In his
annual Christmas "urbi et orbi" message, Pope Francis has condemned
this year's "brutal" religious persecution in the Middle East. He
also urged for peace in Nigeria, Ukraine and other troubled regions.
Deutsche Welle, 25 Dec 2014
Speaking at
midday local time (1100 UTC) from the central balcony of the Vatican Basilica
on Thursday, the 78-year-old pontiff addressed the Catholic congregation around
the world as well as the tens of thousands who had gathered in St. Peter's
Square.
"Christmas
should bring a message of salvation to a world marred by conflict and
suffering," Pope Francis said Thursday as he called for an end to violence
against "vast numbers of children."
Reflecting
on last week's deadly attack on a Pakistani school in Peshawar, the Pope said:
"Truly there are so many tears this Christmas."
"May
the power of Christ, which brings freedom and service, be felt in so many
hearts afflicted by war, persecution and slavery [and] take away the hardness
of heart of so many men and women immersed in worldliness and
indifference," he added.
'Brutal
persecution'
In his
message the Pope also deplored child abuse and the practice of abortion. He
called for an end to conflicts in African countries, and appealed for dialogue
between Israelis and Palestinians.
His
toughest words, however, were reserved to defend victims of "Islamic State" (IS) fighters who have been killed or displaced for failing to
share the group's ideology.
"I ask
him, the Saviour of the world, to look upon our brothers and sisters in Iraq
and Syria, who for too long now have suffered the effects of ongoing conflict,
and who, together with those belonging to other ethnic and religious groups,
are suffering a brutal persecution," Pope Francis said.
"May
Christmas bring them hope, as indeed also to the many displaced persons, exiles
and refugees, children, adults and elderly, from this region and from the whole
world," he added.
'Tenderness'
Prior to
delivering his Christmas Day message, the pontiff also posted on Twitter:
With Jesus there is true joy.
— Pope Francis (@Pontifex) December 25, 2014
On
Christmas Eve, the pope celebrated a 90-minute mass in St Peter's Basilica.. In
his homily, he said "tenderness" was needed to heal the world.

"Revelations of Darkness" - Oct 1, 2014 (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll) - (Text version)
“ .. Do Not Despair
There's too much information to give you in one channelling, in one sitting, so I refer to past messages for you to better understand and reference the information in order to get the bigger picture. So I wish to remind you of something I also told you in a recent channelling called Do Not Despair. You're winning! It's because you're winning that the dark consciousness on this planet is feeling it, and the humanity that represents darkness is pulling out everything it has to survive.
It Has Always Been There
Let's look at it, because it's all over the news. Are you shocked at the sudden existence of the organization that will remain unnamed [for this channelling]? Where did it come from? How could it be so organized? How could it be so well funded? This organization could have its own country soon! They might as well name it, “The Old Energy Dark Country”, for that's what it will represent.
The barbaric past of humanity comes forward to show its face. It has always been there, hiding under the rocks and between the cracks of civilized humanity. It couldn't show itself until now, but now it has to. It's ugly and it's not for the faint at heart, is it, dear ones? Seeing evil personified in Human action is abhorrent. It is so ugly and so dark that you cannot look upon it with a gentle heart. God is not a part of it and this is obvious.
You're winning! Light is winning! The uprising of dark consciousness would not have shown itself with this strength, or this quickly, if this were not so. This is exactly what I told you to look for, and it is proof that those representing this dark consciousness are in trouble. Dear ones, dark consciousness has always had a tried-and-true system. It lurks in the shadows and influences all the power places of the planet - government, commerce, finance. Suddenly, it can't hide there as well anymore and it's out in the open.
Where is the funding coming from? It is coming from a storehouse that has always been there, dear ones. It uses income that has been generated from low consciousness acts, collected for a very long time. Funding didn't just appear. It has been stored, waiting to be used in order to spread fear and darkness to save what they believe is their way.
Who Will Win?
Dear ones, they haven't got a chance! But it looks like they do, doesn't it? Everything that they are doing is calculated to scare you into submission. Are they winning? Now, that's a question I want you to take from here and examine every day.
Fear is black. If you're in fear, there is no light. You can be the grandest Lightworker, or even be the channeller, but if you're in fear, it doesn't matter how many years you've done light work, or how much light you've accumulated personally. It all goes away with fear, and then they've won the battle for your mind. Do you understand this?
The Strength of the Old Soul - YOU
Old souls, Lightworkers reading this, the experiences you have had over lifetimes and lifetimes are incredible! The old soul knows fear. I don't want to be too graphic, but I want you to understand! What was it like when you put your head in the guillotine because you talked about God in a way that was inappropriate? What was it like to be bound hand and foot when they lit the match at your feet? Old soul, that's fear! You carry those experiences in your Akash.
I want to tell you they haven't got a chance to scare you! You absolutely know what fear is, and they haven't got a chance as long as you cling to that part of you that is the strength of God. You've been through it all. That means you've got the weapons of truth, wisdom and light. Don't forget it. Don't forget who you are!
Do you see how fast they assembled? It seemed like only yesterday that there was no organization at all. Where did they come from? Have you noticed a certain hesitancy to fight them? Why is it that the citizens of the lands that they are invading are hesitant to fight them? Instead, these leaders are calling on others to help. Why is it that the others are also hesitant? I want to show you that there are some anomalies of logic that are not making sense, because this is a battle you have never seen before on this planet. We've expected it, but you haven't. It's about consciousness, not land or resources.
How to Win?
We gave you the secret before of how to defeat them without taking even one life: Simply take away their funding. They cannot exist without their funding. The funding has to be organized, stored, and distributed. It has to be generated in such a way that it must also go through institutions. Did you hear that? All you have to do is stop the system. Winning won't be done with bombing. It's going to be done with intelligence, clever thinking and financial forensics. It's time to get smart on some of these things and not to be afraid to look at this puzzle differently than you have before. Do not apply the energy they are using in order to fight them, because you won't win. Figure it out. It's the last bastion of organized darkness and evil thinking on this planet coming together to try to survive the assault of your light. Don't be afraid to look at the funding trail, no matter where it takes you.
Fear is Their Weapon
I want you to know something as you look at your news. It may appear that you are unable to stop them. In many places, they will gain strength as they create fear. The fear is easily created in those who are not old souls and who don't know fear like you do and who don't have the armor of your spiritual experiences. This puts you in the front line, dear one. Did you realize that? But you don't have to go fight them on their terms. All you have to do is broadcast light. High consciousness will beat fear any day.. .”
