When did people start getting married in churches?

Roman Catholic AnswerThe Church doesn't marry people, the husband and wife marry each other. The Church just stands as witness, and through the priest or deacon extends Her blessing on the couple:

from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 1994

1623 According to the Latin tradition, the spouses as ministers of Christ's grace mutually confer upon each other the sacrament of Matrimony by expressing their consent before the Church. In the traditions of the Eastern Churches, the priests (bishops or presbyters) are witnesses to the mutual consent given by the spouses, (Cf. Corpus Canonum Ecclesiarum Orientalium, can. 817 but for the validity of the sacrament their blessing is also necessary. (cf. CCEO, can 828.)

This is, however, one of the sacraments established by Jesus Christ, so, of course, the Church has been extending this from the very beginning.

What do you do if you marry on the rebound and 3 years later find that your previous husband the love of your life wants you back?

  • You have made it clear you married on the rebound and people make mistakes. I would sit down with your husband and tell him you don't love him, but be smart and don't go back to your ex. You sound like you have no confidence in yourself, so take this time out and build a stronger you before you get into another relationship.
  • You should do what you think is going to be the right decision for you. But you also have to be sure that your ex husband is really ready to work things out for good because another split with him won't be worth the hurt and stress.
  • If you are truly unhappy in your rebound marriage, you should end it, but take some time for yourself. It's ok to "date" your ex-husband, but you need to be really sure about what and who you want to spend your life with. You also need to really re-assess your ex-husband, and the reasons the marriage ended in the first place. As for your rebound marriage, do not make if more painful for your spouse by being ugly or emotionally cruel. This person gave you what you thought you needed at a time when you were emotionally vulnerable. Be as kind to him as possible, and avoid telling him about the ex. As for the ex, you should really take it slow with him and listen to your bells (instincts).
  • How do you know he doesn't sort of want to see if he can just get you from the other guy for his own insecure reasons?

There is good news. The Department of Homeland Security-Immigration and Customs Enforcement has created Immigration Benifit Fraud Task Forces.

The reporting party needs to provide the following information: -Name of alien and U.S citizen invovled. -Last known address' of both. -When the marriage took place and when an application was submitted for the green card. -The A number for the alien. -Social security numbers for both the USC and alien. -the more info provided, the better the chance the case will be asigned. And lastly, it is important to state why you are reporting this. This is important so that investigators can determine the legitimacy of the tip.

How do you act like there is nothing wrong happy and cheerful when your husband and you are separated?

Why do you want to act, your feelings are your own and you are entitled to show them. If the only reason you want to put on a happy face is to show your husband that you are happy without him then you are faking it. Dont know why your seperated, but if he has moved on then so should you, if not then the two of you need to be working on the relationship together with counseling and get throught your issues, to get back together. Sounds like one issue you have is sharing, you have to let him know how he makes you feel so he can readjust.

Why do husband turn things around to make it look its your fault?

Because they can. Whatever you allow a low life loser to get away with, he will do it, and more. Don't accept the blame for anothers lies, cheats, betrayals and secrets. Gently point out to the jerk that you were not there when he cheated, you did not invite his infidelity, you did not encourage it and you will not tolerate it now. You cannot control another. And you especially cannot control a creep. So if he lies and tries to tell you or another that its your fault, take a step back, turn around and walk away. Don't waste another minute on this loser.

What in the Church represents the sacrament of marriage?

In Christianity, we see that marriage is different from other human relationships. There is something sacred about it; That it is possible for a couple to love each other in this way is a gift from God. In their acceptance of this gift, a couple not only experience a communion with each other, they experience a sustaining love which is bigger than their own individual efforts. They are drawn into a communion with God who assists and empowers them in their efforts to strengthen and deepen their married life.

Sacramentally and (canonically), the following is ascertained:

(1) the spouses are free to marry

(2) they freely exchange their consent

(3) in consenting to marry, they have the intention to marry for life, to be faithful to one another and be open to children

(4) their consent is given in the presence of two witnesses and before a properly authorized Church minister.

