I am liking Pope Francis

[steaver]

Brothers and Sisters lest we forget!

6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

6:15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Noticed what I highlighted in bold that is where our battle is and not with each other... EWF... Lutherans?... Brother Glen

So should we view the pope as the manifestation of this spiritual wickedness in high places? I don't see EWF as anything wicked from high places....nor Catholics and Lutherans or any other denomination in general. I judge individually by what I hear and see. I do hear the pope's words and I do hear spiritual wickedness even though it is mixed with doing good deeds....

Even when the Pope does try to reform it comes back to bite him. There is too much corruption from within. Since the Catechism itself cannot be changed the false message that leads to hell and not to heaven will never change.
But at least he is trying to make some reform from within.

The Vatican accuses two former commission members, 54-year-old Monsignor Lucio Angel Vallejo Balda and Italian laywoman Francesca Chaouqui, 33, of leaking the documents.

Over the weekend, the gendarmerie placed the pair under arrest. Ms Chaouqui has protested her innocence - "I am not a crow," she protested on Twitter.

It is an interesting article.
