Today’s Reading tells where Catholic priests and religious come from! #47.

God's "shepherds" are His Catholic priests and religious. They have helped His people stay on "The Ladder to Heaven" for 2,000 years!

~

Question 1: “Where do Catholic priests and religious come from?”

Answer: “Today’s Catholic Reading is The Memorial of Saints Joachim and Anne, parents of The Blessed Virgin Mary. In This Reading, Jer.3:14-17 tells us where God finds His Catholic priests and religious:

‘Return, rebellious children, says The Lord, for I am your Master; I will take you, one from a city, two from a clan, and bring you to Zion.’

~

Question 2: “Is every Catholic priest and religious among those who are taken, ‘one from a city, two from a clan by their Master to Zion’

Answer: “‘Zion’ is The Catholic Church! It is The Promised Land in which Catholics are blessed to live.”

~

Question 3: “Does Jeremiah describe the Ordination of Catholic priests and religious who provide and support The Seven Soul-saving Catholic Sacraments?”

Answer: “God’s Promise is clear: ‘I will appoint over you shepherds after My own heart’! His Catholic priests and religious ‘will shepherd you wisely and prudently.’

~

Question 4: “What happens when people let His Catholic priests and religious be their ‘shepherds’?”

Answer: “They ‘multiply and become fruitful in the land’ says The Lord.’

~

Question 5: “What do those who ‘multiply and become fruitful’ do?”

Answer: “They focus on their future. ‘They will in those days no longer say, ‘The ark of the covenant of The Lord!’ They will no longer think of it, or remember it, or miss it, or make another.’ Willful Protestants, on the other hand, have invented tens of thousands of Marketing Plans to ‘live in the past’.”

~

Question 6: “Do Catholics replace ‘old Jerusalems’ with ‘The New Jerusalem’ at Rome?”

Answer: “‘At that time they will call Jerusalem The Lord’s throne; there all nations will be gathered together to honor The Name of The Lord at Jerusalem, and they will walk no longer in their hardhearted wickedness.’

~

Question 7: “Which people end up in Rome, ‘The New Jerusalem’?”

Answer: “God’s People want ‘the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ The Prophesied Messiah gave to His First Catholic Pope, the leader of His ‘shepherds’ on earth! ‘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.’

~

May all be blessed to follow God’s ‘shepherds’, be Catholic, and get the ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ that Jesus died to leave to His Church on Earth.
