[Pope Francis extends Catholic priests' right
to forgive abortion by Tim Hume, Cristiana Moisescu and Lindsay Isaac CNN]
"Pope Francis has extended the powers of Catholic priests to forgive abortions,
making the announcement in an apostolic letter released Monday.
It continues a special dispensation granted last year
for the duration of the Year of Mercy, which finished Sunday.
"I wish to restate as firmly as I can that abortion is
a grave sin, since it puts an end to an innocent life. In the same way, however,
I can and must state that there is no sin that God's mercy cannot reach and wipe
away when it finds a repentant heart seeking to be reconciled with the Father,"
the letter states.
"May every priest, therefore, be a guide, support and
comfort to penitents on this journey of special reconciliation," the letter
continues.
"I henceforth grant to all priests, in virtue of their
ministry, the faculty to absolve those who have committed the sin of procured
abortion..." Full text:

That's a bald faced lie...
Oh, he didn't mention the bill?
He will (Jud
11).
Forgiveness comes by God's grace (Luke
7:42) not an antichrist (Matt.
24:4-5,
24) in a Dagon fish god hat.
"The pope needs to know that priests cannot forgive
sins because the Bible declares that God is the only one who can forgive sins
(Mark 2:7). In fact, the Pharisees, not knowing that Jesus was God, accused Him
of blasphemy when He forgave the sins of a paralytic (Luke 5:21)..."

I won't even entertain your childish comment.
Mk 10:15
Forgiveness is based on Christ's shed blood (Heb.
9:22).
Gee, I didn't know that!
It is God's nature to forgive (Ps. 86:5). It is
your pope's nature to lie (Gal. 1:6-12).
We are saved by grace alone (Eph 2:8-9), through faith
alone (Eph 1:13; 2Ti 1:10), in Christ alone (Isa 45:21,22; 59:16; Ac 4:12).
Roman Catholics deny this (Jude 1:11).

We're ...Priests being able to forgive this sin is nothing new...
Did they make you feel better?
Trust in them, you'll die (Jud
11). Trust in the Lord, you'll live (Ro
8:14).
The Lord appointed them!
That's why they're raping little boys (Mt
7:20).
You can trust in them and die a second death (Re
20:14) or you can trust in the Lord and live (Matt.
12:17–21).

That's a sick twisted lie.
You trust in wicked idolators (Jud
11
).
I do not (Ro
8:14).

Anti Catholicism is probably the last prejudice...
We hate lies and deceit (Jud
11).
We're supposed to (Pr
8:13).
rocketman
The pope lacks the authority to extend any right to forgive.... The pope is
a mere man, only God forgives sin. No person comes to forgiveness with God
except through His son Christ. Just nonsense...

24:47).

Well, I suppose such a statement "Jesus loves me" allows you to join in,
slandering another person's religious beliefs...
You'd prefer never being corrected in
your error?

Why would you ask a sinner for forgiveness?
