Catholicism?
Vicar of Christ
Antichrist

Vicar of Christ is the term used in different ways, with different theological connotations throughout history.
As the original notion a vicar is of "earthly representative of God or
Christ" but also used in sense of "person acting as parish priest in place of a real parson"
The title is now used in Catholicism to refer to the bishops and more specifically to the Bishop of Rome (the pope).
Papal supremacy is the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church that the pope, by reason of his office as
Vicar of Christ and as pastor of the entire Christian Church, has full, supreme, and universal
power over the whole Church, a
power which he can always exercise unhindered:
that, in brief, "the Pope enjoys, by divine institution, supreme, full, immediate, and universal
power in the care of souls."
The Church is the mother of all believers. "No one can have God as Father who does not have the Church as Mother"
These Catholic doctrines are all about power.
The Catholic authorities try to place themselves between God and the people. The idea of an earthly representative of
God or
YHWSO is contrary to God's Word...
According to the Scriptures nobody comes to God except through His Son
YHWSO. Clear language.
The Scriptures teach that any person on earth can build a personal relationship with God through His Son.
Not by intervention of any other human being or organization. Despite this Scriptural fact practically all Christian denominations present themselves,
their organization or their leader, as representatives of God or His Son. They represent the
Christian LORD and the
Christian Jesus who are easily identified as creations of
Satan in order to mislead mankind.
Pontifex Maximus

The Pontifex Maximus (Latin, literally: "greatest pontiff" or "greatest bridge-builder") was the high priest of the College of Pontiffs in ancient Rome.
This was the most important position in the ancient Roman religion ... it gradually became politicized...
the title of "Pontifex Maximus" was applied within the Roman Catholic Church to the Pope as its chief bishop.
The pope wears the pagan title Pontifex Maximus.
To the Roman Empire succeeded the Papal Monarchy. The Pope called himself Pontifex Maximus.
The Roman Catholic Church is a continuation of the Roman Empire, especially its power.
Tiara

The papal tiara is a crown that was worn by popes of the Catholic Church from as early as the 8th century to the mid-20th. ...
The papal tiara originated from a conical Phrygian cap or frigium. ...
The words that were used when popes were crowned were: Accipe tiaram tribus coronis ornatam, et scias te esse patrem principum et regum,
rectorem orbis in terra vicarium Salvatoris nostri Jesu Christi, cui est honor et gloria in saecula saeculorum
("Receive the tiara adorned with three crowns and know that thou art father of princes and kings, ruler of the world,
vicar on earth of our Saviour Jesus Christ, to whom is honour and glory for ever and ever").
A conical or cilindrical cap or crown adorned with two or three rows of horns indicates the divine
or semidivine nature of the h.
The tiara also appears in the Coats of arms of the Holy See and Vatican City.
It symbolises rulership over the whole world. According to
Church Vestments: Their Origin and Development by Herbert Norris
it has its origin in the
Phrygian cap which is also worn by the pagan god
Mithra. This is confirmed by
Britannica.
What's for sure is that such hats are common in pagan cultures and symbolize power. See also for example
crowns of Egypt.

O Horus, meet me, for I wear the
White Crown, the
Eye of Horus wherewith one is strong. (Utterance 524)
The White Crown of Egypt is most similar in appearance to the tiara.
The Pyramid Texts describe the nature of the pharaoh as
Horus during his lifetime. The
Eye of Horus is a symbol of
power.
Be like God?

And I saw a great white throne and Him who was sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.
And before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures,
covered with eyes in front and in back.
The great white throne described in the Scriptures is
Almighty God's throne. During the
celebration of the Vespers of the Solemnity of the Conversion of Saint Paul
the pope is sitting on a white throne between two
cherubs and four other Vatican puppets. This is pure
blasphemy.
Since the very beginning people have been deceived by
Satan to be like gods.
Antichrist

The word "antichrist" combines two roots: ... (anti) + ... (Khristos).
[anti] can mean not only "against" and "opposite of", but also "in place of".
A vicar is a representative, deputy or substitute; anyone acting "in the person of" or agent for a superior.
"Vicar of Christ" means "substitute of Christ". The Greek word
anti does not only mean "against" but also "in place of"
(see Strong's Concordance: 473. anti).
So the word Antichrist can mean "opposite of Christ" or "instead of Christ".
It is obvious that the pope, as the "Vicar of Christ", puts himself in the position of Christ on earth and at the same time he opposes the Word of God given in
John 14:6.
So the pope fits the description of an antichrist bothways.
