The unrepentant sinner who takes Holy Communion calls down judgment upon himself.
Would you like a return of the Inquisition?
The Church can only teach.
“The unrepentant sinner who takes Holy Communion calls down judgment upon himself. . . The Church can only teach.”
True. The Pope and priests will not pass judgment and they will not determine the place and time. They’ve delivered the teaching and those without souls choose not to listen. On the judgment day they will be held accountable and there will be no second chance.
I'm sure there are people who believe that with a blessed Host in addition to a crossroads at midnight they could learn to play a premier Blues guitar. So, accomodate them as well. Let anyone who asks have a blessed Host and give it a shot.
Lorzy, the Blues sho needs all the help it can get as high yella Bluegrass passes itself off as Blues these days.
“The Church can only teach.”
Disagree, sorry. The Church can and should take measures as set forth in Canon Law, the GIRM, the CCC, and elsewhere, to ensure orthodoxy.
