False Prophets

The gospel of the Catholic Church for the seventh Sunday after Pentecost is Matt 7, 15-21 one of the more famous and relevant versus of our day.  It contains the famous words of Jesus Christ, "Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. . . "

 This passage does not appear on Sundays of the three year cycle of Novus Ordo readings. It couldn't because it does not fit their religion.  The conciliar popes of recent decades promote the fact that one religion is as good as the other so that there can be no false prophets.    

This passage according to Douay Rheims interpretation warns us to beware of hypocrites, with their outward appearance of sanctity, and sound doctrine.  If their interpretation is correct then this passage was warning us about the popes since Vatican II.
