Abstract
The Filipinos’ continued appreciation for the sacrament of marriage is a valid reason for celebrating 500 years of Christian evangelization. To date, the Philippines remains the only country that does not legalize divorce. Celebrating this milestone, nevertheless, cannot deny the fact that more and more Filipinos voice out their view on what they consider as an “impossible” Church teaching. The problem is exacerbated by the fact that those who argue in favor of divorce also employ Sacred Scriptures as proof of God’s sanction for their position. This paper aims to clarify the scriptural evidence for indissolubility of marriage and so re-affirm the biblical theology behind the Catholic Church’s position.
