The Prophet Hosea describes Early Protestants! #31.

Moses set his people free from every earthly Pharaoh.  Early Protestants put them back in chains.  An overlooked Miracle?  Catholics who live in ‘Egypt’!

~

Question 1:  “Does The Prophet Hosea describe early Protestants in Today’s Catholic Reading?”

Answer:  “Hosea 8:4-7, 11-13 describes early Protestants who left God and His Temple in Jerusalem in One Sentence!  ‘Thus says The Lord:  They made kings in Israel, but not by My authority;  they established princes, but without My approval.’

~

Question 2:   “Did later Protestants do the same thing when they left The One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Spoken Into Being by This Word of Jesus to The 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.’

Answer:  “Protestantism never changes!  People who think ‘I know more than God about what is best for me!’ always replace The Words of God with popular vanities.”

~

Question 3:  “What happens to Willful Protestants?”

Answer:  “Hosea tells us!  ‘When they sow the wind, they shall reap the whirlwind.’  . . When Ephraim made many altars to expiate sin, his altars became occasions of sin.'”

~

Question 4:  “Did Hosea warn Willful Protestants of their fate?”

Answer:  “‘Though they offer sacrifice, immolate flesh and eat it, The Lord is not pleased with them.  He shall still remember their guilt and punish their sins;  they shall return to Egypt.’

~

Question 5:  “What does ‘return to Egypt’ mean?”

Answer:  “‘Egypt’ is every place where pharaohs turn people into slaves.”

~

Question 6:  “Is that what happens to souls in hell?”

Answer:  “Demons torment lost souls on earth in one ‘Egypt’ after another and forever in hell.'”

~

Question 7:  “How do we keep our souls from being lost?”

Answer:  “Anyone may do what is necessary to receive The Body and Blood of Jesus by obeying The Call to Catholic Communion that He repeated 12 times in John 6 and twice more at The Last Supper:  ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’

~

May all be blessed to free ourselves from pharaohs on earth.  The Catholics who live in Egypt are Miracles of God.
