Of course he does. He's one of the foremost to expose the heresy Catholicism. They hate anyone who exposed the heresy and apostasy of Catholicism with the truth from scripture. It's like their eyes turn red.
Pope Frank the Apostate.
I didn’t see that come up in Malachi’s prophecy. If you anagram that around, it probably spells “Peter the Roman”.
They seem to be getting a ‘burning in the bosom’, eh? Maybe, there is a small whisper they just cannot seem to get out of their ear. Would do well to listen quietly to that still, small voice.
LOL, oh, so now it is a burning in the bosom. For s second there, I thought I was in Temple Square in Salt Lake City. 😂😇😎
I know it is afternoon there, but, it is almost 3 AM here, so I am having trouble staying awake. 🇵🇭😱
alledgedly...
I tried BOTH Pope Frank the Apostate
and
Pope Frank the Apostate
Nary a one of the online anagram solvers came up with ANYTHING!
I find that VERY hard to believe!
Try Francis The Talking Mule
You still seem desperate - and three days late.
On the contrary...I never made an unsubstantiated claim. Those are the rules around here. Make a claim and then cite it.
You failed to do so.
Obolo does stuff like that.
“God blessed sex. The Catholic church vilifies it...”
Completely, 100% wrong statement about the Church’s teaching.
See CCC 1616 which sets forth (in part) the Church’s actual teaching on marriage based on:
Ephesians 5:25-26,31-32; Genesis 2:24.
For non catholics to actually understand what the Church’s full teaching about marriage consists of - the entire Article 7 “The Sacrament of Matrimony” would be worthwhile. Also be sure to look up all of the scripture proofs that the teachings are based upon.
God did indeed bless sex and the sacrament of matrimony is the manifestation of this blessing. (man and woman only, of course!)
The Church also teaches that some are called to chastity, a vocation that is actually superior to marriage (Isaiah 56-3, Rev.14,4; Matthew 19:10-12 and more). This is where Martin Luther went off the rails, breaking his own vow of chastity.
Our Lord Himself was chaste.
“...Of course he does...”
The pope and the entire Catholic Church live rent free in some people’s heads. Some churches are set up specificially to (attempt to) discredit the teachings of the Church.
The Catholic Chruch and her teachings live rent free in the heads of entire church so called -denominations because that is their sole raison d’etre.
“On the contrary...I never made an unsubstantiated claim.”
Except for that one right there.
Revelation 2:6 'Yet this you do have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
Nicoaitans = those who would set up a hierarchy of leaders who lord over the lay people.
God commended them for hating churches like the Catholic Church.
Revelation 2:6 ... the deeds of the Nicolaites ...
The Nicolaites weren’t Catholic.
In ancient antiquity there was no such sect as the “Nicolaitan”. Outside of the Apocalypse, biblical and secular history has no reference to such a group. They are a mystical “type” found in the Apocalypse alone and they are a reference to the people who follow Balaam; Apocalypse 2:14 and 15
Balaam is the anti Christ - Destroyer of the People (of God). The Nicolaites and the Balaamites were one and the same and not a true group but were everyone who broke the covenant and worshipped false gods, and didn’t follow the commandments.
The Nicolaitans/Balaamites are not sects that bore those names in early times; they are the followers of the sin of Balaam in the Old Testament; the sins of fornication and the flesh. Numbers 25: 1-3
Actual Nicolaitans did come later (2nd century) They were antinomian gnostics not Catholics. (Clement of Aledandria and Tertullian) These later “Nicolaitans” took their name from the Apocalypse, not the other way around. They were libertines who felt free to sin because they were ‘saved”.
