Francis: Synod Document Is "New Feature" in Exercise of Papal Authority

Francis has today issued a Nota about the ex-synod. It contains the usual word salad about "enlightenment by the Holy Spirit" and the "fruits of a journey".

Then Francis proclaims: "The Final Document participates in the ordinary Magisterium of the Successor of Peter, and as such I ask that it be accepted."

He adds that "this exercise of papal teaching has new features" but is in line with his own previous statements.

This authoritative teaching is "not strictly normative" and its application "will require several mediations".

Francis encourages the bishops to go beyond existing Church laws and proceed "to the creative activation of new forms of ministry".

During future ad limina visits, each bishop will report on how and what he has implemented from the ex-synod's document.

Once a pope dies there is nothing more dead than a dead pope. As the citizens of Rome say: “Popes come, and popes go.”. The timeless teachings of Christ will endure long after this pope, as will the Church. He is a narcissist who believes that whatever he says on a fancy and a whim is greater than what all the saints have professed and believed through the centuries.

The chastisement is on the way - France has declared war against Russia - pray, pray, pray - and fast as much as you can. Stay under the protective Mantle of the Rosary and Our Lady's Scapular.

Poor Bergoglio is an egomaniac who ardently seeks to make humanity rebel against God and the Church. Woe to those who have joined Bergoglio's rebellion against God and who, like apostate angels, prefer to disobey God in order to obey this servant of the Antichrist!
Bergoglio: “I am a Sinner and am Fallible”
Christopher A. Ferrara May 7, 2016: “The Remnant” Archbishop Bruno Forte, hand-picked by Pope Bergoglio as Special Secretary for the two sessions of the False Synod, is a supremely arrogant man. For only supreme arrogance would explain his declared insertion into the interim report of the False Synod 2014 (with Francis’ approval) those infamous statements about “valuing” “homosexual orientation” and recognizing that “homosexual unions” can provide “valuable support for the life of couples” when they practice sodomy. In his supreme arrogance, Forte saw no problem in informing the attendees of the May 3 press conference on Amoris Laetitia that during the Synod, Francis made a joke (“una battuta”) that “if we speak explicitly about communion for the divorced and remarried we will make a tremendous mess.” So Francis told Bruno, “We will not speak about this openly; do it in such a way that the premises are there, then I will draw the conclusions.” “Typical of a Jesuit,” Monsignor Forte joked.

So lay people at the synod can help determine what is authentic Church teaching? That's a new one.

The ordinary magisterium of today cannot contradict the ordinary magisterium of yesterday. If not, we follow the old. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” Book of Hebrews.

This was the globalist plan all along - DESTROY the papal office and replace it with a "synodal path" that can be easily manipulated to get the results desired by the interlopers. Why do you think Francis keeps yammering about making changes that are irreversible?

What does any of this even mean? It makes no sense whatsoever. God, in Your mercies, help us. 🥺😫😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

And does this synod not wish to declare that Francis is a public heretic and apostate who must immediately get out of the Vatican? 🤔 Such a document of the synod would have some weight. Otherwise it is pure garbage.

This bit of news seems to line up appropriately with yesterday's Gospel reading for the Last Sunday after Pentecost. Here's an excerpt: "Then if any man shall say to you: Lo, here is Christ, or there; do not believe him: for there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect."
