Pope Francis is Too Liberal Even for Most Catholics July 7, 2016
“If someone is gay and he searches for the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge?” was Pope Francis’ famous statement regarding homosexuality. The truth is, even most Catholics find the current pope to be too liberal. Pope Francis Literally Embraces Sodomites The following is an excerpt from the Washington Post Article, 8 of Pope Francis’ Most Liberal Statements where we are given the pope’s reaction to transgenderism: “In a quietly arranged meeting at the Vatican, Francis welcomed Diego Neria Lejarraga, 48. Born a woman, Lejarraga later underwent a procedure to become a transgender man. Once called “the devil’s daughter” by a local priest in his native Spain, Lejarraga sought solace from Francis in a meeting privately confirmed by Vatican officials. Francis invited both Lejarraga and his fiancee to the Vatican for an audience. When Lejarrage asked the pope if he had a place in the church, the pontiff reportedly responded by embracing him.” Go Diego Go! (to Hell) You see, according to Pope Francis, even atheists go to Heaven. The Catholic Church is Changing Fast Another Washington Post article, Pope Francis Calls for Inclusion of Gays in Society, Saying he has no Right to ‘Judge’ highlights the difference between the previous pope, Benedict, and the current pope, Francis: “Even though Benedict called on Catholics to show “great respect for [gay] people,” he oversaw the publication of a church document that called homosexual inclinations “disordered” and called for men with “deep-seated” homo tendencies to be barred from the priesthood. He also said same-sex marriage was an insidious threat to the common good.” Catholicism is a pagan religion that teaches a works salvation. All Catholic popes are wicked, but my point is that Pope Francis being so liberal is a sign of the times. Society is changing fast. “1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.”- 2 Timothy 3 The next generation of Catholics might be less likely to notice as their popes wax worse and worse, but right now at least some Catholics are searching for a more biblical alternative. People think that hard preaching only turns people away, but often, it has the opposite effect. Recently, I heard about some Catholics visiting a Baptist church after hearing that the pastor preached hard against the Sodomites.
