Enter through the narrow gate : The Catholic Church is the narrow gate

He said : To what is the kingdom of God like, and whereunto shall I resemble it? It is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his garden, and it grew and became a great tree, and the birds of the air lodged in the branches thereof.And again he said: Whereunto shall I esteem the kingdom of God to be like?
 It is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened. And he went through the cities and towns teaching, and making his journey to Jerusalem.  And a certain man said to him: Lord, are they few that are saved? But he said to them:  Strive to enter by the narrow gate; for many, I say to you, shall seek to enter, and shall not be able. -Luke 13:18-23 (Douay-Rheims Bible)
The Gospel Reading tomorrow says enter through the narrow gate and many shall seek to enter and shall not be able.
Similarly Matthew 7:13 says 'Enter ye in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there are who go in thereat. How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it! '
The narrow gate is the Church, the Catholic Church, the only Church that Jesus founded. It is the Mystical Body of Jesus(1 Cor 12:12-31; Col 1:18; 2:18-20; Eph. 1:22-23; 3:19; 4:13). There was only one Church at the time of Jesus. There were no Protestant communities .There was no schism which created the Orthodox Church.
For salvation from Hell all need to enter the Catholic Church, said Jesus.This was the narrow gate outside of which there is no salvation. There is no salvation without Jesus in the Catholic Church.
The Bible passage which precedes tomorrows Gospel Reading also refers to the importance of the Catholic Church for salvtion.
He said therefore: To what is the kingdom of God like, and whereunto shall I resemble it? It is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his garden, and it grew and became a great tree, and the birds of the air lodged in the branches thereof.And again he said: Whereunto shall I esteem the kingdom of God to be like?
 It is like to leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.-Luke 13:18-19
The Kingdom of God cannot be separated from the Church says the Declaration Dominus Iesus, of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.Jesus cannot be separated from the Church.In Acts 9:4 Jesus identifies himself with the Catholic Church.
'And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?  Who said: Who art thou, Lord? And he: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad.'Acts 9:4
The Catholic Church is compared to the man who finds a treasure in a field and sells everything to have it. It is the pearl of great price.
The kingdom of heaven is like unto a treasure hidden in a field. Which a man having found, hid it, and for joy thereof goeth, and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.  Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls.-Matthew 13:44
The Catholic Church, is the pearl of great price, it is the treasure that the man finds in the field and sells all to have it, it is the mustard seed and the great tree,it is the leaven and it is the narrow gate, through which all must enter to find salvation.Most people do not take it and so go to the fires of Hell.They choose the wide road.

This Advent when priests will choose to offer Holy Mass facing the East, they will be do so with manifest heresy, created by interpreting magisterial documents with an irrational premise to reach an irrational conclusion:among them will be Cardinal Sarah


Cardinal Sarah offers Holy Mass with a theology which is a rupture with the Syllabus of Errors.In this manner he will offer Holy Mass this Advent.Since for him extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS) is Cushingite.So is Vatican Council II.They are explicit exceptions to the Syllabus of Errors on other religions and Christian communities.
The concept of salvation in the Syllabus of Errors is rejected by him.
He offers Holy Mass Ad Orientem, rejecting the Syllabus of Errors which was based on the old ecclesiology of EENS (Feeneyite).1
This error cannot be pointed out to him by Bishop Fellay,the liberal cardinals or Fr. John Zuhlsdorf since they also affirm EENS, Vatican Council II and the Nicene Creed, Cushingite. For all of them hypothetical references are not hypothetical but objectively visible to be relevant and an exception to EENS ( Feeneyite).
So this Advent when some priests will choose to offer Holy Mass facing the East, they will be doing so with manifest heresy.It will be created by interpreting magisterial documents with an irrational premise.In this way they will reach an irrational conclusion.
I affirm EENS, Vatican Council II,the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the Nicene Creed with Feeneyism and would invite Cardinal Sarah and the whole Church to do the same. Since it is rational, traditional and non heretical.
There would also be no theological exceptions to the traditional teaching on the Social Reign of Christ the King over all political legislation and the non separation of Church and State.
There would also be no theological exceptions to the Scriptural teachings in John 3:5( the necessity of baptism) and Mark 16:16( those who do not believe will be condemned).

Cardinal Sarah offers Mass Ad Orientem interprets Vatican Council II with a new premise which violates the Principle of Non Contradiction.It supports a 'new faith' in the Catholic Church http://eucharistandmission.blogspot.it/2016/08/cardinal-sarah-offers-mass-facing-east.html



TERMS EXPLAINED

Feeneyism: It is the old theology and philosophical reaoning which says there are no  known exceptions past or present, to the dogma EENS.There are no explicit cases to contradict the traditional interpretation of EENS.


