The article is aimed above all at those who believe that Bergoglio and his hierarchy are the Catholic Church. We therefore leave the terminology and ecclesiastical titles as if they were addressed to true Catholics, otherwise the article would be distorted. Sedeplenists, think about it! And remember that Rahner is also Ratzinger's great friend!
Reporting of M.T.
Here it is applied now, to all confessions, the German Jesuit's theory of anonymous Christianity.
Statement through which the Pope greeted the Italian Red Cross, collected in a hearing on Saturday 27 January, see official text here, with these words: “And we ask that the Spirit of the Risen, who is the Spirit of love and peace, teach us this way and help us realize it. For this I ask God's blessing on all of you - God the Father of us all, Father of all confessions – and I invoke it in particular for those who have lost their lives carrying out their service and for their loved ones.”
So much confusion! After two thousand years of clarifications, doctrine, magisterium, It feels like I have to start all over again, how strange! We understand the respect that must be had (and you have it) when you find yourself in front of a speaking Pontiff. When we hear expressions that - however - the nature of the Grace of Baptism makes us immediately understand that "something is wrong" in what we sometimes hear, we stop.
A bit out of awe, partly because we honestly recognize ourselves as small before the Vicar of Christ.... partly out of sincere humility: “well you know! it is the Pope speaking!”. You want for this, you want for something else, this is how the apostasy of our time is triggered. It is necessary to react immediately, without thereby disrespecting the Pope, there would be nothing else! Because we are aware that God comes first. It is true that God became the servant of man, to redeem him, but it is the Pope who is His Vicar, not the other way around, and this implies that the Pope must also curb some of his stubbornness to "invent" new doctrines.
May God be “Father of all”, The Church has always taught this: this is it Good News, the Gospel of life. There is simply no "God" extraneous to human affairs, foreign to the people. Jesus taught us to call him “Abba, Father” and taught us that there is a sonship inherent in Humanity (not inintegral humanism) but we have to find out, WELCOME to become "children and heirs"… «Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned..." (Mc.16,15-18).
In these words it is the Father's plan, of this Father"of everyone"I urge people to know who this "Father" really is, what he wants from his children, what does it offer them in return, if they truly welcome Him, and what can happen if we refuse it. We are ALL Children of the same Father "Creator of heaven and earth....", but becoming one and being one as HEIRS OF HIS PROJECT is something else… It should also be emphasized that in the famous 99 Names dedicated to God, from Islam, the cent is missing, that of "PADRE“…. It's not a strange coincidence?
To be SONS the dynamics is explained by Jesus himself: «I will pray to the Father and he will give you another Comforter to remain with you forever, the Spirit of truth that the world cannot receive, because he does not see him and does not know him. You know him, because he dwells with you and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans, I will return to you. A little more and the world will no longer see me; you will see me instead, because I live and you will live. On that day you will know that I am in the Father, and you in me, and I in you. Whoever accepts my commandments and observes them, he loves me. Whoever loves me will be loved by my Father and I too will love him and reveal myself to him»(Gv.14,16-21).
We understand, At that time, than to preach this one Truth today, It's not politically correct. Jesus clearly says that the true Holy Spirit that He participates in the Sons, the world cannot receive it, because HE DID NOT ACCEPT HIM, HE DOES NOT WELCOME IT. We are not left ORPHANS, says Jesus, underlining this divine paternity which however occurs only through HIM, happens by CONVERTING TO CHRIST. Who doesn't love Jesus, he does not love the Father, and the Father DOES NOT WELCOME HIM as a son. Point.
And so we come to the new doctrinal formulation inserted there, by chance… at the end of a hearing, as if to pretend nothing happened: THE FATHER OF ALL CONFESSIONS.
Ora…. it is one thing to make people understand how God is truly "Father of all" MEN for whom "God became Man“, he suffered, he died and rose again to redeem us, to give us back that sonship that WE HAD LOST WITH THE ORIGINAL SIN... it is another thing to affirm that God is also the Father of all confessions, overturning everything that Jesus said in the Gospels about the Father, about this sonship.
Saying that God is the Father of all confessions VOIDS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF BAPTISM. What is it for, Indeed, what to say: “Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned…”, if we also have a Father who is the Father of Islam, of Buddhism, of Protestantism, and also of atheism or gnosis, and so on? And isn't "Satanism" just one "confession" among many, perhaps that God "is not the Father" or that he did not create those people who, denying it, they then devoted themselves to Satan?
Yes, pay attention to the words, because Bergoglio went far beyond the creative fatherhood of God. Here he stated that God is the Father OF ALL CONFESSIONS... he is therefore not saying that God is the Father simply of a Luther, of a Mohammed, of a Buddha (who was and is a man, not a god), but he is affirming that God is also Father of ALL CONFESSIONS CREATED BY THEM.
