The Next Pope

Crisis and Division Haunt Francis’ Successor

The next pope will face a Catholic Church in crisis.

Pope Francis’ tenure has been one of controversy, upheaval, and division.

Now, in the wake of his passing, the world asks: Who will be the next pope?

The next pope will have a monumental task — to either restore the faith to its traditional foundations or continue Francis’ progressive and divisive vision.

The battle for the soul of the church is underway.

Newsmax’s exclusive cover story, After Francis: The Next Pope, reveals the shocking truths behind Francis’ leadership and the candidates vying to replace him.

Will the cardinals elect a leader who will heal the fractures within the church, or will they double down on modernism?

We have the inside story.

A PONTIFICATE IN TURMOIL

Francis was elected on a mandate of reform, but his changes have left the church more divided than ever.

His papacy welcomed LGBTQ+ unions, weakened doctrinal authority, and shifted the church’s focus on leftist globalist policies.

Many Catholics feel abandoned, as Francis sidelined traditionalist clergy and courted approval from progressives who do not even practice the faith.

The fallout has been immense: declining church attendance, confusion in doctrine, and internal strife among bishops.

Under Francis, the Vatican formed close ties with the UN and global elites, pushing progressive agendas rather than focusing on the spiritual crisis gripping the faithful.

His reluctance to confront China’s persecution of Christians and his secretive 2018 deal with Beijing have sparked accusations that he has betrayed Catholic principles for political gain.

But the biggest battle is still to come.

With Francis’ passing, his influence is waning, and his successor will determine the church’s future.

Will the next pope return to tradition or continue down the path Francis paved?

WHO WILL BE THE NEXT POPE?

The coming papal conclave will be one of the most consequential in history.

Several names are in the mix, and the differences could not be more stark:

• Cardinal Peter Erdo (Hungary): A strong conservative voice who would restore doctrinal authority and reverse many of Francis’ changes.
• Cardinal Willem Eijk (Netherlands): A firm defender of Catholic teachings and a leader against secular influences.
• Cardinal Pietro Parolin (Vatican Secretary of State): A Francis ally who would continue his progressive policies.
• Cardinal Matteo Zuppi (Italy): A left-leaning candidate focused on globalism and social justice.
• Cardinal Raymond Burke (U.S.): A bold traditionalist who has openly opposed Francis’ deviations from church teaching.

Who will the College of Cardinals choose?

And what will it mean for the 1.3 billion Catholics worldwide?
