He said those same Catholic faithfuls are miracle seekers and not God seekers if they do not pray the rosary, go for mass daily, receive the sacraments and don’t read their Bible.
“You call yourself Catholic, yet you join NSPPD and share the link on WhatsApp daily. But you don’t go for Mass daily, you don’t pray the Rosary, you don’t receive the sacraments, you don’t read the Bible…
“You are a miracle seeker not a God seeker.”
The priest‘s tweet sparked reactions among Catholics.

Catholic and non-Catholics react

“Pst.Jerry is busy making his money!
“Recently, a former Pentecostal church member (who converted to a Catholic) made a thought provoking statement.
“She said “The Pentecostals work so hard to seek God’s face, but the Catholic Church has made it so easy through the Blessed Sacrament.”
@Kelechu37066234 said:
“If ONLY some knew the power of the Mass, they would commit themselves to it. Sadly, some are eager to see some “drama” before they have faith that something supernatural has taken place. Nonetheless, we bless GOD for the lives touched through his servant on NSPPD.”
@Emmanue45595641 said:
“People can be encouraged to attend Mass, pray the Rosary, and read their Bible while still remaining prayerful. Some miracles lead people to God. On a personal note, NSPPD has strengthened my faith, and I’m still a committed Catholic. People show devotion in diverse ways.”
@Zeekah33 said:
“If only Catholics knows the power in the holy mass. The job I have today is a miracle from attending mass daily and receiving the sacrament.”

“The sacrifice of the new law.
“The sacrament of the Holy Eucharist gives life to the soul.”
