Pastwa, Andrzej2025-06-122025-06-122011Studia Oecumenica, 2011, T. 11, s. 151-171.1643-2762https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/32387This article throws light on problems related to the interpretation of the crucial canons which regulate marriages in which one party is a Catholic and the other a non-Catholic (matrimonia mixta - according to CIC and CCEO). The theological and canonical context of these regulations is based - among others - on the following issues: different concepts of the relationship between liturgical and canonical forms of marriage; implications of being lawfully baptized in light of the rule eo ipso sacramentunr, the meaning of canonical prohibition of duplicate ceremonies. Every pastor who wants to fulfill the spirit of these canonical regulations should take into account the teaching of the Apostolic Exhortation Familiaris Consortia (1981) repeated in Ecumenical Directory (1993): “These marriages (...) contain numerous elements that could well be made good use of and developed both for their intrinsic value and for the contribution they can make to the ecumenical movement. This is particularly true when both parties are faithful to their religious duties. Their common baptism and the dynamism of grace provide the spouses in these marriages with the basis and motivation for expressing unity in the sphere of moral and spiritual values” (Ecumenical Directory, no. 145).plCC-BY-NC-SA - Uznanie autorstwa - Użycie niekomercyjne - Na tych samych warunkachmałżeństwomałżeństwa mieszanemałżeństwa mieszane wyznaniowomałżeństwo międzywyznanioweprawoprawo kanoniczneKościółKościoły chrześcijańskieprawo kościelnekanoniczne prawo małżeńskiemotu proprioMatrimonia mixtaOmnium in mentemKodeks Kanonów Kościołów Wschodnichmarriagemixed marriagesmixed-faith marriagesinterdenominational marriagelawcanon lawChurchChristian Churchesecclesiastical lawmarital canon lawCode of Canons of the Eastern ChurchesArticle
