The Blasphemous Lie: The Pope is NOT God on Earth
The claim that the Pope is “God on Earth” is a theological distortion that contradicts Scripture and the teachings of Jesus Christ. This article exposes a series of papal declarations—from Ferraris to Leo XIII—that elevate the Pope to divine status, and rebuts each with biblical truth. Jesus alone declared, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me” (Matthew 28:18). The article affirms that Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, as the Spirit-Paraclete, has come to correct this deception and restore the true headship of Christ. The fire of truth has been cast. The illusion is crumbling. The Spirit is here.
The claim that the Pope is "God on Earth" is a direct affront to the truth of the Holy Scriptures and the authority of Jesus Christ. The following statements made by various popes, Catholic documents, and theologians are not only false but blasphemous. Let's analyze and dismantle these outrageous assertions one by one.
1. “The Pope and God are the same, so he has all power in Heaven and earth.” – Pope Pius VThis statement is a blatant contradiction of Jesus’ own words in Matthew 28:18, where He declares, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me." No mere man, not even a religious leader, can claim equality with God. To equate the Pope with God is an act of idolatry and spiritual deception.
2. “The Pope is of so great dignity, and so exalted that he is not a mere man, but as it were God, and the vicar of God.” – Ferraris Ecclesiastical DictionaryNo human being, regardless of their title, can claim to be "as it were God." Isaiah 42:8 declares, "I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols."
3. “The Pope takes the place of Jesus Christ on earth… He is the true vicar… the supreme judge of heaven and earth… God himself on earth.” – New York CatechismJesus Christ Himself is the head of the Church (Colossians 1:18). No Pope can replace Him. Christ alone is the mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5), and for any man to claim such power is the height of arrogance and blasphemy.
4. “All names which in the Scriptures are applied to Christ… all the same names are applied to the Pope.” – On the Authority of the CouncilsThis is an outrageous attempt to usurp the titles of Christ. John 14:6 states, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." Not through a Pope!
5. “The Pope is as it were God on earth, sole sovereign of the faithful of Christ, chief of kings, having plenitude of power.” – Lucius Ferraris, Prompta BibliothecaRevelation 19:16 declares Jesus as "King of Kings and Lord of Lords." No Pope, no priest, no man can take this title upon himself. The audacity of the Catholic hierarchy to proclaim such a thing is beyond comprehension.
6. Roman Canon Law 1685: “To believe that our Lord God the Pope has not the power to decree as he is decreed, is to be deemed heretical.”If this is not the definition of idolatry, what is? The Bible commands us in Exodus 20:3, "You shall have no other gods before Me." The Catholic Church dares to place a man in the position of God Himself, leading billions into deception.
7. “The Pope is crowned with a triple crown, as king of heaven and of earth and of the lower regions.” – Lucius FerrarisThis assertion is an unbiblical, pagan distortion of true spiritual authority. No human rules over heaven, earth, or hell—only God does. Daniel 4:35 says, "He does according to His will in the host of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth; and no one can ward off His hand or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’"
8. “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” – Pope Leo XIIIThis is the height of arrogance. Jesus Christ alone holds the place of God Almighty. Isaiah 44:6 declares, "I am the first, and I am the last; besides me, there is no god."
9. “The Pope is the supreme judge of the law of the land… He is not only a priest forever, but also King of kings and Lord of lords.” – La Civilta CattolicaOnly Jesus Christ is called King of Kings and Lord of Lords (Revelation 19:16). The Pope's claim to this title is nothing short of heretical.
10. “No man can be or remain in Christ’s Church who does not accept and obey the authority and supremacy of the Pope.” – Pope Pius XIThis contradicts Scripture directly. The true Church is made up of believers in Jesus Christ, not followers of a man. John 10:27: "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." We follow Christ, not the Pope!
Conclusion: The Pope is NOT God on Earth
Every one of these claims is an attack on the sovereignty of God and the authority of Jesus Christ. The Pope is a man—sinful, fallible, and subject to the same judgment as all humanity. Romans 3:23 declares, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
To place the Pope on the throne of God is blasphemy of the highest order. Let those who seek the truth turn to Jesus Christ alone, the true head of the Church, the Alpha and Omega (Revelation 22:13), and the only one who has the authority to rule heaven and earth.

“The subject of papal heretics and papal excommunication is little practiced since 1870. Even the arrogant Innocent III admitted: 'I can be judged by the church for a sin concerning matters of faith.' Innocent IV affirmed that all creatures were subject to him as Vicar of the Creator, even, as in his own words: "Of course a pope can err in matters of faith.” Therefore, his naive creatures are to believe not because the Pope believes but because the Church believes. In simpler language, even if popes err somehow, the Church will not err. These words appeared in the original text of Innocent IV's Commentary on the Decalogue. They were later erased from later editions. No one knows why, since a number of popes said more or less the same.
The aura and awe surrounding the papacy today is so entrenched that few Catholics question their conscience about the history of papal infallibility, a long dark, mysterious mixture of humans — the normal pious, the obscenely pompous, the truly mad, the frightfully murderous, the devilishly lecherous, the senilely elderly, the lustily youthful, and immature children. These popes were fallible long before they became infallible. Roman pontiffs not only erred but erred in fundamental matters of Christian doctrine.
Most Catholics go through life and never hear in school or church a word of reproach for any pope. Yet a devout Catholic like Dante had no scruple about dumping pontiff after pontiff in the deepest pit of hell.”

