Pope John Paul coming back to say hi?

At a celebration honoring Pope John Paul II in Poland, an image has emerged that has some saying "Miracle." Did the late Pope drop in on the party through fire? Here's the image (along with the image it is being compared to):

What do you think? Whether you believe or not, I think there is a point here. And the point is that Catholics believe in the miraculous much more than other Christian groups. We see a miracle every Sunday in Mass when bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, so we're more likely to accept the potential of Pope John Paul II (or God) giving the celebrants this image of the late Pope. It the articles and interviews I've seen, it strengthened their faith, so even if you don't believe, it is a miracle of sorts.

May it strengthen the faith of each of us.


God bless,
Jay

How did they get the picture of the flame? Wasn't the flame moving around a lot? Just wondering. It's pretty cool.

the bible talks of a "beast" who will rule the world during the 42 month period of the great tribulation before the second coming of Jesus Christ.the beast will have received a fatal blow during his earthly life,and apparently will resurrect from the dead once dead.the bible idicates the beast will come from Rome(the city of seven hills).once he comes from the abyss,HE WILL BE TOTALLY BE INFILLED BY THE DEVIL and will declare himself to be God and the world will follow him.those who follow him or receive his mark on their foreheads or right hand will spend eternity in the lake of fire(Revelations Ch11:7,Ch13,Ch17,Ch 14.Pope John Paul 11 appears a very strong candidate for the post of the Anti-Christ,The Beast,666,even more so with the bonfire apparition.PLEASE WATCH OUT AND FOLLOW THE LORD JESUS CHRIST TOTALLY,HE IS COMING !!!!

Notice here that you are not attacked for your beliefs and opinions. This is one of Pope John Paul II's examples - to address the world with love and reason - to think logically and to respond with love - and in faith, to hope that by responding with love - we have joined him in the path to following Christ Jesus. Peace!

People do miss JPII. May our recollection of him continue to enkindle our faith in Jesus Christ.

I am non-denominational,like Jesus himself and the early church.I am God-ordained to be and am one of the 2 witnesses of Revelation 11:3-13

Mwangi,
So where is the other "witness" or prophet sent by God? Aren't you two a matched pair? By the way, how do you KNOW that you are God ordained?
In Truth,
Matthew

Mwangi,
Most of us who post on this site are sincerely concerned with seeking and/or sharing the truth...

You saying that you are one of the two witnesses mentioned in Revelation is to me a very disrespectful joke if not blasphemy to most who call themselves Christian...

I suspect when we do see and hear these witnesses the last thing they will talk about is themselves...
