St.Maximiilian Kolbe was an editor for a magazine which sold in Poland in overwhelming numbers. The people needed the Faith and he fed them. Church Militant TV needs to do the same. The saint in the 1930s held the strict interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus and not that of Bradley Eli and Christine Niles.
Michael Voris must follow St.Maximillian Kolbe so that CMTV’s viewers may grow.
Catholics must see that CMTV is holding the standard while the ship is being rocked by various forces.
There are control-labels like Anti Semitism etc which now prevent Michael from speaking the truth about the Faith, especially the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus, which we now know is not contradicted by Vatican Council II interpreted rationally.
Vatican Council II interpreted rationally does not contradict the
Fourth Lateran Concia (1215) on EENS.This is the Catholic Faith and it must be
proclaimed whatever the cost.This was the Faith of St. Maximillian Kolbe before the 1949 Letter of the Holy Office was issued.
The priority must be to proclaim the Faith and not provide employment and sustain careers.
If the forces against CMTV are too strong in the present times, don't let the ship sink without shouting the Faith- even like a last gasp. .Shout it from the house tops. Let it be a shreik.
Church Militant TV has not done this over the years. Their approach was to take the middle road and please the liberals and the important people, who allowed them to stay as a media.
CMTV must stand - at least for some time - like a martyr who knows he is going to die- and this is his last shout, his last chance to proclaim the Faith. What CMTV has not proclaimed all these years is : salvation in Jesus in the Catholic Church alone and this is supported by Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Correct the CMTV position on Vatican Council II and go down like the Vendees.
Catholic viewers and non viewers will know that Michael Voris represents them.Others of course will hate CMTV because they know that they have to give up a career, a privelege or a life.
But this was also the choice before St. Maximillian Kolbe too.As an editor he did not water down the truth on salvation to please any particular group of people.
CMTV must do the same at this hour, which could be the Final Hour, the end times, for people in general. - Lionel Andrades

Michael Voris, Bradley Eli and Christine Niles have theologically not made an impact in the Church, they somehow ‘have not connected’, they are ‘not coherent’. They fall back on the liberal theology of Pope Benedict and call it ‘magisterial’. They confuse what is invisible as being visible and then conclude that there is known salvation outside the Catholic Church.
SALVATION AND THE CHURCH
LUKE 13:23: 'LORD, ARE THEY FEW THAT ARE SAVED?'
The Catholic Church infallibly teaches the truth that "Outside the Church, there is no salvation." The Church isn't saying here that only Catholics go to Heaven but that all graces needed for salvation originate in Christ and pass through His Mystical Body, the Church.
Lionel: The Catholic Church is saying here that there are only Catholics in Heaven. If there are non Catholics who are going to Heaven, in Heaven they will only be Catholic.

Section 846 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church affirms that this dogma does mean "All salvation comes from Christ the head through the Church, which is His body."
Lionel: Yes all salvation comes from Christ the Head through the Church, which is His Body and all need to enter the Catholic Church with faith and the baptism of water for salvaton ( Ad Gentes 7, Lumen Gentium 14, Catechism of the Catholic Church 845, 846, Fourth Lateran Council (1215) etc).
____________________
Those unable to know this truth have what's called invincible ignorance. A little Jewish girl who dies at the age of 6 might be such a person.
Lionel : Yes there could be someone in invincible ignorance and these cases would only be known to God. For us humans they are theoretical and speculative cases. They are invisible in our reality. So they are not practical exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus ( Council of Florence 1442).
_______________________
Of these, Pope Pius IX in his 1863 encyclical, Quanto Conficiamur Moerore, wrote:
It is known to Us and to you that they who labor in invincible ignorance of our most holy religion and who, zealously keeping the natural law and its precepts engraved in the hearts of all by God, and being ready to obey God, live an honest and upright life, can, by the operating power of divine light and grace, attain eternal life, since God ... will by no means suffer anyone to be punished with eternal torment who has not the guilt of deliberate sin.
Lionel: Yes and we cannot project this case of invincible ignorance as an exception for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS). It was known to Pope Pius IX that these are theoretical cases and not objective exceptions for the dogma EENS.That these are hypothetical cases is common sense. It was known through the centuries.
It was only in 1949 in the Letter of the Holy Office (CDF) that a mistake was made. It was assumed that invincible ignorance was a visible case.Bradley Eli makes this mistake. This is the common formation- error in the seminaries and universities all over the world.

As cited in Denzinger §1677, Pius IX adds:
But, the Catholic dogma that no one can be saved outside the Catholic Church is well known; and also that those who are obstinate toward the authority and definitions of the same Church, and who persistently separate themselves from the unity of the Church, and from the Roman Pontiff, the successor of Peter, to whom "the guardianship of the vine has been entrusted by the Savior," cannot obtain eternal salvation.
Lionel : The 1949 Letter of the Holy Office was placed in the Denzinger by the liberals. It was put there along with its objective mistake.
_______________________________
Vatican II repeats this admonition in Lumen Gentium §14: "Whosoever, therefore, knowing that the Catholic Church was made necessary by Christ, would refuse to enter or to remain in it, could not be saved. ... Not only shall they not be saved but they will be the more severely judged."
Lionel : Yes whoever knows and does not enter is oriented to Hell. But it does not mean that we know of any one in particular who will go to Heaven outside the Church, with invincible ignorance. All people in general need Catholic faith and the baptism of water for salvation (AG 7). All. Those who know and know who do not know need to accept Jesus in only the Catholic Church for salvation ( to avoid Hell ).
