Every Word of Jesus is a “Pearl of Wisdom” for Catholics.
~
Question 1: “Why should we ‘seek God’s Wisdom’?”
Answer: “The Book of Sirach, 4:11-19 explains what ‘Wisdom’ is and does: First, we see that ‘Wisdom breathes life into her children’. At the same time, ‘Wisdom’ also: ‘admonishes those who seek her.'”
~
Question 2: “How can we identify a person who has and loves ‘wisdom’?”
Answer: “Those blessed with ‘wisdom’ are all ‘Pro-Life’. That is clear in 4:12; ‘He who loves Wisdom loves life; those who seek her will be embraced by the Lord.’ “
Then, God promises more for those with ‘wisdom’: ‘He who holds her fast inherits glory; wherever he dwells, The Lord bestows blessings. Those who serve her serve The Holy One; those who love her, The Lord loves.’”
~
Question 3: “What happens to people and peoples who lose ‘wisdom’?”
Answer: “‘If anyone fails her, she will abandon them and deliver him into the hands of despoilers.’”
~
Question 4: “How can we tell if we are blessed with ‘wisdom’?”
Answer: “Those blessed with ‘wisdom’ will ‘possess’ the ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’. These ‘keys’ are given to the ‘wise’ by The Church-Creating Word of Jesus Christ to His First Catholic Pope:
‘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 5: “Do those who are ‘wise’ live by This Word of He Who Fulfilled the Prophecies in Mark 9:38-40: ‘I am the way and the truth and the life, says The Lord; no one comes to The Father except through Me.’?”
Answer: “It is hard, if not impossible, for a ‘wise’ person to read that and not be Catholic.”
