Bergoglio and sin: falling is not important
A) The text of the speech by J.M.Bergoglio:
“Jesus can give you true passion for life. Jesus can inspire us not to settle for less, but to give the very best of ourselves. Jesus challenges us, spurs us on and helps us keep trying whenever we are tempted to give up. Jesus pushes us to keep our sights high and to dream of great things. You might say to me, “but Father, it is so difficult to dream of great things, it is so difficult to rise up, to be always moving forwards and upwards. Father, I am weak, I fall, and I try but so many times I fall down”. Mountaineers, as they climb mountains, sing a very beautiful song whose words go like this: “in the art of climbing, it is not important that you do not fall down, but that you do not stay down”. If you are weak, if you fall, look up a little for there is Jesus’ hand extended to you as he says: “Get up, come with me”. “And if I do it again?” Also. “And if I do it again?” Also. … Do you understand? [Yes!] (Welcoming ceremony by the young people of WYD – Jordan park, Błonia, Kraków -Thursday, 28 July 2016)
B) References to Scriptures:
“Yahweh spoke to Moses and said: ‘Speak to the whole community of Israelites and say: Be holy, for I, Yahweh your God, am holy.‘” (Lev 19:1-2)
“You must therefore be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.” (Mat 5:48)
“Do not allow yourselves to be shaped by the passions of your old ignorance, but as obedient children, be yourselves holy in all your activity, after the model of the Holy One who calls us, since scripture says, ‘Be holy, for I am holy.’” (1Pe 1:14-16)
“Jesus again straightened up and said, ‘Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?’ ‘No one, sir,’ she replied. ‘Neither do I condemn you,’ said Jesus. ‘Go away, and from this moment sin no more.’” (Joh 8:10-11)
“After a while Jesus met him in the Temple and said, ‘Now you are well again, do not sin any more, or something worse may happen to you.’” (Joh 5:14)
Once again Bergoglio distorts the true teaching of Jesus on holiness, forgiveness and mercy. Bergoglio teaches a false doctrine that is not of God, leading people to sin in the false belief that Jesus always forgives. But the Gospel unmasks Bergoglio and his false mercy.Bergoglio exploits the theme of the need to not be discouraged even when facing a fall, to have everyone, particularly young people, lower their alert level and abandon themselves to sin.
First consideration. Jesus invites and encourages everyone to be saints. Jesus said: «Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect» (Mat 5:48). The Lord even in the Old Testament, speaking to Moses, said: «Speak to the whole Israelite community and command to them: Be holy, because I, the Lord, your God, am holy» (Lev 19:1-2).
Second consideration. Jesus forgives sinners that repent and that want to do everything possible, with all their strength, to sin no more. On this issue Jesus was clear and, in the Gospel, many are the episodes that confirm what is the true mind of Christ in this regard. Jesus did not condemn the adulteress, but said to her: «Go and sin no more» (Joh 8:10-11). Jesus, on another occasion, while healing a person, said: «you are healed; sin no more, so that something worse does not have to happen to you» (Joh 5:14).
Instead, Bergoglio once again tries to propose the theme of his false mercy, that leads to not be strong in facing temptation but to surrender to sin, deceiving everyone making believe that Jesus always and anyway forgives everything to everybody.
Who wants to be saint, must follow the teachings of Christ and flee from the deception of Bergoglio and of all those joined to him, because they are destroying the authentic Christianity and are teaching a new doctrine that moves away from the true God and leads to the abyss of darkness, where eventually all those who follow Bergoglio will inexorably fall and many will have no longer the strength to rise again.
