Catholics sometimes repeat The Willful Protestant Mantra.

“Follow me! I know more than Jesus!”

~

Question 1: “What stops people from Thinking Clearly enough to obey This Word of Jesus, be in His Church, and get His ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’?

‘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.’

Answer: “Confusion lets people think they are good ‘Christians’ while they refuse to obey many Teachings of Jesus Christ.”

~

Question 2: “Where does that confusion originate?”

Answer: “Confusion comes from those who say ‘I know more than Jesus Christ about getting ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’!”

~

Question 3: “Does that confusion take form in words in the human mind?”

Answer: “Every willful disobedience to Any Word of Jesus Christ comes from this demonic vanity: ‘I know more than Jesus Christ about that.’

~

Question 4: “Are Willful Protestants the only people confused by that demonic vanity?”

Answer: “Catholics are among the confused if we repeat some variation of ‘Follow me! I know more than Jesus Christ.’ when we are tempted by a soul-endangering desire.”

~

Question 5: “What happens when people live by The Willful Protestant Mantra?”

Answer: “Problems! Every problem on earth is caused by people who proudly repeat: ‘Follow me! I know more than Jesus Christ about that!’

~

Question 6: “What happens when more people repeat ‘The Willful Protestant Mantra’ about a specific issue?”

Answer: “‘I’ becomes ‘we’. Groups of people begin repeating ‘We know more than Jesus Christ about that!'”

~

Question 7: “What happens when let our souls sink into the sea of self-righteousness that keeps us from loving God and our neighbor as ourselves?”

Answer: “We have a harder time getting ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ from Jesus at His Judgment.”

~

Question 8: “Why does the I know more than Jesus!’ vanity make it difficult, if not impossible, to get into Heaven?”

Answer: “That vanity is a direct violation of The First Commandment! Those who repeat The Willful Protestant Mantra put their opinions ‘before’ God.”