Standing before God they proffer their vows; in sickness and in health, for better or for worse, for the rest of our lives, until death do us part. Amen

They have dreams of their future and plans for how they will live out their lives, growing old together. But they receive no guarantee of what may be around the corner, or exactly what 'for better or worse' may mean as the weeks and months melt into years and decades. Yet they celebrate their 'yes' with joyful hearts.

It's the conviction that the one thing that makes our lives real and worth living is that pure committed love never counts the cost. Real love says 'we'll take the risk and pay the price, whatever it may be, because we want a real life and not just a performance or show.'

Marriages for Christians haven't always taken place in churches. The couple used to make their marriage vows in the church porch, with family and friends gathered around to witness. The priest was there to register their commitment and then lead the party into church to pray with them.

In the eighteenth century the whole ceremony moved into the church and some clergy worried that it would look as though the priest was marrying the couple, where, in fact, the couple themselves are the ministers of their marriage.

They give themselves to each other lovingly and for life. The role of the priest is to witness, register, pray with and bless them. And it's a great privilege and honour to be part of their life history.

In St Paul 's letter to the Christian community at Ephesus, he urges husbands and wives (in terms appropriate to his day), to mutually surrender to one another in love. He then continues:

Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother to be united with his wife, and the two shall become one flesh. This is a very great mystery, and I refer to Christ and the Church. (Ephesians 5.31-32)

So, when a couple marries, they are not simply saying 'yes' to each other. They are saying 'yes' to the Christian community:

'Yes, we commit ourselves to being a sign of Christ's love to you'.

'Yes, we will strive to love one another so totally and unconditionally that you will see in us the love Jesus has for you.'

'Yes, we will love each other forever, because that is the way Christ has promised to love his Church and, by the witness of our lives, we will make his extraordinary promise believable.'

What does it mean when your left wedding finger itches and you're already married?

It means that you have an itch on your left ring finger. If you think it has anything to do with the fact that you are married, then chances are your wedding ring needs a good clean or you are developing an allergic reaction to gold. This is not uncommon since the body contains actual particles of gold and when close to a larger body of gold can cause any number of chemical reactions. You may be using a dish-washing detergent that is not being cleaned properly from under your ring, and if you remove your ring while washing the dishes, maybe it's the detergent reacting with your skin.

You probably hoped that you would get a response something like "you married the wrong man" or "the right man is near", but I can only offer factual information, viable scientific possibilities and occasionally opinions. If you feel that these latter reasons have something to do with your relationship, then the question is with you, how do YOU feel about it? What do YOU want to do?

Should you leave your marriage if there is no love?

Personally, I am old-fashioned. I feel that if there are small children involved, the couple should stay together. I've seen too many kids grow up to have all kinds of emotional and socialogical problems because of coming from a broken home. If you can manage to co-habitate and ut up a front then stay until the kids are old enough to understand what the situation is. If you have children and both love them unconditionally, then you will find a way to make it work.

Your wife wants a divorce after 20yrs of marriage she says she fell out of love what do you do or at least try?

You can suggest marriage counseling to try to find out why she "fell out of love" and to see if reconciliation is possible. If she does not comply, you can't force her to attend. Although, at this point you may benefit from individual counseling after a significant life event like this. I wish you well.

What can you do if your spouse isn't remorseful after his affair?

Realize by calling it an affair theres already a negative marital, religious, and social connotation involved. It's always in your best interest to have a spouse with at least similar views, especially about sexuality. With that being said it sounds as though you may be more attached to him emotionally than he is you. My advice; Find some one else.

How to pay your husband back for cheating on you?

Retaliation isn't the smartest thing to do. But I guess you could make him feel bad somehow? By telling everyone so he feels like a douche or something.

You don't. You should leave.

I wonder if this a real question or just a hypothetical question. I will assume it is real.

Pay back may not be the right approach. You have to decide If you want to stay with him or leave him. Do you want him or do you want out. If you are sure that you do not want to stay with him, get a good divorce lawyer so you will get a good property settlement.

What to say to husband who is the bread winner and does nothing in your home?

Needs more to the question. Does she work outside the house? In general, it seems only fair to me that if someone is the sole bread winner, he should come home to a clean house and hot meals. My husband doesn't have to work inside the house. I've been an attorney for 25 years; can certainly make a living. But as long as I DO NOT HAVE to work outside the house, hubby will be pampered.
