Hey Catholics, what do you think about the popularity of your pope when Jesus said a true man of God will not be accepted?

But are Catholics really Christian?

[Pterodon]

Thank you!

[sage2021]

I don't know why you send me your questions and you Democrats and you Catholic's because I am NOT a Democrat or Catholic!

[Pterodon]

I don’t

[Chazmatazz269]

I think you’re misinterpreting something. Cite the scripture.

[Pterodon]

I just did.

[Chazmatazz269]

Nope. You wrote words and claimed that it’s in the bible. A citation indicates the book, chapter and verse.

[Pterodon]

I can tell you haven’t read the Bible. It’s in Matthew. Research yourself. You might learn a few things

[Chazmatazz269]

I’ve read multiple bibles and King James multiple times. Your refusal to cite your source is a strong indication that you are completely full of sh*t. Either cite your source or admit to trolling.

[GothEgg]

Matthew 16:18: “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church.”

[Pterodon]

What’s that got to do with the question. Besides didn’t Peter betray Jesus three times and the first churches were formed by Paul. Funny how you point to that scripture but nothing else in the Bible

[GothEgg]

Denied jesus try times. The first churches were formed in Judah.

What’s this got to do with your pope and calling him holy?

[Pterodon]

And his popularity?

[GothEgg]

Your question never mentioned popularity

[Pterodon]

Yes it does. A true man of God will not be accepted

[GothEgg]

Popularity and acceptance are not the same word, though they are closely related and sometimes overlap.
Popularity means the state of being well-liked, admired, or widely known by a large group of people. It is often about public attention, status, or being in demand.
Acceptance means the general agreement that someone or something is right, valid, or suitable, or the act of welcoming someone into a group. It is about belonging, validation, or being tolerated and valued rather than adored or famous.

[Pterodon]

No it means beloved in this sense. Look what they did to Jesus

[GothEgg]

Perhaps go get yourself a dictionary and read the bible

[Pterodon]

I have plus grew up in the church

[GothEgg]

So what is your Christianphobic question?

[Pterodon]

How is your pope a man of God when he’s beloved by millions? Didn’t Jesus say a true man of God will not be accepted?

[GothEgg]

Was Jesus and John the Baptist not true men of God?

In Matthew 16:19, Jesus entrusts Peter with the keys of the kingdom of heaven, which symbolize his primacy in governing the Church in Christ’s name. Similarly, Jesus singles out Peter in praying that his faith “may not fail,” so that he can confirm his brethren (Luke 22:31-32). Also, in John 21:15-17, Jesus commands Peter to “feed my sheep,” further affirming his responsibility to lead his fellow Christians faithfully. As the successor of Saint Peter, the pope carries on this apostolic mission, ensuring unity in the Church’s teaching and protecting the Faith from error (see John 14:6; 17:20-23).

[Pterodon]

You’re missing it. A true man of God will not be accepted. He isn’t a true man of God

[GothEgg]

Which specific quote do you refer too?

[Pterodon]

You can’t be this stupid

[GothEgg]

So you concede you dont know what you are talking about

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

They don't care. They believe in that Catholic BS from hell.

[Cidknee]

A man of the world. Satan's world.

[Cidknee]

To be popular among the flock is natural.

[Pterodon]

A flock I don’t think I want in
