times as possible in one condition.You are allowed remarrying if:-Your spouse (Partner) dies because there won't be any marriages and stuff like that in heaven.-You divorce for the right reasons your spouse and remarry. (See divorce conditions)You are only allowed divorcing if:-Your spouse commits adultery (Has intercourse with another woman). You can't divorce for any other reason, that is why if you are planning to marry, you should examine your spouse carefully.So did you divorce your husband for some reason either than him commiting adultery? If you did divorce for some other reason, you cannot get married again because the bible says that if you divorce and marry someone else and have intercourse, both you and your new spouse is commiting adultery.
