. For 3,500 years, “hard-hearted” people have kept their souls from God’s “place of rest”.
~
Question 1: “What is a human soul?”
Answer: “Every human soul is an immortal ‘spark of life’ that came into being at conception.”
~
Question 2: “Is our spirit, mind, and body ‘downloaded’ around our immortal soul?”
Answer: “Yes. We were smaller than a grain of salt when we were conceived. The billion cells that make us are all ‘downloaded’ around the ‘living spark’ that is our immortal soul.”
~
Question 3: “Is our immortal soul a ‘living blueprint’ that is God’s Design for all that we grow to be?”
Answer: “Yes. Every soul is the result of God’s Plan for us.”
~
Question 4: “Why did God go to all the trouble of making the universe in which our immortal soul would live?”
Answer: “He wanted every soul to have the opportunity to go to Heaven, His ‘place of rest’.”
~
Question 5: “Can a soul choose to obey God and live forever in Heaven?”
Answer: “Souls who strive to obey God may be allowed into Heaven. Those who knowingly choose to disobey God may not.”
~
Question 6: “What does ‘knowingly’ mean?”
Answer: “3,500 years ago, God’s Twelve Tribes were in the desert. They were led and fed by God. They saw that His Power kept them alive, but they chose to disobey Him.”
~
Question 7: “What did God do to them?”
Answer: “St. Paul explains in Hebrews 3:7-12. He let them die before they could get to His ‘place of rest’.
~
Question 8: “Does God always keep those who knowingly disobey Him from ‘His place of rest’?”
Answer: “Yes. Catholics learn that in John 6:44-51. ‘Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died; this is the bread that comes down from heaven so that one may eat it and not die.’”
Catholics obey The Call to Catholic Communion that Jesus repeated 14 times. ‘If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.’” That lets us be able to get into Heaven, God’s final ‘place of rest’.”
~
Question: “What leads people to disobey God and keep their souls from Heaven?”
Answer: “They have ‘hardened their hearts’ (Hebrews 3:8). They will not put God’s Word ‘before’ their opinions. Many are too ‘hard-hearted’ to accept His ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’. They keep themselves from His eternal ‘place of rest’.”
~
Question 9: “How can people cure their ‘hard-heartedness’?”
Answer: “All may be cured by Thinking Clearly about Who Jesus Is. Then, they will obey His Word, be in His Church, and get His ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’.
‘And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys of The Kingdom of Heaven.’”
