Bob’s Your Uncle *- Pope Leo XIV

*Bob's your uncle" is a British idiom which means, "there it is

The death of Pope Francis after his twelve-year pontificate initiated all the wheels of pageantry, intrigue and mystery of the process to select a new pope. Tens of thousands of social media pages and channels focused on Rome, waiting for the puff of white smoke from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel. Major news channels around the world offered free live coverage of the conclave. Breathless anchors analyzed every nuance from the Vatican.


The global focus and elaborate ceremony is calculated to perpetrate the myth that popes, and the Papacy itself, are invested with some great authority and deserves honor and recognition from the world. The media charade is effective, wouldn’t you say? Revelation 13:3 says the world will wonder after the beast, and it certainly is.

But the truth is that the pope is simply a man, just like Bill or Bob down the street.


We now know the name of the man selected to be the next pope. His name is Robert Prevost, and he was born in Illinois in 1955. But a change of name is part of the mysteries of Rome, so “Robert Prevost” will be henceforth referred to as “Pope Leo XIV”, and “His Holiness”. According to the Vatican, Bob from Chicago is now the representative of Jesus Christ on earth. Since Jesus Christ is holy, now it is claimed that Bob is holy. It is said that he has the keys of heaven and earth, and is the successor to Peter (who the Papacy self-servingly claims was the first pope).


All of this is blasphemy of the highest order, and is why the Bible unmistakably points to the papacy as “the man of sin”:


Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;


Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God – 2 Thessalonians 2:3, 4. See also Daniel 7, and the little horn power described in verses 24, 25, and Revelation 13:5-8.


Mr. Prevost’s election as pontiff was announced by the cardinals with the words, “habemus papum”, translated literally from the Latin, as “we have a father.” The word “pope”, in English, comes from the word, “papa”, in Latin. The word “papa” means “father. By this, the cardinals, who are the so-called princes of the church, are announcing to the world that it has a spiritual father once more. But Jesus warned us clearly not to refer to mere men as “father”, because we have a Father, and He is in heaven – Matthew 23:9. The throne of God is never vacant – He is the Everlasting Father, and He is our Father, not Mr. Prevost from Chicago.


What does it take to draw the attention of the entire world at the same time, to the election of one fallible man for a religious position? What does it take to perpetrate a global fraud? It takes money. Coordination. An agenda. And a power from beneath. The dragon gave his power, seat and great authority to the Papacy – Revelation 13:2.


So what can we expect from the pontificate of Pope Leo XIV?


Nearly everything the Vatican does has some symbolic meaning, and the assumption of the name “Leo” by Robert Prevost is no different.


The last time Leo was used as a papal name was when it was used by Leo XIII, in his pontificate spanning the years 1878-1903. Leo XIII wrote the encyclical Rerum Novarum, the infamous anti-capitalism treatise on unions and workers’ rights. Leo XIII was known as “the Pope of the Workers”, and it seems likely that Leo XIV will continue the narrative of qualifying and curtailing individual rights in favor of implementing what the Papacy decrees to be the “common good”. A connection to watch will be papal support for principles and aims of Project 2025, and the initiatives in that document to harness the political power of labor unions, including by enforcing a mandatory weekly day of rest on the papal Sabbath, commonly known as Sunday.


It should be remembered that it was during the papacy of Leo XIII that America had its Sunday law crisis in 1888, where national legislation was introduced by Senator Blair to compel observance of the papal Sabbath. This effort, which ultimately failed, was the culmination of the work of the National Reform Movement to combine church and state in America, a work which is mirrored by today’s New Apostolic Reformation, and its efforts to take control of the so-called seven mountains of societal influence.


It ought not to be forgotten that it was Leo X who excommunicated Martin Luther, and demanded to have him delivered to Rome to face the Inquisition.


Conclusion:


It has long been said that there never would be a pope from the United States because of the global influence America already has.  This has now suddenly changed, and is a solemn indicator of some momentous push requiring maximum political and religious clout.

