From Roger Oakland of Understand The Times:
Most people are not aware that the Roman Catholic Church headed by the pope has an agenda to win the world to the Roman Catholic Jesus (the Eucharistic Christ). The Eucharistic Christ, is different from the historical Jesus in that the Roman Catholic Jesus requires a Roman Catholic priest to formulate “his” presence through the “mystery” of transubstantiation. This “Jesus” (a wafer) is then offered at mass as the Sacrament of the Eucharist (called an unbloody sacrifice). The Eucharistic Christ is also found on the altar in many Catholic churches and worshiped and adored in what is termed Eucharistic adoration.
In the article beneath, the pope uses ecumenical speak when he states the following:
I have come to repeat the Apostle's urgent call to conversion and the forgiveness of sins, and to implore from the Lord a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the Church in this country.
While statements like this seem to impress leaders like Pat Robertson as well as other “evangelical Protestants,” that Roman Catholicism has relaxed the view that the Roman Catholic Church is the one and only true church, another statement in the same article indicates otherwise. While the word evangelization is used in the title of the article, this is not accurate. The term that should have been used is the “new evangelization.” In fact, later in the same article, we read that the pope actually used this term:
Those who have “taken up the challenge of the Second Vatican Council, so often reiterated by Pope John Paul II, and committed their lives to the new evangelization” also received the encouragement of the Pope.
The goal of Eucharistic adoration is to win the “separated brethren” and eventually all religions to the Roman Catholic Church in order to set up the kingdom of God here on earth.
