Pope Francis: "There Is No Hell"

[Vern Humphrey]

There is a Devil. He tried to tempt The Man.

There was a tempter. He tried to tempt the Man.

But Christianity has only one God. It is Manichaeism that teaches there is a Devil -- an evil god -- who contends against God. This is sometimes called "Persian Dualism."

Oh for sure the Pope is going to have some explaining to do when he meets God. I mean, wanting to see fewer people get shot, what on earth was the Pope thinking. Happy Good Friday, y'all.

Lovely how you pick and choose. But then, you ARE a liberal. 'Nuff said. :-)

Don't believe in God. Don't believe in Hell. Fine. Just don't be wrong!!!

Everyone has an eternity...the question before us is where will you spend yours?

The chances of one man fulfilling the 8 promises about the Mesiah are 1 in 10 to the 17th power; that's 1:100,000,000,000,000,000

"Get thee behind Me, Satan!" The Man said. I heard a radio program years ago about Solzhenitsyn's The Gulag Archipelago which said "The Gulag Archipelago" is not so much a time and place as it is a state of mind."
And technically speaking for those of us in the Reformed Tradition what the Bishop of Rome says is not binding or authoritative.

The Man? I thought that was the cops. God,I hate Jesus Freaks.

God is a Holy, and Just God... Hell is a place for people who died or who will die in unbelief, not believing what Jesus Christ did for their sins. Sin can not go unpunished. Being nice to people, paying your taxes, loving your wife and kids, honoring your parents, shoveling you neighbors steps, walking an old person across the street, saving someones life...doesn't pardon your sins from God. Only the cross of Jesus Christ does that, but you have to believe that He was nailed to that cross and bled and died, and has risen from the dead. The Pope is a sinner just like you and me. He's probably gonna die without Christ. What are you prepared to do, with Jesus Christ? Accept Him or deny Him?

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God...

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Thanks.

Sounds like someone isn't screening candidates very well to become pope's. They are there to lead the Catholics not to destroy their faiths along with everyone else's. Not much of a pope. Not much of a human being.

And we're officially through the looking glass now, where Trump has an express track to heaven and the pope, who in general is a much meeker fellow and has dedicated his life to helping the poor, has to sweat it out in the afterlife, hoping to catch a break.

And so… do all you Christians believe in what a 93 year old atheist, Socialist, and sexual pervert says when he translates what the Pope said? There is only one man here on earth (Scalfari) that heard whatever the Pope said. Was he speaking English, a Spanish dialect, Italian, or Latin? You don't know do you?

The Vatican says the Pope's comments were:

“the fruit of [Scalfari’s] reconstruction” and not “a faithful transcription of the Holy Father’s words.” Also, in case you still have questions, “no quotation of the article should be considered as a faithful transcription of the words of the Holy Father.”

But since you are obviously much closer to God than Pope Francis, you can join the "I'm holier than you," and the "I know everything crowd."

at the Cross I first saw the light and the burden of my heart rolled away, it was there by faith I received my sight and now I am happy all the day.

I don't know everything, And I am as filthy rags.... but the Cross I have come to terms with.

Please answer this question: Since you know absolutely zero about what the Pope said or didn't say, how do you know that he is "probably going to die without Christ."

The answer is you don't know and by claiming you do, you are't being faithful to your religion, your knowledge, or yourself. IMHO, you are a dangerous man.
