@@InitialPC God chooses freely to work through third partys. He god snap a finger and all would be done. He chooses to have us humans be part of his kingdom, giving some of us specific roles. Have you ever seen a kingdom with just the King and no one else? Gods wants us to actively participate. That’s crucial to understand here.
@@InitialPC, I urge you to study the Bible more. Nowhere did Jesus teach that you can only repent and confess to a priest. You are 100% able to confess and repent to God in private, and you are 100% allowed to talk to God in private. 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” This verse shows us how to confess our sins to God, acknowledge our wrongdoings, and seek forgiveness. Psalm 32:5: “I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.’”
What a beautiful, humble Catholic man. The bible tells you to confess your sins to God and to each other. I appreciate your honesty when you said you don't understand Catholic teachings, I really recommend you learn them before you start telling random dads what they believe.
The Bible also says not to bow down to statues or to revere Mary for being Jesus' mother, both those things are codified into the Bible. 52% of catholics have never read the Bible. PEW.
@@InitialPC What percentage of protestants affirm LGBTQ lifestyle, abortion, divorce, female pastors? What percentage of first-century Christians had never read the bible? PEW surveys are not a determinant of doctrinal truth.
@@InitialPC What about the bronze serpent God instructed Moses to put up? Just to name one example. Please learn more, before you judge based on cherry picked verses.
@@ShamrockRagEll Show me the verse that says bow down to statues of the Virgin Mary. You are getting one single extreme unique instance and using it to justify a rule.
@@InitialPC Why don’t you answer my question first? You said the Bible says not to bow to statues. I gave you an example, where it said exactly that. The bible doesn’t have to read "You are allowed to bow to a statue of Mary". If it said "don’t bow to any statues" that would be something else. However, it doesn’t say that. The commandment of not making any images addressed the issue, that at the time, pagan religions made statues and bowed to them. God forbade to bow to those statues. There were no Mary statues to even talk about. And by the way: We don’t worship Mary, even though non-catholics keep saying that.
If you're going to really try to convert Catholics then at least try to really learn what we really believe and why like Scott Hahn who became Catholic, did.
I am a former protestant who was baptised, confirmed and received Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist for the first time on the Vigil of Pentecost 2020. I'm extremely grateful for my protestant upbringing and life i lived serving in the youth ministry of my former (c)hurch, but i am now come to believe that the fullness of Christ can only be found in His Church, the One True Church which he himself established; the Catholic Church. Also, where are all the protestant comments here rooting for this man?
I appreciate this man for not buying what these protestants are selling. I do wish more Catholics read their Bibles though, but I see this problem from protestants as well.
The church thrives when we pursue Jesus. The Catholic Church was badly in need of reform before Martin Luther but no one had the courage to make any changes. Jesus is the head of the church and we in Christ are the church.
@@BibleAndFriends I hope You do realize that for the first 300+ years of Christianity, there WAS NO BIBLE as it exists today and until the invention of the printing press near the year 1500, almost NO ONE owned a bible!
@@BibleAndFriends he absolutely has. To say that is to say that for the first 1600 years of Christianity no one heard the gospel. Your little bastardized form of “Christianity” has no history before the 16th century.
@@BibleAndFriends You have not heard the gospel! The gospel is very clear, in fact the GOSPEL OF MATTHEW SAYS how God gave the power to MEN on earth to forgive sins. Matthew 9:2-8 "Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.” And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!” But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’? But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”-then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” And he arose and departed to his house. Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to MEN." SO, if you analyze the doctrine of the CHRIST, the father send him to forgive sins, and God gave that power to men. Jesus then says: "As the father sent me... I also send you.... If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them...." Catholicism is 100% doctrine of the Christ! Forgiveness of sins by MEN on earth is 100% doctrine of the Christ! You are the one who hasn't heard the Gospel. You are the anathema for preaching him another gospel!
