“ Distracted or confused ”
Our day suffers from smudged concepts of what a Christian is. There are only two groups of peoples in this world, the ones for Christ or ‘in Christ’, and those against Christ, say the enemies of the cross. However, the 21ts century endorses a larger category incorporating the backsliding Christian, the nominal Christian, the carnal Christian, the none-committed Christian, the worldly Christian, the separate brethren, and now, the ‘Pagan Christian’ as all belonging to the first group above. However, Philippians 3:18-19 defines the enemies of the cross as those ‘whose end is destruction’. The enemies of the cross are not Christians who act like ‘pagan Christians’; they are simply NOT born again. ‘Whosoever commits sin is the servant of sin, and is of the devil’ “Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision. For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.” By the way people apply these truths, we might identify who speaks from Christ’s fold and who doesn’t. “Mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample, for many … are the enemies of the cross of Christ” Advice from any outside of the fold of Christ should not entertain our speculations, or consume the space of our instruction.

“ Great Sermon! ”
Pastor Sean ur so right!!!! We're so quick to Judge or question someone's salvation. If we stayed in the Bible and lined ourselves up with the words and promises within it we'd be so suprised how different we'd see ourselves muchless others. Staying faithful and exposed to Old Time Preaching and actually applying it to our lives is the key. God will do the rest. I personally just got right with God back in Sept. and hitting local revivals and being at my own church everytime the doors is open is keeping me on fire. I've deleted Facebook and become addicted to sermon audio during the week. I love what y'all are doing on here pastor sean and look forward to the future topics and all the past sermons I'm currently looking up. Thanks

“ thankful ”
The Lord uses ANYTHING or ANYONE He chooses to convey truth, (ie Balaam, his donkey, Nebuchadnezzar Daniel 4:34&35, many demons proclaimed/announced the Christ and/or His apostles). The pope's salvation isn't the question. Did he speak truth, and a truth I praise God that has pricked my heart. I was on fire. However from seeing "Christian's" ignoring biblical teachings, to financial worries and being taken out of my comfort zone, I confess (no pun intended) I feel luke warm. The worst part is sometimes it doesn't even bother me. Please, please pray for me. Pray for all those being deceived into misplacing value.

“ Explanation ”
When I said the Pope was lost I meant as we all are apart from Christ until He saves us. Jesus says in the gospel of John in ch 3 that if we have not believed we are condemned already. Jesus also spoke several parables that give the picture of an unconverted person as a lost sheep, lost coin, and a prodigal. In that since the Pope is lost. Whether he is one of the elect, I can't say that. If he dies holding on to his false doctrine not repenting then that can be said about him. I stand by my statement that he is an antichrist based on what John says in I John. The teaching based on the council of trent that whoever believes that salvation is in Christ alone apart from works let him be accursed. He has not recanted from that. Galatians is plain that Christ + works = anathema not the other way around. I can find some truth in many religions and cults. That is what makes them credible to unbelievers. The issue is a heretic who claims to speak infallibly to Christ people. If I go to church on sunday and pastor preaches a messaged based on a message from the pope and does not repent, I am outta there seeking a new place to worship. May God have mercy on us and grant us to stand for His truth no matter what the cost. I believe intense persecution is around the bend.

“ A Response ”
1. It would be wonderful if those commenting would include an email address so more correspondence could occur. 2. I doubt anything I say will be acceptable unless I were to repent and recant. 3. No one knows whether the Pope is lost or not. While we may suspect he is a hell-bound sinner because of his leadership of this false church whether he is elect of God is known only to God. 4. At this point no one can say the Pope is the 'Anti-Christ.' That is pure speculation. You may call him 'anti-Christ' if you are referring to many anti-christs but to say he is a member of the unholy trinity of the beast, dragon and anti-Christ is simply speculation until more unholy fruit is manifest. Every pope has been the 'Anti-Christ from some people's perspective. 5. Finally how can I quote from someone without considering the person? The Apostle Paul did. In Titus 1.12 Paul quotes from a false prophet. This poet or prophet is a sinner--an unbeliever--a idolater and rebellion against God but he was right when he said or wrote 'Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.' And the Pope is right when he quotes from the Word of God in Philippians 3:18 in CONTEXT. If tomorrow the Pope were to say Christians need to be kinder--more loving--charitable I would agree.

“ Careful now ”
Just what Allie said . Great deception in these last days and many Christians seem to be falling for Pope Francis's charm offensive . Losing you Sean ! How can we focus on the words and not consider out of whoms mouth they were spoken.

i agree totally with you,Allie!

“ No ”
The Pope is lost. He is an unbeliever. Sir, you ask for comments so I share. I am hesitant since you are an Elder and I do not want to give the appearance of rebuking an Elder. I think that if the Pope makes a statement and we then proclaim it and make application to our lives than we are affirming him to be the Vicar of Christ when he is not. The Pope does not even see that he was speaking of himself. A pagan claiming to be a Christian. Our society wants to know what the Pope thinks and says. Who cares? He is an Antichrist. He is to be exposed and ignored. Satan can transform himself into an angel of light and speak truth. We see that when he tempted Christ in the wilderness. Christ did not dialogue with him and tell him he was speaking truth, He rebuked him exposing his use of scripture inappropriately and for his own purposes. When the Pope speaks I shall not look to redeem what he says and apply it to my life. It dishonors Christ, the sufficiency of scripture, and dishonors all those who lost their lives for not regarding the papacy. Thank you kindly.

“ Great Sermon! ”
Frightening, sobering, but very relevant! Thank you for digging uncomfortable truths out of news that would be easy to overlook.
