- The Vatican's Landmark Ruling Allows Priests to Bless Same-Sex Couples | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Pope Francis has allowed Roman Catholic priests to bless same-sex couples. This is a significant advance for LGBTQIA+ Catholics. But the blessings will not be part of regular church rituals or weddings. Because the Catholic Church continues to view marriage as between a man and a woman. So the Catholic Church has not changed its position but softened its tone. How was this ruling received? With this declaration, has the church become less rigid? Will Pope Francis be successful in "broadening" the appeal of the Catholic Church? Palki Sharma tells you.

Jesus Christ is the head of every church.
Not a Bishop, Apostle, Pope , Business man/woman or any Politician, just to name a few.
We really have to watch and pray in these last days.
People are not studying the Bible and taking it seriously. These are the days of Noah.
Hating the Catholic Church is hating Jesus Christ.
@@heismyinspiration.6996If Catholic Church is getting way from teachings and bible then we should stand against it. Pope a human being, nothing else. We should live according to Jesus and bible
satin wants to destroy Jesus Church and the Jews. WHY? so he can call God a Liar. Matthew 16:18
@@John-zu2hi I'm saying based on quran and hadith.
In the Quran, Jesus is taken to heaven by God, but no record says mohammd is in heaven, not even the Quran.
There are 26 different arabic versions of quran( u can google it), which one is real?, means it's not word of God. Mohammd has disobeyed all commandments of God, which means he disobeyed God himself. Mohammd has killed, raped, did child marriage, married his sons wife, owned sex slaves and so on. Mohammd drastically died from poison, a very normal human. Even God didn't warn him and mohammd can't predict his future. Mohammd can't predict his own future, how will he predict his followers future?
Jesus predicted his death and resurrection, that happened. Jesus himself said he is the Son of God. Jesus said he will be next to his father in heaven.
It is not a Pope's job to teach what is "Fashionable" in the current world. His job is to teach church doctrine to it's flock.

@@Breezeyogi It simply means the church is being compromised and so is the truth
See Genesis chapters 18 and 19 where Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed because of this.

It is evil that is why God himself destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah

Get out from her
Pope gone mad or under pressure.Duty of Pope is to show people the right path.
Why can't he resign??
Ratizager resgn why not him?if you can not stand the heart simply you know the kitchen door
Did you read the Pope’s letter? I think not.
He is taking marijuana nowadays
Need more vacation!
Pope Francis now thinks God was not wise enough to create Eve for Adam . this is madness, let him resign with immediate effect.
Catholicism are not Christians they are a cult of Satan. The Pope is not a holy man. He is being used by Satan to take Catholics to hell. Somebody should ask the Pope and his so called priests or fathers what is the Salvation Message, the true Baptismal Formula. Jesus said don't call any one father here on earth except the Father in Heaven.
You've been misled by the media...read the official statement of the Vatican... bless them as in pray for them for their sickness or problems in life not the blessings of the same - sex couples...the official statement clearly stated that and rule out the same sex marriage and follow the same tradition of men and women marriage only
Follow Pope, not Jesus Christ 🙏

I think you should read properly what the pope said. He did not allow same sex marriage (which I would be pro btw), he said that you can bless homosexuals which I see no point against

