perhaps St Francis Xavier who was instrumental in founding the Jesuit order....
Notre Dame is not Jesuit. Marquette, Georgetown, Saint Louis, Xavier, Gonzaga, Fordam, Creighton, Boston College are. Here's a complete list.
whose references??....protestant, Catholic????Jesus referred DIRECTLY to Peter that he (Peter) was indeed the "rock"
Didn’t need to bite my head off, jeez!
Thanks for the info, could do without the snark.
Agreed.
Cardinal Dolan told reporters the surprising story of how the newly elected pope decided to take the bus back to the hotel Wednesday with the rest of the cardinals instead of riding in the Holy Fathers car.
So we take the buses over and the cardinals kind of wait outside to greet the new Holy Father as he comes back to Doma Santa Marta and as the last bus pulls up, guess who gets off the bus? Pope Francis, Dolan said. So I guess he told the driver, Thats OK. Ill just go with the guys on the bus.
And evangelizing the far east!
Since when is Notre Dame run by Jesuits?
Ever hear of the Holy Cross priests?
I said, "Notre Dame is not Jesuit."
I was correcting the poster that said ND was Jesuit.
Don't know why you are confused.
Peter means Rock. Just amazing how people just try to take it away. It is getting ideas from authors outside the bible instead of from the bible like some claim. The text is all there when we know without a doubt Peter’s name is rock. It is ludicrous to think otherwise.
“All of the Biblical references say that Yeshua is the Rock.”
Nope. Wrong. Again.
Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem;
Creatorem caeli et terrae.
Et in Jesum Christum,
Filium eius unicum, Dominum nostrum;
qui conceptus est
de Spiritu Sancto,
natus ex Maria virgine;
passus sub Pontio Pilato,
crucifixus, mortuus, et sepultus;
descendit ad inferos;
tertia die resurrexit a mortuis;
ascendit ad caelos;
sedet ad dexteram Dei Patris omnipotentis;
inde venturus est
iudicare vivos et mortuos.
Credo in Spiritum Sanctum;
sanctam ecclesiam catholicam;
sanctorum communionem;
remissionem peccatorum;
carnis resurrectionem;
vitam aeternam. Amen.
In English:
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ,
his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived
by the power of the Holy Spirit,
and born of the Virgin Mary,
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
He descended into hell.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
he will come again
to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy Catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen
I didn’t see the other post. Sorry.
I think they always take a new name. The new Pope chooses his name, apparently; Pope Francis decided to take the name of St. Francis of Assisi—probably my favorite Saint, as he loved animals.
“ere not Catholic but watched the revelation and were EXTREMELY moved. Awesome! Bless him and all Christianity.”

WOW!
“Francis Xavier, not Francis of Assisi. Different religious orders.”
__________________________________________
Ah, thank you for the clarification. The people on the news assumed it was Francis of Assisi, but then they mentioned the Jesuits.
I’ll have to do some studying. :)

This man seems to be incredibly humble.
Although I am not Catholic, when I watched him today, I was very impressed.
Rofl!!!
Sandra Fluke: “Lighten up, Francis!”
I am catholic and had never heard of him. For some reason I was very touched by his appearance today. A great first impression. Then I went to twitter and the lefties were howling. That’s when I knew for sure the Spirit was moving today.
