[Catholic Caucus] Burke: Often Mentioned "Francis Magisterium" Is Not The Magisterium

A soon-to-be-published “Catechism of the Catholic Church with Theological Commentary,” edited by Curia Archbishop Rino Fisichella, will "not have the authority” of the 1994 Catechism, said Cardinal Raymond Burke.

He told TheWandererPress.com (January 8) that the current Catechism “will continue to be the authoritative text" while "whatever authority the new edition has, will depend on the correctness of its fidelity to doctrine.”

Burke linked the continuing doctrinal and moral confusion in the Church to the 4th century Arian heresy, pointing out that, at that time, St Athanasius defended Christ's divinity at the cost of great suffering. He was exiled and excommunicated by Pope Liberius for “the sake of peace.”

We need to fight for the truth today as Athanasius did then, adding that a so called “'Francis magisterium'” that is "'completely new'" is “not the magisterium.”

Quotes from Archbishop Marcel LeFebvre

“In the Church, law and jurisdiction are at the service of the Faith, the primary reason for the Church. There is no law, no jurisdiction which can impose on us a lessening of our Faith.

”We accept this jurisdiction and this law when they are at the service of the Faith. But on what basis can they be judged? Tradition, the Faith for 2,000 years. Every Catholic can and must resist anyone in the Church who lays his hands on his Faith, the Faith of the eternal Church, relying on his childhood catechism.“
