Damn, that's savage.
The reality though, is that the Vatican will not open it's doors to them and they're going to end up in Italy anyway.
Well, then... the Pope is going to hell, then, if it is a sin.
Probably more the Matthew 25:40... with all the wealth The Vatican has... you'd think they could throw scraps from the table.
Of course, a couple "Hail Mary's" a few "Our Fathers"...
What do you think the cost for an "Illegal immigrant denial Indulgent" goes for?!
I am not Roman Catholic.... but I say 'our Father' prayer every week.
My prayers don't get me into heaven. They are an outward expression towards the Triune God of my faith in him.
It's by Jesus Grace alone that I, a wretch, am given salvation, and were predestined to be a believer by God even before the foundations of the Earth were laid (Eph 1:6-13).
And though the Pope is in error on many things, there are MANY MANY Catholics that also understand that their salvation is in Christ alone.
May God one day give the Roman Church a Pope that is not making declarative errors like Francis has.
I believe that eccumenism is an inevitability..... but it must come through all parties discerning the truth through scripture.... and by no other means.
