Pope Francis re-stated his belief that President Trump “is not Christian” this week – and then shocked Catholics around the world by holding an Islamic prayer and Quran recital in the Vatican.
The readings and prayer came as Pope Francis met with Israeli President Shimon Peres and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Vatican City, a gathering designed to promote peace in the Middle East.
A Holy See spokesman said the prayers were supposed to be a “pause in politics.” The pope said that he hoped the interfaith prayers would foster peace specifically between Israelis and Palestinians, according to the Associated Press.

The Vatican also broadcasted a live feed of the event to viewers across the world.
Christians have pointed out that the pope’s decision to declare the Bible and the Quran the same and allow Islamic prayer in the Vatican directly contradicts Biblical teaching.
“Jesus said to him, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, then you will also know my Father.” John 14: 6-7
The Catholic Church, under liberal Pope Francis, is taking another terrible U-turn.
Allowing the worship of another god under the guise of “liberal tolerance” directly contradicts God’s word.
The attempt to absorb a heathen religion – the most anti-Christ religion on the face of the earth – is a direct slap in the face of God, His Son, and faithful Christian around the world.

” He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot, but don’t let that fool you. He really is an idiot.” Groucho Marx
Yet, he is a very clever idiot and knows exactly what he is doing, achieving a Babylonian mystery legion resurrection, in serving the master of demons.
Clever evil demonic Satanist perhaps?
It’s clear the Vatican is part-n-parcel of the plan to overrun the west with muslims. I just can’t wrap my head around the sheer size of this very real conspiracy.
Do practicing catholics approve of this anti-western Vatican conduct?
Lol.. Get a life.. Peace.
Have alook at the head on the creep…and tell me that’s not satan incarnate…… The pope doesn’t even have any power…he is a puppet,,,the BLACK POPE IS THE ONE WITH THE POWER,,.. The white pope is a nothing….
You are an incredible bonehead. Do you honestly believe that being a racist idiot yourself, is the way to help eliminate racism, in others. Black people need to stop trying to punish white folks who have nothing to do with all the bad history, most if not all, which has never affected you personally, to begin with. Combatting racism with racism, is absolutely pointless, and makes you no better than the racist whites, that still exist. It only hinders progress, for EVERYONE. You need to get over the idea, that the struggles of the past, are your struggles, today. And you need to accept that most white people are not racists. Not in this day and age. Racism is an unfortunate part of human nature, that thoughtful, intelligent people can move beyond. Those who refuse to let go, are who stand in the way of moving forward.
I’m sick of seeing these imbecilic mouthings from this idiot dressed in a white dress.
Maybe he would look good in a black burka?
The pope speaks for lucifer not Christ.
Good for him.. we are all the same …Utter nonsense to think any different…
Who ever wrote this article is to increase hate, and is ignorant. They claim Islam calls to worships another god and hates the Christ. This proves they know nothing about Islam. Islam calls to worship the one God, the merciful who sent Jesus, Mosis, Solaman, David, Abraham, Noah, Adem….and ending by Mohamed peace be upon them all. It’s the one and the Same god. The Messiah Jesus son of Meriem has, and his mother the virgin, a very high importance in Islam as written on the last revealed holy book of god “Quoran”, so go and read, learn. Be objective. All you have in your heart is hate.
The ignorance is shocking… Christianity and Islam share the same God. The prophets and messengers are the same. Jesus is Isa who is a messenger from God. Open a book ignorant fools. Including the journalist who write this pathetic article. Get an education
thank you
100% true
100% False.
Who’s ignorance are you speaking of ? I don’t need a book, OR an idiot, to tell me that No one can EDUCATE me, on God. And anyone who would presume to do so, is the LAST person I would listen to. I have my own relationship with God, based on my own beliefs. No one is qualified to tell me that I am wrong. Of course, I believe there is but ONE God. But I’m not about to let ANYONE define him for me, any more than I would attempt to do so, for anyone else. We never stop getting told WHAT to believe, regarding our earthly lives, and how to best manage them. I am not about to let mortal humans dictate to me, what they cannot possibly know. Go ahead and spread your beliefs to whoever wants to listen. But if you think you KNOW more than anyone else… you are among the most ignorant of all.
“I have my own relationship with God, based on my own beliefs.” So you basically invented your own god. You worship and follow yourself.
