WARNING: Pope Francis In His New Year’s Angelus Commands Catholics To ‘Trust Themselves To The Gaze Of Mary’ Because She ‘Can Do All Things’, But She Can’t

Pope Francis opened his first Angelus of the New Year by urging the faithful to join in ‘placing ourselves under the maternal and loving gaze of Mary Most Holy’. The Pope explained that the day’s liturgy celebrates Mary ‘as Mother of God’.

There was a time in my life when I, as an unsaved Roman Catholic, would get on my knees and pray to the ‘virgin Mary’ as I was instructed to do, and ask her to take control of my life. But even as a lost person, that never felt quite right. The preeminence that the Roman Catholic Church gives to Mary in their worship of her, placing her above Jesus Christ, is not only idol worship, it can doom you to an eternal Hell. Then in 1991 I got saved, and with the Holy Spirit inside me, I could then see why this exaltation of Mary is so deadly.

“The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?” Jeremiah 7:18, 19 (KJB)

Pope Francis makes a number of statements that need to be rebuked from the word of God, and here now is that rebuke.

MARY THE ETERNAL VIRGIN: Nope, Mary was a virgin when she gave birth to Jesus according to the scriptures, but she had 6 children after Him. The apostle Mark tells us that “Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.” Mark 6:3 (KJB). Not only that, in the Old Testament, prophesying of the rejection of Jesus by His Jewish brethren we read “I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an alien unto my mother’s children. For the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached thee are fallen upon me.” Psalm 69:8,9 (KJB)
ENTRUST YOURSELF TO MARY: Whatever you do, don’t do that, if you entrust yourself to anyone other than Jesus Christ, you will be lost for all eternity. And ‘splitting the difference’ and entrusting yourself to Mary and Jesus won’t work either. Jesus alone is worthy of your trust, and trusting anyone or anything else is idolatry. “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” Matthew 10:37 (KJB). Nowhere in the bible is there any command, instruction or even an implication that Mary has anything at all to do with our salvation or sanctification. “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2 (KJB)
MARY OBTAINS PEACE: Pope Francis said that it was his prayer that Mary would “obtain for us from heaven the precious good of peace”, and that is impossible. There is only One Person that is capable of bringing peace to this world, and that is the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ. “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6 (KJB)
MARY CANNOT ‘DO ALL THINGS’: By this point, hopefully, you can see the ‘repeating pattern’ of how the Roman Catholic Church takes attributes of Jesus Christ, and gives them to Mary. Pope Francis said that Mary, in Heaven, can ‘do all things’ for us down here on the earth. How exactly is that happening unless Mary is somehow part of the decision-making process of God? News flash, she is not. On earth she answered no prayers, has nothing to say on Pentecost in the Upper Room, and no one ever asked her for advice on anything. I could give you literally a hundred different scriptures showing this to you, but this one should more than suffice. “But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:30,31 (KJB)

The Roman Catholic teaching on Mary is something that all Catholics should flee from, as fast as their feet will take them. Mary does not intercede for us to Jesus, her ‘gaze’ as far as your eternal soul goes is meaningless and worthless, and she will not ‘out in a good word’ for you to God based on the ridiculous premise that ‘no son can refuse a request from their mother’. The bible rebukes all such heresy, in both testaments, and you should too, if you believe the bible more than you believe a childless ‘father’ in a fish hat.

POPE FRANCIS DECLARES THAT MAY IS THE ‘MONTH OF MARY’, COMMANDS ALL CATHOLICS EVERYWHERE TO ‘ENTRUST THEMSELVES’ TO HER FOR PROTECTION

Pope at Angelus: Entrust yourselves to Mary for a united world

FROM VATICAN NEW: Pope Francis went on to explain that throughout our journey along the paths of time, “the reassuring and consoling gaze of the Blessed Virgin Mary” is one of encouragement as we entrust our anguish and torment to her, “who can do all things”. Mary looks at us with the same maternal tenderness with which she looked at her son Jesus, and this gaze is “an encouragement”, he said. This gaze, ensures that this time “given to us by the Lord” can be one that is spent “for our human and spiritual growth”, the Pope continued; a time “to iron out hatred and divisions”; “to feel that we are all more brothers and sisters”; “to build and not to destroy” and “to take care of one another and of creation”.

Concluding his New Year Angelus reflection, Pope Francis prayed that the Virgin Mary “obtain for us from heaven the precious good of peace” and expressed his hope that “peace will reign in people’s hearts and families; in places of work and leisure; in communities and nations”.

Finally the Pope wished all the faithful, and everyone throughout the world, “a happy and peaceful 2021: a year filled with confident expectation and hope”. READ MORE

Donald Trump Says He Is Doing Good Deeds In Order To Get To Heaven, Why Hasn’t Any One In The White House Faith Office Told Him How To Get Saved?

President Trump is surrounded by professing Christians at the White House, yet he has no idea of the biblical plan of salvation. Why is that?

