American Catholics Should Fear Unity with the Eastern Orthodox. By COGwriter. Pope Francis has made ecumenical unity one of the major themes of his papacy. That goal is not new. One of the goals of former Pope Benedict XVI was to secure a greater unity between the Church of Rome and the Eastern Greek Orthodox Church. Many within the those churches regard such unity favorably, while others are gravely concerned about ecumenical unity. What most Roman Catholics seem to believe is that unity with the Greek Orthodox will simply mean that the Eastern Orthodox Catholics will accept the authority of Rome and the two groups will be back to relatively full union. But that is not what certain of the Orthodox have in mind. Furthermore, because of what is supposed to happen because of such ecumenical unity, it appears that this will result in the destruction of the Anglo American nations such as the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand. Catholics and Orthodox Need to be Concerned About Compromises Related to Reunification. Notice carefully the following Catholic prophecy Frederick William Faber died 1. Antichrist.

That prophecy, which is in a book with an official imprimatur from a Catholic bishop as well as others, suggests that there soon may be a change to the Catholic religion that will make it the religion of the final Antichrist. This change will not seem to be a contradiction, but it will be a new religionlike a new order within the Catholic religion. Likely one involving interfaith compromise see also Will the Interfaith Movement Lead to Peace or Sudden Destruction. While some Catholics are concerned that a change to their faith will occur, even Orthodox and others should also be concerned about this. Here is one reason why from a Catholic source Venerable Bartholomew Holzhauser 1. Great Monarch, and by the authority of the Holy Pontiff, and by the union of the most devout princes, atheism and every heresy will be banished from the earth. The Council willbe believed and accepted by everyone Dupont, Yves. Catholic Prophecy The Coming Chastisement. TAN Books, Rockford IL, 1. Hence, an ecumenical council is prophesied to eliminate atheists and others who will not believe in a religion that will use the power of some coming Great Monarch. Also notice the following warning from a Catholic nun Anna Katarina Emmerick October 1, 1. The Church is in great dangerThe Protestant doctrine and that of the schismatic Greeks are to spread everywhere. I now see that in this place Rome the Catholic Church is being so cleverly undermined, that there hardly remain a hundred or so priests who have not been deceived. They all work for the destruction, even the clergy. A great destruction is now at hand. April 2. I saw that many pastors allowed themselves to be taken up with ideas that were dangerous to the Church. They were building a great, strange, and extravagant Church. Everyone was admitted in it in order to be united and to have equal rights Evangelicals, Catholics, sects of every description. Such was to be the new Church Dupont, pp. Various events around the globe suggest that people of many faiths are getting to the point where they are likely to accept some type of ecumenical religion. Pope Francis also is compromising with some of the Protestants and others see the article BewareProtestants Going Towards Ecumenical Destruction As far as some changes affecting Protestantism, watch the 2. Charismatic Kenneth Copeland and Anglican Tony Palmer Protestants Beware Should you be concerned about the ecumenical movement. But also notice something that happened in 2. Pope hopes 2. 01. Reformation anniversary will encourage Christian unity. May 6, 2. 01. 5Pope Francis says he hopes the 2. Reformation, as well as a joint document by the Lutheran Catholic commission for unity, will further encourage steps for Christian accord. The Pope was referring to the Lutheran Catholic unity document, From Conflict to Communion during a May 4 private meeting with Church of Sweden Archbishop Antje Jackelen. Francis said he hopes this initiative will encourage further steps toward unity, with Gods help, and our collaboration with Him and one another, Catholic News Agency reported. On December 1. 8, the general secretary of the Lutheran World Federation, Rev. Martin Junge, said relations between the Lutheran and Catholic churches have reached an epoch making turning point. He spoke during preparations in Rome for the 5. Protestant Reformation in 2. Lutherans and Catholics are expected to cooperate in an act of Christian unity. Pope Francis said at his meeting with Archbishop Jackelen that Christians seeking unity should not be afraid to broach potential areas of disagreement such as marriage, family, and sexuality. All Catholic faithful are invited to take up, recognize the signs of the times, the way of unity for overcoming divisions among Christians, the pontiff said during his audience with Jackelen. He said division is not only in opposition to the will of Christ, but is also a scandal to the world and causes damage to the holiest of causes the preaching of the Gospel to every creature. Born in Germany, Jackelen is the first female head of the Lutheran church in Sweden, and the nations first foreign archbishop since the 1. So the Church of Rome is striving for unity with the Lutherans, continues to want to work together for 2. Church of Sweden and discussed unity. While, on the surface, some Roman and Eastern Orthodox Catholics will like that, consider, for example, some of the anti Christian beliefs of the woman, Antje Jackeln, who is the primate Bishop of the Church of Sweden Jackeln has published several works which deal with the relationship between the natural sciences and religious faith, as well as the role of religion in modern society. Jackeln doesnt believe in the virgin birth of Jesus. She has said that the virgin birth is a mythological term or a metaphor rather than an actual event. She endorses the theory of evolution and sees no contradiction in believing both in God and in evolution. She supports same sex marriage in church, while calling for the state to support the institution of marriage as such. Antje Jackeln. Wikipedia, accessed 0. The Bible is clear that Jesus was born of a virgin e. Matthew 1 1. 8 2. Virgin Birth Does the Bible Teach It, that God created all life see Genesis 1 Exodus 2. Is Evolution Probable or Impossible or Is Gods Existence Logical, and that homosexual relations are an abomination Leviticus 1. The Bible Condemns Homosexuality. Antje Jackeln is also married to a man. And while the Bible does endorse that bishops get married, the Church of Rome does not endorse that see also Was Celibacy Required for Early Bishops or Presbyters. Furthermore, the Bible specifies that bishops are to be males 1 Timothy 3 1 5 Titus 1 5 7. The Bible does not endorse the ordination of women, but men. To accept females as bishops is clearly in contrast to what the Bible teaches information on female religious roles can be found in the article Women and the New Testament Church. This also goes against the teachings and traditions of both the Roman and Eastern Orthodox Catholics. Perhaps this would be a good time to also mention some of the differences between the Orthodox and the Church of Rome that one or both will have to compromise on for unity to occur. Here are several such differences 1. The Eastern Orthodox reject the Roman Catholic notion of purgatory Ware, T. The Orthodox Church.
