“Where am I? Where are You? In Group 1 OR Group 2.”

.                                              Jesus gives ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ to Group 1.

~
Question 1:  “What are the only two groups of people?”

Answer:  “Some choose live in Group 1.  It is defined by Jesus Christ:  ‘You are My friends if you obey My commands.’

~

Question 2:  “Who is in Group 2?”

Answer:  “Group 2 contains all who have chosen to live in disobedience to The Great Decree of Jesus Christ:  ‘And, I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.  I give you the keys of The Kingdom of Heaven; . .’

We must each choose to be among His obedient ‘friends’ or to not be among them.”

~

Question 3:  “Many people are confused.  Does being ‘confused’ give us an excuse to not be in The Only Church Jesus Christ Spoke Into Being with His Holy Word?”

Answer:  “St. Paul answered that in 2 Thessalonians 9-12.   ‘.  .  . there will be all kinds of miracles and a deceptive show of signs and portents and everything evil that can deceive those who are bound for destruction because they would not grasp the love of truth which could have saved them.‘ (emphasis added)”

~

Question 5:  “Is everyone in Group 2 among those  ‘who would not grasp the love of truth which could have saved them’?”

Answer:  “Yes.  Each person in Group 2 made this choice!  I decided that I ‘would not grasp the love of truth which could have saved’ me.’

~

Question 6:  “Why does God allow ‘everything evil’ to exist in Creation?”

Answer:   “The next verse tells us!  ‘The reason why God is sending a power to delude them and make them believe what is untrue is to condemn all who refused to believe in the truth and choose wickedness instead.’

~

Question 7:  “Is it ‘fair’ for God to test and judge souls who do not want to be tested and judged?”

Answer:  “God is God!  He made us with Free Will.  Therefore, we must choose to ‘believe in the truth’ or ‘choose wickedness instead’.”

~

Question 8:  “What is ‘truth’?”

Answer:  “The Catholics in Group 1 choose to believe that Every Word of God is a ‘truth’ that His obedient ‘friends’ will choose to ‘grasp’.”
