But there was news that Viganò was reconsecrated bishop by the hands of Bishop Williamson, who belongs to a priestly society parallel to the Church known as Resistencia. And the archbishop to this day has never denied this fact.
The context analyzed must then be in accordance with the Code of Canon Law of Ecclesiastical Office Functions.
The Priestly Society of Wiliianson, which has consecrated four bishops, has no canonical profession, according to Article 146 of the same Reformed Code of 1983:
"Without canonical provision, no ecclesiastical office can be validly obtained."
In addition, the number 377 says:
"The Supreme Pontiff freely appoints bishops or confirms those legitimately elected." For this reason, the elect owes obedience to the same Pontiff, in number 80:
"Before taking canonical possession of the office, the person promoted must make the profession of faith and the oath of fidelity to the Apostolic See, according to the formula approved by the same Apostolic See."
Implicitly, the archbishop shows that he denies the validity of the sacraments and the gift received, episcopal grace, at the hands of Pope John Paul II himself, who made him a bishop. Article 845 reads:
"The sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Orders, since they imprint character, cannot be repeated."
In addition, he joins the schism of Williamson that a canonical door was opened before, at the time a member of St. Pius X by the pontificate of Benedict XVI, to regularize his irregular ordination. But it was rejected today by the English bishop; Viganò clearly shows both approval of this and receiving a schismatic act by that same bishop. This really means a schism, as Article 1013 says:
"It is not permissible for any bishop to consecrate another bishop unless he is previously informed of the pontifical mandate."
That is why the Catholic creed says that the Church is one, holy, apostolic, catholic and roman; The Roman Pontiff, therefore, keeps visible unity in the faith.
