When I first started seeing headlines that claimed that Pope Francis said that “Muslim terrorism does not exist”, I thought that it couldn’t possibly be true. After all, who could possibly deny that Islamic radicals are engaged in terrorism? Within the last 30 days, there have been 127 Islamic terror attacks in a total of 25 different countries. And in 2016 global terror attacks set an all-time record high and were up 25 percent from the year before. Unfortunately, there are many world leaders that are so politically correct and that are so married to the idea that Islam is good that they cannot admit to themselves that radical Islamic terror is being fueled by radical Islamic beliefs. And in the case of Pope Francis, he is exceedingly careful never to say anything negative about Islam because it would greatly hinder his efforts to bring all of the major religions of the planet closer together.
To say that “Muslim terrorism does not exist” is such an outrageous statement that I needed to get solid confirmation that Pope Francis actually said these exact words. And I got that confirmation from the official Vatican website…
The other is a reflection that I shared at our most recent World Meeting of Popular Movements, and I feel is important to say it again: no people is criminal and no religion is terrorist. Christian terrorism does not exist, Jewish terrorism does not exist, and Muslim terrorism does not exist. They do not exist. No people is criminal or drug-trafficking or violent. “The poor and the poorer peoples are accused of violence yet, without equal opportunities, the different forms of aggression and conflict will find a fertile terrain for growth and will eventually explode.”[7]There are fundamentalist and violent individuals in all peoples and religions—and with intolerant generalizations they become stronger because they feed on hate and xenophobia. By confronting terror with love, we work for peace.
According to Pope Francis, if Islamic terrorists were simply given “equal opportunities” we could solve the problem of global terror once and for all.
What in the world is he thinking?
The truth is that some of the wealthiest nations on the entire planet such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar are funding and arming radical Islamic groups all over the globe.
And often the primary targets for radical Islamic terrorists are Christians and Christian churches. For example, just consider what just happened in Uganda…
Several weeks ago, we reported how Muslims attacked a Christian church during services in Uganda. They locked the Christians in the church and then attacked them, raping 15 women, kidnapping several and beating the rest. The story made international headlines.
Well in a recent story, the local news media in Uganda has tried to whitewash what happened, saying that it was a ‘mania’ that broke out after Christians praying for the return of an ‘unnamed prophet’ got mad when the supposed ‘prophet’ did not appear.
In the meantime, Christians in the area have continued to receive threats from the Muslims, and the local pastors are reporting seeing Muslims at night walking close to the church where the attack happened while brandishing weapons.
According to Pope Francis, if each of those Muslims was given a good job, a nice house, a Honda and a 401K plan they wouldn’t want to commit those types of attacks any longer.
And I bet that we are supposed to believe that Islam had nothing to do with the following attack in an undisclosed location in north Africa…
He told WND the background: The girl was attacked by “fanatic Muslim men and woman” while walking home from school, dragged to a nearby home and subjected to “brutal female genital mutilation.”
She was left in a coma.
After local physicians had given up and declared her dead, she suddenly sat up.
The girl described how her soul “left my body and I was dead.”
“Angels came to receive me to heaven. But Jesus appeared before me and said, ‘I cannot turn back from the prayers of my children. My eyes are upon my children and ears are open to their prayer. So I give you your life back, for the issues of death belong to me. You go, and be my witness.’ Then he put his face right against and right into mine. He breathed into my nostrils, and my soul went in. Then he moved his nail-scarred hands over my body and healed me completely!”
What an incredible story!
Stories such as this one need much more publicity, but the mainstream media and politically correct leaders such as Pope Francis avoid them like the plague because they don’t fit the narrative.
To the global elite, Islam must always be portrayed as good, because it is going to be a key player in the coming one world religion.
Another essential element of globalism is an unshakeable belief in man-made climate change. In the same speech that I referenced above, Pope Francis once again affirmed his stance that global warming is an extreme danger to humanity. Here is more from the official Vatican website…
First, the ecological crisis is real. “A very solid scientific consensus indicates that we are presently witnessing a disturbing warming of the climatic system.”[6] Science is not the only form of knowledge, it is true. It is also true that science is not necessarily “neutral”—many times it conceals ideological views or economic interests. However, we also know what happens when we deny science and disregard the voice of Nature. I make my own everything that concerns us as Catholics. Let us not fall into denial. Time is running out. Let us act. I ask you again—all of you, people of all backgrounds including native people, pastors, political leaders—to defend Creation.
