a guy gets old and retires...apparently this is somehow a sign of the end times....i just dont understand sometimes i guess. I just figured the guy was tired of the job, not that this could signal armageddon
Most Christians have zero respect these days. Obama's The Anti-Christ, the Pope resigns so it must be the end of the world.

It gets tiring the sheer idiocy of it all. It's like life is a constant reality tv show for these people and every event is blown out of proportion.

When senior leaders come to a place where they can no longer meet the requirements of the position, for whatever reason, retiring is the right course of action. I wonder why it took 611 years to see a Pope act with this integrity.
at this rate the papacy will accept the reformation in the mid 2100s...i can dream right?

This is what I posted in a forum last year.......

Revelations 17: "There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must continue a short time. The beast that was, and is not, is himself also the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going to perdition"



The 7 kings are 7 popes

So the 7th pope (current Pope, Benedikt XVI) will reign for a short time (he will either die or step down)
The 8th pope will replace the others and will be just like them. He will be the last Pope!

Rev 13:3: "I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads a blasphemous name. And I saw one of his heads as if it had been mortally wounded, and his deadly wound was healed. And all the world marveled and followed the beast"

A Lateran treaty was signed in 1929 between the Italian Government and the Vatican re-establishing the political power and diplomatic standing of the Catholic Church, which had been lost when Italy seized Rome, the last of the Papal States, on September 20th, 1870.

These 7 popes came into power after the wound was healed in 1929, the birth of the Vatican State. They even put all these stamps together in memory of the treaty!

Reform of the international financial system
In response to the global economic crisis started in 2008, Cardinal Turkson together with bishop Mario Toso elaborated a proposal to reform the international financial system by creating a Global Public Authority and a Global Bank that consider the interest of all developing countries. The document of 40 pages was officially presented in October 2011 and criticizes the actual structure of International Monetary Fund and other institutions.[20]

BILATERAL COMMISSION MEETING
Jerusalem, March 11-13, 2007; Adar 21-23, 5767


3. God has created the human person as a social being which by definition places limits on individual human freedom. Moreover freedom of choice is derived from God and therefore is not absolute, but must reflect Divine will and law. Accordingly human beings are called to freely obey the Divine will as manifested in the Creation and in His revealed word.

Jewish tradition emphasizes the Noachide Covenant (cf. Gn 9: 9-12) as containing. the universal moral code which is incumbent on all humanity. This idea is reflected in Christian Scripture in the Book of Acts 15: 28-29.