😅satan is still already defeated. His time is coming to an end so he has to hurriedly possess any open vessel that is not walking after the spirit. Clearly tge pope was wide open!!!!
Imagine doing this at 87 in diminishing health, do you have no fear of God?
You know, when it is about their name to be called, than , they start to reviled what they called in reviled
It's clear the Pope is dead wrong on this topic. It recognizes and specifically accepts Sin with eyes wide open and thereby implicitly approves it. That degrades Catholicism. What's next. Many Catholics will leave the Church as a result of this. The Eastern Orthodox Churches are the only Christian churches left with a clear and proper view and practice of Christianity. Absurd.
7th day Adventist Church was right all along that Pope is the Antichrist and the Vatican is the kingdom of Satan
***What's Next. ..is He can bless children to be naked, molested & Raped, oh Nevermind that's Their Policy***
NOONE WILL LEAVE JUST LIKE THE PEDOPHILIA THEY DON’T CARE
Orthodox churches are loosing its members at a faster rate😒...what are you smoking?
Whoever read the Bible knows this is not allowed in their religion.......
Bible doesn't say that Homosexuals should not marry with same gender's partner. U can just misinterpret words in the Bible. God is giving them parents under your nose. I saw many Homosexuals who are happily living their love lives by marrying their same gender's partners without keeping hesitation of heterosexuals As they also have right to marry with their loving person.Truth is that all sexualities are natural
And those who are living their lives as per their sexuality they are not commiting sin moreover they are keeping God's will. Nothing is impossible
Homosexuals will be soon accepted by many religions and countries
@@csoa9322You must be reading a different kind of Bible my friend
@@traceydumase thank you so much for letting me know. I hope you haven't learnt by reading your Bible to condemn or criticize someone just on the basis of his unique sexuality.
Bless Africa bishops for saying NO🙏🇿🇦
God created humans..man and woman..its being that way not just for humans but for all the living creatures and that makes a couple..if God had ordained who is this pope to change it . God will surely take his vengeance on them.
potentially opens door for blessing all sinful relationships, and thereby puts them & members under legal scrutiny. Sanctification via blessing of previous sinful relationships = rewriting church doctrine on drfinition of sin.
Additionally, lgtb rights now becomes a legal/religious right for the church to claim, increasung the likelihood of church closures in the East.
Isn't it a sin to judge others?

No, Jesus says we are to judge righteously (John 7:24). Homosexuality is wicked.

