Catholics pray: “God, please let my ‘Jesus Receiver’ hear and obey You.”
~
Question 1: “What do Catholics ask God to let our ‘Jesus Receiver’ do?”
Answer: “Catholics learn from Today’s Catholic Reading, Phil 2:12-18. That Bible Passage gives us God’s Direct Order: ‘work out our Salvation with fear and trembling’.
We ask God to let the ‘Jesus Receiver’ in our mind ‘work out my Salvation with fear and trembling.’”
~
Question 2: “Why do Catholics ‘fear and tremble’?”
Answer: “Our ‘Jesus Receiver’ lets us know that if we do not meaningfully seek His Mercy, we are left with His Justice! Catholics are intelligent enough to ‘fear and tremble’ when we think about that!”
~
Question 3: “What should we ask God to let ‘The Jesus Receiver’ in our mind understand about ‘fear and trembling’?”
Answer: “God, let me be pleasing enough for you to let my immortal soul possess ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ that you died to leave to The First Catholic Pope with Your Church-Creating Word:
‘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.’
‘Please, Jesus, save my immortal soul from the awful pains of Purgatorial Purification and the endless agony of hell.’”
~
Question 4: “Does thinking about the suffering of souls in Purgatory and hell reduce us to ‘fear and trembling’?”
Answer: “Any one who does not ‘fear and tremble’ at the thought of forever suffering the greatest pain there is does not respect God and His Word enough to be worthy of His Mercy.”
~
Question 5: “How do we know we do not have to live in overwhelming ‘fear and trembling’ about punishment after death?”
Answer: “Every Catholic’s ‘Jesus Receiver’ is helped by The Seven Catholic Sacraments and advice and counsel from Catholic priests and religious who love us so much they take Holy Vows of Poverty, Celibacy, and Obedience to prove their love for us.”
~
May every person’s “Jesus Receiver” be blessed to let us “fear and tremble” about the consequences of not “loving God and our neighbor as ourselves.”
