SLIDE:
Pope Francis says that those who are constantly attacking the church are linked to the devil.
Francis on Wednesday told pilgrims from southern Italy that the church’s “defects” must be denounced in order to correct them.
But he said that those who do so without love and spend their lives “accusing” the church are either the devil’s friends or relatives.
Sadly, we Catholics are in for a rough ride. But I still believe in the teachings and that the Holy Spirit is guiding the Church. Our leaders have let us down and have done immense harm. I read a very sad article about Church leaders abusing little deaf children. They were mute and couldn’t tell. Horrific.
I hope the revelations will cause a deep cleansing and purge of bad priests. We will be a leaner, cleaner, and meaner (less politically correct) Church. Faithfulness in this sad time will be a form of martyrdom.
I just want to be with my children and grandchildren in Heaven.
