I met a lawyer once who went to the Baptist Law School in Okla. (name escapes me). He was Catholic. I remarked how odd that was. He said the priest who lead him to Our Lord told him the church desperately needs true missionaries. In that vein, I respect your Mission. God Bless.
AMEN!
So the pope is “vicar of Christ” except when he’s not?
I miss John Paul.
I have said this before and I will say it again:
1.When I found out the new Pope was a Jesuit, my heart and stomach sank. I sense they are trouble, to put it mildly. Once the crème de la crème of the Intelligentsia of the Church, they have evolved.
2.The infallibility of the Pope lies ONLY IN CHURCH DOCTRINE.
3.We, in the Catholic Church, have witnessed many disgraceful, horrible times, including when we had two Popes.
But, what the Church teaches, the tenets of the religion, are what I truly believe. And sometimes, I have to recite the Apostles’ Creed to restore myself. It is getting harder and harder with Francis.
Yet, No Man is going to destroy my faith.