Ever since the very beginning of his papacy, Pope Francis has been pushing for global unity in religious matters, global unity in economic matters and global unity in political matters. The following timeline of events comes from one of my previous articles…
May 2016: Pope Francis welcomed one of the top Sunni clerics in the world to the Vatican, and he reportedly told the cleric that “our meeting is the message“. And mainstream news outlets all over the planet clearly understood what was being communicated. For example, the Daily Mail article about this meeting was entitled “Pope embraces grand imam at historic Vatican meeting in a bid to bring the Catholic and Muslim churches together“.
January 2016: The Vatican releases an extremely disturbing video in which Pope Francis declared that all of the major world religions are “seeking God or meeting God in different ways” and that ultimately “we are all children of God”. The video also featured leaders from various major religions, and they are shown declaring fidelity to their particular gods. First, we see a female Buddhist cleric tell us “I have confidence in the Buddha“, and that is followed by a Jewish rabbi declaring “I believe in God“. As the video goes on, a Catholic priest announces “I believe in Jesus Christ“, and last of all an Islamic leader boldly declares “I believe in God, Allah“. If you have not seen the video yet, you can watch the entire thing right here. After watching that video, nobody can deny that the Vatican is openly promoting a one world religion.
November 2015: Pope Francis declared that fundamentalism, even Christian fundamentalism, is a “sickness” during remarks in which he stressed the similarity of the major religions.
September 2015: Pope Francis traveled to New York City to deliver a speech that kicked off a conference during which the United Nations unveiled a “new universal agenda” for humanity.
September 2015: During a stop at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Pope Francis stressed the unity between Christianity and Islam. These words were directly spoken by him…
I would like to express two sentiments for my Muslim brothers and sisters: Firstly, my greetings as they celebrate the feast of sacrifice. I would have wished my greeting to be warmer. My sentiments of closeness, my sentiments of closeness in the face of tragedy. The tragedy that they suffered in Mecca.
In this moment, I give assurances of my prayers. I unite myself with you all. A prayer to almighty god, all merciful.
July 2015: During a trip to Ecuador, Pope Francis spoke of the need for “a new economic and ecological world order” in which the wealth of the planet is “shared by everyone”.
July 2015: Pope Francis denounced global capitalism and refers to its excesses as the “dung of the devil“.
June 2015: Pope Francis called for “a new global political authority” that would have the resources necessary “to deal with the world’s economic problems and injustices”.
October 2014: Pope Francis publicly embraced the theory of evolution by making statements such as these…
-”When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so.”
-”The Big Bang, which today we hold to be the origin of the world, does not contradict the intervention of the divine creator but, rather, requires it.”
-”Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.”
By fully embracing the theory of evolution, Pope Francis has aligned himself with the leftist social engineers that are seeking to merge humanity into a socialist new world order, and he has aligned himself against “fundamentalists” that believe that there is one true God that created the heavens and the earth.
June 2014: For the first time in the history of Catholicism, Pope Francis authorized “Islamic prayers and readings from the Quran” at the Vatican. In ancient times, this would have been considered blasphemy, but today nobody really even notices when something like this happens.
March 2013:
During his very first ecumenical meeting as Pope, Francis made it very clear that he believes that Christians and Muslims both “worship the one God”…
I then greet and cordially thank you all, dear friends belonging to other religious traditions; first of all the Muslims, who worship the one God, living and merciful, and call upon Him in prayer, and all of you. I really appreciate your presence: in it I see a tangible sign of the will to grow in mutual esteem and cooperation for the common good of humanity.
The Catholic Church is aware of the importance of promoting friendship and respect between men and women of different religious traditions – I wish to repeat this: promoting friendship and respect between men and women of different religious traditions – it also attests the valuable work that the Pontifical Council for interreligious dialogue performs.
The evidence very clearly shows that Pope Francis is a globalist, and the globalists are absolutely convinced that this planet could be transformed into some sort of great progressive utopia if they could just get humanity to unite.
But when they are finally able to achieve their goal, it won’t be a utopia at all. Instead, it will bring about the greatest tyranny that humanity has ever experienced, and this is something that I talk about in my latest book.
Whenever you deny the truth, you open yourself up for deception.
And everyone out there that chooses to believe that Islam has nothing to do with terrorism and that all religions are equally valid paths to the same God is opening the door wide to great deception.
In this day and age, it is imperative that we all learn how to think for ourselves and to boldly speak the truth – even if that means disagreeing with the Pope himself.

