On June 17, 2021, Pope Francis participated in the 109th meeting of the International Labor Conference, a specialized agency of the United Nations. The International Labor Conference establishes and adopts international labor standards and is a forum for discussion of key social and labor issues. The Pope addressed the international trade union through a video and said that our world is going through an “extensive challenge” at this “crucial moment in social and economic history.” [1]
Pope Francis highlighted that during this “persistent crisis” we must exercise “special care” to secure the “common good.” This, according to Francis, means avoiding “consumerism” and “nationalism.” [1] Then the Pope made the following astonishing statement on property rights and the universal distribution of goods:
“But in any case, these capacities of entrepreneurs, which are a gift from God, should be clearly oriented towards the development of other people and overcoming poverty, especially through the creation of diversified sources of work. Always, together with the right to private property, (Fratelli tutti , b. 123). Sometimes, when we speak of private property, we forget that it is a secondary right, that it depends on this primary right, which is the universal destination (distribution) of goods.” [2]
Private property is a universal fundamental right. The fact that Pope Francis is a Marxist and a globalist is no reason for him to impose his views on the world. If private property is a secondary right, then the protection of property would not be enshrined in God’s moral law: “Thou shalt not steal” (Exodus 20:15) and “Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s” (Exodus 20:17).
Pope Francis addressing the International Labor Conference.
Private property is absolutely necessary for personal freedom. In fact, the Constitution of the United States protects private property in the Fifth Amendment when we are told that no one will be “deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.” [3]
Pope Francis’ words on this subject must be understood in the context of how Marxist revolutionaries have used wealth redistribution to justify the theft, looting, ruin and death of millions of people. Pope Francis is echoing the same sentiments of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky. Today we have Karl Marx dressed in papal garb sitting in St. Peter’s throne and he wants to redistribute OUR wealth and OUR private property.
Why doesn’t Pope Francis give away all the wealth and property that Rome possesses? There is great wealth within the Catholic Church, including priceless works of art, vast amounts of real estate around the world, gold, cash reserves, major shares of stock in global companies, and, of course, Vatican City. If the Pope is sincere, he would start by giving all of that to the poor and the homeless before lecturing us.

Our Lord was so meticulous and precise in dividing up the land among the the children of Israel according to tribe. He also made ample provision for the property to be retained by the rightful owner , even in times of poverty, during the jubilee. I chose God’s way over any human way. Anyone who is not on God’s side, by default is on Satan’s side, no matter how sweet and wonderful and altruistic they sound.
So true. It’s when Israel was enslaved in Egypt that they desired to have their own land. Unfortunately, only enslaved people are not allowed to own anything. The promised land, Canaan, was a symbol of freedom and the land belonged to Israel because Abraham had purchased it. Sadly, Rome wants to bring us back into the Babylonian captivity where we won’t own anything.
Why does the POPE”s dope give brainwashed folks such a good feeling and high? The nicest and most expensive buildings and properties in most all of 3rd world countries the papacy owns. The Great Whore steals from the poorest of people, even going so far to charge for indulgences and blessings pandered by the corrupt priests. Every time this agent of Satan opens his mouth, I get nauseous. One of the greatest deceivers and liars of all time. If you want to know the truth about anything this liar says, believe the OPPOSITE of what this Con Artist is bleating.
Why was it that Israel went into babylonian captivity?
Because the nation was not strictly separated from the babylonian wine, presented them since entering the land. This babylonwine of false teaching, lies, idolworship with according deeds enslaved them first and then God send Nebukadnezar to seize their land and property.
The same now?
The christian world has departed from Gods word, law and testimony and now Nebukadnezar(Francis) is coming.
But, this wasn´t and isn´t the end of Israel!
There is a remnant, there´s a true Israel of God, there are people:
……..remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Is this judgement to avoid? Answer yourself!
Isa 8,16: Bind up the testimony, seal up the law in my disciples!
Isa 8,20: “To the law and to the testimony!” – if they do not speak like this, there will be no dawn for them.
there will be a: remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Why did you write st. Peters throne??
