    Has the Neo-SSPX Lost Its Supplied Jurisdiction?

    Quote from: Frances
    the SSPX chapel in NY sermon was about sacrament of confession


    Just Curious--

        As the priest was giving a sermon on the sacrament of Confession, did he explain to the faithful that SSPX priests have no
    faculties to hear confessions
    of the faithful, and are unable to provide
    absolution
    to the faithful, any longer?

        When the SSPX saw the crisis in the Catholic Church as an emergency, church law provided the necessary faculties (Supplied Jurisdiction) for the priests. However, with the SSPX now  officially accepting the entire Vatican Council, now accepting all the teachings of the Vatican II popes, and accepting all the new sacraments, there is, for the Neo-SSPX, no longer an emergency.


    This reminds me of an interview I recently heard recorded with John Vennari
    and a few others.  The interviewer asked an open question abut SUPPLIED
    JURISDICTION and not one of the 4 being interviewed, INCLUDING John
    Vennari, had a WORD to say.  They were all mute as a bedpost.  So the
    interviewer had to move on to the next topic!  So much for that!

    Quote
       Now, they must submit themselves to the disciplinary decisions of the magisterium, and obey the directives of the Congregation for the Faith. Arbp. Mueller says the SSPX bishops should submit themselves to a monastery to do reparation; he stated they "have no function in the Church."


    Quote
       Interestingly, the rector of the SSPX's U.S. seminary in Winona even stated last June, just after Bp. Fellay swore his allegiance to Benedict and promised his acceptance of the Vatican II docuмents, that "the SSPX priests get their mission from the local (Novus Ordo) bishops!"

    While real traditionalists don't buy Fellay's pandering to Rome, his oaths of submission to Rome preclude a state of  emergency, and, therefore, eliminate the ability of SSPX priests to assume the Church's authorization for their use of the priestly office without mandate.

  • Would it be so simple to say that all the priests in +Fellay's SSPX have lost their supplied jurisdiction, due to their leader's folly?  Or would it depends on the individual priest who, while still a member of the same SSPX, may not agree with the new stance?

    Real questions, not rhetorical.  In advance - I don't want anyone to think I'm playing "hide the ball" - I'm inclined to think it depends on the individual priest.  But if there is sufficient reason to believe the contrary... that makes for an awful situation for the Faithful who attend such chapels.

  • I think we should just ask point blank, are you in favor of being regularized with Rome? Ask that from Fr. Theiman, Beck, Pfluger,  Bp. Fellay , and your local priest.

    Also something that ties in from another thread:

    Is Pope Francis an Enemy of the Faith


    If he is a modernist, then he is an enemy of the faith, and the most dangerous of all the enemies in the history of the Church, for modernism is the cesspool of all heresies, the slyest mix of all the heresies ever.

    It is that simple, were and are Pope Paul VI, JPII, B-16, and now Francis, modernists? Anyone that says not, is blind.

    Remember, that rat poison is 99% nutritious grain, and it is only the 1% that kills you. The modernist will teach orthodoxy out of one side and soul killing heresy out of the other.


    If they say that B16 & Francis, and the Novus Ordo church are modernist, then how could the Neo-SSPX lead us to eat their soul killing food?

    Simple questions, that they can't answer.

  • The Society continues to operate under the partial-communion label. This suits Rome because it keeps criticism of V2 at bay and some tribute is better than none. It suits the Society because of its intense dislike of diocesan bishops at the same time as keeping on board those still sentimental about Rome. A forty year formula that manages to survive providing both sides of the equation are regularly serviced. So, keep on talking but never agree on anything important.

    This my best analysis to date. So what of the Resistance? I live in hope that it can drop the partial-communion formula and concentrate on building an independent position, better suited to countering the developing conciliar revolution.

    Well said...and this is a crucial issue!

    Do you remember also Fr. Rostand's Post Falls conference when this question of Supplied Jurisdiction came up...and what his response to it was?

    It is "prudent" not a "principle" to be "regularized" by conciliar Rome...

