“For every life lost, every family deceived … you will have to appear before divine justice. ” “Repent while there is still time,” he said, invoking the Catholic belief that someone who did evil in life must confess their sins and make amends or be sent to eternal hell in death.
This is not the first time the Pope has addressed mass immigration or the career criminals driving it.a global response to the “tragic drama” of migration and said world peace was a “true global imperative. ” He called for “safe and legal pathways” for immigration and for migrants to be given “a respectful welcome and real opportunities for integration”.
