THE NEVV HERESIE OF THE JESUITS Publickly maintain'd at PARIS in the Colledge of CLERMONT by Conclusions Printed 12. Decemb. 1661. Denounced to all the BISHOPS OF FRANCE Translated out of the French Original Lucae 5. 39. Nemo bibens vetus statim vult novum dicit enim vetus melius est LONDON Printed in the Year of our Lord 1662. THE NEW HERESIE OF THE JESUITS Publikely maintained at Paris in the Colledge of Clermont by Conclusions Printed the 12 of December 1661. Denounced to all the Bishops of France AS it is the duty of Bishops to cut off whilst they are yet in the bud the Errors that tend to the ruine of Faith so is it no less the part of Divines to make Discovery of them and stir up their pastoral vigilance by giving them a timely advice thereof For which Reason My Lords you will not I am confident disapprove the Information given you of a New Heresie publikely maintained by the Jesuites in their Colledge of Paris by Conclusions printed and defended the 12 of December past which bear in Front this Title Assertiones Catholicae de Incarnatione contra saeculorum omnium ab Incarnato verbo praecipuas haereses Catholike Assertions of the Incarnation against the principal Heresies of all Ages since Christ Whereby they sufficiently intimate that excepting some subtleties of the Schools they would have us take for Catholike truths whatever else they advance in opposition to these Heresies They propose then for the Heresie of the 10 th Age the Schism of the Grecians and pretend by the following words to prescribe us what we ought to beleeve that we fall not into this Heresie X. SAECULUM Romanae Ecclesiae Caput contra Graecos Schismaticos HOc tandem saeculo Schisma Phocii invalcscens Graecos ab Ecclesiae capite dis-junxit Christum nes ita caput agnoscimus ut illius regimen dum in caelos abiit primum Petro tum d●inde successoribus commiserit eandem quam habebat ipse infallibilitatem concesserit quoties ex Cathedrâ loquerentur Datur ergo in Ecclesia Romana Controversiarum Fidei Judex infallibilis etiam extra Concilium generale tam in questionibus Juris quam Facti Vnde post Innocentii X. Alexandri VII Constitutiones fide divinâ credi potest librum cui titulus est Augustinus Jansenii esse haereticum quinque Propositiones exeo decerptas esse Jansenii in sensu Jansenii damnatas Propugnabuntur Deo duce auspice Virgine in Aula Collegii Claromontani Societatis Jesu die 12 Decembris Anno 1661. X. AGE The Head of the Roman Church against the Schismatick Grecians IT was in this Age that the Schism of Photius growing strong cut off the Grecians from the Head of the Church for our parts we acknowledge Jesus Christ to be in such sort the Head that he hath left the government first to S. Peter and afterwards to his Successors and that he hath bequeathed unto them as often as they shall speak out of their Chair the same infallibility which he himself had Wherefore there is in the Church of Rome an infallible judge of Controversies of Faith even out of a General Council as well in Questions of right as matters of Fact for which reason now after the Constitutions of Innocent X and Allexander VII one may believe with Divine Faith that the Book of Jansenius intituled Augustinus is Heretical and that the five Propositions extracted out of it are of Jansenius and condemned in his sense This Conclusion contains two parts One the Primacy of the Pope in which all Catholicks agree The other the Infallibility which the Jesuits attribute to him Nor is the question concerning that Infallibility which some Divines maintain and which regards only the judgements of Popes touching the truths revealed by God in the Holy Scripture and Tradition It is well known what the opinions of the Gallican Church and School of Paris are upon this Subject and what is to be understood by their words Sententia Parisiensium when one meets with them in the Books even of Jesuits upon this matter It is also known that those among some modern Doctors who would be most favourable to Popes as Dr. Du Val were nevertheless of Opinion that it is not a point of Faith that the Pope is Infallible Non est de Fide summum Pontificem esse infallibilem and that the contrary opinion is neither erroneous nor rash Non est erroneum neque temerarium temeritate opinionis dicere summum pontificem in decernendo errare posse But these same Divines how passionate soever they were to exalt the authority of the Sovereign Bishops do acknowledge as a thing certain unquestionable and agreed on by all Catholicks that in matters of fact they are not infallible but may be deceived and so really have been in sundry occasions All Catholicks are of Agreement sayes Cardinal Bellarmin that the Pope acting as Pope with advice of his Council nay even of a general Council may be deceived in particular affairs depending on the information and attestation of Men. And applying this general Maxime to a particular fact altogether conformable to that of Jansenius to wit whether the Heresie of the Monothelites were contain'd in the Letters of Honorius as the VI general Council confirmed by so many Popes had determined A General Council sayes he that is a lawful one cannot erre in the definition of dogmatical points of Faith wherein the VI Council likewise was free from error but it may erre in questions of Fact Generale Concilium legitimum non potest errare ut neque erravit hoc sextum in dogmatibus Fidei definiendis tamen errare potest in questionibus de Facto And Cardinal Baronius sayes the same upon the same subject of the sixth Oecumenical Council The Condemnation even of General Councils is not received with so much rigour in what concerns mens persons and their writings For no man doubts but that whoever he be he may be deceived in matters of Fact in which occasion the saying of St. Paul is appliable we can do nothing against truth but for truth In his enim quae facti sunt unumquemque contingere posse falli nemini dubium est All other Divines even the more wedded to the interest of the Court of Rome have hitherto contain'd themselves within these bounds But the Jesuits will neither admit Bounds nor Examples in their excesses and extravagancie● It is not enough for them to make the Pope infallible in the manner as some other Divines have done they must needs have it that Jesuus Christ hath given him the same infallibility which Himself enjoyed here on earth and as this infallibility of Jesus Christ reached to all things and not only to matters revealed but also to such as till then had not been reveal'd and which he revealed by uttering them so they will have the Pope to become infallible not only in proposing to the Church the truths comprised in Divine Revelation but also
