THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND GOD AND THAT IS BY PRAYER. THOSE WHO POINT TO ANY OTHER WAY ARE DECEIVING YOU.
"Pray, and you will surely save your immortal soul; neglect prayer, and you will certainly be lost. The man who prays is saved; the man who does not pray is lost. The saints are in Heaven because they made use of prayer; the damned are in Hell because they refused to pray." St. Alphonsus Liguori
Yet I'm sure there'll be some Protestants out there who would quickly split hairs and argue - their favorite pastime - just over the wording of this simple admonition, which is really a serious warning!
