Likewise dearest Catherine! Well said :)
As well as the proper response which you have given is also the correct advice which Sister Lucia also gave; Advice in this crisis both of the Church and the SSPX, advice for all of us when faced with these constant things we read on the internet or hear from friends etc:
That's possible, but my question is what could make Greg allow someone like Charles and Suzanne stay on his forum?
People over on IA have conveniently forgotten the fact that Charles called for the public execution-murder of Bishop Fellay and not only was he not banned but his sick behavior was encouraged by Sarto.
I've not understood anything over there in many months.
I was hoping the problems would go away after the announcements that there would definitely be no deal with Rome. Looks like that is not the case. I would think that folks on both sides (both of the issue, and the collar) who profess to be Catholic would show more charity.
This sermon fits here because too many on both sides have lost sight of the most important reason of why we are here.
If there are those who believe that Bishop Fellay has "fallen among the robbers"(and yes I believe myself in some ways he has) then the question becomes, "what has been your reaction"?
Will we be like the "high priests" who walk by and do nothing? Will we be like those who seeing someone overcome by the robbers and thieves, stop only to kick him? Or will our response be, here let me help you up?
If the men, the priests and bishops of the SSPX have been tested in these past many months (even the last few years) is it so far fetched to think that God will not stop there? Is it so far fetched to think we will also be tested?
And how will we show ourselves? What have we learned from all the years of being fed the beautiful Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist and the forgiving Sacrament of Confession?
I don't believe it is right to walk away from the work of the Archbishop nor do I think those are right who only see fit ti attack Bishop Fellay who himself has clearly been attacked (on a spiritual level).
My point is how do we stand and fight? The way we have been taught to stand and fight. With faith and confidence and turning our sights to Mary who assures us"Only I can help you". Pick up the weapon of our day-the rosary- and fight.
That is how battles are won. That is how crisis' are overcome, that is how those who have fallen among robbers are brought back.
There are those who are placing their trust in men. Placing their trust that Bishop Williamson will save the day...Fr Pfeiffer, Fr. Chazal and so on.
They will not save the day.
You will, by doing exactly what Our Lady said to do.
That is how the SSPX will overcome the evils which have clearly befallen it.
I agree with Petrus, DM. You hit the nail on the head.
Thank you for including that link to Fr. Libietis' sermon. It was very sobering but very good. I especially enjoyed his explanation of the symbolism in the parable of the Good Samaritan.
And as yesterday was the feast of the Most Holy Rosary with the memory of the Battle of Lepanto:
"My point is how do we stand and fight? The way we have been taught to stand and fight. With faith and confidence and turning our sights to Mary who assures us"Only I can help you". Pick up the weapon of our day-the rosary- and fight.
That is how battles are won. That is how crisis' are overcome, that is how those who have fallen among robbers are brought back."
Oh how we need to pray for our clergy and for each other! All of us are so fragile and vulnerable, without Mary we would be lost!
It is hardly to believe, that such people can call themselves a friend of FSSPX.
