The antipope goes on to say:“Who
am I to judge gay people?” (July 29, 2013). And, on that same day he
reaffirmed: “The Roman Catholic Church’s position that homosexual acts were
sinful, but homosexual orientation was
not (sinful).
DUH! The reference to these Scripture quotes (which
follow), invalidates the antipope’s tendencies and erroneous “orientation”
assertion. In fact, it’s every homosexual act in its materiality
which is contrary to God’s Divine Will that’s manifested in the beginning,
whether imposed or CONSENTED.
The antipope’s predecessor, antipope Benedict XVl, signed a document
in 2005 that said men with deep-rooted homosexual tendencies should not be priests.
Is this to say that it’s OK only if the roots are not deep-seated?
Antipope Francis was much more conciliatory, saying gay clergymen
should be forgiven and their sins forgotten. But he left off what else must be
done--which is--ATTRITION. The
Catholic Church’s requirement for forgiving sins, and precisely the Words of Jesus: “…Go,
and now SIN NO MORE”. (John 8:11) requires that the sinner must amend his ways. Did we hear or see
the antipope use the word ATTRITION?
Are we seeing pedophile priest lawsuits diminishing?
Here’s a quote from the Old Testament: “Thou shalt not lie with mankind
as with womankind, because it is an abomination”. (Leviticus 18:22)
Here are quotes from the New Testament: “For this cause (homosexuality)
GOD DELIVERED THEM UP to shameful affections. For their women have changed the
natural use into that use which is against nature. And, in like manner, the men
also, leaving the natural use of the women, have burned in their lusts one
toward another, men with men working which is FILTHY, and receiving the
recompense which was due to their error.” (Romans 1:26-27).
“Foolish, dissolute, without affection, without fidelity, without mercy.
Who, having known the justice of God, did not understand that they who do such
things, are worthy of death; and not only they that do them, BUT THEY ALSO THAT
CONSENT TO THEM THAT DO THEM.” (Romans 1:32-32) (Emphasis added)
Isn’t this exactly the consent given to gay priests and the “favor of
Civil Unions for homosexuals” given by antipope Francis in the year 2010, shown
above?
