I read years ago that JPII believed the anti-Christ was already alive. I got the impression he was born ca. 1960.
In 1976, Cardinal Wojtyla said in a speech in Wisconsin (of all places) that he did not think many Americans understood how close the “final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church” really was. Of course, with the anti-Christ will come an anti-Church.
Who will be deceived by the anti-Christ and the anti-Church?
That’s really simple: The type of people who are ALREADY deceived (or “deceived”) about such simple, black-and-white matters like KILLING BABIES. People like: Democrats, many Republicans, Cardinals Wuerl, Dolan, O’Malley, DiNardo, Archbishops Chaput, Cupich, Gomez, McElroy—i.e, bishops who give Communion to the killers of babies.
The anti-Christ and the anti-Church will offer these people what they are ALREADY exploiting and undermining the REAL Church to obtain: power, money, prestige, sex.
And people will read that misquote and take it to the thanksgiving table, saying, the world is gonna come to a final whatever, soon, the pope said so
Others, just sick of being prophesied to, their whole lives, that someone new, just when we’re getting over the last one, says they know something about the end that Jesus Himself didn’t know, can look it up
Here it is, though: https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/blog/john-paul-ii-said-what-now
No Cardinal w did certainly not say such a thing.
Everyone of these guys will because they were so easily decieved before:
