The Vatican, or the Pope, it seems, is working overtime to bring all religions and nations under the ancient Roman system in the name of unity or ecumenism, claiming this system is of God. In the following story, the Pope tells us it is the Holy Spirit's "task" to maintain us in divine love but the Bible does not say that at all; the Bible tells us it is the Holy Spirit's job to testify of Jesus Christ and reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness and of judgment, and lead believers into the truth of God's Word, and to glorify Christ. John Chapter 15:26, 16:1-14. Ecumenism is of the world and will lead the world's religions into a one world religious system spoken of in Revelation Chapter 13 and Christians are warned by John the Revelator to come out of this one world religious system as it is not of God. "And I heard another voice from heaven saying, 'Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities'" Revelation 13:4,5.
The Bible tells Christians not to be unequally yoked together with an unbelieving worldly religious system made up of the worlds religions that is swiftly coming together, "lest we should share in her sins" we are warned by God in His Word. What communion has light with darkness? What accord has Christ with Belial? In this text, Belial means "the lawless or worthless one." 2 Corinth. 6:14-16
VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- God can work miracles, including the miracle of Christian unity, Pope Benedict XVI told the Armenian Orthodox patriarch and 18 bishops.
"If our hearts and minds are open to the Spirit of communion, God can work miracles again in the church, restoring the bonds of unity," the pope said May 9 during a prayer service with Catholicos Karekin II, patriarch of the Armenian Apostolic Church.
Catholicos Karekin was visiting the Vatican along with Armenian Orthodox bishops from Armenia, Russia, Georgia, Iraq, Israel, Turkey, Egypt, Syria, the United States, Canada, Brazil, France, Italy and Germany.
Some 100 Armenian pilgrims from around the world joined Pope Benedict and the Armenian bishops for the midday prayer service in the Clementine Hall of the Apostolic Palace; afterward, the patriarch joined the pope for lunch.
Speaking during the prayer service, Pope Benedict looked toward the May 11 celebration of Pentecost, saying, "We will pray earnestly to the Father, asking him to send his Holy Spirit, the Spirit whose task it is to maintain us in divine love and lead us into all truth." Continued
