Cardinal Hollerich: Church Blessings for Same-Sex Unions Are Not a Settled Matter

[Michie]

The Vatican’s doctrine office has stated that the Church does not have the power to bless the unions of same-sex couples.


In an interview with Vatican media, Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich said he believes Church blessings for same-sex unions, which the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has ruled against, is not a settled matter.

The cardinal’s answer came in response to an interview question about the decision last month by Belgium’s Catholic bishops to support the possibility of blessings for unions of same-sex couples — in defiance of the Vatican.


“Frankly, the question does not seem decisive to me,” Cardinal Hollerich, archbishop of Luxembourg and a Jesuit, told L’Osservatore Romano in an interview also published on Vatican News Oct. 24.

The Vatican’s doctrine office weighed in on the issue in March 2021, clarifying that the Church does not have the power to bless the unions of same-sex couples.

As a prince of the Church, he should know better.

James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. What gaineth you the whole world if you lose your soul? 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Antichrist is coming after Christian’s; and the pulpit of so Called Christian churches is where he will/has begun and why judgement will begin at the pulpit and the false teachings of leaders- 1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? Rev 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. (dogs here is Gr. kuon) and implies a temple male prostitute of Ashtoreth who was a Phoenician fatality goddess worshiped in Cyprus. Look around does anyone see what’s going on in their neighborhood church today, where they have allowed drag queen shows in their houses of worship. Invited homosexuals as preachers, deacons and leaders of their church. You have small highly susceptible children seeing this and thinking it is ok because, if the House of GOD would allow it, it must be ok. They look up at their parents and adults to guide their fragile minds; but when they themselves are confused because of what they are being taught then they don’t stand a chance. Rather these churches today realize or not they are falling right in line as to Asherah worshipers, mutilations of their bodies as going through the transgenderism world today, murdering babies under the act of abortion where in some blue states as California carry up to day of birth (child sacrifice)and want to pass a law to murder them even past birth. If people sit back and do nothing in their own church while allowing this you are partakers of their sin and will be judged so. Jude 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
