Catholic Church Is Rich, Why the Pope Designed wear clothes made from the best clothing, glasses Finest Vines?

DISCLAIMER:
  ————————-
  I am also Catholic, so I'm looking for answers to these interesting questions. But if you find any offensive part of the text please, stop reading immediately and please accept my sincere apologies.
  ————————-
  We can not protect the truth by prohibiting the discussion very difficult and controversial issues.
  ————————-
  Jesus never forbade people to ask questions and never would prohibit the discussion, if not think so, just read the New Testament, you will not find open to all sorts of questions, and all kinds of people.
  ————————-
  And last, I DO NOT WANT to offend anyone.
  ————————-
  My question is:
  Jesus told the rich young man (New Testament) to share all their possessions to others and take up his cross and follow Him.
  The apostles were very poor, without property.
  Also, some where in the Holly Bible is written that man can only serve one Lord, so that if good is money and property can not serve God.
  Now, look at all the banks of the Vatican, Pope mobile, treasures, gold and silver, best clothes, the palaces, the best vineyards, and all other possessions.
  How can the Pope (Church and priests), and serve God when he is so rich?
  What is the difference between the rich and wealthy young priest?

    At the risk of offending YOU ME:
      You can not find Biblical answers in a Catholic church.
      Catholicism is not Christianity more Judaized the apostle Paul warned against so vehemently. Among many examples (such as rules and regulations designed to make "good enough for God"), clergy (up to and including the Pope) love to wear long robes and wearing their positions - like priests of God commanded in the Old Testament.
      But Jesus said (Matthew 23:5) that all this is done for the benefit of men - not God.
      And Jesus also said (Luke 16:13) that you can not serve God and money. That the Bible should answer the first question, because they can not serve God the Pope when you use the money that is supposed to be godly purpose in their own office.
      As for the young priest rich and wealthy, there is no difference. I suppose you are referring to Matthew 19:21 here. Like anything else in the Bible, this scripture can be isolated in the sense that the isolation of the person who wants it to mean. However: If considered in the light of the whole Bible, then this does NOT mean literally sell everything you have and give all the proceeds to the poor, but it does mean what you just said - that anything above WHAT YOU NEED to survive they must be distributed to those who have not.
      That was the essence of the Old Testament, also, God told people to use only what they needed, although in the Old Testament were usually "sent" to destroy the excess.
      If this discussion sounds like communism to you, you can be sure it is - but is communism with God. The world communism without God, not for that reason - because the corruption of humans who do not live up to her bargain, and like the Pope had what was given instead of giving to each according to his needs .
      But God will ensure that each receives according to their needs (and not their desires, but their needs), so that people will gladly give according to their means.
      The Pope certainly does not need their fine clothes, and the Catholic Church (or ANY church) does not need a fancy fine cathedral in which to "worship" God.
      This is Luke 16:13 which is the key, if you have too, then you are not serving God.

  2. John says:

    Because the Church is a mega
      since it has full control of the economy of the Middle Ages. It is one of the largest mega-corporations (companies with socio-political influence) in the world. They make money through business, brainwash people, hoping to manipulate people and mass marketing of a "drug" called of God.
      Some people bad start (the apostles), but too much power and the poor gets rich.

  3. Heidelzb says:

    Yes, I mean all you have to do is go to Rome and see the Vatican. It's amazing that people who "claim of poverty" have so much wealth. Actually I saw a nun walking with his servant in a department store spending underwear, she was also very expensive walk in Birkenstocks.

  4. Geneshis says:

    It is amazing how Satan manipulated the system isn't man and the world? Youre on the right track ..
      That and the Pope using pagan symbols, false gods ..

  5. HC says:

    The priest has come to power rich to be above reproach.
      The whole church acts to prevent the trial and imprisonment of a child playing and your biggest problem is their economic liberalism?

    I do not mean to offend either, but its grammar is so screwed that can not even understand the question.

