Catholic Churches of Traditional Non-Liberal Catholic doctrine and pastoral care

TRADITIONAL OLD CATHOLIC CHURCHES UNITED IN THE WORLD COUNCIL OF NATIONAL CATHOLIC CHURCHES / OLD CATHOLIC PATRIARCHATE

The World Council of National Catholic Churches is made from Cathtolic Churches who stay on traditional ecclesiastical doctrine. It was established in Portugal, in Mafra on 22.-25. October 2004. as a return to true Catholicism as opposed to the deviations of the Utrecht union. It is also used the name ''old catholic Patriarchat.''

Unfortunately, deviations identical to the Old Catholicism of the Union of Utrecht began to be publicly manifested and accepted in the Roman Catholic Church as well.

"The severity of the crisis not only of society as a whole but also of the (Roman Catholic) Church is in the greatest spiritual crisis since its inception. This crisis of the Roman Catholic Church is manifested today in all fields: doctrinal, moral, liturgical and pastoral. Modernism, which Pope St. Pius IX. declared a synthesis of all heresies, crept deep into the pores of the church hierarchy and sometimes causes general confusion among the faithful because they hear conflicting views on matters of faith and morality from the altar. It is with a heavy heart that we listen to certain statements that come from the very top of the Roman Catholic Church, which have aroused doubt and confusion among the faithful. Canon 212 urges the duty of public warning of certain phenomena and statements that are not entirely in accordance with church teaching.

Society is infected with the spirit of anthropocentrism and secularism to the extent that in some countries people are already going to prison for speaking the truth. However, this does not mean that believers should stop speaking the truth. They are the Church at war and their task is to fight for the faith, for Jesus Christ, because whoever is not with him is against him (cf. Mt 12, 30). Unlike previous totalitarian ideologies, genderism is especially dangerous for Christians because it leads them astray with the help of its primary weapon, brainwashing (cf. Col 2:8).

We call for the conversion of both Catholics and all people of good will. We call for great caution in the face of a cunning and perfidious enemy, in the face of the spirit of the age, who wants to turn us away from the truth with sweet talk, seduce us with vain human philosophy and thus ruin the soul for all time. We call for faithfulness to Christ and the Church - at any cost.''

(Msgr. Ph.D Bishop Athanasius Schneider, text from the cover of the book Spirit of Time - apologetic manual no. 2)

"Attacks on the church come quite openly from within the Church itself, even from high-ranking prelates. Jesus said very clearly that his Church, although it is in the world, is not of the world (cf. Jn 15, 19). The task of the Church is not to conform to the world, but on the contrary, to be a light to the world (cf. Mt 5, 14-15). However, today many Catholics have fallen under the influence of the spirit of the times, i.e. the spirit of Satan, and thus put their souls in mortal danger. Many prophecies predict a great apostasy from the faith, and as Pope Benedict XVI himself once said, in the end a small flock will remain. Let's remain faithful to Christ and the Church, who want to remain in that small flock.''

(Doc. Ph.D. Ivan Poljaković, text from the cover of the book Spirit of Time - apologetic manual no. 2)

Given that we, traditional Old Catholics, accept Roman Catholic teaching - except for the discipline of compulsory celibacy for all three degrees of holy orders.

They tell us: ''You Old Catholics of the World Council of National Catholic Churches do not recognize the Pope.'' But, what to say after the series of non-Catholic papal exploits that culminated in the Fiducia Supplicans? Where is the criterion of truth? We do not determine what is true, but neither does the pope. The only criterion of truth, the only Truth, is our Lord Jusus Christ and we should refer to what our Lord Jesus Christ taught us, what the church fathers and the whole Church taught us, in order to know where the truth is. We do not judge the Holy Father (Francis), but Holy Scriptures and Tradition judge him.

JEDNA, SVETA, KATOLIČKA I APOSTOLSKA CRKVA

Katoličke crkve tradicionalne neliberalne doktrine i pastorala

TRADICIONALNE STAROKATOLIČKE CRKVE UJEDINJENE U SVJETSKI SABOR NARODNIH KATOLIČKIH CRKAVA / STAROKATOLIČKI PATRIJARHAT

Svijetski sabor narodnih katoličkih crkava čine starokatoličke crkve koje su ostale na tradicionalnoj crkvenoj doktrini. Ustanovljen je u Portugalu, u Mafri 22.-25. listopada 2004. godine kao povratak autentičnom katolicizmu nasuprot devijacijama Uthretske unije. Također se koristi i ime ''starokatolički patrijarhat.''

