[Order Michael Finch’s new book, A Time to Stand: HERE. Prof. Jason Hill calls it “an aesthetic and political tour de force.”]
Pope Leo XIV met Arnold Schwarzenegger at the papal summer residence, and then urged the green faithful to undergo a “true ecological conversion” and to “listen to the cry of the Earth.”
The new pope quoted his predecessor’s condemnation of climate unbelievers who have chosen to “deride the evident signs of climate change” and “ridicule those who speak of global warming”.
Then he blessed a chunk of ice.
The elevation of environmentalism to the level of doctrine, the pseudo-pagan deification of the earth and the implication that those who do not believe in the environmental movement are heretics who need to undergo a conversion “that transforms both personal and communal lifestyles” which he equated to a conversion to Christianity and the claim that failure to participate in made it impossible for anyone to call themselves “disciples of Jesus Christ” were radical positions, but the real radicalism lay in the infrastructure of leftist political organizing.
Pope Leo’s attacks on ‘climate blasphemy’ were accompanied by a meeting with “environmental activists” and urgings for “everyone in society” to put “pressure on governments to develop and implement more rigorous regulations, procedures and controls.”
If anyone thought that the scenes out of Castel Gandolfo in early October were a one-time event they were soon followed by an exact replica as the pope met with American pro-illegal alien activists, who put on a show, complete with letters from illegal aliens and a video presentation.
“The Church cannot stay silent before injustice,” Pope Leo said, and urged the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, which is already pro-illegal alien, to take an even stronger stance against immigration enforcement. “I mean, even within the conference, there are challenges. That’s one place they should be … I wish they were stronger in their own voice,” he complained.
The scenes roughly a week apart signaled that Pope Leo intends to pull the Catholic Church even further leftward than his predecessor and that he intends to operationalize its resources to pressure governments, including the United States, to adopt his radical political positions on global warming, open borders and other elements of the leftist program..
In recent weeks, Pope Leo, who started out promising to unite the church, championed illegal mass migration, defended a pro-abortion Dem, claimed that anyone opposed to open borders could not be pro-life, upheld the sacredness of environmentalism and denounced the free market in terms that sounded drawn from socialist texts rather than traditionally Christian ones.
His apostolic exhortation didn’t just call for aiding the poor, but launched a vitriolic attack, blaming poverty on “ideologies that defend the absolute autonomy of the marketplace and financial speculation” accusing supporters of free enterprise of maintaining a “dictatorship that kills”, complaining that they “they reject the right of states… to exercise any form of control.”
What “forms of control” was Pope Leo proposing? Most European nations are already socialist to varying degrees, have high taxes and offer extensive government services. A clue can be found when he suggests that the greatest problem is the “the present model of distribution, where a minority believes that it has the right to consume in a way which can never be universalized.” ‘Equality’ would then mean that all of us should live at the consumption level of Sub-Saharan Africa and the state should take as much from us as would make that possible.
This isn’t Catholicism: it’s Communism complete with a smattering of Marxist talking points.
Pope Leo sneered at those who believe that “a free market economy will automatically solve the problem of poverty” and attacked ‘trickle down economics’, claiming that “the poor are promised only a few drops that trickle down”, advocating a resolution of the “structural causes of poverty” which he described as “inequality”. The pope called for “unjust structures” to be “eradicated” and rejected a “specious view of meritocracy” by expecting people to aspire to self-improvement.
Wealth redistribution doesn’t help the poor, as the Soviet Union demonstrated, but it does punish people for their success and it’s a useful vehicle for transforming the world.
And that appears to be what Pope Leo wants. Even when it would destroy the Catholic Church.
In between his push for global warming and mass migration into the United States, Pope Leo issued a call to do everything possible to enable the Muslim conquest of Europe.
Even as Muslim boats carrying military age male migrants were penetrating European coastlines, Pope Leo warned that “those boats… cannot and must not find the coldness of indifference or the stigma of discrimination!” All were called on to “work in the service of migrants” without “stereotypes and prejudices”. Or apparently self-defense and survival.
“To migrants I say: know that you are always welcome!” he declared, despite the ravages that Islamic mass migration had already inflicted on Europe, claiming that this would sustain a “Christianity that is more open, more alive and more dynamic” when in reality it was dooming a Christianity that was already on the decline to subservience to a hostile invading religion.
