Summary

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we continue building the case for a state of necessity by examining the heart of Catholic life: the liturgy. Fr. Wiseman explores how the widespread changes to the Mass and the sacraments have affected the spiritual life of the faithful—and even the identity of the priesthood itself. What happens when the Church’s worship no longer clearly expresses her doctrine? How does the way we pray shape what we believe? Drawing on the principle lex orandi, lex credendi, this episode shows how liturgical changes can create a grave and general threat to souls, and why this crisis cannot be ignored. We’d love your feedback on this series! podcast@sspx.org

What is the SSPX Podcast?

The SSPX Podcast is produced by Angelus Press, which has as its mission the fortification of traditional Catholics so that they can defend the Faith, and reaching out to those who have not yet found Tradition.  – – – – – –

What is the SSPX?

The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls. Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it. https://sspx.org

Today on the Episcopal Consecration series, Father Wiseman examines how changes to the liturgy have reshaped belief, the priesthood, and the life of the church.

0:17.0

Because we are kind of facing a situation where the authorities in the church who should be defending and fostering the true worship of God are effectively withdrawing men from that worship.

0:31.7

I think we can say the sacramental life of the church has changed its orientation.

0:36.7

These are sacraments of man, for man in his community,

0:40.9

not to introduce him to the highest act he can do on this earth. Why would we, who are Catholics,

0:48.5

want to change our rights to mimic Protestants? Why? What could be the possible purpose of that? Will it increase

0:56.9

my faith? Will it deepen my faith? Welcome, Father Wiseman. This is the continuation of our

1:06.6

podcast series on the Episcopal Consecrations. For those who are just listening to this podcast,

1:13.3

I encourage you to listen to the previous episodes only because we are going to jump into the

1:19.8

state of necessity on the liturgical level, and we are proceeding as if certain things have

1:25.3

already been established, like the state of necessity in its

1:28.6

principles and in its, at least doctrinal applications. So, Father, if you can explain both a little

1:35.7

bit about yourself by way of introduction, and then what specifically you'll be discussing in this

1:41.6

podcast. Sure. Thanks, Jim. It's been a little bit since I've been on the

1:45.8

podcast series, but I am currently stationed actually in St. Mary's. I'm teaching in the college there.

1:53.9

I just got transferred there this past August. Before that, I was in the seminary for eight years, in fact,

2:00.5

teaching theology and philosophy. So I'm still doing that at this was in the seminary for eight years, in fact, teaching theology and philosophy.

2:02.7

So I'm still doing that at the undergraduate level now.

2:06.6

And what we're going to be discussing today is sort of the next logical step in our podcast series

2:12.6

to try to address the rampant liturgical problems

2:18.3

that are in the church as a result of the many changes
