I turned the tv on this morning to catch the local weather before leaving
to come to work,  and was really quite amazed that not a single station
that we can get,  had any local news/weather.   EVERY station was consumed
with the funeral / services of the pope.   Seems the whole world has
stopped for this. Flipping thru the channels I caught bits and pieces of
some of the commentary - and began to think about how it's really something
-  the way all of the news media and governments have been increasingly
down on Jesus' Name,  the Nativity scene at Christmas,   The
CROSS..............everything that has to do with The Lord Jesus Christ -
The Son of The Living God.............

Yet,  here were the commentators discussing the rituals the 'faithful' were
doing,  discussing JESUS ,  showing THE CROSS with Jesus on it, talking
about the bread and wine offerings and how the bread actually becomes the
Body of Jesus,  how the Holy Spirit actually comes upon you  when you
partake of these.............and I've noticed the comments from many well
known prophetic teachers / prophets - how everyone has built  this MAN up
SO HIGH.

Don't get me wrong - I KNOW that our Lord LOVED / LOVES John Paul II,   and
ALL catholics, protestants, and every other denomination - teachers,
preachers and layman - and I know that pastors, teachers, prophets deserve
respect,  but something just doesn't seem right here.........pray the Lord
help me in my understanding if I am being critical ,  but it seems more and
more apparent that the whole world is truly being set up for something they
have NO CLUE of...........
