Is the Pope the Antichrist? -
11-13-2010, 10:02 AM
Research indicates that the British decried the Papacy as being the "Antichrist of Scripture" (a view enshrined in the Westminster Confession of Faith, and therefore in the Treaty of Union of 1707 which brought the United Kingdom into existence)
Are the Brits right??
"shall not inherit the kingdom of God" (1 Corinthians 6:9-10).

Yes. Archbishop Ussher (a man inspired of God and who gave us the age of the Earth as 6000 years) called a meeting of the Irish bishops in his house in November of 1626, the result being the "Judgement of the Arch-Bishops and Bishops of Ireland". This begins: "The religion of the papists is superstitious and idolatrous; their faith and doctrine erroneous and heretical; their church in respect of both, apostatical; to give them therefore a toleration, or to consent that they may freely exercise their religion, and profess their faith and doctrine, is a grievous sin."
Sin is of Satan, the pope is of Satan.

Friend, "the Antichrist" is a misnomer.
Anyone who is a nonbeliever (or a partial, False "Christian In Name Only") is an antichrist. The term is used in the Bible exclusively in two of the epistles, 1 John and 2 John.
You can hover your mouse over the links to see the text. (I've included two for those visitors too lazy to accomplish this small feat.)
1 John 2:18: Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.
1 John 2:22
1 John 4:3
2 John 1:7:For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
I believe you are referring to the Beast, described in Revelation 13:1-8. In answer to that question, I believe the Beast may in fact be Mitt Romney or Glenn Beck.
Revelation 13:16-17
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:

The reason that the British declared the pope as the Antichrist was by Henry VIII's whims. Henry VIII wanted a son so desperately, that he went through six wives in order to get one (of course this is foolish because males carry the y chromosome that creates males, but that's a discussion for individuals with IQ's above 70...) Anyway, Henry VIII wanted to annul his marriage, but the pope would not allow it. For this reason, he led the British in a revolt against the Catholic church and the Pope. He then created the Protestant church. His justification for revolt was that the Pope should not be the sole interpreter of the Bible, for then everyone else would have a skewed view of morals and religion as a whole. Further, he said that the Pope should not be allowed to change the rules of God or Jesus Christ, which made him the Antichrist. This claim is not factually based or logically sound. In fact, your belief that the Pope is the Antichrist is questioning the word of God and the truth that the Pope is holy, which is heresy. Please, feel free to tell me that I will burn in Hell. I'd prefer to be in Hell with such heretics as Newton and Einstein than in Heaven with fools like you people.

I am sure God will arrange for you to goto hell.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth
Proverbs 19:25 Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
Ezekiel 16:14 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord GOD.
Proverbs 6:25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.
Genesis 24:16 And the damsel was very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
Song of Solomon 1:15 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes.

Do you assume that Henry VIII had an IQ below 70 because he lived centuries before such details of God's creation as chromosomes were discovered?
Your name is well chosen; you truly are arrogant.

Actually, it IS factually based (the Catholic cult largely ignores the Bible for its own traditions) and it is logically sound and supported by Scripture. The Pope is antichrist. (Not "The Antichrist"; if you bothered to read this thread, you'd see my post earlier explaining that there is no "Antichrist", and that the term refers to all who deny Christ or teach false doctrines.)
The Pope may or may not be the Beast, but that's another question entirely.

Sounds like you're a Catholic, not an atheist. Atheists tend to know the Bible well enough to know that the Catholic cult's hierarchy is not referenced in or justified by it in any way, shape, or form. Catholics, on the other hand, usually have never read the Bible.

If you want to spend eternity being burned alive in God's Lake of Fire, with no chance of escape and not even the sweet embrace of death to look forward to, there's nothing we can do to stop you.
When you're shrieking in unknowable agony, I hope you'll pause between breaths to remember that we reached out to help you find Jesus, and you took Pope Maledict's hand and kissed his ring instead.

The Pope is neither the antichrist nor an antichrist. Lucifer is the antichrist, who at this time is behind Jesus, in Heaven, being guarded by Michael. He will soon be released at the 6Th trump, 6th seal, and the 6th vial. He will come in as Jesus, decieving many. The real Jesus will show up at the 7th trump.

The new Pope is working overtime to present himself as the enemy of Satan. Just what we would expect of the anti Christ.
He talks on endlessly about a literal Satan. Don't be fooled by this. It's a sure sign he is what he says he is against:

Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

Strange how an atheist so reveres these two very religious persons (yes they're probably burning for their heretical views, but they never meant to insult or diminish GOD).
I still hope that GOD showed them that their prideful false-modesty was just that and gave them a chance. One cannot but think that given their education it was easy to fail in finding all the truth about GOD for themselves.
PRAISE THE LORD!

The pope of Rome is most definitely the antichrist. This is not up for debate.
