Pope Francis – New Evidence Suggests Petrus Romanus Has Arrived

Before I begin let me first say that because this has to do with the Pope, the spiritual leader of the Catholic Church and can be seen as the mortal messenger of God, by objective here is to not condemn Francis I nor do I wish to cast a negative shadow over Catholicism in general.  Religion is one of the deadly conversational sins, along with salary and politics.  My objective here is to look at a point in history represented by St. Malachy’s prophecy and dissect Francis I’s ascension in terms of his possible candidacy for Petrus Romanus.   So that being said lets just “keep it to the facts ma’am.”

It all started a very long time ago, as such things do.  St. Malachy, the 12th century Archbishop of Armagh, was given a frighting vision of the future.  In this vision he saw the remaining 111 Popes starting with Celestine II and ending with “Petrus Romanus” or Peter the Roman, the final pope.  Visions and prophecies are frankly a dime a dozen, so why is Malachy’s prophecy so important?  In large part it is due to the fact that, according to the prophecy, Peter the Roman will be the final Pope and reside over the collapse of the church and the destruction of Rome.  So Peter the Roman is quite literately the final Pope.

“Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills (Rome) will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End.”

Over the years there has been a fair amount of conjecture of who Peter the Roman will actually be and many have discounted the idea, in fact the prophecy is quite controversial and has been claimed to actually be a 16th century forgery.  But with the recent abdication of Benedict and the sudden rise of Francis the prophecy has come into view again and again is being debated across the four corners of the globe.

So why is the ascension of Francis I so interesting and what makes him a viable candidate?  I mean his papal name is not Peter right?  Well lets take a look, and remember since Peter the Roman represents a sort of anti-pope there are some key things we need to look for.
