Latin Mass Comeback? : Neo Catholics Worried.

26/10/2017

It seems that faitful Catholics are wanting to attend the Latin Mass, over the Novus Ordo Mass and Neo Catholics are worried. Please have the look at the following response to this in a Novus Ordo bulletin notice from St. Bernadette's Parish in Australia. Is this really written out of charity for Catholics who simply want to attend the Latin Mass, or just to scare Faithful Catholics away from the beauty of the Latin Mass?

  • It assumes that there is no Latin Mass in Western Church? Really?
  • The "movement" say Novus Ordo Mass is "flawed and deficient," by whom? Who is saying this? Why not name and out this so called "movement"? Worried about its mere name?
  • To keep away from the Mass because the "form" doesn't suit you is keeping away from Christ? Again "who" is keeping away from the Mass and Christ because of this reason? Surely if Catholics love Christ, they would not stay away from Christ, but receive Him at the Latin Mass... What is really the problem here?

The bottom line is, if both forms of the Mass are the same, why make such a big deal out of it? If you love the Novus Ordo form keep on celebrating it. If other Catholics love the Latin Mass let them attend it.

Contaminating the Faith, or just business as usual?

(Catholic Conference Centre: Catholic Mass arrangement removed and covered-up, for Buddhist  worship.)
As Catholics is it acceptable to accommodate other faiths as we do with our own faith - to treat our Faith as the same as other faiths? To make this point clear, we should ask ourselves, what is the purpose of our faith? To save our own soul, and to save other souls. 

WITNESS was made aware of a Catholic conference centre where Mass is celebrated on a regular basis. Only recent the centre has allowed Buddhists to use the facilities for worship. After talking with a few members of the Catholic community, it becomes apparent that this news, was quite common knowledge. The majority did not seem to agree with this - that this was their place of worship, not other faiths. While the minority took the impression that it "pays the bills", and that the priest in charge can do as he see fit. It must be noted that the whole property was purchased and built by the Catholic community through their generous donations. While dialogue will be likely needed for a positive outcome for this Catholic community. Let's leave that up to the shepherd and his sheep..
Having said that, what are the broader implications? The following Latin maxim tells us how we do one thing, affects how we do other things, and vice versa. So how we live, will actually effect  how we believe, and how we  worship...This applies also when we accommodate other faiths, the same way we accommodate our own Faith. It is like having one facility for two different sports. Sure they are different but maybe, just maybe, we'll try out the other sport and who knows we might even like it and never go back.

What about following.., what is the Gospel teaching us? How seriously do we follow it, and act on it?
"If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them. Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work."
​~ 2 John 1:10-11

As stated, at the heart of our Faith is to save our soul and the souls of others. Surely accomodating other faiths is not the way to go?
"There is nothing colder than a Christian who is not concerned for the salvation of souls."
​~ St. John Chrysostom

Seriously - we are called to love our neighbour, but the real problem arises when we do not know our Faith enough, or we do not believe in our Faith enough, or even love our Faith enough to supersede other faiths and to actually love our neighbour. We want to save our own souls by doing good to our neighbours, but do we really want to save our neighbour's soul also?

Only the Most Holy can See the Heights of Truth, and did He See It!

This video is about Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre; a great holy man who could see before-hand the dangers of modernism within the Catholic Church. In this video Michael Matt talks about Archbishop Lefebvre with great admiration. I would also like to put it out there that Michael Matt is also a great Catholic Man, who loves Catholic tradition, aka the Catholic Church. Michael speaks plainly the Catholic truth and does not misdirect Catholics toward any biases. Thank you Michael Matt for your Faith and works.
(Thank you also to Michael Sestak for making this shorter version of Michael Matt's "The Church of Accompaniment: Luther vs. Lefebvre.")

​(Note: If you clearly understand modernism inside the Catholic Church and love it, this video is not for you.)