President Donald Trump is surrounded by Christians on every level, he even created the White House Faith Office where he installed Paula White as his spiritual leader. He has professing Christians like Christian Nationalist Pete Hegseth around him every day, you would think that someone in his circle would have given him the gospel by this point. You would think that, but you’d be wrong. Donald Trump told Fox News the other day he is busy working his way to heaven by stopping wars around the world. Nope, that’s not it, Mr. President, not by a long shot.

“Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour; That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:5-7 (KJB)

Let me tell you what will not save your soul: baptism, the sacraments, confession to a priest, the Eucharist, mass, good works, good deeds, prayers of the saints, prayers to the saints, the Sinner’s Prayer, Mary, predestination, candles, amulets, the Universe, being raised in a church or attending a church service. Salvation exists in a payment made by Jesus Christ on the cross on your behalf. When you receive that payment by faith, His shed blood is applied to your account, and your sin debt satisfied before God. Asking Jesus into your heart does not ‘do the trick’, and neither does simply asking God to forgive you. You have a debt, and only a payment He approves of will be accepted. That payment is free, that payment is His shed blood, do you want it or not? That’s the price of admission to Heaven, Mr. President, your works don’t factor into the equation.

A Surreal Scene At The White House As The Combined Leaders Of Europe Were Lined Up In Chairs Like Schoolchildren As President Trump Lectured Them

The assembled leadership of Europe were sat down like schoolkids around the desk in the Oval Office while ‘teacher’ Trump lectured them on Russia and Ukraine

It was a wild scene in the Oval Office yesterday as the leaders of Italy, Germany, France, Finland, the president of the EU Commission, and the NATO secretary general were all put in chairs around the Resolute Desk while President Trump pontificated on how to proceed with ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. It was crazy, just look at the disdain on all their faces, like something out of an end times movie. That’s because we are living in an end times movie, and that’s the memo.

“For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.” Isaiah 29:10 (KJB)

On the Podcast yesterday, I talked about why Putin only wants to deal with Trump, and that’s because Putin knows that, in the end, he gets just about everything he wants from Trump that he would never get from talks with anyone else. All Trump wants is the Nobel Peace Prize for ending the war regardless of how the war is actually brought to an end. Trump becomes Putin’s proxy to deliver and dictate the terms to Zelensky and Ukraine. Fun fact, Putin will never, in a million years, agree to a ‘peace deal’ that is not highly slanted in his favor including acquiring parcels of Ukrainian territory he needs to rebuild the old Soviet Union. Don’t get me wrong, I hate war and would love to see peace in Ukraine, but that’s not going to happen because “and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.”

European leaders discuss Ukraine security guarantees after Trump talks

FROM THE GUARDIAN UK: Monday’s White House meeting shed little light on Putin’s territorial terms. The Russian leader has demanded Ukraine’s withdrawal from Donetsk and Luhansk, but Zelenskyy has set a firm red line against ceding land beyond the present occupation or legitimising Moscow’s control.

Some observers say that for all the diplomatic manoeuvring, there has been little real movement towards ending the war. “Nothing had happened in Anchorage on Aug. 15th. Nothing happened yesterday in Washington DC,” Gérard Araud, the former French ambassador to the US, wrote on X. “Putin, Zelenskyy and the European leaders were all relieved: they had avoided Trump taking unwelcome decisions. It was the triumph of empty vagueness and meaningless commitments.” READ MORE

President Trump whispered ‘I’ll help you’ to Vladimir Putin and then gave him Ukraine at the Summit in Alaska paving the way for reemergence of the Soviet Union

With Emmanuel Macron leading the way, European leaders rush to Washington DC to plead Zelensky’s cause after Trump hands Ukraine to Putin on a silver platter at Summit in Alaska. As we have said before, it’s a strange thing to watch ‘peace talks’ with the aggressor nation that leave out the victim nation that was attacked. It’s quite similiar to the deal made during WWII between Germany and Russia to decide the fate of Poland. It feels like we’ve seen this movie before, and that’s the memo.

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9 (KJB)

On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, students of history know exactly what Vladimir Putin is up to, couldn’t be any more clear. Putin is working to restore the old Soviet Union and lay the groundwork for WWIII. US President Donald Trump is way out of his league here, as was evidenced at last week’s Ukraine Summit in Alaska. Remember back in 2012 when former president Barack Obama whispered to Russian president Dmitry Medvedev that ‘I’ll have more flexibility after the election’, and how outraged we all were by that seeming capitulation? Last week, President Trump whispered to Vladimir Putin ‘I’ll help you’ and then gave him Ukraine. New boss same as the old boss. Now the heads of Europe led by Macron are in Washington DC to beg and plead for Zelensky and Ukraine, how’s that going to go? On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, we show you.

I already subscribed.” In that short time we spoke, I experienced from you…a total stranger…peace, joy, kindness, gentleness, compassion, and love.
