Do The Psalms prophesy that The Holy Spirit would take “the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven” from The Father to The Son?
~
Question 1: How do St. Paul and The Psalms tell us how to get our souls into Heaven?”
Answer: “St. Paul tells us in one sentence in 1 Tm 6:13-16! ‘Beloved: I charge you before God, Who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus, Who gave testimony under Pontius Pilate for the noble confession, to keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ that the blessed and only ruler will make manifest at the proper time, the King of kings and Lord of lords, Who alone has immortality, Who dwells in unapproachable light, and whom no human being has seen or can see. To him be honor and eternal power. Amen.’”

Question 2: “What is ‘the commandment’ of Jesus Christ that St. Paul is ‘charging’ us to obey?”
Answer: “Jesus gave One Church-Creating ‘commandment’ in Mt. 16:18-20! ‘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.’”

“Question 3: “How do we know that is ‘the commandment’ Jesus wanted us to ‘keep’?
Answer: “Priests of The Catholic Church are the only people on earth who can provide His obedient ‘friends’ with what Jesus said was the only way to Have ‘His Life’ in us! ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’ That is the only ‘commandment’ that Jesus Christ repeated 14 times!”

Question 4: “How long are people to continue keeping ‘The Commandment’?”
Answer: “St. Paul tells us we must: ‘. . . keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the appearance of our Lord Jesus Christ. . .’”
~
Question 5: “Do the Psalms tell us that Every Word of The Prophesied Messiah should be gratefully obeyed?”
Answer: “Psalm 100:1-5 tell us why Catholics obey Jesus Christ’s call o grateful obedience! ‘Know that The Lord is God; He made us, we are His people, the flock He tends.
Enter His gates with thanksgiving, His courts with praise; Give thanks to Him; bless His name.’
The Catholic Response to those Teachings is ‘Come with joy into the presence of The Lord.’”
~
The Willful Protestant Risk! It may be impossible for Willful Protestants to “come with joy into The Presence of The Lord” if they willfully refuse to obey any ‘Commandment’ from Jesus. Every Word of Jesus is a ‘Commandment’. May all be blessed to with the humility to get these “keys”!
