From the homily of +Francis 11 April 2016:
“It hurts when I read that small passage from the Gospel of Matthew, when Judas, who has repented, goes to the priests and says: ‘I have sinned’ and wants to give … and gives them the coins. ‘Who cares! – they say to him: it’s none of our business!’ They closed their hearts before this poor, repentant man, who did not know what to do. And he went and hanged himself. And what did they do when Judas hanged himself? They spoke amongst themselves and said: ‘Is he a poor man? No! These coins are the price of blood, they must not enter the temple… and they referred to this rule and to that… The doctors of the letter.”
This is insanity. No, really. Who thinks like this?
This is an attack on those who understand that a person must actually repent of his sin in order to be forgiven – the doctors of the letter, otherwise known as Catholics until 2013. But what is worse than the attack is how he twists every element of what is really going on here.
First, Judas would not have sought forgiveness from the Jewish priests, regardless of what was in his heart, because the priests did not possess that power. If he were truly sorry, he would have gone to Jesus himself, or at least tried to intervene in the trial and execution. But of course he wasn’t really sorry, he was not contrite, he was only sorry FOR HIMSELF. He was sorry that he had gotten himself into this mess, and then he despaired and died in mortal sin.
But instead, +Francis PRAISES JUDAS. “This poor, repentant man.” Obviously, +Francis considers Judas to have been forgiven by God. So then wasn’t Judas the first martyr? Will his feast day be Good Friday? Or will it be transferred until after the Octave?
Now, contrast the near Canonization of Judas with +Francis’ thoughts on a few other matters:
- The BVM commits mortal sin at the foot of the cross, accusing God the Father of deception HERE
- God the Son commits the sin of deception HERE
- God the Son commits a sin in creating the Fifth Joyful Mystery, for which he needed to “beg forgiveness” HERE and HERE
- God the Father commits mortal sin by willing mortal sin HERE
Seriously, how is the diabolical inversion of truth not obvious to everyone? I can’t even keep up.
He seems a Lutheran at heart to ABS, and a poor one at that.
He is an AntiChrist and a blasphemous heretic but his election signaled that the Hierarchy favors his theological ideology for he was well known by the electors.
He was the chosen one who would restart the revolution (thus his choice of Domus Sanctae Marthae where the V2 revolutionaries met to strategerise and plan tactics to take over the Council) and he is working tirelessly to formalise the revolution which supplanted the One True Holy Roman Catholic and Apostolic Church with an anthropocentric masonry which has dethroned Jesus as King and put man in His place and which considers all men as naturally good, all religions as more or less equal in that they all solicit thus and such from the great architect, and dialogue as the sole way to bring peace on earth and the Shadow church ( no substance) is dutifully throwing-away this and that doctrine that makes comity twixt all religions more difficult.
The Inertia Into Indifferentism has intensified and increased in velocity since his election and ABS thinks the VAST majority of the Hierarchy agrees with the personal protestant creed of Bergoglio and suspects that a majority of the Hierarchy does not believe in the real presence and so dispensing Communion to Adulterers and sodomites is no biggie as Communion is now aught but s symbol of compassion, unity, and mutual acceptance of the community which celebrates a lord’s supper.
Look, if you invite everybody to a supper, who are you to deny them a meal?
