2. ‘He will also appoint from among them his commanders of groups of a thousand and of a hundred soldiers.

Question 5: “Why did people give up their faith, freedom, and families by following ambitious men instead of God?”
Answer: “They were too vain to heed God’s Prophets! ‘The people, however, refused to listen to Samuel’s warning and said, ‘Not so! There must be a king over us. We too must be like other nations, with a king to rule us and to lead us in warfare and fight our battles.’

Question 6: “What happened?”
Answer: ‘When Samuel had listened to all the people had to say, he repeated it to The Lord, Who then said to him, ‘Grant their request and appoint a king to rule them.’”

Question 7: “What should Catholics do when we realize that our nation is ruled by those who work to destroy our Faith, Freedom, and Families?”
Answer: “For 2,000 years, Catholics have ‘chosen’ to be ruled by The King of Heaven. We begin by obeying His Decree: ‘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.’”