    Here is the previous thread on this that adds to this important topic.

    http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php/SUPPLIED-JURISTICTION-PRUDENCE-OR-PRINCIPLE

    Quote
    In these recordings of Fr. Rostand’s Post falls conference, there is a lot of revealing things to write about. However, there is a crucial question that was being asked here about being obliged to following the highest Law in the church –the state of emergency and the Supplied Jurisdiction (at 52:05), and followed up on by another person (at 58:50). YouTube link - SSPX District Superior "Deal with Rome is Prudent" Pt 2:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVn_y10bCo4&feature=youtu.be

    This is a serious question that I think should be brought out to light some more.  This question on the state of emergency, and the fulfillment of the Church Law of Supplied Jurisdiction is really the main argument, the central argument, of the whole SSPX-ROME “practical agreement” issue.  It is the major difference between us (the old SSPX) and FSSP, Campos, and the others.  That is, we are safe from this conciliar apostasy by being safeguarded by the Cannon Law- supplied jurisdiction and they are not!

    As much as Fr. Rostand did not answer the question, and those two people were laboring to stay on track, Fr. Rostand instead kept re-directing it into something else –prudence.

    Listen to the exchange again at those marks.  It is very telling…an insight that is really a 180 degree different position of wanting to go into a conciliar Rome accord, coming from the U.S. District superior himself, than what used to be held in the “old” SSPX.

    For those who do not understand this crucial problem and crises of the SSPX (past and present), about the state of emergency- supplied jurisdiction, there are many articles written of this that you can do a search.  (If anyone has a good link please drop it in.  But let’s stay on this subject; it is important)

    In brief, the state of emergency for a Catholic must be an objective hindrance, obstacle, eclipse, etc.  of the normal means to receive the grace and sacraments from the Church.  From this state of emergency there becomes a “state of need”- the church in her wisdom –God’s will- supplies for this need in Her Cannon Law.  In fact, it is the highest of all Church Law, for the salvation of souls, the Church gives a “supplied Jurisdiction” to overcome this obstacle to the priests, bishops, and the faithful for this emergency to allow you, or a priest, bishop etc., to receive and give the sacraments based on that need.  This is what has been taught (mind you I wrote in brief) from the Society’s pulpits and conferences for years, especially since the 1988 consecrations of the 4-bishops.

    So let’s continue what this Cannon Law really means to every baptized soul and priest in this real state of emergency that exists since the errors and consequences of Vatican II, and why it is a matter of principle and not of prudence that Fr. Rostand wishes us to believe.

    In a normal situation, the fact that anyone received the sacraments from a SSPX priest today, or yesterday, or tomorrow, including the SSPX priests and bishops administering them, is in open and direct “disobedience” to the local bishop in his jurisdiction of dioceses, and in open and direct “disobedience” to the Pope.  Period!  Ah…but a response immediately follows -it is not a normal situation, a state of emergency and supplied jurisdiction (…) -you are absolutely correct!  So then in following the higher Law of the Church, the Law of God, in this “apparent disobedience” it is done out of principle first, it is objective, for the greater good , then it is prudent to decide to follow it –correct!  First the Wisdom of Principle, then the act of prudence.  Not the other way around!

    So what does that mean in this present “practical-agreement” SSPX -crises?  Everything!

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (7:04) acknowledged and agreed that Rome is still apostate =state of emergency.  -Correct.

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (36:35)acknowledged and agreed that the state of emergency and state of necessity is objective and still remains even if the SSPX signs a practical agreement.  -Correct.

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (37:00) said that this practical agreement has nothing to do with a Canonical matter (which contradicts Fr. Pfluger’s interpretation in his “We are back to square one” interview -Dici Oct. 16, 2012).

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (52:05) in answering the question, about if the universal supplied jurisdiction of the Church Law would be hindered, from now needing permission from a conciliar bishop to open a chapel in his diocese (in one of the 6-conditions), Fr. Rostand actually affirmed, after stuttering,: “That yes it would definitely affect our growth”.  What is “growth” Fr. Rostand, if it isn’t souls coming in state of need to receive the sacraments?  And you play with this divine commission and obligation to then say: “And it would be for us a question once again of prudence…”.  No Fr. Rostand, it is not a matter of what you will decide to do with the objective Cannon Law, are you going to obey it as Archbishop Lefebvre had?  It is a matter of principle to follow the Law of the Church-especially for the salvation of souls!  If it would definitely affect the growth of souls as you said it would, is that “prudent” in your stewardship to play with these loss of souls?

    So, what is the “practical agreement” for if there is still a state of emergency?

