Yet on December 13-14 the Secretary General of the Council of Ecumenical churches, will speak and reject the past theology of the Church on salvation and ecumenism.Pastor Olav Fykse Tveit will be speaking as part of the course on the new ecumenism, titled Ut Unum Sint, which re-inteprets magisterial documents with a false 'premise to create a rupture with Tradition and in particular the old ecumenism of the Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX.
Pastor Tveit's office is approved by the World Council of Churches and the Vatican.It supports Leftist values.
Other professors too will re-interpret Vatican Council II irrationally. For example they will assume that UR 3 refers to known Christians saved outside the Church in the present times.They become exceptions to the old exclusive ecclesiology of the Catholic Church.
So there will not be a call for conversion, into the Catholic Church, for salvation.
UR 3 refers to a hypothetical case. There is no known person saved outside the Church ' since they are in imperfect communion with the Church' or 'baptised in Christ'.
We do not know any one saved outside the Church who has been 'justified by faith in Baptism' and ' are members of Christ's body' and who ' have a right to be called Christian, and so are correctly accepted as brothers by the children of the Catholic Church'. If any one is saved as such it would only be known to God. So there are no exceptions to the general requirement for salvation, 'faith and the baptism of water' in the Catholic Church.
Even though 'many of the significant elements and endowments which together go to build up and give life to the Church itself, can exist outside the visible boundaries of the Catholic Church' we do not and cannot know any one saved outside the Catholic Church or in other Christian communities, to contradict the strict interpretation of the dogma EENS.
We can hope that their liturgical actions can give access to salvation but cannot postulate it in particular cases.The Council also mentions the necessity of Catholic faith for salvation.So again the professors must not suggest that there are practical exceptions to the past ecumenism. There are none mentioned in Vatican Council II and none known in real life.
The professors cannot refer to 'the mystery of salvation' and ignore the orthodox passages in Unitatis Redintigratio which support the past ecumenism of return.
So without using the false premise there would be nothing in the Council-text, including Unitatis Redintigratio to contradict extra ecclesia nulla salus as it was known to the missionaries in the 16th century.-Lionel Andrades