I feel a deep sense of revulsion when I hear the Pope speak, just as I did with Obama. Impersonaters & imposters who portray themselves as something they clearly are not. They exemplify hypocrisy in their words & actions. I pray for others to have the discernment to see that these men cloak themselves in lies. I continue to be amazed, sadly so, at the number of people, including people to be Christians, that are deceived by these agents of Satan. May God & His people be able to eliminate this deception from these Christians’ lives before the Day of Judgement.
When the Pope came to speak to Congress last September he said “I come in my own name”. You can Google the transcript. How telling!!!
Incredibly sad that Catholics in China have to warn that this “man of God” (Not!) Pope, may turn them into the Communist. http://www.christianpost.com/news/pope-warned-against-betraying-chinas-underground-church-175723/
The Pope, like Obama, is an agent of Satan.
I was was born into Catholicism, and saved out of it 25 years ago. I can’t thank God enough that I am free from this mess!
Thank you so much for this article. Thank you for standing for truth. This globalist message is truly from the pits of Hell. It will continue to be pushed until it consumes the whole world. Christians who take a stand against it will eventually have to lay down their lives for the truth of the gospel. I pray to God that we are ready. If the pope were a true Christian, where is the message of salvation, where is the message of repentance and one way to the living God through his son Jesus. Instead he tries to “love” others into heaven. Peace on earth without God, never going to happen.
This particular man, Jorge Bergoglio, is the latest of a series of men, within the office of the papacy. The papacy is an office. If this pope did not meet with the approval of the Jesuit General, who has controlled the papcy since 1814, he would be dead. John Paul I was killed within 33 days. He was planning major changes to the Vatican Bank, cleaning it up, so he was removed. Pope Pius XI was just about to sign an encyclical denouncing race hatred, on the eve of the Vatican created “Second World War”, and he was poisoned. The unsigned encyclical was found on his desk and his corpse in the bed.

If he didn’t, he would be dead. The office of the papacy is controlled. The RCC is a top down system of compulsion and control. It is anti Jesus Christ, Who said “ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free”. The RCC battles might and main against those who respond to the true Christ Impulse, they are at war with Jesus Christ by persectuing and murdering those who believe in Him. Who Are the Greatest Haters in the World – wwfar.com wwfar.com/inquisitionupdate/darryl/WhoAretheGreatestHatersintheWorld.pdf The RCC considers the popethe replacement of Christ on earth. Please read these Jesuit papal maxims, and you will see that the institution is profoundly and intrinsically anti-christ. Ex Jesuit priest Alberto Rivera called the RCC a “prophetical mystery”. It is the fulfillment of Revelation 17 and 18, including that the whore of Babylon has many daughters. The… Read more »
Thanks for sharing these interesting points Lisa.
My honor to do so. Thank you for appreciating the the truth!
I can add one more simple fact. The reality is so dense. Pius XI, who was murdered before he signed his encyclical condemning racism, on the eve of WWII, was replaced by Cardinal Pacelli, who had negotiated the Vatican’s concordat with Germany. It’s a small world after all! Pacelli was black nobility whose family had served the Vatican for centuries. Early on in his career, Pope Pius XI told Pacelli that he knew he that Pacelli would be the next pope. That prediction wasn’t psychism, it was all planned. The Vatican plans very far in advance. Their plans are not directed by men, but by the fallen spirits of darkness, which communicate through certain human vehicles, to the Jesuit General and they see very far in advance.
This pope Francis is not an accident, that is my point. The Vatican speaks out of two sides of its mouth, and it is important to understand “pope speak”.
Blessings Lisa. You have MUCH truth and wisdom on this subject – thank you for sharing. After connecting some of the dots myself, I found it very revealing that the Jesuits came into being in 1534 in direct opposition to the Protestant Reformation which began in 1517 after Martin Luther posted his ’95 Theses’. Millions of ‘true’ Christians were murdered at the hands of the Jesuits and RCC because they wanted to retain their growing power and influence throughout the world while deceiving the masses through their counterfeit Christianity.
I have found this video about the Jesuits to be very interesting for those that might be interested: https://youtu.be/ypRb8Z3dMRs.
Thanks for your research Lisa. Fr. Malachi Martin was a Jesuit priest and Vatican iinsider who was murdered for revealing too much in his last book “Windswept House” and what he was planning to reveal. There are some interesting last interviews he did with Art Bell on You Tube.