    The SSPX leader’s stated premise to sign a practical agreement is in the General Chapters 6-conditions (Read them.  They are eye opening.), which are very superficial and pragmatic to the real crises we are undergoing of the Faith; and at (30:36) Fr. Rostand’s back peddling wishes us to believe that the agreement is to be what the SSPX always does… and speak out… like modernist Rome will take them in with loving ecuмenical arms and will not “touch” them –such was the fantasy of the other groups who said the same thing (…).

    So now the problem.  With the above being true, that when the SSPX signs a “practical/legal” agreement with conciliar Rome, the SSPX “loses for itself”, and all of the faithful under them, the protection of the Cannon Law of “universal” supplied jurisdiction -Regardless of the set-up of agreement.  So, when the SSPX signs a “practical agreement” with conciliar Rome, you cannot say that the SSPX has “supplied jurisdiction” anymore when in fact, it doesn’t?  By a stroke of a pen, the SSPX is now legally absorbed in the conciliar structure.  Like Campos and the others that have been effectively shut down and compromised = modernist’s win.  That’s what conciliar Rome really wants!  Go play chess.  Sometimes for a strategy, you can give something up –so then you can come back to “check-mate” your opponent.

    Question?  Has anyone ever heard from those groups using the platform of “supplied jurisdiction” anymore?  No!  Because by signing a practical agreement they willfully went into the (new)conciliar structure and implicitly/explicitly gave consent to a “legal normalcy” for themselves under a false premise and left behind the highest law of the church –the salvation of souls!  The NSSPX will no longer be able to go “outside” of their “new legal jurisdiction”.

    Here is the depth of this.  This Cannon Law of State of Necessity-supplied jurisdiction is there to protect you from anyone looking to destroy the faith of our fathers, knowingly or unknowingly, locally or wholesale.  Therefore, every baptized Catholic, including priests, and bishops, all over the world, are commissioned and obliged under obedience to God to follow this Good Law to protect yourselves from harms way.  Further, a baptized Catholic, including priests, and bishops, have no right to hinder themselves, or another person from attaining this protection to receive the sacraments and graces the Church wishes to give.

    Therefore, whatever practical or pragmatic “deal” with bells and whistles one wants to make with those who endanger the faith –regardless of personages: A). You have no right before God to put yourself in harm’s way.  B). You have no right before God to put others in harm’s way.  C). You have no right to put the True religion of God into another religion (conciliar/novus ordo religion).  D). When you sign you lose the protection of the Cannon Law.  E). No faithful can follow you into that danger.  F). You now no longer can help souls in the “freedom” of that protection without asking “permission” to the conciliar mechanism (…).  And so on…

    Do you get the danger of this new SSPX-crisis yet?  This is not about a pretty badge of prelature, or a pride of recognition, or even fixing an “irregularity” –THIS IS ABOUT THE FAITH.  PLAIN AND SIMPLE!

    If you do follow the NSSPX into the danger of the conciliar mechanisms of the conciliar Rome -then you are in real schism to the true faith.  Bluntly said!

    So once the NSSPX signs the accord, it cannot “disobey” the orders to relocate hear, go there, shut down there, and all of the rest of the modernist tactics (…).

    So where can the faithful go so as not to be infected by this conciliar/ecuмenical religion?

    This is another entry- into another Catacomb.  Have faith.  God will provide!

  • How can the SSPX claim "Supplied Jurisdiction" when their theologian Fr Francois Laisney claims that Canonical Recognition from (Modernist) Rome is absolutely vital? It doesn't make sense.

    The General Chapter that elects the SG of the SSPX is made up of Fellay appointees. He should be man enough now to conduct a plebiscite among all the SSPX priests to see if they want him as their SG.(The mode of electing the SG should also be changed away from this cronyist system).  Can those who support him honestly claim "Supplied Jurisdiction" and a valid priestly ministry? And if the majority do not support him, then he and his cronies should step down - and these new doubts can be laid to rest.

    (...)


    In the context of your statement, you are right.

    Firstly, one can ONLY claim the use of Supplied Jurisdiction if you are already "IN" the Catholic Church; not outside of it!

    So, for the N-SSPX to chime and banter about the "need" to be "regularized" INTO the (conciliar) Church when they are already IN the Catholic Church, as Archbishop Lefebvre had shown them many times, is to loose ones way and identity.