Cushingism:  It is the new theology and philosophical reasoning, which assumes  there are known exceptions, past and present, to the dogma EENS, on the need for all to formally enter the Church.It assumes that the baptism of desire etc are not hypothetical but objectively known.In principle hypothetical cases are objective in the present times.


Baptism of  Desire (Feeneyite): It refers to the hypothetical case of an unknown catechumen who desires the baptism of water but dies before he receives it and is saved. Since this is an invisible case in our reality it is not relevant to the dogma EENS.


Baptism of  Desire (Cushingite): It refers to the known case of a catechumen who desires the baptism of water but dies before he receives it and is saved. Since this is a visible case or the SSPX it is relevant to the dogma EENS.


Invincible Ignorance ( Feeneyite): This refers to the hypothetical case of someone allegedly saved without the baptism of water in the Catholic Church, since he was in ignorance.


Invincible Ignorance (Cushingite): This refers to the explicit case of someone allegedly saved without the baptism of water in the Catholic Church, since he was in ignorance.Since it is an exception to the dogma EENS it is assumed to be objectively known in particular cases.This reasoning is irrational.


Council of Florence.One of the three Councils which defined the dogma EENS.It did not mention any exceptions.


Liberal theologians:They reinterpreted the baptism of desire and being saved in invincible ignorance, as objective cases, known in the present times.


Vatican Council II (Cushingite): It refers to the interpretation of Vatican Council II with Cushingism.LG 16, LG 8, UR 3, NA 2 etc refer not to hypothetical but known cases in the present times. So Vatican Council II emerges as a break with the dogma EENS.


Vatican Council II (Feeneyite):It refers to the interpretation of Vatican Council II with Feeneyism.LG 16, LG 8, UR 3, NA 2 etc refer to hypothetical cases, which are unknown personally in the present times.So Vatican Council II is not a break with EENS, the Syllabus of Errors, ecumenism of return, the Nicene Creed ( Feeneyite-one baptism),the teaching on the Social Reign of Christ the King over all political legislation and  the non separation of Church and State( since all need to convert into the Church to avoid Hell).
.
Letter of the Holy Office 1949 to the Archbishop of Boston. It assumed hypothetical cases were defacto known in the present times. So it presented the baptism of desire etc as an explicit exception, to the traditional interpretation of the dogma EENS.It censured Fr.Leonard Feeney and the St.Benedict Center.Since they did not assume that the baptism of desire referred to a visible instead of invisible case.The Letter made the baptism of desire etc relevant to EENs.From the second part of this Letter has emerged the New Theology.


Baltimore Catechism. It assumed that the desire for the baptism of an unknown catechumen, who dies before receiving it and was saved, was a baptism like the baptism of water. So it was placed in the Baptism Section of the catechism. In other words it was wrongly assumed that the baptism of desire is visible and repeatable like the baptism of water or that we can administer it like the baptism of water.


Catechism of Pope X. It followed the Baltimore Catechism and placed the baptism of desire in the Baptism Section.


Nicene Creed ( Cushingite) It says 'I believe in one baptism for the forgiveness of sins' and means there are more than three known baptisms. They are water, blood, desire, seeds of the Word etc.

Nicene Creed ( Feeneyite). It says 'I believe in one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and means there is one known baptism the baptism of water.
(The FSSP does not interpret the Nicene Creed with traditional Feeneyism.)
 
New Theology: It refers to the new theology in the Catholic Church based on hypothetical cases being objective in the present times.So it eliminates the dogma EENS.With the dogma EENS made obsolete the ecclesiology of the Church changes. There is a new ecclesiology which is a break with Tradition.

Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus ( Cushingite) .It refers to the dogma but with exceptions.All do not need to defacto convert into the Church in the present times, since there are exceptions.


Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus ( Feeneyite).It  refers to the dogma as it was interpreted over the centuries.There are no known exceptions to all needing to formally enter the Church, with faith and baptism, to avoid Hell.


Catechism of the Catholic Church ( Cushingite).CCC 1257 contradicts the Principle of Non Contraduction. Also CCC 848 is based on the new theology and so is a rupture with the dogma EENS( Feeneyite).


Catechism of the Catholic Church ( Feeneyite).CCC 1257 does not contradict the Principle of Non Contradiction since there are no known exceptions to all needing the baptism of water for salvation. There are no known exceptions, since God is not limited to the Sacraments.
When CCC 846 states all who are saved are saved through Jesus and the Church,CCC 846 does not contradict the dogmatic teaching on all needin to formally enter the Church. CCC 846 does not contradict Ad Gentes 7 which states all need faith and baptism for salvation.
