He is dead! He is Risen! He will Come Again!

 

             The Messianic Prophecies came True at the moment Mary chose to say “Yes.” to God.  That led to Easter!

~

Question 1:  “How do Catholics know The Bible tells The Truth about The Conception, Life, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus?”

Answer:  “His Disciples spent three and a half years with Him, between 29 and 33 AD.  They told us things we need to know about His Conception, Life, Death, and Resurrection.”

~

Question 2:  “How do we know that His Disciples were telling The Truth about Jesus being God on earth in Human Form?”

Answer:  “His Apostles are the most credible witnesses in History!   Each of them given this choice by authorities:  ‘If you tell us that Jesus is not God, we will reward you with life and freedom.’   All of them told The Truth until the day they died:  ‘Jesus Christ is God.  He Took Human Form on earth.’

His Apostles knew:  Obedience to Jesus is more important than life, itself.  Some things never change.  Authorities still want people to reject the belief that Jesus Christ is God in Human Form.”

~

Question 3:  “Why would God take Human Form, come to earth, teach for three and a half years, and let Himself be scourged, nailed to a cross, and stabbed with a spear?”

Answer:  “God left the souls of those who loved and obeyed Him ‘His Way’ to be with Him in Heaven, forever.”

~

Question 4:  “How do we get our souls to be with Him in Heaven, forever?”

Answer:  “He told us where we could find ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’.  His ‘obedient friends’ use those ‘keys’ to get into Heaven and be with Him, forever.”

~

Question 5:  “Where did ‘God in Human Form on Earth’ leave those ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’?

Answer: “The Prophesied Messiah Spoke One Church Into Being on earth and gave Catholics His ‘keys’:

‘And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys of The Kingdom of Heaven.’

~

Question 6:  “That was 2,000 years ago!  Is His Church still on earth?”

Answer:  “His Church is still led by Successors to Peter.  The Catholic Church is the living fulfillment of The Prophecies that told us The Messiah, God Himself, would come to earth in Human Form.”

~

Question 7:  “Who is in The Catholic Church?”

Answer:  “Those who love, respect, and obey Every Word of God more than their personal opinions about things and people in His Creation.”

~

Not just at Easter, Catholics sing to ourselves:  ‘He is dead!  He is risen!  ‘He will come again!’ over and over in our own holy rhythm.
