Catholics have been blessed!  We know!  Every Teaching of Jesus Christ is an Instruction to every person on earth.   We strive to obey The Instructions given by He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies!

Every Catholic has a Mission!  8.   We tell our beloved Protestant neighbors what St. John told us about the most important thing on earth!

1 John, 3:22-24 tells us two things are necessary to get into Heaven.    “Beloved:  We receive from him whatever we ask, because we keep his commandments and do what pleases him.”
“And His commandment is this:  we should believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another just as He commanded us.”
All Protestants believe the second sentence!
Catholics congratulate our beloved Protestant neighbors!   “You are blessed to  ‘believe’!  You have taken the first step toward Heaven!”

It is important to understand what  St. John told us:  Obedience comes bef0re “belief”.

“Those who keep (“keep” means “obey“!) His commandments remain in Him, and He in them, and the way we know that He remains in us is from the Spirit whom He gave us.”

Jesus Christ did repeat one “commandment” fourteen times.   Every Catholic “keeps” that “Commandment”!

“If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”

That Teaching is one of His “commandments”!    There is no logical way to avoid that.

Protestants are not being logical to “believe” while living in “disobedience” to Any “Commandment” of Jesus Christ.

Obedience connects to “we know that He remains in us”!    Every  Catholic receives “the Body and Blood” of Jesus Christ when we receive Catholic Communion!   The Miracle of Transubstantiation lets “the Body and Blood” of Jesus Christ “remain” in us!

Only Catholic priests are Ordained as Living Links with The First Catholic Bishops!   Jesus Christ gave them The Power to Provide His Body and Blood at every Catholic Mass with This “commandment” to them!   “Do this in memory of Me.”

How do Catholics know that?    By receiving Catholic Communion, we receive “the Spirit whom He gave us”!

Is that a “circular argument”?    Yes!    It is a circle so big that it takes in all of Time and Space!

No Protestant can logically argue with that!
