And His Mouth was the Mouth of aLion

Timothy Birdnow

Have I judged the new Pope too harshly? Perhaps. Here is an essay at Canada Free Press arguing Pope Leo may be quite different from what I think.

The author - David Martin - digs up quotes from the new Pontiff that suggest he may be far, far better than the previous occupant of the Cathedra of Peter.

A few tidbits:


Good points all but I still have grave doubts. Remember, Pope Francis replaced a whopping 80% of the cardinals before he shook off his mortal coil. And of the remnant who were over the hill, 117 of them were not allowed to vote thanks to a rule change made by Pope Paul VI in the seventies. So All most of the voting cardinals were Bergoglia men.

Mathematics is mathematics and human psychology is human psychology. Of course there is tne Holy Spirit, whom Catholics believe chooses the Pope but the Holy Spirit may well PUNISH the Church by allowing a bad one into power. Certainly the Church has been failing in her primary mission which is the salvation of souls, not the promotion of social identity politics, as it has become. The Church under Francis has become the Church of Laodecia, neither hot nor cold. Jesus said since it is so he would "spew it from my mouth". How better to spew it than by appointing a bad Pope?

And of course I have pointed to the speed of this conclave as evidence the decision had largely already been made. I find it hard to believe Prevost was chosen at random, or even by the Holy Spirit. There would have been great resistance to him had that been the case; there ALWAYS is great resistance to anyone whom God has annointed.

We also have some tweets and other things from the former Cardinal Prevost that suggest he's a Progressive and a man of the worldly mind. He has condemned our building a wall on the border, for instance, which is purely his opinion. I would remind him of Nehemiah, the Prophet, who has one of the Books of the Old Testament named after him and who was praised as for doing the work of God. Nehemiah's claim to fame was BUILDING A WALL around Jerusalem to protect the People. Yet Prevost condemns Trump for doing what Nehemiah did.

Don't let your guard down folks; give him a chance but see the fruits of his actions and words, not just the tenor of his speech.

The Catholic Church has a folklore belief that the False Prophet mentioned in the Book of Revelations would be a Pope, or rather an anti-Pope. Like the Antichrist he would probably appeal to all segments of the population for a time, then turn heretic aka hard left. He would give all his authority and power to the antichrist. One wonders about any new Pope these days, most especially after Fatima and the warnings made there.

Isaac Newton is known as the world's greatest physicist, and he was (I know many will argue Einstein, who was indeed great, but he was building on the shoulders of Newston) but he was first and foremost an Episcopal priest and his work in physics was merely a sideline to his real passion, which was the study of Bible prophecy. He had a project to determine the parousia, the second coming of Christ. he analyzed all the data in the Bible, timelines, dates, everything. He determined that it was all going down in 2060, just thirty five years from now. If he was off a couple of decades then this new Pope could well be the false prophet. Leo XIV is only 69, meaning he could be alive in twenty years if it happens in '46 rather than '60. (One suspects the numbe 666 entered into Newton's calculations in this instance.)

I don't know about all that,but I do know that the times most certainly fit the prophecies; Man is gambling with our own existence, playing with forces well beyond our capabilities. The transhumanists and their insane ideas of melding with computers and genetic manipulation, the rise of AI ("And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause to be killed as many as would not worship the Beast or the number of his name" Rev. 13:5), the increasing availability of nuclear weapons, the insanity of geoengineering to "stop" a largely fictitious climate crisis, weather control efforts, etc. Plus the complete deterioration of moral and social codes with "transgenderism" being promoted despite it's complete lack of scientific basis or spiritual value (Do not be deceived neither...nor homosexuals nor the effeminate..shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven 1Corinthians 6:9), the rise of homosexuality ("they have changed the incorruptible for the corruptible...so God gave them over to vile passions, for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another" 1Romans 25-27, We seem to be violatting all of these things. In fact the Apostle Paul pretty much described the modern human:


Sounds quite modern.

And all of this is what the Catholic Church is supposed to be fighting against. But instead it seems more interested in joining in the party. Oh, and getting those donations being made by the remnant that is left.

The primary purpose of the Church is the salvation of souls;all the rest is mere window dressing. Yes, physical charity and helping people is an honorable and worthwhile goal as Jesus did that too, but Jesus isn't so much remembered or venerated for saving people from poverty or illness or even raising them from the dead but for dying on the Cross so Man could be saved from Hell and join Him in heaven. Salvation is job #1, yet the Church no longer concerns itself with that. Go to any Catholic church and you will hear them drone on about how we need to be nicer to people and how to be better every day, like some sort of Norman vincent Peale homily. This is a complete dereliction of duty by the Church; they are supposed to save SOULS first and foremost. Now people are going to damnation simply because the Church isn't telling them not to.

I look at the new Pope and think about all this. Maybe I'ma a bit of a nerd, but I really do. I try to look at the times and compare them to previous times. Yes, we've always had a lot of the things we are seeing now, but we now have the TOOLS to turn these nickel and dime conceits into monsters. We know Covid, for instance, was created in a lab, and that out of sheer hubris by some in our ruling class. How much worse is waiting as a gift from Lucifer to rebellious humans? Where was the Church in calling Gain of Function research out? That was and remains a direct challenge to God Himself. But the Church is afraid since they took so much heat over Gallileo (and they weren't even wrong on that - they simply asked Gallileo to teach Copernicanism as a theory, not as fact. Gallileo was the Michael Mann of his day, promoting his opinion as established fact and attacking anyone, including his boss the Pope, who cautioned patience to resolve the matter satisfactorally.

So now the Church just stammers when some obviously dangerous and morally disreputable idea comes up. Can't be called "anti-science" can we? So the runway train continues to drag souls into Hell and the Church is more concerned with blessing gay unions or with giving women a greater roll, or some other thing that promotes the darkness in the end. The real issues go untouched.

Righteousness exalteth a nation but sin is a reproach thereunto, as the Good Book says. The Church is supposed to be repooving, not enabling.

So we have to wait and see what the new Pope will do. Let us all pray he is a rightous Pontiff and not the one who leads us all into darkness.

Just this Pope's name is ominous, as the quote at the beginning points out. Also:

1Peter 5:8:
