What is going on at the Vatican ?

[Bill]

Is Pope Francis a wolf in sheep's clothing and is the Catholic Church going to split because of it.

I know many Conservative Catholics who are not happy with what's going on in the Vatican right now. This particular Pope has caused a lot of issues.

To me personally I feel he needs to be held accountable for what he caused in China . In a country that has sworn to kill all Christians the pope asked the members of the church the clergy and Associated churches to reveal who they were to the Chinese. They were slaughtered.

Roughly 36,000 Catholics were killed and I'm not even sure how many Protestants were killed that decide to join that. This happened a few years ago and has not hit the mainstream media either.

Another moment of question has to do with a mass that was done with a group that wanted to join the Catholic Church. They worshipped Pagan goddess and the church officials allowed to Pagan goddess image to be displayed at the service.

Obviously there are not many Catholics it even know about that.

Then there's all The Replacements that are going on at the Vatican itself the pope has replaced conservative thinking priests Bishops Cardinals that held certain positions in the church they've all been replaced with people that are pro- homosexual and other very liberal areas of thought.

Does it surprise anyone after all that that they are now have a open stance on the Union of two men or two women as was announced this morning at the Vatican..

I am concerned about our brothers and sisters who are Catholic and the times ahead for all of us .

Lifting all up in Jesus, is the only salvation

Don't be alarm Bill, just let your eyes continually to be open. The Roman Catholic Chruch has never change, but now revealing more into this present day. And the true nature of herself and her "OffSprings" is also being revealed. For she will become more bolder. for her offSprings has already done so, and the alliances have already been put into place and documented before the whole world with the ratification of a ecclesiastical body. And the world cheered. And i could not believe what I saw and heard from the "Body of Believers in Christ Jesus" [ the church]. Only ones I saw rejecting this resolution was those of "The Reformed Faith"! and openly refuse to enter into such agreement of mutual Faith. That would eventual Give The RCC by the Reigns of "The POPE' all ecclesiastical power of ALL Religions. For it has also been done before by making a Law to worship and all business to be shut down on a "Sunday"! If they had the power to do that! They also will have the POWER to bring All Religion under their umbrella as well, They do have "Military Power"! And they do claim this Power of recognition of by doing so and have been document so been done by no resistance in respectability" Per "vicar of Christ"!

And I do Have a Feeling, That power will strenghten it voice on "Christmas eve entering in into Christmas Day" with shouts through out the World."

Let us see if it is true, spreading the words of love.

Dear Brother Bill,
Do you have any backup for this? Meaning, there has to be some outlets, Christian or otherwise that would support what you are saying here. If you do, it would be appreciated if you could provide them.
However, to me it would not be surprising. I just added a News Article on the Pope and Civil Unions.

Anyway, thanks in advance.
With the Love of Christ Jesus.

Yes, I heard he blessed civil unions of same sex people that they are God's children also. Technically, they are His children, but His wayword children, that are following something other than what the Father wishes.

It is really a shame , as there are so many Christians with in the Catholic church . .

We can not souly blame the Catholics for errors though , as Protestant churches also stray from God's truth .

These things are to be expected in these days we live in .

As the Lord showed me once long ago , there are many of His Children in all churches who love Him

As for all the replacements , it was stated in various conservative Catholic papers including Ave Maria press .

Oddly enough , even the Official Vatican press editor was replaced by Vatican officials with a Liberal focused person

What is going on at the Vatican? Final stages of the apostasy from the faith is what is happening, which precedes the revelation of the man of sin. This apostasy started at the first Catholic Church under Constantine and has been going on for the past 1000+ years. The Protestant Reformation is only part of the apostasy used to create schisms and confusion.

Neither the Catholics nor the Protestants were abiding in the truth to begin with, now by their actions in compromising the law of God they have only made manifest this fact.

The apostles have already preached the full Gospel to the early church who had no problem understanding any of the Gospel tenets, so under what inspiration did Constantine see the need to hold the Council of Nicaea as though the Gospel has not been preached? The Council of Nicaea was but the work of the devil to establish a false church, and he made the Catholic religious authority lord it over all believers. How many Christians were murdered under the Roman Catholic regime and who knowing this fact dares to say that the RCC is established by God? Can a religious authority established by God murder fellow Christians over theological debates and even go on to conduct the Crusade and make the Gospel a laughingstock among the heathen because of their Crusade?

And the Protestant Reformation, how is that the work of God when a group of men was honoured rather than Christ? The apostles said there are to be no schisms among the church, so by making such a great noise trying to establish a new movement how are they obeying the Gospel? When did the apostles start a religious movement of any sort to oppose the corrupted Judaism regime in their days?

