II. “Him Only Shall You Serve”

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

Mother Church rejoices that she has within herself many men and women
who pursue the Savior’s self-emptying more closely and show it forth more
clearly, by undertaking poverty with the freedom of the children of God, and
renouncing their own will: they submit themselves to man for the sake of God,
thus going beyond what is of precept in the matter of perfection, so as to
conform themselves more fully to the obedient Christ.²⁴
The Church can, in certain cases and for proportionate reasons, dispense from
vows and promises²⁵
The social duty of religion and the right to religious freedom
