If that were the case, CCWoody, He'd have no one to talk to. :^)
IMHO, God hears whomever He will. His love goes out to all men. As Francis Schaeffer put it, the Bible tells us truly -- but not exhaustively. The mind and will of God are not objects of/for human understanding.
God bless Pope John Paul II for this heartfelt, beautiful, and urgently needed message. Peace amd love (forgiveness), bb.
First of all, see my Post #51, #72, & #90 to outline the Biblical basis that God does not hear [unrepentent] sinners! Therefore, your opinion doesn't matter, does it?
These verses are the basis that at the very least what the Pope will be doing by praying with these godless people for peace will have no effect whatsoever. Moreover, since my Lord has plainly said through His word that there will be no peace for the wicked, this further reinforces that this will have no effect whatsoever. If the Pope were truly wanting peace and seeking it then he would be calling sinners to repentence and sharing the gospel; not praying with them.
Therefore, we can conclude that what I said in Post #14 (now removed) is true; there will be a gathering that serves no other purpose than a collection of the godless. Note that I must refrain from the proper Biblical use of language to soothe itching ears.
If you wish, I can further explain exactly what I meant and why I said it; but I see no need to as not one single Roman Catholic on this thread has directly addressed the scriptures quoted.
