Is Pope Francis Laying The Groundwork For A One World Religion? "After he was elected, the cover of Time Magazine declared Pope Francis to be the 'New World Pope', and since his election Pope Francis has made it abundantly clear that he is going to make ecumenical outreach a top priority. ...

      "For example, in one recent address he made it a point to say that he believes that Muslims worship and pray to the 'one God' that he also worships.  This 'all roads lead to the same God' philosophy is a hallmark of the one world religion that the global elite have been slowly building toward for decades. The global elite know that even with a one world economy and a one world government, humanity will never be truly united until there is a single global religion.

     "Unfortunately, this one world religion that they are seeking to establish is diametrically opposed to the Christianity that we find in the Bible. ...

     "...are 'Allah' and the God of the Bible the same thing? Of course not. For example, Christians believe that Jesus Christ is God. Muslims deny this vehemently. For much more on why 'Allah' and the God of the Bible are not the same, please see this article. So either Pope Francis is denying the divinity of Jesus Christ, or he is exhibiting a frightening ignorance of basic Christian theology, or there is some other agenda at work here." See next link:

Will Pope Francis [compromise with] the Islamists?  "Al-Azhar University and the Muslim Brotherhood are reaching out to Pope Francis for a fresh start. The International Union of Muslim Scholars, a body led by Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Yousef al-Qaradawi, said it is ready to engage the Vatican. 'We will work together for an integrated system of moral values and we will remain united to fight injustice, corruption and violations of human dignity in the world,' the Islamist group said. As is often the case with Islamist interfaith outreach, there is a political objective. The Union emphasized, 'We will remain united in defending the legitimate rights of the Palestinian and Syrian populations.”   See Utilization of Dissatisfaction

Pope Urges More Dialogue With Islam: "Pope Francis urged the West on Friday to intensify dialogue with Islam and appealed to the world to do more to combat poverty and protect the environment...

      "He urged them to help keep religion central in public life and promote inter-religious dialogue as a catalyst for efforts to build peace. 'In this work (peace building), the role of religion is fundamental. ...it is not possible to establish true links with God while ignoring other people. Hence it is important to intensify dialogue among the various religions, and I am thinking particularly of dialogue with Islam.' ...

      "Dialogue, he said, 'should help to build bridges connecting all people, in such a way that everyone can see in the other not an enemy, not a rival, but a brother or sister.'" 

On Gay Unions, a Pragmatist Before He Was a Pope: "Argentina was on the verge of approving gay marriage, and the Roman Catholic Church was desperate to stop that from happening. ... But behind the scenes, Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who led the public charge against the measure, spoke out in a heated meeting of bishops in 2010 and advocated a highly unorthodox solution: that the church in Argentina support the idea of civil unions for gay couples."

Who Are the Jesuits? Why the First Jesuit Pope Could Signify the ‘New Evangelization’ of Christians: "The Society of Jesus, which later became known simply as the Jesuits, was founded in 1534 by Ignatius Loyola, a Spaniard like Pope Francis. The mission of the organization was to spread Roman Catholicism throughout the world, and to protect the power of the pope and the practices of Roman Catholicism from the Protestant Reformation, so that the pope may remain God’s authority on the earth....

Repeated  More Secrecy.  Supreme Court Justice John Roberts Lauded by Knights of Malta for “ObamaCare” Vote: "Universal socialized healthcare has long been the goal of the Vatican and its Secret Societies. So when U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts single-handedly forced United States citizens to accept President Obama’s unsavory and heavily socialist 'ObamaCare' legislation with his deciding (5-4) vote, the American judge, a devout Roman Catholic, won the immediate acclaim of his brothers in such secretive and infamous groups as the Knights of Malta and Opus Dei....

      "Immediately after casting his vote and writing the majority opinion on ObamaCare, John Roberts told the Washington, D.C. press corps that, to escape the furor and controversy that erupted, he was heading to an 'impregnable fortress to escape.' ... That impregnable fortress... [was] Malta, the unofficial citadel of the papacy’s Knights of Malta....

      "It was on this same geographic island location where, in 1984, President George H. W. Bush and Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev had met on ships in the harbor and forged the 'New World Order.'... At Malta, U.S. Judge Roberts was met by the top potentates of the Rome-headquartered Knights of Malta, including Grand Master Matthew Festig of Great Britain...."

Will a Notorious Anti-Semite Become The Pope?  "Among those being considered to succeed Pope Benedict XVI is a notorious anti-Semite, Cardinal Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras.... He was also under consideration the last time around, and his Latin American heritage is considered a plus this time. ...Rodriguez Maradiaga is an out and out Jew-hater. He has said that 'the Jews' are to blame for the scandal surrounding the sexual misconduct of priests toward young parishioners!

