“. . 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. . .”
Protestants reject The Only Church Jesus Founded! And, they won’t admit it!
Protestants have the same reason for disrespecting The Decree of Jesus: Vanity! All of us are burdened, if not cursed, with the notion that “My opinion matters!”
That leads many to: “I do NOT want to follow the rules of The Only Church Jesus Founded. But, I do want to get to Heaven. So, I ignore Jesus when I disagree with anything He says! I am proud of having the moral strength to ignore God when I want!”
Protestants love to recite self-serving silliness: “Jesus loves me! I am saved because I believe! When I say that, Pastor Bob tells me how smart I am! I love it when Pastor Bob tells me how smart I am! I give him money. The more he praises me, the more I give him. That shows how smart I am!”
John 3:36 is as clear as it needs to be: “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.”
Best to be Catholic!
