Remember, I am NO Roman Catholic, and I am very familiar with some of the corrupt Popes. However, they were still the Lord’s annointed, and that didn’t make their ordinations any less valid. They no doubt are answering to the Lord for their actions. I know of plenty of PROTESTANT leaders and ministers who are in the same boat.
Well, if it makes you feel any better, we no longer officially take the position that the Pope is the Antichrist.
