The Rule of Law and the Francis Pontificate

Post by Denise »

The rule of law is never subject to the slightest exception, even in times of crisis.

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales

sorry to say this but the self centredness (that we were warned about by members of his order.....at the beginning of bergoglio's pontificate) has unfolded while the good Cardinals stood aghast....laws were changed by bergoglio to implement agendas that were startling to say the least, record numbers of cardinals were made by him to ensure the agendas proceed when in the past he was out-voted.

His illness and realization of his frailty led him to much contemplation and prayer while in hospital...while the world delights that he is out of danger, there will be business as usual once the required convalescence is complete. The way forward is God's way.....as his predecessors St John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI always fought so tirelessly for ....always God first and Holy Mother Church.

In this Jubilee of the Lord's favour, we will definitely see a very different stance from him. As the narrative unfolds, let us keep praying for a worthy shepherd who is labelled as "the servant of the servants". Time to knuckle up and ensure the church blossoms, always under the direction of the Holy Spirit.
