Christ gave His Life to leave us His Body so that we would have access to His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Consequently, Christ and the Catholic Church are one and the same. <br /><br />God does not offer salvation through a smorgasbord of religions. There is One God, He has One Church and It is Holy, Apostolic, Catholic Church. The salvation of those outside of the Catholic Church is therefore in peril because they are in a place that has absolutely no power to save souls. The Catholic Church is the only religion left by God that offers salvation. Anyone and everyone who obtains salvation will go through the Catholic Church which again, is Christ Himself. <br /><br />On the day of reckoning, there may be mitigating factors that will save some of the souls who did not avail themselves of the tools of salvation on earth and mercy will apply. Those who were catechized will not be among them.<br /><br />Hope this makes sense.TTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08738875888053745269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-20355191172853388232016-04-17T17:30:02.435-04:002016-04-17T17:30:02.435-04:00Dorota, while I agree with your opinion on the Pop...Dorota, while I agree with your opinion on the Pope, I must remind you that God is <i>not</i> <br />Catholic. He's also not Protestant, Eastern Orthodox, Jewish, etc. God is God. Period.

To be fair, I think those that say that he is 'confused, senile, and even demented' CANNOT BELIEVE the emphatically heretical and CLEAR statements that come out of the mouth of the 'Vicar of Christ'. They think he must have a 'mental problem' of some sort. The telling part of this whole disaster are the prelates who insist that 'everything is just fine, he has not changed one thing, business as usual', when they KNOW DARN WELL that AL is an earthquake that is designed to damage and maybe even destroy the Church of Christ as we know it.TLMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16185788425122984772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-87146249663432491192016-04-14T14:58:19.795-04:002016-04-14T14:58:19.795-04:00No surprises here.

No reasonable Catholic could be confused at least from the moment Francis Bergoglio stated to Scalfari that atheists who do what seems right to them go to haven. Or since he said, like a true weasel, that God is not Catholic. <br /><br />If Bergoglio is confusing anyone, it is those who want to be confused or those unable to reason on the level of an average 7 year old. <br /><br />He, whom many accused of being senile (or excused on the grounds of alleged senility) is heretically, brutally, very successfully and completely unashamedly pushing for one world religion, while papolatry or cognitive dissonance keep the flock distructed. <br /><br />Bergoglio denies Christ. He says, like a true weasel, not directly but repeatedly and very clearly nonetheless, that Christ is not the Way, the Truth and the Life. Dorota Mosiewicz-Patalasnoreply@blogger.com
