Description
Summary:This essay analyzes papal governance of sacramental matters from the pontificates of Paul III to Benedict XIV, providing an overview of positions adopted over the long term pertaining to sacraments for the faithful in the New World. It also examines the manner and timing of the construction of the magisterial and judicial function of the papacy regarding the governance of the sacraments for new converts in the New World. Over 220 years, papal authority granted special abilities and adjudicated in specific situations with ever-increasing attention. Benedict XIV confirmed the legislation of the Roman Congregations, incorporating it into his own measures.
