A Catholic delegation, consisting of three US Catholic bishops and other church representatives, met with senior White House officials on November 17, 2023, to discuss the Pope’s message as outlined in Laudato Si’ and Laudate Deum prior to the start of COP28, according to The Tablet, a Roman Catholic news agency. According to the report, White House officials were “receptive” and took these faith leaders very “seriously.”
The Tablet reported the following:
• “Three U.S. Catholic bishops and the head of a conference of women religious, met with Biden administration officials Nov. 17 to discuss the Catholic Church’s priorities for what Pope Francis has called ‘our suffering planet’.” [1]
• “Leading members of the delegation included Archbishop John C. Wester of Santa Fe, New Mexico; Bishop Edward J. Weisenburger of Tucson, Arizona; and Bishop Joseph J. Tyson of Yakima, Washington; along with Sister Carol Zinn, a Sister of St. Joseph of Philadelphia and the executive director of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious, which represents 302 U.S. religious congregations, who went to the White House to share their concerns in advance of COP28, the United Nations climate change conference held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.” [1]
• “The delegation spoke with the White House’s John Podesta, senior adviser to the president for clean energy innovation and implementation; Ali Zaidi, national climate adviser; and John McCarthy, senior adviser for political engagement.” [1]
• “We’re men and women of the church,” Bishop Weisenburger told OSV News. ‘And we echo what we find in Scripture, consistent church teaching — and brought into beautiful focus by Pope Francis in Laudato Si’ and Laudate Deum— that this is not just a scientific matter or issue. This is a theological and spiritual matter.” [1]
• “He [Catholic Bishop Weisenburger] found the Biden administration’s representatives receptive to that message.” [1]
• “Ellis [a member of the Catholic delegation] was impressed by ‘how seriously the White House took these faith leaders’.” [1]
The Vatican and the US are forming a new alliance, and it is very concerning to see the two superpowers of Bible prophecy—the US and Rome—uniting to advance the Pope’s agenda. It’s official now. The US and the Vatican will work together on a shared vision—to promote the teachings of Rome in our nation and the world, exactly as Revelation 13 predicts. Three Catholic social teachings that are enshrined in the Pope’s message are the common good (a new just global order), ecological conversion (Sunday laws), and a universal fraternity (the three-fold union of apostate Protestants, Catholics, and spiritualism). These encapsulate the main points taught by Pope Francis.
Brothers and sisters, the handwriting is on the wall. In light of Bible prophecy, in light of this historical collaboration, in light of the dangers against true religious liberty, and in light of the law of God that becomes desecrated by the exaltation of papal falsehoods, Protestant America is truly becoming “an image of the Roman hierarchy” (Spirit of Prophecy, vol. 4, p. 278).
What will be next? Inspiration reveals what comes next:
“Protestantism shall give the hand of fellowship to the Roman power. Then there will be a law against the Sabbath of God’s Creation, and then it is that God will do His ‘strange work’ in the earth” (Bible Commentary, Vol. 7, p. 910).
In any event, prophecy indicates that such public expressions of affection for Rome by our political leaders will continue to escalate until our lawmakers ultimately repeal the US Constitution.
“Our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and Republican government and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near” (Testimonies, Vol. 5, p. 451).
“Political corruption is destroying love of justice and regard for truth, and even in free America rulers and legislators, in order to secure public favor, will yield to the popular demand for a law enforcing Sunday observance” (Last Day Events, p. 129).
The Second Coming of Christ must indeed be at the door because we are seeing things today that were unimaginable only a few years ago. The restoration of the papacy to its former glory is a fulfillment of Bible prophecy. The healing of the deadly wound can only take place when the United States enforces the doctrines of Rome by law.
“And he (USA) exerciseth all the power of the first beast (papacy) before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.” Revelation 13:12.
How will the healing of the deadly wound be completed? How will Rome’s temporal power be restored to its former prestige? This will happen when our nation begins to implement the Pope’s agenda by law. And the Biden Administration appears to be in full alignment with Pope Francis’ vision.

Even though Joe Biden is Catholic, Protestant America will fully align itself with the papacy.
Joanne says
It already has…

Great article. But you’re confusing the healing of the wound with the making of the image to the beast. They are two separate and distinct events.
John Hudiburgh says
I appreciate Advent Messenger. Hear and read a lot of news but only here did I get the news about three bishops visiting the White House on November 17 to meet with US officials re the pope’s agenda.

Amen good article

The real problem of course, is that America is no longer Protestant, according to the true definition of the word. Thus our continued repudiation of the Protestant or biblical principles which the nation was built upon. If the deadly wound suffered by the first beast of Revelation 13 was the papacies loss of power as a result of the French Revolution, then the healing of that wound would certainly entail the papacy regaining such power. That power was the support of the kings or governments of this world. Without question then, the papacies ever increasing influence upon the governments of this world, these United States especially, is in fact the healing of her deadly wound. Our government making an image to that beast, representing the final stages of recovery, and a resurrection as it were of the papal beast of prophecy again. The wound being healed, when the woman (Babylon), is once again firmly seated upon the governments of this world. Riding them where she will. The beast she rode was, the period in which it is not is coming to its end, as the time in which it yet is has come upon us.
Rev 17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: 2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. 3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: 5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. 6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration. 7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. 8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
Robert King says
Rev. 13:3
And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
The first wound was to the Pius name line in 1798 with taking into captivity(verse 10) and dying in captivity in France in 1799. The healing of the name line was when the next pope chose the name Puis VII.