What is up with other Christians trying to “preach the gospel” to Catholics? You guys should really be focusing on people who don’t know Christ, like Muslims, atheists, or Jews, not people who are already Christian…and yes, Catholics are Christian and if you looked at the church in the first 2 centuries after Jesus you would see much more of a resemblance with Catholics and orthodox than Protestants.
I don't believe Catholics are Christian, so that's why we share the Good News of Jesus with them! I care for ALL souls and want to see as many people in Heaven as possible. Thanks for sharing though.
@@BibleAndFriends And the truth is that you’re wrong. You actually would not even fit the definition of a Christian if you asked a Christian from the 2nd century, so I would be very careful with saying that Catholics are not Christian. Some of you Protestants genuinely don’t realize the arrogance you speak with and many of you are very quick to condemn people who are a part of Christ’s flock. If you are that quick to say that Catholics are not Christian and therefore condemned, I would fear for the day you stand in front of the Lord Himself.
May God bless this Catholic father. These two other men have so many misconceptions of the Catholic Church in just this short video. I pray that the Catholic man deepens his faith in the Church created by Christ Himself and is more prepared to defend it in the future in instances like this.
@BibleAndFriends kind of a broad brush you are using there. Give me one false teaching at a time from the Catholic Church that I can actually respond to. Otherwise what you said is not in good faith. I pray that you come home to the one true Church founded by Jesus.
"confession is no where in the bible" - protestants Catholics - The Jews have been going to priests for the forgiveness of sins the law of Moses. Read Leviticus chapter 5. And Jesus instituted the sacrament of confession to the apostles in John chapter 20. Alot of protestants act like Catholic the teachings are nowhere found in the bible.
The difference is that Jesus is the only atonement for our sins and if you believe in Him alone He will raise you up on the last Day. Forgiving other brothers and sisters is God's will so much that if we dont forgive others the Father will not forgive us. The twisting of scripture will be that you need to go too some other specially ordained person to ask forgiveness, which we dont. Jesus is our High Priest, King, Redeemer and Savior till forever. So the only High Priest we go to know in alignment with God's Word is Jesus directly. Then if we need to forgive or ask forgiveness to other people we go directly to them and try to do our part to remain on peace with that person in so far we can on our part. Everybody that trully believes and trusts in Jesus with all their heart is called a Saint by God and part of God's family. Catholic faith departs from this which is dangerous.
@@ant9771 we have the actual eye witness reports and teachings from Jesus disciples and apostles. Peter actually confirmed also scripture and Paul's writings. We also have a warning to not add to God's word. My teaching dont come from Martin Luther but directly from the apostles/disciples themselves. If you want to follow teachings that contradict what Jesus own disciples wrote down you have a problem yourself sir. We dont need to follow a certain persons teachings and we have the new testament itself. We will see on judgement day what the true faith is. I put my trust in Jesus alone and what his disciples wrote down. Any other contradictong teachings are falls. Your socalled true faith contradicts the new testament. I hope and pray your eyes will be opened from falls teachings.
@@ant9771 You believe whatever you want, but I follow what Jesus himself said: John 6:40 and 47. Jesus will be our judge on judgement day. "And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day."
@@Racingfan101 not so. Jesus gave His Apostles the authority to found the Church and promised the Gates of Hell would not prevail against it. He also in John 20 gave them the authority, through breathing upon them the Holy Spirit, to direct the Church. The Apostles did this by laying on of hands to their successors. What you spout is from 16th Century reformers-who barely agreed with each other. Instead of unifying, they divided the church in Northern Europe. If you follow them, you are far from the Kingdom!
What a clown show these Protestant channels. Believing is active in the Bible and not just mental assent, and it's even described as "work" in John 6:29. Confession to one another is in the Bible in both John 20 and in James. Purgation is in the Bible in different places like 1 Cor 3 and 2 Maccabees 13. Also, assurance of Salvation is presumptuous as Christ is the judge and not yourself. We might hope and pray the Lord to sanctify us for salvation but the one on the judgment seat is Christ our Lord. There you are, all your silly arguments debunked.
