WASHINGTON (AP) -- The nation's Roman Catholic bishops voted Wednesday to join a new alliance that would be the broadest Christian group ever formed in the United States, linking American evangelicals and Catholics in an ecumenical organization for the first time. The alliance, called Christian Churches Together in the U.S.A., is set to kick off next year. It would include mainline Protestants, Orthodox Christians, and black and other minority churches. With about 67 million U.S. members, the Catholic Church would be the largest denomination.

Comment:All over the internet you can find articles about this amazing act of heresy by the U.S. Bishops in communion with John Paul II. The Novus Ordo Bishops have officially joined “Christian Churches Together in the U.S.A,” a Protestant communion which is part of the National Council of Churches.  This act is definitely on a level with the incredible Joint Declaration with the Lutherans on Justification and John Paul II’s repeated acts of repudiating proselytizing the Eastern Schismatics. 

With this agreement, the Novus Ordo Church in the U.S.A. has officially repudiated any claim to be the one true Church of Jesus Christ, and has admitted that it is just one of many heretical denominations.  It also has officially recognized that the Protestant and schismatic sects which belong to “Christian Churches Together in the U.S.A” are part of the true Church of Jesus Christ.  This is a fact, and anyone who denies this or tries to lessen the significance of this act is a heretical liar who is used by the devil. If the Novus Ordo Bishops did not officially recognize these (non-Catholic) heretical sects and denominations as part of the Christian Church, they would never join this heretical group.

Thus, those who are aware of this act and continue to regard the Novus Ordo Bishops in communion with John Paul II as the true hierarchy are formal heretics; they are nothing more than Protestants.  Also, those who, after knowing this information, support a priest which recognizes these Bishops as the hierarchy or John Paul II as the Pope (such as the Fraternity of St. Peter, the Society of St. Pius X, all indult and non-sedevacantist priests) sin mortally and support Protestantism.  Those who are aware of this declaration and deny that the sect of John Paul II is formally heretical are liars in the service of the devil.  Wake up and take a stand – this is out of control.  To name just a few, we denounce the apostates at Catholic Family News, The Remnant, the Society of St. Pius X, Bob Sungenis, John Vennari, Michael Matt, Chris Ferrara, Thomas Woods, Atila Guimaraes, Marian Horvat, Michael Cain, Jacob Michael, “Fr.” Nicholas Gruner, “Fr.” Paul Leonard Kramer, “Fr.” Patrick Perez, Fr. Paul Trinchard, Fr. James Wathen, Fr. Moderator, St. Benedict Center, Catholic Answers, EWTN, etc., etc., etc., all of whom obstinately recognize the Novus Ordo Protestant Bishops as their hierarchy and are therefore heretics no different from Protestants.  They are in communion with a heretical denomination.  Anyone who knows or has contact with these heretics should denounce them as well.

The heretical communion which the Novus Ordo “Church” just joined is called “Christian Churches Together in the U.S.A.”  It, in turn, is part of the National Council of Churches.  Here is the Profession of Faith of the National Council of Churches:

Statement of Faith: "The National Council of Churches is a community of Christian communions, which, in response to the gospel as revealed in the Scriptures, confess Jesus Christ, the incarnate Word of God, as Savior and Lord. These communions covenant with one another to manifest ever more fully the unity of the Church. Relying upon the transforming power of the Holy Spirit, the communions come together as the Council in common mission, serving in all creation to the glory of God."   --from the Preamble to the NCC Constitution.

This means that the members of the National Council of Churches share a communion covenant with all of the other denominations and recognize all the other denominations as manifesting the unity of the Church.  Nothing could be more heretical.

Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (# 9), June 29, 1896: “The practice of the Church has always been the same, as is shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers, who were wont to hold as outside Catholic communion, and alien to the Church, whoever would recede in the least degree from any point of doctrine proposed by her authoritative Magisterium.”

Pope St. Leo the Great, Sermon 129: “Wherefore, since outside the Catholic Church there is nothing perfect, nothing undefiled… we are in no way likened with those who are divided from the unity of the Body of Christ; we are joined in no communion.”

One final note: the AP report for this act notes:

“With about 67 million U.S. members, the Catholic Church would be the largest denomination.”

This reminds us of the important point that the Novus Ordo Bishops have entered all the members of their churches, not just themselves, into this Protestant Communion.  This means that if you recognize John Paul II as the Pope – and therefore his Bishops as the hierarchy – YOU have been entered into the Protestant “Christian Churches Together in the U.S.A.”  You are part of it, unless you completely denounce John Paul II and his apostate Bishops as non-Catholics with no authority whatsoever.
