Sarah: “I am In No Way In Opposition To Francis”

Cardinal Robert Sarah regrets that he is put "at the top of the list of opponents of Pope Francis" although he has said that "whoever is against the Pope is outside the Church."

Talking to NCRegister (February 8) he confesses that these accusations "break my heart and sadden me deeply."

He is confident that Francis pays no attention to "such false insinuations" insisting again that he is "in no way in opposition to Pope Francis".

However, he is “uneasy” about the “strange synod” taking place in Germany, and believes that rich German Church organisations put pressure on Francis to abolish celibacy.

For Sarah, this would be "a catastrophe" because it would imply that priestly life is not full time but only one commitment among others.

Sarah explains that the enemies of celibacy argue based on "historical errors" and "theological misunderstandings."

Married priests of the first centuries were required to abstain from sexual relations and celibacy was confirmed at the Council of Elvira (305), he says,

Only much later, the East would abolish celibacy "without ever renouncing the ontological link between priesthood and abstinence."

Oh No! Bang goes any trust I had placed in YOU Sir. I won't say "Cardinal" because you are obviously serving a Heretic, keeping him in Office and are excommunicated. How can you be "Christ's" when you are supporting someone working for Satan?
He is obviously undermining the Temple of Christ.

He is obviously undermining the Temple of Christ.
He is clearly a False Shepherd
He is definitely a Heretic, Schismatic and Apostate. Calling himself Roman Catholic as he serves the Temple of Satan with his malicious misdeeds and arrogant reinvention of the Church. Calling his False church the TRUE Church founded by Jesus Christ.

The REAL Roman Catholic Church has been placed through Our Lady under Our Lord's Control.
Whilst Ber-GOG-lio sit's within the accredited Temple of Christ - professing himself to be under the influence of the Holy Ghost and speaking as the Vicar of Christ on earth.

Whilst all around him lies anarchy and desolation.

Is that not the definition of the End Times Antichrist? Who is the False Prophet? Take care that YOU are not speaking as one yourself - for those words you stated are not your TRUE feelings. So take care!

Go preach your TRUE thoughts !- Speak that which you know to be Truth!

Save souls ! Stop undermining Christ....and gain Heaven for YOURSELF!

Calm down.
Card Sarah is just deeply confused and bewildered.
That is the effect of the poison spewed by Antipope Bergoglio.
In time all will be well again with the papacy.
la verdad prevalece
Since he was in Argentina Bergoglio has declared war to all the popes of the Catholic Church, the schismatic, apostate and heretic is Bergoglio himself.
la verdad prevalece
Bergoglio in Argentina was already an offender of the Ecclesiastical Law and the Divine Law, he is a freemason with the pretension that usurping the papacy can abolish them.
la verdad prevalece
Bergoglio has declared war against Christ he is the one who is outside the Church

To be against what this pope is trying to do to Christ's Church is the duty of every real Catholic. I will not let anyone lead me to hell.

If cardinals like Sarah and others are not in opposition with Francis then how is any real change going to happen? Please lord send us real masculine Cardinals that will fight for us...

Well, I am 'outside the Church' I guess. With Bergoglio as pretend pope, excommunication would be an honor.

It is Bergoglio aka “francis”;who is now outside the Roman Catholic Church .
The new man made church he leads rejects the 1st, 6th and 7th divine commandments of God.More

You're not against the Pope (I hope). You're against the Pope's wrong-headed opinions and his agenda. Courtiers in every monarchy in history have understood this distinction. You're never against the "king" or the kingdom... that would be treason. The king's dumb ideas about running things, well... that's different. ;-)

Odd you should use the word traitor when you have disgraced the name of St Cuthbert with your vile insults toward people you disagree with.
As you claim to be a catholic you do indeed have a duty to follow the true pope.

But you continually insist that a formal heretic like Bergoglio [stage name Francis] who has publicly rejected the 1st, 6th and 7th divine commandments of God is a true pope.

Even the Elizabethan heretics believed in the 10 commandments.
But you alas now believe in the new man made Church of Bergolio.

Your late King Henry vii is roaring with laughter at you and waiting for you to join him I suggest.

@St Cuthbert Mayne This is Thor's new gimmick: playing the victim and crying about all the "vile insults" you've delivered by way of correcting his foolishness.