In this sense Christianity is truly put on the same level as "all confessions", here evangelization becomes only SOCIAL and Catholic doctrine must be placed in the drawer because... if God is the Father of all confessions, all confessions ARE CHRISTIANISED. Dear friends, this is pure Rahnerism which has its own doctrine defined as ANONYMOUS CHRISTIANITY. It is not possible to explain this heresy here (To learn more we suggest listening this conference by Father Giovanni Cavalcoli), but we can explain its meaning briefly.
The heretical Jesuit Karl Rahner (who contributed significantly to the re-foundation of the modernist Jesuits of the 1970s, see here) cannot deny the doctrine on Grace and Redemption and therefore, as Luther already did centuries before, he's looking too, through new and modern theologies, also click here to find out more, to get around the problem: the doctrine, which is the insurmountable obstacle for him, thus moving forward and moving forward with innovative ideas. Another example you can find it here.
In two words, in his “anonymous Christianity” is the belief than in every religion let "grace" be present and so, in a way unknown to us, the call of God, regardless of the specific conversion. This is heresy because it's one thing to affirm, as the Church teaches, that in every religion "there may be ferments of the Holy Spirit, spirit of Truth, not fully matured“ which would mature if the Church did its work of EVANGELIZATION well “so that man BELIEVES” and not of dialogue as an end in itself, it is another thing to affirm that GRACE is present in every religion-confession regardless of the choices that men will make. Jesus, in the Gospel passages reported above, says quite differently.
Indeed GRACE (Luther's haunting nail) which is always a gift from God, however, it is activated when Man MAKES HIS CHOICE: believe or not believe THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE GOSPEL, and is activated starting with Baptism. It's not automatic, there is no ANONYMITY: GOD HAS REVEALED HIMSELF, and demands from men the same sacrifice that he asked of his Son Jesus.
For Rahner thus ALL RELIGIONS are “Christianly anonymous“, or, They don't know they are "Christians", but by "grace" they are anonymously without realizing it. The modernist Jesuits of the 1950s summarized this passage best: “Catholicize what is not Catholic“.
In fact this is that “potential”, a sort of "accreditation" for the new church towards a WORLD RELIGION which would claim to make the Pope the homogeneous Pastor of ALL CONFESSIONS, each naturally FREE to remain in their own status, without dogmas or doctrines, everyone keeps their own. Rahner starts from the – distorted – concept of freedom, of the free will that men have to exercise THEIR RIGHT whether to welcome SALVATION OR REFUSE IT. So long as, but, Rahner says., salvation is a DIFFICULT concept and the use of free will is UNCERTAIN…. potentially it must be something else that the Church didn't quite understand in the past, he did not elaborate, or maybe he missed it!
In short, if on the one hand Rahner goes so far as to state that all religions have the principle of salvation, even if in their own way or not knowing they have it, the Church however, in two thousand years, he didn't understand anything! His reasoning indeed, automatically invalidates those commandments of Jesus Christ reported above, making us think in the end that it is Christ himself "who perhaps hasn't explained himself well" (After all, there weren't any tape recorders at the time, eh!), but now everything is finally revealed.. to the Jesuits, obvious.
Per Rahner, as for Luther before, and as for the neochiesa Today, this SALVATION is not achieved THROUGH CONVERSION TO CHRIST specifically, but it is simply a gift from God. Grace – for them – is certainly a gift from God, but which advances through "maturation" NOT BY CONVERSION. Of course God communicates himself, but WE WILL NEVER KNOW HIM.... He can be “known only after death”, in the meantime LIVE AS YOU CAN, it doesn't matter how you live, as long as you don't hurt others; it doesn't matter what religion you live, as long as you love others: we are all “Christians anonymous”. It's development, in conclusion, of Luther's heretical doctrine on Grace....
But it is exactly the opposite of what Jesus says! It doesn't take a degree to understand this, all it takes is a bit of healthy Gospel and true Catechism, before they totally change it like they are doing with the Our Father: «I am the way, truth and life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, you will also know the Father: from now on you know him and have seen him». Philip told him: "Gentleman, show us the Father and that is enough for us". Jesus answered him: «I have been with you for a long time and you have not known me, Filippo? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. As you can tell: Show us the Father? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? ….BELIEVE ME….» (Gv 14,6-10)
And then, God is truly the Father of all confessions? NO! Absolutely not! It is a serious heresy that leads to deforming the very identity of Jesus Christ with all his project and the divine institution of the Church itself.
Dio, the Father, he did not create the other religions, he did not create Islam, Protestantism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and so on. He created Men to be redeemed and converted to His Plan as a Father in Christ Jesus, His only Son, FOUNDING ONLY ONE RELIGION THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WITH TRUE CHRISTIANITY. Only this Catholic Church, apostolic and Roman has God as its Father, revealed by Jesus Christ, our Lord and God, and that through Him and Baptism REALLY MAKES US SONS.
God has already revealed EVERYTHING to us in Christ Jesus through His Church, delve deeper into this “everything” yes, it must be done, I can modify it NO, it's pure heresy... There are no "anonymous Christians" and it is not possible to "Catholicize what is not Catholic" if free will is not used to CONVERT to Jesus Christ, with all that this entails.