Because the RCC believes that they are the ‘successor’ of Peter. That they possess authority because it was handed down to them from Peter who they claim was the first ‘Bishop’ or leader in the church.But Acts 12:17; 15;13; 21:18 makes James the one presiding over conferences, the one consulted, and who received missionary reports.
By their claim they show that they are not of God because Jesus came as one who served not ruled as one would do who claims to be a successor of leadership sitting upon a throne. Do an image search using the words ‘papal throne’. The pope does sit on a throne; simple or elaborate doesn’t matter because it is still a throne. The pope also claims the prerogatives of God: absolution/pardon of sin, judgment and condemnation of those they deem heretics, creative power(Eucharist), God’s name; “Father” Matthew 23:9. Just to start with. Not to mention the brazen assault done by the RCC to God’s Ten Commandments: by deleting the second commandment (image worship) and splitting the 10th shifting the fifth commandment into the position of what had been the fourth which places the honor your father and mother into the category of our relationship with God; the first table of stone. So who is the father and mother the RCC wants you to honor? It is not necessarily your biological or adopted parents… No! It is the priest (father /padre) all the way up to the pope and Mary who they claim intercedes on our behalf (not Jesus)…hence the prayer, “Hail Mary, full of grace” and other similar prayers. There are other things they believe they can do and God Almighty has to abide by their decisions…their ruling…
And they have done all of this because they claim to be the successor of Peter.
They sit upon his throne…
Our Father in Heaven has promised to us, a home on the Earth-made-new.
This present earth is reserved for fire and shall pass away, by the word of the LORD.
After we live and reign with God, in Heaven for 1000 years, He will make a new sky and earth and put the New Jerusalem on it.
If the Antichrist takes our stuff, the LORD will keep us under His wings.
Our God reigns!
So if there are no private property, why he do not open the vatican,s vault where is all the richest stolen, thru ages, from European kingdom and from the new world? (The Vatican has 3/4 of the world richest).
Because of what is happening in the world today. is why our Lord reminds us constantly that this earth is not our home. He (God) owns it all. The pope thinks he can destroy many by taking their lands and goods, but, does not realize that we care nothing about it all anyway. Let him take it, and make him think he has done some great deed. He is only digging his own grave. He is stealing from God, not us. Every morning I ask the Lord to protect His land and house, for it does not belong to me!
We are told that every earthly tie will be cut off. It is just around the corner. Let us get ourselves ready spiritually, and God will take care of us materially! We have had it good in this country all our lives. We owe it all to God and Jesus Christ. There is nothing we can do to repay their goodness. All we can do is be faithful to the very end.
I find it interesting that the pope tells trump to not build a wall because it isn’t loving but he hasn’t torn down the walls that surround his empire…He speaks of the common good while he is surrounded with luxury,servants, body guards and the rest. Common good? Those who scream the loudest are never the first in line to do what they are demanding of others. How much money does a 0.17 square mile country need to operate? Monolith structures, vast holdings in the stock market and land, rooms filled with gold crosses, other rooms filled with silver crosses, priceless works of art, partnerships, corporate stock and holdings, front companies,…the list goes on and on. Reminds me of the person who owned many sheep but chose to slaughter his neighbors one and only sheep to give to the traveler who came over… if a man doesn’t work neither should he eat…hunger is a good motivator for getting a job.
Even Paul chose to work to support his ministry
Bonjour,
Il est écrit,vous aurez toujours des pauvres avec vous,mais Dieu a fait certains hommes,et pays assez riches afin de subvenir aux besoins des plus pauvres,mais hélas c’est le contraire qui se produit de nos jours,ont prend aux pauvres pour enrichir ceux qui sont déjà riches une honte a tout ceux-là.Rien de comparable,avec le fils de Dieu qui se fit pauvres,avec les pauvres,certains feraient mieux de mettre en pratique ce qui dit la bible.Jésus lui même travailla a l’atelier de son père,pour subvenir aux besoin du foyer,alors les donneurs de leçons!!!!!,les apôtres aussi travaillèrent dure.
