Archbishop Bruno Forte's book, La Chiesa della Trinita, is one of the recommended books for the Ecclesiology Semester at the St. John Lateran University, Rome.Forte accepts the dogma on the Trinity but not the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS).So for him, the Catholic Church is Trinitarian but without exclusive salvation.He uses a false premise to interpret Vatican Council II.Then creates a rupture with the old ecclesiology.
Why is there no exclusive salvation upon which was based traditional mission ?
Pope Benedict answered this question in March 2016 in an interview with daily Avvenire. He said the Church no more teaches EENS according to the missionaries of the 16th century.Since there was ' a development' with Vatican Council II. He meant Vatican Council II interpreted with a false premise, creates a non traditional conclusion.So the Council would indicate there are people saved outside the Church.This is 'a development' for him.
Exclusive salvation in the Church was made obsolete since there was alleged known salvation outside the Church for him.With known salvation outside the Church there no more was traditional mission.There was no more exclusive salvation in the Church.
This is what he calls a development with his Cushingite reasoning.
Bruno Forte, has repeated Cardinal Ratzinger's concept of ecclesiology and has changed the Church's teachings on faith and salvation.At one of the Synods his understanding on morals, mortal sin, homosexuality, giving the Eucharist to the divorced and remarried, also seemed non traditional.
Probably Bruno Forte and Marcello Semeraro were asked to write a book on Ecclesiology, for use at the Pontifical universities, based on Ratzinger's model.The Church is communion, mystery, people of God, Sacrament etc but not the only Ark of Noah that saves in the flood and in which all need to enter.
For me Vatican Council II is Feeneyite so there is no change in the ecclesiology of the Catholic Church.There is no new revelation with the Council, no new development.-Lionel Andrades
