Pope Francis Kisses Skin and Blood Relics at John Paul II's and John XXIII's Canonisation

On April 27th 2014 the Roman Catholic Church canonised two former popes, John Paul II and John XXIII. Rome now declares them to be 'saints' who can intercede to God on the people's behalf. Is such a practice Biblical? Who are the true saints of God? What does it mean to be a saint according to the Word of God? Should the Church use relics or should they ever contact the dead in prayer? Paul looks also at what the Bible says about the Roman Church and what it says for those within it's communion.
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" -1 Timothy 2:5

"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities." -Revelation 18:4-5 ( http://www.youtube.com/user/megiddofilms )

Pope Kisses Skin, Blood Relics in Declaring ‘Sainthood’ to John Paul II, John XXIII ( CHRISTIANNEWS.NET)



ROME – A crowd of approximately one million spectators crowded St. Peter’s Square in Rome on Sunday for the canonization ceremony for Popes John Paul II and John XXIII, as Pope Francis declared sainthood to the two deceased pontiffs.

The event was stated to have been the largest public Roman Catholic gathering since the funeral of John Paul II in 2005. Pope Francis was joined by his predecessor Pope Benedict at the event, as well as leaders and dignitaries from 122 nations worldwide.

As part of the rites, Francis was presented with relics from both of the two men–a vial of blood belonging to John Paul II and a fleck of skin removed from the body of John XXIII during his beatification. He kissed each container as they were received and placed at the altar. Tapestries were also hung in the square that bore the images of the popes.

“We declare and define Blessed John XXIII and John Paul II to be saints and we enroll them among the saints, decreeing that they are to be venerated as such by the whole Church,” Francis declared in reading his prepared decree. - CONTINUE READING PLS. CLICK HERE.

Jesuit Pedophiles... GUILTY!

Jesuit priest at Adelaide St Ignatius' College admits to child pornography offences
By court reporter James Hancock - Updated Thu 6 Mar 2014, 2:53pm AEDT

A Jesuit priest and teacher at Saint Ignatius' College in Adelaide has admitted to child pornography offences. Father Stan Hogan, 69, has pleaded guilty to accessing child pornography and an aggravated count of possessing child pornography. The offences happened between April-June 2012 and last August at suburban Athelstone.

Hogan was suspended from the college after his arrest last August. A publication by the Catholic Archdiocese of Adelaide said Hogan was ordained in 1976 and also taught at schools in Victoria and New South Wales.

He is to be sentenced in the Adelaide District Court, where there will be a further hearing next month. The Jesuits have issued a statement saying Hogan acted alone and has had no contact with the college since the time he was arrested.

Statement from the Jesuits

A Jesuit priest, Fr Stan Hogan, today has pleaded guilty in an Adelaide court to two criminal charges: the use of the internet to view and download child pornography and to possession of child pornography.
Fr Hogan was suspended from all duties at St Ignatius’ College, Adelaide, as soon as these matters were brought to the attention of Jesuit authorities last August, when Fr Hogan was arrested. Since that time he has been on bail living away from the school, under supervision and where he will continue to live until sentenced. He has been allowed no contact with the College nor anyone in the wider community. Fr Hogan acted alone and there is no suggestion that his crimes are connected with anyone else. The Province has co-operated with the police and fully supports the due application of the

law. The welfare of all people served by ministries of the Australian Jesuit Province is paramount. Children in particular are owed special care and everything possible is done in our ministries to protect and nurture children at all times. Jesuits and lay friends and colleagues with whom Fr Hogan has worked are deeply shocked to learn of his crimes, which are an abuse of the children involved and a betrayal of them and of the wider community he was expected to serve. Child exploitation offences are serious crimes involving the sexual abuse of the children portrayed, and are morally repugnant. - Father Stephen Curtin, Provincial of the Jesuits (Source: ABC.net.au)

A Jesuit priest pleads guilty to offences against children

A Catholic priest in the Jesuit Order, Father David Rankin (now aged 79), is pleading guilty to historical acts of indecency on young boys in Sydney. The offences occurred in the 1960s when Rankin was a lay teacher before he joined the priesthood.

On 30 April 2014, Father Rankin (full name Gregory David Rankin) appeared in Sydney's Downing Centre District Court for pre-sentence proceedings. He confirmed his guilty plea.

He is scheduled to be sentenced on a later date.

According to court documents, David Rankin was a lay teacher at Northbridge Primary School in northern Sydney when he committed 11 acts of indecency on three boys in the 1960s.

The court documents said Rankin molested one boy after volunteering to tutor the 11-year-old after school in late 1963. The abuse continued at tri-weekly tutoring sessions the following year.

On one occasion, Rankin drove the boy to another school in Manly to commit an assault.

Rankin told the victim he loved him and gave him money on a number of occasions.

He swore the boy to secrecy, warning that he and the boy would both “get into big trouble” if the incidents were discovered.

About the same time, the offender molested two other boys during rehearsals for school musicals.

Both of those victims gave statements to police in 2012, leading to Rankin’s arrest.

