Question 1: “Did the first Profiteers of Protestantism define the god they worshipped in Acts 5:27-32 and 40-41 when theyt ordered those who threatened their livelihoods to ‘Stop teaching in That Name (of Jesus)!)?
Answer: “They showed they were violating The first Commandment by putting the earthly structure of their livelihoods ‘before God’, they were also violating ‘Thou shall not kill’, and they wanted The First Pope and his Cardinal Bishops to ‘bear false witness’ and tell lies to hide their murder of Jesus.”

Question 2: “How did the first Catholics respond?”
Answer: “Thet set the example for persecuted Catholics for the next 2,000 years: ‘They left the presence of the Sanhedrin, rejoicing that they had been found worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of the name.’”

Queston 3: “Are persecuted Catholics still ‘rejoicing’ because they have been blessed by God to suffer for putting Jesus ‘before’ earthly concern?”
Answer: “For 2,000 years, Catholics have thanked God for giving them the faith to lead the greediest Profiteers of Protestantism to attack them for what is the greatest crime in their minds: obeying the First Commandment.”
Note: Today’s Reading ends with Jesus appearing to Peter and those Apostles who had gone fishing with him, and bringing 153 fish ashore in their net. That is explored in other posts that can be found by entering 153 fish into the “try a search” box that follows the current “articles” at the bottom of the page.

Today’s Simple Rhyme: “It’s good to catch fish to keep our body alive / But, it’s better to lead souls to The Church so souls may thrive.”
