The First Pope makes life simple with Three Words! #58

 

Question 1:  “Why do Catholics listen to The First Catholic Pope?”

Answer:  “Out of a billion people on earth, Jesus chose Peter to be The First Pope of The Only Church He Spoke Into Being with His Church-Creating Word:   ‘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 2:  “How did The First Catholic Pope make life simple?”

Answer:  “In 2 Peter 1:16-19, The First Pope put Three Words in this sentence:  ‘Beloved, we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His Majesty.'”

~

Question 3:  “Are there two beliefs on earth, ‘cleverly devised myths’ and Catholic Teaching left on earth by The Beloved Son of God?”

Answer:  “Catholics are blessed to know that I say unto you means that He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies chose Peter to provide ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ to those who rejected the ‘cleverly designed myths’ that worldly people prefer.”

~

Question 4:  “Is getting into Heaven so simple that all we have to do is avoid ‘cleverly designed myths’?”

Answer:   “Every person makes one choice in life:  we either believe Every Word of Jesus or ‘cleverly designed myths’ that keep us from obeying Him.

~

Question 5:  “Does every vanity on earth live in clouds of  ‘cleverly designed myths’?

Answer:  “Every vanity wants us to avoid This Simple Fact from God:  ‘For Jesus received honor and glory from God The Father when that unique declaration came to Him from The Majestic Glory:  ‘This is My Son, My Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.’

~

Question 6:  “What keeps people from being in The Only Church Spoken Into Being by The Son of God?”

Answer: “They do not trust eyewitnesses who saw and heard God!  ‘We ourselves heard This Voice come from heaven while we were with him on the holy mountain.’  Moreover, we possess The Prophetic Message that is altogether reliable.

~

Question 7:  “Is that why Catholics are Catholic?”

Answer:  “We believe what God told The First Pope about The Prophetic Message’!   ‘You will do well to be attentive to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.’

~

Catholic Conclusions:

  1. We can only ‘do well’ if we prefer God’s Words to ‘cleverly designed myths’.
  2. Some people hate us for replacing the ‘cleverly designed myths’ with obedience to God and The Church He Spoke Into Being.
  3.  The more money worldly people make from ‘cleverly designed myths’, the more they resent us for being Catholic.
