Pope Francis warns the Church to be cautious about the spiritual worldliness that can occur in the Church, which can be open the doors to the action of the devil in people’s lives.
“Do not forget that the worst evil that can occur in the Church is spiritual worldliness. I can say that it almost seems worse than sin because spiritual worldliness is that very subtle spirit that takes the place of proclamation, of faith, of the Holy Spirit,” said the Pope. The Holy Father reminds the faithful to flee from spiritual worldliness. The Pontiff was meeting the religious who participate in the 24th Chapter of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians.
