ROME – On his flight back to Rome after visiting Turkey, the Roman Catholic Pontiff known as Pope Francis told reporters that Islam should not be equated with terrorism and violence–a statement that some may disagree with considering the teachings of the religion.
“On Islamophobia, it is true that when one sees these terrorist acts, not only in this region, but also in Africa, there is this reaction [of], ‘If this is Islam, I am going to get angry,'” he said. “And so many Islamic people are offended.” “Many, many [Muslims] say, ‘No, we are not this. The Koran is a book of peace. It is a prophetic book of peace. That (terrorism) is not Islam,” Francis continued...

Yes it is...Mainstream churches are turning to Catholicism...The majority of 3rd world Protestant Christians are Pentecostals and somewhat behind the scenes the Catholic religion is successfully courting those groups...

The large denominational mega churches are buddying up with the Catholic religion as we can see with Warren...

It's all coming together...Clearly the muzlims fit in there...We are dealing with the false Prophet (and many little false prophets)...When the anti-Christ shows up in the near future I'm sure he will be a combination Christian/Muzlim (Chrizlam) which will unite the masses for the Mass...The deceivers leading the blind...

It is more important than ever that we do what we can to keep people away from the Synagogue of Satan, the Catholic religion...

2Th 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2Th 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

This is the God of the Catholics and muzlims...Their pope is telling us that the Muzzies are good...And they all worship the same God...

2Th 2:5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

Joh 16:2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

These are the muzlims united with the Catholic religion...

Joh 16:3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me.
Joh 16:4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you.

Catholics need to look around and see where they are going...

What, oh what, has happened to the Catholic Church?

Hey!

It survived THESE guys; it'll survive him, too!



Pope Stephen VI (896–897), who had his predecessor Pope Formosus exhumed, tried, de-fingered, briefly reburied, and thrown in the Tiber.[1]

Pope John XII (955–964), who gave land to a mistress, murdered several people, and was killed by a man who caught him in bed with his wife.

Pope Benedict IX (1032–1044, 1045, 1047–1048), who "sold" the Papacy

Pope Boniface VIII (1294–1303), who is lampooned in Dante's Divine Comedy

Pope Urban VI (1378–1389), who complained that he did not hear enough screaming when Cardinals who had conspired against him were tortured.[2]

Pope Alexander VI (1492–1503), a Borgia, who was guilty of nepotism and whose unattended corpse swelled until it could barely fit in a coffin.[3]

Pope Leo X (1513–1521), a spendthrift member of the Medici family who once spent 1/7 of his predecessors' reserves on a single ceremony[4]

Pope Clement VII (1523–1534), also a Medici, whose power-politicking with France, Spain, and Germany got Rome sacked.

>>It’s really starting to add up huh?<<

Yes it is and in more ways than one. It's a small step from believing "the church is Christ" to following one man at the head of that "church". I watch as the Catholic Church changes in subtle ways to draw all religions together. At first they tried to eliminate all those who would not submit to their rule but God had different plans. Now they are trying to draw all religions together with the pope still at the head.

It's not even just the pope. That stage was set in Vatican 2 when it declared this.

http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P29.HTM

841 The Church's relationship with the Muslims. "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."330

It’s the frog in the pot thing.

They can’t see it.

When we on the outside see what’s happening and try to warn them, we’re labeled as *haters* and *Anti-Catholic bigots*.

Go figure.....

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Very, very possible! So who is the Anti-Christ? I would like to know (if he has been revealed)...
