In his 1995 article on Romans 9–11, the future Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Tucho Fernández, wrote that "all will be saved."
His goal is to “relativize the very basis from which questionable doctrines were elaborated,” wherein the "questionable doctrines" is Catholicism as developed from Scripture by St. Augustine, the Fathers, and the Scholastics, notes ElWanderer.com on June 23.
Fernández believes that Augustine's teaching "requires a revision" and later claims that Augustine's doctrine "did not offer a complete and harmonious vision of God, man and Christian experience."
"I know God's concrete plans"
Tucho's most extraordinary claim is: "I firmly trust that all will be saved; a trust based not on a desire, nor on my compassion for men, but on what I know of God and of His concrete plans thanks to His Revelation."
ElWanderer notes that the Church has never received a revelation that all men will be saved. On the contrary.
The Council of Trent teaches that no Christian may claim certainty concerning his own predestination.
The Catechism teaches: "The teaching of the Church affirms the existence of hell and its eternity." It also teaches: "To die in mortal sin without repenting and accepting God's merciful love means remaining separated from Him forever."
Another well-known method of Tucho: He cites St. Thomas Aquinas where convenient while ignoring his explicit teaching on reprobation, predestination prior to foreseen merits, and the infallibility of God's decree.
