They are just men.Don't bother telling me the Catholic Church isn't God. It is God's voice on this Earth, with the power to bind and unbind. The Catholic Church has determined that divorced and remarried Catholics are barred from receiving the Eucharist. As a devout Catholic I must obey that decision.You are proving my point. The Church would wrongly deny you the Eucharist and you follow their bad decision.Caesar represents the temporal authority. Jesus was teaching that a Christian obeys the law and pays his taxes.In the context of the letter of the law and the spirit of the law they are Caesar if they deny you the Eucharist.I am "rendering" to the Catholic Church.If course they do. I am arguing they are wrong to do it.
Render to Caesar and all that Jazz.
I will not stay in the Church and break their rules.
It is more honorable to leave and go somewhere else where I am welcome.
The Church isn’t God.
