And all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the
dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast,
saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? Revelation 13:3, 4
"Pope Francis arrived in Hungary on April 28, 2023, for an apostolic
visit to the nation. During a welcome ceremony, the Pope met with the
president, the prime minister, and other political authorities at the
Sándor Palace. In his official address to the nation, Pope Francis urged
Hungarians and the European community to come together as one, to use
Christianity as a “bridge builder,” and to end divisions. The Vatican’s
Holy Press Office reported the following:
“The most famous bridge in Budapest, the chain bridge, helps us to
envision that kind of Europe, since it is composed of many great and
diverse links that derive their solidity and strength from being joined
together. In this regard, the
Christian faith can be a resource, and Hungary can act as a “bridge
builder” by drawing upon its specific ecumenical character..... It is urgent then, as Europe, to work for secure and legal corridors and established processes for meeting an epochal challenge that is ineluctable and needs to be acknowledged, in order to prepare a future that, unless it is shared, will not exist.”
Pope Francis is urging church and state to collaborate in order to
impact and change our societies. This is a dangerous course that will
lead to disastrous results such as the loss of religious freedoms, the
corruption of the church, and the undermining of our civil rights. The
Pope is once again inserting himself into political matters, seeking
political power, and causing the world to become intoxicated with the
wine of Babylon." AdventMessenger
