One man who is out to
open many old "secrets" in
the Catholic church is Pope
Francis. Some of the beliefs
that are held in the church
but contrary to the loving
nature of God are now
being set aside by the Pope
who was recently name The
Man of The Year by TIME
Magazine,
Nigeriaonpoint.Com
observed.
In his latest revelations,
Pope Francis said:
"Through humility, soul
searching, and prayerful
contemplation we have
gained a new understanding
of certain dogmas. The
church no longer believes in
a literal hell where people
suffer. This doctrine is
incompatible with the infinite
love of God. God is not a
judge but a friend and a
lover of humanity. God seeks
not to condemn but only to
embrace. Like the fable of
Adam and Eve, we see hell
as a literary device. Hell is
merely a metaphor for the
isolated soul, which like all
souls ultimately will be
united in love with God .”
In a shocking speech that is
reverberating across the
world, Pope Francis
declared that:
“All religions are true,
because they are true in the
hearts of all those who
believe in them. What other
kind of truth is there? In
the past, the church has
been harsh on those it
deemed morally wrong or
sinful. Today, we no longer
judge . Like a loving father,
we never condemn our
children. Our church is big
enough for heterosexuals
and homosexuals, for the
pro-life and the pro-choice!
For conservatives and
liberals, even communists
are welcome and have
joined us. We all love and
worship the same God.”
In the last six months,
Catholic cardinals, bishops
and theologians have been
deliberating in the Vatican
City, in discussing the
future of the church and
redefining long-held
Catholic doctrines and
dogmas. The Third Vatican
Council, is the largest and
most important since the
Second Vatican Council was
concluded in 1962.
Pope Francis convened the
new council to “finally
finish the work of the
Second Vatican Council.”
The Third Vatican Council
concluded with Pope
Francis announcing that...
Catholicism is now a
“modern and reasonable
religion, which has
undergone evolutionary
changes. The time has come
to abandon all intolerance.
We must recognize that
religious truth evolves and
changes. Truth is not
absolute or set in stone.
Even atheists acknowledge
the divine. Through acts of
love and charity the atheist
acknowledges God as well,
and redeems his own soul,
becoming an active
participant in the
redemption of humanity.”
One statement in the Pope’s
speech has sent
traditionalists into a fit of
confusion and hysteria...
“God is changing and
evolving as we are, For God
lives in us and in our
hearts. When we spread
love and kindness in the
world, we touch our own
divinity and recognize it.
The Bible is a beautiful holy
book, but like all great and
ancient works, some
passages are outdated.
Some even call for
intolerance or judgement.
The time has come to see
these verses as later
interpolations, contrary to
the message of love and
truth, which otherwise
radiates through scripture.
In accordance with our new
understanding, we will
begin to ordain women as
cardinals, bishops and
priests. In the future, it is
my hope that we will have
a woman pope one day. Let
no door be closed to
women that is open to
men!”
A few cardinals in the
Catholic church are against
Pope Francis' latest
declarations. Watch out for
the report.
