Bishop Callahan seems to want to build a body of Christ united around ignoring what the scriptures say about preaching the truth, rebuking sin, and admonishing the world and the body of Christ to lead Godly lives and to flee from sin but does want one united around his empty-calorie, feel-good message he had another deliver for him because I guess he just couldn’t make it.
The Callahan, Tobin, Martin types are all about not being divisive with non-Traditionalists and modernity, but seem to have no problem in promoting or allowing rigidity and non-collegiality towards traditionalists and the beliefs advanced for 2k years by the church.
Father Altman’s calling out “Bishop” Barron is probably what led to this.
Matthew 10:34-11:1 ©
Jesus instructed the Twelve as follows: ‘Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth: it is not peace I have come to bring, but a sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man’s enemies will be those of his own household.
‘Anyone who prefers father or mother to me is not worthy of me. Anyone who prefers son or daughter to me is not worthy of me. Anyone who does not take his cross and follow in my footsteps is not worthy of me. Anyone who finds his life will lose it; anyone who loses his life for my sake will find it.
‘Anyone who welcomes you welcomes me; and those who welcome me welcome the one who sent me.
‘Anyone who welcomes a prophet will have a prophet’s reward; and anyone who welcomes a holy man will have a holy man’s reward.
‘If anyone gives so much as a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple, then I tell you solemnly, he will most certainly not lose his reward.’
When Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples he moved on from there to teach and preach in their towns.
in silence hear the heartbeat of the Lord
Callahan wants silence when it’s time to preach against sin, the LGBTQ agenda, pro-aborts, and for the deposit of faith. He wants silence when it’s time to rise in support of Father Altman, but not when it’s people calling to complain about Father Altman. He wants rigidity towards Fathers and Bishops like Altman, but collegiality towards those unlike them.
But not when it’s time to call and complain about Father Altman. Then it would no doubt, to Callahan, be time to not be silent anymore but be rigid against Father Altman.
Next time, hear more of Callahan’s brilliant contextual, exegetic, and hermeneutic understanding of Sacred Scripture when he says that Mormons are correct when the say that Jesus was speaking of them when he said “Other sheep I have that are not of this fold...” (John 10:16).
And no doubt Callahan might say it wouldn’t be collegial to follow the scriptures you provided, but rather far to rigid in fact to do so...
Happy to stand for my position at the final judgment.
We have some real problems, some very bad players in the Church to worry about. Bishop Barron is not one of them.