This followed his endorsement of Lampedusa, an Italian island, on the front lines of the Muslim invasion of Europe, as a positive symbol, rather than the new ‘Gates of Vienna’, condemning “loud arguments, ancient fears and unjust policies” by those who oppose mass migration, and celebrating the Muslim invaders as “seeds from which a new world longs to sprout.”
These ‘seeds’ would wipe out Christianity, but to Pope Leo, as to many liberal Christian and Jewish clergy, Christianity and religion in general appears to be a means to a leftist end. When religion is just a vehicle for social justice and the sum of its teachings amount to little more than an imperative to build a more ‘just’ society through the prescriptions of Marxism, the religion and its institutions can be sacrificed on the altar of social justice so that a better world may arise.
But what is striking about Pope Leo is how his rhetoric tends to be wedded to leftist activist groups and how much it seems like a collection of NPR talking points rather than religious ones.
After coming out for open borders, global warming, Muslim mass migration, and a pro-abortion politician (while also taking the time to condemn the Trump administration for renaming Secretary of Defense to Secretary of War, Pope Leo still found the time to celebrate the media.
Meeting with a media group, Pope Leo urged citizens to “value and support” the mainstream media, condemning “unfair competition” and “clickbait”, and claiming that it serves as a “bulwark” against “post-truth”. The term, like so many others, was revealing, having come into vogue among liberals around the Brexit/Trump era and was used to justify mass censorship.
“If today we know what is happening in Gaza, Ukraine, and every other land bloodied by bombs, we largely owe it to them,” the pope claimed. If anything, we know very little about what is actually happening in Gaza and Ukraine because of the media’s propaganda.
Considering the media’s attacks on the Catholic Church, Pope Leo’s enthusiasm for the church’s enemies seems a little odd, but it’s not at all surprising for a dedicated leftist.
Pope Leo’s championing of the media is convenient because all of his positions are cliches that could just as easily have appeared on an hour of NPR minus the theology and references. To know what his position on any issue is, don’t open the bible, open the New York Times.
Conservative Catholics hoping for a more moderate post-Francis papacy have found themselves stuck with a man who may be the most radical pope to date and whose American background makes his politics all too familiar and all too trite. But the growing radicalism has been matched by Pope Leo’s weaponization of radical groups to move forward his agenda.
And that agenda is bad for America, bad for the Catholic Church and bad for Christianity.
The satanic catholic fake church… never was a church… never was a Christian Church…
It lied from the very beginning… by rewording ancient Christian documents from “Church of God” to “Universal church”…
Major deception…
Of course… the satanic catholic fake church teaches they worship the fake god allah of satanic islam…
If you’re a C’lic? Is allah your god? a fake god who has no sons for Salvation…
Denounce the satanic catholic fake church
Gee Scumsrent, I don’t think the Vatican is listening to your jagoff repetitive rants. I don’t think they give a crap about anything you have to say.
You know how I know this? It seems no one on this site gives a crap what you have to say considering the number of responses you get. After all, who wants to hook up with a third rate Johnny the Baptist and his Baptiseroos?
Here’s an idea. How about donning an animal skin go stand in a river and start yelling at everyone. Halloween will be here in a couple of weeks. I’m sure you can find a cheap imitation Bad Bunny outfit in the costume department at Macys.
OK, cue the stupid gay jokes for the one millionth time. Maybe you can take your act on the road. Joe’s Lounge is now open in Las Vegas. Johnny the Baptist and his Baptiseroos? Playing every night live to empty seats.
Intrepid… my comments aren’t directed at the satanic Vatican…
They’re truthful… to help catholics get informed…
Q: Whats the difference between satanic catholicism and satanic islam?
A: Nothing
Somehow I don’t think rank and file Catholics are paying any attention to you either.
In some ways you are like THX’s evil twin brother. No one is exactly becoming an objectivist these days. But he keeps flogging his pet issue.
You keep flogging your insane Christian theories about raptures, tribulations, pre-tribs, and your stupid boneheaded theories about me and my Lutheran church that you are convinced is a mosque.
Trust me, no one cares and no one is listening. If I didn’t know already what a loser nut bag you are I would think you are a psycho case who is off his meds. Unfortunately you think you have the right to insult anybody, from your keyboard. You are a real tough guy, huh.
You really need a hobby other than cheap insults and fake religious “dogma”. One of your biggest problems is your stupid habit of yelling “Shut Up Intrepid”, as if I would listen to a loser like you.