😢Just heartbreaking
Next there will be a blessing of heroin addiction, lets be more inclusive.LoL
Cardinal Fernandez just came out with a new document see Vatican news and confirms the blessing are for people not the union , I think all this word salad is for the German bishops to avoid schism
How can a Priest consciously bless an abomination. This shows that according to Catholics there's nothing to be called sin.
This is man against God's law
The Catholic Church hasn't sanctioned the SAME SEX UNION. It still considers it to be sinful. However, the same sex couples could be blessed as individuals.
Madness in Christianity 🙆🏾
Sunday churches ain't Christianity
Catholic isnt Christianity! just need to make that clear!!
This has NOTHING to do with CHRISTIANITY……nothing.
@@lasitanielu1098facts
What a joke 😂😂😂😂😂
I'm catholic, God doesn't tolerate sins. Giving blessing to same-sex couple is like you're tolerating their sinful relationship.
This is just stupidity.how can u bless pple that are not going to have children.even the tree that was not bearing fruits was cursed 😢😢😢
I see truth in your words...
This is not right!!!!! That's not what bible aloud to support!!!! Wrong, wrong, wrong!!!!
They were the one that started percicuition of our Lord Jesus Christ, all this time they were pretending, now they are telling you that that are tired of pretending
Everything is happining as predicted in the Bible. The churches will become luke warm as they are more and more defined by the worldly standards. The Bible warned that God will vomit out these sinners from His mouth (Revelation 3:15-16). Many so called christians/priests/pastors will not enter the Kingdom of God as they deliberately chose to undermine the Holy Word of God.
The Catholic church has been lukewarm forever
Catholic never follow Jesus's teaching
you have to ask yourself why the lgbtq isnt worried about acceptance in any other religion but watch how christianity alone will become the target of persecution on the basis of “inclusion”l
Satan doesn’t need to get the other religions on board because Jesus is his target.
Very, very sad
Because of this sin and abortion America will hear from God soon universally.
Now a days people should not be blindly beleive in church but should verify yourself whether the doctrine is compatible or not with the word of God in the Bible, otherwise should left that Church immediately to flee yourself from the devil 🙏
I have nothing to say, I would just wait for judgement day for God to decide our fates!!
Do we really need these 'blessings' to move ahead in life?
Let's cut it off
Good point.
Francis is an asshole.@@Breezeyogi
Even though many Catholics know this message by pope is totally against scripture, yet will they stay with it knowing this is wrong. The pope message is not a small thing. This, I believe, will trickle down to other faiths and force them to make similar concessions for same sex couples.
no it won't. F that.
yeh thats something I really dont understand about the catholics...
@@delmanpronto9374sadly it's already happening. There's a Christian church that allowed same sex marriage and the ones opposed to it separated from it. It's just down right disgusting. Might as well not call themselves Christians for allowing such sin.
@@dave_mate4244 "other faiths" ... don't think so.
What do you mean by stay with it ? We don't leave our catholic faith because what a person says . The pope cannot change scripture . Have you read the document ? Or are you responding to so-called news ?
We are well acquainted with the term FEDUCIA SUPLICA following the issuance of a specific decree by Pope Francis for the blessing of homosexual couples in the Catholic Church.
There is a widespread debate on its moral implications, with one side considering it sinful and the other viewing it as virtuous. Moralists present evidence from quotes in Genesis, particularly the story of Sodom, to argue that it is sinful. It is important to note that during the period of Sodom, there was only one god, YAHWEH. On the other hand, the opposition argues that Christianity believes in the Trinity, which is a union of three deities of the same sex.
Therefore, since the Catholic Church is consecrated by such a union, it is deemed appropriate to bless couples of the same decree.
Thanks.
The Pope should also produce a document saying that people in Polygamous marriages can aslo receive blessings from a Priest.
Also beastiality. Also peadophilia. Also any other sin.
Yes
@@DustandfuzzI think there is a huge difference between two consenting adults and intercourse with another species
The Catholic church has been destroyed by pope Francis. No matter what the pope will say to justify his reasons for blessing sin, God has never encouraged sin.
The Roman Church is not Christianity. The Holy Bible refers to the End Time Church as the Harlot Church that accepts sinful practices.
