There are two kinds of Catholics. Which are you?

It is true that Catholics have the best chance of Heaven. But, one kind of Catholic has an advantage: They have the Mother of God recommending them.

When The Blessed Mother of our Savior appeared at Fatima, the sun plunged from the sky and 70,000 suddenly terrified people were paralyzed with fright. It happened again and again. There was no doubt in 70,000 minds that they had seen the greatest miracle since The Resurrection.

God’s power was plainly portrayed for all to see. What else was made very clear? The fact that He had given His Mother the power to perform such a miracle.

Mary left simple instructions. She gave the children to whom She originally appeared three messages. Her instructions were clear. “The third message must be opened and made public in 1960.”

It was also made clear that “Russia is to be consecrated to My Immaculate Heart. The Pope must do so, and all the bishops must, as well.”

If those simple things were not done, “Russia’s errors will spread throughout the world causing pain, death, and suffering throughout the world.”

The Fatima Miracle had another purpose. It divides Catholics into two groups. The first kind of Catholic becomes aware of the facts that Mary left specific instructions and wants the Third Secret publicized. And, the first kind of Catholic wants Russia consecrated to The Blessed Mother’s Immaculate Heart by The Holy Father with all the Bishops participating as directed.

The second kind of Catholic makes excuses for not obeying The Mother of God.

Holy men and women have concluded that The Blessed Mother of God sits at the right hand of Her Son, the way Solomon’s mother sat at the right hand of his throne. When you and I go to Judgment, we stand before Him. He pronounces sentence. Then, each and every soul is sent to spend eternity in varying degrees of agony and joy.

When the first kind of Catholic stands before Him, His Mother looks upon them with a warm smile, and nods to Her Son, saying to Him without words, “That is a Catholic who loved me.”

When the second kind of Catholic stands before Him, Jesus glances over at His Blessed Mother. She stares out over the vast and starry realm over which she has been made Queen. The second kind of Catholic is left to be judged on his or her own merits.

What kind of Catholic would be foolish enough to end up like that?
