IF YOU ARE WATCHING USA TV NEWS, YOU WILL HAVE SEEN THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF USA CITIZENS ADORING THE POPE; PRETTY WELL AS THE FANS OF ROCK STARS OR MOVIE STARS.
YES, A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE THE EVER INCREASING ROMAN CATHOLIC POPULATION IN THE USA.
AND HERE IS A POPE, FROM A HUMBLE BACKGROUND, STILL ACTING HUMBLE; HERE IS A POPE WITH A GREAT FRIENDLY SMILE; HERE IS A POPE THAT IS YES VERY LIKEABLE.
HERE IS A POPE THAT SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO TOUCH THE HUMAN HEART.
SO IT IS AROUND THE WORLD; CERTAINLY WITH ROMAN CATHOLICS, HE IS LIKED, HE IS LOVED. AND IT ALL CROSSES AGE LINES, FROM THE YOUNG TO THE OLD.
HE IS CHARISMATIC, HE IS CHARMING, HE IS FRIENDLY.
NOW..... ADD TO THIS A POPE OF SUCH LIKE, AND HE CAN DO MIRACLES ALSO!!
YOU HAVE THEN A MAN WHO HAS 1. 2 BILLION FOLLOWERS OF THE CHURCH HE GUIDES. FOR THEM, AS ONE USA TV STATION SAID, THE CLOSEST THING TO GOD ON EARTH.
SOME CATHOLICS WOULD SAY THE POPE IS GOD ON EARTH. AND HE DOES NOT MIND BEING CALLED "HOLY FATHER" - PRETTY WELL CLOSE, AS CLOSE AS SAYING "GOD ON EARTH."
SO THINK OF A MAN, THE RELIGIOUS LEADER OF 1. 2 BILLION PEOPLE, A MAN WHO COULD DO MIRACLES, AND HAVE A GOOD CHUNK OF THE EARTH'S POPULATION AT HIS FEET.
PUT THE WORLD INTO A PHYSICAL AND ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL SITUATION, WHERE A STRONG GUIDING HAND IS NEEDED.... AND ..... A GOOD CHUNK OF THE EARTH'S POPULATION WOULD SAY, HE SPEAKS FOR GOD, HE IS GOD ON EARTH, HIS GUIDING INFLUENCE MUST BE CORRECT, MUST BE THE RIGHT THING TO DO; AND SO DOING IT WOULD INDEED COME ABOUT.
PUT ALL THAT INTO A CONTEXT WHERE YOU HAVE A GREAT POLITICAL/MILITARY MAN, ALSO SIDE BY SIDE WITH A MIGHTY POWERFUL RELIGIOUS LEADER, AND...... WELL READ THE BOOK OF REVELATION!