A) confessing to others =/= you cannot confess to God and absolutely have to confess to a priest B) using 1 cor 3 is a huge stretch, basing an entire doctrine off a single vague verse is dishonest, if I cited ephesians to say salvation is by faith alone you would say the same C) if you have to cite books outside of the bible to confirm your beliefs, its not biblical 1 and 2 maccabees was canonized just to spite protestants, thats why 3 and 4 maccabees werent canonized as well because they couldnt be used to rebuke protestants the orthodox church believes in all of the books from the septuagint, the catholics dont, why is that? D) youre right, Jesus is the judge, and it is because of what this judge says in the Bible that protestants believe salvation is guaranteed
@@InitialPC The real question raised by your objections is one of authority. to whom did Jesus give authority? When I was at Oklahoma Wesleyan this was a hot topic among us students and between us and our professors. So what do you say? Where is the authoritative source of objective Truth?
@@InitialPC God works through the priest, via the authority that He gave to the apostles when he said whatever sins they forgive would be forgiven and whatever sins they held against an individual would be counted against them. God chooses to work through people. The Catholic bible was canonized long before Protestants even existed. It sounds like you're saying 1 and 2 Maccabees were added after the reformation, which is just factually untrue. That's an odd way to interpret Christ saying we cannot make that judgement. It just doesn't seem like working out your salvation with fear and trembling, so I'm curious what you mean about being so assured of your salvation based on the bible.
Catholics don’t believe that if you don’t go to confession you are doomed. In fact they say you can go to confession and still be doomed. It’s about heart posture and the mercy of God.
And we were taught that even if a priest is not present at death, offering an "Act of Contrition" sincerely is trust in the final mercy of God. These Protestants think we don't know Jesus. They are blind, deaf and dumb!

I became protestant for some time and was even serving in ministry, very invested in my faith. But the more I looked into church history and got deeper in my relationship with the Lord, it just made sense to be Catholic. All of these protestant ideas have just came about in the past few hundred years. There’s so many important topics that protestants miss such as the true presence in the Eucharist. I do appreciate the kindness that these guys come off with and they really believe they are doing the right thing but protestantism is really not it

@@BibleAndFriends Which truth? "Your truth" or the truth? This is the issue with non-Catholic churches. They use sola scriptura to find "their truth." They approach their faith with a "what I want to believe" mindset. This is why we have thousands of denominations and see so much church hopping within the non-Catholic sphere of Christianity. Everyone is just looking for "their truth." They just search for a church that preaches "their truth" and if they can't find one, they just call themselves non-denominational. Catholicism, on the other hand, encourages its faithful to approach Christianity with a "what I ought to believe" mindset. It asks its faithful to have a Christ-like submission of will and ascent of faith. It encourages its faithful to submit to the truth. Now, I'll leave it up to you to decide if a "what I want to believe" mindset or a "what I ought to believe" mindset is more Christ-like, but I think you already know the answer.