    However, there would be a "need" to be "regularized" in the apostolate throughout the world with a "mandate" which the SSPX does not "officially" have, because of the crisis of the Faith, that is what the Canon Law of the Church, Supplied Jurisdiction, "officially" gives to them -an apostolate to do what the Church needs them to do- Go out and preach the True Faith...feed the sheep with the true Sacraments...

    So, what the N-SSPX is trying to do now is, to cloud the use of term "regularized" to make the subject ambiguous in order to approach conciliar-mondernist Rome as the practical "key" to get what they (N-SSPX) want -an "emotional huggy-huggy' acceptance from CONCILIAR Rome- not from Eternal Rome!

    The N-SSPX minds are in a dire need of a reality check...and to wake up from the "tempter of apostation" for which the devil is using to tempt them, and others, as the devil had done, and still does, through Vat. II under the guise of (false) obedience from the weakness of the soul's inordinate attachment for the "need" to be "regularized" in this crisis.  Archbishop Lefebvre says NO; the Church supplies; when conciliar Rome converts back to her identity of Tradition, all of these problems will go away.

    As Fr. Chazal has also said to Fr. Laisney in his response to him: "You don't like it, but Canonic legality follows the Faith; not the other way around."

  • In case of grave spiritual necessity (individual or public/general), jurisdiction springs from the request of the faithful, not the theological positions of the priest dispensing the sacraments.

    Therefore, the issue of whether one (or more) priests of the SSPX favor a practical agreement with Rome, or whether or not they believe a state of necessity still exists, is irrelevent to the issue of valid sacraments based on supplied jurisdiction.
    Rom 5: 20 - "But where sin increased, grace abounded all the more."

    It should be obvious by now to anyone who has read his writings that Father Laisney is a Bp. Fellay sycophant. He really doesn't know what he is talking about.

    I would at least agree with "Mueller the heretic", that Bishop Fellay should retire to a monastery.

  • It is very hypocritical from the part of NSSPX to desire, go and sign a practical deal (implying, therefore, the state of necessity is gone) while at the same time claim a supplied jurisdiction to continue to hear confessions, have their marriages, etc.

    But I guess the state of necessity exists despite the hypocrisy of Judas and his followers. IMO it's still a very good point to make against the accordistas though.

    Fr. Pfeiffer has ccommented on this subject of supplied jurisdiction back in December 2012:

    While real traditionalists don't buy Fellay's pandering to Rome, his oaths of submission to Rome preclude a state of  emergency, and, therefore, eliminate the ability of SSPX priests to assume the Church's authorization for their use of the priestly office without mandate.

    For those who do not understand this crucial problem and crises of the SSPX (past and present), about the state of emergency- supplied jurisdiction, there are many articles written of this that you can do a search.  (If anyone has a good link please drop it in.  But let’s stay on this subject; it is important)

    In brief, the state of emergency for a Catholic must be an objective hindrance, obstacle, eclipse, etc.  of the normal means to receive the grace and sacraments from the Church.  From this state of emergency there becomes a “state of need”- the church in her wisdom –God’s will- supplies for this need in Her Cannon Law.  In fact, it is the highest of all Church Law, for the salvation of souls, the Church gives a “supplied Jurisdiction” to overcome this obstacle to the priests, bishops, and the faithful for this emergency to allow you, or a priest, bishop etc., to receive and give the sacraments based on that need.  This is what has been taught (mind you I wrote in brief) from the Society’s pulpits and conferences for years, especially since the 1988 consecrations of the 4-bishops.

    So let’s continue what this Cannon Law really means to every baptized soul and priest in this real state of emergency that exists since the errors and consequences of Vatican II, and why it is a matter of principle and not of prudence that Fr. Rostand wishes us to believe.

    In a normal situation, the fact that anyone received the sacraments from a SSPX priest today, or yesterday, or tomorrow, including the SSPX priests and bishops administering them, is in open and direct “disobedience” to the local bishop in his jurisdiction of dioceses, and in open and direct “disobedience” to the Pope.  Period!  Ah…but a response immediately follows -it is not a normal situation, a state of emergency and supplied jurisdiction (…) -you are absolutely correct!  So then in following the higher Law of the Church, the Law of God, in this “apparent disobedience” it is done out of principle first, it is objective, for the greater good , then it is prudent to decide to follow it –correct!  First the Wisdom of Principle, then the act of prudence.  Not the other way around!

