Question 1:  “Many Willful Protestants complain:  ‘The Catholic Church is too rich!’  How rich is The Catholic Church?”

Answer:  “The ‘Total Wealth’ of the world is about $420,000,000,000,000.00 dollars.  That’s 420 trillion dollars!”

~

Question 2:  “How much of that wealth is owned by The Catholic Church?”

Answer:  “All the assets of The Catholic Church are worth about $80,000,000,000.00, 80 billion dollars.  Most of that ‘wealth’ is in deteriorating land and buildings in the world’s poorest places.”

~

Question 3:  “Is there an easy way for someone who cares about Truth to see how ‘rich’ The Catholic Church actually is?

Answer:  “Take ten zeroes away from both numbers.  Then, divide both $8.00 and $42,000.00 by 8.  Anyone can see that for every one dollar The Catholic Church has, the world has $5,250.00 dollars.”

~

Question 4:  “What does that show everyone who can do simple arithmetic?”

Answer:  “The World is 5,250 times richer than The Catholic Church!”

~

Question 5:  “What does saying ‘The Catholic Church is too rich!’ tell us about the nature of Willful Protestantism?”

Answer:  “Those who are too vain to do simple arithmetic have a hard time finding truth in anything.'”

~

Question 6:  “Why do The Profiteers of Protestantism avoid such simple facts?”

Answer:   “They want every person on earth to reject This Word of Jesus Christ and give money to them ‘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, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in Heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in Heaven.’

~

Question 7:  “Can the souls of those who knowingly and willfully reject those ‘keys’ from Jesus and His Church ‘be bound in Heaven’?”

Answer:   “The Bible is clear.  Jesus tells us how to identify one group of souls at His Judgment.  ‘You are My friends if you obey My commands.’  Simple arithmetic can help our soul to be forever among them.”
