SSPX PLEASE INFORM ECCLESIA DEI THAT VATICAN COUNCIL II SAYS ALL JEWS NEED TO CONVERT AND THAT CATHOLICS ARE THE CHOSEN PEOPLE OF GOD

The text of the Council supports the Society of St.Pius X position on ecumenism and other religions and indicates that they have the religious liberty to proclaim these teachings to all.

NO DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES EXIST

There are no doctrinal differences between the Vatican and the Society of St.Pius X (SSPX) if Ecclesia Dei announces that Vatican Council II (Ad Gentes 7) (1) is in agreement with the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and also with Lumen Gentium 16, Vatican Council II on invincible ignorance and those saved with a good conscience (2).

LG 16 is not an explicit exception to the dogma or AG 7.Since we do not know any case saved in invincible ignorance and a good conscience.We accept these cases as possibilities. Defacto we can never know anyone saved with a good conscience etc.They are known only in Heaven.

Secondly Nostra Aetate 4 says Catholics are the ‘new people of God’.Catholics are the Chosen People now.

Thirdly Cardinal Karl Josef Becker, S.J.says the Church of Christ is identified with the Catholic Church. The Church of Christ is the Catholic Church. The Jesuit priest who was made a cardinal during the last consistory is saying extra ecclesiam nulla salus. The true Church of Christ exists in only the Catholic Church he says and elements of this one true Church could exist in the Orthodox Christian churches and those in partial communion with the Catholic Church.

The cardinal designate is affirming the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus which says all need to convert into the Catholic Church for salvation. The dogma Cantate Domino, Council of Florence specifically mentions the Orthodox Christians and Protestants and states they need to convert.

According to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus the Church of Christ is the Catholic Church.

Lumen Gentium 8 and 16 suggest that there is the possibility of a non Catholic being saved however since these cases are not defacto known to us Vatican Council II does not contradict the dogma.We can accept these cases as possibilities and never ever known defacto in the present time.

These three points are in agreement with the SSPX position that all non Catholics need to convert into the Catholic Church for salvation. This was the traditional teaching and it is the teaching after Vatican Council II.

SSPX please ask Ecclesia Dei to publicly endorse the text of Vatican Council II which says all non Catholics need to convert into the Church for salvation , Catholics are the new people of God and the true Church of Christ is the Catholic Church.

For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, Himself a man, Jesus Christ, who gave Himself as a ransom for all" (1 Tim. 2:45), "neither is there salvation in any other" (Acts 4:12). Therefore, all must be converted to Him, made known by the Church's preaching, and all must be incorporated into Him by baptism and into the Church which is His body. For Christ Himself "by stressing in express language the necessity of faith and baptism (cf. Mark 16:16; John 3:5), at the same time confirmed the necessity of the Church, into which men enter by baptism, as by a door.

Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience.
