Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - October 14, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news these Days by George. Sokolsky the i Uch of Rome whenever a new Pope is to elected interest usually turns to the strength of the roman Catholic Church which survives attack from outside or weakness from within. As history is now written this is a Young religion not quite 2,000 years old. It is an outgrowth of the appearance of Jesus in Jerusalem and the spread of his doctrine by Paul and his associates among the Peoples of the roman Empire. Most of the Early churches were actually in jewish synagogues some of the synagogues going Over to the new doctrine altogether some divided their buildings Between those who accepted the Messiah and those who rejected him. Peter preached the gospel in Rome and became the first Bishop of Rome. That does not mean that that was the first Christian Church for there were earlier churches in Palestine Syria Greece Etc. In the Early Christian Era the Bishop was the head of his particular Church and there were differences of opinion As to Dogma and Church government among the various Bishops. In the Hope of ending these controversies As Between the unitarians and the trinitarians the Council of Nicea was held in 325 Ai. The nicene Creed established the Basic Dogma of the Christian Church. The word. Pope is perhaps one of the simplest in any language. It comes from the i atm word papa and Means father the Pope while is regarded As the father of Christendom is also a priest and in nearly All languages a Catholic priest is called father. According to Catholic doctrine it was Jesus s purpose that the successor to Peter should the head of the Church and therefore the Bishop of Rome holds this position and is usually referred to As the Pope or the holy father. Non Catholic historians have taken the View that it was the decision of the roman emperor to accept christianity As a state religion and thus established tile Bishop of Rome As the head of the Church. It is easily found in Church history that in the earliest period of the Church certainly by the second and third centuries other Christian communities referred doctrinal matters to Home for decision. Thus establishing the authority of Hie Bishop of Rome by precedent perhaps the Cornerstone of the organization it the Catholic Church is the doctrine of the infallibility of the Pope in matters of Faith and morals. Often referred to in Early writings confirmed by the Council of Florence in 1439 and reconfirmed by tile Constitution of july 18. 1870 which finally settled also the matter of Primacy. It is the infallibility of the Pope in matters of Faith and morals which makes the roman Catholic Church Universal in organization and Dogma archbishop Paul you pin who is chinese is at Home in a Catholic Church or Catholic Community in any part of the world. There i one Church one Liturgy one of Rule the exception being. Of course the Eastern rites. When the Pope Speaks sex Cathedra it is with the full authority of the Church because Speaks from the Quot chair of there was a time when the Church was an important temporal ruler and exercised great worldly Powers. Today All that is left of that is the very Small area called Vatican City and the Popes summer Palace nevertheless without the use of Force or the display of Power the Pope exercises More influence than Ever. no longer Calls upon any government to assist him to establish his Power but by moral suasion by i sobriety of his life and his Devotion to to lie appeals to the minds and hearts of men among recent Popes. Leo Xiii. Pius i and Pius Xii. Were particularly significant in their capacity to introduce moral factors into world affairs. Although tin roman Catholic Church has Glen lost adherents As for instance the split Between constantinople and Rome or tile to Raton it has never encountered a situation As difficult As the present one when atheistic communism has made the Church of Rome its special target and Hies devoted itself to an invasion of roman Catholic areas particularly Italy and France. The Church s greatest loses have been such countries As Poland. Hungary and Czechoslovakia which were profoundly Catholic before the Kremlin took Over in this struggle the Church retaliates with the inspire Fon of the Miracle of Fatima.
