Episode notes
Don't Seek Rebaptism
- Avoid seeking rebaptism if you were validly baptized as a Catholic because the Church forbids it.
- Be gentle and charitable with those who are unaware or poorly formed rather than harshly judging them.
Valid Marriage Without Consummation
- A marriage can be valid even if it is ratified but not consummated under Catholic canon law.
- Such marriages are called rata sed non consummata and have different, often easier, dissolution rules.
Purpose Of The General Judgment
- Particular judgment is Christ's immediate determination of a soul's destiny at death.
- The general judgment publicly vindicates the saints and rebukes their persecutors.
