Does this man speak for the SSPX?

“What remains of the magisterium in the Church? It is a matter of faith that Our Lord endowed His Church with a living and perpetual Magisterium, that is to say a papal and episcopal voice which, in every era and at the present time, is the echo of divine revelation and the relay of tradition. Well, this magisterium, at least as regards the truths denied by the conciliar hierarchy, lies in Mgr Lefebvre in whom it can be found in a certain manner. He is the veritable echo of tradition, the faithful witness, the good shepherd whom simple sheep have been able to identify from the wolves in sheep’s clothing. Yes, the Church still has a living and perpetual magisterium and Mgr Lefebvre is its saviour. The indefectibility of the Church can be seen in the inflexibility of the Archbishop.”

Tissier de Mallarias, SSPX Bishop. Fideliter, 1989 (No. 72, p10)

My question: Archbishop Lefebvre is dead. Where is Mallarais' magisterium now?

SSPX Tragedy ??

The SSPX leadership seems to have failed to respond in a positive manner to the 5 points sent from Rome. They have, for all purposes, turned away from the process of regularisation and combating the modernists; they have fled the fight. Make no mistake, the fight is where the Pope (and hence Church is). The fight is not in chapels, in ghettoes that have no canonical standing.

To disobey a superior is a grave matter. St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Robert Bellarmine teach that one may indeed disobey when the order is intrinsically evil, and explicit and manifest. When an order is within the realm of "probability", then order is still to be obeyed, with the sin falling on the superior. In fact, St. Robert, basing himself on Scripture states that to hold the contrary is heresy.

Hence, why not cease the opportunity? Is it because the New Mass is "intrinsically evil", and the Second Vatican Council "heretical"? Or so it is claimed by some. Yet who are these persons - the Pope? Certainly not. Yet only the Pope has the power (the Keys) from Christ to do so. For any Catholic to claim the New Mass as evil, to claim the Council heretical, to claim a power he cannot have (and thus to usurp the Pope's singular power) is an act of schism.

Now is the time. Now is the time for humility, to join the fight in the front lines! Now is the time to bring in several hundred "shock troops" to increase the Traditional pressure. Now is the time to help Pope Benedict restore the Church. Now is the time to bind the wounds of Holy Mother Church. Now is the time.

However, we should end on a positive note. It seems that perhaps Bishop Fellay is under intense pressure from extreme elements within the Society; those with schismatic inclinations. What are such inclinations? To judge without authority between the Rome of today and the Rome of yesterday, to declare the New Mass an impiety, evil, to speak of two "churches" etc. 

Let us continue to pray for Bishop Fellay, that he reach out to the Holy Father.
