Iraqi Cardinal Knows More Than Jesus Christ

Baghdad Cardinal Louis Sako's "god" will "not ask whether we are Shia Muslims or Sunnis, Catholic Christians or Orthodox, but will judge according to "our concerns" and "what we have done for our brothers" (AsiaNews.it, 14 November).

Sako claimed this in front of Christians, Muslims, Yezidis and Sabaeans. One wonders where Sako's "god" has revealed this theory.

He is convinced that only his indifferentism can guarantee "peace" and "security" - as if wars were fought for religious reasons.

In contrast to Sako's "god", the one and triune God has revealed that his Son, prince of peace, is the only way that leads to him. Christ says about himself: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6).

Probably why he is a Cardinal?

John 8:24-25 ‘’That is why I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins.” So they said to Him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “What I told you from the beginning.’’

John 8:24-25 ‘’That is why I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I AM, you will die in your sins.” So they said to Him, “Who are you?” Jesus said to them, “What I told you from the beginning.’’

These words are for those who heard the Gospel and saw the miracles not the others.
Those who are refusing the Gospel will not be saved as stated in Mark 16: 15-16 :

‘’and he said to them, `Having gone to all the world, proclaim the Gospel to all the creation; he who has believed, and hath been baptized, shall be saved; and he who has not believed, shall be condemned’’.

We must leave the Jugdment to God. He will decide to whom the Gospel had been properly announced.

John 8:24 "If you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins." Frightening verse.

Sadly, a Bergoglio's cardinal, and also of the 2VC.

I'm willing to bet that a good 5 year old Catholic knows more about the faith this this man

this man is NOT catholic... period (and as an heretic, he is not part of the Church... the Church is ONLY for Catholics)

It might as well have been Bergoglio speaking. Sounds like same garbage he would spew from his "pontifical" mouth.

I am always suspect of people who confidently proclaim what God will and won't do. To paraphrase Henry Miller, we should stop talking about God, and start talking to God in hopes He may steer our hearts and souls from going adrift.

Whenever an apostle teaches, he must carefully choose his words. What he says must not make it seems that he rejects the elements he omits to mention, I agree, but saying something like ''you will be judge on what concerns you and all your deeds'' is a very good statement or a very good start!

About what Cardinal Sako said:
In the context of addressing other religions there is more than a simple omission but rather bad choice regarding the strategy to address them because it contradicts the ordre de mission that the Lord has given the apostles and their successors; all bishops and priests.

For instance, this ‘’mission’’ does not ask the Catholic Clergy to cheer up other religions, on the contrary. The apostles must convert them because it is God’s Will and He said so!
This verse: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" doesn’t mean that members of other religions will not be saved.

Even if many will be deprived from the benefit of Salvation in Hell, the fact that the Work of Redemption is for everyone and that the Son of God suffers for all men and that His Blood is shed for all (in vain for many), is strongly et repeatedly affirmed in the Divinely inspired Holy Scriptures:

1 Timothy 2:5-6 “For there is one God, and one mediator of God and men, the man Christ Jesus: Who gave himself a redemption for all, a testimony in due times”.

1 Timothy 4:10 “... we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.”

John 1:29 “Here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world”

1 John 4:14 “And we have seen and do testify that the Father has sent his Son as the Savior of the world.”

There is also this explicit verse and here the Holy Spirit makes things very clear:

1 John 2:2 "He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

Yeah... like did we 'concern' ourselves with serving Christ the King, the Son of God?
