Oh really? Well, here's some truth about Benny: He is most assuredly no holy father!
Pope: Christ Was Not a Prophet!
November 19, 2012 • From theTrumpet.com
In a startling statement made during his Monday Angelus (For those of you who don't know, that's a prayer to Mary.) to the faithful, Pope Benedict declares Jesus Christ was no prophet.
“At midday today the holy father appeared at the window of his study to recite the Angelus with faithful gathered in St. Peter’s Square. He commented on this Sunday’s gospel, focusing on Jesus’s words about the end of time.” So begins the report by the Vatican’s own Information Service on a public statement the pope made on Sunday.
In a startling pronouncement about Jesus Christ’s revelation of the signs leading up to His return to Earth, Pope Benedict declared that “Jesus does not describe the end of the world, and when He uses apocalyptic images, He does not act as a ‘seer.’ On the contrary, He wishes to ensure that His disciples in every age remain unmoved by dates and predictions.”
This statement is so far removed from reality, it can only represent a deliberate attempt to pervert the truth. It argues against the very reality of biblical revelation itself.
The very power by which Jesus Christ ministered on Earth was clearly revealed as a Spirit which “will show you things to come” (John 16:13).
Jesus Christ Himself gave, in live format, delivered direct to His disciples, the most powerfully detailed prophecy about the future, most especially the end times, that is preserved in the Bible (Matthew 24; Mark 13, Luke 21).
The Word of God declares of the very Godhead, “Worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy” (Revelation 19:10).
The pope’s statement is not just a grave deceit. It goes beyond that. It is plain blasphemy.
But why should we be surprised?
The very prophecies of the end time speak of an individual heading a great religious entity that is given “a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies … And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God” (Revelation 13:5-6).
It stands to reason that the very one who is prophesied to look like a lamb but speak like a dragon (Revelation 13:11) would eventually have to dissuade the masses from believing what the greatest prophet ever—Jesus Christ—declared of him in His Word.
In reality, the pope’s words are a declaration of war against those who preserve the testimony of the greatest of prophets, Jesus Christ. Consider this revelatory verse concerning the times in which we live: “And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ” (Revelation 12:17).
The testimony of Jesus Christ is the spirit of prophecy, a revelatory spirit that exposes Babylonish religion and reveals the deceitful, blasphemous spirit that dominates it (Revelation 17).
This latest statement by Pope Benedict ought to powerfully motivate any who still have a remaining vestige of the testimony of Jesus Christ remaining in their memory to hastily repent and come cleave to the Father of lights where His lamp of revelatory truth burns so brightly!
The time for taking such action—and thus gaining God’s protection from the devastation of the great end-time Tribulation prophesied by Jesus Christ (Matthew 24:21)—is fast running out!
If you are such a one who is beginning to see the light, you need to read our books Malachi’s Message to God’s Church Today and Raising the Ruins. Together they will give you a unique understanding of just how the great deceiver has worked to turn God’s own people away from the great prophecies of Jesus Christ for our day.
But more, those books will lead you back to that great source of truth, Jesus Christ, the Word of God, the chief of the prophets! They will lead you to an understanding of current world and church conditions, what they portend for the future, and just how you can fit in to that emerging vision and even have a real part in contributing to it coming about!