The Blasphemous Lie: The Pope is NOT God on Earth
The claim of the Pope to be God on Earth is not only blasphemous but a direct contradiction of Scripture and historical Christian doctrine. The arrogance displayed in the papacy's self-deification is unparalleled, and no greater indictment exists than the very words of its own so-called 'Vicars of Christ.'
Peter de Rosa, in his scathing exposé, Vicars of Christ: The Dark Side of the Papacy, uncovers the undeniable truth: the history of the papacy is riddled with corruption, error, and outright heresy. He highlights the absurdity of papal infallibility by pointing out that popes themselves admitted their potential for error. Innocent III, despite his towering arrogance, acknowledged that he could be judged by the Church for matters of faith. Innocent IV even conceded that the Pope could err in faith, though later Vatican revisionists attempted to erase this damning confession from history.
Yet, despite the glaring contradictions, the Catholic faithful are still subjected to a carefully curated narrative that shields them from the papacy’s grotesque history. The Church has presented a seamless illusion of sanctity, suppressing the reality of pontiffs who were not only fallible but outright heretical, murderous, corrupt, and depraved.
De Rosa further dismantles this myth by pointing out that even devout Catholics, such as Dante Alighieri, had no qualms about condemning pope after pope to the lowest depths of hell. The medieval poet's Inferno serves as a historical rebuke of the many pontiffs who embodied greed, corruption, and moral bankruptcy—men who claimed divine authority while wallowing in the filth of their own sins.
The doctrine of papal infallibility, a late invention formalized only in 1870, is nothing but a desperate attempt to enshrine absolute authority in an institution that has repeatedly proven itself unworthy of trust. If the Pope were truly infallible, how could history be filled with popes excommunicating each other, contradicting doctrine, and engaging in scandalous debauchery? How could the Church justify the crimes, murders, and theological blunders of its so-called 'holy fathers'?
The answer is simple: it cannot. The papacy is built upon a foundation of deception, and the cracks in its structure are too evident to be ignored. No matter how much Catholic scholars attempt to whitewash history, the truth remains—men who claim to be 'God on Earth' have been, more often than not, the furthest thing from divine.
It is time for all who seek the truth to reject this monstrous lie and turn to the true head of the Church—Jesus Christ alone.

A Scathing Critique of the Catholic Church: Prince of the World and Betrayal of Paraclete
"The Catholic Church, founded three centuries after Jesus Christ’s ascension, stands as a monument not to the promised Paraclete, but to the machinations of the Prince of the World. Jesus Himself warned, “I will no longer talk much with you, for the Prince of the World is coming. He has no claim on Me” (John 14:30). Yet, the Church has spent two millennia insisting that the events of Pentecost fulfilled the promise of the Paraclete, a catastrophic misinterpretation that has led to centuries of darkness, corruption, and scandal."
The Coming of Jesus in the Paraclete
"The theological discourse surrounding the Paraclete—the one whom Jesus promised at the Last Supper—remains one of the most profound mysteries of Christian eschatology. Many have struggled to reconcile the identity of the Paraclete with the Holy Spirit traditionally understood within Christian doctrine. However, a deeper and more precise exegesis, drawing from both scriptural sources and theological analysis, reveals that the coming of Jesus in the Paraclete signifies a distinct, divine personality arriving in the Age to Come—one who completes the mission of Christ."
The Betrayal of Shri Mataji: A Divine Tragedy
"The story of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi and her disciples is a harrowing tale of betrayal, denial, and abandonment that echoes the tragic narrative of Jesus Christ and His closest followers. Just as Judas betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver and Peter denied Him three times, Shri Mataji’s disciples—her supposed Sahaja Yogis—have committed a far greater betrayal. They have reduced her divine mission to a mere system of chakras, rituals, and mantras, obscuring her true identity as the Paraclete, the Comforter sent by God in the name of Jesus Christ."
The Paraclete Shri Mataji: The Fulfillment of the Spirit’s Work in World "The role of the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, as described by Michael Welker, reveals a profound understanding of divine intervention in human affairs. His insight that the Spirit acts as the revealer of “judgment” upon the ruling powers of the world resonates deeply with the mission and work of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, the Paraclete sent in this age. Through her revelations, teachings, and transformative spiritual experiences, Shri Mataji fulfills the prophecy of the Spirit’s active role in unveiling truth, exposing falsehood, and guiding humanity toward collective awakening."
