Question 1:  “What are the ‘important questions’ that only Catholics can ask and answer?”

Answer:  “Why did The Great Catholic Cardinal-Bishop, St. Paul, spend a long time beginning what would become a Catholic Diocese in the Greek City of Corinth, as we learn in Acts 18:9-18:

‘One night while Paul was in Corinth, the Lord said to him in a vision, ‘Do not be afraid.  Go on speaking, and do not be silent, for I am with you.  No one will attack and harm you,  for I have many people in this city.’  He settled there for a year and a half and taught The Word of God among them.’?”

Question 2:  “Why did God have St. Paul spend a ‘year and a half’ in that One City of ancient Greece?”

Answer:  “Corinth was halfway between Athens and Sparta.  All Greek city-states symbolized rule by foreign and local Royalty, Tyranny, and Democracy.  Paul stayed so long in Corinth to show that The Catholic Church is The Kingdom of God for His People who would live in every sort of Royalty, Tyranny, and Democracy.”

Question 3:  “Did God also use St. Paul to teach earthly governors how to deal with Religious Differences?”

Answer:  “Only Catholics are smart enough to ask that!  ‘But when Gallio was Proconsul of Achaia, the Jews rose up together against Paul and brought him to the Tribunal, saying, ‘This man is inducing people to worship God contrary to the law.’
When Paul was about to reply, Gallio spoke to the Jews, ‘If it were a matter of some crime or malicious fraud, I should with reason hear the complaint of you Jews;  but since it is a question of arguments over doctrine and titles and your own law, see to it yourselves.  I do not wish to be a judge of such matters.’

Question 4:  “What did Gallio do after he told those who complained about Paul to solve their religious differences?”

Answer:  “He put his police force to work!  ‘And he drove them away from the tribunal.’

~

Question 5:  “What did the angry people do?”

Answer:  “They all seized Sosthenes, the synagogue official, and beat him in full view of the tribunal.’  While that was happening right in front of him, ‘none of this was of concern to Gallio.’

~

Question 4:  “Why did they attack the important ‘official’ of their synagogue?”

Answer:  “They were angry at him because he could not refute a single word that St. Paul had spoken about this simple fact:  Jesus had fulfilled The Prophecies that predicted He was The Promised Messiah whose words had taken living form in The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church of which St. Paul was an early Catholic Cardinal-Bishop.”

~

Question 5:  “Do some Willful Protestants of every time and place hate leaders who cannot give good reasons to reject The Church-Creating Word of The Prophesied Messiah:  ‘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?”

Answer:  “The Profiteers of Protestantism often attack those who encourage obedience to Every Word of Jesus, especially The Holy Word with Which Jesus Spoke One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church into Being!”
