Pope Francis: Jesus is weeping over a WORLD AT WAR

Pope's homily calls Catholics to stand for peace.

Pope Francis has made it clear, Jesus is weeping over a world at war. It has become obvious that this is a time of extreme danger for all people around the globe. No population is safe from terror. The threats aren't just from terrorist organizations like ISIS and Al Qaeda, but also from great countries like the China, the U.S.A., and Russia who are squaring off in a dozen theaters around the globe. It is time for the people of the world to unite and act.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - "Jesus is weeping," Pope Francis said in his daily homily on Nov. 19. "What remains? Ruins, thousands of children without a wholesome upbringing and so many innocent dead." And this war is just getting started.

Pope Francis referred to the current state of international conflict as a "Third World War."

In the homily he explained, "Jesus also weeps today, because we have preferred the path of war, the path of hatred, the path of enmity. Christmas is approaching: there will be lights, there will be celebrations, lighted trees and manger scenes . all bedecked: as the world continues to wage war. The world has not understood the things that make for peace."

Pope Francis ended his homily with a call for the conversion of hearts: "Let us ask for conversion of heart. As we stand before the door of this Jubilee of Mercy, let us ask that our jubilation and our joy may be the grace of the world once again being able to mourn its crimes, to weep over what it is doing through war."

It is now time for EVERY Catholic to act.
