May all be blessed to Think Clearly about The Power of Jesus to give us “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven” despite what demons do to keep us from choosing to have them.
~
Question 1: “Do demons have the power to hear and speak?”
Answer: “Today’s Reading from Mk 1:21-28 tells us demons can ‘hear’ and that they are able to ‘speak’ in two ways.”
~
Question 2: “What two ways can demons speak?”
Answer: “First, demons can make the people they control speak for them. ‘In their synagogue was a man with an unclean spirit (a demon). He cried out, ‘What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are, the Holy One of God!’”
~
Question 3: “What did Jesus tell the demon who was speaking through the person it possessed?”
Answer: “Jesus spoke directly to the demon: ‘Jesus rebuked him’! Then, Jesus gave the demon a Direct Order to show His Authority over demons! ‘He said: Quiet! Come out of him!‘”
~
Question 3: “Did the demon then speak for itself?”
Answer: “The demon gave voice to the anguish of being sent to hell with the other demons! ‘The unclean spirit convulsed him and with a loud cry came out of him.’”
~
Question 4: “What do we learn from what Jesus did to the demon?”
Answer: “We learn that demons hate for the minds of people they possess to hear Words of Jesus!”
~
Question 5: “Do demons hate those who encourage obedience to Words of Jesus?”
Answer: “The more obedient we are to Words of Jesus, the more they hate us.”
~
Question 6: “Whom do demons hate the most?”
Answer: “They hate Catholic priests!”
~
Question 7: “Why do demons hate Catholic priests more than anyone on earth?”
Answer: “Catholic priests are Ordained by God with The Power to turn bread and wine into the actual Body and Blood of Jesus Christ! Those who receive That Holy Food at the hands of Cathoic priests hobey The Call to Catholic Communion that Jesus repeated 14 times: ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’”
~
Question 8: “Do demons hate those who receive ‘life’ from That Holy Food?”
Answer: “Demons hate Catholics more than they hate those who believe only some Words of Jesus.”
~
Question 9: “What word of Jesus makes demons hate Catholics so much?”
Answer: “Demons hate anyone who respects Jesus enough to live by This Church-Creating Word from Him:
‘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.’”
~
Jesus died to give us ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’. They are His Way to escape the temptations of demons who want our souls to be tortured by them in hell.
Forever.
