Pope Benedict XVI's Helicopter Ride to Castel Gandolfo

The pope lifts off in a white helicopter bound for the papal summer residence at Castel Gandolfo.

God bless you Pope Benedict...🙏❤

[@UnRoman111]

God Bless Benedict. I think Germans are proud. They should be. A simple, humble, smart theologian. I am Eastern Orthodox and i respect Benedict.

[@Tristanks]

My religion teacher and her son were there at that time, and they actually had no idea this was going on. They suddenly saw and heard a bunch of people cheering while they were chilling in a café

[@pepko466]

God Bless Him...

[@foxnewsfanify]

I have great love for this man; one of the most humble servants to Christ ever to walk the Earth. Here was a man who chose to be a private scholar, yet God chose to make him into a Draft Animal. He became one who took a lot of the hits for JPII and was happy to do so. That was humble subservience to the Holy Father. He did not seek and did not want to be Pope, yet he accepted with grace and humility. Watch his first words from the balcony. God Bless you Holy Father, long may you live. Cars.

I like that the blade of the helicopter is five-sided. Get it?

[@GagarinCCCP]

Merci Benoit XVI pour ton service.

[@blaisevincent2620]

God bless pope Benedictxv1..Amen.. Yeshu Namathil..

[@JoseGAyala-lf7cx]

😢 sad and prophetic moment 😢

[@relrel310]

Watch this with the Mission Impossible theme in the background

[@kalmykdude]

I'm surprised the helicopter is not gold plated.

[@wafflegod2605]

Crazy I assume, it has been while.. The last time it happened, I don't believe a helicopter was present.

[@PoeticCyrano]

Fear? I am a Catholic .. I do not fear the church. We respect our leaders and we recognize their fallibility. However as Christians we believe in forgiveness and repentance. The second .. third and seventy times seventh chance to repent and come back into the fold. We are a family .. we do not disown our own. We help them recognize their fault and attempt to help them not to sin again.

Carson Zickefoose: Well said!

[@Szarko32c]

I see AMI replaced old Sea King with AW139. It's pretty much like US president retirement.

[@roscomeon3965]

Thoughts and prayers with Benedicts widow Georg. Sad times for him losing his widow Georg

[@donp133]

... not like Berlusconi who would resign and come back, resign again and come back and keep doing it against his fellow citizens.

[@damexipino]

that looks like one CEO that couldn't, or wouldn't, fix a company...

[@thefairobserver97]

These people has ALL care! So, he has a personal physician...!

[@RobinE12345678910]

Um yeah it kind of does. Thanks!

[@garyconner6151]

He gave the funeral service to pope John Paul Il

[@foxnewsfanify]

And by the way, he did not step down because he was "afraid" of being arrested. That is rubbish and total ignorance on the part of those who say it. He stepped down for two reasons. One, he remembered how HE basically ran things the final years of JPII's life due to his declining health, and he knew that was WRONG and did not want to put the Church in that position. The other was more simple. His doctors no longer cleared him to travel long distances. A Pope must do that, and he could not. Cars.

[@razhelman134]

I'm proud to be a Catholic.

Mea Culpa .. I did misunderstand. My apologies. Have a nice day.

[@rusda2]

scads of servants, 2 palaces, bullet proof popemobile, private jet & private helicopter...WOW, just like Jesus!

[@Isaiah122]

I quoted you Jesus and the Apostles: (Luke 22:19) And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in [remembrance] of Me.” The Apostle Paul (1 Cor 11:24-25) He broke it and said,“This is My body, which is for you;do this in remembrance of Me.” In the same way He took the cup also after supper, saying,“This cup is the new covenant in My blood;do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

[@RobinE12345678910]

Im not here trying to offend anyone ...but what does the Pope do exactly?

[@b8a33021]

need some CCR Fortunate son playing in the background, and in a fucking HUEY

[@Isaiah122]

Context is the key component you’re missing. If you read in context and co-text, John 6 is clearly not pointing towards a Romanist Eucharist of transubstantiation for propitiation of sins, this doctrine of idolatry is directly opposed by the text and co-text of the Bible. Context: (John 6:63-64) It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life. But there are some of you who do not believe.

