NO DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES WITH THE SSPX


A report on Rorate Caeli states:

Rome-SSPX:
Bp. Arrieta Ochoa, of "Legislative Texts":
"I think we were able to clarify the doctrinal problems"
The Secretary of the Pontifical Council for the Interpretation of Legislative Texts, Bishop Juan Ignacio Arrieta Ochoa, was in Louvain-la-Neuve spoke to the Belgian daily La Libre… He also had the following to say on … the Society of Saint Pius X (FSSPX / SSPX):
…Regarding the problem of the reintegration of the Lefebvrists, I think we were able to clarify the doctrinal problems, even if it is not easy to put all that onto paper. The true problem, the only one for me, is the separation, the human distance dating from 1988."- Rorate Caeli http://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/
Is he saying that the baptism of desire,invincibile ignorance,a good conscience, elements of sanctification, seeds of the Word and imperfect communion with the Church -are not exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and the Society of St.Pius X position on other religions?

If there are no known exceptions, then Ad Gentes 7 supports the SSPX position on other religions and ecumenism: all need catholic faith and the baptism of water for salvation (AG 7).

However if Ecclesia Dei and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith would continue to assume that we know cases of non Catholics saved in invincible ignorance and the baptism of desire; an error also of Pope Benedict XVI , then it would mean that there are explicit exceptions to AG 7 and the defined dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus. It would mean that Vatican Council II contradicts the SSPX position on inter religious dialogue and ecumenism.

If there are exceptions to the dogma then how can you proclaim the Social Kingship of Christ the King for ALL humanity.

There are no doctrinal differences since we do not know any exceptions to AG 7 or the dogma outside the Church no salvation.