Wrong Intrepid…
You don’t care…
And… actually… it’s you who continually casts “cheap insults”…
And Dr Sumsrent, hawking his Keyboard Warrior Satanic Muslim Magic snake oil and promising to drive out satanic Islam, strikes again.
I suppose that calling my church a mosque is not a cheap insult or calling me gay is not cheap insult, or actually believing I chase women at my church is not a cheap insult, and on and on. You are the king of the cheap insult.
You are so stupid you can’t tell the truth from a lie.
And just to be clear no one cares and no one is listening to you and your idiotic faux christian fantasies.
you couldn’t find the essence of Christianity with two hands and a flashlight.
You are so deep into your own level of pride, sin and judgementalism it’s hard to know where to begin. You think you have the right to judge everybody.
Satanism has such a hold on you it will be your inevitable undoing. And I will laugh and laugh. You deserve a true place in where you are going because you are already there.
If I were you I would read the following a few times:
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
E.L. Bynum says: “False teachers are free to spread their poisonous doctrines today because there is a conspiracy of silence among many Bible believers. Wolves in sheep’s clothing are thus enabled to ravage the flock, thereby destroying many.
Standing face to face with these false teachers, Jesus Christ the Son of God, called them “hypocrites”, “blind guides, ” “blind, ” “whited sepulchres, ” “serpents, ” and “ye generation of vipers” (Matt. 23:23-34). Yet, we are told today that we are to fellowship with men whose doctrines are just as unscriptural as those of the Pharisees.
Some who say they are Bible believing Christians insist on working with Roman Catholics and other assorted heretics. Yet, according to many, we are not supposed to rebuke them for their compromise.
…
1) catholicism is satanic
2) islam is satanic
3) The ELCA Lutheran is satanic
All worship[ the fake god allah…
So it’s OK to name names. It Is Right To Practice Biblical Judgment. It Is Right To Expose False Teachers. And on and on.
Since you are into some crackpot fraud named Bynum, I wonder if we can say that you are satanic. You appear to be obsessed with satan and allah. Bynum is in violation of so many tenets of Christianity it’s hard to know where to begin. You are following in the steps of a false prophet
So I’ll say it. You are satanic. And beyond stupid. You hide behind the cloth of the heretic Bynum and you are forever damned. At least I know now where your insanity is rooted. No wonder you hate everyone.
How do we know you don’t worship allah.
You would have fit right in with Henry VIII who used to accuse many around him of being heretics.
You live a pointless life. You are the essence of irrelevance. So I did a little digging.
https://www.av1611.org/crock/judbynum.html.
Your last post to me is where you get your whack ideas. So who died and made you judge of us all. It is no wonder why you can’t buy an upv0te. You are the ultimate false prophet and religious snake oil salesman. It all makes sense now.
Bynum is a loser and so are you, fraud boy. No wonder you could never talk about him.
Intrepid… care to list the “so many tenets of Christianity” Bynum is “in violation of”???
You couldn’t on a good day of possessing any intelligence… aye?
Your idea of Christianity is warped, twisted and demented… by your satanic ELCA Lutheran fake church which worships the fake god allah… and your desire to “Chase female tail… so you can get laid”… at your fake church…
You’re a sick human being Intrepid… who has no idea what it is to be a Christian
Get this Intrepid…
1) catholicism is satanic
2) islam is satanic
3) The ELCA Lutheran is satanic
All worship[ the fake god allah…
https://www.bible-knowledge.com/basic-tenets-of-christian-faith
You will find the twelve basic tenents on this page
And here is what your buddy Bynum believes:
So it’s OK to name names. It Is Right To Practice Biblical Judgment. It Is Right To Expose False Teachers.
https://www.av1611.org/crock/judbynum.html.
Look loser boy, you got caught. You are busted.
But hey you keep right on showing us what you just can’t get past….the fact that you are a gullible fool and you fell for everything I told you.
Such a simpleton.
You couldn’t find the meaning being a Christian with two hands and a flashlight. I really don’t need to say much more. You are what you are.
So every time you want try to harass me I will simply repeat what your false prophet, P.T. Bynum believes and what you put into practice. You are about as much of a Christian as Mohammed was. Bitter table for one.
Oh my… so you pulled up some random list of tenets online to impress yourself… <<< hahahahaha
A list that doesn't include any of the Ten Commandments…
Do you actually believe some man made up list is more important than Go's Ten Commandments?
