The liberation fever that triggered the French and Russian revolutions evolved into an epidemic that turned many churches into centers for the conversion of worshipers into adherents of a world infected with Marxism. This Christ-denying creed invaded even the Rock – the Apostle Peter – chosen by Jesus Christ to be the foundation for his Church. It is now, however, being run by a hierarchy at odds with Christ’s teachings.
Faithful Christians are wondering why the present occupant of the Seat of Peter is AWOL from his job of proclaiming and promoting the teachings of Jesus Christ, desperately needed in today’s morally crumbling world. Was the pope, like many other pastors, lured by Liberation Theology into abandoning his faith? Did he not notice that Christianity and Marxism don’t mix because they are incompatible, that making them merge is impossible? Did he fail to see the critical difference in each of the core principles? Was he, like multiple church leaders, duped by the big lie that Marxism and Christianity are equivalent?
Such mindlessness persists at the Vatican, whose hierarchy act — I must say it — as though the mission of the church is to liberate Christians from Christianity.
Reduced to essentials, “liberation theology” teaches that there is no such thing as sin. You are therefore good with God when you follow the State, as if you are following God, and support whatever “makes a difference,” whatever that means in today’s morally mixed-up world. But Christ never said give all to Caesar; he reserved a principal portion for God.
Looking beneath its rhetoric mantle, the “updated gospel” is a roadmap to a world run by Godless men. Those at the World Economic Forum are a good example. Leaders like that would trash the world, including its inhabitants, to have their way. The projected subhuman, unnatural, God-free world of such men is a product of profound ignorance regarding reality and human life. This coincides with a hatred of God and His Creation. Whatever their “better world” might be called, its real name should be Hell on Earth.
The arrival of such a world would be good news to the morally and mentally brainwashed, which could indeed make people love such a man-made paradise — the way the stubbornly defiant Winston Smith (in Orwell’s 1984) came to love Big Brother after his will was at last broken and his mind thoroughly washed.