To interpret what I said, in that way, just identifies you as a shit disturber, and an ass hole. There isn’t a person on this planet, who KNOWS any more, that anyone else. The only difference between my views, and most who belive in God, is that I don’t believe in religion. Those who do, allow their beliefs to be dictated by others, who are in no position to claim credibility, over anyone else’s beliefs. If you’re an athieist, there is no point in weighing in on the beliefs of anyone who believes in a higher power. We can’t prove that one exists. And you can’t prove that one doesn’t. It is only for those who do, to speculate on anything beyond the mere existance of that higher power. How the hell do you rationalize having any thoughts whatsoever, on who or what that higher power consists of, when you don’t even believe that it exists ? So, your snarky remarks are nothing more that pointless bullshit, meant to antagonize others, who do. The notion that you can get an education, regarding the existance of a higher power, is just ridiculous. You can educate yourself on different religions, till you take your last breath. And you will have learned nothing, other than what others believe, and how it might affect their thinking, or behavior. So there are no answers as to the existance of God, in any book ever written, that can’t be discounted, just as legitimately as it can be supported. We all have our own beliefs. Most simply allow themselves to be manipulated, by others. In that regard, we may be alot alike. If you are NOT an atheist, and you belive that all yer book learnin’ has given you anything concrete, then we are very different. Either way, it’s pretty ignorant of you, to believe that you, or anyone else can educate others on God. You can claim knowledge of RELIGIONS, all you want. And I wouldn’t bother arguing, with anything you had to say, on the matter. It’s a subject I have no interest in. And I realize that that is all you were doing, in your initial comment. My reaction to that was kind of knee jerk, because of the attitude behind it. But your comment directed at me, was absolutely pointless, and just as antagonistic as your comment to those who you claim are uneducated. In their case, you may be right. In my case, you have no insight to offer, that’s going to trump my own beliefs. If you want to call that worshiping myself, then you expose an ignorance, all your own.
Okay. I just read your original comment, from before you decided to give me shit. And I now assume that you are NOT an atheist, since you say you study The Bible, every day. And apparently, you believe in some religion, or maybe several. I don’t know what your story is. It doesn’t really matter, because as I said before… I don’t believe in religion. If you consider yourself a Christian, or a man of God, why is it so hard for you to accept, that I can believe in the same God as you (since there can only be one God), without believing that there are mere mortals, who have all the answers, to all the questions, one might have. If I want to play your game, I could call you a sheep, or a follower. And maybe you would agree, if you were to take that as meaning that you are one of Christ’s flock, or that you follow Jesus, the scriptures, God… spin it any way you want. But in your case, being a follower means that you let others dictate what you believe. I have no problem with that… until you attack me, for not doing the same. You interpret my belief in God, simply because I don’t allow him to be defined for me by others, to mean that it is actually self-worship… that I believe that I am God ? That is completely irrational, and actually makes no sense. You believe what others tell you, or you read in books, all you want. I would never criticize another for that, as long as they are following a religion that is not hateful, or self righteous. You may not qualify for the hateful tag. But self righteous… I’m pretty sure that one fits, based on your comment, to me. And I find it pretty sad, that you can love God, or at least believe in him, and be so cynical toward another, who shares the most important part of that belief, but simply does not want or need the guidence of others, who base their entire belief system on theory, and the teachings of others, and some history, which has been used to weave great tales, with wonderful lessons of morality, and love of God. If you feel that this is just, and the way God would want you to be an advocate on his behalf, that simply exemplifies why I choose my own beliefs. They stem from MY relationship with God, and MY life experiences, and MY heart. What religion does can be a very good thing, as far as bringing people together, to share their love of God, their joys, their pain, their failures and triumphs, and the way God influences them, through it all. But the exclusivity part… the disrespect for someone who doesn’t follow the same path to God as you… you can keep that shit.
Hmmm. I study the Bible every day. I have read quite a bit of the Quran, Hadith and the Sira. If they are the same god they certainly do not resemble one another.
You are the ignorant one. Your prophet (piss be upon him) was a filthy paedophile. Shame on you.
Jesus said that he is the only way to God. Muhammad said that Jesus is not the only way to God. You must choose who to believe. The only people-group on earth that won’t admit that Jesus died on the cross is Muslims. The evidence that he died is greater than any other event in ancient history. If apostasy from Islam did not require the death penalty, most Muslims would not be Muslims. Muhammad was either deceived or he was a liar. Have you ever read the Bible for yourself? I’ve read the Koran. It’s easy to see that the Devil wrote it. Almost the only thing is says is that Jews and Christians are deceived, and that Jesus was not God. Wake up, man. That’s all it really says. Go read the Bible. See how God talks to you. It’s like he’s real and he loves you. Allah does not love you, and his speech is brutish and wicked. Compare the way the true God speaks to the false god Allah.
Why are the Muslims always drains at best on Christian societies then? Did the Christian God want us to have to host such parasites?
Pope is not Christian and not Catholic,
not at all!! Live Vatikan forever!! We must all go against this Herertic Pope.. I can`t believe what l hear.. .( https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/8c2caff4a042e1636fdcbc4b7ed80f180449fc82ee680810b45b0dc0b4486268.jpg
This Pope is the Anti/Christ! No doubt about it.
Ignorant writer. He knows nothing about Islam. Go read some books first before you speak about what you totally don’t know. What “another God” in Islam you are talking about, Mr. Idiot and from where did you get that Islam that considers the Christ a prophet and his mother a holy person is the most anti-Christ religion?!!!
