The Duty of Every Catholic is clear! Today’s Psalm 96:1-3, 7-8, 10 tells us to: “Proclaim God’s marvelous deeds to all the nations! Sing to The Lord a new song… Announce His salvation, day after day. Tell His glory among the nations… among all people, His wondrous deeds… He governs all people with equity.”
Then, Today’s “Alleluia” lets us see why The Most Blessed People in the World are Catholics singing “the new song”: “Our Savior Jesus Christ has destroyed death and brought life to light through the Gospel. Alleluia, Alleluia.”!
Catholics are blessed to obey Three Gospel Commands of He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies;
1. We obey His Church-Creating Word to His First Catholic Pope: “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.”
2. We receive Catholic Communion because Jesus told us fourteen times: “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”
From those Two Teachings of Jesus, Catholics correctly conclude: “The best thing I can do is Be Catholic and receive His Actual Body and Blood by God’s Miracle of Transubstantiation at every Catholic Communion. The Catholic Conclusion:
3. I will spend the rest of my life on earth trying to obey God’s Guiding Command for His People on earth: “Love God and love your neighbor as yourself.”
Today’s Gospel (Mt. 3:22-33) tells us that people who love themselves more than God don’t want anyone following 1, 2, and 3!
“The scribes who had come from Jerusalem (They symbolize all the anti-Catholics of the last 2,000 years) said of Jesus, ‘He is possessed by Beelzebub,’ and ‘By the prince of demons, He drives out demons.'”
Jesus then spoke to all who would reject 1, 2, and 3. “Summoning them, He began to speak to them in parables: ‘How can Satan drive out Satan?’ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, it cannot stand.”
Catholics know History! Every non-Catholic group has been dividing “against itself” from its beginning. Luther and Calvin invented two denominational marketing plans to justify the theft of 30 million acres of Catholic Churches, Monasteries, Convents, Schools, Hospitals, Inns, Farms, and Accommodations for the Poor. In the last 500 years, they have “divided” into 44,000 groups.
That “cloud of contradictions” infects many who suffer from “Confusion Headaches”, which are cured by respecting Jesus enough to “Be Catholic!”
There is an added “bonus” for Being Catholic! “Amen, I say to you, all sins and all blasphemies that people utter will be forgiven them. But, whoever blasphemes against The Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but is guilty of an everlasting sin.” For they had said, “He has an unclean spirit.”
The Big “Confusion Headache” for those who avoid The Catholic Church: “Are those who let themselves be led to think it is good to reject The Church Jesus Spoke Into Being 2,000 Years Ago ‘guilty of the everlasting sin’ of saying that ‘Jesus has an ‘unclean spirit’?“