     "The Jews?  ...Here is his 'logic.' He begins by asserting that the Vatican is anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian (as he says it should be). ... Maradiaga then goes on to compare the Jewish controlled media with 'Hitler'..."

Will Cardinal Peter Turkson Someday Become 'Peter the Roman'? "Cardinal Peter Turkson, 61, the Archbishop of Cape Coast, Ghana... will succeed Cardinal Renato Martino, 77, as the head of the Vatican’s Council for Justice and Peace.... The fact that Cardinal Turkson's first name is Peter and he is being called to minister in Rome will very likely become a subject of intense interest."

Revising the Bible.  Next for ‘Survivor’ Producer: Bible-Based Scripted Drama: "Mark Burnett made a name as the most prominent producer of reality television. Now he’s moving from Omarosa to Moses. ...In what Mr. Burnett is calling the 'most important project I have ever undertaken,' he has made a deal with the History Channel to mount a 10-hour series based on the stories of the Bible....

     “'The Bible'will not be a documentary representation; it will be a scripted, acted drama.... Ms. Dubuc said researchers are already at work and theologians will be consulted.” See Who defines the Kingdom of God?

Revising the Bible. The History Channel To Air “The Bible” Mini-Series: "We have several versions of the story of Jesus Christ. Unlike the previous versions we have seen, this will venture through the entire bible."

Syrian rebels 'exclusively' America-hating jihadists: "While the Obama administration reportedly is moving toward recognizing the recently formed and supposedly 'inclusive' Syrian National Coalition as the legitimate representative of the Syrian people, recent reports from the embattled Syrian city of Aleppo make clear that Syrian rebel forces on the ground consist almost exclusively of jihadists, including self-avowed veterans of the al-Qaida-led insurgency against American forces in Iraq....

      "A video clip that recently emerged is said to show demonstrators in the region of Idlib, a rebel stronghold...

     "The chant leader continues, '...Our revolution is that of Islam, we want a Caliphate…/Don’t try, Obama, to steal our revolution/It is our religion that binds us and unites our force.'"

     These warriors, who despise Jews and Christians, have received guns and support from Obama. That's what the Bengazi gun-running agenda was about -- providing the rebels with ammunition!

Tri-faith vision becomes reality in Omaha: "The concept is to build a Jewish temple, Islamic center, and Episcopalian church all on one property and connected by walkways that meet at a tri-faith center meant to encourage education and understanding....  It's going to be so much more than just a place of prayer, which is a mosque.'" See Pluralism and The UN Declaration on the Role of Religion

Global Agenda.  The Danger of International Internet Regulation: "Regulating the Internet is something Americans have resisted here at home. Now that fight is going global. The United Nations—of course—has an agency that oversees international telecommunications. The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) was founded in 1865, when the telegraph was its main concern. Now it’s trying to expand its influence over modern-day communications. Starting on Monday, the 193 member states of the ITU will meet in Dubai to update the 1988 International Telecommunications Regulations." See George Orwell's 1984

Cultural Depravity.  New Islamist Constitution Brings Back Slavery to Egypt: "Egyptian slavery is as old as the pyramids and though it was banned in the 1870s under British pressure, it has never entirely gone away.... 'The first independent Muslim ruler of Egypt relied on black slaves and at his death is said to have left 24,000 (white) Mamaluks and 45,000 Nubian military slaves. In north Africa the source of black slaves from Nubia and Sudan were too convenient to ignore.'" See Moral and Spiritual Corruption

Farrakhan praises integration of Scientology into Nation of Islam Theology, says Whites should use it to...Avoid being ‘Devil Christians’ & ‘Satan Jews’: "Last week, we told you about the Minister Louis Farrakhan’s bizarre commentary about the 'fall of the United States.' In that same sermon... the fiery faith leader also issued praise for the Church of Scientology... a relationship that the Nation of Islam (NOI) has apparently been courting for years...

    NOI is a racist hate group that holds that white people are intrinsically, biologically evil — 'blue-eyed devils,' in the group’s parlance. Scientology’s followers, who include several well-known celebrities and other wealthy people, are overwhelmingly white and its founder reportedly was a racist who long defended South African apartheid."

