VATICAN REOPEN THE BOSTON CASE: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN EXPLICIT BAPTISM OF DESIRE

Till today Catholics say those who have the baptism of desire do not have to convert into the Catholic Church. Fr. Leonard Feeney denied the baptism of desire, because there is no explicit baptism of desire that we can know of.

Till today Fr. Hans Kung says Vatican Council Ii has contradicted the dogma extra ecclesaim nulla salus since Lumen Gentium says those in invincible ignorance and with the baptism of desire can be saved. Yet can there be an explicit baptism of desire for us the viewer. Is it objective, verifiable and ‘see able’?

The Baptism of Desire is always implicit for us (the viewer).

This is a pre-Vatican Council II error that has continued when the Archbishop of Boston Richard Cushing criticized Fr. Leonard Feeney for saying those in invincible ignorance or with the baptism of desire cannot be saved.

The Archbishop was giving us a new doctrine, he was saying those saved with implicit faith (baptism of desire etc) are rally explicit cases. They are as explicit and see-able as an adult receiving the baptism of water.

The secular media picked up the error and has maintained it until today. They write that the Catholic Church has changed its ancient teaching on extra ecclesiam nulla salus.The Church now teaches everyone does not need explicit salvation(baptism of water) and that those who have the baptism of desire(implicitly) can also be saved .They unfortunately mean that this baptism of desire is explicit, knowable and able to be judged personally. Yet the baptism of desire is something known and accepted only in principle, you cannot give someone the baptism of desire explicitly. It can never be explicit so how fan it contradict the infallible teaching?

If someone has the baptism of desire it will be only known to God. This has been the traditional understanding. Hence everyone needs the Sacraments explicitly.

The media is promoting the lie about the baptism of desire being explicit. This ‘explicit –implicit baptism of desire’ is a Richard Cushing doctrine and not part of the deposit of the faith.

The deposit of the faith is that everybody explicitly needs to enter the Catholic Church; everyone needs to be a member of the Catholic Church ((through the baptism of water and Catholic Faith) for salvation.
