Father D nagpalabas ng pahayag patungkol sa sinabi ni Father Ciano Ubod patungkol sa Obispo lang daw ang otorisado ng simbahan na magkwentas ng crucifix at sa ginagawa na rawng anting-anting ng simbahan ang crucifix sa dahilan na ito ay ginagamit bilang panlaban sa demonyo... nakalimutan yata ni Father Ciano kung ano ang purpose ng simbahan kung bakit pinapagamit sa mga members ang SACRAMENTALS...
Narito naman ang sagot ng simbahan sa sinabi ni Father Ciano Ubod:
Is it true that ordinary Catholic members are not allowed by the church to wear crucifix necklace aside from the bishop ?
Ans: Based on the Catholic Church's teachings as outlined in the provided references, the following can be said regarding the wearing of crucifix necklaces by ordinary Catholic members:
The Catholic Church does not prohibit ordinary Catholic members from wearing crucifix necklaces. The references indicate that the use of the cross and crucifix has been widespread among the faithful throughout the history of the Church, and has been used in various forms of devotion and liturgical practice.
The references mention that the cross and crucifix are important symbols of the Christian faith, representing Christ's victory over sin and death through his Passion and Resurrection. The cross is found in many places in Catholic churches, including on the altar, on the iconostasis, and crowning churches and chapels.
The references also note that the pectoral cross, worn by bishops and other prelates, is distinct from the simple cross that can be worn by the faithful. While the pectoral cross has specific liturgical significance and requirements, there is no indication that ordinary Catholics are prohibited from wearing crucifix necklaces as a form of personal devotion.
In summary, the Catholic Church does not restrict the wearing of crucifix necklaces to only bishops or other clergy. Ordinary Catholic members are free to wear crucifix necklaces as an expression of their faith, in line with the widespread use of the cross and crucifix in Catholic devotional and liturgical practices.
