Sometimes it happens that the name one receives at baptism, or the one one chooses when consecrated, imprints character. This is the case of Mons. Athanasius Schneider, auxiliary bishop of Astana. Despite being a “simple” auxiliary bishop, he honors that great Patriarch who defended the Nicene faith, that is, the Catholic faith, against the advance of Arianism, which seemed unstoppable. Indeed, Saint Athanasius was God's most effective instrument for the truth to prevail in the midst of what was the greatest crisis in the history of the Church until today. Today the crisis has a name: modernism. In InfoCatlica there are enough posts that it is not necessary to explain what it consists of. Well, in the same way that Saint Athanasius defended the faith delivered once and for all to the saints in the 4th century, Bishop Schneider defends it today, in the 21st century.
And he does so despite the obvious danger he runs by publicly correcting those who should be the main custodians of said faith. Here is the last example . To avoid accusations of being "pre-conciliar", it is worth remembering what the Second Vatican Council Country Email List said about the ministry of all bishops. I quote from Lumen Gentium, 23 : Each of the Bishops who is placed at the head of a particular Church exercises his pastoral power over the portion of the People of God entrusted to him, not over the other Churches nor over the universal Church. But as members of the Episcopal College and as legitimate successors of the Apostles, each and every one, by virtue of the institution and precept of Christ, are obliged to have for the universal Church that request which, although not exercised by an act of jurisdiction , contributes, however, greatly to the development of the universal Church . Therefore, all Bishops must promote and defend the unity of faith and the common discipline of the entire Church , instruct the faithful in the love of the entire mystical Body of Christ, especially the poor members, those who suffer.
and of those who are persecuted by justice (cf. Mt 5:10); Finally, promote every activity that is common to the entire Church, particularly in order to expand the faith and spread the light of full truth among all men. Bishop Schneider, who has the support of his archbishop, Bishop Tomash Peta , is not the only bishop who is carrying out what the council indicated, but he is undoubtedly one of the most “media” in that task. His prophetic voice not only defends the faith but exposes both those who fight it and, most especially, those who remain silent . This is why we must thank God for this bishop and ask him to grant others the grace to follow in his footsteps , without fear of suffering the consequences for being faithful to Christ in the midst of apostasy.
