Conc. Trent. Sess. ult. Founds this worship on this Doctrine, That the Saints are in Heaven and reign with Christ. This is the Foundation of all, saith Bellarmin de Sanct. Beat. in Praef. For therefore the Souls of the Prophets and Patriarchs were not so worshipped and called upon, as we n•w worship and call upon the Apostles and Martyrs; because they were yet kept shut up in the infernal Prisons. Now that all deceased Christians are shut up in like manner, (the Saints not excepted,) was the Doctrine of the Old Roman Church. For thus she Prayed; Lord remember all thy Servants and All thy Handmaids, who have gone before us with the sign of Faith, and who sleep• the sleep of •eace. Grant to all that rest in Christ a place of Refreshing, and of Light and Peace, we humbly beseech thee. Liturg. Gregor. in Bibl. Patr. Gr. Lat. Tom. II. p. 129. C. Therefore also, in their Masses for any Bishop that died, they prayed thus; Grant, O Lord, that this Oblation may profit the Soul of thy servant and Bishop Such a one. Gregor. Sacram. super Oblata, Edit. Menardi. p. 227. and Edit. Pamelii. p. 38•. And thus they Prayed yearly for Pope Le• I. on his day Iune, 28. as appears in Edit. Menardi. p. 112. and thus for Pope Gregory I. on his day, Ma•th 12. as appears in Edit. Pamelii. p. 209. But in the now Roman Missal all these Prayers are changed. And great reason they should be so, when the Church has changed her Doctrine. For as the Gloss saith of Le•, Antiently the Church prayed for him, but Now he prayeth for us, and so the Church Office was changed. Gregor. Decr. III. 41. 6. Tertio Loco. Therefore now the Prayer on those Saints-days is thus; Grant, Lord, that this Oblation may profit Vs by the Intercession of thy servant Le•, or Gregory. And yet in the Office pro defunctis; and that as well for any other, as for a Bishop; the words are still, (what they used for those Saints in former times,) Grant, O Lord, that this Oblation may pr••it the Soul of thy Servant Such a one. And for that Prayer above-mentioned, in Canon Missae Commem. pro defunctis, they first left out those words All thy Servants and All thy Hand-maids; and Prayed thus, Lord remember Them who have gone before us, as it standeth in Ed. Pamelii. p. 182. But the word Them extending to Saints as well as others, they altered it again, Remember Lord thy Servants and Hand-maids N. and N. who are gone before us. But still the end of that Prayer remains as it was, Grant All that rest in Christ a place of refreshing, and of light and peace, we humbly beseech thee. They that Made this Prayer did not believe that the Saints were already in Heaven; and therefore they knew not the Foundation of these Prayers to Saints that are now used in the Roman Church. |
