Francis Synodality: Priest Punished for Telling the Truth

Theologian, Father Tullio Rotondo, 56, has been "suspended" for publishing a 1,300-page scholarly analysis entitled Betrayal of Sound Doctrine through Amoris Laetitia (June 2022).

Rotondo, a lawyer with degrees in moral and dogmatic theology, refused to retract his book when asked to do so by Isernia-Venafro Bishop Camillo Cibotti. Cibotti therefore punished him in February for alleged “disobedience to the proper ordinary.”

The book's preface was written by Professor John Rist, a world-renowned British scholar of classical philosophy who was banned from all pontifical universities in Rome in 2019 for his scholarly work critical of Francis.

Rist told LifeSiteNews.com (May 1) that Rotondo's suspension was “wholly unjust,” adding that Rotondo was punished for expounding perennial Catholic moral theology.

Rotondo himself said that he is going through a “very happy time in my life,” adding that he is “glad to be able to suffer something with Christ and for Christ, for His truth.”

Don Tullio Rotondo, an Italian Catholic priest, has been suspended by his bishop for publishing a book against Pope Francis’s errors as contained in his 2016 post-synodal exhortation Amoris Laetitia.

Just like St. Paul rebuked St. Peter at the first church council. However, I don't think the worldly "humble" pope will ever take correction.

Suspension in this pontificate is becoming akin to being elevated in the Faith ranks as a monsignor, bishop, etc. May God keep him strong and courageous in the Faith.

Saint Peter and the apostles taught us that: We must obey God rather than men.
We cannot, in the name of false servile obedience, obey Bergoglio's heresies or any of the Bergoglio heretics.

Angie W.

Obeying Bergoglio who openly defies God's Natural Law is not obedience but disobedience. Obeying Bergoglio in his rebellion against God is tantamount to obeying the devil.

Since Francis is not a member of the Church, we should not pay attention to him in the first place.
FRANCIS EXCOMMUNICATED IN 1999

Angie W.

Exactly, Bergoglio speaks to his followers who follow him to eternal perdition.

A church-historically untried situation: Religious communities, bishops and individual priests are reprimanded by church "legal law" because of their loyalty to the gospel. I think Archbishop Lefebvre showed us how to deal with this.

Adrien

Another time and circumstances. Also, Marcel Lefebvre ended up in a schism on the wrong side.

Adrien

Instead some bishops should make a small reunion but with a solemn style, and declare Francis antipope to show the way to the other good bishops, as well as the whole Church.

Klaus Elmar Müller

@Adrien Lefebvre was never in schism; the excommunication (repealed by Benedict XVI) was invalid, because the Archbishop acted out of an emergency that his episcopal ordinations justified or at least excused by canon law. But anyone who denies the apparent holder of the Cathedra of Peter the right to be pope is automatically excommunicated. Christ himself must fulfill his promise from Matthew 16:18.

Adrien

Are you suggesting that Francis is the apparent holder of the Petrine Ministry?
Francis is not the leader of the Church of which he is not a member, having nothing more than his white disguise. You see, God does not grant a seat in His Church to every men wearing the cloth.
2 Corinthians 11:13-15 For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.
Also, do you believe the Words of the New Testament, concerning the coming of the main False Prophet, will never be fulfilled?
Revelation 13:11-14, 19:20, 20:10.
Matthew 16:18 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. Hades could mean Hell or death.
The ‘’Will not prevail’’, in the light of the rest of the Bible, can only mean ‘’Will not prevail completely against the Church’’ or ‘’The gates of Hades won’t be able to annihilate the Church completely’’.
I understand that you, Klaus Elmar Müller, and others think that this verse prevents the Church of being persecuted by an unprecedented type of impostor, but God can allow this situation as a punishment for the world and to put our faith to the test. We can not say that the Church won’t undergo terrible events and everything that is written will happen.
2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion* comes first… *(Defection, apostasy, revolt, defection from truth).
Matthew 24:10 At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another…
Revelation 13:7 (the first beast) Then it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them… (alternate translation: to wage war against the Saints and to defeat them).
So, the Saints will be defeated but the Church will at least exist somewhere, surely well-hidden (Matthew 24:15-16) and, probably in small number (Luke 18:8).