    First, Vatical wealth is a myth, and who have been deceived by the anti-Catholic fanatics. I will present evidence instead of making meaningless statements. This is a U.S. government report. Specifically, the CIA fact book, which can be found at https: / / http://www.cia.gov / library / publications … This shows, from the non-sectarian, public sources (the CIA) that the wealth of the Vatican is a myth. Click "Apply"
      Read it carefully. There is no loss in progress. The budget in the Vatican is smaller than Chicago. The CIA has no reason to mislead the pubic with a false report, and if they did, the Vatican is filled with hundreds of journalists every day for dirt to appear.
      s regarding the Pope's clothes, which is steeped in tradition, that is, at this point, beyond their ability to understand. They are high quality because the Pope is entitled to, and 1.1 billion Catholics would like to see them. You draw the attention of your clothes because you can not cope with their words? Why not cut his first encyclical? Then I will make it easier for you to find: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedi
      And you judge the Pope for what he teaches, and not worry so much about what you saw?
      Would you feel "better" if they sold the pyramids Egypt, France, the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall, etc, etc, to feed their hungry? you are a real joker, and I really do not know what "treasures" of the Vatican are … Maybe if they sell the Sistine Chapel, piece by piece with stones and mortar to another country, will have more money to increase their contributions worldwide Catholic … Have you ever seen or heard of all the money from the Vatican to dozens of countries around the world each year to help?? The aid is not only to Catholics but to all … "The Treasures of the Vatican" This is a very old … always used by those who want to be rooted in Catholicism … People who criticize Catholics and the Vatican would be much better if the Pope lives in a hut, in rags, and abject poverty. (Observers say that really live an austere life of much penance, prayer and fasting.)
      Well, I have news for you … The president of Argentina lives in the Casa Rosada, the President of the U.S. life White House, the Queen of England lives in Buckingham Palace (?), And the Pope lives in Vatican City.

      Diocesan priests do not take vows of poverty, the orders of the congregation do, and I would like to publish the names of all those priests supposedly rich. You may disagree with the doctine of my faith, and I will give a reasonable answer. but do not go up lies to support an opinion. I'm not the only one who can see through it.

    No.
      The Catholic Church is probably one of the poorest of religions when comparing dollars per member.
      If the Catholic Church that was worth 20 billion U.S. dollars then, with a billion members, would be worth about $ 20 per member.
      The Protestant Church Street amounts to over a million dollars and has fewer than 1,000 members, working at more than $ 1,000 per member.
      That the church is richer?
      The mission of the Catholic Church is to proclaim and establish the kingdom of God, begun by Jesus Christ among all peoples. The Church strives to save souls.
      Keep the priceless art available at the Vatican in the confidence of all mankind to come, see, and inspire belief in the Kingdom of God is part of this mission.
      The Church might be able to make a couple of million dollars by selling everything, but that would soon be gone and the world would be much better. Especially if humanity does not change for the better.
      Both the Old and New Testament says that is the mission of all humanity (including you and me) to love our neighbor as ourselves. It's our job to stop poverty and create justice and peace.
      If every human on the planet gave $ 10, then 60 billion U.S. dollars would rise.
      If one billion people in rich countries gave a $ 100 each $ 100 million would be raised.
      Not only these riches that the Vatican art collections shabby, this is only a fraction of what can actually be increased if people have their priorities.
      You and I and the rest of humanity can do much more to "help people" that the Vatican can by itself.
      We must stop making excuses for our selfishness, pushing the blame on the Catholic Church.
      By the way, the distribution of Catholic Charities worldwide billions of dollars in goods and services each year to the needy and have been doing for over a thousand years.
      Oh, and do not forget that the Vatican has the ultimate responsibility for the ongoing support of more than 400,000 priests, more than 54,000 religious brothers, religious and more than 760,000 worldwide. http://cara.georgetown.edu/bulletin/inde
      With love in Christ.

