Only 5 percent of the church stood against V2 during the council and they were very vocal. We see the same thing happening today where a few people stand against what the church is doing yet they are very vocal.

This is a good presentation.

How interesting that tradition in Greek has a very direct connection to something referred to in Revelation.

I really don't see anything wrong with what you have described, it's a very positive recovery of the origin church in the beginning. The priests and church hierarchy shouldn't be driven by sin, but by holiness. NO Greed, no snobs , no hate. It should Never be a cause of suffering. Sounds Good to me!

Very informative thank you it helps a lot in my exams in theology thank you

I don’t buy into his view on Ecumenism and some aspects on other aspects. I studied an MA level course on Vatican-II and I can tell you that becoming Catholic is entering into the Fullness of Christianity.

Read Sacrosanctum Concilium

No doctrine defined at V2, the Council was only pastoral.

I feel that the Vatican II documents have been somehow misunderstood by this presenter. These Protestants call Catholics idol worshipers, many of them preach salvation by faith alone and that once saved always saved meaning that sins cannot prevent one from going to heaven because salvation is based on the alien righteousness of Christ. How can the Spirit teach opposing doctrines in the same body of Christ? They do not believe in the sacrament of confession which means when they die they die in numerous mortal sins. The Catholic Church teaches that those who die in that state cannot get to heaven because according to Revelation nothing unclean shall enter heaven. Martin Luther himself said one can commit murder and adultery 1,000 times a day and cannot lose salvation. How can we be of the same body? He even condemned the book of James calling it an epistle of Straw. No. I do not buy what this presenter is saying. This is a total misrepresentation of what the Vatican II documents actually say.

Protestant becoming Catholic is a shift in position within the church Is it into a higher position or an equal but different position?

VII radically redefined ecclesiology. They also lied when they said that we worship the same God with pagans. And what was so wrong with the rituals for the sacraments that they all had to be changed?! If it ain't broke don't fix it! Unless you want to change it's meaning, which amounts to a change in doctrine.

if the pagan religions are valid, why did the early martyrs have to die?

hi class

No offense, but this is not a true summary of how to interpret properly VII documents. You made it sound as though the Catholic Church sees Protestantism as equal to itself. And you did not make enough distinctions about what is meant by God speaking through other religions. You also claimed that the Catholic Church changed how it saw the Jews. That is bearing false witness, as the Catholic Church has never held the Jewish people to be solely responsible for Christ's death and has always taught that He died due to all of our sins.

Cardinal Suenens: “Vatican II is the French Revolution in the Church”

Nowhere was the Latin Mass abrogated or the Gregorian and Latin in even the new Mass. This is a bastardization of the intention of the Council

Hear ye! You are not God. God will never allow Her Church to fail . Even any alleged error will be used by God. So stop the Pharisaic anger, trust in God and focus on your own sanctity

Vatican II is the great apostasy Saint Paul told us in 2 Thessalonians 2,
