He would seem a natural to explicate the "novelties" promulgated by the current Bishop of Rome, as well as more slickly introducing new ones. <br /><br />Or will the graf's natural slipperiness be his undoing?

To-day I was talking to a grandmother who mentioned that none of her children or grandchildren practised the faith. I said this was the common experience of most parents of our generation. She said she had mentioned this to her parish priest who replied to say she should not blame Nicolas Bellordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08063019108964247676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-66660247079791382802018-08-19T21:52:10.254+01:002018-08-19T21:52:10.254+01:00May God bring a "merciful, welcoming, accompa...May God bring a "merciful, welcoming, accompanying" end to this disaster of a Pontificate .jmbutkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07667243972751647346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8940364093450837549.post-28271724069749900192018-08-19T21:15:09.208+01:002018-08-19T21:15:09.208+01:00Rosica's declaration seems to me to go well be...Rosica's declaration seems to me to go well beyond heresy into apostasy--because it nullifies the ONLY two sources of revelation.<br /><br />Another way to put it is the Sin Against the Holy Spirit, in that it locates the revelatory activity of the Holy Spirit outside Scripture and Tradition.Fr.

The big difference with this heresy is that it is coming from the top, from someone who is twisting everything that went before to make it seem that this one man alone has the power of office to simply declare and impose it.
