	THE ANTI CHRIST Unveiled by Richard Bennett
		Depending on these physical signs instead of direct faith on the Lord Christ Jesus is the deception of the papacy which subtly deflects faith from the person of Christ to signs that are claimed to be powers.
		Such tolerance holds that the warnings of Christ and the Apostles John and Paul are not to be seen historically, but rather applied to some future political leader at the end of the last times.
		While futurism asserts the nearness of the Second Advent of Christ, it destroys the historical timeframe of His opposer, the Antichrist, which is essential to correctly understanding this fulfillment of prophecy.

		The Lord Jesus Christ, knowing the need for an infallible Vicar for His church, speaks of the coming of the Holy Spirit and His office as Vicar of Christ.
		The pope claims to be the Vicar of Christ; those who know the Holy Spirit immediately reject his claim, and others can see the documented evidence that proves this man to be an imposter.
		The Lord Jesus Christ, Himself the Infinite Son of God, knew that the Church would need an infallible Vicar to keep it from errors that would assail her, Rather than designate a man, He appointed the Holy Spirit, Himself not only infallible, but infinitely perfect.

	Who is the Vicar of Christ
		Because there is a direct connection between the redemption of Christ and the ministry of the Holy Spirit, it is a soul damning error to mistake the work of the Holy Spirit as Vicar of Christ with the position or work of any man.
		The key role of the True Vicar of Christ is to glorify Christ, “He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.”
		The Catholic is thus enslaved to a system by the assurance that he has “The Holy Father” and the “Vicar of Christ” in the person of his Pope.

	THE BISHOP OF ROME: THE AUTHENTIC VICAR OF CHRIST, HEAD OF THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH, THE FATHER AND TEACHER OF ALL ...
		With these words the Florentine Council expressed the Catholic awareness of the primacy through formulations that referred to the authentic Latin theological tradition the profoundest meaning of which must be understood in the light of their reception and proposal by both the Vatican Councils.
		Since the title "vicar of Christ" was traditionally also used for bishops, the adjective "authentic" was added so as to indicate the difference, a particular and unique relationship in the vicarial representation of Christ in the person of Peter and in his successors.
		This is why for example the canonical or theological theories that implied that being the "vicar of Christ" involved power over the whole world, on the Church and on temporal events, both over Christian and non-Christian believers, were wrong.

		In the overall context of the discussion of Christ's masculine role as Bridegroom, it is now possible to understand why Christ appointed only males to be Apostles.
		Furthermore, "Since Christ, in instituting the Eucharist, linked it in such an explicit way to the priestly service of the Apostles, it is legitimate to conclude that He thereby wished to express the relationship between man and woman, between what is feminine and what is masculine.
		It is the Eucharist that above all expresses the redemptive act of Christ the Bridegroom toward the Church the Bride.

		He writes that "the decline in religious vocations and Mass attendance" are promising signs of the disappearance of an older model Church and of the appearance of the new-model Church, "a Church which is a fellowship of believers.")
		Pottmeyer's position is perhaps best understood by considering it in relation to a single phrase, "Vicar of Christ." For Pottmeyer, the title is tantamount to idolatry, to deifying the Pope.
		But Pottmeyer is here misrepresenting John Paul's teaching on "Vicar of Christ." In Crossing the Threshold of Hope (October 1994), the Pope pointed out that, for the Fathers, every Christian is another Christ (Christianus alter Christus), and that every priest administers the sacraments in persona Christi.
