Theywill,likewise,see thatthePope'saimincallingtheCouncilisnotto bringaboutunion,for whichthetimeisnotyet ripe,but,asheinsists,to preparethewayforunion inthefuturebyrenewing thelifeoftheChurch.This isthemeaningofthefollowingpassageinhisfirst encyclical:

"Thattheremaybeone foldandoneshepherd(John 10:16).Thisirresistibleassurancewasthecompelling motivewhichledUstoannouncepubliclyOurresolve tocallanEcumenicalCouncil.Bishopswillcometogethertherefromevery corneroftheworldtodiscussimportantmattersof religion.Butthemostpressingtopicswillbethose whichconcernthespread oftheCatholicFaith,the revivalofChristianstandardsofmorality,andthe bringingofecclesiastical disciplineintocloseraccord withtheneedsandconditionsofourtimes.Thisin itselfwillprovideanoutstandingexampleoftruth, unityandlove.Maythose whoareseparatedfromthis ApostolicSee,beholding thismanifestationofunity, derivefromittheinspirationtoseekoutthatunity whichJesusChristprayed forsoardentlyfromHis heavenlyFather."

Itiswellknownthatboth OrthodoxandProtestants wereinvitedtothefirst VaticanCouncil.Atthe time,manybishopshoped thattheCouncilmightbring aboutareunionofChristendom,areunionoftheOrthodoxChurcheswiththe RomanCatholic,andeven thereturnofProtestant communitiestotheCatholic unity.

InSeptember,1868,Pius IXaddressedanApostolic Brief"toallbishopsofthe EasternRitewhoarenotin unionwiththeApostolic See,"andaskedthemtoend thesplitbetweenEastand West,andtocometothe EcumenicalCouncil,astheir predecessorsdidtothoseof LyonsandFlorence.

Unfortunately,thisBrief appearedinthepressbefore itwasdeliveredtothe Easternpatriarchs;and whenthevicarapostolic handedittothePatriarchof Constantinople,thelatter repliedthathewouldcertainlyhaveacceptedand studieditcarefully,hadhe notalreadyseenitscontents inthepapers.Infact,he said,itputforthclaimsthe OrthodoxChurchcouldnot admit,andifthebishops hadcometotheCouncilthe oldtheologicalquarrels wouldhaverevived,theold woundsreopenedandthe existingdifferencesmade moreacute;theonlypossiblebasisforunionconsistedofthedoctrinesand customsprevailingbefore theschism.Thepatriarch returnedtheBriefunopened.

itisamatter,notofhuman learning,butofdivinerevelation.Thisistobefound onlyintheoneCatholicand ApostolicChurch,towhich dividedChristianitymust finditsway,ifitreally aspirestotheunityofthe Church."

"GODKNEWADAMWOULDSIN"

"WONDERING,"RANDWICK,writes:Godknew Adamwouldusehisfreewilltocommitsin.

R.:Beingomniscient,Godundoubtedlyknewthat. Butbeingomniscient,Heknewmuchelse'also.He knewthatAdamwouldusehisfreewill,notonlyto commitsin,butalsotorepentofhissinandtoserve Him.faithfullyinhisappoinledduties.SotheBookof WisdomtellsusthatGod"broughthimoutofhissin andgavehimpowertogovernallthings"(Wisd.10:2).

"WHYNOTARRANGEOTHERWISE?"

Q.:Godcouldhavecreatedamanwhowouldusehis freewillnottosin.

R.:Hedid;foreverymanwhohaseverresistedany temptationofanykindhasusedhisfreewillNOTto sin.Butyoumean,ofcourse,amanwhowouldusehis freewillNEVERtosin,sothathewouldnecessarily choosetodotherightthingratherthanthewrongthing. Butthatisacontradictioninterms,forfreewillmeans freedomfromthenecessityofactinginonewayrather thaninanother.EvenGodcannotdoself-contradictory things,notbecauseHeisnotomnipotent,butbecause nonsenseisstillnonsenseevenwhenonetalksitabout God.

"PARTOFGOD'SPLAN"

Q.:HavingregardtoGod'sforeknowledge,onemust considerAdam'ssintobepartofGod'splan.

R.:Hereyoumustmakeupyourmindtoitthat youarereallyoutofyourdepth.Itwouldbeimpossible foryounottobeoutofyourdepth.Youneednottake thattoomuchtoheart,forallhumanbeingsaremore orlessinthesamepredicamenthere.

Firstly,whenwespeakofGod's"foreknowledge," wearethinkingintermsofthetime-sequenceinwhich weareimmersed.Wecannotdootherwise,soit'snot ourfault.ButGodisoutsidetime.Heiseternal,not subjecttosuccessiveduration.InHimthereisno "before"and"after,"andthereforeno"foreknowledge" butjust"knowledge,"andknowledgeofeverything simultaneouslydespiteour"worm's-eyeviewofthings compellingustodividethemupinto"past,presentand future."

Secondly,eveninourinadequatethinkingofGodas knowingbeforehand,wetendtoconfuse"knowing" and"causing."Knowledgeassuchdoesnotcause events.Theyaretheeventswhicharethereasonfor one'sknowledgeofthem.

Thirdly,whateveroccursisundoubtedlypartofGod's totalplan.KnowingthatAdamwouldsin,Hetookthat intoconsiderationindecidingtoimplementHisplan. ButHedidnotplanthatAdamshouldsin.Heforbade Adamtosin,whichwouldbeabsurdwereAdamnot ablenottosin.

Inotherwords,itwasnotGod'spositivewillthat Adamshouldabusethefreedomgrantedtohim,but onlyGod'spermissivewillinthesensethatHewould notdepriveAdamofthegiftoffreewillratherthan permititsmisuse.

"GODTHEREFORERESPONSIBLE"

Q.:God'sdecisiontocreateAdam,therefore,makes GodresponsibleforAdam'ssin.

R:Youhaveomittedconsiderationofallthefactors Ihave'Mentionedandwhichexcludetheconclusionat whichyouherearrive.Fortherest,Iagreethatfrom ourpointofviewmysteryisinevitable.Butthereis anotherpointofview,theonlypointofviewthatreally matters,God'spointofview.Wehaven'tgotthatinall itsfullnessyet.Butwecangetlimitedglimpsesofit. enoughatalleventstoseethatmanistheagentofhis ownlapsesintosin.

Q.:Canyoucompleteaquotationformewhichhave half-forgotten,andwhich speaksofunityandliberty endingwith"inallthings charity"?
