History: God making things better for His People.
~
Question 1: “What did God do when He saw so many people follow Cain’s evil examples?”
Answer: “Forty days and nights of rain washed away all but those in the ark Noah obediently built.”
~
Question 2: “What was the result of the Flood?”
Answer: “Today’s Psalm 29: 1-4,9-10 describes what happened: ‘The Lord will bless His people with peace.’ He is enthroned above the flood and King forever.'”
~
Question 3: “After The Flood, how does God identify His chosen people?”
Answer: “John 14:23 is clear! ‘Whover loves Me will keep My Word,’ says The Lord, ‘and My Father will love Him and we will come to him.’ The Bible gives over a dozen verses explaining that Baptism frees the soul of Original Sin the way The Flood freed the world of those lost in sin.”

Question 4: “Did Jesus give another ‘word’ Catholics ‘keep’ that let the Father and Son ‘come to those who love Him’?”
Answer: “Catholics see that Jesus is beginning to teach about Catholic Communion in Mark 8:14-24. ‘Guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.’ He would tell them 12 times in the last half of John 6 and twice more at The Last Supper to ‘keep this Word’! ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’”
~
Question 5: “Did Jesus explain that His Catholic priests would provide His Body and Blood worldwide?”
Answer: “‘And do you not remember, when I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many wicker baskets full of fragments you picked up? They answered: ‘Twelve’. ‘When I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many wicker baskets full of fragments did you pick up’? They answered ‘Seven’.’”
~
Question 6: “Are Catholics able to answer the last question of Jesus: ‘He said to them ‘Do you still not understand?’”
Answer: “We realize that after 2,000 years, over a billion people on earth are Catholics who gratefully receive The Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Every time we go to Communion, we watch our priest put away ‘fragments’ left over for the Next Mass.”
