The SSPX members who met at the General Chapter Meeting saw through the ruse

It is a year for the Society of St.Pius X (SSPX) General Chapter Statement (1) and there still is a fundamental difference on the interpretation of Vatican Council II. The General Chapter said there are no exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus. For the Vatican Curia there are known exceptions.

 For this reason it seems opportune that we reaffirm our faith in the Roman Catholic Church, the unique Church founded by Our Lord Jesus Christ, outside of which there is no salvation nor possibility to find the means leading to salvation; our faith in its monarchical constitution, desired by Our Lord Himself, by which the supreme power of government over the universal Church belongs only to the Pope, Vicar of Christ on earth; our faith in the universal Kingship of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Creator of both the natural and the supernatural orders, to Whom every man and every society must submit.-SSPX General Chapter Statement (July 14, 2012)

 

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Vatican assumes there are known exceptions to the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.So they reject the traditional teaching on other religions, they reject the traditional teaching on ecumenism assuming there are known exceptions. They reject the concept of a Catholic State since they assume that non Catholics are saved in the present times that these cases are visible and personally known.So the dogma is now obsolete.

 

Collegiality does not consider the literal interpretation of the dogma and the Primacy of the pope is questioned assuming that the Orthodox Christians are saved in general in their religion.

 

The SSPX  General Chapter understood correctly that the problem of modernism comes from assuming that there are defacto known exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus.

 

If there are no known exceptions to extra ecclesiam nulla salus,we cannot see the dead in 2013, then the Catholic teaching on other religions is still traditional, the teaching on ecumenism knows no exceptions, there is a moral obligation to work for a Catholic State, there can only be the Primacy of the pope over the Orthodox Christians and Collegiality must take into consideration the literal interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.

 

For the Jewish Left it is imprortant that there is confusion on extra ecclesiam nulla salus. The SSPX members who met at the General Chapter Meeting saw through the ruse.
