I have attended a class in ecclesiology of this Dominican priest at the University of St. Thomas Aquinas, Rome. Fr. Robert Christian OP will be teaching the new batch of students from next month.
He contradicts the Creed. We pray in the Creed 'I believe in one baptism for the forgiveness of sin.' This is a core teaching. The baptism of water is needed to remove Original Sin. We do not know any one on earth who does not need the baptism of water to remove Original sin. We do not know any case of implicit baptism of desire or someone saved in invincible ignorance.
Fr. Christian teaches that Fr. Leonard Feeney was excommunicated for saying everyone needs to be a visible member of the Church. i.e. everyone need the baptism of water and Catholic Faith for salvation.
He rejected the core teaching may be out of ignorance here.
Also this Dominican priest who has been teaching at the Angelicum for many years does not see that the Archbishop of Boston was in heresy when he assumed those saved in invincible ignorance and the baptism of desire are not implicit but explicitly known to us. They contradict he assumes Fr. Leonard Feeney and the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
CDF please clarify this error of the Dominicans, SSPX and thousands of seminarians and other religious.
This priest should be teaching the students that all Muslims, Jews and other non Catholics are oriented to Hell unless they convert into Catholic Church.Since the ordinary mans of salvation is Catholic Faith and the baptism of water (AG 7.LG 14).
He rejects a core teaching in the Creed. He rejects the ex cathedra dogma extra eccleisam nulla salus also Vatican Council II. This is a rejection of post Vatican Council II Magisterial documents like Dominus Iesus 20, CCC 846 etc.
The Dominicans, including Fr. Christian have canonical status even though they do not affirm this core teaching as did Fr. Leonard Feeney.
Is an SSPX priest permitted to say in public like Fr. Leonard Feeney that every non Catholic needs to enter to enter the Church for salvation and there are no known persons saved with the baptism of desire or in invincible ignorance? So those saved implicitly with the baptism of desire etc are not exceptions to the dogma?
For Fr. Robert Christian those who know about the Church only and do not enter are oriented to Hell (Vatican Council II). It is Jesus who decides who ‘knows’ and who is invincible ignorance. The ordinary means of salvation for all according to Vatican Council II is Catholic Faith and the baptism of water (LG 14,AG 7).
I will send this blog post to the Angelicum and but I do not expect any answer.
