Really? They’re still doing that?

[Robert A Cook PE]

Hmmmn.

This “pope-in-name-only” grants regional indulgences for a catholic conference attendees going to Dublin IMMEDIATELY after Ireland (Dublin!) voted for abortion.

Seems we have seen indulgences “sold” for worldly events before: contributing to cathedrals, going on Crusades, giving to the bishops .....

But never a word of disgust nor condemnation for Ireland from this socialist piece of propaganda.

Sinner saved by grace not works here. (Southern Baptist)
No indulgence necessary.
Just the blood of a truly awesome God.

Catholics don’t belive the blood of Christ cleans us of all sins if we confess our sin...?

help a relative speed through purgatory.

Satanic.

In Catholic doctrine an indulgence frees you from being punished for your previously committed sins or it can be passed on to dead relatives to shorten their time in purgatory.

A concept taught NO WHERE in the NT.

[RealVirginia]

Ridiculous. And I am Catholic.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Indulgences never found in Scripture, nor a power given to anyone in the NT, nor is “pope” a NT office.

[shanover]

This Pope!

[Psalm 144]

That photo reveals a great deal, for those who have eyes to see.

[ConservativeMind]

This is a really sacrilegious practice and is of Satan.

[VanShuyten]

So... how much is it to get a certain sin committed a few decades ago indulged? Does the Pope take Visa? Is there a surcharge if you’re Methodist? How about state sales tax or EU VAT tax? Do AARP members get a senior discount? And how long does this all take? I’m not getting any younger, you know.

[DungeonMaster]

Indulgences: not in the bible.

[proust]

Can he pardon himself? 🤔

[Luircin]

If the Pope really can free everyone from Purgatory, then WHY doesn’t he just do so out of love and mercy!?

[Mom MD]

So much wrong here I don’t know where to start. Let’s go with false doctrine and blasphemy.

[ealgeone]

In light of some Roman Catholics having a strong dislike for their current pope....would their relatives benefit from this as they don’t recognize the current pope’s authority?

The way it's written:

 

Galatians 4:4-5

But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, ⁵ to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
