Flashback: Archbishop Lenga, Bishop Gracida and St. Francis de Sales vs. The Sammons Creed & his latest "Blab Blab Blab... it's so Dangerous to think there might be an Antipope" or that Francis is a Heretic
Are Bp. Gracida & Bp. Lenga the New St. Athanisius Bishops?
Benepapist position argues that every single active [non-retired] Catholic bishop is wrong about who is pope. -Eric Sammons [https://www.crisismagazine.com/2022/the-spiritual-dangers-of-sedevacantism]
Moreover, Bishop Gracida's Open Letter and Pope John Paul II's document make a number of points which neither Skojec, Peters or anyone else to my knowledge have even brought up or offered any counter argument against.
They are both wrong if they ignore this important Open Letter of Bishop Gracida.
If Skojec and Peters as well as the conservative and traditional Catholic media are ignoring Bishop Gracida because he isn't a cardinal and retired, remember that St. Athanasius wasn't a cardinal (that is involved in the selection or election process of the pope of the time) and was retired.
During the Arian heresy crisis, Pope Liberius excommunicated Athanasius. You don't get any more retired than being excommunicated. - The Catholic Monitor [https://www.thecatholicmonitor.com/2020/01/might-remnants-matt-finally-be-willing.html]
The following is from a Catholic Monitor reader on Eric Sammons latest "blab blab blab... it's so dangerous to think there might be an antipope":
The Spiritual Dangers of Sedevacantism - Crisis Magazine...
... blab blab blab... it's so dangerous to think there might be an antipope.
They aren't even trying to make sense.
Mr. Sammons read and, please, give serious arguments against Bishop Rene Gracida's Open Letter to the Cardinals analyzing and quoting Pope John Paul II's Universi Dominici Gregis calling for an investigation into the Francis conclave.
Please read and give serious arguments against Latin langauge expert Br. Bugnolo's in-depth thesis "Munus and Ministerium: A Textual Study of their Usage in the Code of Canon Law of 1983" using exhaustive quotations from canon law showing why canon law explicitly states that ministerium and munus cannot be synonyms that mean the exact same thing or nearly the same thing.
Mr. Sammons are you too lazy to seriously debate?
Moreover, Archbishop Jan Lenga rejected "being de facto suspended by Wioclawek Bishop Wieslaw Meeting, Poland."
(Glovia.tv, "Archbishop Lenga will not Respect Sanctions," February 25, 2020)
There are reports that Texas Bishop Rene Gracida supports Archbishop Lenga.
Is Archbishop Lenga in schism as some are stating for claiming Pope Benedict XVI's resignation was invalid thus Francis is an antipope?
It must be remembered in history that St. Bernard of Clairvaux claimed the supposed pope in Rome was an antipope as Lenga is doing and was declared correct by an imperfect council which he headed.
Was St. Bernard in schism?
The Arian heretics were saying the same thing about St. Athanasius. That he was in schism.
The saint was resisting the Arian heretic bishops even apparently outside the valid pope's approval.
It appears that Archbishop Lenga may force the cardinals and bishops to do an investigation and call an imperfect council into the validity of the Francis's papacy because a bishop cannot suspend a bishop, but only by a valid pope.
But Lenga states Benedict is still pope because of a invalid resignation and therefore Francis isn't pope according to the archbishop.
Cardinal John Henry Newman it appears showed that a validly appointed bishop can't suspend another validly appointed bishop.
Newman said Athanasius ordained priests against the authority of the Arian heretical bishops who were validly appointed bishops.
In fact, scholar Joseph Bingham on page 98 in "The Antiquities of the Christian Church" said:
"Athanasius... made no scruples to ordain... [Bishop] Euesebius of Samosata... ordained bishops also in Syria and Cilicia."
Moreover, Newman in his "The Development of Christian Doctrine" denied that Bishop Athanasius's "interference" in the dioceses of the heretical Arian bishops was schism:
"If interference is a sin, division which is the cause of it is a greater; but where division is a duty, there can be no sin interference."
(Gutenberg.org, "An Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine," Sixth Edition)
Was Doctor of the Church St. Athanasius a schismatic?
Moreover, serious scholars are claiming Francis is a material heretic. The 19 Scholar's Open Letter say that Francis is a material heretic which also brings into play the Bellarmine and Francis de Sales option of declaring an explicit heretical pope self-deposed.
However, the Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales option might not be available to him because of his creed:
The Sammons Creed
"I believe in Francis and that it is infallible dogma that he is pope no matter what evidence shows that he violated the Pope John Paul II constitution that governed the validity or invalidity of the 2013 conclave. He suffered under Bishop Rene Gracida who classified the evidence that the constitution was violated and called the cardinals to investigate. He descended into the Vatican gay lobby. He ascended to the papal throne where he sits surrounded by the gay lobby cardinals from where he shall judge the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Ten Commandments and all the infallible Catholic teachings."
"I believe in Amoris Laetitia, the Communion of adulterers, Francis's representation of globalist teachings which embodies the Soros gospel of unlimited mass immigration, climate change, an one-world government and the goddess Mother Earth everlasting."
I wrote this ecumenical creed in honor of Sammons with the hope that it will help all the Francis traditionalists and the Francis liberals to unite in their common communion with Francis.
After all, isn't it true that the leftist Mark Shea Catholics have joined hands with their Francis traditionalist brothers in using the Steve Skojec and Sammons talking points of "schismatic" and "sedevacantist" against all Catholics who present evidence that the 2013 conclave Pope John Paul constitution was violated including Bishop Gracida and even Cardinal Raymond Burke for daring to imply that the Francis conclave could be invalid and that Francis's Communion for adulterers could be heretical.
While it is well know that Skojec, Sammons and all the Francis traditionalists feel uncomfortable with the Soros gospel part of the Francis creed, they must endure this temporary discomfort.
They must remember that they do agree with the Francis liberals in the part of the creed that says it is a infallible dogma that Francis is a valid pope no matter what the evidence shows and moreover they must stay in communion with him even when by his "authentic Magisterium" authority he teaches Communion for adulterers without committing obstinate heresy.
They must never forget that they are in union with the Francis liberals in believing that he cannot be corrected nor can he as Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales proclaimed be "deprived... of his Apostlic See" for being "explicitly a heretic":
"The Pope... when he is explicitly a heretic... the Church must either deprive him or as some say declare him deprived of his Apostlic See."
(The Catholic Controversy by St. Francis de Sales, Pages 305-306)
Pray an Our Father now for reparation for the sins committed because of Francis's Amoris Laetitia.
Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Church as well as the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Stop for a moment of silence, ask Jesus Christ what He wants you to do now and next. In this silence remember God, Father, Son and Holy Ghost - Three Divine Persons yet One God, has an ordered universe where you can know truth and falsehood as well as never forget that He wants you to have eternal happiness with Him as his son or daughter by grace. Make this a practice. By doing this you are doing more good than reading anything here or anywhere else on the Internet.
Francis Notes:
- Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales totally confirmed beyond any doubt the possibility of a heretical pope and what must be done by the Church in such a situation:
"[T]he Pope... WHEN he is EXPLICITLY a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church, and the Church MUST either deprive him, or, as some say, declare him deprived, of his Apostolic See."
(The Catholic Controversy, by St. Francis de Sales, Pages 305-306)
Saint Robert Bellarmine, also, said "the Pope heretic is not deposed ipso facto, but must be declared deposed by the Church."
