(No, u will not literally find the words Jesuit Order in the bible.) This question is not meant to strike fear in people ("God did not give us a spirit of fear..." - 2Timothy 1:7) but rather help us to better understand bible prophecies while spreading God's love (if u don't truly know about the subject, u won't understand what I am saying here....but get understanding). I'm looking for biblical answers that will help to open the eyes of God's people. Please list any sources. The bible tells us to watch....(Matthew 25:13). We do not know the day or the hour of Christ's return, but He did give us signs. (1Corinthians 16:13) - "Watch! Stand firm in the faith! Be courageous! Be strong!" .....God bless you in Jesus' name. 1 love.

The answer above talks about the Jesuits.

There have been three African popes:
• St. Victor I (189-199)

With love in Christ.

The Society of Jesus (Latin: Societas Iesu (S.J.)) is a Christian religious order of the Catholic Church in direct service to the Pope. Its members, known as Jesuits have been called "Soldiers of Christ", first, and "Foot soldiers of the Pope", second, in part because the Society's founder, Saint Ignatius of Loyola, was a soldier before he became a priest. Today, Jesuits number 20,170 (with 14,147 priests), and comprise the largest religious order of men in the Catholic Church (the Franciscan family of OFM's, Capuchins, and Conventuals has approximately 31,899 members, of whom 20,786 are priests; however, the "family" consists of multiple orders). Jesuit priests and brothers are engaged in ministries in 112 nations on six continents. Their works are focused on education and intellectual contributions, primarily at colleges and universities, as well as missionary work and ministry in human rights and social justice.

There is no Black Pope. The conspiracies atributed to the Jesuits are a result of anti-Catholic bigotry.
