. A Catholic Question: Will we, like Ezekiel, carry our cross to the “rebels”?
Catholics, and many Protestants, know! Obeying God makes some people hate us! Ez. 2:2-5 explains:
“As the LORD spoke to me, the spirit entered into me and set me on my feet, . . . “
Question 1: “Did Ezekiel stand at attention when The Holy Spirit spoke to him?”
Answer: “Yes!”
~
Then, Ezekiel told us what God told him 500 years before Jesus Christ Fulfilled The Messianic Prophecies! ” . . . and I heard The One Who was speaking say to me: ‘Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, rebels who have rebelled against Me; they and their ancestors have revolted against Me to this very day.”
Question 2: “Will I encourage my “rebellious” neighbors to obey Every Teaching of God?”
Catholics answer: “That is our job on earth.”
Willful Protestants: “It is enough to believe in God.”
~
God described those who willfully chose to “rebel” against His Teachings. “Hard of face and obstinate of heart are they to whom I am sending you.”
Question 3. “Are Willful Protestants in every Age both “hard of face and obstinate of heart”?
Catholics answer: “Willful Protestants are “hard of face”, even when they are smiling!
Willful Protestants: “It is enough to say ‘I believe in God.’ Don’t bother me with your ‘obey Every Word’ nonsense!
~
God told Ezekiel what to tell them about Every Word of God! “But you shall say to them: Thus says the LORD GOD! And whether they heed or resist—for they are a rebellious house—they shall know that a prophet has been among them.”
Question 4. “Do “rebels” against God exist so He can separate His obedient sheep from willful goats?”
Catholics answer: “Yes!”
Willful Protestants: “God has to let me into Heaven!”
~
Question 4: Does God want us to encourage today’s “rebels” to obey This Teaching of God? “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.”?
Catholics answer: “It is our duty to encourage obedience to Every Word of God.”
Willful Protestants: “We want you Catholics to be quiet!”