Such as false god worship? Worshiping the fake god allah?
your article says…
"But if any one of them ever start to get off into any serious error on any one of these basic tenets, they could then get themselves into serious trouble with the Lord, as I do not believe there is any slack with the Lord on any of these basic fundamental tenets."
It goes on to say…
"… and any church, pastor, or denomination that starts to get too far away from any of these basic tenets should immediately be called out on it by the rest of the Body so they do not fall any further into serious error."
And…
"If this church does not accept any type of proper correction or counsel the Lord may end up sending their way, then God will have no other alternative but to remove His anointing from that church …"
So therefore… calling people out and naming names is Ok!!! This is what your article says. Did you read it?
Your article says…
“We Are Saved by Grace Through Faith – Not by Works”
Did you know satanic catholicism teaches they are saved by works?
Oops… I guess the gates of Hades has prevailed against the satanic catholic fake church… aye?
But begins with saying…
“For the record, we believe that all of the main denominations of Christianity are accepted and honored by God the Father.”
What quackery!!!
It contradicts itself by saying…
“There is no room for compromise or negotiation with the Lord on any of these basic tenets.”
So then… how can these fake churches worship the fake god allah, who doesn’t have any sons for Salvation… and then say…
“Jesus Christ is the Only Way To Eternal Salvation With God the Father”
Get this Intrepid… allah is not a real god… it is a fake god.
E.L. Bynum meets P.T. Barnum = Slumsrent.
I have no idea what your last two comments mean. And I don’t care. Just a combination of your usual angry bible babble. But you did manage to mention allah at least three times. So tiring and boring.
I gave you the 12 tenets of Christianity. If you can’t accept them that’s your problem. If you don’t like the website I got them from that is also your problem.
I guess the allah insult is all you have left to assuage your tired collection of cheap insults…. You are more pathetic than I imagined.
Give it up Slumsrent. You played your little hand and you lost. And you got caught. There’s really nothing you can say that will cover up your greatest phuck up. Sucks to be you Slummy….Mr. snake oil salesman…..Mr. second rate Baptist “pastor”.
And now everyone gets see what a desperate no account pathetic fool you are.
But I did raise glass of vodka in your honor at dinner last night. And those of us gathered at the table had a good laugh. Followed by shots all around.
I’m gonna have a good time at your expense. Go scream at the sky Johnny la Baptismo. Perhaps God will finally tell you to STFU.
Naturally you couldn’t understand what came from your own random search of “tenets”…
You obviously never read them.
You couldn’t realize how they helped smack yourself in the face…
Don’t even attempt to try again…
You failed Intrepid… terribly… awfully…
Pathetic? I failed? You asked for the tenets of Christianity. So I found the 12 tenets according to https://www.bible-knowledge.com/basic-tenets-of-christian-faith. So it was hardly random.
I’m so sorry if you don’t like them. I doubt that another search will yield “better” tenets or Bynum approved tenets. There are only so many tenets. Perhaps the phraseology will be different. Does it really matter? I suppose it does to you since you will never accept anything I send you.
By the way these aren’t my “articles” Someone else wrote them, including Bynem. Why don’t you tell us the 12 tenets in your own words.
Must be tough knowing you will never be a big time pastor with flocks of thousands awaiting your sermons. You are simply a small time fool who exists in the a$$ end of the internet.
Just got back from church a while ago. From the sublime (my church) to the world of the low rent carnival barker (you and your insanity)
Look pus face, I can do this forever with you. I’m having a great time effing around with your high handed haughty stupidity. Your own arrogance and small mindedness blew your cover. Your cutting and pasting of Bynum was how I found where you got your whack ideas about Christianity. You are definitely not the brightest bulb in the tree.
But you are good for a laugh.
Wrong liar…
I didn’t ask you for a list of tenets…
I said… prove which tenets Bynum was in violation of…
So… what did you do?
Pulled up a random list of stupid tenets and act as if your the victor… <<< Hahaha
You haven't proved anything!
Then… you can't see how your random list of tenets prove your Spiritual ignorance…
I’m not trying to prove anything re: tenents, re: bynum, re: my spiritual acumen. Those seem to be your various obsessions.
And I don’t have to be the victor of anything. That’s definitely another one of your obsessions.
And your very odd habit of calling people liars seems to be one of your bad habits.
Perhaps you should go to the Bible Knowledge website and complain to them about their “random tenents”.
