Dr. John Bergsma

And I'm not saying that there's any error, but there's always safety.

There's always safety.

Popes, yeah, popes can err in their personal opinions

We understand the infallibility of the Pope to imply in two basic situations.

There's the ordinary exercise of infallibility.

When the successor of Peter reaffirms what has always been taught by the church, that is infallible.

That's the ordinary exercise of infallibility.

And the extraordinary or unusual exercise of infallibility is when he makes a self-conscious defining act in the area of doctrine.

And there's been a development of what the customary external signs are when the Pope wants to make such a decision.

So there's language and circumstances that have become customary for- We declare.

We declare, we define, et cetera.

So the Pope can indicate externally where it is his intent to make a formal declaration and definition of doctrine.

He did not do that.

He hasn't done that.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I want to really encourage people sign up.

I believe there's a discount on an all access annual membership, uh, for pints washers.

That's available at stpaulcenter.com slash pints.

Yep.
