What is Jansenism?
Jansenism is based on the belief that human beings are born sinful and never become good without the help of divine. The original sin, the corruption of all human beings, predestination and the necessity of divine grace are the cornerstones of Jansenism. The Roman Catholic Reform movement, the branch was created on the basis of the writings of Cornelius Otto Jansen, who was a Dutch theologian who lived in 1510-1576. Jansen opposed his current Jesuit theologians in a number of questions. He focused on the work of St. Augustine of Hippo and founded his writings on the principles he perceived in it. His work "Augstinus" was not published until 1640. Saint-cyran promoted Jansenism before "Augstinus" and was an advisor to Cistercian Convent port-Royal-Des-Champs, also known as Port Royal, in France. TZE became friends with Antoin Arnauld, brother Abbess, who became the leader of the movement after Saint-Cyran's death in 1643.
After Arnauld's death in 1694, Pasquier Quesnel was considered fromand the leader of the movement. Quesnel wrote a devoted guide, which was released in 1692, which originally appreciated several Catholic bishops, but later condemned Pope Clement XI. This meant one of the last major battles for the viability of Jansenism in the Catholic Church.
Themovement of Jansenism in the Roman Catholic Church lasted from the 16th century to the 18th century. However, most of the movements occurred after Cornelius Otto Jansen's death. Jansenism was convicted as a planet series of regulations and papal bulls, which are charts issued by the Pope. The father of the movement was not visible or checking the influence of his writings, so he has never been Condmon as heretics. In addition, Jansen's writings included a statement in which he was subjected to the Catholic Church.
On the basis of Cornelius Otto Jansen, his followers tried to expose an incredible level of piety. In addition, the Janansenists spent time in intense prayer and confession beforeby accepting the Holy Communion. This was in direct opposition to the faith of St. PIA X that acceptance should be accepted often and as soon as possible in life. He believed that children should receive communities as soon as they were old enough to distinguish between the host and the common bread. In Jansenism, as in Calvinism, only a few selected of all human beings are destined to save.
Kenvent in Port Royal, which is in the southwestern Paris, took a lot of Jansenistic doctrine. Under the pressure of the Jesuits, however, King Louis XIV demolished the convent in 1710 after the last nuns were removed from the area. Kenvent was in operation at the beginning of 1200 years. The remains can still be seen today.
