Many snicker at “Repent! The End is Near!” Most of us want to keep doing what we enjoy. “I want what I want when I want it!” There are popular ways to avoid thinking about our unrepentant soul spending eternity in agony:
1. “We do not have souls. When we’re dead, we’re dead. That’s all there is to it.”
2. “I know that I’m a ‘good person’. If there is a God and Heaven, I’ll be there!”
3. “My soul is going to Heaven because I believe in Jesus and The Bible!”
4. “I will make a ‘Deathbed Confession’ and repent before I die. Until then, I’ll just keep doing what I want. Why should I waste time being ‘good’ before it’s necessary?”
Those who make money from human vanity foster such beliefs. “If you give me money, I’ll promise you that you look good, smell good, are intelligent, and going to Heaven! I’ll tell you whatever you want to hear! Just give me some money!”
Catholics know that He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies is the promised Messiah. “Jesus fulfilled the prophecies. I will obey Him.”
What did Jesus say about life in this world and the next? He repeated His bizarre call to Catholic Communion 14 times: “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”
At The Last Supper/First Catholic Mass, Jesus changed bread and wine into His Body and Blood. He ordained His Apostles with the power to ordain others with the same awesome power.
Catholics know the most important words in the language are: “Repent! The end is near!” We obey He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies and find Absolution in The Only Church whose priests He ordained with this miraculous power: “Those whose sins you forgive on earth are forgiven in Heaven.”
Catholics play it safe!
