Yes. We all have free will to believe God’s Truth or not.
However, Jesus commanded us:
“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them ..., teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you, and behold. I am with you always, to the close of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20
So Jesus wants us to spread the Good News and teach them God’s revealed truths for their salvation.
If you’re surprised to find that two saints by the name of Francis (Xavier and Assisi) told their listeners to choose between Catholicism and the loss of their souls, you shouldn’t be. This was the choice Jesus gave to Jewish leaders and was the one given by the apostles to those who heard them preach (e.g., Acts 13:46-49).
As Scott Hahn says, “When we evangelize others, we evangelize ourselves” (Evangelizing Catholics, 38).
“ teaching them…”
Yes. I did that here.
‘The Eucharist is the real presence whether you believe it or not’ is what I said
What did I miss?
