‘I Unite Myself’: ‘Pope’ Calls Muslims ‘Brothers and Sisters’ in Message at St. Patrick’s Cathedral | Christian News Network

“This pope would make a great NWO religious leader. He contradicts Jesus as to who a Christians brothers and sisters are. Read Matthew: 12:48 – 12:50. Mat. 12:50 “For whoever does the will of My Father who is in heaven, he is My brother and sister and mother.” What is the will of the Father, read John 6:40: “For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.” Non Christians are fellow human beings but are not doing the will of the Father as stated above (i.e. they are not born again and do not belong to the family of God) so they can’t be our brothers and sisters. Islam teaches that God has no son and that Jesus is just a man, a great prophet, but just a man and not the Son of God. The Jesus of Islam is NOT the Jesus of the Bible. The pope needs to get his theology straight.” Admin

During a speech at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City on Thursday night, the Roman Catholic pontiff known as Francis offered prayers for his Muslim “brothers and sisters” on the Islamic Feast of Sacrifice following word of a deadly stampede during the annual pilgrimage to Mecca.

“I would like to express two sentiments for my Muslim brothers and sisters,” he began. “First, I send my greetings as they celebrate the Feast of Sacrifice [Eid al-Adha]. I would have my greeting to have been warmer. My sentiments are closeness.”

“I am close to them in the face of tragedy, the tragedy they suffered in Mecca,” Francis continued. “In this moment, I give assurances in their prayers. I unite myself with you all in prayer to Almighty God, all merciful.”

Approximately 700 people were killed yesterday and nearly 1,000 more injured during a ritual in Saudi Arabia called “stoning the devil,” during which participants throw stones at three pillars in a reenactment of Abraham’s alleged stoning of the devil to avoid temptation—according to Muslim tradition. During the ritual, the large crowds began to surge and some fell and were trampled to death.
