In an attempt to change the Church’s teaching on marriage or ordination of women, the proponents of the Synod invoke an alleged “direct communication between the Holy Spirit and Synod participants,” Cardinal Müller continued.
“But anyone who, by appealing to personal and collective inspiration from the Holy Spirit, seeks to reconcile the teaching of the Church with an ideology hostile to revelation and with the tyranny of relativism is guilty in various ways of a ‘sin against the Holy Spirit’ (Matt. 12:31; Mark 3:29; Luke 12:10),” the German cardinal added.