We are simply to separate ourselves from false religious systems and abide in the truth, yet these Protestant founders saw the need to establish their own kingdom by religious reformation, how far then have they fallen away from the truth by this act alone, and yet they think they are upholding the truth, how deceived they are! They are but a tool in the devil’s hand to discredit the Christian religion through dividing it further. And look what they have accomplished! Out of Protestantism spawn a whole division of sects of Christianity and people outside the religion don’t even know which sect is the one with the right doctrines!

No that is not correct at all .

Jesus stated to Peter he was given the keys of the kingdom ,.

And the church that developed from those early days , we , being the Christians are the legacy . Now there have been plenty of breaks over the years , but as any large family , not everyone agrees with eachother on little and some big things as well .

But the bottom line still holds , Jesus died for our sins , and through His death and Resurrection He has redeemed the world .

As for Catholics and Protestants , we are still the same family . And it wont matter how anyone wants to paint it . We will stand before God and will have to explain ourselves why we could not follow the scripture .

Love your nieghbor as yourself .

Jesus did not say l" love only your brothers and sisters of your church .

If you can not love your nieghbor as yourself , then you have no business claiming to be Christian

I am wrong about what? Jesus said a tree is known by its fruits, the fruits of Catholicism is murder and schism (the Crusade and murder of Christians under the Roman Catholic church is evidence of those bad fruits), the fruit of Protestant Reformation is also schism (splitting of the church into Baptists, Lutheran, Anglican etc are the evidence of schism) , none of this is from God according to the Gospel. Both of them bore bad fruits and show themselves to be bad trees, do you dare say they are from God?

It is surprising to me that you fail to recognise that the same thing that happened to the religion of Moses is happening to Christianity. Judaism started with Moses, a true prophet of God who spoke the truth of God's salvation. Yet over the generations, the Jews turned Judaism into a religious movement, even having religious sects like the Pharisees and Sadduccees. Jesus said none of them had the truth. How come you don't see that Christianity with all its sects is also becoming like Judaism, a corrupted religious establishment ruled by wolves in sheep's clothing?

You say all Christians are a family, perhaps you believe most of us will be saved because we call ourselves Christians, but that is not reality. Jesus said very clearly the following "When the Son of Man returns, will He find faith on the earth?" Does that sound optimistic to you? Does that sound like the majority of Christians will be saved? Don't be wilfully delusional.

Further, how does exposing the true nature of Catholicism and Protestant Reformation count as not loving your neighbor? People need to be warned of the deception going on and not given some sugar coated message that sends them to damnation. Be careful how you judge, is it according to truth or according to your own biased support of some religious affiliations?

Yes let us look at the fruit of both the Catholics and the Protestants of the millions of Miracles that have gone and taken place through both . Let us look at all the great works that have taken place in both as well. Hospitals nursing homes Christian Appalachian project in America shelters for Abused women shelters for children there is a list a mile long.

I'm not denying the political ambitions of a few bad apples that caused havoc in both houses. Those people who lived in that time when murder and all forms of debauchery was the way that things were they will be dealt with by God .

It's kind of like the United States and its dealings over the years as great a country as the United States is there has been some Shenanigans going on when it comes to things like Vietnam or the Korean war effort in all of those type of things . But we cannot hold accountable the people of today for those issues of the past and we cannot hold accountable to Country the United States in the present day for those things that happened in the past

As it is with the Catholics and the Protestants we have grown up .

Ya there are still quirks on both sides .and yes there is some crazy behavior going on , some churches are trying to neuter God , some say the Bible is outdated , and whatever the Vatican is up to . But those actions are not what the rest of us are .

We are the church , all who Love God , are the church . We are the remnant

 

[Enxu]

A good tree can’t produce bad fruit; neither can a bad tree produce good fruit. This is what Jesus said. So if Roman Catholicism and Protestant Reformation had produced bad fruits at any point in time, they were never good trees to begin with.

Miracles have nothing to do with good fruit, neither is the ability to perform miracles a guarantee that someone or something is a good tree.

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord! ’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of My Father in heaven. On that day many will say to Me, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’twe prophesy in Your name, drive out demons in Your name, and do many miracles in Your name? ’ Then I will announce to them, ‘I neverknew you! Depart from Me, you lawbreakers!’

Jesus specifically mentioned this to wake people up from the delusion that just because they have done miracles in His name does not mean they were truly His.

