Early Protestants left “The House of David” when Solomon’s son threatened to raise their taxes. The Ten Northern Tribes set up their own Kingdom about 930 BC.
2 Kings 17:5-8, 13-15, 8 tells that 200 years later, in 722 BC, “Shalmaneser, the king of Assyria occupied the whole land and attacked Samaria, which he beseiged for three years… the king of Assyria took Samaria and deported the childrn of Israel to Assyria… because the children of Israel sinned against The LORD and because they venerated other gods. They followed the rites of the nations whom The LORD had cleared out of the way of the children of Israel.”
Protestant pride took form by believing “We know more than God about what is best for us!” God hated that vanity! “… in His great anger against Israel, The LORD put them away out of His sight. Only the tribe of Judah was left.”
Psalm 60:3-5, 12-13 gives “Hidden Prophecies” predicting what would happen!
“O God, you have rejected us and broken our defenses; you have been angry; rally us! Help us with Your right hand, O Lord, and answer us. You have rocked the country and split it open” is a “Hidden Prophecy” of tens of thousands of anti-Catholic Marketing Plans taking denominational form in the 2,000 years following The Church-Creating Word of Jesus, The Prophesied Son of God, David, and Mary to His, and our, 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.”
There are two groups of non-Catholics. Those closer to God honor His Commandment “Thou shall not kill”. They oppose the sacrifice of unborn babies on the altars of convenience. Others proudly think of themselves as being “modern”.
Today’s “Alleluia” is another “Hidden Prophecy” from Hebrews 4:12, “The Word of God is living and effective, able to discern reflections and thoughts of the heart.” That “Hidden Prophecy” predicts The Seven Catholic Sacraments, particularly the living “Holy Orders” of Catholic priests. They hear Confessions and give actual Absolution while correctly “discerning reflections and thoughts of the heart.”
Every person on earth is given God’s advice to “Be Catholic!” from “Hidden Prophecies” in Matthew 7:1-5:
“Jesus said to His disciples: ‘Stop judging, that you may not be judged. For as you judge, so will you be judged, and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you. May all be blessed to realize that the avoidance of Catholic Teachings will be “measured out to you’!)
This “Hidden Prophecy” describes vanity! Why do you notice the splinter in your brother’s eye, but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove that splinter from your eye,’ while the wooden beam is in your eye?'”
The cure for that vanity is to “Be Catholic!” Self-serving people have been told, from Samaria in 922 BC, until today: ‘You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brother’s eye.’”
There is no bigger “wooden beam” than the accumulated vanities that keep a person from seeing The Church-Creating Word of He Who Fulfilled the Messianic Prophecies clearly enough to “Be Catholic!”
