Don't let the devil light 'fire' of war in your heart, pope

VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- People cannot call themselves Christians if they sow the seeds of war, Pope Francis said.

Finding fault and condemning others is "the temptation of the devil for making war," the pope said in his homily during morning Mass in the Domus Sanctae Marthae Jan. 9, the same day he gave his annual address to the diplomats accredited to the Vatican.

If people are "sowers of war" in their families, communities and workplace, then they cannot be Christians, he said, according to Vatican News.

Isn’t communism the doctrine of hate and envy? Seems a bit ironic.

Pope homo should keep his mouth shut and his cheeks closed. He is the sower of sins and bullshit.

Frankie, do you need instructions on how to operate a mirror?

“I (Homo McCarrick) guess the Lord isn’t done with me yet,” he told the pope.

“Or the devil doesn’t have your accommodations ready!” Francis shot back with a laugh.

McCarrick loves to tell that story, because he loves to tell good stories and because he has a sense of humor as keen as the pope’s. But the exchange also says a lot about the improbable renaissance that McCarrick is enjoying as he prepares to celebrate his 84th birthday in July.

Dear Pope Francis,

Arrogance and hubris are incompatible with the message of Christ.

The guy who works 24/7/365 to help advance the victory of jihad is basically telling Christians to surrender. Finally - the first Muslim pope.

Pope Francis by his continuing social engineering pontificating and attempts to equalize the mono theistic claims that Islam honors the same Judeo Christian deity. Is only encouraging the continuing attacks and murders of African and Asian Catholics as well as attacks elsewhere and destruction of churches by Islamic followers by such comments and silence when these occur.

This Pope by decrying the sale and use of arms which Christian’s could use to defend themselves or warn the faithful not to proselytize or be “fundamental” to discourage conversions. are used by Islamists because they appear to support Islam’s mono theistic claims which is the way Islamists interpret the Pope’s remarks.

Islam seemingly supported by Francis’s refusal to condemn or refute when those theological Islamic practices and claims authorizing murder, deceit and deceptions are used. While committing these atrocities becomes the unintended result..

The very least Francis could be doing is raising theological questions on the assertions made in the Islamic codex (which is their code of observance and behavior) known as Sharia, Beginning with this question
http://www.theusmat.com/islamandfreewill.htm
Plays with suppressors of the faith

Francis continuing destructive confusing pontificating on temporal worldly social behavior,which has nothing to do with and avoids articles of faith and morals rebukes or restrains contemplative religious orders to favor such behavior .

By refusing to question and expound on the profound differences with the claims made by Islam and its followers Reaching out to and defend what Judeo/Christian beliefs are.Or challenge claims that Islamist make they are following God’s command using deceit and deception when ruthlessly murdering and torturing non believers and destroy their edifice .

Simply because of its assertion of being monotheistic. Then winds up making a point of honoring it and placing it on an equal level because of that claim.

Is he leading to misguided conversions which is the result of my so called Pope playing games with this so called mono theistic cult ? Is he creating a serious fracture within Christianity and The Roman Rite ?

It’s getting to the point with this guy where protesters weary of the directives he is making Might just come up with an effigy depicting an image of him tied to a stake and busy worshipers collecting wood piling it up at the stakes base.

Judge not, that you may not be judged.

For with what judgment you judge, you shall be judged: and with what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again.

And why seest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye; and seest not the beam that is in thy own eye?

Or how sayest thou to thy brother: Let me cast the mote out of thy eye; and behold a beam is in thy own eye?

Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thy own eye, and then shalt thou see to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Give not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turning upon you, they tear you.

Matthew 7:1-6

The poope is directing that at Trump, not at iran. He is the man who facilitated bammy’s iran nuclear deal. He hates Trump and loves those who hate him.
