The growth of the global south Church I have been talking about for a long time. We may having a new Pope from that part of the world.

We could very well be seeing missionaries from the global south heading west to bring the good news of the Gospel.

Know God, no fear. No God, know fear.

**In the United States as well, where changing from one religion to another is very common, Catholics have undergone an erosion over the past century. Those who have left the Church turn out to be more numerous than those who have entered.**

And we are calling them back. People who are searching for the truth WILL come back!

Hopefully the next Pope will spend decades “auditing” the church against heterodoxy and heresy.

First it must be discerned where error lies, and whether that error is innocent, and needing instruction, or more harmful, and carried out with ill intent.

Likewise error must be discerned as arising from within, or without the church. As such external forces do exist, as physical, moral and spiritual threats, the clergy and laity need to be made aware of them, lest they fall into their machinations.

>> It will be a Church with two thirds of the faithful in the southern hemisphere. <<

Overstated. What he means is in the southern world (i.e., Latin America, Africa, South Asia, Oceania.) Much of the “southern world,” however, is north of the equator, including most of Africa, three out of four of the most populous nations of Latin America (and part of the fourth), and South Asia, including the Philippines.