If this was a such a wise decision, why did the great Pope JP II not implemented this policy? It just simply shows this Pope is giving in to pressure. Not my type of a holy man.
Pope Francis clarified that homosexuality is not a sin.
It has been left to parish priests to bless or not bless these relationships. There will be huge strife now within Catholic parishes about this - the anger of traditional parishioners who feel their Catholic ethics are being trashed, and the anger of gay couples who are denied the blessings by traditional priests. Francis has divided the Church.
There will be different type of Parish.
A Progressive Parish
A Traditional Conservative Parish.
He didn't divide the Churchof Jesus Christ. He divided Roman Catholic Church.
Same sex is handecap, love.
We must study, respect and obey to our Present Peter. We dont lost hope. Reminder Jesus Christ has given authority to His any Vicar. Whatever Pope binds on earth, heaven accept it. Whatever Pope losses, heaven also must reject it.
Priests can hear confessions and bless all sinners. But the media is giving unnecessary twists to this story as if to suggest something huge has happened. Nobody ever stopped a priest from blessing people of all shades. However, the sacrament of marriage can only be solemnised between a man and a woman even after this Vatican declaration. Having said that, I wish the Pope had avoided courting such controversies in his twilight years. I pray for a pope like John Paul II to be at the helm after him.
Hmmm
He is saying that homosexuality is not a sin by what he is doing. No matter what he calls it. There will be even more people falling away from this organization now. I saw it with the United Church which accepts homosexuality fully. Caused deep division in that organization. Hopefully people will join a bible believing church and become true worshippers of Christ, not of man.
@@Dustandfuzzidiot. He said homosexuality is a sin a thousand times. He said its not a crime. There is a difference between sin and crime.
What's different here is that he officially said same sex unions can be blessed, versus lo e and Nless the sinner and pray for them but reject the Sin. Really awful
@@Breezeyogi he never said to bless same sex unions. Moron, read the document.
The marriage of man and woman is made in heaven hence this is made by Pope.
Yes
Counterfeit marriage.. The devil's masterpiece,, sad many are falling for this rebellion!
The Pope is a sinful man. He’s not part of Gods plan. He’s wicked.
Thats against what god created
Slowly testing how deep the water is. The advisers are not sleeping.
What the Holy Bible says in the book of 1 cor 6:9-11. Do you not know that unrighteous people will not inherit God's Kingdom. Do not be misled. Those who are sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, men who submit to homosexuality, 10verse, thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers and extortioners will not inherit God's Kingdom 11verse, And yet that is what some of you were, But you have been washed clean, you have been sanctified, you have been declared righteous in the name of the LORD Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our GOD. Let those that have ears here. May the peace of the LORD be with you all, Amen. GRACE MERCY. MERCY MERCY MERCY. THANK YOU LORD JEHOVAH. AMEN
That’s the reason I am no longer Catholic
🤣 shame on your narrow minded thoughts
All Catholic need to call for resignation of the Pope not tolerate of the Pope wrong doing.
Sodom and Gomorrah
Bolt and bolt how can you tight unless bolt and nut I think this is totally madness we are leaving in the world of madness
The pope has to stick to GOD’S WORD. The pope does not have the right to change GOD’s Word! Read the Bible🙏
It’s a simple blessings on the individuals because we can’t judge someone’s sexual orientation. The same sex marriage and union is strictly prohibited in the Catholic Church. Pope’s view is simply misinterpreted like this news. This news reporter is simply biased. Does not present single fact properly.
Very Sad indeed, Christianity is questionable it doesn't know wr it stands .😭😭😭😭
Whether the blessings are given or not it doesn’t change the gravity of the sin…. For me the pope is also human . We don’t need to follow whatever he says unless it is Pleasent before God what he says….for me my pope is pope Benedict. Who was a man of few words and very responsible leader.
Why is it a sin when literally priests bless guns too. What a joke you are
Nobody is dispute that he is not your pope, it's seems that people now turn their Bible upside down to read , they have turned some portion of the book and rewrite it to suit them
Vatican will allow anything to be popular and rich😂 Catholic Church is a chameleon 😅
Infallibility at its best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God is not our twin brother. God does not share his Glory with anyone. As long as you leave today obey God ND NOT a man

