Jesus warned us about The Profiteers of Protestantism! In John 10: 1-10, Jesus said: “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever does not enter a sheepfold through the gate but climbs over elsewhere is a thief and a robber.”
Jesus tells us that “thieves” and “robbers” do not use “the gate”. They “climb over elsewhere” to get among the sheep.

Jesus makes it clear that His Catholics priests are the authorized “shepherds”. Catholic priests go through “the gate”! They are ordained in living link with Christ’s Ordination of The First Catholic Bishops!
None of them “climbed over” from outside! Every Catholic priest met this requirement of Jesus:
“But whoever enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens it for him, and the sheep hear His voice, as the shepherd calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.”
Catholics “hear His Voice“! Every Catholic hears This Word of Jesus echo through the Ages!
“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.”

The Words of Jesus are designed to drive willfully disobedient goats away!
“When He has brought out His flock, He goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him, because they recognize His voice. But they will not follow a stranger; they will run away from him, because they do not recognize the voice of strangers.”
It is clear! His “sheep” are chosen! His Catholic “sheep” ignore the “strangers, thieves and brigands”.
Jesus lets Catholics understand. “I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture. A thief comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy; I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly.”

His obedient “sheep” obey!
Willfully disobedient goats do not. We pray they may be blessed to understand Fact Number One:
“Every Word of Jesus Is Truth.”
