THE MAGAZINE OF RECORD FOR THE LAST DAYS
ARE YOU READY FOR WHAT COMES NEXT?
Asked in July how it felt to have been termed by one American television presenter “the most dangerous man on the planet”, Francis merely replied that “every criticism must be received, studied, and then dialogue must ensue”.
POPE FRANCIS PREPARES FOR
MOST POLITICAL TRIP YET
“And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.”
EDITOR’S NOTE: The Bible declares that the Whore of Babylon is the Vatican system that rules over the kings of the earth in the last days. So the fact that we are now seeing Pope Francis making such bold moves into the political realm comes as no surprise. The Roman Empire never ended, it simply went from being a political kingdom to a religious one, and now in the end times the Vatican will again seize political power to create one, single religious and political kingdom from which the False Prophet will pave the way for Antichrist. We believe that Pope Francis is indeed that False Prophet.

VATICAN CITY – POPE FRANCIS IS GEARING UP FOR POTENTIONALLY HIS MOST POLITICALLY CHARGED TRIP YET, AN EIGHT-DAY WHIRLWIND VISIT WHICH WILL TAKE HIM FROM HAVANA’S REVOLUTION SQUARE IN CUBA TO THE HEADQUARTERS OF THE UNITED NATIONS.The Argentine, who will become the first pontiff to address a joint meeting of Congress in Washington, has taken advantage of a summer lull at the Vatican to fine-tune his hotly awaited speeches, sources at the Holy See say.
For his three-day visit to Cuba, beginning on September 19, Francis can expect a warm reception from the Castro regime following recognition of the key role he played in Havana’s reconciliation with the United States this year.
But anticipation ahead of the US leg of the trip, which will kick off in Washington on September 22, has already sparked conflicting reactions — as well as a boom in Francis-themed souvenirs and trinkets.
The welcome from some American politicians is expected to be chilly. The 78-year-old’s decision to visit Havana before Washington has not gone down well, particularly as Congress has yet to lift the embargo against Cuba.
HIS ENVIRONMENTAL ENCYCLICAL AND RECENT IMPASSIONED SPEECHES IN LATIN AMERICA AGAINST THE FREE MARKET SYSTEM, BLIND CAPITALISM AND RABID EXPLOITATION BY MULTINATIONALS OF NATURAL RESOURCES, HAVE SEEN HIM ACCUSED OF MARXIM.
Asked in July how it felt to have been termed by one American television presenter “the most dangerous man on the planet”, Francis merely replied that “every criticism must be received, studied, and then dialogue must ensue”.
HIS SPEECH TO CONGRESS WILL BE A HISTORIC MOMENT, AND THE OUTSPOKEN POPE WILL LIKELY MAKE NO BONES ABOUT THE SUPERPOWER’S RESPONSIBILITIES IN LEADING THE WAY ON TACKLING POLLUTION AND EMBRACING RENEWABLE ENERGY.
The fifth visit by a pope to the UN, dubbed the “Glass Palace”, will see the Argentine hold forth on the social and ecological themes most dear to him, particularly ills such as the “culture of waste” and “globalisation of indifference”.
Francis is expected to urge member states to make concrete commitments at the Paris climate change summit in December. He is also likely to call for renewed efforts towards securing peace in the Middle East and greater dialogue with Islam, as well as insisting on the need to defend persecuted Christians around the world. source
A Selected Comment From The Article:
I have become familiar with the false doctrines taught by the Catholic church but have also read articles about a so-called satanic cult located within the Vatican. I don’t know how much is true or not. Regardless, Pope Francis has stood out from the very beginning as one who delights in shaking the beliefs of most Catholics – mostly by issuing statements concerning salvation of gays, everyone being saved, divorcées being allowed to marry and participate in communion as well as those who have had abortions. This has made him the poster boy for ‘love and acceptance’ that draws even non-catholics to him. All of these are moral issues but suddenly he has switched gears to political issues such as speaking against capitalism and for climate change.
I have been skeptical that he is slated to be the last pope due to the fact that so many descriptions of the past popes in the Malachi prophesy are very vague as well as it being a non-Biblical source. However,
Something he said in response to a question some months ago shocked me into believing he might really be the last pope. I don’t remember the question exactly – something about did he think he would retire someday like the last pope – and he replied, ‘I have this feeling that I will not remain as pope for much longer, possibly a year or maybe two.’ Was he giving the world a hint of changes that were to be coming – maybe that he will no longer be pope because he will be the head of the one world religion or could he possibly be speaking of the arrival of the anti-christ? Call me crazy but he spoke with such confidence. It is also true that I am so looking forward to the Rapture and the Second Coming of Christ that I may jump too quickly on anything that may give us more hope. Forgive me – just sounding off.
