** He certainly didn’t do it this past Pentecost, which would have been the most opportune date, to invoke the Holy Ghost, to preach the Gospel of Christ to all nations. Have I missed something?**
I have the feeling (really judgment) that this will come.
I used to wear one when they were required for mass when I was a kid pre V2.
I know what they are.
I think you missed the point.
You got it.
And non-Catholics have been doing it for decades at least.
At this point? Catholics have been in contact with other religions for 2000 years; and because of that the Church has converted nations and even a continent. Yet now, thanks to VC II, "Catholics are just now learning how to do this". And that continent, South America, which was once solidly Catholic, has become a frenzied feeding ground for the evangelicals that the Pope has just hosted and high-fived.
You’re correct on the fact that Catholics have been doing this for a long time.
But in the U. S. I think we are just learning.
You are also correct about the frenzy to usurp Catholicism. We need to learn how to defend ourselves when other proselytizers approach us..
So do you really think that Catholicism is in charge of something that someone is trying to usurp it?
What a joke.
Most all Christians I know just want to be left alone and that means not having the Catholic church try to claim or assert authority over all other Christian denominations.
The Catholic church can have at it with authority for those who willingly place themselves under it.
But when push comes to shove and Catholics are calling for a Catholic monarchy, they can go pound sand.

Glad to see it happening...I support the idea...The One World Gov't is coming along nicely right beside the One World Religion...The common denominator for the religion is the Queen of Heaven...
As a body that started in Acts:
Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the word. (Acts 8:4)
ctually what i see most here is that of RC promotion and proselytization, but the arrogance and intellectual bondage shown in defending her in response to such promotion is an argument against being an RC.
Amen. I read a post by someone on here a few weeks ago who said Catholicism should be the only religion in this country. That is all this country needs-—one religion. I could not believe it:
It's a match made in heaven! But why wasn't Benny Hinn invited?
They did dress modest.
It is wonderful that Pope Francis welcome brothers and sisters in the Lord. At a time when Christians ARE DYING for their faith in Jesus in Muslim controled countries, we must both PRAY and WORK for the unity of all who are Christian so that John 17 will be honored in full.
“And some of those christians are heretics and schismatics.”
Yet it is by our common baptism as in “one Lord, one faith, one baptism. “
“I have to question the wisdom of a man who would associate with Ken Copeland.”
I wouldn’t mind the meeting, as long as the other person called on Copeland to repent and convert. Prosperity theology is hard to reconcile with the scriptures.
“Yet it is by our common baptism as in “one Lord, one faith, one baptism. “”
“False prophets appeared in the past among the people, and in the same way false teachers will appear among you. They will bring in destructive, untrue doctrines, and will deny the Master who redeemed them, and so they will bring upon themselves sudden destruction. 2 Even so, many will follow their immoral ways; and because of what they do, others will speak evil of the Way of truth. 3 In their greed these false teachers will make a profit out of telling you made-up stories. For a long time now their Judge has been ready, and their Destroyer has been wide awake!...
...Their hearts are trained to be greedy. They are under God’s curse! 15 They have left the straight path and have lost their way; they have followed the path taken by Balaam son of Beor, who loved the money he would get for doing wrong 16 and was rebuked for his sin. His donkey spoke with a human voice and stopped the prophet’s insane action.
17 These people are like dried-up springs, like clouds blown along by a storm; God has reserved a place for them in the deepest darkness.” - 2 Peter 2
Mr. Copeland is a believing Christian to start, that is important.
John 17.