If I weren't Catholic, I'd look for the Church that the world despises, for the world despised Jesus, and he would be there. - Fulton Sheen Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.". Things seemed to be going pretty well. That is until Jesus said “For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood,dwelleth in me, and I in him.” This was too much for many of his disciples and “From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.” Jesus turns to the 12 and asks, “Will ye also go away? Vs 61, Jesus did not back down, for He said, "Does this offend you?" it offends protestants. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Jn 20:21, "As the Father has sent Me, I also send you." Jn 17:18, "Even as thou hast sent Me into the world, so I have sent them into the world." Jn 17:22-23, "And the glory that thou hast given Me, I have given to Matt. 28, 18-20: And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye, therefore. and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen. Jesus says to the crowd, "He who believes and is baptized will be saved." But in reference to the same people, Jesus immediately follows with "He who does not believe will be condemned." This demonstrates that one can be baptized and still not be a believer. This disproves the Protestant argument that one must be a believer to be baptized. There is nothing in the Bible about a "believer's baptism." "Accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior," or "Ask Jesus into your heart" isn't the biblical answer. It’s important to be saved from hell, damnation, and the stain of original sin, but what are we saved for? We are saved for union with Christ. Our salvation began when we were born again through baptism and God’s own Divine Life was restored in our souls, making us like Adam and Eve were in the Garden before the Original (first) Sin. As we go through life, we are united with Christ through the Sacraments he left as gifts for us, especially through Penance (forgiveness of our sins committed since Baptism) and the Eucharist (partaking of God’s own Life, His own Divine Nature, 2 Peter 1:4) - until that day when we are truly united with Him in heaven. Scripture teaches that one’s final salvation depends on the state of the soul at death. As Jesus himself tells us, "He who endures to the end will be saved" (Matt. 24:13; cf. 25:31-46). One who dies in the state of friendship with God (the state of grace) will go to heaven. The one who dies in a state of rebellion against God (the state of mortal sin) will go to hell. (For the teaching on venial (non-deadly) and mortal (deadly) sins, see 1 John 5:16-17) What I must do to be saved: *I must be baptized with water and the Spirit. Mark 16:16, John 3:3-5, Titus 3:5, I Peter 3:20-21. (Exceptions: [1] If I desire Baptism but die before I can be baptized with water and the Spirit, God accepts my desire to be baptized, and [2] If I am killed (martyred) because of my faith, but I have not had the opportunity to be baptized, God accepts my death as my baptism, called the Baptism of Blood). * I must do the will of God the Father. Matthew 7:21 * I must keep the Commandments of God. Matthew 5:19-20, Matthew 7:21, Matthew 19:17, 1 Timothy 6:14, and others.
* I must accept the Cross (suffering). Matthew 10:38, Matthew 16:24-25, Mark 8:34, Luke 9:23, Luke 14:27. Phil 1:29, and others. * I must be a member of God's true church. Acts 2:46-47. * I must confess my sins. James 5:16, I John 1:9, John 20:19-23 * I must heed the words of St. Peter, the first Pope. Acts 11:13-14, Acts 15:7. * I must eat the flesh and drink the blood of Jesus Christ. John 6:51-58, I Corinthians 10:16-17, 11:23-30. * I must do unto others as I would have them do unto me and love my neighbor as myself. I must feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, clothe the naked, visit the sick and those in prison or give other aid to those in need. Luke 10:33 ff, Mt 25:31-46. "Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are very pleasing to God" Hebrews 13:16. Good works don’t save us, but we will be judged by them. *I must strive to be holy. "Strive for peace with everyone and for that holiness without which no one will see the Lord." Hebrews 12:14 *I must endure (persevere) to the end. Matthew 10:22, Matthew 24:13, Mark 13:13. And ... ? What else must I do? Catechism #432 The name "Jesus" signifies that the very name of God is present in the person of his Son, made man for the universal and definitive redemption from sins. It is the divine name that alone brings salvation, and henceforth all can invoke his name, for Jesus united himself to all men through his Incarnation, so that "there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
I’m a Catholic who was a Reformed Protestant and would’ve thought I was becoming apostate 4 years ago 😂 One thing that Protestants have that is admirable is a zeal and fervor. It is definitely sad when a Catholic does not understand the faith or devote himself to it (although there are plenty of Protestants in the same exact boat). But that doesn’t invalidate the Church itself. Protestants assuming that Catholics don’t have the true gospel is largely based on what they’ve heard from Catholics who do not take their faith very seriously. Dig deep, and find that what the Church has held to for the last 2,000 years has always been the true faith. Here’s quote I never heard as a Protestant, “For my part, I should not believe the gospel except as moved by the authority of the Catholic Church.” - St. Augustine (Against the Fundamental Epistle of Manichaeus)

"I don't understand the catholic faith" followed by him telling this guy that catholicism is wrong lol. The Catholic Church teaches we are justified by grace alone through faith. "Works" aren't mentioned a single time in the section on justification in the Catholic Catechism.