    So what does that mean in this present “practical-agreement” SSPX -crises?  Everything!

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (7:04) acknowledged and agreed that Rome is still apostate =state of emergency.  -Correct.

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (36:35)acknowledged and agreed that the state of emergency and state of necessity is objective and still remains even if the SSPX signs a practical agreement.  -Correct.

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (37:00) said that this practical agreement has nothing to do with a Canonical matter (which contradicts Fr. Pfluger’s interpretation in his “We are back to square one” interview -Dici Oct. 16, 2012).

    Fr. Rostand in this audio recording (52:05) in answering the question, about if the universal supplied jurisdiction of the Church Law would be hindered, from now needing permission from a conciliar bishop to open a chapel in his diocese (in one of the 6-conditions), Fr. Rostand actually affirmed, after stuttering,: “That yes it would definitely affect our growth”.  What is “growth” Fr. Rostand, if it isn’t souls coming in state of need to receive the sacraments?  And you play with this divine commission and obligation to then say: “And it would be for us a question once again of prudence…”.  No Fr. Rostand, it is not a matter of what you will decide to do with the objective Cannon Law, are you going to obey it as Archbishop Lefebvre had?  It is a matter of principle to follow the Law of the Church-especially for the salvation of souls!  If it would definitely affect the growth of souls as you said it would, is that “prudent” in your stewardship to play with these loss of souls?

    So, what is the “practical agreement” for if there is still a state of emergency?

    The SSPX leader’s stated premise to sign a practical agreement is in the General Chapters 6-conditions (Read them.  They are eye opening.), which are very superficial and pragmatic to the real crises we are undergoing of the Faith; and at (30:36) Fr. Rostand’s back peddling wishes us to believe that the agreement is to be what the SSPX always does… and speak out… like modernist Rome will take them in with loving ecuмenical arms and will not “touch” them –such was the fantasy of the other groups who said the same thing (…).

    So now the problem.  With the above being true, that when the SSPX signs a “practical/legal” agreement with conciliar Rome, the SSPX “loses for itself”, and all of the faithful under them, the protection of the Cannon Law of “universal” supplied jurisdiction -Regardless of the set-up of agreement.  So, when the SSPX signs a “practical agreement” with conciliar Rome, you cannot say that the SSPX has “supplied jurisdiction” anymore when in fact, it doesn’t?  By a stroke of a pen, the SSPX is now legally absorbed in the conciliar structure.  Like Campos and the others that have been effectively shut down and compromised = modernist’s win.  That’s what conciliar Rome really wants!  Go play chess.  Sometimes for a strategy, you can give something up –so then you can come back to “check-mate” your opponent.

    Question?  Has anyone ever heard from those groups using the platform of “supplied jurisdiction” anymore?  No!  Because by signing a practical agreement they willfully went into the (new)conciliar structure and implicitly/explicitly gave consent to a “legal normalcy” for themselves under a false premise and left behind the highest law of the church –the salvation of souls!  The NSSPX will no longer be able to go “outside” of their “new legal jurisdiction”.

    Here is the depth of this.  This Cannon Law of State of Necessity-supplied jurisdiction is there to protect you from anyone looking to destroy the faith of our fathers, knowingly or unknowingly, locally or wholesale.  Therefore, every baptized Catholic, including priests, and bishops, all over the world, are commissioned and obliged under obedience to God to follow this Good Law to protect yourselves from harms way.  Further, a baptized Catholic, including priests, and bishops, have no right to hinder themselves, or another person from attaining this protection to receive the sacraments and graces the Church wishes to give.

    Therefore, whatever practical or pragmatic “deal” with bells and whistles one wants to make with those who endanger the faith –regardless of personages: A). You have no right before God to put yourself in harm’s way.  B). You have no right before God to put others in harm’s way.  C). You have no right to put the True religion of God into another religion (conciliar/novus ordo religion).  D). When you sign you lose the protection of the Cannon Law.  E). No faithful can follow you into that danger.  F). You now no longer can help souls in the “freedom” of that protection without asking “permission” to the conciliar mechanism (…).  And so on…

    Do you get the danger of this new SSPX-crisis yet?  This is not about a pretty badge of prelature, or a pride of recognition, or even fixing an “irregularity” –THIS IS ABOUT THE FAITH.  PLAIN AND SIMPLE!

