64

A

All the faithful

66
Q

C 750.1: How do the Christian faithful believe in those things which are “contained in the word of God, written or handed on, that is, in the one deposit of faith entrusted to the Church, and at the same time proposed as divinely revealed either by the solemn magisterium of the Church or by its ordinary and universal magisterium which is manifested by the common adherence of the Christian faithful under the leadership of the sacred magisterium;”

A

With divine and Catholic faith

67
Q

C. 750.1: What is “divine and Catholic faith”?

A

Note the ablative absolute.
Divine: something from Revelation that we have received from God who can neither deceive nor be deceived
Catholic: connected to the Church

68
Q

C. 750.1: What is the significance of “proposed”?

A

This gives a relationship of justice. Before proposal, there is no obligation. So, St. Thomas Aquinas was free to not give his assent to the Immaculate Conception before it was proposed (Dec 8, 1854, Pius IX, Ineffabilis Deus)

69
Q

C. 750.1: What is the difference between “solemn” and “extraordinary”?

No difference

A

“Each and every thing which is proposed definitively by the magisterium of the Church concerning the doctrine of faith and morals, that is, each and every thing which is required to safeguard reverently and to expound faithfully the same deposit of faith…”

A

If they are proposed definitively.

73
Q

C. 750.2: How is this distinct from 750.1 in terms of material?

A

The material in 750.2 is not part of the deposit of faith.

74
Q

C. 750.2: Name an example of something this covers.

A

The term “transubstantiation.”

75
Q

C. 750: What are the “de fide” titles for each paragraph?

A
  1. 1: De fide credenda

750. 2: De fide tenenda

76
Q

C. 750: Upon what are the “de fide” titles founded?

A
  1. 1: De fide credenda: Divine Revelation

750. 2: De fide tenenda: Promise of the Holy Spirit to the Church

77
Q

C. 750: How, according to 750, do I break communion?

A

750.2: “therefore, one who rejects those propositions which are to be held definitively is opposed to the doctrine of the Catholic Church.”

82
Q

C. 751: What is schism?

A

schism is the refusal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff or of communion with the members of the Church subject to him.

83
Q

C. 752: What kind of belief must be given “to a doctrine which the Supreme Pontiff or the college of bishops declares concerning faith or morals when they exercise the authentic magisterium, even if they do not intend to proclaim it by definitive act;”

A

“Although not an assent of faith, a religious submission of the intellect and will…”

“religiosum tamen intellectus et voluntatis obsequium”

84
Q

C. 752: What does “a religious submission of the intellect and will” look like, practically?

A

A person will accept what the Church says and not teach against it.

85
Q

C. 752: What is the significance of “cum magisterium authenticum exercent”

A

Authentic is used here to emphasize that this teaching is done with the authority of Christ.

86
Q

C. 753: Again, what does “authentic” mean?

A

Authentic is used here to emphasize that this teaching is done with the authority of Christ.

87
Q

C. 753: Who is “bound to adhere with religious submission of mind to the authentic magisterium of their bishops”?

A

The Christian faithful

88
Q

C. 753: How are the Christian faithful to believe what their bishops say?

A

The Latin here is important: “religioso animi obsequio adhaerere tenentur.”

“bound to adhere with religious submission of mind.” The Latin is not “mens”, but “animus”. This is a bit tricksy to tease out. Return to your St. Thomas and beg Ghirlanda for mercy.

89
Q

C. 753: What is the minimum required for “religioso animi obsequio adhaerere tenentur”?

A

You cannot teach against this and you ought to try to understand it.

90
Q

C. 754: What is obliged to “observe the constitutions and decrees which the legitimate authority of the Church issues in order to propose doctrine and to proscribe erroneous opinions, particularly those which the Roman Pontiff or the college of bishops puts forth”?

A

All Christian faithful

91
Q

C. 754: What does this canon not cover that makes it different from the previous canons?

A

Faith and morals.

92
Q

C. 754: Give an example of something that falls under this canon.

A

The new profession of faith must be used, but it isn’t per se a matter of faith and morals, but internal discipline. It comes from the CDF.

93
Q

C. 756.2: What role does the individual bishop exercise in his particular church as regards the “entire ministry of the word within it”?

A

He is the moderator.

94
Q

C. 757: Who helps the bishop in his role as moderator?

A

Can. 757 It is proper for presbyters, who are co-workers of the bishops, to proclaim the gospel of God; this duty binds especially pastors and others to whom the care of souls is entrusted with respect to the people committed to them. It is also for deacons to serve the people of God in the ministry of the word in communion with the bishop and his presbyterium.

95
Q

C. 757: Concerning the “ministry of the word of God”, what are its limits?

A

Strictly understood: All official teaching activity

Broadly understood: all acts of the Christian faithful as teachable moments

96
Q

C. 764: What is the nature of the preaching faculty?

A

It is specific and legal. It is not about the capacity to preach, but the legal ability to preach.

97
Q

C. 764/766: Distinguish between the difference between Bishops and Priests and then between Priests and Lay folks.

A

Can. 764 Without prejudice to the prescript of ⇒ can. 765, presbyters and deacons possess the faculty of preaching everywhere; this faculty is to be exercised with at least the presumed consent of the rector of the church, unless the competent ordinary has restricted or taken away the faculty or particular law requires express permission.

Can. 766 Lay persons can be permitted to preach in a church or oratory, if necessity requires it in certain circumstances or it seems advantageous in particular cases, according to the prescripts of the conference of bishops and without prejudice to ⇒ can. 767, §1.

98
Q

C. 767: What is the difference between preaching and the homily?

A

Strictly speaking, the homily is what happens during Mass. It is a type of preaching, much like a square is to a rectangle. It is proper to clerics. In other liturgical actions, there could be preaching, but not a homily. Lay people can preach, for example, when they are commissioned to do baptisms or weddings, but this is not a homily in the strict sense.

99
Q

C. 803.1: What is a Catholic school?

A

Can. 803 §1. A Catholic school is understood as one which a competent ecclesiastical authority or a public ecclesiastical juridic person directs or which ecclesiastical authority recognizes as such through a written document.

100
Q

C. 807: What is a Catholic university?

A

Can. 807 The Church has the right to erect and direct universities, which contribute to a more profound human culture, the fuller development of the human person, and the fulfillment of the teaching function of the Church.

101
Q

C. 815: What is an ecclesiastical university?

A

Can. 815 Ecclesiastical universities or faculties, which are to investigate the sacred disciplines or those connected to the sacred and to instruct students scientifically in the same disciplines, are proper to the Church by virtue of its function to announce the revealed truth.

102
Q

C. 816: Who is competent for ecclesiastical universities?

A

Can. 816 §1. Ecclesiastical universities and faculties can be established only through erection by the Apostolic See or with its approval; their higher direction also pertains to it.

§2. Individual ecclesiastical universities and faculties must have their own statutes and plan of studies approved by the Apostolic See.

103
Q

C. 817: What can ecclesiastical universities grant that no one else can, and by whose authority?

A

Can. 817 No university or faculty which has not been erected or approved by the Apostolic See is able to confer academic degrees which have canonical effects in the Church.