Religion is not a competition for me. But it definitely is for you. You should stop trying to prove to everyone how smart you are. No one cares, except maybe your mommy.
If I tried to refute all the mindless stupidity you burp up I couldn’t get anything else done. It’s funny though, you get to set all the premises, and then you get to set all of your conclusions, because in your world every one is a liar.
Is this really your job everyday? How very boring and insecure you are. Since you put yourself up as some all-knowing Jesus guru who tolerates no dissent, you are the type of jerk who gives normal Christians a bad name.
Intrepid… care to list the “so many tenets of Christianity” Bynum is “in violation of”???
You couldn’t on a good day of possessing any intelligence… aye?
Let me repeat that… “You couldn’t on a good day of possessing any intelligence.”
…
Your random list of tenets don’t prove any way how Bynum is in violation…
All your “tenets” prove is how your satanic homosexual approved ELCA Lutheran fake church is in violation. <<< Duh
You fail miserably… as always…
And who are you?
I get it Sebby webby. That’s a lot of words to absorb. 10 words is about your max
Say bye bye. I have a feeling you will get censored again. Do you ever have anything intelligent to say? You certainly seem obsessed with your homosexuality.
Is there something you would like to share with your brother Mohammidamis. Perhaps they will throw you off a roof.
“Sebastian” and “Sumsrent”, for f-k sake enough already with your incessant infantile poo flinging. Longtime commenters Intrepid and Jeff’s comments are always intelligent, germane and funny and add to the quality of this site. Yours add nothing. For years, Daniel Greenfield and everyone at FPM have provided a primary online source of authentic and critical journalism, commentary, news, and opinions that engages countless intelligent interesting commenters whose views add value to the site. Yours add nothing. Do you have any idea how much effort, skill, time and dedication it takes to produce a site like this and sustain it year after year? Inter-commenter flame wars can be fun — I love a good online bitch slap. You two are not doing this. Every time you comment you’re taking a shit on the floor of David Horowitz’s site. Out of respect for FPM if nothing else, stop it! And seek psychiatric help.
Maybe you haven’t noticed… I haven’t been “flinging poo”…
Do you like to make stuff up?
Of course… I’ve been around for years… and a monthly donor, for years too.
Thus… if you can refute what I say… do so. Otherwise… your problem lays with Intrepid, who said years ago he’d run people off this site… and has failed.
The article is about the Poop… my comments are relative.
Is the fake god allah your god? It is the satanic catholic fake church’s god.
Then ask yourself… why does catholicism cater to satanic islam?
Your turn
SumsyWumsie, You are the “poo flinger” in chief. You wallow in your own perversions. The day you actually have something intelligent to say will be the sun sets in the east. You are simply a bitter wannabe St. Johnny the Baptismo with a sh*t stained Beema Bop-a-Looma toilet seat.
Actually morons like you run themselves off this site subject to the mods, like what happened to Sebastard. His posts last two days at the most.
How is one supposed refute the insanity of a fraud/snake oil salesman. Who would take the time? You will never be anything official within the world of the church. Who would ever join fake religious creepshow voodoo “church” like yours, anyway.
You’re a liar Intrepid… an absolute liar!
The only thing I have to say about you is what YOU have told us…
1) You belong to the ELCA Lutheran church… which happens to be satanic because they teach their congregants to worship the fake god allah.
It is also a homosexual approved satanic church… letting homosexual pastors preach…
2) you’ve also stated…
That you only “goes to CHURCH to Play Bass Guitar with good musicians” on the stage to “Chase Female Tail” and “Get laid”… <<< (They're all your words… I've just pieced them together for ya…)
3) You make a mockery out out the Holy Word of God… by calling His Holy Bema Seat a "Beema Bop-a-Looma toilet seat"
Any real God fearing person would NEVER say anything of the sort.
…
As far as you trying to refute me… YOU can't! You are incapable… because you are not a student of the Holy Scriptures…
And…
You've been given over to a REPROBATE MIND…
Poor widdle Sumsy Wumsy. You make a mockery of being human. You make a mockery of intelligence.
“As far as you trying to refute me… YOU can’t! You are incapable… because you are not a student of the Holy Scriptures…”
Refutation seems very important to you. Golly gosherooni, whatever shall I do? And you still can’t get over the “Beema Bop-a-Looma toilet seat” So tell us, when does the pretrib, the tribulation and the rapture, of which you are convinced you have already experienced, actually take place.
