(Resistance) Forty Years Ago

Forty Years Ago

Next November 21 will be the fortieth anniversary of the famous statement of Archbishop Lefebvre, dated November 21, 1974.
This great text is the fundamental charter of our fight.
It is useful to recall the context in which it was written. Bishop Tissier de Mallerais explains in his biography of Archbishop Lefebvre (505-506 p.).:
  After visiting Ecône two Belgian bishops sent by the Vatican (11-13 November), whose attitude and statements shocked the seminarians, Bishop leaves for Rome 16. "21, while he goes to one of the Congregations who was visiting, a Swiss guard, hitherto unmoved, addresses him sharply: "Bishop, do you still expect something from these people?". The same day, at Albano, Bishop wrote the text to be presented as "in terms more clear and definitive position of the seminary and the Brotherhood from the beginning, but, because of the amplification of the crisis."
In clearer terms: Monsignor clearly distinguishes "Catholic Rome" and "the Rome of neo-Modernist and neo-Protestant tendency," or put another way, the conciliar Rome Sustained confusion in this domain by the higher current. Fraternity, is not one of the main causes of the crisis rocking the Tradition?
Archbishop Lefebvre did not find stronger words to characterize the consequences of the conciliar reform: demolition, ruin, destruction, disappearance ... This reform is "completely poisoned", we can only oppose a 'categorical rejection ".
Much more adamant today, when the crisis was further amplified for forty years, and how: the new "law", the new "catechism", Assisi, false canonization destroyers Church potatoes, etc.
 So it is not a matter of giving the confession of the true faith and in reporting errors that oppose it. It can not be a matter of "grooming" reconcile with Rome, "the way it is", while there is not truly converted. Monsignor was stated on another occasion: "When we face the question of when there will be an agreement with Rome, my answer is simple: When Rome again crown our Lord Jesus Christ" (Flavigny Conference, December 1988).
It was on the feast of the Presentation of Our Lady Archbishop Lefebvre wrote his statement forty years ago. The faithful Virgin inspired this protest loyalty. We make it ours, and we ask our Queen of Heaven to keep us faithful to our last breath.

STATEMENT OF ARCHBISHOP LEFEBVRE 21 NOV 1974.

We adhere wholeheartedly, with all our soul, to Catholic Rome, Guardian of the Catholic faith and the necessary maintenance of the faith traditions, to eternal Rome, mistress of wisdom and truth.

Instead, we refused and we have always refused to follow the Rome of neo-modernist and neoprotestante trend is clearly stated in Vatican Council II and after all the reforms that came out of it.

All these reforms indeed contributed and still contribute to the destruction of the Church, to the ruin of the priesthood, the annihilation of Sacrifice and the Sacraments, to the disappearance of religious life, a naturalist and taught at universities Teilhardian , seminars, catechesis, teaching born of Liberalism and Protestantism, sometimes repeatedly condemned by the solemn magisterium of the Church.

No authority, not even the highest in the hierarchy, can constrain us to abandon or diminish our clearly expressed and professed by the Church's Magisterium for nineteen centuries Catholic faith.

"If it were to happen, says Paul, that we, or an angel from heaven should teach something of what I have taught, other than let him be anathema" (Gal. 1: 8).
Is this not perhaps what the Holy Father says to us today? And if a certain contradiction is manifest in his words and in his actions and in the actions of the departments, then we choose what has always been taught and we turn a deaf ear to the destructive developments of the Church.

Unable to profoundly change the "lex orandi" unmodified "lex credendi". A new mass corresponding new catechism, the new priesthood, new seminaries, new universities, Charismatic, Pentecostal Church, all opposed to orthodoxy and always teaching things. You having this reform born of liberalism, modernism is totally poisoned; departure from heresy and results in heresy, even if all your acts are not formally heretical. It is therefore impossible for any conscientious and faithful Catholic to adopt this reform and submit to it in any way whatever. The only attitude of fidelity to the Church and to Catholic doctrine, for our salvation, is the categorical refusal to accept the Reformation.

That is why no rebellion, no bitterness, no resentment, continued our work priestly formation under the star always teaching, persuaded that we can not provide greater service to the Holy Catholic Church, the Supreme Pontiff and the generations future.

That's why we stick firmly to everything that has been believed and practiced regarding faith, morals, worship, teaching catechism, formation of the priest, the institution of the Church, the Church always and coded in books appeared before the Modernist influence of the Council, hoping that the true light of Tradition dissipates the darkness obscuring the sky of eternal Rome.

And by doing this, by the grace of God, the help of the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. Pius X, we are convinced to remain faithful to the Roman Catholic Church, all the successors of Peter, and to be the " Domini nostri fideles dispensers of the mysteries Jesu Christi in Spiritu Sancto. " Amen.
