Scalfari: Pope Francis Told Me That Jesus Incarnate Was a 'Man ... Not at All a God'

This story was updated at 2:25 p.m EST to include a brief statement from the Vatican, which does not deny what Scalfari reported about Pope Franics, only saying it "cannot be considered as a faithful account of what was effectively said, but represent more a personal free interpretation of that which he [Scalfari] heard." (See below.)

In the latest edition of La Repubblica, Pope Francis' longtime atheist friend and interviewer, Eugenio Scalfari, claims that the Pope told him that once Jesus Christ became incarnate, he was a man, a "man of exceptional virtues" but "not at all a God."

The teaching of the Catholic Church and most Christian churches is that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was incarnated as fully man and fully God.

As the Catechism of the Catholic Church states, "The unique and altogether singular event of the Incarnation of the Son of God does not mean that Jesus Christ is part God and part man, nor does it imply that he is the result of a confused mixture of the divine and the human. He became truly man while remaining truly God. Jesus Christ is true God and true man. During the first centuries, the Church had to defend and clarify this truth of faith against the heresies that falsified it. (464)"

Jesus is God in the flesh.

If he was solely incarnate, the signs, the wonders, the miracles didn’t happen and the Bible is false.

What?

A witness lacks an infallible memory?

The Pope and Pelosi have been placed at odds.

I wonder how that came to be.

Here is another one from the article

“In a March 2018 interview with Scalfari, Pope Francis reportedly said, “There is no Hell, there is the disappearance of sinful souls”

>>the Pope told him that once Jesus Christ became incarnate, he was a man, a “man of exceptional virtues” but “not at all a God.”

O.M.G. Did the Pope just assume Jesus’ gender?!? I’m amazed Francis didn’t declare Jesus to have been non-binary-gendered or some other foolishness.

Glad that “pope” isn’t my religious leader. The guy’s a damned heretic.

1 John 2:22 Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son.
