The first people to say “Catholics are insane!” are identified in Mark 3:20-21. It is the shortest Daily Catholic Gospel Reading many Catholics have ever seen! God’s Word gives 8 billion people on earth Two Choices:
“Jesus came with His disciples into the house. Again, the crowd gathered, making it impossible for them even to eat. When His relatives (symbolizing the most worldly people among the Twelve Tribes of Israel) heard of this, they set out to seize Him, for they said, “He is out of His mind.”
That Passage is introduced by another short reading from Acts 16:14, “Open our hearts, O Lord, to listen to the words of Your Son.”
The Two Readings give Two Choices to every person on earth! We can either “listen to The Words of God’s Son“, OR we may reject The Church-Creating Word of “God’s Son” to His First Catholic Pope: “And I say unto you thou art Jesus 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.”
Pride causes the world’s worst “Confusion Headaches”. It takes form by embracing the belief: “I know more about some things than Jesus!” That keeps many from realizing that God Is So Powerful that His Son could Speak One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Into Being with His Perfect, Church-Creating Word to His First Catholic Pope: “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.”
Many Non-Catholics find it easier to say: “The Prophesied Messiah is ‘out of His mind.‘” rather than Be Catholic and get “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
And, many Anti-Catholics do not realize how much they compliment us when they say: “Catholics are ‘out of their minds‘!” because we are in “His Mind”.
May all be blessed to understand “The Loving Programmer downloaded The Creation Program over 13 trillion light years ago for one reason: to let every person on Earth, each one of us a Living Miracle of God’s Creation, choose to “Be Catholic” and get “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven”.
The most anti-Catholic people and groups on earth will be the most successful if they ask God to bless them enough to “Be Catholic”. As St. Faustina teaches: “The greater the sinner, the greater the right he has to My mercy.” (723)
