Billions of people have said:   “I’d rather burn in hell than be Catholic!”

Why would anyone risk an eternity of suffering to avoid The Only Church Jesus Founded?

Why would anyone ignore the clear words that He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies said to one man, one time, about One Church:  “Verily, verily 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.”

There are only a few reasons why for avoiding The Church Jesus Founded.  When we look at them, we see vanity and silliness masquerading as popular profundity:

0.  “More than anything, Jesus wants us to be happy!”

1.  “Nobody’s going to tell ME what to do!  I am a good person.  I am getting into Heaven.  That’s all there is to it.”

2.  “My family has always been in Pastor Bob’s Little Brown Church of The Bible’s Living Word In The Valley.  I’m staying right where I am!”

3.  “I have a lot of friends in my church.  It is a friendly, welcoming church and I am happy here.  Why would I leave my friends?”

4.  “Catholics worship idols.”

5.  “Catholics worry too much about God and their souls.  They should worry about The Environment, Fairness, Over-population, Climate Change, Water, and giving me some money!”

6.  “I don’t want some man in Rome telling ME how to think!”

7.  “Obedient Catholics cannot use birth control that may induce abortion.  Frankly, I would rather have my tiniest children die than inconvenience me.  My Protestant denomination doesn’t dare to tell me I’m wrong about that.”

8.  “The Catholic Church has too many rules for me!  I know what I have to do to get to Heaven!”

9.  “There is NO WAY that Jesus had the power to ordain Catholic priests with the power to change bread and wine into His Body and Blood!  There is NO WAY that Jesus had the power to ordain Catholic priests with the power to forgive sins!”
