IT HAPPENED THAT THE HOLY FATHER FRANCIS HAS MADE ITS AN ENCYCLICAL WRITTEN AND PUBLISHED BY A POPE OF THE FUTURE IN THE YEAR 2023 …
.
The encyclical of Benedict XVIII came to his time in the copy-tribute to several senior members of the Roman Curia. Well: può sorgermi oggi il piacevole sospetto che qualcuno l’abbia veramente letta?

The Supreme Pontiff Francis He has modified the canon n. 579 the Code of Canon Law regarding the consecrated life of diocesan institutes. According to an edict signed by the Secretary of State, Cardinale Pietro Parolin, His Holiness has decided to erect new institutions diocesan right necessary "to prior consultation of the Holy See as a necessary the validity». Otherwise, "it incurs the nullity of the decree establishing the institution itself ' [cf. WHO].
.
Cardinal Pietro Parolin He explained in the replies that "it is necessary in order to prevent them from being erected at the diocesan level of new institutions without sufficient discernment which verifies the originality of the charism, defining the specific traits that they will have the consecration through the profession of the evangelical counsels, and that the real possibilities of developing individuals'.
.
A year earlier abdication of Pope Benedict XVI, I was delighted to write a book that was published in January 2013. This text, more than a book, It was in the form of an encyclical motu proprio given at St. Peter's 28 May 2023 the Solemnity of Pentecost the Holy Spirit by Pope Benedict XVIII. Encyclical that this future Pontiff had titrated How much care in cordibus nostris.
.
So let me smile that more than three years ago, in a very structured text 206 pages, my imaginative Benedict XVIII devoted their entire Part Four of the change of this fee; of so called: «On withdrawing the diocesan bishops of the faculty of recognizing new religious congregations and ecclesial realities. Change fees 579 of the Code of Canon Law».
.
As I explained recently to readers in an article [see WHO] my books are currently out of print, but the sooner will once again be reprinted everyone, including the encyclical of this Pontefice del futuro. In the meantime, you can still revel in reading the part in which was determined the change of this fee, precisely to prevent many bishops superficial and lacking at times of basic prudence, They would give credit and recognition to a proliferating army founders e fondatrici, often with the most serious consequential damages for both the diocese and for the universal Church.
.
But there's more … in the fifth part of his encyclical, the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVIII of the future is the theme of "A first essential reform of the Roman Curia». Listen to what he writes, among other things, our Pontefice del futuro about certain honorific title:
.
11. On titolo onorifico Of monsignor awarded a priests - The honorary title of monsignor should be reserved only for those priests who have distinguished themselves in service to the Apostolic See and the dioceses. This means that it is quite unlikely that this award will be given to young priests. For this we determine that this honorary title, as to give particularly mature and distinct priests, It is given very sparingly and mostly never before 50 years old, better yet late grateful and valuable service provided selflessly to the universal Church and the particular Churches […].
.
Unbelievable but true! Just what that years later will the Holy Father Francis [cf. WHO, WHO] which however, while the Pontefice del futuro He wrote this encyclical and dictated these provisions, He was still Archbishop of Buenos Aires.
.
In part that is «on bishops, their sacred ministry and their apostolic dignity», between the various sections there is another that deserves to be reported:
.
12 Abolitions of the locations archbishop with right cardinal — He was promoted to the rank of Cardinal for "right home" but for special merits, After long and deep donation operates the Church and the People of God. Without exception for national primatial locations, it shall revoke the cardinal's title to all the archbishop's offices in the world that currently benefit. The Roman Pontiff will choose the number of cardinals needed to form the college of cardinals, mainly between diocesan bishops and bishops among some owners. It may therefore happen that instead of the Metropolitan Archbishop of larger premises which until earlier had benefited by historical right title, He is promoted to the rank of Cardinal Bishop of a diocese suffragan of the same metropolitan see […]».
.
Unbelievable but true! Just what that years later will the Holy Father Francis [cf. WHO, WHO, WHO, etc. ..] which however, while the Pontefice del futuro He wrote this encyclical and dictated these provisions, He was still Archbishop of Buenos Aires.
.
… always in this part devoted to the Bishops, heard what writes Pontefice del futuro about the Italian dioceses:
.
14 On number excessive Of diocese Italiane - In Italy will have to be revised too many dioceses, several of which grouping in less number of inhabitants of the faithful to a single parish of the large metropolitan areas of the world. It should be also revised the number of metropolitan archbishoprics locations and locations of archbishoprics, particularly in areas where for historical reasons has been given the title of Archbishop's residence or in a metropolitan reality that today have no reason to exist. According to the spatial extent and the number of baptized, in Italy there is a Metropolitan every three million baptized, two over five million baptized, three more than ten million baptized. In regions with a number of baptized less than three million it is nevertheless established a metropolia, provided that there are at least five suffragan dioceses, if not, the dioceses of that region, They are distributed between the ecclesiastical provinces of neighboring regions. Unless real and compelling pastoral needs arranging for the suppression or the regrouping of all the lower number to the diocese 100.000 baptized.
