Why Change the Catholic Church Prayer for the conversion of the Jews after the Second Vatican Council?
Pre-Vatican II
Let us pray also for the Jews: that almighty God may remove the veil from their hearts, so that they too may acknowledge Jesus Christ our Lord. Let us pray. Let's kneel. Arise. Almighty and eternal God, DOST also not exclude from Thy mercy the Jews: hear our prayers, we offer for the blindness of that people, recognizing the light of your truth, which is Christ, which may be delivered from their darkness . Through the same Lord Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Post-Vatican II
Let us pray for the Jewish people, the first to hear the word of God, they can continue to grow in the love of his name and in faithfulness to his covenant. Almighty and eternal God, long ago you gave your promise to Abraham and his posterity. Listen to your Church as we pray for people who for the first time its own can reach the fullness of redemption. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
- Did The Catholic Church Used To Be More Strict Before The Second Vatican Council?
- Can you see the similarities between the Apostles' Creed of the Western Church and the Arian Catholic creed?
- Do we need a new Ecumenical Council For The Roman Catholic Church as Vatican III to make way for the reforms?
- What are some of the ways in which Vatican II was evident during the Catholic Mass?
- Why make a New Catholic Church Mass after Vatican II?
I'm Jewish, for us, both sentences are pretty useless. The idea that we do not have access to God is a bit silly, in our view. If that is what they want Catholics to pray, which is undoubtedly to them, but we do not need your prayers - never, and never
What would make the Jewish people anyway? In his false gospel of works ( "sacraments") that leads to eternal lake of fire? (Galatians 1:6-9).
The Jewish people need the true gospel, not a false gospel, like all people.
Cuz they do things like that.
