Pope Innocent III: A Pope can be Judged for Heresy

Here is the answer from a POPE to all the Francis apologists who claim that a heretical pope can't be judged by the Church.

This is especially for Dr. Taylor Marshall, Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Steve Skojec, Mark Shea as well as all his Patheos collaborators and all the assorted liberal to conservative to traditionalist Francis apologists.

Pope Innocent III (1198-1216) in "Si Papa":

"'Let no mortal being have the audacity to reprimand a Pope on account of faults, for he whose duty it is to judge all men cannot be judged by anybody, unless he should be called to the task of having deviated from the faith. (Si Papa)'"

"Pope Innocent III: 'For me the faith is so necessary that, whereas for other sins my only judge is God, for the slightest sin in the matter of the faith I could be judged by the Church.' (propter solum peccatum quod in fide commititur possem ab Ecclesia judican)"
(The Remnant, "Answering a Sedevacantist Critic," March 18, 2015)

Always remember:

"Whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin " - James 4:17

All you Catholic cardinals, bishops, priests, pundits, religious, and laity read this passage carefully because your eternal salvation of Heaven or Hell may be in the balance. Pray God gives you the grace and courage to do the "right thing" despite the consequences in this temporary world. You can fool men, but you can't fool God.

Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church.

I believe this is true as if my soul depends on it. Which it does.

Go back and search ancient writings, you will find no one accepted into the Magisterium that contradicts Pope Innocent III.

That is the Magisterial measuring stick - the Truth Detector.

"...unless he should be called to the task of having deviated from the faith."

It seems to me that many have read this passage but are neglecting to quote it in full. What could possibly be the reason? (No, please don't reply. It's sadly obvious.)

In this case Francis was never a Pope from the gitgo due to the defective resignation of Pope Benedict.

By which he resigned from the active ministry but not the munus and passive/contemplative/suffering ministry. Thus Pope Benedict tried to bifurcate and expand the office of the papacy as confirmed and detailed with Pope Benedict’s approval in May 2016 by Archbishop Ganswein.

Not for one nanosecond has George the Mad Bergoglio, Antipope Francis, the ‘pope’ of Stang, been the true Vicar of Christ on earth.

5 Dubia Questions for 1P5's Steve Skojec & All faithful Catholics especially Francis is definitely Pope Cardinals, Bishops & pundits

Here are five really short and easy to answer dubia questions which hopefully aren't too complicated for Steve Skojec, publisher of the One Peter Five website, to answer. To make it really easy for the publisher of One Peter Five it has been formatted so that he only has to answer: yes or no. 1. Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales said "The Pope... when he is explicitly a heretic... the Church must either deprive him or as some say declare him deprived of his Apostolic See." Was St. Francis de Sales a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 2. "Universal Acceptance" theologian John of St. Thomas said "This man in particular lawfully elected and accepted by the Church is the supreme pontiff." Was John of St. Thomas for saying "the supreme pontiff" must be BOTH "lawfully elected and accepted by the Church" a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 3. Do you think that a "supreme pontiff...

Mary's Secretary - My Spat with Tim Gordon: "Well, 'either one gives up the scapular or they give up immodesty'. The point is they cannot coexist."

By Mary's Secretary In my book  The Practice of the Presence of Mary: To Live and Die with Mary , I dedicated Part II to Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Her scapular (fitting as Her feast is approaching), and I specifically mentioned how the scapular and spaghetti straps DO NOT go together. What I mean by that is I have noticed that those in the Church who DO NOT follow the Catholic dress code typically aren’t the ones wearing the scapular. I went on to say that modesty and the scapular go together and if you ever  were  immodest in dress, the scapular, being Our Lady’s sacramental that it is, gives one the grace to BECOME modest.  I can attest to this in my own life. Only after I was enrolled in the scapular did I begin, little by little, become modest. It’s a process. Kind of like the rosary quote, “one either gives up the sin or they give up the rosary.” Well, “either one gives up the scapular or they give up immodesty”. The point is they cannot coexist. In fact...
