Check out this video from Turkey of a stray cat comforting his fallen friend. As I watched this video, it made me aware of the lost feeling those who do not believe in God must have when a loved one dies. After all, If they have no God to believe in, then they do not have comfort when they lose a loved one.
Further more, if they do not have Christ, then they also do not understand that through Him there will be a resurrection of the dead. Some to eternal life and others to eternal damnation. I cannot fathom how it must feel to not have that hope to cling to in this world.
Like this cat who will never see its loved one again, so too the lost who have no faith in Christ will never be reunited with their loved ones again. Think about those who have no faith when you watch this video, then maybe like me, you will find yourself shedding a tear for them also.
For those of you who would like to learn about the resurrection and the reunion you can have with your loved ones who passed away. I offer you the Gospel of peace and love. Please pray to Jesus and ask Him to forgive you for your sins, and He will be true to His promise and your life will begin a new.

In those quiet moments in the still of the night
Remember to rejoice and celebrate life
Do not think of me gone and weep
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sunlight on the grain
I am the gentle autumn's rain
When you awaken in the morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in flight
I am the soft stars that shine
You will hear my gentle voice
and remember to rejoice
Never give up your fight
and remember always
to Celebrate Life

About Me: I am a born again Christian who enjoys talking religion and politics. I have always believed that it is the Christian's obligation to understand the workings of our government as well as they do the precepts of God. Jesus tells us to be "wise as serpents and harmless as doves". (Mark 10:16) So it is with this understanding that I approach life. I was born in the Midwest, and while I may have grown up in Northern Minnesota, I have earned my degree in knowledge and understanding from the many regions of America and Europe that I have either lived in or visited as an adult.
I had to stop watching the video halfway through because my eyes were too watery to continue.
The video is pretty good but you got the narrative wrong. You have to confess your sins to a priest and he will forgive them through Jesus. But you already know that since priests are extensions of the apostles and the apostles had the power to forgive sins. See John 20-22 to 23.
LOL... If you are whom I believe you are, well then I know where you normally live.
However you are bound and determined to continue arguing for an illogical position in a debate that you will inevitably lose.
Either way, thanks for stopping by.
If I am wrong in who I think you are then I apologize and you too are wrong about the apostolic succession the Catholic Church claims to have for their priests and their Pope.
I too had to turn it off halfway through.. just too emotional to watch. As for the 2nd comment, thats one of the many things unfortunately Catholics get wrong. Jesus Christ is the mediator between us and God, not priests who have sinful natures and are flawed. Thats the beauty of it all we can speak directly to Jesus and dont have to go through a middle man.
Amen brother.
Isn't it good to know that someone else paid the price?
If he didn't, we would all have to become Jewish, and still be in a world of hurt because PETA would be crucifying us in the media for sacrificing the hundreds of thousands of animal that would be needed for us to just get through one more year.
