Evidence for God from Science

You've probably seen the Google advertisement: The Bible reveals next and last Pope will be a devil impersonating John Paul II...

Puritan Lad once used the term 'Chicken Little eschatology'. It springs to mind here. What a lot of eisegesis...

Eisogesis only begins to cover it.

Male Bovine Fecal Matter may be more to the point.

Interesting. This kind of stuff usually doesn't come out until early March. I'll keep my eyes pealed.

PL, are you talking about the article or the Male Bovine Fecal Matter?

I don't see any distinction between the two.

I read some where, that there would only be 112 Pope's, id this true?
And also the Pope now is 111?

Hello Phoney,

In response to your last two posts here in this section, I wouldn't be too keen on datesetting, regardless of your position. Many have tried it over the centuries, and have been rather embarassing to the Christian Faith. There have been calendars, astronomical signs, numerologies, Bible Codes, etc., and all have proven to be wrong.

In any case, if you read through this section enough, you will find that I am a postmillennial preterist, meaning that I believe that the Bible has very little, if any, direct prophecies concerning current events. Therefore, I would not look to the number of popes, Inca calendars, or any of the like as a sign of the end.

thanks PL, I do not necessarily believe in these things as signs but being a christian only 5 years I have read many books that have the alure for someone like me who does not have the training and knowledge of you and others here. So keep me straight.

Do'nt be a Russelite! For there is no one who knows not the day nor the hour except my father!

I'd be leary of taking anything advertsied on Google very serioisly.

Nevertherless, the Prophecy of St. Malachy from the Middle Ages, suggests the next after Bennedict will be "Peter the Roman" and he will be the last Pope.

"Prophecy from St. Malachi?" And Peter the Roman? Please clarify what and who you mean. Are you talking about the book of Malachi in the bible, and St. Peter?

I might not have the spelling right, but no...nothing to do with the last book of the Old Testament.

This was a prophecy made by a Catholic priest in the Middle ages who was later sainted concerning the sucession of Popes. All the recent Popes have had some trait to connect them with this prophecy.

Perry Stone of the Voice of Evangelism Ministries goes into quite a bit of detail about it in one of his books on "Unusaul Prophies Being Fullfiled"...Volume 3, IIRC.

So do you think Peter was the first pope?

My wife is catholic and that is what she says....


I just say oh ok.

The disciple Peter was not the first pope,that is the hijack by the Catholic church to deceive.
