Council of Trent Session 6 Chapter 4. On Justification
Insinuatur descriptio iustificationis impii, et modus ejus sub lege gratiae.
Quibus verbis iustificationis impii descriptio ostendit, quod sit translatio ab eo statu in quo homo nascitur filius primi Adae, in statum gratiae et adoptionis filiorum Dei per secundum Adam Iesum Christum Salvatorem nostrum. Quae quidem translatio post evangelium promulgatum, fieri non potest sine lavacro [washing] regenerationis aut eius voto [vow], sicut scriptum est: Nisi quis renatus fuerit ex aqua et Spiritu non potest introire in regnum Dei.
A description is introduced of the justification of the impious, and of the manner thereof under the law of grace. By which words, a description of the justification of the impious is indicated, as being a translation, from that state wherein man is born a child of the first Adam, to the state of grace, and of the adoption of the sons of God, through the second Adam, Jesus Christ, our Savior. Which translation, since the promulgation of the Gospel, cannot be effected without the washing of regeneration or its vow, as it is written unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.
By which words, a description of the justification of the impious is indicated, as being a translation which cannot be effected without the washing of regeneration, or its vow.
Translation: The result of moving from one condition to another.
Baptismal translation results in justification by the moving of water.
Lacking movement, desire for baptismal translation has no result.
Vatican II was not only partially irrational but at one point it was entirely detrimental to the faith. Lumen Gentium Chapter 2 Section 16: 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. (19) Cfr. Epist. S.S.C.S. Officii ad Archiep. Boston.: Denz. 3869-72.
Footnote 19 gives source authority to the 1949 Holy Office Pelangian heresy letter to Archbishop Cushing and is the theological foundation for modern ecumenism resulting in the Church being, for the most part, neo-Protestant.
