The pope (literally all of them) are the definition of an anti christ. They claim to be the voice of Jesus Christ on Earth, while disregarding every single thing he taught and commanded. Like to call no man your father upon this earth, and to beware of the pharisees who went around in long flowing robes. To not make images and bow down to idols, like their blasphemous pictures of some long haired, faggoty looking effeminate pictures that they call Jesus, and their Mary statues. Read Isiah, where he talks about the children of Israel baking cakes to their false God they called the queen of heaven. Which is what they call Mary. The catholic church is wicked to the core, since the day it was founded.
John Paul 2nd brought more people to Christ than all of America's evangelicals combined. Read into his works with Latin America. John Paul 2nd actively fought liberalism, socialism, and identity politics. When he died , several liberal rags wrote hit pieces against him.
Words are one thing, actions are another. Like Vigano does as a cardinal, Paul was a pope who fought to preserve the freedoms given to us by an era of true divinity.
Even oir forim name the great awakening, reflects that
That is Inanna with Babylonian origins that dates back to the 17th century BC while Mary did not give birth to Jesus till around 4 BC. They are not the same my man, google this yourself to see.
"The Church"... as in, the body of Christians, has been in trouble since he handed the keys to a human being. The Old and New testament is full of stories that showcase true human nature: we reject God. From that point.... absolute sh*tshow follows.
As Christians, we have clear instructions from Jesus: [44] But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you: [45] That you may be the children of your Father who is in heaven, who maketh his sun to rise upon the good, and bad, and raineth upon the just and the unjust. Matthew 5:44-45
This means we pray for the bad popes, the pedophiles, etc. SO hard to do, and I struggle with it every day...
There will always be bad people everywhere, even in the most sacred and holy of places, because sin never takes a rest and every human on earth is vulnerable. The only exceptions were Jesus, his mother Mary, and even his adoptive father Joseph who was given special blessings to resist temptation and sin.
Other than those 3 everyone else is going to commit sin, no matter how small, and that includes popes and bishops and cardinals and priests. Not saying it's okay, it's not, but Jesus died for our sins, past and present and future, so that we might confess those sins and follow Him once again and have eternal life. So, as my own mother says, until death, nothing is settled, and even the worst villains still have a shot at righting themselves, and we must pray for them the most.
That's your interpretation of the Bible. Whether it is a misinterpretation or not is between you and God.
Keep in mind that the the Codex Vaticanus (the best copy of the Latin Vulgate Bible, which is in practice what the Catholic church has used) and Textus Receptus (the oldest copy of the Protestant Bible but derived from the greek) can be quite different and were based on the judgement of different people (Jerome and Erasmus in this case).
Why? The Receptus was derived from the Greek, and the Vaticanus was derived from the Vulgate (which was derived from Hebrew sources). Now if you consider the Coptic and things like the Syriac church there is even more variation. I would say newer versions of the Bible tend to actually be more 'correct' because there is simply more versions of older scripts to compare against, and people have better command of ancient Hebrew and Greek.
Some of the nuance is lost in translation (for example, "our father" and "our Father in Heaven"). Sometimes in for example, in Hebrew they might have been the same word. In Greek they may have been different. Latin changed a lot from what the Romans spoke from Jesus' time to the Vulgate because of the introduction of barbarian words. Note that translation to other languages (for example English) will come with even more caveats - some of the earlier ones, for example, the King James Version, had a lot of defects. I would study the The New Oxford Annotated Bible, it's great.
Personally I would not read things so literally without studying with a Rosetta Stone. You gotta see the full picture if you are so critical of other people under Jesus' flock. I think modern versions are interesting because over time people have been able to digitize more versions of the Bible, even ancient versions, and compare them against each other. These days people do it with computers since more and more of the manuscripts are online.
And this is just the New Testament, the Old Testament has even more variation (and similarities) especially if you trace back to the Cuneiform/Aramaic and the starts of Semitic language. I think the biggest part of the modern age (last 20 years) has been the explosion of papyrus and the ability to process and translate between languages using computers, maybe the tower of babel in reverse.
Dude, actually read up and understand the Catholic faith before you start blasting lies which you know are false. We DON'T worship statues, we DON'T worship Mary, we are NOT pagans. This is the easiest stuff to research if you put 2 minutes into it.
And as for the "effeminate pictures that they call Jesus" I have no idea what you're talking about. We as the Church didn't make those images, independent artists did. And whether people choose to have them in their houses is up to them, but we don't have pictures of Jesus like that in churches, they are far more intricate than that.

I know which pagan god you are referring too.
That is Inanna with Babylonian origins that dates back to the 17th century BC while Mary did not give birth to Jesus till around 4 BC. They are not the same my man, google this yourself to see.
The first pope, Peter, was appointed by Jesus. Somehow, I don't think Jesus would have appointed an antichrist.
Exactly. Thank you for that!

I would have faith in Isaiah 55:11

Just a shill probably.
