"Pope Francis
is being credited with a miracle -- or at least a "half miracle" --
after St. Gennaro's blood liquified in his presence in Naples on
Saturday.
The saint's blood is usually dry inside of its sealed glass ampoule.
However, after the pope kissed the relic, it began to
turn to liquid.
“It is the sign that St. Gennaro loves Pope Francis: half of the blood turned to liquid," Cardinal Crescenzo Sepe, archbishop of Naples, told the cheering crowd, according to Vatican Insider.
“If only half of it liquefied that means we still have work to do; we have to do better," the pontiff replied. "We have only half of the saint’s love.”
The website reports that the blood continued to liquefy until the entire contents of the ampoule had turned to liquid, causing some in the crowd to weep." HP
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,
and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that,
if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
