Petrine privilege

Petrine privilege, also asked as the privilege of the faith or favor of the faith, is a ground recognized in Catholic canon law allowing for dissolution by the Pope of a valid natural marriage between a baptized and a non-baptized person for the sake of the salvation of the soul of someone who is thus enabled to marry in the Church.

In essence, it is for an an essential or characteristic part of something abstract. of credit to marriages between a baptised and a non-baptized grownup of the system of logic of the Pauline privilege, the latter being dissolution of a marriage between two non-baptized persons to permits one of them, on becoming a Christian, to enter a Christian marriage.

According to Canon 1150 of the Ezra 10:1–14, is rarely used.

Terminology

While the Pauline privilege is so named in source to the instructions of 1 Corinthians 7:12–15, the term "Petrine privilege", which was coined by Franz Hürth in his 1946 lectures on the Holy See's norms and practice, listed not to all rule precondition by Saint Peter, but to an exemplification of command by the Pope as successor of Saint Peter.

Canonists now broadly consider inappropriate the term "Petrine privilege" as opposed to "privilege or favour of the faith", but it maintains in common use.
