Message #35418

[Psalm 51:17]

The video shows how a priest leans across the boy or young man to tell Francis something, at which point the Pope’s expression becomes more serious.
 
The Pontiff then grips the top of the subject’s head firmly and is seen pushing him down into his wheelchair.

As this is happening Francis recites an intense prayer, and the boy’s mouth drops wide open and he exhales sharply.

If you guys remember me telling you about that Asian missionary guy that visited my mom's church once in awhile, and then came over to our house a couple of times in 2011...and then it was in Dec of that year when he called me out in front of the pastor and my parents how I had no love for God, had darkness, and idolatry...he pretty much proceeded to do the same thing as this Pope Francis did to this young man - grab my head with his hand and started screaming in some unknown tongue, like he was warring with some devils inside me.

Anyhow - reminded me of this when I saw the video of Pope Francis doing this - it seems like the RCC is obsessed with "fighting spiritual warfare". But for anyone that reads their bibles, nowhere does it say they do anything what they do(exorcism or whatever).

The new Pope has made it quite clear since his election that he believes the Devil, whom refers to as “the Enemy” and “The Prince of this World” is a real force that needs to be fought constantly.

Uhm...scripture says otherwise...

[] = emphasis mine

Hebrews 2:14  Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he[Jesus] also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;
Heb 2:15  And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

1John_3:8  He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Also another comment to what this Pope said about how the devil is a real force that needs to be fought constantly - throughout my years attending Churchianity, one of the things I've heard numerous times was that if we're even the least bit distracted during the pastor's sermon, it means we're letting the devil harass us. Uhm...this has got to be the MOST STUPIDEST thing anyone has ever heard. So are they saying the devil is really this omnipresent? But on the contrary, the pastor gets a free pass for preaching out of these dead, perverted bibles like the NIV?

Of course, nowhere in the bible does it say the devil is omnipresent and omnipotent. On the contrary, it says he's been cast down out of heaven in the book of Isaiah.

Isaiah 14:12  How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!

John_12:31  Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

Yeah, you can see that Catholic leaven in Churchianity today.

2Cor 11:13  For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
2Co 11:14  And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
2Co 11:15  Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
