Not if a million dollars was included would I even consider participating in this disgusting blasphemous evil ecumenical "commemoration" of the excommunicated heretic Martin Luther who was tool of Satan in dividing the Church.

Let him be anathema!

EXSURGE DOMINE
Condemning The Errors Of Martin Luther
Pope Leo X
Bull issued June 15, 1520

Quote (in part): "With the advice and consent of these our venerable brothers, with mature deliberation on each and every one of the above theses, and by the authority of almighty God, the blessed Apostles Peter and Paul, and our own authority, we condemn, reprobate, and reject completely each of these theses or errors as either heretical, scandalous, false, offensive to pious ears or seductive of simple minds, and against Catholic truth. By listing them, we decree and declare that all the faithful of both sexes must regard them as condemned, reprobated, and rejected….We restrain all in the virtue of holy obedience and under the penalty of an automatic major excommunication....
Moreover, because the preceding errors and many others are contained in the books or writings of Martin Luther, we likewise condemn, reprobate, and reject completely the books and all the writings and sermons of the said Martin, whether in Latin or any other language, containing the said errors or any one of them; and we wish them to be regarded as utterly condemned, reprobated, and rejected. We forbid each and every one of the faithful of either sex, in virtue of holy obedience and under the above penalties to be incurred automatically, to read, assert, preach, praise, print, publish, or defend them. They will incur these penalties if they presume to uphold them in any way, personally or through another or others, directly or indirectly, tacitly or explicitly, publicly or occultly, either in their own homes or in other public or private places.
Indeed immediately after the publication of this letter these works, wherever they may be, shall be sought out carefully by the ordinaries and others [ecclesiastics and regulars], and under each and every one of the above penalties shall be burned publicly and solemnly in the presence of the clerics and people." [end]

Decet Romanum Pontificem
Papal Bull on the Condemnation and Excommunication of Martin Luther, the Heretic, and his Followers, January 3, 1521



Quote (in part): "II We have been informed that after this previous missive had been exhibited in public and the interval or intervals it prescribed had elapsed [60 days]—and we hereby give solemn notice to all faithful Christians that these intervals have and are elapsed—many of those who had followed the errors of Martin took cognisance of our missive and its warnings and injunctions; the spirit of a saner counsel brought them back to themselves, they confessed their errors and abjured the heresy at our instance, and by returning to the true Catholic faith obtained the blessing of absolution with which the self-same messengers had been empowered; and in several states and localities of the said Germany the books and writings of the said Martin were publicly burned, as we had enjoined.
Nevertheless Martin himself—and it gives us grievous sorrow and perplexity to say this—the slave of a depraved mind, has scorned to revoke his errors within the prescribed interval and to send us word of such revocation, or to come to us himself; nay, like a stone of stumbling, he has feared not to write and preach worse things than before against us and this Holy See and the Catholic faith, and to lead others on to do the same.
He has now been declared a heretic; and so also others, whatever their authority and rank, who have cared nought of their own salvation but publicly and in all men's eyes become followers of Martin's pernicious and heretical sect, and given him openly and publicly their help, counsel and favour, encouraging him in their midst in his disobedience and obstinacy, or hindering the publication of our said missive: such men have incurred the punishments set out in that missive, and are to be treated rightfully as heretics and avoided by all faithful Christians, as the Apostle says (Titus iii. 10-11).
III. Our purpose is that such men should rightfully be ranked with Martin and other accursed heretics and excommunicates, and that even as they have ranged themselves with the obstinacy in sinning of the said Martin, they shall likewise share his punishments and his name, by bearing with them everywhere the title "Lutheran" and the punishments it incurs.
Our previous instructions were so clear and so effectively publicised and we shall adhere so strictly to our present decrees and declarations, that they will lack no proof, warning or citation.
Our decrees which follow are passed against Martin and others who follow him in the obstinacy of his depraved and damnable purpose, as also against those who defend and protect him with a military bodyguard, and do not fear to support him with their own resources or in any other way, and have and do presume to offer and afford help, counsel and favour toward him. All their names, surnames and rank—however lofty and dazzling their dignity may be—we wish to be taken as included in these decrees with the same effect as if they were individually listed and could be so listed in their publication, which must be furthered with an energy to match their contents.
On all these we decree the sentences of excommunication, of anathema, of our perpetual condemnation and interdict; of privation of dignities, honours and property on them and their descendants, and of declared unfitness for such possessions; of the confiscation of their goods and of the crime of treason; and these and the other sentences, censures and punishments which are inflicted by canon law on heretics and are set out in our aforesaid missive, we decree to have fallen on all these men to their damnation." [end]


A damned heretic to be "commemorated" by Christ's Holy Catholic Church...?