Why would I try to refute your lies and your abject self-indulgent index card stupidity? Who as the time? I don’t see anyone trying to refute your gibberish.
We have no proof that you are actually a student of anything let alone what you call Holy Scripture. As our resident poo-flinger and chief snake-oil religious elixer salesman, you simply appear to be a bitter excuse for a barely sentient person pretending to be Johnny the Baptismoron without the sheepskins.
You know sh*t for brains, I should commit my responses to you to index cards like you do, so I can more quickly respond to your repetitive rants.
Have a seat on your Beema Bop-a-Looma toilet seat in your Mommy’s basement
Regardless of what you think…
1) islam is satanic
2) catholicism is satanic
3) The ELCA Lutheran is satanic
4) Intrepid has been given over to a Reprobate Mind
Amen Brother. Thank you.
For all its faults i would take the Roman Catholic Church over Islam and Progressive Protestantism (think the leadership of the Anglican Church, and the Episcopal, Methodist, and Presbyterian Churches in America) any day.
Another phony Pope just like with the last one a False Prophet a total Fraud which tells us just how much Evil happens at the Vatican the False Religion of the Eco-Freaks and the Commie idea redistribution of the Wealth just like Karl Marx wanted
Leo the Lionhearted…
Meet leo the pussy-whipped. ~
“pseudo-pagan deification”
Characteristic of the Left.
The Catholic Church isn’t immune from Leftist’s, socialist’s and homosexuals that have infiltrated the one True Church.
For any Catholic interested, there is a video by Sam Shamoun on YouTube, called “Doubting the Catholic Faith Because of What Popes Do”
Do not deny your Catholic faith because of what popes do.
Good point… forget what Poop’s do…
Instead… consider if the fake god allah of satanic islam is the god of the satanic catholic fake church… CCC#841
A fake god who has no sons for Salvation…
The denounce the satanic catholic fake church as being satanic…
“…the one True Church.”
The one true church is the body of Christ. Its “head” is not Rome. The head is seated at the right hand of the Father.
Ephesians 1:22-23 “…hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body…”
A person becomes a member of His body when they are baptized into it by the Spirit; not by a “priest” with water.
1 Corinthians 12:13 “For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free…”
“…your Catholic faith…”
Saving faith and the walk of faith is in the Lord Jesus Christ and His word (the Bible).
Ephesians 1:12-13,15 “That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
“In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,”
“…your faith in the Lord Jesus…
The Catholic Church is the only church with direct lineage to Jesus Christ through St. Peter.
Matthew 16:18, “Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by My Father in heaven. 18And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”…
There is one church, one faith and one God. Catholic means universal. Jesus preached unity. He did not preach for 44K man made Protestant denominations with different dogma and teachings. That isn’t unity, but division.The Catholic Church Gave Us the Bible
The first official list of books contained is what is now the Bible was done at the Council of Hippo in 393, and then again in Carthage in 397 and 419. However, the Council of Trent in 1556 was the first time the Church infallibly defined these books as ‘inspired’ because it was questioned by Reformers.
Sola Scriptura is not supported in the Bible.
Protestant churches include the Lutheran Church founded by Martin Luther in 1517, the Anglican Church established by King Henry VIII in 1534, the Presbyterian Church founded by John Knox in 1560, and the Methodist Church created by John and Charles Wesley in 1784. Other notable denominations are the Baptist Church founded by John Smyth and Thomas Helwys in 1606, and the Pentecostal Church, which emerged in the early 20th century with various founders. All men; not with lineage to Christ.
Tell us then…
Why has the gates of Hades prevailed against the satanic catholic fake church, which was built upon lies?
Because it’s reprobate
Massive deception!!!
Peter does not mean “rock”… it means “pebble” and/or stone…
Christ Jesus is the ONLY rock!!!
Are you going to tell us that only Peter is/was able to have the Keys? <<< Nope!!!
All the Apostles were present… and Christ Jesus was talking to all of them.
