I believe coming events will see Pope Francis the first, as a rock for the Catholic faith to rally around, just as Malachy predicted. He is a better fit in retrospect than my pick, and in a good way.
I see perhaps a bit of subliminal motive behind the selection of Francis the first for his new name though. lol
Tom Horm likes him: Pope Francis history's 'final' pontiff?
I'm struck by the alpha/omega aspect of the prophecy in the attribute (rock) assigned to the last pontiff matching a similar trait Jesus saw in Simon Peter.
Astounding actually, now that we see it fulfilled.
Tom Horn is selling his book. Don’t buy it!
