Altar servers lead a procession May 2 from St. Jerome#39;s present church building to the site of the new church for the official groundbreaking ...

Ever since Vatican II (1962-1965) the Newchurch of the New Order has reeked with the odor of heresy. Because Vatican II led directly to the watering down of Christ as God and to an emphasis on Christ as "our brother," it set off a new burst of Arianism in Newchurch. Right after Vatican II, the heretics were coming out of the closet, denying every Catholic dogma from the divinity of Christ to the perpetual virginity of the Blessed Virgin Mary to the Crucifixion and Resurrection (remember The Passover Plot?)

The Arian heresy, which essentially denied the divinity of Christ, infected the Church like a virulent virus in the fourth century, carrying away with it most of the bishops and even, some authorities say, the pope. Millions of Catholics were led astray, including four out of five bishops and two out of three priests. The noted Patristic scholar, Fr. William Juergens, estimated that by the end of the fourth century, "the number of Catholic bishops in possession of sees, as opposed to Arian bishops in possession of sees, was no greater than something between 1% and 3% of the total." He concludes: "Had doctrine been determined by popularity, today we should all be denies of Christ and opponents of the Spirit." It was at this time that St. Jerome, the Great Doctor of the Church, issued his famous lament: "Ingemuit orbis terrarum, se Arianum esse miratus est [the whole world groaned and was dumbfounded that it was Arian]."

Doesn't this description sound a description of Newchurch today? Actually, we would be doing well today if even 1% to 3% were traditional bishops! But there was a silver lining to the cloud. This was the period when the crisis of the Church brought forth its greatest defenders: St. Basil the Great, St. Athanasius Defensor Fidei, St. Martin of Tours, St. Augustine, and several other great figures.

Presbyter Peter Dresser, of Bathurst, Australia, has now published a book in which he proclaims: "No human being can ever be God, and Jesus was a human being. It is as simple as that." That statement is outright heresy, as it denies the dogmatic teaching that Christ has two natures, of God and of man. The Newchurch presbyter goes on to deny three other Catholic dogmata, stating that Mary had as many as six children, that Joseph was the biological father of Christ, and that the resurrection of the body is not to be taken literally.

The Newchurch presbyter specifically denies the First Oecumenical Council of the Church, at Nicaea in 325, its most important council, in which a united East and West rejected the Arian heresy and expressed the dogmatic teaching of the Catholic Church on the nature of Christ, in what today we call the "Nicene Creed," the Creed that is recited on Sundays at Holy Mass.

There is no word from Benedict-Ratzinger on his heretical priest.

This story is three days old and also two thousand years old. The priest will be excommunicated shortly for his views because the are beyond the teachings of the Catholic Church.

The more modernistic the liberal clerical cohort in Australia tries to become, the older are the heresies that they promote. Lately, one Fr Peter Dresser is promoting his own brand of Arianism, a heresy that basically denied the divinity of Christ, and which was solemnly rejected by the Council of Nicaea in 325AD. "No human being can ever be God," writes Fr. Dresser in a booklet distributed to the faithful, "and Jesus was a human being. It is as simple as that."

"No Catholic priest may deny the divinity of Christ, and Dresser is a Catholic priest. It's as simple as that." If Fr. Dresser really denies the divinity of Christ (among several other things!), he will shortly be declared excommunicated from the clerical state. The Church will do it quickly and cleanly, and without rancor.
Godspeed.

If the, Latin Vulgate Bible of St. Jerome, ( 340-420ad) is a scrupulous translation from the original Greek & Hebrew, was is it that the Catholic Church used the Latin Vulgate universally for many years prior to and after the Council of Trent, ( 1546)?

I use the New American Bible, and am quite satisfied!

Any Catholic Bible should be good, just as long as it contains a COMPLETE set of God Word. Avoid the Protestants' heretic Bibles, with 7 books of the Old Testament unjustly removed.

These translators cite and quote in there eleven page preface is amazing and quit telling: S. Augustine, S. Chrysostom, S. Cyril, S. Epiphan, Eusebius, S. Jerome, Justin Martyr, S. Ireney, Origen, and Tertullian


Some of the early Catholic fathers were quoted and cited very extensively in this eleven page preface, such fathers as St. Augustine(28 times) and S. Jerome(26 times). Certain Catholic fathers such as S. Jerome were even singled by the Anglican translators of the KJV of very for special praise. "S. Jerome a most learned father, and the best linguist without controversy, of his age, or of any that went before him, to undertake the translating of the Old Testament, out of the very fountain with that evidence of great learning, judgment, industry, and faithfulness, that he had forever bound the Church unto him, in a debt of special remembrance and thankfulness...S. Jerome maketh no mention of the Greek tongue, wherein yet he did excel"
They loved our Catholic Saints
Um..... do you know from where Protestant churches came? Grow up!


FRom Marty Luther

Quote Martin Luther Commentary on St. John: ``We are compelled to concede to the Papists that they have the Word of God, that we received it from them, and that without them we should have no knowledge of it at all.'' Exactly where did you get your bible from.
Quite alright A little luther never hurt anyone wait maybe it did.
if you say so dear

I dont but your original KJV bible does
When you buy stuff at a store that has been delivered,

But i like the origianal not a counterfit

King James wished to separate the Anglican church from the Vatican and ordered an exact translation of the Vulgate Bible. This was for political, not religious reasons. As I recall, the project was supposed to require five years, but took about six.

Time and again I've heard Protestants assert that the KJV was translated from the original manuscripts, which always inspires me to ask where the translators supposedly obtained said manuscripts. The Vatican archives certainly didn't loan the originals to a rebellious king who was attempting to break the Catholic Pope's authority over the British monarchy. I've seen several reliable sources which stated that the Vulgate was the sole source for the KJV, specifically because King James desired an exact duplicate of the Vatican's Bible, for purely political reasons. King James was a politician, with little or no interest in Biblical scholarship. Furthermore, all the known King James translators were hired specifically because they were fluent in Latin -- not Greek, not Aramaic, not Hebrew -- only Latin. There are historical documents which support this fact. I think all those early Catholic fathers are cited and quoted because they were actually included in the preface of the Vulgate Bible used as the basis for the KJV translation.

...and that IS the point you are trying to make. Right? ...that it was the nascent Catholic church that created the Bible and that Protestants would know nothing of Christianity, but for the original Vulgate Bible.

I agree.

Here's a bit of trivia which may interest you:
In the KJV, turn to Psalm 46 and count each word to find the 46th word, "shake." Then count 46 words backwards from the end. That word should be "spear." The original planned publication date for the KJV was 1610 and William Shakespear was 46 years old during that year. It is rumored (not substantiated) that during the last years of the translation project Shakespear himself was contracted to help speed things along. Do you think He may have manipulated the translation of Psalm 46 to secretly include his own name? I've long wished someone who reads Latin fluently would compare the Vulgate version to the KJV and determine if Psalm 46 is a literal or a "creative" translation, so far as this little mystery is concerned.