More protestants who claim to know the bible yet they reject clear biblical teachings! Because this Catholic man was not certain where purgatory is in the bible does not mean it is not there. The Apocalypse of St. John clearly states of heaven: 21"[27] There shall not enter into it any thing defiled". If you are not perfected and you still have sin, you shall not enter heaven. "[11] For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid; which is Christ Jesus. [12] Now if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble: [13] Every man's work shall be manifest; for the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it shall be revealed in fire; and the fire shall try every man's work, of what sort it is. [14] If any man's work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. [15] If any man's work burn, he shall suffer loss; but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire." 1st Epistle of St Paul to the Corinthians 3 = PURGATORY. ([12] "Upon this foundation": The foundation is Christ and his doctrine: or the true faith in him, working through charity. The building upon this foundation gold, silver, and precious stones, signifies the more perfect preaching and practice of the gospel; the wood, hay, and stubble, such preaching as that of the Corinthian teachers (who affected the pomp of words and human eloquence) and such practice as is mixed with much imperfection, and many lesser sins. Now the day of the Lord, and his fiery trial, (in the particular judgment immediately after death,) shall make manifest of what sort every man's work has been: of which, during this life, it is hard to make a judgment. For then the fire of God's judgment shall try every man's work. And they, whose works, like wood, hay, and stubble, cannot abide the fire, shall suffer loss; these works being found to be of no value; yet they themselves, having built upon the right foundation, (by living and dying in the true faith and in the state of grace, though with some imperfection,) shall be saved yet so as by fire; being liable to this punishment, by reason of the wood, hay, and stubble, which was mixed with their building.) PURGATORY!
@@BibleAndFriends Sorry friend! DEFINITELY talking about purgatory! By the way, on what authority do you say it's not speaking about purgatory? Your own conclusions? Some random pastor who taught you? Are you claiming you know better than the early Church Fathers?
@@BibleAndFriends There are 14 separate verses in the New Testament which affirm the Christian Doctrine of Purgatory....you just don't like those verses.

by the way, you asked for where purgatory in the bible. well if you protestants didn’t remove the deuterocanon and label them as “apocrypha”, you’d know where to find it. no where in the bible does it say when a person should be baptized, yet so many protestant denominations argue with each other about if an infant can be baptized or not.
I agree. It's funny how he says "I don't understand the entire Catholic faith", which I'm assuming means he doesn't know most of what the church teaches, and yet he says "that's not what the Catholic faith teaches". If you are not in a state of deadly sin and you are continuously trying to do God's will, what is there to fear? Great job to the dad for staying cool
John 20:21-23 "Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.’ When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.’
@@BibleAndFriends No problem, also Matthew 9:2-8 says how God gave the power to MEN on earth to forgive sins. Matthew 9:2-8 "Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.” And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!” But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts?

Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to MEN." SO, if you analyze the doctrine of the CHRIST, the father send him to forgive sins, and God gave that power to men. Jesus then says: "As the father sent me... I also send you.... If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them...." Catholicism is 100% doctrine of the Christ! Forgiveness of sins on earth is 100% doctrine of the Christ!
@@bluecomb5376 Jesus doctrine was very clear on John 13:20 Jesus sends his apostles, his church, those who Jesus himself gave the power to forgive sins on earth. But those who reject them, reject Jesus and the Father who send them! Rejecting the church of Jesus, rejecting those who Jesus sent to forgive sins of any on earth is a huge error that the protestants make. For this reason, the protestant's sins will be retained, because they did not accept those who Jesus sent to forgive the sins of the world, just like the Father send Jesus.
Trying to convert people that already have strong faith in Christ seems pretty pointless to me also you clearly don’t understand what Catholics believe about salvation maybe you should actually understand what the Church teaches sir
Right off the top.. "is that the faith that you want?" And in my journey I've found this to be the big problem with a protestants (not all) they interpret scripture they want their faith to be, they enforce their belief by isolating pockets or single versus of scripture while ignoring the majority of what the word of God teaches

There is only ONE Church, one body and one spirit.. Protestants try to stray away from the body of Christ. They make a Church without a head. We need to study Catholic to defend the CHURCH Christ Established.
