The
heresiarch Martin Luther said:
“When the Mass is destroyed, the papacy will topple.”
Take away the Mass and you take away the Church. Take
away the Pope and you take away the Mass AND the Church.
“Pope” Paul VI’s suggestion that “The smoke of Satan entered the Church”
was a flagrant misnomer. By no stretch of imagination can the Church demolish
itself. It wasn’t the Church—the indefectible Catholic Church, “the holy and immaculate spouse of Christ—without
wrinkle or blemish”, it was the bogus Novus
Ordo Missae (New Order of the Mass) promulgated by Paul VI in April 1969.
The
New Mass was a reconstruction of the entire Mass with radical changes. Most severely, was the meddling with the form
for the wine-consecration by the deletion of the words “the mystery of faith,” which
were moved outside the consecration form to serve as an introduction to an inappropriate acclamation by the
people.
The
VALID form, taken from the words of
Jesus Himself, is:
“This is My body, This is the chalice of My blood, of
the New and Eternal Testament, the Mystery of faith, which shall be shed for
you and MANY unto the forgiveness of sins.
The
INVALID form, taken by putting words into Our Lord’s mouth is:
“This is my body. This is the cup of my blood, the
blood of the new and everlasting covenant—the mystery of faith. This blood is
to be shed for you and for ALL men so that sins may be forgiven.”
There
is no evidence—either in Holy Scripture or in the Traditions handed down—that
Our Lord said this. To use that bogus
phrase is a clear FORGERY.
The
power of the form of this Sacrament (Holy Eucharist) is derived exclusively
from the fact that the words spoken by the priest are the exact words of Our Lord.
In
(De Sacram. iv) St Ambrose makes it
clear: “The consecration is accomplished by the words and expressions of the
Lord Jesus…(W)hen the time comes for perfecting the sacrament, the priest uses
no longer his words, but the WORDS OF CHRIST.” (Summa Th., III, Q.78,
Art.1)
No
one, not even a pope, can change the words that Jesus Christ decreed to be
preserved for this or any other sacrament.
“…the Church has no power over the substance of the
sacraments, that is, over those things which, with the sources of divine
revelation as witnesses, Christ the lord Himself decreed to be preserved in a
sacramental sign…” (Pope Pius XII, Sacramentum Odinis [#1], November 30,
1947)
The
Novus Ordo Mass is invalid, since it does not signify the grace it’s supposed
to effect. It’s an abomination, which misrepresents the words of Our Lord,
Jesus Christ.
Validly
ordained priests, even if heretical or schismatic, may consecrate most
sacraments validly, but such would
be illicitly consecrated. A priest
that is heretical or a schismatic sins
mortally ever time he confect the Sacrament of the Eucharist. (For purposes
of this article only the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist is discussed). Also,
everyone that knowingly approach a heretical or schismatic priest for this
sacrament, receives it illicitly and sins mortally every time they
receive this sacrament (unless excused by ignorance).
The Catholic
Encyclopedia, Vol.13;
“Sacraments” (1912):
The care of all those rites has been given to the
Church of Christ. Heretical or schismatic ministers can administer the
sacraments validly if they have valid Orders, but their ministrations are
sinful (see Billot, op.
cit., thesis 16). Good faith would excuse
the recipients from sin [provided they had no prior knowledge that the
priest was a heretic that they approached or that it was wrong to approach
him].”
So
if your position is the true Catholic position: namely, that one shouldn’t approach
a heretic for the Eucharist or other sacraments, then, it’s imperative to also
hold the position that one cannot approach any heretical priest for the
sacraments that are known to be heretical. One cannot pick and choose what
heretics to go to. ALL heretics are
outside the Church. Therefore, ALL must
be avoided.
Pope
Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (#9), June 29,
1896.
“…he who dissents even in one point from divinely
revealed truth absolutely rejects ALL faith.”
Pray
the Rosary, wear the Brown Scapular, and pray for the conversion of heretical
priests.