[@PoeticCyrano]

It is a very easy question. Christians are not holy. We are very human. We falter .. we make mistakes . we learn .. we repent . .we seek forgiveness .. we try not to fall into sin again. The faithful live in a world filled with temptation .. they are human .. they fail themselves and Christ .. however .. with guidance and in communion with our fellow Christian, we realize our folly and we return contrite and the Spirit helps us heal those we hurt and even ourselves.

[@imax1971]

In context Jesus was talking about dirty hands? Why, because the topic of dirty hands was brought up at the beginning of the chapter? LOL! Clearly you don't want to hear what he said. He said it in Mk 7:14 and reiterated it just a few verses later when his disciples questioned what he meant.. In verse 18 he made it clear that nothing that enters a person's mouth can defile them. You hear what you want to hear in regards to the bible. Case and point: Your interpretation of Mt 24:20.

[@rusda2]

yes, 'nothing' in the context of DIRT & yes dirty hands. He was saying that, unlike what the Pharisees taught, which was that eating with dirty hands 'defiled' them, that eating with dirty hands or getting a little dirt on ur food does not defile u. there is nothing about diet in that verse. actually it is u who ignore context & cherry pick. where did He mention unclean animals are now ok to eat? why is it ok in the NT to eat unclean but was NOT ok in the OT? God/Jesus do not change.

[@TheSmithDorian]

Remember, "let he who has no sin cast the first stone." But Jesus didn't say this did he. It's not in the gospels of Mark, Matthew and Luke. It's not in the oldest surviving manuscripts of the gospel of John and it's not in the oldest surviving near complete copies of the Bible, it doesn't appear until hundreds of years after the gospel of John was first written - when your Catholic Church demonstrated its disregard for the sanctity of Holy Scripture by inserting it.

[@Christabbaword]

Eunuchs: Brothers and sisters of my father Jesus Peace be with you! Amos 8:14 Those who swear by the sin of Samaria-- who say, 'As surely as your god lives, Dan,' or, 'As surely as the god of Beersheba lives'-- they will fall, never to rise again." Luke 21:36 Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man (JESUS SON)."

[@PoeticCyrano]

MCK .. come on mate .. that is such a weak generalization.

[@Isaiah122]

It's a magnificent jump in logic and exegesis of the Scriptures to read Jesus’ words, “He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life”, to the Romanist Eucharist idolatry of a priesthood magically transforming bread into the literal Jesus Christ for a bloodless sacrifice. Many scriptural problems with this belief: (Heb 9:22)...and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. Also the Apostles tell us not to partake of blood. Rome says its real blood...Someone is wrong.

Generalization.

Oh really, what are you a mind reader.

[@supermacs1]

the Mercedes pope.

[@macauvoice]

yes....HOLINESS FOR EVERYONE...EVEN FOR NON-CHRISTIANS.....

[@jslasher1]

Holiness, haha! Nastiness is more appropriate.

[@SmoutchTV]

The Pope and her majesty the Queen of England are the best examples of Gods servants, The pope will be missed and by the way the pope still uses his twitter and also Her majesty has one. So yeah he made the right decision to resign because any old person has the right to retire from their office

[@marymoore545]

He was a great and very humble Pope hope he is having a good rest. He never wanted to be Pope he wanted to retire and go back to his beloved homeland Germany

[@jslasher1]

Rubbish! A Nazi of the highest order. May he rot in Hell.

[@rusda2]

BTW...your 'loving witness' will draw no one to your cult.

[@Isaiah122]

Derbarisax - I understand that you [believe] in the Romanist Eucharist and transubstantiation. The problem is, Christ Jesus and the Apostles, didn’t teach this heretical doctrine. Jesus and the Apostle Paul’s words: Its an act of [remembrance]! 1. We find no mention in Scripture of: A special priesthood, bread becoming Christ, etc. 2. Wine cannot be real blood to a Christian! The Apostles commanded ALL CHRISTIANS NOT EAT or DRINK BLOOD (Acts 15:19)! Who’s wrong, the Apostles or Rome?

