On Christian Marriage

An article published by The Catholic Thing discusses the dignity and sacramental nature of Christian marriage.

The text describes marriage as a foundation of domestic society and human interaction. It notes that Christ raised marriage to a sacrament under the care of the Church. According to the article, the faithfulness required in marriage demands complete unity between one man and one woman.

The piece cites Christ's teachings on the indissolubility of the marriage bond to emphasize that the union should not be broken. It also references St. Augustine, who stated that the sacrament provides that a husband or wife should not join another person even if they are separated.
