Pope Francis Says Obstinate Christians are Rebels

At a recent Mass at the Vatican, Pope Francis said those who have closed their hearts to the surprises of the Holy Spirit are obstinate idolaters and rebels and will never arrive at the fullness of truth. The fullness of truth, presumably, is the idolatrous Catholic Mass. Those who refuse to join in Rome’s ecumenical ways would, no doubt, then be considered obstinate rebels and idolaters by Rome.

The pope quoted the book of Samuel and said that Saul was rejected by God as the king of Israel because he disobeyed, because he said, “it’s always been done that way.” Apparently the pope means that those who reject the papal system of worship are like Saul.

He also quoted Christ who said, “No one sews a piece of unshrunken cloth on an old cloak. If he does, its fullness pulls away, the new from the old, and the tear gets worse. Likewise, no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the skins are ruined. Rather, new wine is poured into fresh wineskins.”