    <<is Rich, Church Católica, ¿por what the Pope wear clothing designed made from the best drinking garment, best vines?>>
      Pope's vestments are custom. Many people, depending on your profession, you must have clothes custom fit uniforms identifying their position and job title. And yet, I see them conplaining. . ?
      What is so wrong with robed clerics custom fit?
      <<I too am a Catholic, so I'm looking for answers to these interesting questions. But if you find any offensive part of the text please, stop reading immediately and please accept my sincere apologies.>>
      My problem with your question is that supposed to - without cause - there's something wrong with the custom fit garments for the clergy, and still have not developed specifically why this is a problem.
      <Can'T truths <We protect prohibiting the discussion of difficult and controversial issues.>>
      What's so controversial about potatoes - any priest for that matter - the clothes?
      <<Jesus never forbade people to ask questions and never would prohibit the discussion, if not think so, just read the New Testament, will not find it open for all kinds of questions, and for all types of people.>>
      Speaking for myself, I do not see the purpose behind the robes of the pope discussed. No argument there, you see.
      <<MY QUESTION: Jesus told the rich young man (new testament) share all their possessions to others and take up his cross and follow him.>>
      The money itself is not bad. It is the love of money is. That man loved his money - as Jesus told him to get rid of it.
      There are many rich people in the world who love God, not your money.
      <<Apostles people were very pobre, no material goods.>>
      Jesus chose them because they were "simple". Therefore, no education. As often happens, the simple and uneducated are often the poorest.
      <<Also Some where in the Bible written Es Holly man can only serve a Lord, so if he used the money and serve the goods, Can'T God.>>
      What evidence do you have that demonstrates that the pope is acting as money and goods before Jesus?
      <<Now Just look at all que, from Vatican Banks,>>
      The Vatican's annual budget is larger than the annual budget of the city of Chicago. Furthermore, the budget of the Vatican consistantly finishes in the red by millions. The Vatican Bank is not nearly the amount of money you think.
      <<Papa Mobile,>>
      The Pope Mobile is a must - protect it from the murderers. It has nothing to do with decadence.
      <silver <treasures, and gold,>>
      The Vatican Museum is full of works of art - all equipped with the church. The Church, not the Pope, the owner of such treasures. The only "money" to bring the treasures of the Church is through admission tickets for customers Museum.
      <clothes,> <of finest garments>
      What company makes the clothes?
      How do you know which are, objectively speaking, the "best"?
      <<palaces, best vines, and all other possessions.>>
      None of that is owned by the pope.
      The President of the United States lacks the White House nor most of the things in the White House - and yet live and work there.
      The Pope does not have the Basilica of Saint Peter's, or much of anything in it - and still works and worships there.
      <<How (Church Pope and priests) can serve God when Es rich?>>
      The Pope is not rich. He has two humble room that keeps what few belongings they have.
      <<What's The difference between the rich and wealthy young priest?>>
      The rich young man loved money. The Pope is neither rich nor love money.
      <<It is very important to say, it's not possess the same basic things necessary for normal life …. …. and much, much more typical than you ever will need in your life.>>
      The bottom line is that the Pope has.
      The rest belongs to the Church.
      <Es <Also, important to note that this type of behavior of the clergy (priests & pope) not very good reason for atheism.>>
      What "type of behavior?
      You see, have completely failed to make his point because of its unwillingness or inability to provide details.

    I guess the computer you're using this morning is their possession, a good material that binds you … You live in a house right? that T.V. yours? Cel phone? car? If you're going to pull the 'apostles were very poor with no material goods. card, you better make sure to delete the record of your eye.
    No other organization in the world offers more charitable services of the Catholic Church. The money that the Church is made that is given freely by Catholics, what they do with it is your business. If you do not like to spend it making the house of God … recharged not give money to them. Frankly, I would be very sad to see all the history and art of the Basilica of Saint Peter cast, sold and forgotten.

    There is nothing wrong with being rich, God gave wealth to people all the time, Solomon, David, Job, Abraham, Jacob, Lot.
      God wants to bless people, pressed down, shaken together and overflowing.
      The rich man was not a warning against the money was to show that this money was the most important man in her life. He was a tax collector. During this time of collection of taxes were not paid by tax revenues that many people and keep the extra charge themselves. This was criminal and he was asking Jesus to give up this lifestyle.
      The passage is for the love of money is the root of all evil. It is not money is the root of all evil.

    I know your Catholic, and I really hope you find an honest answer to your question, I also used to be a Catholic in time to make me see the practices and doctrines and learned where they really derive from all. In sincerity.Just what we know, Jesus had nothing too do against the rich, said it would be difficult for a rich man to enter, people impossible.Cause not going to say this, but he told us to give up everything and follow him and we would win everything.Storing of wealth that can not be stolen or rust.
      It is said that if the Vatican were a company, would be the richest in the world !!!.. wow, of course, will say that God blessed the church, or who need all this to feed the hungry, that if that were true they are doing a poor job.And I do not hate Catholics, some of my family are Catholics still, so my concern is that concern.Okay.
