Hello, and thank you for listening to the testing the spirits podcast.
It's official.
The Roman Catholic Church is now blessing same -sex Unions, here's a headline from the
dissenter Pope Francis follows the Anglican Church and approves of blessings for
homosexual couples.
CNN reports this Pope Francis formerly and officially has now permitted Roman
Catholic priests to bless Same -sex couples on Monday and a significant shift in the
church's approach to LGBTQIA plus people the latest ruling
Fleshes out the opening the Pope made to blessing same -sex couples last October and marks a shift
away from the 2021 ruling from the Vatican Doctrine Office which barred any
blessings saying that God cannot bless sin, so the Catholic Church.
Clearly the Pope has overruled that and now they are blessing same -sex
Unions, so the Catholic Church, which claims to be infallible They have clearly changed their position
to better fit in with the world system.
Now what you're gonna hear in this video.
It may shock you.
This video should be a real eye -opener if your eyes haven't been opened to all this by
now.
If this doesn't do it, I don't know what would.
So we knew this was coming remember years ago when the Pope was interviewed on that airplane and they asked him
about Homosexuality and he's like, well, you know who am I to judge?
And of course the Pope passes judgment on all sorts of things, you know capitalism, you know
people who?
Mistreat the environment he condemned Donald Trump and praised Joe Biden as a faithful
Catholic.
So the Pope is Perfectly willing to give his opinion and pass judgment and what's right and
what's wrong.
And when you see the things that the Pope, you know says and the things he supports.
It's pretty clear what's going on?
It's really just like the book of Revelation says in chapter 17 the harlot of
Babylon the false religious system.
They're committing fornication with the kings of the earth I mean they're in bed with the political rulers and they are advancing the
narrative they are Helping to push through the agenda to help usher in the New World
Order.
So now the Pope is blessing same -sex.
Unions.
This just recently happened within the Anglican Church.
That is the Church of England now that the Queen is gone Prince Charles now King Charles.
He is just ultra progressive he and his church are pushing this in England.
So it's happening everywhere England the United States and now Rome.
So if this doesn't prove the Catholic Church is apostate like I don't know what would.
Now I'm going to show you some things speaking of apostasy just to kind of prove.
This is nothing new.
Actually, the Pope is sort of catching up to a lot of local Congregations where the Catholic Church has
been ultra progressive.
I'm you know, there are those.
Conservative.
Bishops and priests and churches out there, but the church as a whole is just going full -blown.
Progressive in our local area case in point in Our local
area we have what is called the interfaith Council of Franklin County and I have nothing against these people personally.
But you know it is what it is.
These are all the universalist churches the rainbow churches that deny the deity of Christ.
They deny the authority of Scripture they celebrate gay marriage, you know and all the rest.
You see here on their website all of the religious symbols of false religions up there
in the corner Buddhism Hinduism and Front and center on their website is
the statement that says the earth is sacred.
Well, how is the earth sacred?
Well because these people are pagans they worship Mother Earth they deny the true
gospel and Instead they worship and serve the creature rather than the Creator as
Paul said in Romans 1 they worship Mother Earth.
They celebrate homosexuality again.
Romans 1 talks about this and Here on their website They have a
statement about their interfaith services, so basically Muslims and
Hindus and Jews and Buddhists everyone can all get together with the apostate
Christians and By the way one local Pentecostal minister.
I know he actually sat on this Council and he said that he only quit after
they started to allow Wiccans to join.
So I guess having a witch on the council was a step too far for him.
But I don't see any Wiccans represented here.
Maybe the Wiccans you know dissolve not a lot of people that want to admit their witches although here in Massachusetts
we do have a few but Here's the point of why I'm showing you this they have a list of
supporting congregations.
Look at the list.
So I'm showing you this because notice it's marked in black.
The local Catholic churches are all fully supportive of this openly
progressive organization that celebrates LGBT so this interfaith
council.
That.
Again, literally there some of these ministers and their churches their congregations they they march in pride parades and
yet the local Catholic churches are happy to Yoke up with them and why
not their leader is now declaring that Catholic priests should be blessing
same -sex.
Unions.
And did you notice on that list of supporting congregations you have the First Church of Christ?
Scientist, so that's the cult also known as Christian science.
So even the cults are accepted.
But again, why not once you abandon biblical truth, you might as well join all religions
together.
And that's exactly what the Catholic Church wants to do.
That's exactly what the Pope is Looking for to join all religions together under
his umbrella and in the end times.
That's going to be the formulation of the one world Religion.
We're gonna have a one world government one world economic system with the mark of the beast and the one world
religion my friends.
This is how persecution is going to come in the future.
In the end times all the false churches all religions are going to come together as one
likely under the leadership of a Pope and They will all support the
same unbiblical anti -biblical causes.
But those.
Churches that remain faithful to God and his word, you know the minority of us who Still believe
the truths of God's Word, you know the remnant we will be called what haters
will be called all sorts of will be maligned.
