In every generation,  Jesus asks and answers a profound question.  Luke 12:51, “Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division.”

He divides sheep from goats.  He separates the living from the dead.

Jesus told us how to be among the living.   He told us, fourteen times:  “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”

Billions have heard His words.  Many have chosen to do what is necessary to receive Catholic Communion in The Only Church Jesus Founded.  They have obeyed His Great Command.  They “have life in” them.

Catholics overcome earthly interests.  We realize:  “If I refuse to receive Holy Communion in The Only Church Jesus Founded, I do not ‘have life in’ me.  Jesus is clear:  the willfully disobedient are dead!”

Human vanity avoids something as bizarre to our thoughts as “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”  Many refuse to believe that Jesus was deadly serious about the need to receive Catholic Communion!

Catholics remind our neighbors of the facts.  “Jesus fulfilled the prophecies. He is God.  Jesus did say, more than a dozen times, ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’”

Catholics choose to obey Jesus.  We may ask our neighbors:  “What kind of a person would not want us to obey Jesus and ‘have life in us’?”

Protestants and Catholics share many beliefs. When we get into the nitty-gritty details of His most often-repeated command, we have to ask: “How may any who willfully disobey be blessed to be forever among ‘You are My friends if you obey My commands.’?”

Jesus divides sheep from goats, the obedient from the disobedient, and the living from the dead.
