VATICAN CONGREGATION FOR THE DOCTRINE OF THE FAITH

TITLE : DECLARATION "DOMINUS IESUS" (Jesus Is Lord)

SUBTITLE: ON THE UNICITY AND SALVIFIC UNIVERSALITY OF JESUS
CHRIST AND THE CHURCH

IV. UNICITY AND UNITY OF THE CHURCH

SECTION IV. 17. Therefore, there exists a single Church of Christ, which subsists in the Catholic Church,
governed by the Successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him. 58The Churches which, while not
existing in perfect communion with the Catholic Church, remain united to her by means of the closest bonds, that
is, by apostolic succession and a valid Eucharist, are true particular Churches. 59 Therefore, the Church of Christ
is present and operative also in these Churches, even though they lack full communion with the Catholic Church,
since they do not accept the Catholic doctrine of the Primacy, which, according to the will of God, the Bishop of
Rome objectively has and exercises over the entire Church. 60

The Sovereign Pontiff John Paul II, at the Audience of June 16, 2000, granted to the undersigned Cardinal Prefect of
the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, with sure knowledge and by his apostolic authority, ratified and
confirmed this Declaration, adopted in Plenary Session and ordered its publication.

Rome, from the Offices of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, August 6, 2000, the Feast of the
Transfiguration of the Lord.

Apostolic Succession is the unbroken line of succession beginning with the Apostles and
perpetuated through the bishops, considered essential for orders and sacraments to be valid.

 VALIDITY AND LICITNESS OF HOLY ORDERS

“Every validly consecrated bishop, including heretical, schismatic, simonistic or

excommunicated bishops, can validly dispense the Sacrament of Order, provided that he has
the requisite intention, and follows the essential external rite (set. Certa). Cf. D 855, 860; CIC
2372.” Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma by Dr. Ludwig Ott, 1952, p. 456.

Canon 1012. The minister of sacred ordination is a consecrated bishop.

"The ordinary minister is every consecrated bishop and no one else [Council of Trent, sess.
23, c.7.]. Therefore even a schismatic bishop or one who has been degraded or one who has
been declared irregular, etc. may ordain validly, provided that his own consecration was
valid and that he uses the essential matter and form." Handbook of Moral Theology, by
Dominic M. Prummer, O.P., page 383, The Minister of Valid Ordination.

"A validly consecrated bishop can validly confer all orders from the minor orders to the
episcopate inclusively ... For this reason the ordinations performed by the bishops of the Carlos
Duarte Costa episcopal lineage are consider valid." A Practical Commentary on the Code of
Canon Law, revised and enlarged edition, by Rev. Stanislaw Woywod, OFM, LLB. Vol. 1, Sec.
881 P. 558, 1948.

Canon 845 §1. Since the sacraments of baptism, confirmation, and orders imprint a
character, they cannot be repeated.

Canon 845.1 tells us that the sacrament of orders, like the sacraments of baptism and
confirmation, imprints a character on a person’s soul. It can never be erased (which is
incidentally why these sacraments can be validly administered only once). And since it can
never be erased, a bishop who falls away from the Church is still a bishop. And since he is still
a bishop, he can still validly administer Catholic sacraments, even if he has left the Catholic
Church! …

xxx. But like it or not, he really can ordain true Catholic priests and consecrate real
Catholic bishops. Source: https://catholicexchange.com/140221

xxx Despite canon law can be implied of the 1917, the 1983 canon law has no effect,
but in regards validity of the transmission of Holy Orders of the spirit.

The Augustinian Theory effectively holds that valid episcopal ordination confers an indelible
character that is not affected by any schismatic or heretical act or excommunication taken in
response thereto or for any other reason. Accordingly, a validly ordained priest, once validly
ordained to the episcopate, retains his capacity to exercise that order, though he may have been
deprived juridically of the office or jurisdiction by which he performed episcopal acts. The
latter considerations affect only the licitness of his acts.

Validity and Illicitness Defined:

Illicitness is fully within the power of Canon Law to determine....but in(validity) is in

the power of God the Holy Spirit, and so validity occurs purely in the Order of Grace, and
Canon Law can not touch, change, affect, or determine that in any way.

 VALIDATION OF BISHOP NEVILLE DAVID ANDERSON’s
APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION

MONSIGNOR & CANON LAWYER ANSELMO PAMINTUAN DECREE OF

VALIDITY OF BISHOP NEVILLE ANDERSON’S APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION

https://catholicchurchofenglandandwales.com/msgr-a-pamintuan-pc-jcd-1

Rev'd Monsignor. Anselmo Pamintuan studied Philosophy and Theology at Saint

Vincent Ferrer Seminary in Iloilo City in 1970. He was ordained a priest at the age of 23 years
on March 30th 1974 by Most Rev'd. Gregorio Espiga. OAR. Vicar Apostolic of Palawan.

He took up Canon Law at the Pontifical University Santo Tomas from 1983 up to 1985.
He was a member of the CLSP (Canon Law Society of the Philippines). He was made a
Monsignor by the full authority of the Pontiff of Rome. (The Roman Catholic Church is
organized into districts known as dioceses. Each diocese is led by a type of priest called a
bishop, and all of the parish priests within a diocese are under the authority of its bishop. When
the bishop of a diocese believes that one of the priests under his authority should be honored
for his exceptional service to the church, he can nominate that priest for the title of monsignor.
The Pope reviews the nomination and makes the final decision. If he decides to grant the title
of monsignor to the nominee, the Secretariat of State of the Vatican honors the new monsignor
with a formal diploma).

He was a Roman Catholic Vatican II priest who lived in full harmony with the Roman
Catholic Vatican II Church and the Popes of Rome. He was very close and was going to become
one with the priests and bishops of BCR before he suddenly passed away.