I'm not denying the political ambitions of a few bad apples that caused havoc in both houses. Those people who lived in that time when murder and all forms of debauchery was the way that things were they will be dealt with by God.

If the people who started Roman Catholicism and Protestant Reformation were wolves in sheep's clothing (which I believe they were since they tried to turn the simple Gospel message preached by the apostles in full and understood in full by the uneducated early church into some advanced theology systems that only the learned can understand), then there is nothing credible about anything inside these two Christian sects or the sects that come along with it. We need to come out of this religious trap just like how the early Christians came out of the corrupted Judaism regime.

It's kind of like the United States and its dealings over the years as great a country as the United States is there has been some Shenanigans going on when it comes to things like Vietnam or the Korean war effort in all of those type of things . But we cannot hold accountable the people of today for those issues of the past and we cannot hold accountable to Country the United States in the present day for those things that happened in the past

Then you have misunderstood the point of my message. My point is to underscore that none of the religious affiliations many Christians put their confidence in is what they think it is, they need to know the origins of modern day Christianity so they escape the delusion and deception of a false religion. Roman Catholicism was set up by a sun god worshipper called Constantine under the inspiration of the devil to set up a false religion which gives absolute power to the religious authority who was loyal to him. This religious authority approved by Constantine lorded it over the rest of the Body and even murdered any who opposed their regime. Protestant Reformation (even with its mixture of truth and error) was an extension of the schism created by Roman Catholicism and further split the church into a confusing blob of religious sects. None of this is the work of God.

People need to know that the Gospel message has been tampered with over two thousand years ago already by a false religious system in the time of the Roman empire.

As it is with the Catholics and the Protestants we have grown up .

Ya there are still quirks on both sides .and yes there is some crazy behavior going on , some churches are trying to neuter God , some say the Bible is outdated , and whatever the Vatican is up to . But those actions are not what the rest of us are .

We are the church , all who Love God , are the church . We are the remnant

Don't forget that the Scriptures always mentioned that the true people of God were a minority. You and I are either a sheep or a goat, and this has nothing to do with whether we are Catholics or Protestants. Search the Scriptures to understand what is the distinguishing marks of a sheep and a goat, you will be surprised.

 

[Enxu]

The Roman Catholic Church is in fact prophesied in the book of Revelation, it is the great mystery Babylon, which is the mother of prostitutes (the other false Protestant churches that came out of it). Read for yourself what was prophesied about it:

Revelation 17:1 .....'I will show unto thee the judgment of the great ***** that sitteth upon many waters.'
Revelation 17:15 .....'he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the ***** sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.'

Is Roman Catholicism widespread among the peoples, multitudes, nations and tongues? Yes!

Revelation 17:2 .....'the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.'

Just how involved is Roman Catholicism with the dealings and politics of the world? More than you know!

Revelation 17:4 .....'And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.'

The RC priesthood has its main colors as purple and scarlet!

Revelation 17:5 .....'And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.'
Revelation 17:6 .....'And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. (Christians murdered by the Roman Catholic regime)'

All the modern day Protestant Churches had its origin from the Roman Catholic Church, its mother! And I don't need to mention how the RCC is drunk with the blood of those Christians it murdered do I?

Revelation 17:18 .....'And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.'

The Vatican holds a lot of political, religious and economical influence on the world, it is not an exaggeration to say it literally reigns over the rulers of the earth!

 

[PloughBoy]

I thank God, I will never consider myself a Christian and refused to ever be called one of those!

My Father in Heaven, called me out one day. "Where did you get that name from"! And "Who called YOU a Christian"! I heard His voice and it went deep. And I answered Him, And He said to me. And He said to me. And HE Said to me. "And what do I call you". And I said: "you told me that I was your "child" your son. Now who are you going to believe, them or Me?

Hey, that is a No Brainer! "The Bible says: all men are liars and the Word of God is True"!

I did not have to Mediate on that one. And still don't I am more than a name some pagan in "Antioch" drum up! That has maybe over 100 definitions depends on the "Definitioner" definition.

The Devil is always the Author of Confusion. And by him coining a word that will add more confusion down the Road is not out of his character. For He does like to play the role of a "creator" but always falls short!
For He does like the role "christLike". Fits him perfect! "Appearing as a Angel of Light"

Yes I do know there is only "one" true church" and it is not made by the hands of a man and the thoughts of his mind. And you cannot see it with the naked eye. And all others are counterfeits. And some of God's children have their names on those rolls. And they think they belong to that system too! And they think those two are the same. And you cannot convince them other wise. No matter how hard you may try. It is like stripping them of their "idol" if you strip them of Their "institution" they become lost. God has to strip them from it, like He always have to draw them closer to Himself!
Mankind will worship anything that has been created and bow down to it. And not even know it. Mankind will worship their own toe nails! And bow down to them.

