Pope’s Retreat Preacher Speaks on Antichrist as a “pacifist, ecologist and ecumenist”
Pope Benedict XVI is on his lenten retreat this week. He has chosen Cardinal Biffi to be the retreat master. Here are a few interesting segments from his talk, as reported in the Lifesite article linked below:
“The 78-year-old cardinal added that if Christians “limited themselves to speaking of shared values they would be more accepted on television programs and in social groups. But in this way, they will have renounced Jesus, the overwhelming reality of the resurrection.” “
“The cardinal said he believes that this is “the danger that Christians face in our days … the Son of God cannot be reduced to a series of good projects sanctioned by the prevailing worldly mentality.”"
I have seen many links to this today, as the type of information in the talk is rarely heard in this age. Cardinal Biffi is an expert on the AntiChrist and has remarked in the past that he believes that the AntiChrist is alive today as you read this.
See the Lifesite article here. See the Zenit article on details of the talk here. And the original Radio Vaticana link here (Italian). The Zenit article is terrific.
