The Holy Spirit sent The Bible to The Church. Sadly, The Profiteers of Protestantism keep their donors from reading The Seven Books of The Septuagint in their Bibles. We see some of what they miss:
~
Question 1: “How does 1 Maccabees 6:1-13 help us understand our relationship with God?”
Answer: “The Greek King, Antiochus, was driven by demons of greed and gluttony. He attacked The Temple in Jerusalem and other places that had wealth he could steal. When he was defeated, he realized what he had done. He was ‘struck with fear and very much shaken and overwhelmed with sorrow’.”
~
Question 2: What did King Antiochus realize before he died in 164 BC?”
Answer: “He understood what greed and gluttony had done to his soul! ‘But I now recall the evils I did in Jerusalem, when I carried away all the vessels of gold and silver that were in it, and for no cause gave orders that the inhabitants of Judah be destroyed. I know that this is why these evils have overtaken me; and now I am dying, in bitter grief, in a foreign land.’”
~
Question 3: “Does the fate of greedy gluttons like Antiochus help us understand God’s Truth in The Psalms?”
Answer: “The Books of The Maccabees, and all The Sepuagint, helps Catholics read Today’s Psalms 9: 2-19, and let us respond ‘I will rejoice in Your salvaton, O Lord.’
‘Because my enemies are turned back, overthrown, and destroyed before You.’
‘The nations are sunk in the pit they have made; in the snare they set, their foot is caught.’ When Catholics realize that ‘foot’ is a symbol for ‘soul’, we see that few passages explain the results of Willful Protestantism as well!“
~
Question 4: “Does The New Testament warn us that what God did to Antiochus can happen to us?”
Answer: “2 Timothy 1:10 tells us that Jesus can save such a sinner as that! ‘Our Savior, Jesus Christ, has destroyed death and brought life to light through The Gospel.’ Sadly, Willful Protestantism keeps donors from as much ‘light’ as they would have if their Profiteers had not removed The Septuagint from their ‘Gospel’.”
~
Question 5: “Did Jesus tell us who would have the highest place in Heaven?”
Answer: “Luke 20: 27-40 tells us that His Catholic priests and religious would have the highest place in Heaven! ‘Jesus said to them (the scribes and Sadducees), ‘The children of this age marry and remarry; but those who are deemed worthy to attain to the coming age and to the resurrection of the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage.’”
~
Question 6: “What happens to their souls at Judgment?”
Answer: “‘They can no longer die, for they are like angels; and they are the children of God because they are the ones who will rise.’”
~
Question 7: “What about the rest of us Catholics who strive to obey Teachings of Jesus while we are married and raising our families?”
Answer: “St. Faustina (424) tells us that in Heaven, ‘the souls of Catholic priests and religious shine like the moon’. Other Catholic souls ‘shine like stars.’”
~
Catholics are blessed! We have The Old Testament, including The Septuagint. And, we have The New Testament that tells us of The Only Church and “keys to The Kingdom of Heaven” that Jesus Christ Spoke Into Being with His Holy 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.”
Catholics are blessed to understand more details about how God Works on earth. Sadly, The Profiteers of Protestantism are united in keeping their donors’ souls from having more of Christ’s “keys to The Kingdom of Heaven”.
