Billot: Those Outside The Church Are Incapable Of Ordinary Jurisdiction
Cardinal Louis Billot was a French Jesuit and a prominent theologian who died in 1931. Of course he was not infallible, but what he writes here is perfectly in accord with definitive Catholic teaching. Itâs also highly relevant to our current situation.
Cardinal Louis Billot, Tractatus De Ecclesia Christi, 1909, Vol. 1, Q. 7 De Ecclesiae Membris, Thesis XI, #2, p. 300: âFor whoever exists outside the Body of the Church, by that fact itself is made incapable of all ordinary jurisdiction, for instance episcopal. The reason is that he who has ordinary or truly episcopal jurisdiction obtains the dignity of a head, and no one can be the head even of a particular church if he is not a member of the Church.â
