Catholic Church Believes In Separation From Bed, Not Divorce - Father Oluoma by EBMedia: 2:08am On Apr 14, 2022

Catholic priest, Reverend Father Chinenye Oluoma, has advised women against enduring abusive marriages, IGBERETV reports.

He made this statement following the death of gospel artiste, Osinachi Nwachukwu who was said to have suffered from domestic violence from her husband, leading to her death.

Speaking to his congregation recently, Fr Oluoma said although the Catholic church doesn't believe in divorce, it believes in separation from bed and board and also nullification of a marriage.

In his words;

''If your husband is beating you, he will kill you one day. He will kill you one day. Police may arrest him, after a while they leave him. He may even leave long and remarry and if he remarries, another wicked woman, the children you suffered for, will be maltreating the children. Runaway. There is nothing pious, nothing spiritual about staying in a marrriage and you are dying gradually.

If he doesn't kill you instantly, he will damage your vital organs and you will die at the age of 60 or fifty something. They will think it is sickness that killed you. Run away I have told you.

This is the Catholic church. We don't believe in divorce but there is something called separation from bed and board and there is something called nullification."

Any church that promotes divorce has their agenda because that's not the will of God. God doesn't support divorce; no church should. Separation is not divorce. The former doesn't lead to the latter automatically. People separate, miss each other and still make up after sorting out their issues. Let's not forget that.

The catholic church is one of the most confused cult in the world.

We all could remember 1996 when there was a referendum in the Irish republic, If the state's constitution should prohibit divorce or not? They did so for 2 primary reasons.

1) It was no longer thought right that the Roman Catholic Church should legislate its morality for all citizens.

2)It was obviously impossible even to hope for eventual Irish reuni- fication if the large Protestant minority in the North was continually repelled by the possibility of clerical rule.

Mother Teresa flew all the way from Calcutta to help campaign, along with the church and its hard-liners, for a “no” vote. In other words, an Irish woman married to a wife-beating and incestuous drunk should never expect anything better, and might endanger her soul if she begged for a fresh start, while as for the Protestants, they could either choose the blessings of Rome or stay out altogether.

The referendum eventu- ally amended the constitution, though by the narrowest of majori- ties. (Mother Teresa in the same year gave an interview saying that she hoped her friend Princess Diana would be happier after she had escaped from what was an obviously miserable marriage, but it’s less of a surprise to find the church applying sterner laws to the poor, or offering indulgences to the rich.)

Nullify: make legally null and void; invalidate.
Divorce the legal dissolution of a marriage by a court or other competent body.

Nullify, don't divorce ... what's the difference?
They are one and the same, dear Catholic brethrens!

Separation is okay for a while, but if their hearts don't grow fonder for each other, better to just make your marriage legally null and void or legally dissolve the marriage

The same God that told a muslim to marry ten wives told a Christian not to marry more than one in a lifetime. He then told a Muslim that taking alcohol is a sin and told a Christian that alcohol is Godly.
Religion is just an opium of the masses. Common sense should decide in most situations.

Any grammar you want to use, whether separation, divorce or nullification, you can go ahead and use. The key is, if your home is no longer safe for you, run! And that goes for both women and men. Because there are lots of men also going through severe emotional and physical abuse in their marriages also.

Has the CHURCH ever stopped anyone from divorcing? The CHURCH is not holding anyone.
You own your Life, so take ur decisions boldly.

You were human before becoming a member of a church. Nigerian Christians are increasingly becoming stupid through a Religion Teleported & brought down to you by your fellow humans.
CHURCH doesn't own any single Life.

In Fact, All the Lands inhabited by Churches in the villages were given to them by the community.
The communities were there before the churches arrived, but the churches have now become too powerful, ordering activities of several communities, telling them who deserves a befitting burial or not.
We should be ashamed of ourselves.
Churches now tell communities when they will use same open fields given to dem by same villages. Are we normal at all?
Dia's something wrong with the BLACK RACE!

Pastor speak to yourselves how you will remove that stupid Curt part from wedding arrangement you adopted in Christianity not your followers. Free poeple out from Argonise of bondages in the name of Curt wedding you all add it as if it is among Christ Doctrines .Poeples are dying in silence .let them have option of easy separations. To marry is not by force and to stay with wrong person after married is not by force . Curt wedding is not Christ but wester culture. You said they should run but you tied their hands in the name of Curt wedding.

Let me help you.


Nullify: make legally null and void; invalidate. Yes, here it only applies to a marriage contracted through lies, deceit and false pretences. It also includes a union between unknown siblings (whenever it becomes known) and other marriage that goes contrary to the law.

Divorce the legal dissolution of a marriage by a court or other competent body. Yes here is a binding relationship for legally acceptable marriages that are bound by a covenant, for better and for worse.

Wrong interpretation

"God hates divorce" does not means he doesn't ALLOW it. Divorce was part of the law

Mt 19:8
He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not so.

Divorce means there was a marriage previously but going forward that marriage does not exist between this couple anymore.

Nullification is more like it never happened. The grounds for nullification if marriage does not include domestic violence. There are grounds for nullification of marriage in the church if either one of the spouses can show proof that the other claimed what he/she is not.
Example is if a man cannot perform, because of how fundamental sex is to marriage and attendant consequences to a man's inability to perform, the church would nullify that marriage.
Hence the saying that the church does not encourage divorce but can nullify.

But to get your marriage nullified is not easy o so nobody should think it's like a walk in the park.

If there are differences between couples that are not reconciliable, then separation is advised but you still remain a couple.You can't marry other people as you are still married to each other alongside other conditions.
