"Holy Thursday marks the institution of the priesthood and the Eucharist. What an incredible gift, and yet how very much it is ignored, or worse. Get to Confession, folks. Sorrowful Mysteries these three days. Blessed Triduum, all. -nvp"

When we delve deeper, we begin to understand Benedict XVI's gesture of keeping the Munus petrinum to himself...

Eucharistic communion is valid in union with a legitimate Supreme Pontiff. That is when we read the Ecclesia De Eucharistia, according to the teaching of Pope John Paul II.

In Article 38 it says: the Holy Spirit incorporated into the Church instituted in her the means of salvation through the bonds of "profession of faith, of the sacraments, of ecclesiastical government and of communion" through this structure which the document affirms to be visible, but "through the Supreme Pontiff and the Bishops."

Later, in Article 39, we can delve into this: the communion of the Church in the Eucharist is fundamental to communion with the Bishop and with the Roman Pontiff. The document condemns anyone who goes against this teaching because it is an "incongruity" to this unity. Because the Pope, as the successor of Peter, is "the perpetual and visible foundation of the unity not only of the Bishops, but also of the multitude of the faithful." And it becomes an "intrinsic requirement" to maintain a legitimate unity in the Catholic Church.

This Encyclical Letter shows us that the celebration of Mass is valid only when it expresses this communion with Peter, a legitimately elected Supreme Pontiff, and other legitimate Bishops in communion with him.

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...

UPDATE: Fr. Ripperger's Prayer Recommendation for the Election: He Calls It "The Most Efficatious Prayer in Crushing Diabolical Influence In the Area of Oppression"!

During a recent interview on the Grace Force Podcast on YouTube, Exorcist Fr. Chad Ripperger   provided updated information that the prayers he officially recommends  for the laity to say with regard to the election, President Trump and our country  are the two  prayers posted below.  https://youtu.be/UKrLr4jW0Eo First of all, it is very important to start by saying that the usual means of receiving merit and graces are of paramount importance. That is, remain in a state of grace, recite the rosary daily, attend Mass as frequently as possible, receiving frequent communion, and frequent confession.  Father Ripperger mentions that we should offer all these things up and ultimately to be praying for an "honest, fair, and just election"..."and "for Trump's protection."  He references his book,  Deliverance Prayers: for Use by the Laity,  and states, "there is a prayer, and this is the one that I'm going to recommend because it's the one...
