. Jesus lets us all see His Prophecies. Catholics are blessed to see why we should Think Clearly enough to obey Every Word of Jesus.

Question 1: “What ‘Frightening Prophecies’ of Jesus Christ came true?”
Answer: “Jesus predicted that the huge Temple in Jerusalem would be utterly destroyed in Luke 19:41-44. ‘For the days shall come upon you when your enemies will throw up a bank before you, and surround you, and hem you in on every side, and will level you to the ground and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not recognize the time of your visitation.’”
Jesus repeated His Prophecy later in Lk 21:5-19. ‘While some people were speaking about how the temple was adorned with costly stones and votive offerings, Jesus said, “All that you see here–the days will come when there will not be left a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down.’”

Question 2: “How big was The Temple in Jerusalem?”
Answer: “Its grounds and buildings covered 30-35 acres. Huge stones, some of them 40 long, were carefully quarried, cut, carved, and stacked to build one of the biggest buildings in the world.”
~
Question 3: “Did Jesus prophesy when that would happen?”
Answer: “Jesus said ‘All that you see here, . . .’ Some of the people who were there with Jesus would be alive 40 years later. They, and all the world, would ‘see’ The Temple destroyed.”
~
Question 4: “Was His Prophesy so important that Jesus repeated it?”
Answer: “Yes, in Matthew 24:1-3. ‘You see all these? I tell you not a single stone will be left on another, everything will be destroyed.’
Jesus repeated His Prophesy about the destruction of The Temple another time! Mark 13:1-3. ‘. . and Jesus said to him, ‘You see these great buildings? Not a single stone will be left on another; everything will be destroyed.’”
~
Question 5: “There is no question that His important Prophesy came true! There were thousands of early Catholics in Jerusalem who followed The Disciples. What happened to them?”
Answer: “Jesus gave another Prophecy that came true in Luke 20:21-22. ‘But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then recognize that her desolation is at hand. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are in the midst of the city depart, and those in country districts must not take refuge in it.’
The Catholics in Jerusalem were told by The Church Fathers to go North, to the City of Pella. Obeying That Prophecy of Jesus kept them safe.”

Question 6: “Do Catholics still obey Directions from Jesus?”
Answer: “Yes! We begin by obeying His Instruction to have our souls be among those in Heaven! ‘You are My friends if you obey My commands.’ That leads us to be IN His Church and get the only ‘keys to the Kingdom of Heaven’ that He specifically left on earth.
‘And I say unto you thou are Peter and on this rock I build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys of The Kingdom of Heaven; . . .’
For 2,000 years, Catholics have been saving their lives and souls by Thinking Clearly enough to obey Jesus!”
