Why Not Rescind the 1521 Excommunication of Luther?
From Conflict to Communion: Why not rescind the 1521 excommunication of Luther? The point of lifting personal excommunications posthumously is not for the repose of the souls of the excommunicated. It is to take away the public rejection of that person and the scandal caused by the condemnation. The following material is a chapter from the article, “From Conflict to Communion: Going Home to Rome,” which addresses various issues in the LWF/Vatican report From Conflict to Communion (C2C). C2C purports to be a candid look at where things stand between Lutherans and Roman Catholics. In fact C2C has an agenda: It directs Lutherans to be PC so that in time they can be RC. The full article includes the following chapters: 1. Lutherans and Catholics agree/disagree on baptism. 2. C2C declares JDDJ has the “highest level of authority.” (¶97) 3. Justification must decrease so that unity may increase. 4. C2C conceals the Catholic rejection of “faith alone.” 5. C2C’s focus on “Luther’s theology” disguises a caricature of Luther. 6. Why not rescind the 1521 excommunication of Luther? 7. C2C creates a caricature of Luther on scripture by omitting its gospel center. 8. C2C hides the Vatican view: Lutherans are not really, truly “Church.” 9. C2C assumes papal primacy and infallibility are inevitable. 10. Mary, Mary, why are they hiding you? 11. C2C glides over the ordination of women. 12. C2C kicks the can down the road: Lutherans must concede to unity on Rome’s terms. * * * * * 6. Why not rescind the 1521 excommunication of Luther? On June 15, 1520, Pope Leo X issued his bull, Exsurge Domine (“Arise, O Lord, and judge your cause….The wild boar from the forest seeks to destroy [the vineyard]”), threatening Luther, “the wild boar,” with excommunication. -

11 Joachim of Fiore
JOACHIM OF FIORE The abbot’s image released by the bishop’s See of Cosenza, on the occasion of the eight-hundredth anniversary of Joachim’s death,which marks the date ( March 2002 ) of the preliminary steps of the catholic Church’s process leading to his beatification . Joachim of Fiore was born at Celico, a small town in the province of Cosenza, in 1130 and died, in the odour of sanctity, on March the 30 th , 1202, at Canale, a small hamlet of Pietrafitta, near Cosenza. His mortal remains were taken to the “Florense” Abbey of San Giovanni in Fiore, in 1226. He was a Cistercian abbot of Corazzo in 1177 and of Casamari in 1182, but, a short time later, he withdrew into solitude. In 1196 he founded a new congregation in San Giovanni in Fiore, called “Florense”, approved by Celestino III. He was one of the most fecund and complex personalities of the medieval spirituality. Many, especially the extremist Spiritual Franciscans, acclaimed him as a prophet. His prophecies exerted a fascinating influence on a large number of sensible Christian minds. He prophesied a new age. In his “Age of the Spirit” the ecclesiastical organization would be replaced and the Order of the Just (The Franciscan order) would rule the Church. Joachim’s works had a great vogue in the 13 th and 14 th centuries. Dante places him in Paradise, Divine Comedy, the twelfth canto, lines of verse 140/141: “ …il calavrese abate Giovacchino / di spirito profetico dotato…”. Joachim of Fiore resided for some time at the Abbey of Fonte Laurato, in Fiumefreddo Bruzio, which became the second Mother House of the “Florense” congregation. -
Events of the Reformation Part 1 – Church Becomes Powerful Institution
May 20, 2018 Events of the Reformation Protestants and Roman Catholics agree on first 5 centuries. What changed? Why did some in the Church want reform by the 16th century? Outline Why the Reformation? 1. Church becomes powerful institution. 2. Additional teaching and practices were added. 3. People begin questioning the Church. 4. Martin Luther’s protest. Part 1 – Church Becomes Powerful Institution Evidence of Rome’s power grab • In 2nd century we see bishops over regions; people looked to them for guidance. • Around 195AD there was dispute over which day to celebrate Passover (14th Nissan vs. Sunday) • Polycarp said 14th Nissan, but now Victor (Bishop of Rome) liked Sunday. • A council was convened to decide, and they decided on Sunday. • But bishops of Asia continued the Passover on 14th Nissan. • Eusebius wrote what happened next: “Thereupon Victor, who presided over the church at Rome, immediately attempted to cut off from the common unity the parishes of all Asia, with the churches that agreed with them, as heterodox [heretics]; and he wrote letters and declared all the brethren there wholly excommunicate.” (Eus., Hist. eccl. 5.24.9) Everyone started looking to Rome to settle disputes • Rome was always ending up on the winning side in their handling of controversial topics. 1 • So through a combination of the fact that Rome was the most important city in the ancient world and its bishop was always right doctrinally then everyone started looking to Rome. • So Rome took that power and developed it into the Roman Catholic Church by the 600s. Church granted power to rule • Constantine gave the pope power to rule over Italy, Jerusalem, Constantinople and Alexandria. -

In the chapter on the Rudiments of Connoisseurship in the second series of his Study and Criticism of Italian Art, after speaking of the characteristic features in the painting of human beings by which authorship " may be determined, he says : We turn to the animals that the painters, of the Renaissance habitually intro- duced into pictures, the horse, the ox, the ass, and more rarely birds. They need not long detain us, because in questions of detail all that we have found to apply to the human figure can easily be made to apply by the reader to the various animals. I must, however, remind him that animals were rarely petted and therefore rarely observed in the Renaissance. Vasari, for instance, gets into a fury of contempt when describing Sodoma's devotion to pet birds and horses." Having from my schooldays been accustomed to keep animals and birds, to sketch them and to look vii ANIMAL LIFE IN ITALIAN PAINTING for them in painting, I had a general recollection which would not quite square with the statement that they were rarely petted and therefore rarely observed in the Renaissance. -

Spiritual Theology by JORDAN AUMANN, O.P
Spiritual Theology By JORDAN AUMANN, O.P. Preface The present volume was written in response to numerous requests for a complete and definitive work on Christian spirituality. It is not an entirely new work, however, for some sections are taken substantially from The Theology of Christian Perfection by Antonio Royo and Jordan Aumann, published in 1962 by Priory Press. Spiritual theology is both speculative and practical, but it is eminently practical because it deals with Christian life in relation to the perfection of charity. Consequently, the study of the theology of Christian perfection should proceed scientifically and systematically, although its aim is not to produce scholars but to form holy Christians. Therefore the first part of this volume investigates the theological principles of Christian holiness; the second part deduces from those principles the general directives by which souls can be guided in their journey to the goal of the Christian life. The theology contained in this volume is based on the spiritual doctrine of three Doctors of the Church: St. Thomas Aquinas, St. John of the Cross, and St. Teresa of Avila. Moreover, it is fully in accord with the teaching of John G. Arintero and Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange. A final word of thanks is due to Laura Gillet, John Osman, Michael Balaria, and Sister Veronica Marie. They were most generous in contributing their time and labor in the typing of the manuscript. JORDAN AUMANN. O.P. In Spiritual Theology Father Jordan Aumann dispels the common misconception that ascetical and mystical theology is for the select few. He reminds us that "the real purpose of the study of the spiritual life is not to produce scholars but to form holy Christians." Basing much of his work on St. -
