O boy are you missing the forest for the trees here.

The man has publicly told billions of Muslims and atheists they do not need Jesus for salvation.

Jesus said He is the way, the truth and the life and NO ONE comes to the Father but through Him.

Now what do you call a perosn who calls Jesus a liar and deceiver on the single most important truth in the entire universe?

Yes sir, that is a ubiquitous problem. We have a lot of people today who "need to meet Jesus!" Either way!

People today (even many who claim to be Christians) are more excited at the idea of meeting aliens than meeting Jesus.

Its far more of a political identity they grew up in than an actual genuine faith they live their lives by.

Notice also how many always identify as a denomination and never identify themselves as a Christian. And other than those occasional moments when they identify as a denomination you never here or see anything in their life that wound remotely suggest they are an actual believer.

Some here may take that as a dig against them personally, but its actually just a general fact I see with a lot of people. Its sad, unfortunate and a highway to hell for too many people that would tell you all day long they are a (insert denomination).

Ha, one of the oldest religious jokes I know is where the Revival Preacher asks everyone who wants to go to heaven to raise their hand, and everyone but an old farmer near the back of the Church does. The Revivalist walks down the aisle and looks him in the eyes and says, "Brother don't you want to go to heaven?" The old farmer says, "Sure I do! I just thought you wanted to leave today!"

White smoke? The Pope is a self-avowed Socialist! His lesser of two evils (weevils) is not the same as yours or mine! Unless of course you are implying a new Pope. If so, Salute!

That's the only thing it can mean when discussing a Pope.

no clue what that means but I listened to the whole interview and he doesn't like either candidate and that's fine he's allowed to have his own opinion.

He's from the Liberation theology wing. Its not for me to judge, but he doesn't seem like he's actually a Christian.

They won't put a true Marxist in the Vatican. A true Marxist denies God. The Vatican is part of the corporate new world order because that is where they are invested. A socialist to provide cheap labor for corporate production and profit is all they need. And that's no attack upon millions of true Catholics who practice their faith. But it is the same corruption you see at the top of most protestant denominations which are hierarchical in nature. Congregationalists don't have that problem, though they tend to have problems of a different nature.

He is a dyed in the wool socialist. He made the statement that not allowing (illegal) immigrants into a country and providing them sanctuary is a sin.

He's one of the reasons I am no longer a practicing Catholic and have developed a very bad taste for organized religions across the entire spectrum. I don't need a priest to moderate my conversations with Jesus.

You absolutely do not and the Bible is clear on this.

Jesus, the Apostles and the entire NT teaches you go to Jesus yourself. He is the only intercessor between us and the Father. He died on the cross specifically to be our salvation and for us to come directly to Him for it. You repent and place your faith and trust in His death, burial and Resurrection alone as your only salvation.

You cannot put your faith in your own works or in a priest. Good works and fruits are a direct by product of genuine faith and salvation. They flow out of salvation, they are not a path to it.

This is also how you KNOW you have salvation and are not just hoping for it. You will see the fruits of it grow in your own life.

This is literally what the NT teaches virtually word for word, as well as the early church of the 1st and 2nd century.

All this other crap about Mary and priests forgiving your sins and works based salvation came in starting in the 3rd and 4th centuries thanks to the gnostics.

Thank you for saying all that, I needed to hear it and didn't even know it.

Let's take the scenic route, we may not see the the truly butt ugly days for another 10-20-30 years, that should be plenty of time. With my luck I'll live to be 98.

He also said that not accommodating illegal immigrants is a sin, he said it about something else too but I can't remember what it was.

Why hasn't that old commie thrown open the gates of the Vatican and invited all the weary travelers to bunk there for a while?