In fact… all Christians have the Keys to the Kingdom… all Christians are able to bind and loose…
You spew lies…
The brainwashing of a Catholic…
catholics falsely believe…
1) They are the ONLY church anywhere
2) No one else is a Christian
3) Their “church” including organization & buildings is the ONLY Body of Christ in the world
4) Their “church” is inseparable from the people who make up the “Body”
5) The “church” is the “Body” and the “Body” is the “church”
6) Nobody is Saved until they are judged for their good works
7) They are the only church because Peter was their first Poop
8) That all Gods authority was handed to them because of Peter
9) They are the authority over Scripture and they are the only ones who can interpret Scripture
10) That Christ Jesus gave all God’s authority to only the catholic church
11) That they are now the authority over Christ Jesus the Word of God
12) That Holy Scripture has mistakes
13) Because of those mistakes they are the only qualified ones to correct those mistakes
14) No one can correct their doctrinal misinterpretations because they are above it all
15) They believe they know it all
16) That everyone else who claims to be a Christian can’t tell them they’re wrong, because they’re the ones with the authority and only them.
FOLKS… as we can see here… catholics believe they are above everything Christian in the world… and that they are the only authority, even above Scriptures.
Therefore… engaging in a discussion with a catholic to correct their errors is an insult to them, personally and their church… and visa versa… because they believe it is one in the same.
And… they are the special privileged authority beyond The Word of God, the Holy Scriptures.
Being so pompous as they are… we see how great they think they are… how magnificent… how above Christ Jesus they think they are…
I’m sure they ask themselves… “Will God even be able to stand in our catholic presence?”
You are mistaken. The Eastern Orthodox Church also can trace its roots to St. Peter. Until the bishop of Rome tried to force himself on the other bishops, they both were part of the same Universal Church.
The Protestant Reformation happened when the true Christians in the Roman church could no longer tolerate the heresies coming out of Rome.
Wrong. The Catholic Church was here for 1,500 years before Martin Luther left to form his own church. So, you’re saying God was wrong for 1,500 years until Martin Luther came around to correct God’s mistake?
Protestants aren’t true Christians. They are heretics. I gave you a list of man made Protestant denominations. Today, there are over 44K Protestant denomination teaching different theology. Jesus preached unity. Now, tell me is 44K different denominations unity? And two more are added everyday. Or, is one church, one faith, one God unity? The word Catholic means universal. Protestant comes form the word protest.
Corruption in the Catholic Church, or any church, is due to the fallibility of man; not God.
The Catholic Church traces its origins directly to Jesus Christ, who founded the Church in 33 AD when He appointed Saint Peter as the first Pope, thereby establishing the papal office that continues to this day. As the Church grew, it was responsible for compiling the Bible in its entirety, a process that culminated in 382 AD under Pope Damasus I. While Protestantism, a significant branch of Christianity, did not emerge until the 16th century, the Catholic Church remains rooted in the ancient teachings of Christ, including the doctrine of His real presence in the Eucharist.
Christ Jesus NEVER “appointed” Peter as the first Poop !!!
That is a lie !!!
Christ Jesus, Peter, Polycarp and more than likely Linus would never of had anything to do with the satanic catholic fake church…
The satanic catholic fake church laid claim to their names without their permission…
catholicism = lies
Milovan Djilas in his 1957 “The New Class: An Analysis of the Communist System” described an historical antecedent of communist’s ends-justify-the-means ruling caste’s self-serving brutality:
“To quote Dietrich von Nieheim, nominal Bishop of Verden, writing in 1411: ‘When its existence is threatened, the church is freed of moral edicts. Unity as an aim blesses all means: perfidy, treachery, tyranny, simony, prisons, and death.’ These words, too, sound as if they had been uttered by some contemporary Communist. There is much of the feudal and fanatic in the dogmatism of contemporary Communism.”
The church’s 1411 “thesis” and the communist’s 1957 “antithesis” results in the 2025 “synthesis” of “Pope” Leo’s socialist christianity: Power for power’s sake. Tax the “church” and expropriate all its property. Why would the “Pope” object: All that cash could buy a lot of spicy hummus for his precious “starving muslim refugees”.
How about a homeless encampment in St. Peter’s square? The U.N. could supply blue tents.
Pope Leo — what a huge disappointment — although one expected as much. Unspeakable what he’s done.
Daniel took it personally when the Pope spoke of those who have “deride the evident signs of climate change” and “ridicule those who speak of global warming”. You obviously do this, right Daniel? You wouldn’t claim that you don’t deride or ridicule.
Since you make a living around deriding and ridiculing others, it’s not clear you have a leg to stand on to criticize Leo.
But great analysis anyway! Kudos, Daniel!
I’m not Catholic. The Vatican has been antisemitic since forever. I wonder how that serves the popes when they die and find out that their antisemitism was telling Lord Jesus Christ “I had you Lord because you are Jewish”.
