Pope Leo XIV declares "I am Roman" could he be Peter the Roman?

Pope Leo declared "I am Roman."  While his given or chosen name is not Peter, the first pope was named Peter.  

Could he be the famous "Peter the Roman" spoken of in the prophecies of St. Malachy?

Nostradamus said 'Peter the Roman' would be the next pope also.

"Michel de Nostredame — a French astrologist and soothsayer from the 16th century known as Nostradamus — is also said to have predicted that “Peter the Roman” will take over."

Pope Francis’ successor ‘revealed’ in ancient prophecy plucked from secret Vatican archives

What I want to know is why we're not in Post Last Pope times already.  It's very specific, foreign, old, and black.

There was no non-Italian pope for 450+ years, then Pope John Paul II from Poland becomes the "Foreign Pope."

He was succeeded by Benedict, who was 78 at election. If that's not an "old pope," especially in the 16th Century, I don't know what is.

Then came Mr. Black Pope, who has to be a Jesuit. Lo and behold, Francis becomes the first Jesuit pope following the old - that followed the foreign.  Though all following John Paul II have been foreign, and all have been pretty old. 

But there is no more precise ordering of the three in a row anywhere in papal history,  All 250+. Like right before Nostradamus time the Vatican had Adrian IV, who was Dutch, but he was succeeded by a 44 year old in Clement VII.

Of course, he might have meant something more figurative. Like by "foreign pope" and "old pope" he meant "new ideology" and "old ideology," and this was a way for  him to not be executed by the Inquisition for heresy.  Maybe all his prophecies were just veiled crap to not be killed and skirt the bounds of church doctrine enforcement?

Well, based on the timing He's a very good candidate for the position.

Hosea 6:2 predicts that Israel was to be cursed for 2 days/2000 years followed by a thousand year period of blessing.  If the death of Jesus Christ was the start of the curse then it's over in 2033.  Pope Leo has the timing down right.

But where is the anything in Hosea 6:1-3 about thousands of years?

Come, let us return to the Lord.
He has torn us to pieces
    but he will heal us;
he has injured us
    but he will bind up our wounds.
2 After two days he will revive us;
    on the third day he will restore us,
    that we may live in his presence.
3 Let us acknowledge the Lord;
    let us press on to acknowledge him.
As surely as the sun rises,
    he will appear;
he will come to us like the winter rains,
    like the spring rains that water the earth.”

While you can say it predicted Jesus and make assumptions, what assumptions are being made? 

You can interpret 1 day as also meaning 1000 years, and then infer Israel has 2000 years of spiritual death and will be awakened for 1000. 

... but I caution you THAT interpretation is steeped in Christianity and Islam as more of a cause of this 2000 years of spiritual darkness. 

But let's go with it.  I've heard 1 day = 1000 years enough. 

The timing is slightly off. 

Jesus was born shortly after the Judean census in 6 BCE during King Herod. The state execution of Christ was actually around 27 CE. Making 2027-2028 a more correct date. 

Much to the chagrin of the New Testament, there are interpretations which suggest the same thing that exonerates Israel after 2000 years could also expose what occupied that interim time.  It could all be connected a different way through a pre-christian lens. 

Christ (or belief in Christ) is the encapsulation of the metaphorical darkness that befell Israel and national identity. Then Islam. But with Christ starts the clock of spiritual death. His 2 days dead are the world's two thousand years dead. 

Consider...

"He has torn us to pieces" as meaning "into many religions and denominations. Into many waring interpretation and explicitly forbodden false idols."  (Technically) 

"After two days, he will revive us"

or After 2000 years of being torn many times over he will exonerate the Jews. 

Altogether, one can interpret the fulfillment of Hosea 6 as the (not literal) death of Christian/Muslim influence. Or more likely just the end of Israeli hatred. I don't see either other religion doing anything but growing, so maybe a global mindset (righteousness) change will occur.  Maybe even the end OF ANY ONE thinking they are any more correct than any others? One could hope..

