Vatican I Infallibly declared that God has revealed Himself and that everyone can know the

True God and the Matters concerning Him with certitude and no intermingling of error.
The idea that there is someone somewhere who in his present state cannot really know the
True God and the True Faith, or that suffers from an ignorance that so firmly ecludes his
knowledge of God that it is invincible to both the man and to God Himself, is an eplicit
and diabolical heresy. It is a direct, if not word for word, denial of this declaration of the
Vatican !ouncil. It is manifestly another pathetic attempt to ecuse man before God
without the intervention of God"s !hrist, or the #aith which God established, calls each
and every man to embrace, and without which nobody at all can ever be saved$
%The same Holy Mother Church holds and teaches that God, the source and end of all things,
can be known
with certainty from the consideration of created things,
by the natural power of human reason : ever since the creation of the world, his
invisible nature has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made
!"#$&
'It was, however, pleasing to His wisdom and goodness to reveal Himself and the eternal laws of
His will to the human race by another, and that a supernatural, way. This is how the Apostle puts
it : In many and various ways God spoke of old to our fathers by the prophets but in these last
days He has spoken to us by a !on "#$% .%t is indeed thanks to this divine revelation, that those
matters concerning God which are not of themselves beyond the scope of human reason, can,
even in the present state of the human race, be known
by everyone
without difficulty,
with firm certitude and
with no intermingling of error
%t is not because of this that one must hold revelation to be absolutely necessary& the reason is
that God directed human beings to a supernatural end, that is a sharing in the good things of
God that utterly surpasses the understanding of the human mind& indeed eye has not seen,
neither has ear heard, nor has it come into our hearts to conceive what things God has
prepared for those who love Him !"'$ . ()* +m ), ,-. )/. Heb ), )0,. )1. ) !or ,, 23 4The
Vatican !ouncil, 5ession Three, !hapter Two. 6n +evelation7 4 emphasis mine 8 M.5.G.7
Here we see it plainly and infallibly declared9 The 6ne and only True and :iving God the
Trinity can be known with certainty, and this has been so since the creation of the world 4it
has ever been this way$7. ;ut God went even further in revealing Himself to each and every
man. God has revealed Himself in the 5on, the incarnate God <esus !hrist$ It is here
infallibly declared that due to this further and complete revelation of Himself to man, God
has so revealed Himself that matters concerning the 6ne, True God 4His 6ne True =erson,
His 6ne True #aith, His 6ne True !hurch, etc.7 now, in the present, can be known by every
person alive, without difficulty, and with firm certitude, and with no intermingling of
error$ =ius I> could not have used language more clear in infallibly declaring that ideas
like invincible ignorance 4the complete inability to know God and His True #aith7 as
pertains to the salvation of souls, is utterly foreign to !atholic thought and ?ivine ?octrine.
+egarding %invincible ignorance&, we see here in this infallible declaration that no man can
use such an ecuse 8 because nothing is invincible to God, nothing$ God does not leave
good0willed and sincere men in darkness, He does not %rob& sincere seekers of His Grace.
He will give all of the Graces that He has promised to those good willed and sincere men
who seek Him, whether they are on a remote Island is no matter and certainly not an
%invincible& situation to the :iving God. It is the ones who promote this folly of invincible
ignorance who limit God"s power and Grace, as if God is unable or unwilling to answer a
contrite man with His Graces, that He has already promised. It does not matter if the man
is an idol worshipper who lives on a deserted Island in a cave ,-- feet below the earth. If he
becomes good willed and sincerely repents and seeks God, responding to the first Graces
which God has given him, then God will give Him the graces which He has promised and
the man will come to know the True God, the True #aith, and will participate and function
in the True !hurch. ?istance and isolation is no matter to the 6mniscient, 6mnipotent
God, and certainly is not %invincible& to Him.
In essence what these invincible ignorance heretics are promoting is innocent ignorance
8 meaning it is not man(s fault. He again is proclaimed innocent of any wrong doing in the
matter. It is @ust another transparent subterfuge 8 another proclamation that man is
somehow innocent before God and God cannot charge him with the crime. It is clear that
this is the case when one listens to these heretics debate ;rother =eter. They are maliciously
intent on this case for the innocence of man to the etent that they trample the truth of
!hrist to promote it. Ahen ;rother =eter catches them in these debates they become
furious 8 because the truth which ;rother =eter puts forth =+6VB5 that they are not, and
no man is, innocent before God$ This the most ?IC;6:I!C: heresy 8 and I continually
hear it, more and more people are embracing it, and it is the flagship doctrine of most C::
the false traditionalists, both clerics and laymen.
Cccording to the infallibly worded declaration above, God reveals Himself to man in a way
%that utterly surpasses the understanding of the human mind&, leaving Himself unrevealed
to absolutely no one$
