Pope approves same-sex blessings - SHAME ON YOU POPE!!!

 Pope approves same-sex blessings - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com Just in time for Christmas, Pope Francis approved the blessing of same-sex couples “without any type of ritualization or offering the impression of a marriage.” At the sametime, the Pope double talked and reasoned out his previous declaration saying “The doctrine regarding marriage does not change, and the blessing does not signify approval of the union.” The Pope is considered by Catholics as having “full, supreme, and universalpower over the whole church, a power which he can always exercise unhindered (Catechism 882).” As the Vicar of Christ (in other words, Christ’s supreme representative on earth), the Pope has authority to interpret scripture in his own way. So sin is now blessed. It would appear, however, that the Pope is a little confused, possibly proving that he is not the supreme authority Catholics believe him to be. In March 2021, the same PopeFrancis approved a response to the question “Does the Church have the power to give the blessing to unions of persons of the same sex?” The answer was essentially “NO.” In the long-worded response, the bottom line was: “the blessing of homosexual unions cannotbe considered licit. This is because they would constitute a certain imitation or analogue of the nuptial blessing invoked on the man and woman united in the sacrament of Matrimony, while in fact there are absolutely no grounds for considering homosexual unionsto be in any way similar or even remotely analogous to God’s plan for marriage and family.” The response concluded: “the Church does not have, and cannot have, the power to bless unions of persons of the same sex in the sense intended above.” Well, all that changedjust days before Catholics are to celebrate one of the highest holy days, the Blessed Mother Mary giving birth to Christ. Supreme Authority Pope Francis now asserts a difference between a liturgical blessing and a pastoral blessing. Vatican News tries to explain: “When seeing them from the perspective of popular piety, “blessings should be evaluated as acts of devotion.” Those requesting a blessing “should not be required to have prior moral perfection” as a precondition, the Declaration notes.” The Declaration callsit blessing “irregular couples.” Christ said in Matthew 19:4-5, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female and said, ‘On account of this a man will leave the fatherand mother and be joined with his wife, and the two will become into one flesh’?” But Catholics believe that church tradition and the holy scriptures are equal. Therefore, via the Magisterium of the Catholic Church, the Pope and his designees have the supremeauthority to interpret the word of God “whether in written form or tradition.” Never mind that the scriptures say that homosexuality is abomination to the Lord. And Hebrews 13:8-9 says, “Jesus the Christ is the same yesterday, and today and forever. Be notcarried about with divers and strange doctrines.” I guess supreme authority means you can change the word of God with the times. Just saying.
