Francis On Ecumenism: “We Cannot Take Different Paths” - Is He Speaking About the Church?

“We cannot ask others to be united if we ourselves take different paths,” Francis says in a May 31 message for an ecumenical prayer movement of the Anglican Canterbury Archbishop Justin Welby, a layman.
Francis “desires greatly” that “we, as Christians, can be more deeply united as witnesses of mercy.”
He asks the Spirit “for the gift of unity,” because “only if we live as brothers and sisters can we spread the spirit of fraternity.”
According to Francis, the Holy Spirit has “infected” the world on Pentecost with life. Apart form the infelicitous metaphor, the world doesn't care about the Holy Spirit and divine life.
Before raving about "united paths" with Anglicans, Francis should fix his own deeply divided Church, rather than furthering divisions among Catholics.

charisma present living pope Benedict XVI has laied down the path for every heretical anglican layman, whether called pope or waiter, to return to Mother Church. Dr Taylor Marshall may exemplify such conversion...

@Rafał_Ovile' , thanks for the amendment.
I still wonder whether it is appropriate to call the head of the Anglican Church "a layman".

I agree there cannot be multiple paths to God because all these paths contradict each other so therefore only the catholic church which began with the apostles has and is the fullness of truth, but because this conversation has been started by francis then obviously all religions are regarded as one and any religion that contradicts that so called "one" is now regarded as a different path especially …More

Yes, this may be a preamble to the next step of enforcement of the agenda of Bergoglio to enforce his Bergoglian neo-catholicism.

Blessed Maria Serafina Saw Martin Luther in Hell… In 1883, Sister Maria Serafina Micheli (1849-1911) (who was beatified in Faicchio in the province of Benevento in the diocese of Cerreto Sannita 28 May 2011), the foundress of the Sisters of the Angels, was going to Eisleben, Saxony, the birthplace of Luther. The fourth centenary of the birth of the great heretic (10 November 1483) was celebrated on that day.

The streets were crowded, balconies included. Among the many personalities were expected at any time, with the arrival of Emperor Wilhelm I, who presided over the solemn celebrations.

The future Blessed, noting the great hoopla was not interested in knowing the reason for this unusual animation, wanted to find a church and pray to be able to make a visit to the Blessed Sacrament. After walking for a while, she finally found one, but the doors were closed. She knelt on the steps for serenity prayer. As it was in the evening, she had not noticed that it was not a Catholic church, but Protestant. While praying, the angel appeared, who said to her. “Arise, because it is a Protestant church” Then he added: “But I want you to see where Martin Luther was condemned and the pain he suffered as a punishment for his pride.”

After these words, she saw a terrible abyss of fire, where they were cruelly tortured countless souls. In the bottom of this hole there was a man, Martin Luther, which differed from the other: it was surrounded by demons that forced him to kneel, and all armed with hammers, they tried in vain , to shove a big nail in the head. Religious thought, if some of the people had seen this dramatic scene, they would not have made honors and other commemorations and celebrations for such a character.

Later, when the opportunity arose to remind his sisters live in humility and in secret. She was convinced that Martin Luther was punished in hell especially for the first deadly sin of pride. Pride is a deadly sin, brought him open rebellion against the Roman Catholic Church.His behavior, his attitude towards the Church, and his preaching were crucial to encourage and bring many souls to eternal ruin

Perhaps he's speaking about the Latin Mass within our Church. He's a master of such ambiguity.

You must also reject him as an Antipope.

According to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Bergoglio "is no longer in full communion with the Catholic Church" which declares to all priests the obligation to adhere to the belief that all Anglican orders are invalid.

la verdad prevalece elbow from the 7 year exemplification of gaslighting potentially rigid sheep he doesn't aspire for communion with those rigorous rubricists from Catholic Church. Let the argentinian catechism fully flourish and not 'proselytize' anyone against own will... Then the fruits will be judged...
la verdad prevalece
Bergoglio blasphemed the Holy Spirit by defying all Catholic doctrine and by refusing to call sinners to repent, leading them to commit the sin of presumption, has led sinners to obstinate themselves in mortal sin and has led them down the path of final impenitence. .

Why read something, which is obviously not Catholic and could be damaging to your faith?