Pastor Joel Osteen: Romney & Obama Are Christians & I see Mormons as ‘Brothers In Christ’: "...Osteen reiterated a position he has advanced before — that the top GOP contender is, in fact, a Christian....While Osteen did differentiate between Mormonism and 'traditional Christianity,' he maintains that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints adherents do, indeed, fall into the Christian realm."

Earth Day meets Easter: A Sign of Our Times? "Seeking a more popular image, a United Methodist Church in our neighborhood advertised an 'Interfaith Holiday Fair' on Palm Sunday a few years ago. Troubled, I stopped to take a look. The throbbing drum beat of the multicultural band greeted me in the crowded parking lot.

     "A table at the entrance displayed various books promoting the United Nations, peace education, and earth-centered religions. Beyond this propaganda for world unity, stretched a large hall with tables dedicated to the world's religious traditions. Judging by the crowd around its table, the Baha’i display seemed most popular...'"

Chrislam Starts To Spread In America : "Rick Warren, founder and pastor of Saddleback Community Church in Orange County California, addressed the convention of the Islamic Society of North America. Warren stated that Muslims and Christians must work together to combat stereotypes, promote peace and freedom, and solve global problems.

Saudi King Abdullah's Interfaith Center in Vienna to Unify the World's Religions? "King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has been planning for years to find a way to unite the world's major religions in an effort to help foster peace, and believes a new international organization to be housed in Vienna, Austria will help make that dream a reality....The building, to be called the 'King Abdullah Bin Abdulaziz International Center for Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue,' was conceived of by its namesake and mostly financed by the Saudi government. According to media reports the center will be composed of a governing body of 12 representatives, among that number will be representatives from Islam (one each Sunni and Shiite), Christians (one each Catholic, Anglican and Orthodox), a Buddhist, a Hindu and a Jewish representative.

Can't We All Share One Religion? "...compare this anti-Christian plan to the UN agenda: 'I, for one, believe that it is possible to reclaim our sense of community... without having to build upon a religious foundation.... To foster a sense of communal intimacy and to ensure that profound and dignified personal bonds can be forged, a tightly choreographed agenda of activities may be more effective than simpl -y leaving a group to mingle aimlessly on its own.... In a world beset by fundamentalists of both the believing and the secular variety, it must be possible to balance a rejection of religious faith with a selective reverence for religious rituals and concepts."...

      "What’s needed is an interfaith center in every city of the globe," said James Morton, former dean of the heretical Cathedral of St. John the Divine. 'The new interfaith centers will honor the rituals of every… faith tradition: Islam, Hinduism, Jain, Christian… and provide opportunity for sacred expression needed to bind the people of the planet into a viable, meaningful, and sustainable solidarity."

Pope says uniting Christianity requires conversion: "Ecumenism... is not an optional extra for Catholics but is 'the responsibility of the entire Church.'...

Lectio Divina: What it is, What it is Not, and Why It is a Dangerous Practice: "Lectio divina always includes taking a passage of Scripture... then working your way down until you have just a word or small phrase from the passage that you are meditating on (repeating over and over). Basically, you are coming up with a mantra-like word or phrase that has been extracted from a passage of Scripture, which, according to contemplatives, if repeated for several minutes will help you get rid of thoughts and distractions, so then, they say, you can hear the voice of God and feel His presence.... It is not traditional Bible study, not reading the Scriptures for understanding and edification, and not praying the Scriptures."

'Father' and 'Son' Ousted from the Trinity in New Bible Translations: "Wycliffe Bible Translators, Summer Institute of Linguistics (SIL) and Frontiers are under fire for 'producing Bibles that remove 'Father,' 'Son' and 'Son of God' because these terms are offensive to Muslims.' 'Concerned Christian missionaries, Bible translators, pastors, and national church leaders have come together with a public petition to stop these organizations.....

     "Wycliffe and SIL have produced...an Arabic Bible that uses an Arabic equivalent of 'Lord' instead of 'Father' and 'Messiah' instead of 'Son.' Second, Frontiers and SIL have produced Meaning of the Gospel of Christ , an Arabic translation which removes 'Father' in reference to God and replaces it with 'Allah,' and removes or redefines 'Son.'...

     "Matthew 28:19 reads, 'Cleanse them by water in the name of Allah, his Messiah and his Holy Spirit' instead of 'baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.'... Third, Frontiers and SIL have produced a new Turkish translation of the Gospel of Matthew that uses Turkish equivalents of 'guardian' for 'Father' and 'representative' or 'proxy' for 'Son.' ...'This translation is 'an all-American idea' with absolutely no respect for the 'sacredness' of Scripture..."

