Comte de Sats Germain on Nostr: The inherent pride of the position of pope is no different than the pride of a bishop ...

The inherent pride of the position of pope is no different than the pride of a bishop believing he is special by virtue of apostolic succession. Sin isn't greater or lesser ; sin is sin. Its error. Jesus said to call no man "teacher." An organized church on earth with a hierarchy is Antichrist, same as a human full of pride is Antichrist. Your saints were correct in pointing out the error of the pope, but incorrect if they didn't simultaneously point out the same error in their own church. Furthermore, if error in your own reasoning drives reasonable people *away* from Christianity (and it surely does), then you are making yourself a false prophet. Likewise, if a church's dogma is against the pursuit of reason and direct knowledge.

Its difficult to point out an error in a kind way, but it is meant with kindness. I try to write in a direct and efficacious way, with trust that the reader doesn't hear hostility in it. 🙏
