| | Primacy of the Roman Pontiff - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The primacy of the Roman pontiff is the monarchical authority of the bishop of Rome, from the Holy See, over the several Churches that compose the Catholic Church in the Latin and Eastern Rites. | | | It is also termed "papal primacy", [1] "primacy of Peter ", [2] or "Roman primacy"; [3] one might encounter "Peter in primacy over the universal Church," [4] "Successor of Peter", [5] and other related expressions. | | | The Eastern Orthodox churches consider that the Bishop of Rome has a primacy of honor that, since the East-West Schism, is no longer in force. |

| | Papal Primacy |
| | The primacy of the synod cannot, however, be conceived as power over the local church but rather as a charismatic instrument through which the churches of God witness and express their ontological unity in the truth of the gospel. | | | The primacy of the synod, through which the local churches witness and express their unity in the salvific truths of Christ, does not exclude the primacy of the first bishop or the metropolitan. | | | If primacy is defined as a form of power, then we encounter the question of whether in the Orthodox church there is a power superior to that of a bishop, i.e., a power over the bishop, and hence the church of which he is head. |

| | Papacy |
| | What is unquestioned is that by the 3d century the Roman bishops were representing themselves as having succeeded to the primacy that Peter had enjoyed among the apostles and as wielding within the universal church a primacy of authority in doctrinal matters. | | | That claim was matched, however, by the rival claim of the church at Constantinople to a jurisdictional primacy in the East equal to that of Rome in the West. | | | Pope Pius IX (1846-78) made this the program of his pontificate, codified it as a part of the Catholic faith in the decrees on papal primacy and infallibility in Vatican Council I (1869-70), and enforced it with an unprecedented degree of Roman centralization that characterized the Catholic Church into the 1960s. |

| | Finally, God's purpose in establishing the Primacy is to draw the faithful into a twofold unity with Christ — a unity of faith and charity — both of which are necessary for salvation. | | | The Papal Primacy is a work of charity guaranteeing unity of both truth and communion within the Church. | | | Vatican Council I, in fact, defines a twofold Primacy of Peter — one in papal teaching on faith and morals (the charism of infallibility), and the other a primacy of jurisdiction involving government and discipline of the Church — submission to both being necessary to Catholic faith and salvation. |

| | Stress on papal primacy led to exaggerated clout for a pope among equals |
| | The reason the bishops of Vatican I were far less nuanced in the definition of papal primacy was clearly recognized even by many contemporaries: the bishops’ theology of the church was defective. | | | I am amazed that whenever I explain the theological limits to papal power the same question arises: “If the pope does not have a direct line to God, who does?” This is linked with the assumption that pope and church are coterminous and that everything the pope says is absolute law for “good Catholics.” | | | It has led to the exercise of untrammelled papal power and has become a major stumbling block in ecumenical relationships with the Orthodox (who consider the definition to be heresy) and Protestants. |

| | Origins of Papal Primacy |
| | To establish her primacy among the churches of the Western half of the empire, the bishops of Rome relied on a letter written in 416 by Innocent I to the Bishop of Gubbio, to show how subordination to Rome had been established. | | | Since Rome encompassed much of the known world, her first task was to unite the city itself under one faith and form and language of worship, that is, bring all the congregations under the supervision of the bishop of Rome. |

| | The Nature of Papal Primacy |
| | According to divine revelation this is the formal meaning of the primacy of Peter: to be the perpetual and visible center and foundation of the community of Churches which is vivified by the Spirit of Christ. | | | The basis of the primacy is, on the one hand, its historical institution be Christ, but on the other it is the actual presence today of Christ in the primatial acts of the Pope. | | | It is what most brings out the fact that we are faced with a 'mystery of faith' and not with 'an organizational factor' in the Church ascertainable by the natural light of human reason. |

| | In reconciling the ideas of episcopal collegiality and papal primacy, the author draws fruitfully upon a too-little-known 1992 document of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Some Aspects of the Church Understood as Communion, as well as upon the thought of the outstanding contemporary moral theologian Dr. Germain Grisez. | | | Authority, especially papal authority, could never again play the role it had enjoyed in the preconciliar Church; decentralization of Church authority was surely one of those famous ideas whose time had come. | | | The papacy with its primacy is surely inescapably and forever an integral part of the Catholic Church. |

| | Papal Primacy |
| | As the function of the Primacy is to preserve the unity and solidarity of the Church; and as the Church, according to the will of her Divine Founder, is to continue substantially unchanged until the end of time for the perpetuation of the work of salvation, the Primacy also must be perpetuated. | | | That the primacy is to be perpetuated in the successors of Peter is, indeed, not expressly stated in the words of the promise and conferring of the Primacy by Our Lord but it flows as an inference from the nature and purpose of the Primacy itself. | | | On page 303 he says, "The unity both of faith and of communion is guaranteed by the Primacy of the Pope." In other words, the entire belief structure of Roman Catholicism and its being the Church of Jesus Christ depends on the primacy of the pope. |

| | Given the importance of tradition in the early Church and its abhorrence of doctrinal innovation, it strains credulity to assert the Roman primacy was a later innovation rather than a reflection of a more ancient understanding of the true structure of the Church. | | | Anti-Catholic apologists reject the notion the bishop of Rome ever held or was recognized as holding a primacy of universal jurisdiction in the early Church. | | | According to this view, certain decrees of the early councils undermine the historical basis for the doctrine of papal primacy. |
