US Cardinal, Jesus Was "Reborn in Grace” – What?

Newark Cardinal Joseph Tobin claimed on Twitter (January 13) that during his baptism "Christ stood with all of us sinners seeking redemption” and that “the sinless Redeemer was reborn in grace”.

Tobin should have read Saint Augustine (+430) who explains that Christ was baptized "not because he had need to be cleansed" but by the contact of his flesh the waters were purified and received the power of cleansing.

Therefore, according to the Catechism of Trent, Christ instituted through his baptism the sacrament of baptism and gave to the water the power of sanctifying.

Poor ToeBend. He’s no Saint Augustine.

Read recently (and I paraphrase) that the heirarchy of the West, all the way to Rome are dumb as a box of rocks.

These pointy hats quit learning and knowing Truth decades ago, otherwise Vatican II would have never come to be, but instead it did, belched up by the galactically stupid, the malicious, the all together bored brandy sniffers, who dare now sputter out any remark and declare it “progress” and doctrine. Yikes!

Arianism raising its hydra-like head once again.

Old heresies never die. They just come back as “a new paradigm.”

They’re too busy with global warming to worry about an insignificant thing like theology.

Bishops and Twitter are not a good combination.
