The rights of girls and Catholic
lay faithful to carry out certain roles on the altar are not prescribed as
"rights" within the Church, according to the Church's top legal authority,
Archbishop Raymond Burke. The statement came in a clarification he wrote about
the consequences of the reintroduction of the Latin Rite Mass by Pope Benedict.
The Catholic Church of Germany recently printed a commentary on the
application of Benedict XVI's 2007 motu proprio, Summorum Pontificum,
which made Pope St. Pius V's Latin Rite Mass more widely available. In the
preface of the volume, printed for the third anniversary of the motu proprio,
Archbishop Raymond Burke clarified some confusion about the legislation's
practical use.
Archbishop Burke is the prefect of the Apostolic
Signatura, which is often described as the supreme court of the Catholic Church.
According to Vatican Radio, the archbishop explained in the preface that due
to the motu proprio's papal origins, it is not just an act of legislation
brought about as a "favor" to a specific group for the celebration of the
extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, the Mass in Latin, but one that applies to
the entire Church.
Archbishop Burke wrote, "it is about a law whose
finality is the protection and promotion of the life of all the mystical body of
Christ and the maximum expression of this life, that is to say, the Sacred
Liturgy."
It implies an obligation of the Church "to preserve liturgical
tradition and maintain the legitimate celebration of both forms of the Roman
Rite, that preceding the Second Vatican Council and that which followed it," he
said.
Archbishop Burke pointed out that the Holy Father himself explained
that for the communion of the Church in the past and the future, "universally
accepted uses of uninterrupted apostolic tradition" must be observed.
This, he he pointed out should be done "not only to avoid errors, but also to
transmit the integrity of the faith, so that the law of the prayer of the Church
might correspond to her law of faith."
The American archbishop went on to
point out that certain elements may need to be clarified in this regard. For
example, he wrote, among the "rights" of the baptized, assistance by
"persons of the feminine sex" at the altar is not included. Additionally,
serving as a lector or as an extraordinary distribution of communion is not a
right of the laity, he noted.
As such, out of respect for the
integrity of the liturgical discipline within the Roman Missal of 1962, these
more modern modifications are not observed in the extraordinary form.
This clarification comes just a week after L'Osservatore Romano writer
Lucetta Scaraffia published an article on the altar server pilgrimage to the
Vatican which drew thousands of boys and girls alike. She drew some attention as
she proposed that the introduction of girls into the position of serving at the
altar "meant the end of every attribution of impurity to their sex ... it meant
a different attention to the liturgy and an approach to the faith in bringing it
near to their very hearts."
Archbishop Burke clarified, however, that the
reality of the matter is that neither the presence of girls at the altar, nor
the participation of lay faithful "belong to the fundamental rights of the
baptized."
"Because of the fall in Babylon, many new languages were given because of the sin of Babylon. Therefore, as a member of one country, My children, with a universal language, you carried with you your own country's translation, and were you to visit abroad, you could enter upon any foreign edifice, Church of My Son, and feel comfortable and in one with the man, the priest, the one chosen by My Son to represent Him in His House.
"If you were, My child, to go from your United States to France, could you understand the words in French? But, My child, you would recognize the words in Latin and you would have your book with you to read in your American language, just as those in France could read in their French language, bringing upon the world a beautiful and common bond of language among all who have been given the grace to be called to the Roman Catholic Church of My Son.
"Do not leave My Son's Church though, My children, because they have taken this language from among you. You must wait and persevere and weep with My Son for this defilement by man." - Our Lady of the Roses, April 10, 1976
“You will not bring
about a conversion of those who are presently apostate by compromising your
Faith or changing the construction of the exterior lines of My Church; and by
that I mean the physical appearance and the manner in which you conduct the Holy
Sacrifice of the Mass.
“Many are giving My Body in a manner that can only be called blasphemy.
Many are accepting My Body in the Eucharist in a manner that defames the
Divinity, and also promotes unholiness, paganism, and impurity of heart and
actions during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.”
- Jesus, May 26, 1979
Our Lady of
the Roses Bayside messages
These messages came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at
Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
MASS IS
VALID
"Do not lose faith in My
Mass. It is valid. Man may distort, but it is valid, I say! When a
legally-ordained priest of the Roman Catholic Church conducts this Mass, it is
valid, I say!" - Jesus,
December 7, 1976
MOST
DISPLEASED
“I say unto you as your
Mother that the Eternal Father is most displeased by the manner in which you
conduct yourselves, O clergy, and also all laymen—the manner in which you
conduct yourselves during the Holy Sacrifice of My Son. Less and less respect
and honor is being given to the Eucharist.” - Our Lady,
July 25, 1979
DO NOT
ABANDON
"... Do not abandon My
Son's Churches throughout your world, My children. The Mass, the Holy Sacrifice,
is still valid.
"Do not judge your Church, My children, by the standards of man, for a
legally-ordained priest, a man who has been legally ordained, will be used by
the Eternal Father, through the Spirit, to bring to you My Son, His Body and His
Blood, which He is shedding in sorrow now for you!" - Our Lady,
August 5, 1976
MAINTAIN
THE PAPACY
“I ask you again not to
abandon your parish churches. You will maintain the papacy in Rome. I tell you
anew that 666 now is in Rome. Do not judge My Son’s Church by His pastors. In
their human nature they can err; however, as legitimate legally-ordained Roman
Catholic priests they will bring My Son to you if you come seeking Him at the
tabernacles of the world. The Mass is valid, I say unto you!
