About Eleison Comments
A weekly column written by his excellency Bishop Richard Williamson. Eleison Comments is currently available in five languages.
Newchurch, Newblesseds
The imminent “beatification” of John-Paul II will make him not a Blessed but a Newblessed. In the Newchurch nothing remains Catholic.
Now Where?
Assuming that Rome’s and the SSPX’s doctrinal positions are irreconcilable, then the SSPX must simply continue along Archbishop Lefebvre’s lines.
Quaking Responsibility
It can be argued that the tectonic instability contributing to Japan’s recent disaster resulted from the sins of men causing the Flood.
Why Suffering?
Japan’s terrible earth- and sea-quake remind us that suffering can be a punishment or warning or an occasion to practise virtue.
Cassocks Weighed
Galatians I, 8–9 demonstrates the ultimate primacy of Truth over Authority. Cassocks may need to be weighed if they risk being found wanting.
Future Discussions
Let nobody be disappointed if the Rome-SSPX discussions are going nowhere. What matters is faithfulness to the Truth coming from God.
