Bp Fernandez of Spain on the Synod on Synodality (Orthodox bishops Part 16)

Thank God that there are bishops who are speaking out about the dangers of the Synod on Synodality.


* Inventing a new mission for the Church.

* Proposals that do not come from God.

* People who confuse the Holy Spirit with their own strange ideas.

* Departing from Tradition.

* Looking to a democratic process to reflect the will of the people.

* False doctrines being put forth.

* Proclaiming a false and worldly message instead of the gospel of Christ.


We already have the mission of the Church as put forth by Jesus himself, the founder and head of the Church. And we must be guided by the word of God (Bible), Tradition, and magisterial age-old teachings.

Spanish bishop warns some Synod on Synodality proposals try to ‘invent’ a new mission for the Church


Bishop Demetrio Fernández cautioned against ‘ambiguity’ in the synod on synodality, 'because there is no shortage of people who confuse the Holy Spirit with their own strange ideas.’




Emily Mangiaracina (LifeSiteNews) — A Spanish bishop warned that the Synod on Synodality’s first phase has included proposals that do not come from God.

Demetrio Fernández, the bishop of Córdoba, Spain, addressed problems of “discernment” he has observed in the Synod on Synodality in his weekly pastoral letter, originally reported on by ACI Prensa, Catholic News Agency (CNA)’s Spanish-language news partner.

Fernández cautioned that while the synod has “stirred up the waters of the Church,” it cannot now “invent” a new mission.

“It is the Holy Spirit who speaks in us. And here’s where the ambiguity can come in, because there is no lack of people who confuse the Holy Spirit with their own strange ideas,” wrote Fernández, according to CNA.

While some “erratic proposals” have been dismissed in the first phase of the synod, Fernández accused others, which have been “proposed by a small minority and immediately included in the concluding documents,” of “lacking the most elementary discernment.”
