Catholics know the only meaningful “success” is having our name written in “The Book of Life” that Jesus will read at our Final Judgment.
~
Question 1: “Everyone wants to be ‘successful’. What is ‘success’”
Answer: “500 years ago, the Latin word ‘successus’ was used to define ‘an advance, a coming up; a good result, a happy outcome.’”
~
Question 2: “What is the ‘happiest outcome’ that a ‘successful’ person may have?”
Answer: “Having our immortal soul ‘coming up’ to Heaven! Our soul is The Living Spark of Life that begins every human life at conception. Our mind and body were downloaded around it. Each of us is a living reflection of our original ‘Living Spark of Life’.”
~
Question 3: “Is getting our own ‘Spark of Life’ into Heaven the most important ‘success’ a person can have?”
Answer: “Our ‘Spark of Life’ will never die. Every soul will spend eternity in one of two places. Souls in Heaven live in never-ending joy. Other souls end up forever in the agonies of burning in The Lake of Fire.”
~
Question 4: “Which souls succeed in living forever amid The Joy of Heaven?”
Answer: “At Judgment Day, every person’s ‘Book of Life’ is read. Those whose names are ‘written in God’s Book of Life’ (Rev 20:12) are allowed into Heaven’s Joy, forever.”
~
Question 5: “How may we succeed in having our names ‘written in God’s Book of Life’?”
Answer: “Those whose names are written in ‘God’s Book of Life’ meaningfully obeyed The Great Command of Jesus: ‘Love God and love your neighbor as yourself.’”
~
Question 6: “That’s all there is to getting into Heaven, ‘Loving God and loving our neighbors as ourselves.’?”
Answer: “God is Truth. Jesus Christ is God’s Living Truth in human form. If we love God, we respect The Truth of His Prophecies that were Fulfilled in His Son, Jesus.'”
~
Question 7: “How can we succeed in showing God that we love Him?”
Answer: “Love shows itself in obedience. The most meaningful Love of God leads us to obey The Word with Which He Spoke One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church into being and give Catholic priests 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.’”
~
Question 8: “Why doesn’t everyone love God meaningfully enough to be in His Church?”
Answer: “Only Catholics succeed in knowing that God let His Living Truth come to live in us in Catholic Communion. Willful Protestants do not succeed in putting obedience to God before their personal opinions.”
~
Question 9: “Why do only Catholics succeed in having His Living Truth come to live in us?”
Answer: “Catholics succeed in understanding that God’s Power lets His Catholic priests change bread and wine into The Actual Body and Blood of Jesus Christ by The Miracle of Transubstantiation that takes place at every Catholic Mass.”
~
Everyone wants to be “Successful”! Only Catholics succeed in meaningfully understanding that Every Word of God took living form when Jesus Christ was born where The Prophet (Micah 5:2) predicted it would happen. He Spoke His Catholic Church Into Being with The Power to provide the souls of His obedient ‘friends’ (John 15:14) with The Seven Catholic Sacraments.
Meaningfully believing in Jesus lets Catholics succeed in getting our immortal souls into Heaven.
