Question 1: “What is the ‘Profound Statement’ and ‘Hard Question’ in Isaiah 63:16-17?”

Answer: “Isaiah recognizes The Simple Truth about God in this ‘Profound Statement’! ‘You, LORD, are our father,
our Redeemer You are named forever.’

~

Question 2: “What is Isaiah’s ‘Hard Question’?”

Answer: “‘Why do You let us wander, O Lord, from Your Ways, and harden our hearts so that we fear You not?’

~

Question 3: “What does Isaiah ask God to do?”

Anwswer: “Isaiah asks God to ‘Return for the sake of your servants, the Tribes of Your heritage. Oh, that you would rend the Heavens and come down, with the mountains quaking before You, while you wrought awesome deeds we could not hope for, such as they had not heard of from old.’

~

Question 4: “Did God do what Isaiah asked?”

Answer: “Yes, after many other holy men and women had made the same request! Psalms 80:2-3, 15-16, 18-19 show: ‘O shepherd of Israel, hearken, from Your throne upon the cherubim, shine forth. Rouse Your power, and come to save us.’

Once again, O Lord of hosts, look down from heaven, and see; take care of this vine, and protect what Your right hand has planted The Son of Man whom You Yourself made strong.

May Your help be with the man of Your right hand, with The Son of Man whom You, Yourself made strong. Then, we will no more withdraw from You; give us new life, and we will call upon Your Name.’

~

Question 5: “Did God send ‘The Son of Man’ to ‘rend the Heavens and come down’ to earth?”

Answer: “That is what Jesus Christ did! He fulfilled Psalm 85:8. ‘Show us Lord, Your love; and grant us Your salvation.’

~

Question 6: “What do Catholics say to That word of God?”

Answer: “‘Alleluia, alleluia!’

~

Question 7: “Jesus Christ is The Son of Man! What did He tell those who are blessed to be in The Church He Spoke Into Being with His Word and get these ‘keys’? ‘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.’?”

Answer: “Catholics see this Instruction of Jesus about how important it is to obey That Word and keep ahold of His ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heacen’ for our immortal soul!

‘Jesus said to his disciples in Mark 13:33-37: ‘Be watchful! Be alert! You do not know when the time will come. It is like a man traveling abroad.
He leaves home and places his servants in charge, each with his own work, and orders the gatekeeper to be on the watch.
Watch, therefore; you do not know when the lord of the house is coming, whether in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning. May he not come suddenly and find you sleeping.’

~

Question 8: “What One Word did Jesus tell those whose souls would get into Heaven to obey?

Answer: “‘What I say to you, I say to all: ‘Watch!

~

Catholics who ‘Watch! will be protected from the apostasy of disobeying Any Word of Jesus Christ!”
