The Profiteers of Protestantism discovered The Power of Compliments!

Most of our opinions are influenced by others.  Catholics are blessed.    We let Jesus shape our opinions.  Catholics think Jesus is always right.

Catholics do not argue with Jesus.  We do not argue with His Holy Word.   Catholics are united in believing Jesus was right when He Spoke The Only Church He Founded Into Being.

“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.”

In the earliest days of The Catholic Church, a magician named Simon Magus realized:  “I can make money with this Catholic stuff!”  He was the first Profiteer of Protestantism.

Lots of Protestants popped up.  Each invented a way to make money by telling people:  “I can get you into Heaven!”  Soon, The Profiteers of Protestantism discovered The Power of Compliments!

“They will give you more money if you compliment them!”  So, Protestantism developed The Protestant Compliments.

1.. “You are smart!”

2.  “You are good!”

3.  “God has to let you into Heaven!”

4.  “I will keep telling you that as long as you keep giving me 10% of your income.  That’s in The Bible!”

Catholics understand what Protestants do not.  The Profiteers of Protestantism are working for Jesus!   Jesus was very clear about His Mission on earth.  “I come to divide.”

Jesus told us how He “divides”.  Jesus separates “wheat” from “weeds”.  He separates obedient “sheep” from willful goats.   His obedient sheep do not let themselves be led to disobey Him.

Many believe obedience is not important.   “Pastor Bob says  that I don’t need obey The Church-Founding Word of Jesus:  “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.”  Pastor Bob says that Jesus has to let me into Heaven!”

Those who willfully disobey Jesus keep their own souls from being among:  “You are My friends if you obey My commands.”

Jesus told us the price of willful disobedience.  John,  3:36: “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever disobeys the Son will not see life, but must endure God’s wrath.”

+

Catholics pray that our beloved neighbors will be blessed to understand.  If we obey anyone instead of Jesus, we are not among His obedient “friends”.

Judgment is nearer than we know.
