So the Critics of Pope Francis have been loud and increasing just as much as the calls of social justice and climate change have excited the leftists in America. Then there was the alleged bombshell that the Pope went a step further when he discussed the “failure” of Jesus’ life and the “failure of the cross.”
Pope Francis’ first stop in New York was at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan, where, at an evening prayer, he touched on the spirit of gratitude and hard work before making the shocking statement. Let’s run a review on the next page:
The above has been taken out of context. He stated the following
“The cross shows us a different way of measuring success. Ours is to plant the seeds. God sees to the fruits of our labors. And if at times our efforts and works seem to fail and not produce fruit, we need to remember that we are followers of Jesus Christ and his life, humanly speaking, ended in failure, the failure of the cross.”
The key words are “seems to fail and not produce fruit” and “humanly speaking.” Humanly speaking the cross does appear to be a failure but to those who are believers we know different.
The Apostle Paul writes the above message in an another way but with the same meaning:
“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.” (1Co 1:18)
“For indeed Jews ask for signs and Greeks search for wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness, but to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.” (1Co 1:22-24)
Thank you SATAN!
Not my Pope
Charles u r so right he is not a real man of faith. I ve been saying that all along. I do not like him at all.n will never listen to him.
Anti Christ
Angry religious cultists in 3…2…1
Definitely need a new Pope. This guy is frightening and has absolutely no relationship with Jesus. Is the whole Vatican so corrupt they can’t remove him and get someone who truly loves God?????
You’re all a scourge on society
My dear fellow humans,…..its a known fact that nothing sounds stranger than the truth its self,and therefore,…… Your response to the truth is justified. To the deaf with ears,just face your destiny with courage, and to them given ears that hear the voice of ELOHIM its wise to take note and pay attention. Peace.
Jesus is gonna tell this guy some day ”Depart from me, I never knew you”
