Catholics pray to not let Worldly Concerns lead us away from Any Word of Jesus.

“Question 1: “What are the ‘two roads’ that every person on earth must choose?”
Answer: “We may walk on God’s ‘Straight and narrow path’ or we may choose to join the crowds proudly parading down ‘the broad path to destruction.’”
~
Question 2: “Is that in The Bible?”
Answer: “Matthew 7:13-14 is clear! ‘Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it.’”
~
Question 3: “What keeps people from being on God’s ‘straight and narrow path’?”
Answer: “The next verse tells Catholics all we need to know! ‘Beware of false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.’”
~
Question 4: “Jesus has been gone from earth for 2,000 years. How do we find ‘the straight and narrow path’ and escape the ‘false prophets in sheep’s clothng’ that Jesus describes as ‘ravenous wolves’?
Answer: “Catholics know that Jesus loved us too much to leave us. He Spoke One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Into Being on earth with His Church-Creating Word in Matthew 16:18-20:
‘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.’”
His Catholic Church provides us with The Holy Food of Catholic Communion about Which Jesus told us 14 times: ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’ Jesus lives in Every Catholic who is blessed to obey His call.”
~
Question 5: “Do Catholics have another reason to be Catholic?”
Answer: “Jesus made This Promise to His First Catholic Bishops that is still honored by Catholic priests and religious: ‘I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’. His Catholic Clergy can give those ‘keys’ to us!”
~
Question 6: “What lets us know that Catholic priests and religious are not ‘false prophets in sheeps clothing’?”
Answer: “Catholics know This Simple Fact: Catholic priests and religious are the only clergy who respect The Example Jesus set when He chose Holy Vows of Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience.”
~
Question 7: “Why don’t other clergy follow The Example of Jesus and spend their time on earth obeying Holy, Catholic Vows of Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience?”
Answer: “The clergy of other denominations agree on One Thing: ‘We know more than Jesus Christ about how to live our life on earth.’”
~
May all be blessed to find and stay on “The Straight and Narrow Path” and have His “life in us”, forever!
