P. 3
“Concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.
For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For
when they say, ‘Peace and safety!’ then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains
upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape” (1 Thessalonians 5:1–4).
July 7: Pope Meets with U.S. Televangelists
Just before his untimely death, Tony Palmer led a delegation
of Evangelical leaders to Rome to meet with Pope Francis,
including prominent televangelists James Robison and
Kenneth Copeland. The meeting and luncheon lasted almost
three hours. While there, they proposed signing a “JOINT
DECLARATION OF FAITH IN UNITY FOR MISSION” on the
500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s 95 Theses in 2017! The declaration encourages “Christians to act
and pray together across the world, in spite of their differences,” all in the name of unity.
July 22: Pope Picks Council to Promote Global Christian Unity
This significant event actually escaped most headlines, but Pope Francis named an international list of
eight individuals to serve on an elite council to promote Christian unity worldwide. His move to unite the
Christian body is growing stronger and more rapid—like labor pains.
August 22: Pope Approves Use of Military Force
During a news conference, Francis was asked explicitly: “Do you
approve [of] the American bombing?” He responded, “Where there
is an unjust aggression, I can only say this: It is [allowed] to stop
the unjust aggressor.”
September 4: Pope Asked to Head United Religions
Organization
Former Israel president Shimon Peres elevated the Catholic leader
as a central figure for world peace. Traditionally, Jewish leaders have
felt the papacy has been compliant to anti-Semitic movements. Peres
called Pope Francis “a more powerful peace advocate” than the United
Nations! Then on October 25, Jerry White, the U.S. Deputy Assistant
Secretary of State, called for a “global covenant of religions” with the
pope at the head.
October 27: Pope Declares Faith in the Big Bang and Evolution
The Big Bang, which some scientists believe led to the formation of the universe some 13.8 billion years
ago, was all part of God’s plan, Pope Francis has declared. The pope also said biological evolution is
compatible with the Bible creation. Of course, if the theory of evolution were actually true, the Sabbath
and the Great Controversy would be meaningless ideas.
“Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes
first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above
all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing
himself that he is God” (2 Thessalonians 2:3, 4).