    If you do follow the NSSPX into the danger of the conciliar mechanisms of the conciliar Rome -then you are in real schism to the true faith.  Bluntly said!

    So once the NSSPX signs the accord, it cannot “disobey” the orders to relocate hear, go there, shut down there, and all of the rest of the modernist tactics (…).

    So where can the faithful go so as not to be infected by this conciliar/ecuмenical religion?

    This is another entry- into another Catacomb.  Have faith.  God will provide!

        Lest there be any confusion or misunderstanding amongst readers,
    allow me to add a comment.
         We have been well instructed by learned SSPX priests of old that, if a Catholic
    needed the sacrament of penance, went into a Cstholic Church or monastery and saw a man
    In priestly garb, approached the priest and earnestly requested the Sacrament of Penance,
    the Church does NOT require him to explain that " I'm just visiting my family-- I'm from another Diocese--I have no faculty to hear your Confession."
        Instead, the Church allows him to hear the confession, give absolution, and set the penitent free. Now, once the priest is in the confessional, and other faithful line up for
    confession, that priest still receives supplied jurisdiction to give the sacrament.
         Because of the "state of emergency" in the Church as declared by Abp Lefebvre, this has been  our (SSPX) justification for hearing confessions, because the faculty to hear confession comes from the Church, through the Ordinary (Bishop) of each diocese.
          With respect to Episcopal Consecrations, and , in fact, all ordinations, when the Abp. instructed his four "Bishops-to-Be" as to his justification to consecrate them without a mandate, and their own responsibilities in accepting their consecration, he very clearly told them:

          The justification for consecrating them as Bishops without the Papal mandate  was the "State of Emergency" in the Church, and the need to preserve the priesthood ( this, also, is the authority for training and ordaining priests without the approval of Rome).He then told them quite explicitly that, when this state of emergency is over, and Rome has regained the faith, 'you (new
    Bishops), are to present yourselves to the Holy Father and place your consecration and your ministry in His hands'.

         It seems that Bp. Fellay has, therefore, painted himself into the proverbial corner. He has stated all over the world, that this Rome is different; that we don't need a doctrinal agreement; that we (he and the Chapter members) accept Collegiality, Religious Liberty, the Bastard Mass, Nostra Aetate, the New Code, all the popes of VC II, etc.  etc. So , THEREFORE, how can there possibly be a 'state of emergency'??
    Since there is no emergency in Fellay's new world, the three bishops SHOULD present themselves, and their episcopate, to the pope. In fact, as Father LeRoux, the SSPX seminary rector stated last June in Auriesville( at the height of their drunken stupor to have a deal with Rome at any cost), " our priests get their mission from the local Ordinary!!" Therefore, even the Seminary Rector acknowledges that their ordinations are no longer authorized by Canon Law provision of "state of emergency."

        And, there is no wiggle room. they cannot claim they have to wait and "see" about Francis:
    1) what right have you to judge the " pope"? ; and
    2) present yourselves, then,to Benedict ( and he'll just send you up the path to Francis'
         Apartment!).
         Arbp. Mueller, in insisting that the three Bishops turn themselves in to ap monastery,was really just confirming what Fellay has been saying to Rome  ever since the Archbishop passed away" we really, really want to be with you people in Rome--we accept 95 percent of the Council-- we accept you Popes and Bishops of the Council--we believe the new mass is valid--please let us in!"
    All Mueller is saying is "you can't keep talking out of both sides of your mouth. Either you are with us in this Conciliar Church, and you obey, or you are outside  this Conciliar Church, in which we  must excommunicate you againSave the SSPX

    Well said.

    If there is no need of a Doctrinal rectitude / agreement, then there is NO crisis of the Faith!

    Which equals -No state of emergency- hand yourselves in to the Pope.

    In case of grave spiritual necessity (individual or public/general), jurisdiction springs from the request of the faithful, not the theological positions of the priest dispensing the sacraments.

    Therefore, the issue of whether one (or more) priests of the SSPX favor a practical agreement with Rome, or whether or not they believe a state of necessity still exists, is irrelevent to the issue of valid sacraments based on supplied jurisdiction.


