About this sermon
The great forerunner of His Majesty, Our Blessed Lord, said he was the friend of the Bridegroom. Christ and His Church are Bridegroom and Bride. Marriage is meant to be an image of this indissoluble union. As a true friend of the Bridegroom and His Bride, St. John laid down his life for this Sacrament. But HOW he died is significant. Beheading shows that the those who refuse to abide by the way God established marriage attempt to divide the Head (the Bridegroom) from the Body or Heart (the Bride). What is more the perpetrators demanded his head on a sort of paten in the midst of a banquet. Is this not what divorced and remarried people do by demanding to receive Holy Communion while living in sin? Do they attempt to separate the Head from His Church by refusing to live a proper married life? Do they not make Him come to them on a paten?