“My Son is waiting for you at the tabernacles of His Church. My children,
do not abandon Him in these days of deep spiritual darkness. You must all keep
a constant vigilance of prayer going throughout your country, the United States,
and Canada, and all of the countries throughout your world.” - Our Lady,
June 10, 1978
NO SCHISMS
MUST TAKE PLACE
“Do not abandon My Son any
longer by rejecting His Church. Do not judge My Son’s Church by man. The
foundation is My Son, Jesus. And though the walls may develop cracks, the
foundation is solid. Will you not remain and patch these cracks, My children? We
do not wish that you break apart into small groups of discord. No schisms must
take place in My Son’s Church. For all who are baptized a Roman Catholic must
die Roman Catholics to enter Heaven. A rejection of the papacy, a rejection of
the Faith because of human reasoning shall not be accepted by the Eternal Father
in Heaven. Remain faithful and true forever unto the end.” - Our Lady,
November 20, 1979
REGARDLESS
“My children, I have asked
you not to abandon My Son’s House, His Church upon earth. But I must also
counsel you that you must recognize the faces of evil about you, even in My
Son’s House.
“Regardless of the state of the soul or the human body and its frailties in
the body and the nature of man in the priesthood—regardless of how he disports
himself upon earth, as a legally ordained priest, he will have the power through
the Holy Spirit to bring My Son’s Body to you.” - Our Lady,
February 10, 1978
“DO NOT BE
DELUDED”
“Pray, My children. A
constant vigilance of prayer must be kept throughout your country and the
world. Do not abandon My Son in His Church. Do not be deluded by those who
call the Mass invalid. My Son is there. He does not want the doors to close in
His houses, His Church, for He is the door. Though robbers and thieves often
enter, He is still the door. Come and seek Him in His House.” - Our Lady,
September 13, 1978
INSTRUMENT
OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
"Yes, My child, Jesus is
always present in His House. The Holy Sacrifice of His Mass is always valid when
performed by a duly ordained priest. No matter what his human character is, at
the time of the Consecration the Father sends the Holy Spirit down to use this
human being known as your high priest, to bring to you the Body and the Blood,
spiritual and physical, of My Son to you….
"You ask, My child, about the state of soul of the priesthood. This, My
child, is not for you to question or judge. A human being he is, yes. Subject to
error, yes. Subject to fall, yes. But still during the Consecration, and when he
hears you in the confessional, the Holy Spirit comes down upon him, using him as
an instrument to bring absolution to you.
"It is satan's plan to drive you from My Son's House by creating a fallacy
and the outright lie, My children, that the Mass is no longer valid and My Son
not present! We see and watch and use human instruments to make the corrections
necessary to right the houses of My Son. Many have hardened their hearts and do
not listen to these warnings from Heaven. Then, My child, all the Father can do
is to chastise them.” - Our Lady,
October 6, 1973
UNIFY
AGAINST EVIL
“I ask you this: do not
abandon My House, My Church. Remain in your parishes as an example. If you
unify against evil you can vanquish this evil! If you run away, you leave My
Church open to thieves and robbers! Shall you deny to your brothers and sisters
the opportunity to enrich their souls with My Body and Blood? The parish church
must remain open. I shall be there with you, though man is desecrating in his
rituals. I shall be there always with you.” - Jesus, May 27, 1978
“MY
SUFFERING LITTLE CHILDREN”
“I have asked you, My
suffering little children, to remain in your parish churches. Pray and be an
example. Do not abandon My Son’s Houses in your district. For while the doors
are open--and My Son is the door though thieves have entered, and robbers--My
Son is the door, and if you come through that door you will be received with the
light.” - Our Lady,
July 15, 1978
I ASK YOU
AGAIN
“I have asked you once, I
have asked you again, My children, not to abandon your parish churches. It is
the plan of satan to shut the doors. Remember, My children, and I repeat again,
that My Son is with you in the Eucharist. He is present with you in Body and
Spirit. He will be brought to you by a legally-ordained priest, a man of God.
Do not judge My Son’s Church or its structure by the ways of man. The Spirit
will work miracles over the corruption of the man. A legally-ordained priest is
a priest for life.” - Our Lady,
March 25, 1978
YOU MUST
NOT BREAK AWAY
“You must still in your
human nature not become prideful or arrogant. You must accept the counsel of the
true priests who are in My Church. You cannot and must not break away and form
your own groups.
“I have given a procedure from the beginning of the Book of life and
through to the end. You must follow fully the procedure. My Church will not be
subdued, though it goes through great trial now.
“I do not want you to leave your parish churches. I want you and counsel
you as your God to remain! If you have any dispute, I ask you for the
preservation of your salvation upon earth, to not cast aside the role of the
priesthood as given through the Apostles, My followers.
“Peter was My first Pope and your first Pope, and as all others who
followed him, they must be accepted. Be they weak or noble, be they with
sanctity or unholiness, they must be accepted and followed.” - Jesus,
June 9, 1979
CRISIS OF
FAITH
“Do you understand Me, My
children? I ask you not to abandon My Son’s Church in the crisis of Faith now,
but to keep the bark of Peter afloat. I ask you not to remain silent when you
meet with wrongdoing, but to speak out and act to correct a situation that is
offensive to your God and destructive to your soul. Speak once, and if not
hastened or listened to, speak no more, but pray that the Eternal Father in
Heaven will open up the ears of those who have closed their hearts and their
ears to the truth.” - Our Lady,
November 20, 1979
