In New York, Pope Francis Embraced Chrislam And Laid A Foundation For A One World Religion
By Michael Snyder, on September 27th, 2015
Remarks
made by Pope Francis at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan have
sparked a firestorm of criticism from those that do not believe that
Christians and Muslims worship the same God. Many have taken the Pope’s
remarks as a major step in the direction of a one world religion, and
the truth is that the Pope has made other such statements in the past.
In recent years, the theory that Christianity and Islam are just two
distinct paths to God among many others has rapidly gained traction all
over the planet. Some religious leaders have even gone so far as to try
to merge Islamic and Christian practices, and the term “Chrislam” is
now often used to describe this ecumenical movement. If all this sounds
incredibly strange to you, just keep reading, because this is just the
tip of the iceberg.
What Pope Francis had to say at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan
has received very little coverage by the mainstream media, but it was
exceedingly significant. The following is how he began his address…
I would like to express two sentiments for my Muslim
brothers and sisters: Firstly, my greetings as they celebrate the feast
of sacrifice. I would have wished my greeting to be warmer. My
sentiments of closeness, my sentiments of closeness in the face of
tragedy. The tragedy that they suffered in Mecca.
In this moment, I give assurances of my prayers. I unite myself with you all. A prayer to almighty god, all merciful.
He did not choose those words by accident. In Islam, Allah is known as “the all-merciful one”. If you doubt this, just do a Google search.
And this is not the first time Pope Francis has used such language.
For instance, the following comes from remarks that he made during his very first ecumenical meeting as Pope…
I then greet and cordially thank you all, dear friends belonging to other religious traditions; first of all the Muslims, who worship the one God, living and merciful, and call upon Him in prayer,
and all of you. I really appreciate your presence: in it I see a
tangible sign of the will to grow in mutual esteem and cooperation for
the common good of humanity.
The Catholic Church is aware of the importance of promoting
friendship and respect between men and women of different religious
traditions – I wish to repeat this: promoting friendship and respect
between men and women of different religious traditions – it also
attests the valuable work that the Pontifical Council for interreligious
dialogue performs.
Pope Francis clearly believes that Christians and Muslims worship the
exact same God. And so that helps to explain why he authorized “Islamic prayers and readings from the Quran” at the Vatican for the first time ever back in 2014.
Catholicism and Islam are the two largest religions on the entire
planet, and so any one world religion would need to incorporate both of
those belief systems. Sadly, this Pope seems to be quite eager to lay
the groundwork for such a one world religion.
Pope Francis made another statement at St. Patrick’s Cathedral that
has shocked believers all over the planet. Apparently this Pope seems
to think that the cross was a “failure”…
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.
After he made that statement, he didn’t continue to go on and explain
that the cross was ultimately a great victory. He just ended his
thought and moved on to other topics.
Needless to say, many are extremely upset by this. The following comes from Leo Zagami of Infowars.com…
These words have of course outraged most true Christians
around the world who cannot imagine Christianity without the value of
the cross, which symbolizes the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus for mankind.
It’s impossible for a Christian of any denomination to imagine the very
essence of their faith being discussed in this way, let alone by the
Pope. The fact that blood was shed on the cross by Jesus for the
ultimate self-sacrifice that could help rid mankind of all sins is one
of those essentials of the Faith that should never be questioned.
The mainstream media persists with their undying affection for Pope Francis, never commenting on this outrageous statement.
But even though the Pope is saying things like this, his legend just
seems to grow by the day. Even in the United States, throngs of
faithful devotees are treating him like he is some sort of supernatural being…
Everywhere he goes, Pope Francis attracts worshipful
crowds of people, straining and reaching to touch any part of him as if
something spiritual and holy could be imparted to them by doing so.
People weep, they cry, they hold up their sick children and beg him to
touch them in the hopes they will be healed.
And this is even true of members of Congress. Just check out the disgraceful behavior that some of them have displayed…
Representative Bob Brady, a devout Catholic and Democrat from Pennsylvania immediately made his way to the podium after Pope Francis finished speaking
and grabbed the glass that was still filled with water. He then drank
the water, gave some of the water to his wife Debra, and saved the rest
for his grandchildren. Representative Brady took photos as well, and had
his staff send them out to the press. He also shared some of the water
with members of his staff and assistant, also a devout Catholic. As for
the saved water, he plans to sprinkle it on his grandchildren and one
great-grandchild.
I don’t know about you, but major alarm bells start going off for me when I read stuff like this.
We are witnessing the initial stages of the rise of a one world
religion, and much of the planet is ultimately going to embrace it. LINK>
