The only things that can cause disunity in this spiritual bond is serious, grievous sin, which severs a person from Christ and the Church. St. Pius XII in his Encyclical “Mysticis Corporis” ( June 29. 1943) wrote:After pondering all this long and seriously before God We consider it part of Our pastoral duty to explain to the entire flock of Christ through this Encyclical Letter the doctrine of the Mystical Body of Christ and of the union in this Body of the faithful with the divine Redeemer; and then, from this consoling doctrine, to draw certain lessons that will make a deeper study of this mystery bear yet richer fruits of perfection and holiness. (Pius XII, “Mystici Corporis Christi,” 11)
