When I was a Protestant, I avoided images of God’s Obedient Saints.
When I was a Protestant, I noticed that we did not want “too much” obedience to The Son of God!
When I was a Protestant, I was led to reject This Teaching of Jesus Christ! He said: “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.”

When I was a Protestant, I didn’t understand why The Profiteers of Protestantism wanted donors to reject That Teaching of God. Then, I understood! The Profiteers of Protestantism know: “If my donors obey That Teaching of Jesus Christ, I will lose my job!”
~
I was blessed to realize! Those who make a living by disobeying That Teaching of God do not want reminders of obedient Catholic Saints in their empty buildings!
That is why some Profiteers of Protestantism tell their favorite lie! “Catholics worship idols!”
They know. “If we have images of obedient Catholic Saints, smarter donors will ask the question we hate!”
~What question do The Profiteers of Protestantism hate!~
“Pastor, Catholic Saints spent their lives obeying Teachings of Jesus Christ. How can we be ‘Christians’ while we willfully disobey This Teaching of Jesus Christ? ‘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.'”
My brain came alive! I realized the Simple Truth! “All of Protestantism is based on rejecting That Teaching of Jesus Christ!”
~
It was a staggering Truth! When I was a Protestant, I was gambling! I was betting that my immortal soul could get into Heaven while willfully disobeying Any Teaching of Jesus Christ! I was stunned!
A billion other Protestants made the same bet! “I can knowingly reject the only “keys to The Kingdom of Heaven” that Jesus left on earth and get into Heaven!”
At first, I thought: “It has to be more complicated than that!”
It’s not! We are either among “You are My friends if you obey My commands.”
Or, we are not.
When I was a Protestant, I was not making the smart bet!