          Good point, Sean.

         In the case of request of the faithful, "Ecclesia Supplet."

    ABL told the 4 new bishops at their consecration that they should present
    themselves to the Holy Father AFTER ROME HAS REGAINED THE FAITH.

    NOW, what +Fellay is up to, is turning it around, such that Rome might be
    subjectively converted depending on how you want to think of conversion,
    or depending on what it means to be converted or in the context of what
    you mean to say by "Rome has regained the faith."

    Remember the Communist ploy of perestroika and glasnost?  Was the
    USSR converting?  No way.  That was all about THEM converting US.  We
    were all worked up about the spread of Communism, and what the
    Ruskies were up to
    (whether they knew it or not) was fulfilling the
    prophesy of Our Lady of Fatima, whereby Russia would spread her
    errors throughout the world.
     

    And how did Russia do that?  Perestroika and Glasnost.  They converted
    us.  Now we think like Communists.  Now we re-elected B.O. (for example).

    Same with Rome.  Now they are converting the Menzingen-denizens, and it
    is their project to convert John Vennari, the Superior Generals and the lead
    theologians (Fr. Rostand, Fr. Laisney, Fr. Coture, et. al.,), who will then
    convert the Faithful -- if we let them.  

    So they preach at us -- "We have the grace of state - we have the virtue of
    prudence - we should be obeyed - we should be trusted - don't pay any
    attention to the Internet, or to that man behind the curtain!!!!!!!"  

    And, to a large extent, because of the slowness of the process, it is working.



    Thank God for Fr. Pfeiffer, Bishop Williamson and the Resistance priests.



    Now, it comes down to this:  if you want a valid confession, the first thing
    you need to do when you start your confession, after you say "Bless me,
    Father for I have sinned; it has been _________ (days) since my last
    Confession," is, ask a question:  "Father, I would like to know, are you in
    favor of the Society of St. Pius X being normalized with Rome in this current
    situation?"  If he tells you he is not in favor, then proceed with your
    Confession.  If he tells you an ambiguous answer that makes no sense,
    or if he tells you that it's none of your business, or if he makes some other
    excuse for why you should not be concerned, or if he accuses you of
    committing a sin for asking your Confessor such a personal question because
    it is not his place to confess but your place to confess, OR, IF HE FRANKLY
    TELLS YOU THAT YES, HE IS IN FAVOR OF THE NORMALIZATION OF THE
    SOCIETY UNDER THESE PRESENT CIRcuмSTANCES, then,



    Get up and leave.  Period.  




    Like Fr. Heidt, you cannot argue with a Modernist, so teaches Fr. Pfeiffer,
    who knew the venerable Fr. Heidt, and now relays this doctrine to us, who
    have ears to hear what the spirit is saying to the Churches.



    If you stay, the absolution he gives you will be DOUBTFUL at best, or even
    INVALID because unless he is NOT in favor of normalization under
    the present circuмstances, he has NO JURISDICTION, supplied or
    otherwise, to give you or anyone else absolution.


    You can stay and have a nice chat with a priest who has some training in
    subjects that can be of benefit for you on a psychological or practical
    level, or maybe even give you some actual grace so you can find the
    strength to seek out a priest who does have supplied jurisdiction, but he
    will very likely be unable to absolve you from your sins.  And you are not
    required to subject yourself to doubtful sacraments.  

    In fact, if you are aware that the sacrament is doubtful and you keep going
    through with it anyway, you are committing the sin of sacrilege, which might
    be a mortal sin, if you are aware of its serious consequences and you go
    ahead and do it anyway.  




    Be very careful,
    because there are lots of ways of abusing this.  For example,
    if you find yourself tempted to mention some fault to make it look like you
    are confessing a sin and then say that there is one mortal sin you want
    to confess, and that is that you are here right now committing it, and you
    are really sorry for doing this, but that you know this is not a valid confession
    because you, Father, do not have supplied jurisdiction since you do not
    believe there is any state of necessity for me to be here instead of at St.
    whats-his-name down the street and here I am pretending to request
    absolution when I know full well that you are not capable of giving it to me
    or something to that effect, DO NOT DO IT.  That is a temptation of the devil
    to blaspheme the sacrament.  Have some discernment!!!
