Pope Francis Calls for Epochal Change: ‘Rigidity Conceals Derangement’



ROME — Pope Francis has underscored the need for the Church to embrace “epochal change,” insisting that resistance to change always hides some mental disorder.

The pontiff also quoted from the Italian novel Il Gattopardo. “If we want everything to remain as it is, everything must change.”

“We must start processes and not occupy spaces,” he said. “God manifests himself in a historical revelation, over time. Time begins the processes, space crystallizes them. God is found in time, in ongoing processes.”


Martin Luther was right???

Martin Luther was right???

Martin Luther was about taking power away from the church and giving it back to God. I can't see that is what Francis is trying to do here, I may be wrong though.

It is not Mary, the Priest or the Pope that intercedes for us. It is not the function of the church.

Hebrews 7:25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.

Romans 8:34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.
