In breaking News just to hand the pope of the Roman Catholic Church has announced his resignation effective As of Febuary 28th 2013:In an unprecented move not seen in some 600 years the pope is stepping aside due to failing health - and the inability to carry out all his duties with the strength needed for such an " important" role. (Unquote)Paving the way for a conclave of cardinals to assemble and get together to appoint his successor.In the meantime the pope's Doctor has advised NO more transatlantic trips in this interim transitional phase and period of positional leadership.Which brings me incidently to my next point?What pope hasn't risen to Power and been APPOINTEDThat wasn't suspected to be the next Beast of revelation?The next antichrist and the next man of sin (smile)Eww how spooky!Only matter of time till they come out the woodwork:You heard it here first folks:Watch this space.For startling predictions, hookeyness, flakiness, and spiritual spookiness

this is not canted at you, beloved brother...not at all, but as i drove into town, radio on, i hear in quasi-breathless tones, "in a shocking developement..."...."hasnt occured in 600 years"....and i think to myself...."who cares?".its much the same as reading main stream news, or watching secular friends on facebook, chattering away about the whole circus of the "grammy awards".....equally breathless accounts......"over 28 million watched", etc etc etc.its all such vapor, meaningless. My heart bleeds for the dear souls, WHO DO love Jesus, that are trapped in that system....thats the only way i can reference "roman catholicism"...is as a system, an organization.brothers and sisters, until i apprehended that Jesus is Messiah...i did not even KNOW there was a difference between roman catholicism and protestantism...in my understanding....Jewish, both were just.....two forms of Gentiles....thats ALL i knew, until God in His Love and His Mercy revealed His Son TO me and IN me.now i know different.....my only heartache is that there are SO many denominations flying in the face of the High Priestly Prayer of Jesus in John 17.oh well....God will sort it all out, of that i have NO doubt. none. God love you brother, neil
