The Vatican and Israel have signed an agreement to normalise relations and exchange envoys. Vatican officials said the agreement aimed to give the R.C. Church an official status and legal identity in Israel. It would
also open the way for a visit to Israel by the Pope as he is keen to visit Jerusalem. No doubt the Pope has his eye on Jerusalem. The Israeli Government would do well to keep its eye on the activities of the Roman Church within its borders. The Pope and his underlings are far from being the messengers of peace which they pretend to be. Rev. Lachlan MacKenzie predicted that the time would come when the Pope would sit on Zion hill. Time will tell whether his prediction is to be fulfilled.
