Leo XIV Continues Francis’s Distorted Vision for the Church in First Exhortation 'Dilexi Te'
The Vatican today published Pope Leo XIV’s first Apostolic Exhortation, Dilexi Te (“I Have Loved You”).
The document employs rhetoric influenced by Marxist social theory and presents “care for the poor” as the Church’s primary mission. Divided into five chapters and 121 numbered paragraphs, it is notably shorter than most recent papal texts.
Leo XIV writes that the text was started by Francis: "I am happy to make this document my own — adding some reflections — and to issue it at the beginning of my own pontificate, since I share the desire of my beloved predecessor that all Christians come to appreciate the close connection between Christ’s love and his summons to care for the poor."

More doublespeak & hypocrisy - it's all $$$$ money with this crowd We just saw that before this Leo rescinded Francis "reforms' on Vatican investments. Plus last month we had the 'partnership' between Disney & the Holy See. NOW Leo wants to con us to believe that it's 'for the poor' when it looks to me IMO that he's been bought off by powerful globalists!
Cardinal Michael Czerny, at a Vatican press conference releasing Leo's text, says Pope Francis felt the attacks he experienced were "always a sign that he was actually doing something..." The criticisms included that he was a "Marxist" or "Communist". Czerny said: "the problem is not Pope Francis’ or Pope Leo’s, the problem is the attacker."
So let’s all go along to get along eh? No thinking on our part, just obedience…just pay and pray…not what Jesus did ….who actually gave himself as a ransom for all…So Leo, give up pretending you care, we see through the empty words that liberation theology is still holding you by the throat, to the detriment of everybody
“In every rejected migrant, it is Christ himself who knocks at the door of the community”
That's the problem with these universal salvation proponents, since they believe ALL are saved then ALL are "Christ" despite whether they are sinners living an evil lifestyle or a saintly faithful Catholic. Like Francis said: totus, totus, totus.
