The pope's sign of the time
One pope resign and another one is elected.
Pope’s sign of the time
May God guide and
help us with these religious writings?
Welcome to our hub
(79), Pope’s sign of the time
Dear readers please
note; this article is a religious article as well, but it is not part of,
Reconciliation of the universe, as we might have said enough about our
religious theory; however it is still part of our religious writings, therefore
it needs to be here: perhaps this is the first religious article that would
belong to another group and we have to wait and see what happens next.
Now, this article
was first opened when Pope Benedict resigned, but we would also like to add
some other religious event as they might happen in the future, but let us start
from this pope resignation, at the time when it happened.
What is happening
today must be the sign of the time, because even the Pope has resigned; this
event makes us believe that it could be the beginning of many religious changes
that are going to take place in the near future, and it might be going to be
just the way that we have predicted when we started to write our religious
writings, where we said that religious things will have to change soon or later
and religions need to be modified to meet the need of the people of the future.
So let us see what this may mean in a religious way, because before today most
Catholics could never believe that one day the Pope would resign, but this one
did.
We as Catholics had
the impression that only when a pope dies another pope would be elected giving
the impression that the pope was indeed elected from the spiritual force of
God, and therefore would never spiritually fail even when he would become
physically frail, because the spirit of God above would still guide him. But
this pope Benedict 16th seems to believe otherwise and because his
body has become frail he thinks that it would be better for him to resign and
let somebody else take over the Roman Catholic Church leadership.
Therefore today all
the believers and followers of the Roman Catholic Church are asking; Has the
pope done the right thing by resigning his leadership of the Roman Catholic
Church? And also the rest of the world would like to ask that? Well we just
have to wait and see and it will take a long time to see the outcome, but
anyhow let us just first of all look at what the media is reporting, and here
are a few links to follow:
Here we need to say
that we have posted you these links so that you could follow them the easy way,
of course we are also going to have a say later on as the following religious
events continue to happen, but now let us talk about the pope and his final
message.
-------------------------------------
The Pope resigns
The Pope has
resigned; it must be the sign of the time
This resignation of
Pope Benedict has been a real shock to all Roman Catholic believers and it is
going to take a while for the Catholic people to accept his resignation and the
consequences that are going to follow from it. It is obvious that there will be
lots of consequences and there could be some changes, in order to adjust to
these new ways of doing religious things; you see, we are being told that this
has never happened before for at least the last six centuries, so the public
needs to adjust to this new ways to say the least.
First of all we
wonder how they are going to elect a new pope while the old pope is still
around, and what would the religious public say when they are going to talk
about the pope, should there be a way to tell whether they are talking about
the old pope or the new pope, you see even by just talking one can have a
problem, just because for the people is a new way and they are not used to have
two popes, so we are all waiting and watching what is going to happen next.
At this very moment
of time we are all shocked about the happening itself, just because nobody was
really waiting for this to happen, so we are all trying to wait and see what is
going to happen next, what else can we do, and if people are all shocked it is
only natural.
----------------------------------------
Who is going to be Pope now?
Who is going to be
Pope now people are already asking? But they already know that this time around
to choose a new pope it's going to be a great dilemma, because whoever is going
to be the new Pope needs to solve many accumulated religious problems; for a
start the new pope is going to need the courage to discipline anyone that does
not behave 100 % according to their canonical laws. Therefore whoever steps
outside these accepted laws must be sacked on the spot from holding any
ceremonial religious events, and if it is necessary ban them from doing
anything at all religiously.
As we all know
lately there is not a day that paedophilia in the Roman Catholic Church is not
mentioned in the media, now this paedophilia problem is only one of their
problems and there are many others, so what the new pontiff will do is very
important for survival of the present system of the Roman Catholic Church
itself; so, who is going to be willing to accept this great challenge is hard
to say, but let us hope that there are a few cardinals capable and willing to
solve these problems? We hope that at least some of them would be able to do
that? Otherwise religion might have to change a lot more that it would be
necessary.
Of course there
will be a lot more to say, and we are going to write more as soon as we have
time, and if something important happens then we will have to take the time to
write all about it.
