Pope
Francis in his latest statement on all religions being paths to God is rejecting Vatican
Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church which state there is
exclusive salvation in only the Catholic Church. While we know that
hypothetical and invisible cases of LG 8,14,15,16,UR 3, NA 2, GS 22 etc in
Vatican Council II do not contradict the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla sales (
Council of Florence 1442), Ad Gentes 7 ( all need faith and baptism for
salvation. All) and the Catechism of the Catholic Church ( 846-outside the
Catholic Church there is no salvation, 845-God the Father wants all people to
be united in the Catholic Church. The Church is like the only Ark of Noah that
saves in the flood).
Pope
Francis is also rejecting the Athanasius Creed which says everyone needs to be
Catholic for salvation from Hell. He is also putting aside all the Catechisms. It indicates that there is a Hell and that people are going there.
This
is a break with the Apostles, the Church Fathers and the Magisterium of the Middle
Ages.
We
have to choose between, for example, Pope Pius X or Pope Francis - one of the two are in heresy and schism. - Lionel Andrades
