Zollitsch said that Christ "did not die for the sins of the people as if God had provided a sacrificial offering, like a scapegoat."GERMAN LIBERATION THEOLOGY
Instead, Jesus had offered only "solidarity" with the poor and suffering. Zollitsch said "that is this great perspective, this tremendous solidarity."
The interviewer asked, "You would now no longer describe it in such a way that God gave his own son, because we humans were so sinful? You would no longer describe it like this?"
Monsignor Zollitsch responded, "No."
Sounds a lot like Obama's BLACK LIBERATION THEOLOGY
Something tells me that he’ll be getting a call from the Pope on this one.
Well, that's mildly encouraging news about the German episcopate.
And the authority for this proclamation comes from where?
Me thinks he never read the bible.
Can he be excommunicated for this?
I hope there is someone in the Vatican who speaks German.
The Baltimore Catechism which at one time was required to be memorized, explained and essays written.
Alas, you take that away and you get heretics like this nut job. Soory, but whatever title he may have, he is NOT Catholic.
Objection: assuming facts not in evidence: "...one more..."
Hmmm, I think I’ll take God’s word on Christs purpose over the good Arch-Bishops. I think he needs to go look up the word propitiation.
It really is sad that entire churches have pastors, preachers, priests, deacons, what have you that are leading them this far astray.
LOL! Do you think Joe Ratzinger has forgotten already?
I spend time going over much of the Catechism with my 8th grade students, as well as the writings of St. Thomas Acquinas.
Maybe he'd like to sit in on our classes. ; )
” Zollitsch, known for his liberal views?”
“liberal?”
Since when is a lie considered a “liberal view?”
Oh, excuse me, I forgot we’re living in a Leftist world.
The bible warns us that there will be evil men even in the church who will pervert his words. I’d think this is a shinning example of that.
This is correct, if you take it that he was referring to ALL The PEOPLE - or ALL MANKIND. If one does, one must believe that ALL MANKIND is saved, because the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ from the cross, SAVES ABSOLUTELY and ASSUREDLY; IT NEVER FAILS.
When Monsignor Zollitsch said that Christ "did not die for the sins of the people as if God had provided a sacrificial offering, like a scapegoat."
If you take this as "His people" rather than "the people" then He is utterly in the wrong. And from his other comments, my belief is that he has repudiated his faith and should undergo church discipline; most definitely a removal from his position.
an Archbishop who does not know a basic Church teaching that we learned from our parents and Sister Helen Ann in grade school. Pathetic.
Paging our Holy Father. Check out the situation in your Homeland. Ready, Aim, FIRE!!!!!!
