Catholics know: Jesus still saves souls from demons, even demons of disobedience.

Question 1: What do demons do?”
Answer: “Today’s Catholic Reading includes 1 Thessalonians 2:13, explains that demons keep people from respecting God: ‘Receive the Word of God not as the word of men, but as it truly is, the Word of God.’”
~
Question 2: “What ‘Word of God’ does every demon want every person to disobey?”
Answer: “Every demon wants the person he is assigned to attack to reject grateful obedience to The Church-Creating Word of Jesus 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.'”

Question 3: “Does The Bible tell us of demons keeping targeted souls from the great joy of having ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’?”
Answer: “Today’s Reading from Mark 1:21-28 tells us what Jesus did when ‘He went into the synagogue at Capernaum with His followers and a man with an unclean spirit 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 4: “What did He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies do?”
Answer: “Jesus did not speak to the possessed man! He spoke to the demon! ‘Jesus rebuked him (the demon may be a spiritual male) and said ‘Quiet! Come out of him!’”
~
Question 5: “What do Catholics learn from that?”
Answer: “We find ourselves echoing what the witnesses said: ‘What is this? A new teaching with authority. He commands even the unclean spirits and they obey Him!’”
We may also wonder if demons are male, since And, we see that every temptation to ignore God comes from demons! Life is simple for Catholics. Confession and Absolution from a Catholic priest Ordained in Living Link with The First Pope repairs the damage demons do to our soul when we stray from God’s Desire for us to be as Catholic as we can.
Then, The Body and Blood of Jesus restores His life in us with The Miracle of Transubstantiation that has fed Catholics with The Actual Body and Blood of Jesus since The Last Supper.

Question 6: “Why doesn’t everyone who reads The Bible become Catholic?”
Answer: “Demons tell the usual lies: ‘You know more than Jesus about getting into Heaven.’ Other souls are lost when demons tell them: ‘Jesus has to let you into Heaven.’ The gullible are taught: ‘Ony trust people who think like you do.’ Many are vulnerable to this demonic vanity: ‘Neither God nor His Son could Empower One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church to provide anything but the illusion of Catholic Sacraments.’”

Today’s Simple Rhyme: “The Prophets made it clear, / The Son of God is near. / Now, Jesus Christ we see, / He makes the demons flee!”