What are the faithful to believe? What the Church taught for centuries...


 ...or what it is teaching today?



Oh what a difference a pope makes!

I'll stick with the authentic teachings of the Church that have been handed down for centuries.


In Christ and praying a meteor hits us before the Church officially participates in this scandalous diabolic evil event.

  1. Hi Julie
    Just thanking folks like YOU, 1P5, SCBear and a few others who state so clearly and unapologetically bravely what is going on. You give me hope and light the flame that is continually doused by the world. I remember watching the film "Luther" when it first came out and gushing to my in-laws how I had "misunderstood" the reformation until then....and me being the only Catholic in the family. God forgive me. If I had been stronger in my faith and more knowledgeable, I would have had such a different response! But I know now and will not fall for such deceptions now, please God.
    May you continue to educate the unlearned and eradicate the ignorance of those who who have ears to hear and eyes to see. God uses you to do that!
    Sincerely
    Nancy Brockhoff

  7. Wow,Julie!!The acidic vitriol practically leapt off the pages!It's as though they tried to outdo 'ol Luther in their haste to condemn his.I have no doubt that he gave Almighty God thanks that they didn't catch him;no doubt he would have suffered the same fate as Jan Hus:Burned to a crisp! WOW!!You Catholics sure are vicious and hateful!!!

  8. Ringo, First please work on your grammar or wording, your intent was very unclear until the last sentence. Not sure what you found vicious or hateful about anything written here other then your own tone/intent. It always amuses me when non-Catholics troll Catholic sites, my guess is there is some deep seeded need for self-justification that brings you here. Perhaps the truth you hold is not the full Truth which would explain your need to lash out.

  9. Hey,"Sensei Mitch"!...you are right,my mistake.What I meant to say was these papal"bulls"(what a wonderfully apt description!)practically outdid each other in their hateful,vicious,vitriolic condemnations.Is that better? It always amuses ME is the tried-and-true Roman Catholic blind spot:That in conversations like this,Martin Luther started The Reformation ALL.BY.HIMSELF;The Roman Catholic Church is entirely innocent and was unjustly attacked by Luther and his ilk.Honest Catholic historians of the period know better,but the average Catholic layman steeped in Catholic groupthink is woefully ignorant of the issues involved;the seeds of The Reformation was planted LOONG before Martin Luther came along.Your Church was so caught up in its own arrogance and spiritual tone-deafness that it REFUSED to address what it was caught up in,issues that is a matter of historical record.FYI,I was directed to this site by Julie@ConneticutCatholicCorner,so your accusation that I'm a troll is both erroneous and disrespectful,but sadly,not surprising.The two bulls that were posted serve to demonstrate how bent out of shape The Roman Catholic Church gets should ANYONE dare challenge the idea that they consider themselves in charge of Almighty God;as I said,I'm sure Luther gave eternal thanks that your church didn't capture him,as their lust for murder vis-a-vis Jan Hus among others,was well-documented.Don't kid yourself,Sensei Mitch,I'm very well versed in the history of the Roman Catholic Church,and it may surprise you to know that most of my information comes from honest Catholic historians,who don't waste time trying to whitewash,spin,or tweak and parse the vile,ugly and heinous deeds that have been perpetuated by this institution throughout the centuries.If you actually believe that Our Savior would found a religious institution like THIS,I can only pity you and give Almighty God eternal thanks that I am not part of it,Boniface VIII's crazed claims notwithstanding(in case you're confused,I'm referring to "Unam Sanctum")---And,in closing:The "Full Truth"Is Jesus the Christ,a truth that can be claimed by ALL Blood-bought,Spirit-Filled children/servant of Almighty God,whatever particular denominational construct they submit themselves to.Almighty God is in charge of that,NOT Roman Catholicism.I await your reply,if any...PEACE IN CHRIST, ALWAYS! 😊😊😊
