Catholics understand what Protestants do not.

Catholics understand what Protestants do not.  He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies brought “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven” to earth.  Catholics are grateful.  We read with thanksgiving what Jesus said:   “Verily, verily 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.”

Ambitious men soon realized:  “I can start my own church!  Beats getting a job!”  As a result, Christendom is confused by the clamoring of 45,000 competing denominations.  Each promises “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”  The confusion comes from ambitious men with Marketing Plans and such colossal egos they can say with a straight face.  “I have the keys to Heaven!”

Those who invented their own Marketing Plans and Denominations understood one thing:  “We have to get around ‘Verily, verily 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.’   Anyone who takes Jesus seriously will think they have to be Catholic!  How do we get around what He said?”

They invented “The Rock Dialogues”.  They confused the meaning of “rock”.  By obsessively translating it into different languages, “rock” could mean whatever they wanted.  They could get around the clear words of Jesus:  “Verily, verily 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.”

All 45,000 Protestant denominations agree on two things.  1.  “The word ‘rock’ means whatever we want it to mean!”  2.  “Now, give me some money!”

Catholics understand what Protestants do not.
