Is it possible to save our soul if we are not Catholic?
~
Question 1: “How do Catholics face life, death, and Judgment?”
Answer: “We read The Bible! We listen to The Prophets! They Predicted that God would take Human Form, be born in Bethlehem, and die to leave us ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ for our immortal souls.”
~
Question 2: “What keeps people from getting the ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ that Jesus Spoke Into Being On Earth with His Church-Creating Word to The First Catholic Pope: ‘And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.’?”
Answer: “The devil and his fallen angels want as many souls as they can to join them in hell. They lead everyone they can to put themselves ‘before’ God.”
~
Question 3: “How do the souls in hell spend eternity?”
Answer: “Some Catholics think souls in hell may spend forever tormenting the souls of those who led them there while they are tormented by those they kept from being among God’s ‘obedient friends’ in Heaven.”

Question 4: “That would be ‘justice’! Could there be ‘justice’ in hell?”
Answer: “Is it possible for God’s Justice to not rule there?”
~
Question 5: “How much time does a person need to get God’s Forgiveness for leading others into sin?”
Answer: “As much time as it takes to realize this and apologize: ‘God, I was wrong every time I put self-serving thoughts and desires ‘before’ You. In a few hours or days, my soul will leave my mind and body. How can I get Your forgiveness?'”
~
Question 6: “Catholics can get God’s ‘forgiveness’ from our Catholic priests. They are given This Power by God in John 20:23: ‘Those whose sins you forgive, they are forgiven. And whoever’s sins you retain, they are retained.’ Is there any other way that our sins may be forgiven?”
Answer: “In our final hours and days, we may recall the harm we did to others. We remember each of those sins, consider their results, and plead, ‘God, please forgive me!’ Most of us have enough time at the end of our life to regret not being Catholic.”
~
Question 7: “Will that get us into Heaven?”
Answer: “At that point in our life, we should be overjoyed at the possibility that God’s Mercy may let the awful pain of Purgatory make our soul pure enough for Heaven.”