Moon God. Islam is sick and evil. Your prophet is a paedophile.
You seem a good follower to the media in your country.
This Pope is a nice guy
Ignorant writer.. Our Pope is by far the best Pope ever and has a true understanding of God the Almighty.. Who taught you Muslims are against Jesus and Christian God the Father?
It’s all the same God. Educate yourself before writing a hate filled article. Applies to all other ignorant rants..
You are the ignorant one. Christians worship Jesus as God. Muslims do not worship Jesus as God. Therefor, they do not worship the same god. There’s nothing hateful about that. It’s simple logic. Somehow that has escaped your notice.
Sloppy article. Didn’t Shimon Peres die last year?
Has anyone ever given the thought that the pope is using the muslims to slaughter so in the end there is only one church….i.e. Catholic….protecting it’s power, politics and riches….I am thinkin so….prophecy…the whore of Babylon…who is the beast that rides the dragon…notice I have not heard of one Catholic church being blown up, or Catholics being sought out… only Coptic Christians…. which are in direct opposition to Roman Catholic Church. Correct me if wrong…would like to know. Anyone have facts on this….no just quessing…or opinions…just wants some facts.
The Devil will use whatever means necessary to exterminate the true Christians from the earth. Rome does have a golden cup full of abominations, but do remember that the Beast will turn on the whore of Babylon and devour her at the end. Worldwide worship of Lucifer/Satan is the goal.
You sir have a true understanding! May God keep you safe!
To the Muslim below who thinks that Christians and Muslims worship the same god:
Jesus said that he is the only way to God. Muhammad said that Jesus is not the only way to God. You must choose who to believe.
Christians worship Jesus as God in the flesh. Muslims do not worship Jesus. This shows that it is you that is the ignorant one. The only people-group on earth that won’t admit that Jesus died on the cross is Muslims. The evidence that he died is greater than for any other event in ancient history. If apostasy from Islam did not require the death penalty, most Muslims would not be Muslims. Muhammad was either deceived or he was a liar. Have you ever read the Bible for yourself? I’ve read the Koran. It’s easy to see that the Devil wrote it. Almost the only thing is says is that Jews and Christians are deceived, and that Jesus was not God. That’s all it really says. Go read the Bible. See how God talks to you. It’s like he’s real and he loves you. Allah does not love you, and his speech is brutish and wicked. Compare the way the true God speaks to the false god Allah.
Jesus is God manifested in flesh to mankind. He died for our sins. Repentance of your sin and accepting him as savior guarantees you admittance into heaven. Eternal life is a free gift. You don’t have to earn it. How can you earn eternal life? Can I spit in your face and slap you with my boot and then sweep your house as an apology? What is a lifetime of sin in your heart? Can that be payed off? Can a man commit a crime and pay the judge some money? If the judge looks the other way and lets the criminal go free, has justice been paid? How will you buy your way into heaven?
The Christians have taught the same thing for almost 2,000 years (it has never changed):
1 John 1:
22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.
23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
24 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father.
25 And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
Eternal life in Jesus Christ is the Gospel of salvation. This has always been taught. Christians were persecuted for 300 years in the Roman empire before Christianity was legalized. Several Romans wrote about the Christians. The only people in the world who won’t admit it are Muslims (and, a few atheists).
When will you acknowledge the truth?
God is love. He is not hate. Islam does not teach love; it only teaches submission and denial of Jesus Christ as savior and son of God. That is its only goal: to turn you away from the only hope of salvation that you will ever have.
The purpose of eternal life is to know God the Father and his son Jesus Christ:
John 17:
3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
The creator of the world created you and me so that we may know him, not just about him, but who he really is. That is true love.
Romans 6:
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Ephesians 2:
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
We do good works because we are saved, not so that we may get saved.
Eternal life is a free gift given to those who acknowledge that they are sinners worthy of death and eternal torment, but who come to the foot of the cross and have their sins washed away by the blood of Jesus Christ.
Romans 5:
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
Jesus paid your sin debt on the cross. You owe God a debt you cannot pay. Let Jesus pay that debt for you. Come to him and be saved from your sins. You will know then that you have eternal life:
John 6:
37 All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 10:
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
8 All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
17 Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
John 10:
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.
30 I and my Father are one.
John 1:
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
John 1:
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Jesus was with God and he was God. He was always God.
John 3:
1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
9 Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
10 Jesus answered and said unto him, Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?
11 Verily, verily, I say unto thee, We speak that we do know, and testify that we have seen; and ye receive not our witness.
12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
13 And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
I repeat what I said earlier:
Ephesians 2:
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
We do good works because we are saved, not so that we may get saved. We come to God, and he makes us a new creation. Our deeds then become deeds done because God loves us and has saved us, not so that we can try to outweigh our evil deeds (which can never be done):
2 Corinthians 5:
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
I am pleading to you today to turn from your sins and turn unto God in Christ Jesus. Your good deeds will never get you into heaven.
