Jesus was very clear:  only the obedient may be saved!  “You are My friends if you obey My commands.”

Catholics are obedient.  Catholics do what is necessary to obey the command that Jesus repeated fourteen times:  “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.” Therefore, our souls “have life in” them.  There are no zombies in Heaven!

Since we know that only the obedient may be saved, Catholics know we must obey The Only Church-Founding Decree of Jesus:

“. . 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. . .” are always attacked.

Catholics are blessed to realize that only the obedient may be saved.  We subordinate desires for status, popularity, and wealth enough to be in The Only Church Jesus Founded.

Not the disobedient!  There is one agreement among the disobedient.  “We do not need to obey Jesus!  We do what we think is right.”

Some believe that pretending to obey is the same as actually obeying!  The most bizarre people on earth believe they may get into Heaven by themselves. “I reject The Only Church Jesus Founded!  I decide which of the teachings of Jesus are worthy of being obeyed.”

That ridiculousness is magnified when they insist:  “Jesus loves me!  He has to let me into Heaven!”

That is sheer ego-mania.  It is self-worship!  It is absurd.  Still, billions of people believe they know more than Jesus, even while they proclaim:  “Jesus is God.”

The vain refuse to believe that only the obedient may be saved.  Catholics are blessed to do what Jesus said we must to “have life in” our souls.

We obey:  “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”  We know:

There are no zombies in Heaven.
