No matter how one diverts their attention every time someone offers to them the Truth of what God's Grace in Christ IS, no matter how many little prideful insults they may contrive to dismiss the messenger so they can ignore the message, God will not give up on them until He knows someone is beyond being born from above.
Here's a big clue for Catholics:
There is no such place as Purgatory. When a saint dies (and God determines sainthood, not some Magisterium of Catholic Bishops) their soul and spirit are present with the Lord, IN HEAVEN, as attested by God bringing them with Christ FROM HEAVEN at the Rapture (1 Thess 4:13-18). ALL BELIEVERS are born from above BY GOD"S GRACE and Him placing His Spirit in the believer when they are born from above. God does not send His family members to punishment that Jesus has already atoned with His Cross work and proven efficacious by the Resurrection.
There is no level of magic thinking which will negate or add to anything God proclaims; the magisteeringthem declarations are specious.
If one will look at the double-mindedness in one's own assertions, there is a big clue to be found:
Our prayers to the saints in heaven, asking for their prayers for us, and their intercession with the Father do not undermine Christ’s role as sole Mediator.
One cites that Jesus is the sole mediator and contradicts it int he same sentence! That, FRiend, is Magic Thinking.
Convinced?! WE BELIEVE, and honey, we shout it from the housetops!
At each Mass, after God's Word is read; intentions offered to Him, Jesus' Sacrifice on Calvary is once again given as His Last Supper is reenacted by the priest, " in persona Christi" Whatever the state of the priest's soul, Jesus, in His Infinite Love which cannot be fully understood-for men are finite and created beings, condescends to come to the Altar. When the Words from the Gospel are prayed over the bread and wine, they become the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, because He wills it to be so! It is not magical: it is as real as the Words "THIS IS MY BODY! THIS IS MY BLOOD!" and as real as the TRUE GOD AND TRUE MAN Who first spoke those anointed Words! He stated He would remain with us always, even unto the end of the world: yet He ascended into Heaven, that the Holy Spirit would come. HE REMAINS IN THIS WORLD as long as there is a Particle of a Consecrated Host; a Drop of His Precious Blood, He is there, here, with us, more certainly than anything we can see- and He allows us to receive Him! AMEN!! ALLELUIA!! PRAISE YOU, JESUS!! THANK YOU, JESUS!!
