Thank you for your Advice and Prayers

I posted a few days ago about a group of atheists I have been talking with on the Internet. I have posted what I hope is my last reply to them. Here is what I wrote to them:

Well for the most part, no one wanted to just assume something for the sake of discussion. I asked just to keep this a civil conservation without profanity and my request was ignored. I said I care about everyone here and for that I was told that I am not cared for. I ask for you guys to prove your side of the story about God and you don’t.

I’m done here. I know I haven’t made a difference with anyone that I’ve talked with. But, I appeal to those that are reading my words without responding - please know that God is real. He is in the Catholic faith, the only denomination that goes back to the time of the apostles. I am here because I care. I used “please” several times and still people just don’t listen. For those of you out there that haven’t responded, seek Jesus Christ. Don’t remain in darkness. Go out to Jesus Christ and experience forgiveness, love, and hope, which reach unimaginable depths in Christ.

Again to those out there that are searching I ask:

Why do you doubt Jesus Christ? Do you believe that Alexander the Great existed? Do you believe King Tut existed? Why would you doubt Jesus Christ? There are many proofs of His life, death, and Resurrection. Historians have taught me there is proof for His existence. The story was recorded by 4 separate authors and today it’s in a book called the Bible.

Look at the faith of the martyrs, the apostles, and the saints. For 2,000 years, millions of people willingly laid down their lives rather than denouce Jesus. Certainly they would not die for nothing.

Look to the fact that the Church has survived every persecution that was thrown against it. Look to the place of Jesus’s Ascension. The spot where Christ had stood could never be covered with pavement; and more than that, the marble slabs placed there burst upwards into the faces of those who were laying them. The footmarks in the dust there prove that the Lord had stood on that spot: the footprints are discernible and the ground still retains the depressions his feet had left. They can not be covered.

Look at the miracles of the Holy Eucharist especially the Miracle of Lanciano that I posted about but no one commented on. Look also to the apparations of Mary in Guadalupe, Knock, Fatima, and Lourdes. Look at the Miracle of the Sun witnessed by 70,000 people in Fatima, some from a great distance than the rest of the group.

I am leaving this forum now. I just ask that no one respond to anymore of my words here. If you don’t, I have no reason to come back and say anything.

For those of you out there that are unsure of God, again I say “seek Him” becasue if you do, you will find Him. If anyone here ever wants to truly search for God or convert to the Catholic faith, I will help you in anyway that I can. You can contact me through my blog.

Good bye, everyone! And, I wish to thank the administration here for allowing me to stay and voice my opinion. I will leave now and no longer bother any of you again.

And, as I expected, they began to insult me again here (you will have to scroll down near the bottom). They also admit in one comment that they have found the comments of you guys, my fellow Catholic friends, on my other post. They said that they deleted all of your comments (again near the bottom). Again they insulted me.

I am sorry if any of you took a lot of time in your comments. I am sorry for this. But, I realize that I can't change them. I am writing this looking a crucifix. His hands are bleedings. His feet are pierced. The man of love that created the world and performed miracles, is condemned to die. And still He died for them. Jesus Christ is forgiveness.

I pray and hope that the people of that forum see charity in my words. For we are a people of faith. We are not the ones insulting and persecuting others like they insist the Church does. We silently accept all persecution and offer it up to our Master. We then are worth something because Jesus gives us strength! I did not use profanity and repeatedly thanked them. For that I was insulted regardless with profane words. For it sadly is the "blind leading the blind and both shall fall into the ditch."

This is why I must become a priest. I am going to do it for love. I still care about each one of them on that blog. I want every last one of them to be in peace forever. I don't want any of them to have to go to hell and look upon the face of the devil. St. Catherine received a vision of the devil once from Our Lord. And she told Him that she would rather walk on burning coals for the rest of eternity than go to hell and look upon the devil's face for one more moment.

I am called to live a life of love and serve everyone. And, I will serve Him in anyway possible. I am called to forgive those that attack me and pray for them. I have done that and will continue to do that.

So my friends, may the Lord, the God of peace, bless you all for your prayers and advice.

"Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you (falsely) because of me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you" (Matthew 5:10-11)
