Bergoglio and the relics of St Padre Pio and St Leopold Mandic

On February 9th, 2016, (the vigil of Ash Wednesday), Bergoglio delivered a speech to the ‘Missionaries of Mercy” – priests who would go out during this Year of Mercy.

In his speech, Bergoglio spoke of  the language of gestures – that often people can’t verbalize their sins through shame, and that the priest should give them absolution.

The following email was received from a fellow crusader (and blogger)– making a connection that I was not aware of:

“The other thing to note is that when this was said by the FP on Feb 9,

He did so in the presence of PADRE PIO’S BODY and ST LEOPOLD MANDIC’s body, the saint of the confessional.

So more MOCKERY !

Pray for Us St Padre Pio and St Leopold Mandic!

 

What does God think?-The Pope Video

Thought for the Day (Sunday 10th January)

I had just been reading and reflecting upon the repercussions and impact of the Francis’ recent global video prayer request known as “the Pope Video”. At night I am in the habit of opening my Bible to read what I believe God reveals to me through His Holy and Living Word. I do not choose the passage. I open my Bible with simple faith and He provides.

I’d like to share these with you more regularly. His Word is for ALL his people. If you are not in this habit already (of reading your Bible daily) then you need to make this a priority.

First, to have the context, you need to watch this blasphemous video:

 

This is the Bible Reading I opened upon thereafter:

2 John: 9-11

Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of CHRIST, does NOT HAVE GOD.

He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has BOTH the Father and the Son.

If anyone comes to you and DOES NOT bring THIS doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him. For he who greets him shares in his evil deeds.

 

Also you may read the various comments made by people which expose the errors of indifferentism within the video. We have provided one comment for readers, below:

DAVE WEBSTER commented on The “Pope Video” condemned by the Catechism of the Catholic Church – More Analysis. in response to Donna Liane’s Thought for the Day (above)

“Right to the point Donna!

So why is it that those who know Christ and reject Him or merely would not accept Him if they did hear, DO NOT KNOW the true God?

Simply because Christ revealed what God was truly like and that means those who have or who would reject Him do not know the true God.

Certainly there are varying degrees of divergence from the correct understanding of the true God that non Christians have, but all contain error which misrepresents the true God.

It is a serious deceit to merely call these “differences.” These “differences” are errors and can have fatal consequences. For starters these can leave followers of false religion justified in actual mortal sin.

False religions also divide peoples and nations which lead to conflict and war. The dominance of Protestantism in England and the US opened the door for the capture of both these nations by the rabidly antichrist Rothschild bankers and the Masonic Illuminati.

If one does any research at all they would know that the so called “Reformation” which threw out the Catholic Church’s strict laws against usury, opened the door to England and the US becoming the BEAST upon whose back has ridden the Great monetary, banking and commercial Whore of Babylon. That Anglo-American BEAST has created the greatest havoc in the world.

The weakness of Protestantism is now an open book. This divided Christianity has left the Catholic Church itself vulnerable to the Great Whore and the BEAST. If we make this observation about the seriousness of Protestant “differences” what could we say for Muslim “differences”! And we are not putting all Protestants or Muslims individually in the same boat!

It’s the overall effect in the world of all that is not completely of Christ which has divided us and brought us to the edge of human extinction.”

Pope Francis’ Questionable Statements

(The following contribution is from a fellow Crusader from a document entitled “Raising Awareness”)

Pope Francis’ statements in his papacy reveal a person who embraces humanism and places a person’s earthly life, wants and needs above that of a soul’s salvation.

As Christ’s vicar, he has issued a number of statements that raise eyebrows and contradict the Holy Bible and Church teachings. Whether the reader is Catholic or non-Catholic, your personal beliefs are not in question here. As Christ’s representative on earth, the pope’s statements should correspond with the teachings of the Church whose founder he represents.

Here is a sampling of Pope Francis’ statements compared to Catholic Church teachings:

  •  Pope Francis: “I don’t proselytize.” [Proselytize: verb, convert or attempt to convert someone.] 

Holy Bible: Mark 16: 15And he said to them: Go into the whole world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16He that believes and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believes not shall be condemned.

  •  Pope Francis: …”The Lord has redeemed all of us, all of us, with the Blood of Christ: all of us, not just Catholics. Everyone! ‘Father, the atheists?’ Even the atheists. Everyone! And this Blood makes us children of God of the first class! We are created children in the likeness of God and the Blood of Christ has redeemed us all! And we all have a duty to do good. And this commandment for everyone to do good, I think, is a beautiful path towards peace. If we, each doing our own part, if we do good to others, if we meet there, doing good, and we go slowly, gently, little by little, we will make that culture of encounter: we need that so much. We must meet one another doing good. ‘But I don’t believe, Father, I am an atheist!’ But do good: we will meet one another there.”… May 21, 2013

Holy Bible: John 14: 6  – Jesus said to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father, but by me.

  •   Pope Francis: …”When we go to confession, for example, it isn’t that we say our sin and God forgives us. No, not that! We look for Jesus Christ and say: ‘This is your sin, and I will sin again’. And Jesus likes that, because it was his mission: to become the sinner for us, to liberate us.”… -June 15, 2013

Holy Bible: 1 John 3: 5And you know that He appeared to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.

  •  Pope Francis: …“the Last Judgement. We need not be afraid.”…- Dec 11, 2013

Holy Bible: Matthew 7:21: Not everyone that says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.

  •  Pope Francis: “The Church and the Virgin Mary are mothers, both of them; what is said of the Church can be said also of Our Lady and what is said of Our Lady can also be said of the Church! All mothers have defects…”

Pope Pius IX, Dec 8, 1854, exCathedra: We declare, pronounce, and define that the doctrine which holds that the most Blessed Virgin Mary, in the first instance of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege granted by Almighty God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the human race, was preserved free from all stain of original sin, is a doctrine revealed by God and therefore to be believed firmly and constantly by all the faithful. [exCathedra: an infallible Church statement]

  • Pope Francis: “God is not a divine being or a magician, but the Creator who brought everything to life.” – Oct 28, 2014

Cathechism of the Catholic Church: 52: God wants to communicate his own divine life to the men he freely created, in order to adopt them as his sons in his only begotten Son.

Pope Francis continues to utter questionable statements that need to be scrutinized. Always be on the lookout of what Pope Francis says and check its validity against the Holy Bible.
