Human vanity takes four forms! The Bible identifies 4 kinds of Protestants who argued with Jesus. “Pharisees”, “Herodians”, “Sadducees”, and “Scribes” argue with Jesus in every generation.
Catholics easily see what any Protestant is.
~
“Pharisees” believe in God and their immortal human soul. But, they join with those who help them justify disobeying This Teaching of Jesus Christ! “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.”
Question 1. “Is it intelligent to say “I believe in God and my immortal soul.” and disobey Any Teaching from He Who Fulfilled The Messianic Prophecies?”
My answer: “Yes! I am intelligent and I proudly disobey Many Teachings of Jesus Christ!” ___. OR, “No! I want to go to The Judgment of Jesus Christ and be among: “You are My friends if you obey My commands.”! ___.
~
“Herodians” believe the highest truth comes from worldly rulers. An example: All “Herodians” disobey this Teaching: ‘Life must be protected from conception until natural death.'”
Question 2. “Will God let me into Heaven if I violate His First Commandment: “Thou shall have no other gods before Me.”?
My answer: “God will not let those who willfully and knowingly disobey Him into Heaven.” ___. OR, “God will let me into Heaven if He knows what’s good for Him!” ___.
~
“Sadducees” believe in God. They do not believe they have immortal souls destined for either Heaven or hell. They follow some of God’s Teachings.
Question 3. “Do I avoid thinking that I have an immortal soul because I do not want to obey Every Teaching of God?”
My answer: “Yes.” ___. “No!” ___.
~
“Scribes” are specifically described by Jesus! Mk 12: 38-44: “Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in long robes and accept greetings in the marketplaces, seats of honor in synagogues, and places of honor at banquets.”
Jesus also told us how “Scribes” make a living! “They devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext, recite lengthy prayers.”
Then, Jesus told us what He will do to the souls of “Scribes” at Judgment! “They will receive a very severe condemnation.”
Catholics shudder in horror at the thought of going to Judgment among the “Scribes”!

Catholics are grateful to God! He has shown us why we are blessed to be Catholics!
