Pope Francis has sought to alter the ‘Our Lord’s’ prayer in the bible.
The pope said that the Roman Catholic Church should adopt a better translation of the phrase “lead us not into temptation” in the “Our Father”, the best known prayer in Christianity.On the FishEaters Forum (link in the sidebar), I just had this exchange with a fellow member,
SaintSebastian Wrote: The wording he is proposing is how the Church has always understood the meaning, but why not just remind people that is what is meant, rather than changing the words as they have been handed down?
Because this way, he's changing the very words of Our Blessed Lord in Holy Scripture, at least as the Church has received them from St Jerome's translation, and the Anglophone Church from the Rheims New Testament!
Quote:The Gospel Arccording to St Matthew, Chapter 6, Verse
et ne inducas nos in temptationem sed libera nos a malo (St Jerome's Vulgate)
And lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from evil. (Challoner Revision of the Douai-Rheims)
I've been saying for years that those who want to destroy the Church (HAH! Good luck with that!), like Francis, have adopted a tactic from the Trotskyite communists, the concept of 'permanent revolution'. Keep the revolution going with new prayers, new translations of the Liturgy, new devotions, etc., so that the Faithful find it more and more difficult to discern the True Divine and Catholic Faith amid the revolutionary verbiage.
Oh, you have said a big Truth here.
ReplyDeleteIt is right out of some Communist manifesto or Socialism creed or something, keep peppering them with things and pretty soon, they can't keep up and you overwhelm them. This is why he shoots his mouth off every day, tinkers with things and just generally makes a huge annoyance out of himself. It's not for nothing! Everything is part of the plan, and it's going pretty swimmingly. For him. "It's FUN to be pope!" he crowed, at the beginning of his rotten papacy. All that lovely POWER, and oh, the changes you can make, the pokes in the eye to those traditionalists you hate, even, change the Words of Jesus Himself, well it's not like he's a believer.
Another reason for this ridiculous solution in search of a problem, is that it creates more division, and Satan loves division, it is his stock in trade. Some will pray it this way and some will pray it that way, from then on, NO MORE UNISON IN THE LORD'S PRAYER, OUR MOST FUNDAMENTAL CHRISTIAN PRAYER. There will be uncomfortable laughter, but it will be avoided, as the division will make Christians uncomfortable.
The man is evil. God help us.
