U.S. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is 'not Christian' because of his views on immigration, Pope Francis said on his way back to Rome from Mexico. The pope said, however, he did not want to advise American Catholics on whether or not to vote for Trump. In a freewheeling conversation with reporters on his flight back from a visit to Mexico, Francis was asked about Trump and some of his statements, such as vowing to build a wall between the United States and Mexico if he becomes president.

"'A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian,' Francis replied. 'This is not in the gospel.'

This pope does not even know what the Gospel of Jesus Christ is himself. Shame on him. He is a false teacher. Let him be accursed.

When he was in the US last September, he had the world's eyes and ears. He spoke at the White House with the world's media cameras rolling. He spoke before a Joint Session of Congress. He spoke before the United Nations.

Did Jorge use that opportunity to talk about Salvation though Jesus Christ?

No.

He droned on about "Climate Change", allowing illegals to invade our borders, "Social Justice", "Economic Equality", and other Marxist nonsense.

And now Francis thinks that allowing our nation to be flooded with illegal invaders is "The Gospel"?

This is the essential Gospel of Jesus Christ:

Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.

John 3:36 "He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."

John 3:17 "For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. 18 "He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

Romans 8:1 Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.

1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Mark 1:15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."

John 10:9 "I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

Please sign my name too.

As a Catholic, I’m so embarrassed with this Pope. Instead of guiding his flock, he’s confusing the living heck out of people - unless you’re a die hard lefty who loves what he spouts.

Sickening, just sickening.

Your pope picked this fight, not Trump. Tell your pope to keep his socialist views to himself.

Sounds as if you support illegal invasion...

Now that’s interesting.

God put a chasm between Adam and Eve and Eden.
He also put up a barrier between Sheol and Paradise.

What’s that about walls Frankie?

Terrific point.

I guess Jorge never read in the Bible that Nehemiah was commanded by God to rebuild the walls surrounding Jerusalem.

The work was completed in just 52 days, and the Israelites had to hold their tools in one hand, and their sword in the other to fend off their enemies who didn't want the wall re-built. Israel was being invaded by a pagan people who wanted to steal their land, rob their wealth, rape their women, and tear down their traditions.

Sound familiar there Francis?

Nehemiah 2: 17-20

17 Then I said to them, "You see the trouble we are in, how Jerusalem lies in ruins with its gates burned. Come, let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer suffer derision." 18 And I told them of the hand of my God that had been upon me for good, and also of the words that the king had spoken to me. And they said, "Let us rise up and build." So they strengthened their hands for the good work. 19 But when Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite servant and Geshem the Arab heard of it, they jeered at us and despised us and said, "What is this thing that you are doing? Are you rebelling against the king?" 20 Then I replied to them, "The God of heaven will make us prosper, and we his servants will arise and build, but you have no portion or right or claim in Jerusalem."

Nehemiah 6: 15-16

15 So the wall was finished on the twenty-fifth day of the month Elul, in fifty-two days. 16 And when all our enemies heard of it, all the nations around us were afraid and fell greatly in their own esteem; for they perceived that this work had been accomplished with the help of our God.

Also, illegal aliens get better medical care than our vets.

It's true. And illegals are reaping hundreds of Billions from ObamaCare subsidies, while benefits to veterans are being cut and slashed.

Joe Wilson called Obama a liar - and the left and media were outraged.

Look at the smarmy face of Obama, and of the anger of Biden and Pelosi knowing they were being called out.

Where is the outrage now when it is proved that Congressman Wilson was correct?

Where the ‘talking mule’ is, can chrislam be far behind. Social gospel from Francis, to bring everyone under the Vatican in cumbaya.

Thanks for telling more about your and your family's experience.

I pray for Pope Francis every day, that God will lead the Church by his goodness and protect the Church from his foolishness. I pray ardently, at the Consecration of the Mass, that God will free this Pope from all the snares of deception, and give him the gift to be able to speak the Truth, the whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth.

Papal diplomacy has never been under the "gift" of infallibility --- we all know that --- and a great deal of harm can be done by a pope who just doesn't know what he's talking about.

This is nothing new in our 2000 year history. Getting deep into the history is a good thing to do. After the initial shock, it steadies one.

Well, technically, the Pope didn't fault a person for thinking about building walls, but for thinking "only" about building walls. Even Donald Trump does not "only" think about building walls. After all, there's also casinos...

Truth is something they’re not familiar with. It burns like acid.

You would be wrong on both counts. But I’m sure you are wrong on a great number of things, besides supporting Trump.

"The walls shown in your model are as they were originally built, not what exists today."

Belated reply: I wasn't the one who showed the picture of the model. But I have seen many actual photos of Vatican City as it exists today - I have a couple of recent books about Vatican City - and the walls are very high, totally intact, well-maintained, and monitored by Vatican security personnel.

You’re the wrong that’s wrong, dear. I support Cruz. I just don’t have an insane, violent hatred for Trump that some have.

Nice try, though.
