This pope is a sign we’re soon to be judged.
Well, there is the
‘Stairway to Heaven’
and then the
‘Highway to Hell’
The difference is reflective of the amount of traffic in each direction.....
This is not theology, but the wishful thinking of a reprobate mind.
If there is no Hell, there is no justice, and therefore there is no God, who is Justice.
If Hell doesn’t exist for Pope Francis in his limited reality
then Heaven doesn’t exist for Pope Francis in God’s ultimate reality.
Let’s all remember that Satan is the definition of insanity. Satan knew God, and yet he rebelled against Him and tried to become God?
Francis dips from the same cup of evil confusion.
Saying there is no Hell is the lead up to he Pope’s declaration that there is no God.
I am going to take such pleasure this Easter weekend telling her how wrong she was! Even her Pope is on my side.
>>If our Pope has trouble finding the quotes within the New Testament, I would be happy to help him locate the scriptural references.
That’s the problem. What are you, a layperson, doing with access to the Bible? You must wait for an explanation with new revelations and amplification from a council or pope to know what is said in the bible. /s
Thank God (literally) for the Reformation.
The Pope has done a tremendous disservice to the people of this world-—especially those who believe him. If there is no hell, there is no need for our Savior, Jesus Christ. God in His wisdom would not have sent His only begotten Son to die for us if there was no reason.
I doubt it will change the Catholic Church forever.
” I have always wondered if hell for the sinner is being in the presence of the glory of God. Moses’ hair was turned white from a brief encounter where God appeared as a burning bush and Moses’ had favor in the lord. Imagine what would happen to a sinner to be in the full presence of the Father.”
What being in His presence does to a human body is different than what it does to/for a soul.
Dope Francis
How very Jesuit of him! As if ANYONE’s opinion will affect whether or not there is a Hell. Francis will know soon enough. OY! Jesuits!!
I have.
I’m an Old Testament believer. Though I try to find in the New what is common to the Old. And that is The Law, to which Jesus referred constantly.
In Matthew, why would the devil, knowing that Jesus is God Himself, even bother with these trifling attempts to undermine Him by sin? There is no reason for the devil to even try.
That it’s written down seems, to my mind, a mnemonic device to pass along the story...which is fine, as how could the US even have been founded without Christianity?
Though it’s difficult, again for me, to imagine this scene of temptation to have actually been played out for the fruitlessness of it.
A blasphemous pope. Would that be an oxymoron? Apparently, Bibles are inconvenient for some.
That’s always been my belief, that Soros is involved.
BENEDICT.
“Interesting idea, but no basis in scripture. Christ talked about demons wandering through “arid places” but not the human soul.”
Jesus spoke of “demons” and He also spoke of “impure spirits.” They are not quite the same.
Jesus Drives Out an Impure Spirit
Mark 1:21-27
23 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an impure spirit cried out, 24 “What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!” 25 “Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!” 26 The impure spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek. 27 The people were all so amazed that they asked each other, “What is this? A new teaching—and with authority! He even gives orders to impure spirits and they obey him.”
While I am not a priest in the earthly designation, the Good Lord works through me to perform many things, in spite of me. I just listen to the words coming out of my mouth and learn from each experience. It’s really not me doing it, but it is done through me.
I just returned from a lengthy stay at a Benedictine Monastery where I discussed my experiences at length with the Abbot. He blessed me and supported me in following my path. He gave no criticisms of my actions or experiences at all.
While I do my best to avoid doing exorcisms, I do them when a situation arises that it becomes necessary. I discussed several of my experiences in detail with the Abbot, as I have done with many priests over the years. The entire time I could feel the Love radiating from the Abbot’s heart, and he could feel the same from me. Radiating Love is necessary when a person does this work.
For some reason, I knew where each monk in the monastery is at on their individual spiritual path just by being near them as I could feel it. The human soul and the details of its contents are physical my perceptions.
I do not expect you to believe what I say as I would not believe a person who would say them to me. That is ok. Trust the Bible as the word of God and seek greater understanding of Jesus’ Teachings. As Jesus said “the things that I do and even more you too shall do in My Name.”
He’ll learn in an instant how very very wrong he is. With his position, he’ll get an especially hot spot in the lake.
