***What we all need most is a new reformation that once again is struck by the wonder of a gospel that is by grace alone, through faith alone, because of Christ aloneto the glory of God alone. We pray earnestly for a widespread rediscovery of this heavenly message prophesied by the prophets, incarnated in Christ, and proclaimed by his apostles. Only in that prayer can we anticipate a fuller unity for the followers of Jesus Christ.***
AMEN.
Ratzinger is concerned with the spread of millennial-eschatological sects
is in part a reaction against the poor preaching and teaching in the churches,
but thinks that the apocalyptic prophecies delivered by Mary at Fatima can
be a good alternative to such sects (118).Sola scriptura has led to a free church ecclesiology.
For the modern man in the street, the most obvious concept of the Church
is what technically one would call Congregationalist or Free Church (156-7).
Thoughts?

Christ also established His Authority of the church through Peter the Rock, who was the first Pope.
Still, as long as Protestants accept Christ as their Lord and Savior for their salvation, I don't think the current Pope has problems with them at all.
