Catholics know! Jesus gave Peter “the keys” that give Catholics “life” after “death”. J

Question 1. “How do we know that Catholic priests and religious are the most hated enemies of every ‘unholy vanity’ on earth?”
Answer: “History! Jesus and His First Catholic Bishops were killed by those who hated for people to follow God instead of them and their ‘unholy vanities’.”
~
Question 2: Does ‘unholy vanity’ drive people to hate everyone who chooses to be Catholic and get ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ that Jesus Christ left only to The Only Church He Spoke Into Being with His Holy Word?
‘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.’?”
~
Question 3: “History is clear! Almost 2,000 years ago, Nero, Diocletian, and many others were driven by ‘unholy vanity’ to attack The Only Church Jesus left on earth and kill Her Catholic priests, religious, and people.”
~
Question 4: “That was more than 1,700 years ago! Have Catholic priests and religious always been hated and attacked by those driven by ‘unholy vanity’?”|
Answer: “1,500 years ago, over 40,000 Catholics in North Africa were killed by Arian Protestants. 500 years ago, over 600,000 Irish Catholics were killed by Cromwell’s ‘unholy vanity’. In England, Wales, and Scotland, over a hundred thousand more Catholics were killed. Less than 300 years ago, 100,000-200,000 French Catholics were killed because they would not support the latest ‘unholy vanity’. Between 1931-39, those possessed by ‘unholy vanity’ killed 13 Bishops, 4,154 Catholic priests and seminarians, nearly 300 nuns, and 4,000 Catholic laymen in Spain.
Waves of Catholic haters wash over the world.”
~
Question 5: “Did that happen in other countries?”
Answer: “‘unholy vanity’ has attacked Catholics in Mexico, Cuba, Nicaragua, China, Venezuela, and every nation.”
For 2,000 years, Catholic priests, religious, and laity have given their lives for Jesus, His Church, and us!
~
Question 6: “What gives Catholics the strength to withstand 2,000 years of persecution?”
Answer: “Catholics are the only people on earth who Think Clearly about simple facts of ‘Holy Vanity’:
A. I have an immortal soul.
B. I want to get my immortal soul into Heaven.
C. To get into Heaven, I must spend my time on earth obeying Christ’s order: ‘Love God and your neighbor as yourself.’
D. ‘Holy Vanity’ lets us put The Simple Facts together. Catholics plead with Jesus that we may be forever among: ‘You are My friends IF you obey My commands.’”
~
May all be blessed to Think Clearly enough to have “The Holy Vanity” that leads Catholics to “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven”!
