Isn’t the Pope supposed to be God incarnate? If so, why hasn’t he brought peace to the Middle East?

There WILL be peace and victory in the Holy Land and on Earth. God's not in the business of losing.

That’s an interesting idea, since God plainly will not allow any “two-state solution” to be permanent.

It was set up that way before Joshua crossed the Jordan. IMO, it is obvious even in the correlations between the blessings upon the descendants of Abraham and Ishmael.

I agree that it will take a literal miracle to bring peace to that region.

Pope tells presidents only God can bring peace to Holy Land

Interesting. I thought the Pope was supposed to be familiar with Scripture.

Obama and his worshipers think Obama is God.

There will be no peace until after the apocalypse. I would assume the Pope has read Revelation.

Looks like the Pope never heard of free will. There will be peace only when all those involved freely choose to stop killing, and to work for peace.
Blaming the devil doesn’t solve the problem. It’s humans acting out of their free will who choose evil over good.

"More than once we have been on the verge of peace, but the evil one, employing a variety of means, has succeeded in blocking it,” the pope said June 8 at an evening ceremony in the Vatican Gardens. “That is why we are here, because we know and we believe that we need the help of God.”

God bless Pope Francis!

Just watched the CNN segment on the prayer session. I think this was a unique and special event. The fact that major representatives of the Jewish, Catholic/Orthodox and Muslim religions gathered together in prayer was pretty amazing. In this instance I will defer to God’s response to Jonah’s anger over calling Nineveh to repent. I would hope we don’t worry more about the gourd than the opportunity for God to show us His Mercy (yet again). Just sayin....
