Welcome to Would Jesus Attend?

Dear Visitors,
Thank you for taking the time to come to our site!
The purpose of WouldJesusAttend.com is very simple. Faith without works is dead. Faith is what we do not see; it is what we hope for. We see the goal with our Spiritual eyes. One of the greatest blessings of the Catholic Church is the knowledge that the Church has over 2,000 years of established Commandments and Rules. It is each individual’s decision whether or not to join the Church. In Numbers 23:19, God said He was not a man; that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should change his mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill? So, I take that to the bank all day long. Then Jesus tells us that we need to be on our guard because we have an enemy. Who is the enemy? He is the great deluder, deceiver, father of lies. He goes about like a roaring lion, and he came to kill, steal, and destroy.
When each of us dies, we will be remembered for two things: the problems we caused or the problems we solved! I strongly desire to live as Paul said, forgetting the former things and reaching toward the high calling of serving Jesus Christ. In order to serve the Most Wonderful Living God and Ruler of the Universe, I need to practice integrity—which means my thoughts, words, and actions need to be congruent. Truly, it is a full time job to practice being a good witness for Jesus, yet that is my goal, and when I goof up—the Church provides the solution in the form of Confession and Reconciliation. Nobody is perfect except for Jesus.
So, in closing, I have called the Dallas Diocese, spoken with Annette Gonzales, the Director of Communications, and extended an invitation to Bishop Farrell to be on our Saturday Radio show on KSKY anytime he desires. I called the Des Moines, Iowa Diocese twice and spoke once to a friend of Sister Rupp’s, also invited her to be on the radio, then spoke with Ms. Cox , Director of the Des Moines Diocese Communications Department. I explained that the Dallas Diocese approved of Sr. Rupp’s teaching Catholic women in Plano because Bishop Richard Pates, Bishop of Des Moines, had no problem with Sister’s teaching, and she was not on a list of banned speakers from our USCCB. (Please visit ) Also, I contacted each of the 5 host churches and left messages with various people in charge of the ministry that covers Sr. Rupp’s teaching session and invited them to be on our radio show. Not one of the 5 church representatives called me back. Very interesting, when you consider the value of free air time to advertise or promote Sr. Rupp’s web site and her many books which are for purchase. Another life changing ethical proverb that is smarter than smart which I wish I had always lived by, but did not is this, ‘DO NOT DO ANYTHING I DO NOT WANT ON THE FRONT PAGE OF THE NEWSPAPER.’ (charactercounts.org)
In closing, this battle for the Christ centered hearts and minds of the women who would be attending St. Elizabeth Ann Seton’s retreat are in jeopardy. Please go to the web site of a former new age woman who is dedicating her life to exposing the lies of teaching that is not centered on Jesus (newagedeception.com).
Really, the Lord has made it easy for us. Jesus left us with His Word and how important is His Word? One of His Divine Names is The Word.
Finally, the Secret Service studies real money only, then when they see or feel counterfeit money they know immediately. When you know the TRUTH – which is JESUS – it is natural to have righteous anger when lies are taught as truth. God gave us Shepherds to protect us from deceivers and make sure the spiritual food we eat is good for our eternal souls.
With a heart full of gratitude for HIS love,
Vicki Middleton