[@heatherthomas5875]

RIP

[@TheSmithDorian]

"Christianity, in its most basic form, is belief in the Trinity.." No it isn't. Belief in the Trinity is (if anything) a basic constituent of post Nicene Creed Catholicism but it certainly doesn't define 'Christianity'. The term 'Christians' was first referred to in Acts 11 when it was applied to the disciples and again in Acts 26 when it was applied to Paul. At that time nobody was teaching the Trinity and it's unlikely that Paul or the disciples ever believed in it.

[@PoeticCyrano]

generalization.

[@Isaiah122]

What are the works of God? (John 6:28-29) Therefore they said to Him, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?” [Jesus] answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you [believe] in Him whom He has sent.” James was speaking of dead faith, not salvation. The Apostle Paul confirms this: (Eph 2:8-9) For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.

[@nathanielramos8713]

Hahaha the cardinal is like yes it’s my turn to be a pope 😂😂

[@thruthofjesus]

I Dont know who this"man" is......but I do know who Jesus is:)

[@Isaiah122]

Jesus said this was an act of remembrance: (Luke 22:19) And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in [remembrance] of Me.” The Apostle Paul confirms it is only an act of remembrance: Please read - (1 Cor 11:24-25). No RCC Mass being an unbloody sacrifice to forgive sins and a special priesthood magically turning bread into the literal Jesus Christ. This total Pagan Idolatry!

[@Isaiah122]

First, let me ask you, do you believe the Bible is the Holy Word of God? Second, can God save anyone, even a murderer and an adulterer? Are you a murderer (See below)? Jesus said, “You have heard that the ancients were told, ‘YOU SHALL NOT COMMIT MURDER’ and ‘Whoever commits murder shall be liable to the court.’ But I say to you that everyone who is [angry] with his brother shall be guilty before the court…shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell (Matthew 5:21-22).

[@pacificrules]

I'll always look know benedict as a Coward, for not protecting the weak and poor against the ravenous wolves of priest who sexually abused children.😡😡😡😡

[@Isaiah122]

(Matthew 16:4) An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. So your Jesus is reduced to being a piece of bread? You do understand the Romanist Eucharist of transubstantiation doesn’t agree with Scripture, Christ and the Apostles? According to Rome, Jesus’ death only allows you to redeem yourself, through participation in the Romanist sacraments and ultimately the final cleansing fires of purgatory. Is this the Gospel of the Apostles and Scripture or another gospel? Its Another!

[@jajajajaja2000]

The Holy Catholic Church has been and always will be the object of attack but as said . Jesus in Matthew 16:18 ------> and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it ------> and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it im Catholic so what?

[@michaelcipriano1713]

Preach the gospel? I've never heard a pope preach the gospel. I've never heard a gospel message from a Catholic priest or church actually. Do they know the gospel? I don't think so. This organisation has its roots in Paganism.

[@rusda2]

if you are muslim, you are still catholic. the catholic church created islam, they are almost identical twins.

[@Isaiah122]

Catholicism is not and never was Christian! Romanism has a resemblance of being Christian but its teachings are actually far removed from Jesus and the Apostles teachings. Catholicism reduces Christ to a piece of bread, which is supposedly magically transformed by Romanist priest (Many of which are homosexual). It reduces the sufficiency of Jesus’ death on the cross to being an act that allows a Catholic to [justify themselves] through sacramental works. Its another gospel and its not Christian!

[@rusda2]

are you tired of this yet? I am. there is no point to it except for you to show your hatred of me & laugh at me and call me names. I have already figured out that you hate me (sorry about that) so no need to press the point ok? I dont hate you. but i am not about to change my beliefs to match up with RCC 'theology'. so why continue? I am about done with this.
