Enemy Within Francis-Bergoglio Relaxes Church Rules On Divorce!!
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Pope Francis on Friday called for a Church that was less strict and more compassionate towards “imperfect” Catholics, such as those who divorced and remarried, saying “no one can be condemned forever”.
Francis said gays should be respected but firmly re-stated the Church’s position that there are “absolutely no grounds” to equate gay unions to heterosexual marriage.
In a 260-page treatise called “Amoris Laetitia,” (The Joy of Love), one of the most eagerly awaited pronouncements of his pontificate, Francis quoted Martin Luther King, Argentine Poet Jorge Luis Borges and even the 1987 Danish cult film Babette’s Feast, to make his case for a more merciful and loving Church.
The keenest anticipation centered on what he would say about the full re-integration into the Church of Catholics who divorce and remarry in civil ceremonies.
Under current Church teaching they cannot receive communion unless they abstain from sex with their new partner, because their first marriage is still valid in the eyes of the Church and they are seen to be living in an adulterous state of sin.
The only way such Catholics can remarry is if they receive an annulment, a religious ruling that their first marriage never existed because of the lack of certain pre-requisites such as psychological maturity or free will.

No one can be condemned forever...
Absolute heresy: No one is condemned forever, because that is not the logic of the Gospel! Anti-Catholic pope is guided not by God but the evil one! We were warned about abusing God's Divine Mercy.
God is Not Mocked!
God is merciful. Behold the third delusion of sinners!
By which an immense number are lost! The mercy of God sends more souls to hell than his
justice; for sinners are induced, by a rash confidence in the divine mercy, to
continue in sin and thus are lost. God is merciful. Who denies it? But great
as is his mercy, how many does he send to hell every day? God is merciful: but
he is also just; and therefore he is obliged to punish those who offend him. He
shows mercy; but to whom? To them who fear him. He hath strengthened His mercy
toward them that fear Him. As a father hath compassion on his children, so hath
the Lord compassion on them that fear Him (Ps. cii, 11, 13). But he executes
justice on those who despise him, and abuse his mercy to insult him the more.
God pardons sin; but he cannot pardon the will or the determination to sin.

“No one can be condemned forever, because that is not the logic of the Gospel! Here I am not speaking only of the divorced and remarried, but of everyone, in whatever situation they find themselves,” the pope said.
COMMUNION
BAN
Progressives
have proposed the use of an “internal forum” in which a priest or bishop work
with a Catholic who has divorced and remarried to decide jointly, privately and
on a case-by-case basis if he or she can be fully re-integrated and receive
communion.
Francis
seemed to embrace this view, saying he could “not provide a new set of general
rules ... applicable to all cases”, but he called for “responsible, personal
and pastoral discernment of particular cases”.
Father
James Bretzke, professor of moral theology at Boston College, said while
Francis did not explicitly give a green light for remarried Catholics to return
to communion, “the dots are pretty close together, you can connect them
reasonably easily and conclude that he is saying this is a possibility.
“If he’s
not opening the door, he is at least showing you where the key under the mat
is.”
In other
sections, Francis said young people had to be better prepared for a life-long
commitment, praised the “erotic dimension” of love within marriage and said the
Church needed a “healthy dose of self-criticism” for in the past preaching that
procreation was the “almost exclusive” reason for marriage. (Another Truth Vatican II dismantled). And Just like the bogus Novus Order new mass,
marriage has become for the most part, Man self-centered rather than
God-Centered and ultimately the reason why many end in divorce. Bergoglio as usual criticizes the traditional Sacrament of holy matrimony, he chooses to speak of Erotic sex and the 'pursuit of pleasure' between
couples as 'gift from God', and gives a Unhealthy dose of criticism in regards to procreation which tickles the ears of his youthful Newchurch audience.
