“Supreme legislative, executive, and judicial power is vested in the pope,…”
Political Handbook of the World: 1993, “Vatican City State,” p. 916, edited by Arthur S. Banks, 1993

“… the Vatican City State, the smallest independent [political] entity in the world,…” ibid., p. 915

“Political Status: Independent sovereign state, under papal temporal [political] government; international status governed by the Lateran Treaty with Italy [Fascist dictator Benito Mussolini] of February 11, 1929.” ibid., p. 915

Monetary Unit: The Vatican has the right to issue papal coinage. ibid., p. 915

The sovereign political Vatican City State has a Secretary of State. ibid., p. 915

The pope “serves concurrently as bishop of Rome, supreme pontiff of the Universal Church [sic], primate of Italy, archbishop and metropolitan of the Province of Rome, and sovereign of the Vatican City State.” ibid., p. 915

Americans, please take note, the combination of civil governmental and religious offices of the Pope is the antithesis of the American principle of the separation of civil and ecclesiastical authority, jurisdiction, and power. In this one political and religious figure, who is vested as “pope” with the simultaneous, dual titles of both Sovereign Head of State and Supreme Ecclesiastical leader of the Roman Catholic Church [sic].

So when Pope Bendict XVI comes to visit George W. Bush in the White House on April 16, 2008, this is both a meeting of two international political heads of state, and, at the same time, a meeting between the US President and the Religious Leader of the NWO’s one-world (false) religion of Roman Catholicism. The Vatican was not formally recognized diplomatically by the United States until 1984 under “conservative” President Ronald Reagan.

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee,…” Hosea 4:6

“O My people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” Isaiah 3:12

“… I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matt. 16:18

Roman Catholicism is NOT Biblical Christianity

Rome’s Pope to meet Muslims; furthers NWO goal of one-world (false) Religion
The anti-Christian New World Order (NWO) has three main planks:
1) one-world civil (‘political’) Government
2) one-world Money
3) one-world (false) Religion
