We begin, and end, as our soul.

Our soul is a tiny being, smaller than the . at the end of a sentence.   It came into being at the moment of our conception when each one of us was the size of the .  at the end of a sentence.  Our spirit, mind, and body grew around our soul in The Miracle of Our Own Creation.

Our soul will often spend about “three score years and ten” in its body.   When we die, our soul will go to judgment.  We begin, and end, as our soul.

Some souls will go to unending joy.  Others, to eternal pain.

Many do not want to be bothered.  “I enjoy my life.  I am a good person.  I am going to Heaven.”

Hundreds of prophecies predicted that Jesus would be born of the Tribe of Judah, House of David, of a virgin, in Bethlehem.  The time of His birth was predicted by Daniel, and understood by the Wise Men.   The Messiah would “be lifted up before men”.  “They will look on Him Whom they pierced.”  “No bone of His would be broken.”  He would “rise from the dead”.

Jesus wanted souls to go to Heaven.   He said to one man, one time: 

Then, He said something bizarre, and repeated it eighteen times!   “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”

That was His clear call to Communion in The Only Church He Founded.

It is sad that many try to save their souls by honoring Jesus in a church He did not found and avoiding the bread and wine that He empowered His Catholic priests to transform into His Body and Blood.

According to Jesus, they “do not have life in” them.  Therefore, our immortal soul is better off if we live, and die, Catholic.