Na žalost, devijacije identične starokatolicizmu Uthretske unije počele su biti javno očitovane i prihvaćane i u Rimokatoličkoj crkvi.

''Težina krize ne samo društva u cjelini već i (Rimokatoličke) Crkve nalazi se u najvećoj duhovnoj krizi od svoga postanka. Ta kriza Rimokatoličke Crkve očituje se danas na svim poljima: doktrinarnom, moralnom, liturgijskom i pastoralnom. Modernizam, kojeg je papa sv. Pio IX. proglasio sintezom svih hereza, uvukao se duboko u pore crkvene hijerarhije te ponekad izaziva opću zbunjenost kod vjernika jer s oltara čuju oprečne stavove po pitanju vjere i ćudoređa. Teška srca slušamo pojedine izjave koje dolaze iz samog vrha Rimokatoličke Crkve, a koje su kod vjernika pobudile sumnju, zbunjenost i smetenost. Kanon 212, potiče na dužnost javnog upozorenja na određene pojave i izjave koje nisu posve u skladu s crkvenim naukom.

Društvo je inficirano duhom antropocentrizma i sekularizma do te mjere da se u nekim zemljama već odlazi u zatvor zbog izgovorene istine. Međutim, to ne znači da vjernici trebaju prestati govoriti istinu. Oni su vojujuća Crkva i njihova je zadaća boriti se za vjeru, za Isusa Krista, jer tko nije s njim protiv njega je (usp. Mt 12, 30). Za razliku od prijašnjih totalitarističkih ideologija, dženderizam je posebno opasan za kršćane jer ih uz pomoć svog primarnog oružja, pranja mozga, odvodi u zabludu (usp. Kol 2, 8).

Pozivamo na obraćenje, kako katolika tako i svih ljudi dobre volje. Pozivamo na veliki oprez pred lukavim i perfidnim neprijateljem, pred duhom vremena, koji nas slatkorječivošću hoće odvratiti od istine, zavesti nas ispraznom ljudskom filozofijom i tako upropastiti dušu za sva vremena. Pozivamo na vjernost Kristu i Crkvi - po svaku cijenu.''

(Msgr. dr.. sc. biskup Athanasius Schneider, tekst sa korica knjige Duh vremena - apologetski priručnik br. 2)

''Napadi na crkvu dolaze sasvim otvoreno i iz samog krila Crkve, čak i od visoko pozicioniranih prelata. Isus je vrlo jasno rekao da njegova Crkva, iako jest u svijetu, nije od svijeta (usp. Iv 15, 19). Zadaća Crkve nije suobličiti se svijetu, već naprotiv, biti svjetlo svijetu (usp. Mt 5, 14-15). Međutim, danas su mnogi katolici pali pod utjecaj duha vremena, tj. duha Sotone, i tako doveli svoju dušu u pogibeljnu opasnost. Mnogim proročanstvima je predviđen veliki otpad od vjere te kako je i sam papa Benedikt XVI. nekoć rekao, na kraju će ostati malo stado. Ostanimo vjerni Kristu i Crkvi, koji želite ostati u tom malom stadu.''

(Doc. dr. sc. Ivan Poljaković, tekst sa korica knjige Duh vremena - apologetski priručnik br. 2)

Obzirom da mi, tradicionalni starokatolici prihvaćamo rimokatolički nauk, izuzev discipline obveznog celibata za sva tri stupnja svetoga reda, snažno podupiremo i podržavamo ove stavove.

Kažu nam: ''Ni vi starokatolici Svjetskog sabora narodnih katoličkih crkava ne priznajete papu''. Ali što reći nakon serije nekatoličkih papinskih podviga koji su kulminirali s Fiducia Supplicans? gdje je kriterij istine? Ne određujemo mi što je istina, ali ni papa ne određuje. Jedini kriterij istine, jedina Istina, to je naš Gospodin Isus Krist i trebamo se pozivati na ono što nas je naš Gospodin Isus Krist učio, što su nas učili crkveni oci i cijela Crkva, da bismo znali gdje je istina. Ne sudimo mi Svetoga Oca nego ga sudi Sveto Pismo i Tradicija.