Pope Benedict's Interfaith Outreach: "In [Assisi, Italy] 25 years ago, Buddhists chanted to the accompaniment of gongs and drums, Zoroastrians tended a sacred fire, and an American Indian medicine man in traditional headdress smoked a peace pipe and called down the blessings of the 'Great Spirit.' ...The World Day of Prayer for Peace on Oct. 27, 1986, was of one of the most remarkable events in the...reign of Pope John Paul II. It epitomized that pontiff's historic opening to other faiths....

      "On Thursday, some 300 religious leaders returned to the city of St. Francis....Cardinal Ratzinger [a critic of the 1986 celebration] is now Pope Benedict.... Benedict's decision to include agnostics...was the choice most revealing of his priorities ....the day itself was rechristened one of 'reflection, dialogue and prayer.'...[They were] united not by faith but by the desire for peace and justice. ...As he told a European ambassador last week, social justice is based on norms accessible to all, derived not from divine revelation but from 'reason and nature'..."

How women are the driving force behind polygamous marriage: "...it is actually the women instigating polygamous marriage in Mormon communities. ...'In this community it's actually the women who dictate who they're going to marry....The Church of Latter Day Saints teaches that Jesus was a polygamist, and many people living in Mormon communities, which typically shun media attention, know life no other way. As Marlene said on Our America: 'I believe that this is the way God lives. And I believe that this is a superior way to live.'"

Wall Street Occupiers Urged to Target Churches: "Franky Schaeffer is the son of the late...Francis Schaeffer.... The son boasts he was himself a co-founder of the Religious Right. But he since has denounced Christianity as 'stupid.'... A blogger for The Huffington Post, young Schaeffer is now faulting religious conservatives for facilitating Wall Street greed. ...For Schaeffer, the next logical step is to demonstrate 'outside mega churches, Evangelical publishing houses, [and] religious organizations that lead the ‘moral’ crusades against women and gays and all the rest.'...

     "In 2008, he endorsed Barack Obama.... All the energy he once channeled into what he derides as 'fundamentalist' Christianity is now furiously focused against all the perceived representatives of his parents’ faith.... Schaeffer also faults these aspiring theocrats for supporting Israel...And he compares American 'fundamentalists' to Iran’s mullahs....Deranged by contempt for his parents’ faith, Schaeffer, at age 59, seems seduced by his own demons of paranoia and hatred."

Dalai Lama hands power to Harvard graduate Lobsang Sangay: "Lobsang Sangay, a 43-year-old Harvard scholar, took office yesterday as the Dalai Lama's political successor, vowing to free his homeland from Chinese 'colonialism'.

The Dalai Lama, Marxist? "Earlier this month, the Dalai Lama told a group of Chinese students at the University of Minnesota, 'I consider myself a Marxist... but not a Leninist.... Students in the audience looked puzzled. ...But those who have followed His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, know that he regularly trots out a Marxist banner.

     "...last year, he announced 'Still I am a Marxist' even while thanking his good friends in the Chinese Communist Party for bringing capitalist freedoms to their land.... Isn't he the 50-year exile whose fellow Tibetans suffered genocide, after some 20% of them died at the hands of Chinese forces or from starvation?

     "The Dalai Lama explained his youthful enthusiasm in a 1999 essay for Time, mentioning that he even considered joining the Communist Party... 'Marxism talked about an equal and just distribution of wealth. I was very much in favor of this.'"

The UN and One World Worship: "One would suppose the UN would be committed to cultural and religious diversity, eschewing the establishment of a global religion, given the fact it has representatives from countries around the world. But as it turns out, the UN has long had an interest in a global government and universal religion.

     "...the prominent globalist theologian Hans Kung...was commissioned by UNESCO in 1991 to create a 'Declaration of Global Ethic.' Kung obliged, further declaring in his opus Global Responsibility: In Search of a World Ethic that: ''traditional religions have an ethical obligation to cease to exist...there will be no room for religious diversity because if ethics is to function for the wellbeing of all, it must be indivisible.'

     "The Marxist concept of an international, unified brotherhood and new world order is now united with a pantheistic religion perfectly suited to redistributionist ends on the bases of core pantheistic beliefs....The divine Mother Earth's treasures are limited and distributed unequally. Therefore, her resources should be divided equally to all by a new UN priesthood....While all nations are guilty of sinning against Mother Earth, the chief sinner among nations is the wicked capitalist United States..."  See UNESCO's Intolerant "Tolerance"

     "When asked to describe in their own words what determines whether a person will attain eternal life, nearly three-in-ten (29%) say that a person's actions are most important.
