Pope Francis and President Obama met in Secret for Almost One Hour
U.S. President Obama drove into St. Peter's Basilica today in his presidential motorcade. His SUV was adorning both the U.S. and Vatican flags as he came to meet with Pope Francis at the Vatican in what is sure to be both a historical and prophetic meeting.
All meetings between popes and presidents are historical in nature because they are unquestionably the two most influential world leaders. And any decision, policies, or agreements they make will automatically have far reaching geopolitical implications and consequences.
Several news outlets described that President Obama introduced himself to Pope Francis with the words: “It is a great honor. I’m a great admirer.Thank you so much for receiving me.”
Up until the end of this last century it would never have been considered a great honor for the "Pontifex Maximus," a title used by ancient pagan Roman Emperors now applied to the Pope, to be embraced by a United States President. Our Founding Fathers rejected the European model of church and state. They rejected the concept of having either a king or a pope in America. They understood that the union of church and state ultimately results in persecution for minority groups. That is why the constitution guaranteed and codified freedom of religion and separation of church and state.
But today our U.S. President is embracing new modern ideas and the "secular state" is now seeking the favor and approval of the church. And after taking several photos together from more than 100 plus photographers and video cameramen, the Pope and President excused themselves to have what was to be a "private" meeting for 30 minutes.
The media described that the talks between the two world leaders was going to be centered around contraception, abortion, gay marriage, poverty, peace efforts, and other issues that are happening around the world.
Surprisingly though, the private meeting between President Obama and Pope Francis lasted up to almost one hour. They came out smiling and exchanged more pictures and some gifts. Even though nothing was said to the media, the Associated Press did however publish a statement made by the President that gives us some insight as to what may have been discussed and what was President Obama's attitude during the private meeting:
“Given his great moral authority, when the pope speaks it carries enormous weight...He can cause people around to the world to stop and perhaps rethink old attitudes and begin treating one another with more decency and compassion.” Associated Press, March 27, 2014.
What are some those "old attitudes" that we must rethink? Could that be the freedom of religious liberty guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution? Only heaven knows what was really discussed. But one thing is certain - we are entering the final apocalypse and something much more sinister is happending that we can ever imagine.
Time will tell what the results will be, yet prophecy has already declared through its inspired writings that we are living in the days when persecution, chaos, natural and man made disasters will increase more and more. These events will culminate into the implimentation of the mark of the beast.
All the signs of the times are being fulfilled. "These have one mind [political leaders], and shall give their power and strength unto the beast [church power]." Rev. 17:13.
