Don’t be amazed, but do be a victor!

Revelation 17
7 The angel said to me, “Why are you amazed? I will explain to you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, the beast with the seven heads and the ten horns.
http://www.usccb.org/bible/revelation/17

Revelation 2
7 “’”Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
To the victor I will give the right to eat from the tree of life that is in the garden of God.”’
- - - - -
11 “’”Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
The victor shall not be harmed by the second death.”’

17 “’”Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
To the victor I shall give some of the hidden manna; I shall also give a white amulet upon which
is inscribed a new name, which no one knows except the one who receives it.”’
- - - - -
24 But I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not uphold this teaching and
know nothing of the so-called deep secrets of Satan: on you I will place no further burden,
25 except that you must hold fast to what you have until I come.
26 “’”To the victor, who keeps to my ways until the end, I will give authority over the nations.
27 He will rule them with an iron rod. Like clay vessels will they be smashed,
28 just as I received authority from my Father. And to him I will give the morning star.
29 “’”Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
- - - - -
Revelation 3
4 However, you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments;
they will walk with me dressed in white, because they are worthy.
5 “’”The victor will thus be dressed in white, and I will never erase his name
from the book of life but will acknowledge his name in the presence of my
Father and of his angels.
6 “’”Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
- - - - -
20 “’”Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and
opens the door, [then] I will enter his house and dine with him, and he with me.
21 I will give the victor the right to sit with me on my throne, as I myself
first won the victory and sit with my Father on his throne.

22 “’”Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’”
- - - - -

* [2:7] Victor: referring to any Christian individual who holds fast to the faith
and does God’s will in the face of persecution. The tree of life that is in the
garden of God: this is a reference to the tree in the primeval paradise (Gn 2:9);
cf. Rev 22:2, 14, 19. The decree excluding humanity from the tree of life has
been revoked by Christ.

Of course Benedict was forced to resign in order to make way for the most destructive phony pope in history. He’s like Obama in many ways as he is riding herd on the final demise of the Roman Catholic Church that began with the sinful Vatican II.

The Vatican now espouses an entirely new religion that is based on the devil’s favorite new tenet: secular humanism and the elevation of man as individual little gods.

When I see writings like this, my eyes glaze over half way through the first paragraph. I don’t see how anybody could concentrate and absorb something so long. People writing need to learn the “4 S Formula” which stands for 1. Short, 2. Simple. 3. Sincere and 4. Smile.

I'm with you. I spent years of my life learning to write and in college had professors who would rip things apart. While I'm sure the text here has great insights, it is nearly unreadable. Oh I'll plow through it, but after a cursory read, I couldn't find the meat that synced with the headline.

peace out....

We must be careful. Satan will seek to push us too far to the right or to the left. Humility is important. The documents of VCII were inspired and protected by the Holy Spirit. But the interpretation in “the Spirit of Vatican II” was well organized in the Catholic Universities and seminaries, to go toward subjectivism and relativism so as to form a new “modern” Church.
You might take a look at the article:

It was a coup d’état. Frances is a usurper.

So the question is, are there any Christians in the college of cardinals? Are there enough to regain control of the church structure?

Yes, agreed. So, if the old pope was forced to resign, when can the new pope also be forced to resign?

Synopsis: Satan has infiltrated the Catholic Church and many of the other denominations who present themselves as compassionate and inclusive. They facilitate the importation of anti-Christian immigrants into our lands in order to undermine our Christian beliefs and teachings. This was prophesied by a number of earlier church leaders. The resignation of the most recent Pope Benedict, who was very conservative, was engineered by a Catholic Church mafia comprised of closet homosexuals and followers of Satan. Our own government, under the leadership of Hillary Clinton in the State Dept, was thought to be complicit in the downfall of Pope Benedict, in an effort to “reform” the Catholic Church so it would accept abortion, homosexuality and the acceptance as equal of non-Christian religious beliefs.

For further illumination, check out the Vatican Satanic light show on You Tube and a lot of accompanying commentary.

Too much Babylonian heresy obscuring the simple truth.

You and I are on the same page, so I know you don’t think Benedict was truly “forced” to resign. Benedict, being cut from the very same Modernist cloth as Francis, knew it was his time to decrease and Francis’ time to increase. As a result, he acted as a faithful, fellow Modernist and made way for him.

These comments that poor old “traditional” Benedict was forced to resign by the mean old heretic Francis is ridiculous already. Those Modernists are crafty little fellows. They got so many Catholics to buy into Vatican II as a Catholic (but “misinterpreted”) Council that they now believe that Benedict was a bastion of Tradition. If it wasn’t so tragic it would be funny as heck.

Satan has truly taken over the Vatican. There can be no doubt.

Indeed it does appear to do so.

https://www.gop.com/more-anti-catholic-emails-from-team-clinton/

Somehow we did not have much discussion here on FR regarding the anti-Catholic emails, but the link above seems to do a decent job of pulling together the matter.

Was Pope Benedict forced to resign? It was quite shocking when he did, so perhaps there is more truth to it than we realize. Here is an article that explains more http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-25121121 about what was happening just before his resignation. Was Hillary’s biggest State Department coup, overthrowing the Vatican?

Look at the Podesta emails, review the BBC article, we know for a fact Clinton discussed ‘fixing the Church and bringing it into the modern world.’ The Pope’s own butler betrayed the Church by leaking investigative documents. Blackmail anyone?
