How is it possible to refuse a law coming from the Church, such as the change of “for many” into “for all” in the consecration of the Precious Blood at Mass?
This particular change in the words of consecration, the most serious in the New Mass, was not a part of the New Mass as “promulgated” (Note that properly speaking it was not really promulgated, both from the point of view of the formalities involved and from that of content) by Pope Paul VI on April 3, 1969 in his letter Missale Romanum. In the Latin text the words “for many” are retained. This change is consequently one of translation. However, it was manifestly not by accident that in all the modern European languages except Portuguese and Polish this same “error” of translation was committed. It is a manifest effort to undermine the clear teaching found in all three synoptic Gospels that the efficacity of Christs shedding His blood is limited to many souls, and not to all souls. The reason behind this change is consequently the modernist teaching on universal salvation, according to which Christ saved all human nature by his death on the Cross, whether people know it or not.
