The Pope Has Died

 There is going to be a lot of prophetic buzzing going on around this next Pope.  We have said for some years that the Pope will be a candidate to serve as False Prophet during the 70th Week of Daniel.  He will be a charismatic guy who will likely come out with a platform that has already started in the Catholic Church and that others around the world will embrace.

Here are some of the ideas of what he will likely say;

-all religions are welcomed by God.  Be a good person and be kind to your neighbors

-Islam is a great Abrahamic faith and Allah is just another name for our heavenly father

-Israel has no meaning because God loves all nations equally

-promises of blessings in the Bible are available to ALL people who love the father

-being gay, transgender or anything under the LGBTQIA+ rainbow is a blessing from God.

-any other life forms in the universe are OUR brothers and sisters of creation and we will welcome them

-the guy who confirmed a peace agreement with Israel and the world "blessed" because he is a "peacemaker", and remember what Jesus told us in the beatitudes!  Blessed are the peacemakers!

Pope Francis died on Monday morning, the Vatican announced, days after he was discharged from hospital after undergoing treatment for a complex respiratory infection. He was 88 years old.

His death, 12 years after he was declared pope, has prompted renewed questions about who will succeed him as leader of the Catholic Church, one of the oldest and largest religious institutions with up to 1.39 billion followers.

Here’s what you need to know about what could come after Pope Francis, whose social justice ideals and global vision have transformed the Church.

A successor has yet to be chosen.

The College of Cardinals, comprised of senior Catholic clergy – many appointed by Francis himself – will elect the next pope. To be eligible, a candidate must be a baptised, male Roman Catholic, though for centuries, the cardinals have exclusively selected someone from their ranks.

There are currently more than 240 cardinals worldwide. They typically hold the title for life.

Who are the top candidates to become the next pope?

Of the 138 cardinals eligible to vote in the conclave, a total of 110 were appointed by Pope Francis. This group is notably more diverse than previous electors, with a higher representation from Asia, Africa and Latin America, reflecting Francis’s goal of mirroring the Church’s global reach. The youngest cardinal elector is only 45 years old, a Ukrainian clergyman based in Australia.

As a result, there is a possibility that, for the first time in centuries, the next pope could come from Africa or Asia, or another region traditionally underrepresented in the Church’s leadership.

Among the African cardinals being discussed are Ghana’s Peter Turkson, the former head of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s Fridolin Ambongo, archbishop of Kinshasa. Both are committed conservatives who have been vocal advocates for peace in their respective countries.

Another strong contender is Philippine Cardinal Luis Tagle, the former archbishop of Manila. Like Pope Francis, Tagle emphasises social justice and caring for the poor.

Hungarian Cardinal Peter Erdo is seen as a leading conservative candidate and could serve as a bridge to Eastern Christians. The archbishop of Esztergom-Budapest, Erdo, is a traditionalist who has championed outreach to Orthodox Christians, stressing the “desperate need” for unity between the churches.

That last guy sounds like a contender!!  He stresses the desperate need for unity between the churches!

Remember, all of this is interesting but just for fun.  Jesus will come for us before the Antichrist will be revealed and while it doesn't explicitly say so, we are guessing that the False Prophet won't be named until the Antichrist has been enthroned.

Even so, come Lord Jesus!