------------------------------------
New pope has been elected
As an Italian born
it is/was only natural that I wished the future pope would be Italian, you see,
everybody wishes the pope is from their own country, but then again there are a
lot of things to take into consideration, which sometimes dictate that that
cannot be done, so we have to accept what is best for all the Christian
community, and that is just what the cardinals have done, by electing a pope
from south America, which has a lot of Catholics people following this
religion.
Here are some links
to learn about the new pope and other religious issues.
This new pope has
got a lot to do to restore faith to those people that have lost faith in the
Roman Catholic Church.
May God help Pope
Francis to do the right things?
-------------------------------------
Our first impression
Everyone of us has
his own ways of looking at these religious things, and what I think it would be
right to do may seem wrong to somebody else, but this would be only my personal
impression, so let me say how I see the new pope today.
Looking at what is
happening it seems to me that there is a missing link here with this new pope,
there are no new ways to look forward; because he seems to look at the past and
not the future, so, I believe that he wants to go backward to the ways the
church was run before, let us hope that he does not take us back too far to the
Dark Age? But then again I have to admit that my religious views are radical
and not many people are game enough to associate themselves with my religious
ideas.
Here I need to say
that in a way this pope has stopped my hope of an early change in religious
circles, I was hoping that he would have had a new vision and would take the
first step toward a new view of religious beliefs, even if it was a very small
step, nothing like what I have written in my religious writings of
reconciliation of the universe, where God is the central life force that guides
the entire universe at the central point where all existing religions would and
could link, so that no more frictions could exist in religious circles and also
because of this change other necessary changes could have followed easily. Well
I suppose the time is not yet arrived for these changes and I was hoping for
too much happenings that would go my way. Perhaps the changes that I view in my
mind eyes will take a very long time to come true, but I believe that they will
be accepted one day, if or when everything else fails.
Anyhow let us leave
this article open to add other important religious happenings, since we would
like to know them, as soon as they happen if possible?
------------------------------------------
Pope Francis ways
This pope has been
there just a bit more than one year and he sure enough has his own ways of
doing religious things, also his personal things seem to be different from his
predecessors, so he does many thing his own way. You see, Pope Francis while he
seems to drive the church back to the past, at the same time he pushes forward
some religious rites faster than it has ever done before, his latest move is
the canonization in Rome of two popes. These two popes are still well known
from the living religious people, so to some of us who believed that to become
a Saint would be only possible when just about everybody of that generation has
died; now we are asking ourselves if this canonization is premature. But anyhow
now has been done, so let us look at the religious service as it happened;
under here is a link about this religious ceremony:
Here under are some
of the details, as reported from the press and I quote;
Pope John XXIII (25 November 1881 – 3 June 1963) and
Pope John Paul II (18 May 1920 – 2
April 2005) reigned as popes of the Roman Catholic Church and the sovereigns
of Vatican City (respectively from 1958 to 1963 and 1978
to 2005). Their canonizations were held on 27 April 2014.[1] The decision to canonize was made
official by Pope Francis on 5 July 2013 following the
recognition of a miracle attributed to the intercession of John Paul II, while
John XXIII was canonized for his merits of opening the Second Vatican Council. The date of the
canonization was assigned on 30 September 2013.
The Canonization
Mass was celebrated by Pope Francis (with Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI concelebrating),
on Sunday 27 April 2014, in St. Peter's Square at the Vatican in Rome. End of
quote.
We the believers
still wonder if the canonization of these two popes was too early after their
death, especially Pope John Paul who has died only 9 years ago. But then who
are we to assume that? We may as well assume that it was the will of God;
otherwise this would not have happened. We have just to wait and see if the
general public has anything to say.
-------------------------------------
The ceremony
As usual these
ceremonies attract lots of people and a million people were estimated to
attend. Also up to 150 Cardinals and 1,000 Bishops were expected to
concelebrate the canonization Mass, as usual if one thinks about it; this is
the greatest show on earth. After what we have seen here in Rome, we believe
that for sure there is nothing larger or more organized than these religious
ceremonies, so, no matter what some atheist or other religions might say, the
Roman Catholic Church is still the most dominant religion in the world, and it
will be for centuries to come, even if some small adjustment might be required
in the future.
Readers please note
that this article is not part of our religious writing of, Reconciliation of
the universe, however it a religious article that belongs to another group, I
hope I have been able to explain myself, so see you next time with whatever we
are able to write next.
May God bless us
all and guide us in his own ways?
