PSEUDO SACRAMENT

"Baptism in the Spirit" is an unbiblical and theologically clumsy term; portentous of an additional Sacrament. The Methodist John Fletcher called it the Second Blessing, but it was his colleague John Wesley who developed the theology for it. You see... it's not Catholic at all!
Baptism of the Spirit brings a multitude of spiritual and psychological risks as it generates a certain vulnerability to both internal and external suggestions. With judgment impaired, the individual is no longer able to distinguish between the authentic and the counterfeit.
This could well be the chief reason for its virulent spread; not even sparing the Pope’s personal theologian in the Vatican. To give you an idea of Father Raniero Cantalamessa’s apostate heresies: In his 2002 Good Friday Liturgy at the Vatican Father Cantalamessa said that other religions "are not merely tolerated by God, but positively willed by Him as an expression of the inexhaustible richness of His grace and His will for everyone to be saved." (Catholic News Service April 2, 2002) What about pagan religions? What about religions denying Christ Jesus as God? Does God will that too? What about religions denying the Sacraments? Does God will that too? What about the religions denying the Holy Mother’s perpetual virginity? Does God will that too? Indeed if that would be the case, then God would be willing all sorts of blasphemies. How is it possible for God to positively will error?