But around 2027, according to this interpretation of Hosea, peace will come to Israel after the lord awakens everyone from the darkness of the previous 2000 years of fighting and Israeli diaspora dissolution.

It says somehow, in the next 3 years, Israel will gain global soveirgnty recognition, and the role of The Vatican, if we are to line up a "Last Pope" prophecy, will be severely downgraded or globalized into an amalgam of spirituality.

If that's the case, Francis was the last Pope before the 1000 years, which will begin during Leo, and bring with it the metaphorical Tower falling. That will bring us full circle back to Babylon, and Isaiah...

"How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!"

What if another tower built was Christianity and then Islam covered it in a bunch in gold... Hosea 6 might line up with revelation more than is comfortable.  

Learning The light of christ brought 2000 years of darkness truly is a REVELATION.

With lots of Norman Greenbaum Irony:

God isn't thought to take away one's freedom.  The darkness may be caused by people not wanting the light of Christ. The faith has been completely subverted by people wanting help with their chores.

The purpose of the faith has been lost by many.  What if some communities may prefer to withhold the help of Christ from certain members for the perceived good of the community?  They would naturally have to make sure there was complete abandonment of prayer and the faith.  What if they don't teach it properly or subvert what selected students know, or just do not save them?

It seems possible some people think the faith is useless darkness by design.  If they believed prayer protects, maybe they wouldn't be so easy to subvert.  

I suppose they may work hand-in-hand with the mob.  I suppose the mob may try to convince them that trading access to their soul in exchange for cash, drugs, and fun is a good trade even though they know the access is taking away the life they could have had as a private person.

The "Vasoline" video hints at a struggle session, and the hero starts out as an aristocrat, gets turned into a dancing clown, then gets flayed.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht672-wYelc PG graphics

This video may show what that's like except the second half is pointless CGI excess, & there is one slightly racy lyric: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mbBbFH9fAg  PG graphics

Maybe having to share with just anyone is a little bit like this:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57kHFXElTVI (some find this song a little disturbing.) 

Fun is said to wear off.  Some sources online even say that in the right amount and combinations, dopamine can be neurotoxic.  Maybe that's why these guys feel like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzJj5-lubeM

Whatever they say it's about, this song suggests regret at having to be in rock & roll: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRpZJ9EgJho (haven't seen the video; can't rate it.)

Come to think of it, what if someone insisted Norman Greenbaum create that song?

But where is the anything in Hosea 6:1-3 about thousands of years?

2nd Peter 3-8 and Psalms 90-4
8But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
4For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.

And don't forget this parable from Matthew 25.
13Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
14For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

And there's this prophecy from Luke 21
24And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

Except for a week or two at the end of the 6 day war Jerusalem has been under control of outsiders.  Even today the Temple Mount is ruled by Muslims. The times of the gentiles is still running. 

The predictions seem to be there would be a very long time after Jesus Christ before the Apocalypse occurs.  

Daniel 12.
6And one said to the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?
7And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
8And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?
9And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.


And one more thing about curses.
 9And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
11Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be utterly desolate,
12And the LORD have removed men far away, and there be a great forsaking in the midst of the land.
13But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.

The cursed ones are not supposed to know about being cursed.  It makes them stupid.

He prefers to be Italian, what is the problem?

[ntech]

Oh, and one more thing. 

I believe what the curse in Hosea was predicting was the death of John the Baptist. 

The Prophecy from Malachi 4.  5Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
 
Matthew 17.10And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?
11And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.
12But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them.
13Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
 
John the Baptist wasn't supposed to die.  But since he did then that means Jesus Christ became the one that struck the earth with the curse.  And the curse was the 2000 years from Hosea.  And that ties in the 1000 year reign of the saints from Revelation.  Day of Jezreel being Hosea's name for it.

It may have been God's will in jolting all of us into facing the harsh reality to turn ourselves from our natural destructive impulses... well we all know what our problems are. And we are still not facing our faults, nor are we working to correct them...much.