Im not catholic nor orthodox yet. I grew up in Pentecostal church my family left when I was about 8 years old. I’m 30 now started reading my Bible and I believe it’s true. So I was curious who put these scriptures together and it turns out it was the One apostolic Catholic Orthodox Church guided through Holy Spirit that canonized the Bible. I immediately humbled myself and realized Catholicism is not what I perceived it to be. So now I’m learning the theology through the lens of catholic/orthodox tradition rather than the Protestant point of view.
Jesus Christ gave us a Church, not a book. All Protestant religions are man made. If you want to learn about Jesus’ Church, I invite you to read the Catechism, it’s not very long.
@@destingollamudi I'm sure there are some Catholics who may be saved, but in generally most Catholics are not saved. They put their trust in their works and not Jesus.
Funny you mention that... I haven't gone to a doctor for probably over 15 years. I do go to Jesus! But, I'm not saying doctors are bad because God will heal people through doctors. I just haven't gone to them in a very long time.
When Jesus said, "It is finished." He had just drank the last cup of the Passover Feast on the cross. Jesus Christ became the Passover Lamb. Jesus Christ is the Eucharist celebrated in the Mass. The thief that was crucified with Christ did not go to heaven immediately after he died. Jesus didn't go to heaven immediately either. Paradise was where all the Jews/Israelites/God's people went in the OT. Jesus descended after he died to bring the people in Paradise to heaven (or some scholars say preach to them about His salvation and heaven). You have misinterpreted the Scriptures and are preaching a Gospel of your own and not of Jesus Christ.
I'm hoping this will encourage you to abandon your position. You are pushing people away from the Lord. Galatians 5:26 ESV Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another. Proverbs 29:22 ESV A man of wrath stirs up strife, and one given to anger causes much transgression. Colossians 3:21 ESV Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged. Proverbs 21:19 ESV (this one is good, literally its better to not be a Christian if they must associate with your likes.) It is better to live in a desert land than with a quarrelsome and fretful woman. James 1:19 ESV Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; Proverbs 20:3 ESV It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife, but every fool will be quarreling. Philippians 2:3 ESV (maybe something to consider when you think of Catholics who you obviously loath) Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Ephesians 4:1-32 ESV I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit-just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call- one Lord, one faith, one baptism, .

Watch the video without sound - Bible and Friends - you will see your neck coming forward in an aggressive way - this man smiling and protecting his child - you should have the kindness not to approach someone like this; you have the Law first and Love second. Love your neighbour first. You were peaceful-aggressive towards him. Next time, sit on a bench and invite people to sit with you. In this way you can be fully peaceful in your approach.

@@BibleAndFriends This is fair. It's unfortunate that most Catholics are too lukewarm and unconcerned to approach you and share their faith. Perhaps you should look for ex-Protestants who converted to Catholicism. People like me are the most vigorous defenders of the Catholic truth.