.
Unbelievable but true! Just what years later he complains about the Holy Father Francis: the excessive number of Italian Diocese [cf. WHO, WHO, etc.] which however, while the Pontefice del futuro He wrote this encyclical and dictated these provisions, He was still Archbishop of Buenos Aires.
.
Where the futurist Pontiff tratta The third part "Sui priests in particular on the liturgy and the Sacraments», heard what he wrote Benedict XVIII, which invokes new criteria about the exam and marriage annulment judgments by the ecclesiastical courts:
.
23 On the celebration the Sacramento the Wedding - All 'occurrence would have to act with responsibility and courage, cautiously saying no to the wedding celebration advanced request from young or suffering from blatant immaturity, moved by surface infatuation, tine conscious conviction and, above all, from basic Christian faith. Some problems should be noticed in fact prevented with caution. It is gross negligence of the bishop and the parish priest, waived regardless of certain cases of clear immaturity and equally preside over the celebration of the Sacrament, only to remember later, rather than before, that marriage is indissoluble, when all the conditions for its validity. In this regard we invite the ecclesiastical courts to consider carefully, the purpose of an eventual judgment of nullity, cases of non-sacramental perception and awareness on the part of the spouses do not adequately encouraged to acquire the true and deep sense of the nature of religious marriage, However, taking in this case, and always practice, Also the necessary canonical measures against those priests who have performed at the celebration of a sacrament in all those cases where it was clear that no opportunity to proceed in his administration.
.
Unbelievable but true! Just what that years later will the Holy Father Francis with his Pope's own motion on the reform of the canonical process for the nullity of marriage causes [cf. WHO], which however, while the Pontefice del futuro He wrote this encyclical and dictated these provisions, He was still Archbishop of Buenos Aires.
.
The Pontefice del futuro, always at the third dedicated to priests, the liturgy and the sacraments, It does not fail to address the issue of sacramental confession, giving precise instructions to confessors, of the type …
.
22 On the celebration of the Sacrament of Penance - "Receive the Holy Spirit; If you forgive the sins to those who do not forgive they will not be forgiven ". Always bear in mind this initial warning: "Receive the Holy Spirit", because through his work, the confessor is called to act as a tool in the hands of God's grace. The Fathers of the Church gathered in Council declared that it is necessary "by divine decree to confess each and every mortal sin". Administering this delicate sacrament, the confessor, who it is called to be a judge but especially medical, It is first of all always merciful, largendo forgiveness that proceeds from the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit, because Christ is divine mercy incarnate who embodies the human-divine dimension. Always Avoid being pushy, It comply with what he says the penitent, not investigate, They do not dare ever ask for names of places or people linked to the facts narrated, especially if particularly serious, also making the exact opposite: If the penitent wanted to report them answer that to give comfort, advice and above all forgiveness of sins, it is not necessary to report specific places and especially identity of the persons, but only the facts itself, except for very special and extraordinary cases, the evaluation of which is left whole to the best wisdom of the confessor and especially in light of the Holy Spirit who illuminates the. Both very measured in addressing any questions and does so only if it really necessary, indeed only if unavoidable, for example in case he had not understood how exposed by the penitent, but above all it always adheres to a strict merit of what he was told. Do not do interviews and never open arguments on issues that the penitent has not addressed. In particular, do not dare to come into direct or indirect way in speeches related to his sexual intimacy, If the penitent does not open in free conscience arguments on certain issues or if you will not put questions to that effect expressed. They are in fact always known cases of the faithful who because of a bad confessor, or to the investigation or the questions inappropriate and for various reasons not due addressed by a confessor, They have moved away for years, sometimes even for decades by the Church, after they felt violated in their deepest feelings and human intimacy.
.
What comes to mind the Holy Father Francis that years after the publication of this encyclical by the Pontefice del futuro, will debut several times, addressed to confessors, with expressions of this kind: "The confessional should not be a torture chamber» [cf. WHO], "The confessor should be merciful" [cf. WHO], "Penitents not be abused" [cf. WHO] …
.
The encyclical of Benedict XVIII He came to his time in the copy-tribute to several senior members of the Roman Curia. Well: può sorgermi oggi il piacevole sospetto che qualcuno l’abbia letta veramente? Gradually others which will be taken by the encyclical of my ideas Futurist Pontiff, I will be happy to inform our loyal readers. Then, if the Holy Father wanted to use me as a consultant or advisor, in which case the guarantee would I, unlike Cardinal Walter Kasper & C., I not ever suggest going to Stockholm in 2017, During the centenary of the apparitions B.V. Maria Fatima, to celebrate the five hundredth anniversary of the so-called “Reform” Lutheran, which was far from being such, namely reform, It remains and was instead only the celebration of painful heresy of Martin Lutero who broke communion with the Church one, santa, catholic and apostolic. And before the heresy - as recently he has wisely reminded us of the Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Cardinal Gerhard Ludwig Müller [cf. WHO] - we, we do not have anything to celebrate, much less celebrate.
