It is clear that humans are not an angel, but from soul and body exists. Therefore the rites of the old persons fair are so important - the general-upper the Petrusbruderschaft explained.

(, Wigratzbad kreuz.net) on past 18 July those celebrated priest brother shank pc. Petrus the 18. Anniversary of their establishment.

With the solemn office for high the freshly selected general-upper Pater John mountain before the met members of the general chapter preached.

The portal to the catholic world of thought, operated by priests of the Petrusbruderschaft, published the lecture text in the wording.

In its lecture Pater mountain spoke over „many obstacles “with the daily work of the priests of the Petrusbruderschaft and mentioned three examples.

The general-upper referred first to places, where it is not permitted to read the holy fair in the delivered rite.

Furthermore it gives resistance on the part of such, which felt endangered by the existence of the Petrusbruderschaft.

Finally give it naturally also to weaknesses inside the community.

The new general-upper warned in its lecture to regard such problems from a purely natural aspect. This view would ignore the large role, which had entrusted planning the Petrusbruderschaft:

„We should be proud on our Institut and its role in the church. “

This pride does not mean that the Petrusbruderschaft understands itself as rescue of the church or something like. The many own weaknesses should always protect those to brother shank to purge to such a mistake.

He speaks rather of a pride, which einflößt the confidence and the courage to continue in complete loyalty to the own establishment and identity.

The general-upper mentioned also the three large columns in the charisma its brother shank.

The first column is that the Petrusbruderschaft is an establishment in the heart of the church - under and with the Pope.

„Years after the establishment I do not think eighteen that we recognize the courage and the faith of our founders sufficient, who were called like Abraham to set their homeland too left and all confidence into God and its church. “

It is difficult to introduce itself how heavy it was for the founders the brother shank to act against the decisions of archbishop Marcel Lefebvre († 1991).

The archbishop was for it - in a world, which was in the crisis - like a father.

With the second column of the Petrusbruderschaft act it around the loyalty to a theology, which bases on the theories of the holy one Thomas's von Aquin.

It develops on always-lasting philosophy - on philosophia perennis -.

This theology is presented today at the church faculties as one under many or - still more badly - as something overhauling. Represent it the appropriate answer to the modernism, which still threatens the church.

As the third column general-upper mountain called the grace to celebrate and maintain the fair in the delivered rite. That is the outstanding characteristic of the Petrusbruderschaft.

„These rites are so important, because it is not evident that humans are not an angel, pure spirit, but of soul and body consists. “

This truth can be summarized in a sentence: „Actions speak louder than words. “

Therefore do not only need humans - to work satisfactorily around itself in a faithless world - katechetische instructions, but also rites, which clarify the truths, which become present in the holy fair: the victim of Christ on the altar and its presence in the Eucharist.

DoctorSubtilis: @statcrux

Pedro de Luna was not Benedikt XII. (a theologian as authors of „Benedictus the Deus “to know should), but Benedikt XIII. The only point for comparison to Lefebvre is the insulating position of its protest. Otherwise the state of affairs was probably a quite different…

stat crux: Benedikt

According to my estimation only 0.15 parts per thousand of the catholics have a problem with „Dignitatis humanae “. Already cardinal Luciani (Johannes Paul I.) asked 1978 in a venezianischen newspaper article: Didn't Lefebvre read the title of the document? (The freedom of religion of DH is not relativism, but a correction kath. of the society teachings, the state church relationship.) And then it compared that the old archbishop with Pedro de Luna, the Gegenpapst Benedikt XII.: In the time after the council of Konstanz this entrenched itself with two cardinals and unites servants on a castle with Valencia and hurled up to its death into the world some Anathema and spell bulls, although he has no more supporters outside of the Burgmauern. „Rome must bekehren itself to me! “That demanded, otherwise de Luna except Lefebvre only nobody. (Refrained from okkulten Sedisvakantisten.) The more pleasing that the Petrusbruderschaft filters and improves the entitled part in the work of the integralists.

The picture of the article shows the fair at the Josefstag in the Basilika in Lindau at the Bodensee (about 20 km von Wigratzbad removes). Wigratzbad has unfortunately no so beautiful churches…

Adrian: Sühnekirche Wigratzbad

Also this church is unknown to me. It would be beautiful, if one would tear these sheet metal off Sühnekirche, in order to be able to build finally a beautiful baroque church. But who is to pay that? When the Sühnekirche was planned, beautiful structural drawings were appropriate, for a mad church on the bishop table of Augsburg. First edition was that the church had to be built by donations, the second edition of the bishop was it that it would select the architect and the third edition was it that one could reduce the church fast and simply again. Therefore sheet metal, whatever has still leaky places, with rains drips it here and there purely. Unfortunate, harm…

catharina: Wigratzbad…

… seems quite beautiful churches to have.

Is there unfortunately not at all been noticeable to me…

Benedikt: @ galas

It has also the disputed texts to the religion
freedom and to the Ökumenismus accepts?

A document council is not disputed thereby which 0.3 parts per thousand of the catholics a problem with it have.