You may apply the Litmus Test.
Who is a Higher authority on this subject. Holy Jesus of Nazareth, The TORAH, or a follower ?
Sincerely,
The pope ordered to bless the same sex couples or same sex relation,this is the big faults of the pope,this is not the teaching of jesus,if you bless the same sex couples,it means you tolerate their wrong doing,how did this same sex couples realized,that their relationship is wrong,because pope ordered that bless them,,i think many priests and cardinals and bishops did not agreed with this pope decision,for me im a catholic,i was imbarrass and discouraged with the pope, because of his decision,but im not imbarrass and descouraged the catholic church because jesus christ is the founder of this religion..
😂😂😂

"Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord' and not follow the will of my Father?"
This news is good because its making it very clear who the bigots are 😅
How can the Catholic Chruch bless a relationship if it considers it sinful?
History after history.. disgusting papal system
The First to the Corinthians 6:9, 10
Or do you not know that unrighteous people will not inherit God's Kingdom? Don't be misled. Those who are sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, men who submit to homosexual acts, men who practice homosexuality, thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers, and extortioners will not inherit God's Kingdom.
U are trying to misguide all against Homosexuality misinterpreting some specific words in the Bible
In the Bible it hasn't written anywhere that same sex marriage is sin
However u r saying it just to speak ill about Homosexuals
Satan is in your thoughts not in Bible that everyone will judge Homosexuals like u reading Bible
Jesus said "go and sin no more" and not "go and continue to sin."
This reminds me of the Nostradamus prophecy on Popes. Around the world, we can witness many biblical verses coming to pass, including the Euphrates drying up. Based on Nostradamus and the Biblical words, most Christians should start to think about the end times seriously. Rapture is at hand. Pray to prepare our souls. Don't be worried about unthinkable things that may happen or that are happening in your lives. That's how it would be. Jesus has overcome them. And with His divine strength, we all can overcome. Those who don't believe in Jesus Christ as God and Savior, please please start to know about Him, accept Him as the only God, and trust Him. He can only save us all.
Where is human rights if interested aren't fullfil?
Pride is the begining of fall
Change the pope as soon as possible!
Crazy Pope, money collection
I do not see this man like a Godly man. He disobeyed God and disrespecting the Law of the Lord. This is not even sin this is abomination in front of the site of God. No Spirit of God is inside this man. The Lord Forgive him and have mercy on his soul. I hope He repent from his abomination. Have Mercy Lord
Its the work of evil and wickedness will abound in the last days and surely it is happening in this generation as we are fast approaching to his very soon return ! " My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." Hosea 4:6 he is not a good sheep but a wolf! He is gonna lead millions with him down the wrong path! Maranatha.
I hope our Pope is not again taken out of context just like what happened in an ambush interview while on the plane. Does he mean to bless the union or bless the persons??? Why is our Pope so concerned of people returning to the church. and not to GOD? ..why not just admonish us sinner to return to GOD? JESUS Son of the Living GOD, have mercy on us all sinners. AMEN.
There is no such thing as "LGBTQ Catholics". When the scripture clearly states that homosexual relationships are sinful and forbidden in the Catholic faith then that should be enough for any religion to maintain it's position. And as for people who are sexual minorities, it's obvious that they have two choices if they want to include their religion and their sexual orientation in one box. They can either marry heterosexually or remain celibate but the most best decision would be to just leave the church and be themselves because you can obviously leave your religion, but you cannot leave your soul or your body and same-sex attraction is a part of that body. But just hallucinating in the fallacy that God will accept you for your same-sex orientation is just ludicrous. If the faith cannot accommodate you as a human being, then you can simply leave it. Blessing same sex couples is not a spiritual decision, but a political agenda on part of the church to keep up with times no matter how bizarre they get. God's word will remain unchanged. The church is not only betraying its own scripture, holy Divine laws but at the same time it's deceiving sexual minority couples and all of society.
Scripture, Apostolic teachings, 2000 years of Church tradition, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, every single ecumenical council ever...
It's just like the pope opening the gates of purgatory straight to Hell..😂
Why cant the pope leave sensitive and irregular issues alone for crying out loud. Must he always give his opinion over matters that will shake the values of the church and the word of God? Our God is not one of confusion. He should really stick on preaching the word of church and not sharing his opinions because opinions that contradicts the word of God is usually a bad opinion.
By Vatican News
When two people request a blessing, even if their situation as a couple is “irregular,” it will be possible for the ordained minister to consent. However, this gesture of pastoral closeness must avoid any elements that remotely resemble a marriage rite.
Leaving this here for all the confused souls
Great
When you present yourself as a same sex couple and ask for blessing that itself is already wrong.
It's called gradualism. That's how Satan creeps into the church. They have a goal, they did this to see the reaction of people. With support from people like you they will soon fully approve gay marriage.
This is not true !!read the papers !
Is pope francis a real Christian period or is he a real christian in the catholic region
No one on earth can bless sin. There will be no blessing for no one, not for the „same-sex-union“, even less for the Priest.
There is no „church-teaching“, no man made rules,
it‘s all about the word of God, about Jesus.
It is very sad, what is happening to the „church“.
Not makjng it legal but only give them parish services not denied.
Why should it be a debate for him in the first place. That's Stylishly giving concent.
It is not "to be more pastoral" to encourage, condone or bless a relationship that sends people to eternal damnation.
MONEY TALKS 🏳️🌈🤌
What the F. This is the end!
The pope sees the church needs to be more inclusive to survive. It's like when the church adopted pagan holidays to accommodate former pagan converts.
This pope is speaking for himself not for all Catholics. Period.
Let’s not forget that the pope has no power to change the doctrine of faith,, And yes, we’re leaving in a spiritual warfare where our Lord warned us about all this going on,, we don’t leave Christchurch because of Judas in the church. We stayed to the end.
The Polks job is to protect and preserve the truth. That’s it. He has no power to change the truth. , a faithful Catholic. That understands the faith knows that.
Really?
This is unbelievable.
This world is messed up
Incredible

Why the title of the news is not proper. Supposed to be same sex can’t marriage but he can bless them.
What i see in my life pope John Paul 2 and pope Benedict XVI are good to me
It doesn't change the fact that the catholic church is still the true church of Christ nor change the fact that Jesus Christ is still our God. Pope's are still humans and we dont expect them to be perfect in all aspects of their beliefs. As long as our doctrine still remains nothing is a big deal.

No! This is not Biblical and the Pope is NOT infallible as the Catholic doctrine says. A true Chritian should be studying the Bible - GOD'S WORD - only.
The end is near!