I was not raised in a religious culture.
Thank GOD I was born in USA. I am 2nd and 3rd generation refugee legal immigrant generation who fled the inquisition, another Vatican plot, to Turkey then in the early 1900’s the revolution in Turkey to USA.
the other half mostly fled the Russian pogroms and I am sure I had kin who perished in the nazzi holocaust.
The deal I made with my dad is get bar mitzva and I don’t have to go to temple anymore, or something like that.
I used to think when sitting in the synagogue, is this all there is to the Bible? Dusty rituals?
I wandered the world seeking “truth”.
Eventually one night I called out to the ethers: “GOD, Jesus, if YOU are real prove it to me, then, no matter what show me the truth. 40 years later I can securely and confidently and sanely say THEY proved to me THEY are real and they are still showing me the truth. Life is what it is, but I wish I knew about the dichotomy of YHVH and Yeshua Messiah Lord Jesus Christ when I was a child.
My point to all this is for me religion is a firewall where I have to seek an open portal to G-D. I have no firewall so it’s so easy to connect to YHVH and Yeshua. I get the advantage of using YHVH G-D and Yeshua Messiah Lord Jesus Christ.
If people find comfort and strength in their religion, GOD Bless You. I am referring to religion of peace, love and brotherhood.
Christ came to me in a dream 31 years ago with a message that took me 30 years to fully comprehend.
I illustrated the dream. It took 7 iterations of the illustration to get it as close to what the dream looked like. I would like to animate the dream.
Here is a link to view the illustration: https://substack.com/@trumanbutterfield/note/c-166332137?r=8tnxg&utm_source=notes-share-action&utm_medium=web
It’s incredible to have this knowledge from experience not just faith. This information leads to a stronger connection,
Don’t blame YHVH GOD OF THE BIBLE and LORD JESUS CHRIST YESHUA MESSIAH for the firewalls human religion puts up to fool people that one must go through religion to connect to G-D and Jesus Christ!
In this day and age radical is easily confused with stupid.
The Catholic church has ceased to exist as a church.
Now it is just another NGO.
How long do American Catholics tolerate these Marxist Pope’s coming out of the Vatican. Is it time to break away from the Vatican? The Vatican has become the corrupt church leadership in the Temple, that our Lord admonished.
I think you mean… Islamofascist Poops…
satanic islam is referred to as Islamofascism…
We’ve seen this a few times in world history: Popes altering and manipulating church doctrine for the benefit of their own personal agendas. The Vatican has become just another govt entity with stained glass.
Leo XIV = Francis 2.0
I thank God for the sacrifice that Jesus made for the forgiveness of sins for the whole world. My High Priest now sits beside our Heavenly Father and advocates for those that have accepted his free gift of salvation. I don’t need a pope or any other man to intercede for me. Jesus is the only answer.
Probably the most important comment of all…
Thanks…
It would seem to me that is a discussion to be conducted amongst Latin-rite Catholics. Whether hyperpapalist/ultramomtanist or not.
ultramontanist, excuse my typing
In violation of one of the Ten Commandments THOU SHALL HAVE NO OTHER GOD BEFORE ME like that Block of Ice
Oh, cheez, all the religious dogma cross-babble here, let’s cut to the bottom line: The pope is just another left-wing hack, promoting destructive left-wing ideology, and like Islam, using religious trappings to cloak political agenda advocacy. And it figures a Chicago born-and-raised idealogue would be selected by an equally squishy bunch of ‘officials’ (called cardinals) to be the head honcho of “The Church”. An organization that has promoted an anti-strength doctrine of romanticizing the poor, and egalitarian regimentation of humanity at the point of a sword (and later, gun) based on the vague musings of a false messiah whose presence on the earth *resulted in no improvement of the human condition in any aspect*, after he supposedly left it by ascending up into the sky. Can we expect anything else from such a pretentious organization that has so puzzlingly gathered such unwarranted influence over the centuries?
What a bullshit article, a chaotic mix of ignorance and presumptions about pope’s political views. “Most European countries are already socialist…”. Communism! yeah, you bet. Gibberish monkey talk. Is there any editor reading and actually editing these revelations?
For Leo:
John 8:44 KJV — Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Genesis 8:22 KJV — While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
James 4:4 KJV — Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
1 John 2:16 KJV — For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Matthew 23:8 – 10 KJV — But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
Revelation 3:19 KJV — As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Revelation 22:16 KJV — I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
