percussionlover -> THE POPE'S VISIT TO THE USA... (4/20/2008 3:12:02 PM)

it's really awesome to see the pope's visit the last 3 days here in the states & especially todays mass in yankee stadium..i'm pentacostal & the mass moved me.
this is something you have to remember too which i find fascinating & awesome...........every catholic pope/bishop/priest etc...has had hands laid upon them by Jesus himself.
what i mean by that is::::: apostle Peter was the 1st pope/priest of the catholic church & Jesus laid His hands upon peter & blessed him & then apostle peter laid his hands on the next priest and so on and so on etc....so you can see that every catholic pope/bishop/priest has had Jesus hands laid upon them......
just something to think about since no other christian faith can really say that.....
an awesome thing to think about.

I was curious what the Pope was going to have to say about scandal in the Church, the state of the American Church and about foreign affairs and issues.

As usual, I found his comments reflected a wisdom and grace unavailable to many who also participate in these matters, including US Bishops and Cardinals, and George H. W. Bush.

Please continue in THIS THREAD to discuss the Pope's visit, THIS ONE to discuss apostolic succession, or THIS ONE to discuss the Papacy.

Closing this thread.


Thanks!
