Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction

The laws of God should apply equally to men.

All societies require authority to regulate and administer justice, and the Catholic Church was no different. Within Church hierarchy, Canonical Law was absolute. The ultimate sanction was excommunication - spiritual abandonment, something unthinkable for a true believer. Yet ecclesiastical jurisdiction didn't just concern the clergy, it extended to the laity also. The threat of excommunication was used to control everyone, ensuring that in matters such as how Christ's message was to be interpreted and applied to ordinary, everyday lives, the Church's decision was both final and legally binding.
