Hierarchy: God's Sacred Order
On the Feast of Saints Peter & Paul we see there is hierarchy (i.e., Sacred Order) in God and in the world He created. It is very apparent in the Church with Her Holy Orders. When Her hierarchy is in place, the Council of Trent teaches in the Session on Holy Orders (XXIII) that She is as an army in battle array. She is the Church Militant... unstoppable. But when Her hierarchical nature is denied... deluded... leveled...attacked by Her own, She becomes the Church Suffering...or even the Church Impotent. This is readily seen when Her soldiers, often very eager to defend Her, instead of forming a firing line to attack the enemies of the Church form a CIRCLE and shoot and attack each other. Surely this is the diabolical disorientation mentioned by Sr. Lucia of Fatima. Let us not be counted among those who form this circle...let us, instead, love and honor and respect the hierarchy of the Church and the world as God made it so that He will honor us... and place us in His hierarchy of heavenly choirs.