The other victim told a number of family members of the abuse, but did not report it to police until 2009.

Footnote
Gregory David Rankin joined the Jesuits as a mature-age entrant in the early 1970s. The Jesuits are an Australia-wide organisation. In the Australian Catholic Directory, Reverend David Rankin, SJ, has been listed at Jesuit addresses in Melbourne (at the Jesuits' parish in Hawthorn), Sydney and Canberra. In some years he has been listed as living overseas (it is believed that his overseas locations included Canada and London).

According to a newspaper report, Father David Rankin spent some years in Canberra, most recently as a hospital chaplain.

In 2010, aged in his seventies, David Rankin was reported to be living in a Jesuit house in Canberra. On 13 October 2010 a Jesuit newsletter published this news item (under the heading "A trinity of jubilees"):

"On Sunday October 10 [in 2010], John Eddy, Frank Brennan and David Rankin celebrated significant anniversaries at the Jesuit residence in Yarralumla, Canberra.

"John Eddy, the doyen of the community who has spent most of his life as a Jesuit at the Australian National University in Canberra, celebrated his sixtieth anniversary as a Jesuit. David Rankin celebrated his fortieth anniversary as a Jesuit. Frank Brennan celebrated the twenty-fifth anniversary of his ordination as a Priest.

"Special guests at the celebrations included Australian Jesuit Provincial Fr Steve Curtin and the former Australian Prime Minister, Hon Kevin Rudd MP.

"The afternoon tea also offered guests the opportunity to see the renovations at the Yarralumla residence, which will enhance its value as a centre of ministry."

In April 2014, the Jesuits' Australian provincial-superior (Father Steve Curtin) told the media that David Rankin was removed from active ministry after the Jesuits learned of charges against him when he was arrested in August 2012.

Fr Curtin said David Rankin moved to a Jesuit community in Victoria where he is under supervision in compliance with his bail conditions.

In the mid-2013 edition of the Australian Catholic Directory, the Jesuit listings included:
"RETIRED - Rev. David Rankin SJ."

Amazing Grace - The History & Theology of Calvinism

Just what is "Calvinism?" Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won't evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God's sovereignty and man's responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists deny the Arminian definition of free will and label it heresy? Why did the Roman Catholic Church condemn the Reformed teaching of predestination and election and embrace free will theology? And why do so many Protestants, perhaps unwittingly, agree with Rome on this issue?

Amazing Grace:The History and Theology of Calvinism is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. This fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten "Sunday-school-sized" sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer.

Part One explores the history of the debate. It begins with the pivotal dispute between Augustine and Pelagius and continues through the semi-pelagian controversy; focusing particularly on the debate between Martin Luther and Desiderius Erasmus. Many viewers will be shocked to discover that free-will theology was NOT the doctrine of the Reformation but instead the teaching of an increasingly apostate Roman Catholic Church. The history section ends with a definitive historical explanation of the issues that arose during the Calvinist/Arminian controversy. By examining the five points of Arminianism and the Synod of Dort's response, the viewer will clearly see that the Protestant Church understood how the Gospel would be compromised if Arminianism prevailed.

Part Two opens the Word of God, our ultimate authority for life and faith. The five points of Arminianism are put on trial as what would later come to be known as the "five points of Calvinism" are clearly and forcefully presented.

Part Three asks and answers the provocative question: If Calvinism is true, if God is absolutely sovereign; then why should we evangelize? It also explores the vital issue of how to and to whom the gospel should be presented so as to be faithful to the great doctrines of God's sovereignty, man's depravity, and the miracle of amazing grace.

Rich in graphics, dramatic vignettes, and biblical analogies, Amazing Grace - The History and Theology of Calvinism also features many of the finest reformed thinkers and pastors of our time: Dr. R.C. Sproul, Dr. D. James Kennedy, Dr. George Grant, Dr. Stephen Mansfield, Dr. Thomas Ascol, Dr. Thomas Nettles, Dr. Roger Schultz, Pastor Walt Chantry, Dr. Joe Morecraft, Dr. Ken Talbot, Pastor Walter Bowie and Dr. R.C. Sproul, Jr..

Come learn what the great Baptist preacher C.H. Spurgeon meant when he said, "...to deny Calvinism is to deny the gospel of Jesus Christ."

Ecumenism: Spiritual Whoredom

Many people are being deceived not only by the Jesuits and the Vatican Luciferians but by many cults and false religions of the world. Their main message is to be UNITED that God the Creator can be found in many religions and faith and there are many roads to salvation... that you can be a Muslim and go to heaven or be a Hindu and still be saved. But is this what the Scripture is teaching? Obviously this is a lie... Jesus said that He is the ONLY way... There is no other way but to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved (john 14:6 KJV). Modern Ecumenism is a lie and a deception by Roman Catholics... Dont be deceived. Biblical Christianity is teaching us to be separated from the false religions of the world. Get out of her before its too late! Her masonic illuminati agents are working hard to get you out of the true teachings of the Messiah. True holiness is separation from the satanic system that is now working in the children of disobedience.
