Question 1: “What is The Psalm that obedient believers have connected with us for 3,000 years?”
Answer: “‘Col 3:1-11 told Catholics what we must do 2,000 years ago! ‘Brothers and sisters: If you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Think of what is above, not of what is on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ your life appears, then you too will appear with Him in glory.’”

Our Response: ‘The Lord is compassionate toward all His works.’
