Any great saints ever write a book called Preparation for Life ?
Deuteronomy 30:19: "I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live."
John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I am come that they may have life, and may have it more abundantly.
====================================================
Sorry, me thinketh this holy hunchback was a bit twisted. Jesus told us to look up for our salvation, not down in casket. The Devil likes you to focus on negatives that cripple the potential Christian.
Go ahead and hate me all you want. With friends like St. Alphonsus, you don't need enemies.
