Sometimes, it seems the Pope takes more pleasure in challenging the church that he leads than he does promoting the values he was entrusted to protect. Ever since he was elected head of the Roman Catholic Church, the Pope seemed to immediately embark on an apology tour for the beliefs and actions of his predecessors.
Of course, Pope Francis didn’t let the bounds of the his faith box him in, either. He quickly branched out to tackle hot-button issues such as capitalism and immigration, as well.
Now, the pope is even challenging the church’s firmly held beliefs on homosexuality. Homosexuality has long been one of the most condemnable sins in the eyes of the church, but the pontiff is once again reversing course by asking his followers to accepts gays and lesbians.
See what he asked of the church on the next page:
Guess he’d better reread his bible. We are all born sinners, living in sin and we all fall short of the glory of God.

He did not establish a church/denomination. His way of worship in the Bible is the worship He wants us to do. Did you know that early believers actually followed the Biblical feasts, Holy Days and Sabbath (not Sun-god worship day)? The Roman CC was the one that changed all that and told believers they could NOT worship the way the Bible taught. And that’s why they interpret the Bible for parishioners and don’t encourage them to read it for themselves except out of the prayer books. No man (not even the Pope) can change what YHWH has ordained.
Somebody needs to buy him a Bible….

Sorry, Joan, but anyone who knows the Catholic Faith and lives his life Dad true Catholic knows THE WHOLE TRUTH that the Lord teaches only thru the Church He established for you and I. No power on earth can ever dissuade me from adhering to my Catholic Faith, and deny it by effectively saying God established more than 40,000 Churches on earth. It is easy to question someone who profess to be “once a 100 percent Catholic” and yet renouncing it. Look into your heart and examine your conscience, talk to yourself, do I know what I am doing. Jesus during the three years he preached, had garnered thousands upon thousands of followers (converts). But when He told them He was the Bread come down from heaven – Telling them, UNLESS you eat of the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood, you have NO LIFE within you…”. They all left, in the same way “100 percent Catholics” renounces the Church by saying, ‘I am no longer Catholic.’… only 12 of the hundreds of thousands of Jesus followers stayed with him: His Apostles…
Sorry YES THEY ARE!!
Never said 100% Catholic I said you would be 100% wrong.
So according to you you must be a Catholic to have a relationship with God and be welcomed into his Kingdom upon death ? Sorry, not buying it.
Wonder how many boys he has helped?
I think the pope is living in sin and trying to justify his behavior.