Why.
Because we refuse to go along with this and This is what the world system is
Already doing and this is happening right now to a certain degree.
I mean if you work for a corporation and your HR department finds out that you're against gay
pride.
You're not only not going to be promoted.
You'll probably be fired if you speak out about your beliefs.
Of course, everyone else can speak about their beliefs.
They can wave flags post banners.
Say and do whatever they want, but if you dare speak up about Jesus, I mean you're in big trouble.
Now they'll talk about the false Jesus who just affirms everything but if you speak about what the Bible
actually says.
You're in big trouble.
So take that and multiply it by a thousand and that's what the end times are going to be like and
I firmly believe the book of Revelation indicates that the Pope and The Catholic
Church will be instrumental in bringing all this.
About so before we close we're going to look at the book of Revelation chapter 17 the Bible
prophesied this and By the way, the view I'm about to express
this was the historic view of the Protestant Reformation.
The Reformers believed that the Antichrist was the Pope or the Pope at
the very least was an antichrist.
You know lowercase a there will be that final antichrist, but the Pope is you know, the papacy is the seat of
antichrist.
So who believed this.
Martin Luther John Calvin John Knox later on John Wesley Charles Haddon Spurgeon in more
recent times.
Men like John MacArthur, they are all on record saying similar things about the papacy being the seat
of antichrist so the Pope in the end times I'm convinced the Pope will either be the antichrist or
at the very least the false prophet as Revelation 13 speaks about the beast in the false
prophet and the apostate Roman Church that false church
is referred to in Revelation 17 as the Harlot or the whore of Babylon.
So here's what you have to understand about the book of Revelation.
God's people are depicted as.
And you've probably heard this before the Bride of Christ.
Well the harlot that's the false church the true church is the Bride of Christ the false church is.
Well, let's read Revelation 17 verse 1 it's represented by this woman the harlot.
Revelation 17 1 says then one of these seven angels who have the seven bowls
came and talked with me saying Saying to John come and I will show you the judgment of
the great harlot who sits on many waters.
So this harlot again represents the false church under the control of
the Antichrist.
So this false church Sits on many waters.
In other words, she is worldwide.
She is Universal, of course, that's what Catholic means verse 2 with whom
the kings of the earth committed fornication and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine
of her fornication as Just talked about a moment ago.
The Roman Catholic Church is in bed.
The Pope is in bed with the kings of the earth verse 3.
So he carried me this this angel carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness and
I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemies have
having seven heads and ten horns and The woman was arrayed and
purple in Scarlet.
This false church was adorned revelation says with gold and precious stones and
pearls having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations in the
filthiness of her fornication and On her forehead a name was written
mystery Babylon the great the mother of harlots and of the abominations
of the earth and I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the Saints and with the blood of the
martyrs of Jesus.
And when I saw her I marveled with great amazement.
We had a episode a few weeks ago where we talked about Haley's Bible handbook and how the Estimate
was that the Catholic Church has killed over 50 million Christians throughout her
history.
Well, that's what's going to happen in the end times.
Under the Antichrist, they are going to persecute again the people of God.
Of course many of the Protestants and many Anabaptists were killed During the Reformation.
It's the same thing that keeps happening.
And if they had the power to do it today, they'd do it today.
But they don't currently have that power, but they're working on it verse 7.
But the angel said to me that is the Apostle John.
Why did you marvel?
I will tell you the mystery of the woman and the beast that carries her which has the seven heads and the
ten horns.
So do you want to know who this woman is?
Do you want to know who this false church is?
First nine tells us here is the mind which has wisdom.
The seven heads are the seven mountains on Which the woman sits?
So this false church is Seated on seven mountains.
And of course Rome historically has been known as the city on seven hills.
Now that may be troubling for some people who have never Understood what's going on and what's going
to happen in the future and how the book of Revelation?
Tells us ahead of time about these things, but be encouraged.
Information is good information is power.
It should prepare us.
You said well, I don't know.
That's pretty Distressing.
Well be encouraged because if you've ever read the book of Revelation Hopefully you've read it through to the end.
We know how this ends in the end.
God wins the Antichrist the the false church is destroyed in the Antichrist.
The beast and the false prophet along with the devil are cast into the lake of fire in the end
God wins.
And.
God's people will rule and reign with Jesus Christ for a thousand years
and then just straight on through Eternity, so that's the good news in
the end.
God's people win, but until then.
Please pray for the salvation of the lost.
The people who still have not had their eyes Opened they think all this is just so.
This is fine.
It's normal.
It's fine.
It's good or some would even celebrate it.
It's it's not it's not good.
It's not fine.
It's not normal.
So pray for these people pray for their salvation pray that people would repent
and see the error of their ways.
Before it's too late.
Thanks for listening and until next time.
May the Lord be with you and have a great day.
