A few weeks ago I set out on a series of articles through which I am
scanning the history of the church—from its earliest days all the way to
the present time—to examine some of Christianity’s most notable false
teachers. Along the way we have visited such figures as Arius, Joseph Smith, Ellen G. White and Norman Vincent Peale.
Today we will look at a man who commands more followers than perhaps
any other person in the world: Jorge Mario Bergoglio, known also as
Pope Francis.Pope Francis
Jorge
Mario Bergoglio was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on December 17,
1936, the first child of Italian immigrants Mario and Regina. He
graduated from college as a chemical technician and pursued that career
for a short time before entering seminary at the Diocesan Seminary of
Villa Devoto. On March 11, 1958 he entered the novitiate of the Society
of Jesus and over the next decade studied and taught in a variety of
disciplines. He was ordained a priest in December 1969 and made his
final profession with the Jesuits in April 1973. Continue at Tim Challies
