"The mission of the Magisterium (the Pope and the bishops united with him) is linked to the definitive nature of the covenant established by God with his people in Christ. It is the Magisterium's task to preserve God's people from deviations and defections and to guarantee them the objective possibility of professing the true faith without error. Thus, the pastoral duty of the Magisterium is aimed at seeing to it that the people of God abide in the truth that liberates. To fulfill this service, Christ endowed the Church's shepherds with the charism of infallibility in matters of faith and morals"(CCC# 890).
