One World Religion

Last week the Cross Talk radio had a program about what happened on Monday, February 4th. On that day Pope Francis and the Grand Imam of al-Azhar, Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb, met together and signed ‘A Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together’, a declaration calling for tolerance and peace among the nations of the world. There are over one billion Muslims and 1.3 billion baptized Catholics in the world. That means that one third of all the people on the earth are either Catholic or Muslim. That does not include their influence on the rest of the world who are not adherents. The signing represents the first time there’s ever been a papal visit to the Arab-Gulf states, while marking a historical breakthrough in Roman Catholic/Muslim dialogue. It’s prophetic because of Revelation 17.