Dear Brother PloughBoy,
Nothing wrong in the name, and who it is supposed to represent. For there is no connotation given in Christ that won't be seen as being negative if seen through the imperfections of those who profess to be such and are not.

1Pe 4:16 NKJV - Yet if [anyone suffers] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.

So, brother I'm not ashamed to be called Christian, nor Brother in Christ Jesus, because we know that many things that have been done in the name of Christ Jesus, and as Christians are anathema to God's Word! So, would I say that I'm no longer a follower of Jesus, for the wrongs that have been done in His name? Of course not! So call me Christian, or curse me, and I will still glorify God for all He has done for me, and pray that my actions are reflective of our most Glorious Savior Jesus!

With the Love of Christ Jesus.

I have no problem with the name Christian. But My Father who are in Heaven and His Son Jesus and the Holy Spirit" drawn me into conversation in 1986 while I was walking down a country road. I was minding my own business. He interrupted me! I did not approached HIM in conversation. And when the conversation was over. Then I realized I had been n conversation with My father and did not realize It until the conversation was over. It was just something He shared with me. A father just talking to his son walking down a country road. Nothing more nothing less, it was no teaching class or bible doctrine or write a book. That's it, nothing more! And after that there has been other days, not many but I understand them. Just something to share. I told a friend about what happen, he thought I had imagine it. Until it happen to him. LOL. He was crying , trying to tell me what had happen and how it was, I just smile.

Our God, is something else. People just do not know, And when that veil split in that Temple! The Bible haven't Never lied! His blood is more powerful than grape juice! And wine. That door is OPEN!

You made me think again. Have you ever notice when you say you are a Christian in front of people that word breeze by them in subjection. But when you call yourself or declare yourself before them as a "child of God" in singular form, people pause. It is like, they have been stun by something.

Have you ever notice that? That just came to my attention.

I believe it is more to us, that is also reveal n "Holy Scripture" that we realize. And the command to separate has more value that many of us care to believe and has far more greater effect upon us in our sanctification declarations. Just a opinion.

Remove yourself from the sin and inequity of this religion. It serves no Godly purpose and and only serves man and his evil desires. Strip yourself bare mentally and spiritually. If it is not written in the Gospels, then it is not the truth. You can judge a tree by its fruit, organised religion is full of bad fruit. Leave while you still can , otherwise you will be held accountable for your allegiance to these detestable organisations with Satan at its helm. The choice is yours. And your salvation is not assured whilst you imbibe with these people.

You made me think again. Have you ever notice when you say you are a Christian in front of people that word breeze by them in subjection. But when you call yourself or declare yourself before them as a "child of God" in singular form, people pause. It is like, they have been stun by something.

Have you ever notice that? That just came to my attention.

I believe it is more to us, that is also reveal n "Holy Scripture" that we realize. And the command to separate has more value that many of us care to believe and has far more greater effect upon us in our sanctification declarations. Just a opinion.

Dear Brother,
I agree with you that most definitely there is a difference in how one identifies oneself! However, to be honest I rarely if ever find myself in a situation that I start out with "Christian" as an identifier, unless its to differentiate myself as it pertains to religions or with the filling out of paperwork. Otherwise, I use something similar to what you used "child of God", "A Child of the Most High", which of course makes them as you say "pause".

I also find that I use Christian as an identifier more in writings, then in speech. Probably because, the t-shirts I wear, or even the masks I wear have Scripture verses, Crosses, or something that even a non-believer would associate with Christianity. I'm of the belief, that if I'm going to advertise for someone, i.e. company brand, I'd rather do it for the Lord. Doing so, has allowed me to have some interesting conversations over the years. People will stop me and ask where I purchased it, and this open it up to a deeper conversation of Scripture, my Lord, and where they might stand. To give you an example. One of my favorite t-shirts has a coffee cup and the word Coffee with the words for each letter as follows:

Christ
Offers
Forgiveness
For
Everyone
Everywhere

The fact that I also love a good cup of coffee in the morning, is just a plus.

Taking every opportunity to be a witness to a ever darkening world, is what I seek to do in my walk.

With the Love of Christ Jesus.

P.S. One thing I do notice about Catholics. Most don't use "Christian" to identify themselves. They'll say "I'm Catholic" instead. Sometimes I think they don't want to be confused with some denomination that isn't Catholic.