Pastor Tom Horn believes that the final deception will have to do with aliens who will be welcomed by the Vatican and they will bring us a new understanding of the Gospel. There is a reason that the Vatican has this large and very sophisticated observatory on Mt Wilson in Arizona. It includes a special system to record the invisible infrared spectrum called the Lucifer instrument. It is constantly observing a stream of alien activity he claims. Of course, he knows it is actually demonic activity.
I am gobsmacked, just when you think you have heard it all. Crazy seems to be the new normal. God help us…
For those of us who were raised Catholic and still have beloved family members trapped in the RCC It’s hard to watch how far down this man made religion has descended to. Most Bible believing Christians know that the RCC is doctrinally bankrupt and is false. But for (the Cardinals) them to elect this man to lead them just shows how aloof and out of touch with the Scriptures they are……..it’s so sad to see it.
Catholicism is not a man-made religion. It is the original Christian faith tracing its lineage back to the Apostles. Please do not confuse the religion with unfaithful priests/pastors. Note that the genuine is always most attacked.
The original Christian church was in existence for 300 years before Catholicism. The Christians were persecuted during this time until Constatine decided to legalize Christianity. Then they had a big meeting( can’t remember the name but can easily look it up) between the state, other religious leaders, and Christian leaders. Out of this , came the formation of the Catholic Church. It’s structure greatly resembles the structure of Roman government.
If you research the history, you will find that it is not the original church and has a lot of man made religion in it.
Most likely you are correct. The error most roman catholics fall into when claiming the r.c. church is the original christian faith tracing its lineage back to the apostles is that of apostolic succession. In other words they claim Peter the apostle was the first bishop of Rome and all other Popes “descended” or better put, followed in succession after him. Problem is, where is the biblical evidence Peter ever was in Rome? The r.c. church also claims the bible verse …..”you are Peter and upon this “rock” I will build my church” as proof that the line of Popes continued on from apostle Peter. However even a casual perusal of words used in this passage shows two different Greek words used for Peter(petros) and rock(petra). Proper rendering of the verse shows the wordage indicates the Lord referring to the “true christian church” is to be “built” on the bedrock of truth that Peter proclaimed “you are the Christ, Son of the living God” and NOT on a the mere mortal man apostle Peter.
Jerry rig you are right! And peter had a wife too! God Bless everyone here!
for Susan….most of what you say is interesting….but for your info….type this in when you search…RICK WARREN ACKNOWLEDGES CHRISTIANS AND MUSLIMS WORSHIP THE SAME GOD….this is the rick warren of today……..a false teacher, but uses Jesus and in other teachings sounds great……….also type in POPE FRANCIS SAYS ALL MAJOR RELIGIONS ARE PATHS TO SAME GOD…….I only put it in caps to get your attention……….we are close to the rapture of the church, and end time events starting……….I do not believe with the world events taking place today, that we will get past 2021 before the 7 year tribulation starts but time will tell and we will see, if I understand the times we are in…but watch out for the year 2020….some of the men of God I trust, see the financial collapse by the end of that year, and terrible world events by the end of that year, and some will come before that…………just for your info
He clearly serves Satan. I pray for those who are still deceived by the Catholic church to awaken from their slumber. Absolutely, he is a part of the coming Great Deception.
Susan he is the first Jesuit pope. Do some research on them and it will make more sense.
A good article, but more to the point, the reason Pope Francis does not want to say anything negative about Islam goes deeper than what you think. He holds his position because the ultimate goal of the Vatican and the Pope is to UNITE all religions under the banner of roman catholicism, much like a hen gathering her “chicks”. And clearly stated in their own material is the way in which they expect to accomplish this, through INTERFAITH DIALOGUE. Horrific as it may seem, true bible believers need to REALIZE and WAKE UP! to the truth of what the roman catholic church teaches about the Muslim religion. The Pope and his church teach that the christian God and the Muslim God are one and the same. (ridiculous since the Muslims do not believe in the triune godhead). The roman catholic church teaches clearly and plainly that Muslim ARE INCLUDED IN GODS PLAN OF SALVATION. The lynchpin of this belief is based on their erroneous assumption that both christians and muslims both profess the same God and faith of Abraham. A good website for more study on this matter is from a former roman catholic priest Richard Bennett at bereanbeacon.org. Bennett though not “prophetic” understands fully the roman catholic teaching having come out of it and is now a reformed Baptist.
Thanks for recommending bereanbeacon.org. I have bookmarked it and look forward to checking it out.
