Is Mary The “Co-Redemptrix”?
This declaration of Pope Pius IV is binding for all, it is dogmatic, and any one who denies it, is not Catholic.
Pope Pius IV, Council of Trent, Sess. 25, On Invocation, Veneration and Relics of Saints, and on Sacred Images, ex cathedra: “… the saints, who reign with Christ, offer up their prayers to God for men; and that it is good and useful to invoke them suppliantly and, in order to obtain favors from God through His Son JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, WHO ALONE IS OUR REDEEMER and Savior… And they must also teach that images of Christ, the virgin mother of God and the other saints should be set up and kept… But if anyone should teach or maintain anything contrary to these decrees, let him be anathema.” (Denz. 984)
Catholics are only permitted to pray for those who die as Catholics
Christian faith requires us to be against those who reject Christ’s true religion, while praying and working for their conversion.

@salliperson you should read the Bull Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio of Pope Paul IV. And also read all the decrees made by the true popes before condemning the Diamond brothers. You do not have the true Catholic faith. My post had nothing to do with Sedevacantism.

This is taken word for word from Prophet of the People, A Biography of Padre Pio, p. 158
“Padre Pio had an unpleasant duty to perform. He was talking with a recently-widowed woman. Her husband had once left her and their two children to live with another woman for over three years. Unexpectedly cancer had claimed his life. Before his death, after urgent appeals, he had consented to receive the last Sacraments of the Church. The woman, short and plain, finally asked the inevitable: ‘Where is his soul, Padre? I haven’t slept, worrying.’ Padre Pio watched her with troubled eyes. He could almost feel her grief filling his own heart. ‘Your husband’s soul is condemned forever,’ he whispered. The woman shook her head and her eyes clouded with tears. ‘Condemned?’ Padre Pio nodded sadly. ‘When receiving the last Sacraments he concealed many sins. He had neither repentance nor a good resolution. He was also a sinner against God’s mercy, because he said he always wanted to have a share of the good things in life and then have time to be converted to God.’”

Today is Low Sunday or "Quasimodo Sunday"
'Divine Mercy' devotion truly is the Devil's clever substitute for the Rosary, devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and the uniqueness of Easter Sunday. The painting of Jesus does not show the wounds of the crucifixion on the feet and hands of Jesus, nor is the Sacred Heart shown. Mercy devotion is a false devotion, not Catholic. In the so called apparition to Sr Faustina, she is urged to pray the Chaplet of Mercy, continuously. If one prays the chaplet continuously, where is the time to pray the Rosary? It contrasts to what Our Lady repeated in her many true apparitions to pray the rosary often and many times.
Also the false apparition, Sr Faustina says that the Sacred Host rested on her hands. This is sacrilegious as even at the time when she lived only priests could touch the Sacred Host. Probably the practice of Holy Communion condemned in the early Church history, came in our times due to alleged false apparition of Sr Faustina. St Thomas Aquinas affirmed that it is proper that only an ordained priests touches the Sacred Host.
Her confessor told her in confession, I fear for you sister, isn’t this an illusion of some sort? Page 109 Sr Faustina diary Divine Mercy in my soul. #122 Kindle edition. Her confessor also told her: “Sister, this is an illusion, the Lord Jesus cannot be demanding this. You have made your perpetual vows. All this is an illusion. You are inventing some sort of heresy!” And he was shouting at me almost at the top of his voice. I asked him whether all of this was an illusion, and he said, ‘Everything.’ Then please tell me what course must I take? Well sister you must not follow any inspiration. You should get your mind off all this. You should pay no attention to what you hear in your soul and try to carry out your exterior duties well.

In her diary she further states “…My superiors did not believe what I said and treated me with pity as though I were being deluded or were imagining things.” Page 57, Sr Faustina diary Divine Mercy in my soul. #38 Kindle edition
