On this week's episode of The Bishop Strickland Show, Bishop Joseph Strickland discusses his second pastoral letter, which was released earlier this month.
Catholic apologist and radio host Joe McClane revealed today that he has received an email from Bishop Strickland which said 'he would not just walk away' from his diocese, but that 'if the Pope removed him he would be obedient.'
'Dear Bishop Strickland, thank you, that you are resolved 'to serve the Lord, and not the time,' Bishop Schneider wrote in a newly released personal letter to Bishop Strickland.
Bishop Strickland warned in a new letter that the Church cannot offer Communion to people who persist in grave sin, including homosexuality, adultery, contraception, other sexual impurity, abortion, and living as the opposite sex.
'As God did not call men to be mothers, God did not call women to be fathers, and to be sacramentally ordained as a minister for Christ in His Church, Our Lord calls for men to be spiritual fathers and bridegrooms to His bride, The Church. This role can only be filled by one properly ordered to this role.'
For liberal Catholics, even the slightest praise for a critic of Pope Francis is ‘schism’ – but they have no problem promoting scandalous, heterodox figures.
Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò praised Bishop Joseph Strickland's pastoral letter criticizing the Synod on Synodality, with Viganò saying Strickland's words truly reflect his role as a 'successor of the apostles.'
