Addressing members of the Pontifical Liturgical Institute of Sant'Anselmo
in the Vatican on Saturday, Pope Francis noted that their meeting, celebrating
60 years since the institution’s foundation, “came about as a response to
the growing need of the People of God to live and participate more intensely in
the liturgical life of the Church”. He noted that their institution's
dedication to the study of the liturgy is well recognised and that experts that
were trained in their classrooms promote the liturgical life of many dioceses
in very different cultural contexts...
Active participation in liturgical life
Speaking, firstly, of the formation to live and promote active
participation in liturgical life, Pope Francis noted that it is an aspect that
should encourage the members of the institution to “foster, as the Council
wished, this fundamental dimension of Christian life”. (Pope Francis is referring to Vatican
Council
II interpreted with the False
and
not Rational Premise.)
He explained that here, the key is “to educate people to enter into the
spirit of the liturgy” and that in order to do this “it is necessary to be
imbued with this spirit….to feel its mystery, with an ever-new wonder”.
(He
means a new spirit, a
liberal
spirit that comes from Vatican
Council
II interpreted with the False
Premise
which he has officially approved
in
Traditonis Custode )
The liturgy is not something you possess, continued the Pope, but rather,
it is learned and celebrated, through active participation “to the extent that
one enters into its spirit”. It is neither a question of rites, but rather the
mystery of Christ, who once and for all revealed and fulfilled the sacred, the
sacrifice and the priesthood: Worship in spirit and in truth. “Only in this way
can participation translate into a greater sense of the Church,
( He means a sense of the Church according to the New Theology created with the False Premise and not the Church according to Vatican Council II interpreted with the Rational Premise which would not contradict infallible teachings of the Creeds
interpreted rationally
)
which makes us live evangelically in every time and in every circumstance”,
said the Pope.
Growing in ecclesial communion
Speaking then of the second point, the institution's dedication to
liturgical study on the part of both professors and students,
“also makes you grow in ecclesial communion”,
(Like Pope Benedict he is suggesting that ecclesial communion depends upon accepting and following Vatican Council II with theIrrational Premise which creates a break with Feeneyite extra ecclesiam nulla salus, which both popes reject ) noted the Pope. He explained that giving glory to God in the liturgy finds its counterpart “in love of neighbour, in the commitment to live as brothers and sisters in everyday situations, in the community in which we find ourselves, with its merits and limitations”.
Each celebration ends with mission
The Pope then turned to the third and final aspect, that every liturgical
celebration always ends with mission. “What we live and celebrate leads us to
go out to meet others, to meet the world around us, to meet the joys and needs
of so many who perhaps live without knowing the gift of God”, said the Pope.
Genuine liturgical life, especially the Eucharist, always impels us to charity,
“which is above all openness and attention to others”, he added, stressing that
this dimension, then, “opens us to dialogue, to encounter, to the ecumenical
spirit, to welcome”.(
This has not be done with Vatican Council II interpreted with the Rational
Premise, which has no practical exceptions for the Athanasius Creed and the
Syllabus of Errors of Pope Pius IX )
Faith in the mystery
Pope Francis then reiterated the importance of liturgical life and the
study of it leading to “greater ecclesial unity”, stressing that “the liturgy
must be studied while remaining faithful to this mystery”...( He means interpret the Councils,Creeds and
Catechism
to
create a false and calculated break with
the
past exclusive ecclesiology and support
the common liberalism in the Church
). -Lionel Andrades
