" O Jesus, Eternal Sovereign Priest, which you have deigned to raise to your faithful servant of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre to the episcopal dignity, granting grace to be a fearless defender of the Holy Church and Headquarters Apostolic, a fearless apostle of your reign on earth, a zealous servant of Your Most Holy Mother and a shining example of charity, humility, and of all virtues; now deign in view of its merits to grant the graces that we ask ... so confident that their effective intercession before Thee, we may one day see him raised to the glory of the altars. Amen "
Today, March 25, the twentieth anniversary of the entry into the Life of the Venerable Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre , qualify him as Pope Benedict XVI recently.
then transcribe his statement from the St. Pius X Seminary, in 1974:
INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR ECON St. Pius X,
ON NOVEMBER 21, 1974
We adhere wholeheartedly, with all our soul, to Catholic Rome guardian of the Catholic faith and traditions necessary to maintain that faith, to eternal Rome, mistress of wisdom and truth. On the contrary, we refuse and we always refused to follow the Rome of neo-modernist and neoprotestante trend that clearly stated in Vatican Council II and after all the reforms which it came.
All these reforms, in fact, contributed and still contribute to the demolition of the Church, the ruin of the priesthood, the annihilation of the Sacrifice and the Sacraments, the disappearance of religious life, to education and Teilhardian naturalist at universities, seminars, catechesis, teaching born of Liberalism and Protestantism, condemned repeatedly by the solemn magisterium of the Church .
No authority, not even the highest in the hierarchy, can constrain us to abandon or diminish our Catholic faith clearly expressed and professed by the Church's Magisterium for nineteen centuries. "If it were to happen, says St. Paul, that we or an angel from heaven should teach something other than what I I have taught you, let him be anathema "(Gal. 1, 8).
Is this not perhaps what the Holy Father tells us again today? And if a certain contradiction is manifest in his words and his actions well as acts of the departments, then we choose what has always been taught and do deaf ear to the destructive developments of the Church . Unable to modify profoundly the lex orandi without modifying the lex credendi. " A new Mass corresponding new catechism, a new priesthood, new workshops, new universities, Charismatic Church, Pentecostal, all things opposed to orthodoxy and the Magisterium of always .
Having this reform born of liberalism, modernism, totally poisoned, out of heresy and ends in heresy, even if all your acts are not formally heretical . It is therefore impossible for any conscientious and faithful Catholic to adopt this reform and submit to it in any way whatsoever. The only attitude of fidelity to the Church and Catholic doctrine, for our salvation, is the categorical refusal to accept the Reformation.
is why no rebellion, no bitterness, no resentment, we continue our work of priestly formation in the star teacher ever, convinced that we can not provide a greatest service to the Holy Catholic Church, the Sovereign Pontiff and future generations. is why we stick firmly to what has been believed and practiced about faith, customs, worship, teaching catechism, formation of the priest, the institution of the Church, the Church provided codified in books published before the Modernist influence of the council, hoping that the true light of Tradition dissipates the darkness obscuring the sky of eternal Rome .
And in doing so, with the grace of God, the help of the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. Pius X, we believe remain faithful the Roman Catholic Church, all successors of Peter , and if the "fideles dispensator Mysteriorum Domini Nostri Jesu Christi in Spiritu Sancto." Amen.
Ecône, November 21, 1974.
