"For your discernment."

I really think Pope Benedict XVI is trying to tell us something.

After reading this article, I hope there is a rapture before this starts? LOL!

A monarch if true could be from a line from old royalty of europe or new creation. If this is true to it's form I really believe America will be taken out of the way as a world power. Whenever it fully comes forth.

What makes sense is the next generation will automatically be fooled because they have been deceived with the Harry Potter witchcraft is harmless notions. I wear the blessed exorcism medal( ST. Benedict Medal) cross out in the open at times. People who can't stop noticing it are always new agers or enchanters with occultic symbols around their necks. That's when I witness to them.

Since wearing when at nite I sleep better than before.

Thank you for sharing. Much to think about.

I also their is a reason for the Pope to use "Benedict" Name which is not by chance. Also look how he made the Creed more specific in the singular and also literally old form incarnation to protect "1 John 4" confession. You can only confess this by the Holy Spirit as true belief in Savior and Lord of Jesus Christ came in the Flesh/Humanity.

Photobucket

I challenged an occultist( She declared herself a Christian) who could not pronouce or confess the creeds(Apostle or Nicene). She convulsed instead there are "many Gods" like an unseen force held her back.

Do you notice these Movies today with Greek and Roman(Many) Gods fantasy movies. Hhhmmm the enemy of our souls setting up to make his final grand horrible farewell like this article indicates to us. Without a doubt.

>>It is certainly possible to read too much into our Holy Father’s recent actions<<

Yes, it is.
Just like JPII, this canonization is more a popularity contest. Had either been subject to the past criteria of canonization, I doubt either would be as far as they are now.

Hildegard has been “woohoo” popular with the Charismatics for ages. This is a nod to them that their style of worship is “okay” and not going anywhere. There is panic among some Charismatic groups that I know about the change in the missal.

IMO.

And besides, I’ll say to you what I say to the “Left Behind” people, We are not to know when the world is ending. Not even the Pope. He is not God, but a man.

I've read only a very little about the coming Papal honor of Hildegard of Bingen as Doctor of trhe Church. From the little I'm reading, some of the "more traditional Catholics" are scoffing because they say Papa Benedict is pandering to the PC Left (claiming Hildegard was a feminist and an ecologist.)(Were these big issues in the 12th century?)

Meanwhile some of the the "more moderist Catholics" are likewise scoffing because they say Papa Benedict is continuing to build up reactionary traditionalism (Hildegard was very big on Liturgy, opposed to homosexuality and masturbation, and made powerful arguments against women in the priesthood.) (Were these big 12th century issues too?)

Fascinating. I too am sure B-16 has some very good reasons for throwing the spotlight on this brilliant Mater et Magistra!