Part 1 When the Heritage Foundation proposed to penalize employers who operated their businesses on Sunday by requiring them to pay workers time-and-a-half wages, thereby “encouraging” Sunday closing, there were Bible prophecy watchers who took note. The proposal was detailed in the document entitled, “Project 2025”, and was released to coincide with the election which would culminate in the election of Donald Trump as President. On January 8, 2026, the Heritage Foundation released a further and much more explicit document calling for the enforcement of Sunday blue laws for the good of the nation. The document appeals to lawmakers to “re-establish a shared day of rest for American workers” and to “protect Sunday as a day of rest, reflection, and family time.” The proposal can be read here . If you think the Heritage Foundation is irrelevant, think again. Tom Homan, Russel Vought, John Ratcliffe, Jonathan Berry, Karolyn Leavitt, Brendan Carr, Stephen Navarro, Stephen Miller, and many more, are all from the Heritage Foundation. Newsweek stated in March 2025 that at least 31 people linked to Project 2025 had been given government roles. i In addition, nearly 30% of Republican members of Congress employ at least one former Heritage staffer. That’s a whole lot of influence. That same Heritage Foundation claims that Sunday blue laws are necessary for the good of America so that it can prosper for the next 250 years. It is calling on government, the same government that has so many of its members in official positions, to compel the observance of Sunday. But Sunday is a common workday. It is one of the “six days thou shalt labor”, according to the Bible in Exodus 20:9. Yes, most of Christianity honors it as the “Lord’s Day”, but it’s the papacy who claims to have the power to change the Sabbath from the seventh day to the first day of the week, ii and keeping Sunday sacred is honoring “lord god the Pope”. But that is not stopping so-called Christians from calling to impose their dogmas on American society using state power. Make no mistake – this quickly growing relationship between the church and state is a fulfilment of Bible prophecy. Religious leaders are wooing the state, and the state is wooing them. Trump showered religious leaders with remarkable promises in order to get re-elected: He would restore Christianity’s influence in American public life and protect religious freedoms; He would bring God back into the public square, and reverse the decline of religion under the Biden administration; He committed to specific policy actions, including establishing a task force to combat “anti-Christian bias,” supporting school vouchers for religious schools, ending the contraception mandate from Obamacare, and appointing anti-abortion judges to the federal courts, including the Supreme Court; He promised to repeal the Johnson Amendment, allowing churches to endorse political candidates without losing tax-exempt status; He promised to defend Christian symbols like the cross; He emphasized alignment with evangelical priorities, such as opposing transgender participation in women’s sports, supporting prayer in schools, and displaying the Ten Commandments in public classrooms; and He framed his campaign as a "righteous crusade" to restore America as "one nation under God," appealing to conservative Christians by portraying himself as a protector of their values and a tool for national spiritual revival. He did not stop there. At a Turning Point USA event in July 2024, Trump informed the gatherers that if they vote for him in 2024 election, "in four years, you don't have to vote again." iii He said, "Christians, get out and vote, just this time.” "I love you Christians. I'm a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote.” "In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote." You won't have to do it anymore... We'll have it fixed so good, you're not going to have to vote." Now, and somewhat parenthetically, you would think that any candidate’s election promise to end all elections once in office would be absolutely fatal to that candidate’s chances. In any sane world, that would create alarm bells that would shatter the ear drums of a people who value their liberty and their right to self-determination. But you would be wrong. And we do not live in a sane world. Sanity got left fifty stops back. The political abuse of the left has created an unquenchable thirst for power in Christian circles. They are done with turning the other cheek. Climate change, abortion, gay marriage? Atheism, secularism, transgenderism? It’s payback time. Forget, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. No. That is finished. Now its, “Do unto others as they did unto you.” That’s not the golden rule, folks. That’s the law of iron. “You made our kids to listen to your trannies in the library? Now your kids will listen to our priests and pastors. Ever hear of eternal hell? Well, you will. Tax dollars funded your woke public school programs, now they will fund our Old Time Religion.” “You aborted millions of babies? Now your women will be chained in the kitchen, unable to vote, iv and they will make baby after baby after baby.” “You said there was no God? Now you will go to church instead of Walmart, because guess what? Walmart is closed on the Lord’s Day.” The Heritage Foundation claims forcing people not to work on Sunday will save America, but forced religious observance has always created oppression and hypocrisy, which is why America dispensed with it at its founding, and constitutionalized a strict separation of church and state. In Europe, and later in the American colonies, cruelty and oppression marked the enforcement of religious laws by the state. “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion”, states the First Amendment. They had seen the oppression firsthand. Enforced idleness also breeds crime. Idleness. Abuse. Dissipation. Gainful work that might be done is criminalized and persecuted on the basis of religion. Crime stats rise significantly on the weekends because people are idle. The Heritage Foundation hides the cruelty in its proposals. They omit the ugly and tyrannical result of their compulsory Sunday laws. Civil laws impose punishments for their breach. Historically, people who worked on Sunday were fined and imprisoned for breach of blue laws. They ended up on chain gains, imprisoned, and executed. Eventually, the Bible states that all who will not accept this “mark” of the authority of the beast, Sunday sacredness, will be prohibited from buying and selling, and condemned to death – Revelation 13:15. The beast system is being built to impose the mark of the beast. Even secular non-religious people call the digital cage being constructed around us “the beast system”. Bible prophecy, so long ignored, so long doubted, is being fulfilled.

As ecumenical dialogue sweeps the planet and the Protestant denominations return to their mother, as Revelation 17 prophesied, we wish to remind the remaining Protestants on the fence of the history of the Reformation: please remember your history, and who you are thinking of going back to. At the heart of the Reformation, is the issue of sola scriptura. The Bible is the Word of God. It is the sole rule of faith. The Papacy has always put itself above the Word of God. Like the serpent of old, it says, “hath God said?”, and insinuates itself between man and God. The Pope “opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.” – 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Nothing has changed in the Papacy. The change is in Protestantism. Please consider where you are going before it is forever too late.

The following remarkable interview occurred this week between Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller and CNN’s Jake Tapper. The discussion involved the capture of Nicholas Maduro of Venezuela, the fate of its enormous resources, and growing imperialistic intentions targeting the island of Greenland.