THE SEVEN SACRAMENTS INSTITUTED BY JESUS CHRIST Sacraments are essential elements of the New Covenant Law, revealed in visible signs that were instituted by Jesus Christ during His earthly ministry, by which invisible grace and inward sanctification are communicated to the soul. Sacrament Scripture Reference Catechism Reference 1. Baptism: the sacrament by which a person, whether a baby, child, or adult, receives an indelible spiritual mark, is cleansed of all sin and is reborn into the family of God, being sanctified by Christ to everlasting life by means of the sign of water and the action of the Holy Spirit. Of Jesus: Matthew 3:13-17; Mark 1:9-11; Luke 3:21-22; John 1:29-33 Necessity of Christian baptism: Matthew 3:11; Mark 1:4-8; Luke 3:16; John 3:1-21; Acts 2:38; 11:15-17; 19:1-7; Ephesians 4:5; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Galatians 3:25-28; Colossians 2:12-13 Significance of Baptism: CCC 628, 950, 1213-14, 1220, 1227-28, 1234-45, 1262, 1272-74, 1617 Baptism of infants: CCC 403, 1231, 1233, 1250-52, 1282, 1290 Baptism of adults: CCC 1247-49 Baptismal promises: CCC 1185, 1254, 2101, 2340 2. Confirmation: through the laying on of hands, anointing with chrism (oil), and prayer a person's baptism is confirmed (completion of baptismal grace) and is strengthened by the Holy Spirit to publically profess the faith and live up to the role of Christ's apostle. Matthew 3:13-17 John 1:33-34 Acts 8:14-17; 10:38 CCC 1285-1321 Effects of Confirmation: CCC 1302-05 Who can receive: CCC 1306-11 Minister of Confirmation: CCC 1312-14 3. Reconciliation/Penance: the sacrament of spiritual healing in which, through certain acts of the penitent and by the absolution of a qualified priest, sins committed after baptism are remitted and fellowship with God is restored. Matthew 16:19; 18:18 John 20:22-23 CCC 1422-1498 Names of the sacrament: CCC 1423-24 Necessity of interior penance: CCC 1430-39 Why Jesus gave the power to forgive sins to the Church: CCC 1441-49 Effects: CCC 1468-71 4. Holy Orders: the sacrament of Apostolic Ministry by which the mission entrusted to the Apostles by Jesus Christ continues to be exercised in His Church. This sacrament confers on a man the power of consecrating the offering of the Body and Blood of Christ and of remitting and retaining sins. Matthew 16:19; 18:18 John 13:3-15 John 19:22-23 Acts 1:15-26 CCC 1113, 1120, 1142, 1210, 1536-1600 Holy Orders in the Economy of Salvation: CCC 1539-71 Effects of Holy Orders: CCC 1581-1600 5. Matrimony: the sacramental binding covenant between a baptized man and woman in which they agree to eternal fidelity to each other and commit to being God's partners in the creation of new life. John 2:1-12 CCC 1601-1666 In the order of Creation: CCC 1601-05 Marriage in the Lord: CCC 1612-17 Unity and indissolubility of marriage: CCC 1644-51 Partners in God's plan for humanity: CCC 1652-54 6. Anointing of the sick: the sacrament in which the sick are anointed with holy oil and given the spiritual aid and strength to return to spiritual and bodily health, including, if needed, the remission of sins. Matthew 4:23; 9:35; Mark 6:13; Luke 9:11; Acts 10:38; James 5:14-15 CCC 1499-1532 Foundation in the economy of salvation: CCC 1500-13 Who administers and receives: CCC 1514-16 How celebrated and administered: CCC 1517-19 Effects: CCC 1520-23 7. Eucharist: the sacrament in which the faithful, in a state of grace, receive the true Body and Blood of Jesus Christ who is really and substantially present under the appearances of bread and wine. It is called the Eucharist, meaning "the thanksgiving," because at its institution at the Last Supper Jesus "gave thanks;" and it is by this fact that the sacrament is the supreme act of the baptized Christian's gratitude to God. Matthew 26:26-29; Mark 14:22-25; Luke 22:19-20; 1 Corinthians 11:23-25 CCC 1322-1419 Institution of the Eucharist: CCC 1337-44 The source and summit of ecclesial life: CCC 1324-27 The sacrificial memorial of the Lord's Passion and Resurrection and of His Body, the Church: CCC 1330-32; 1362-
"I don't understand Catholicism in all of its fullness". And there is the rub. If you don't understand Catholicism then why would you presume to preach against it? Of all the arrogance to presume to speak against something you clearly know nothing about. The Catholic Church does not teach that you "do the Sacraments" in order to be saved or maintain your salvation in the way that you insinuate. The Catholic Church teaches that you are saved by the Grace of God through faith, but not an empty faith that isn't void of love for God which obeys Christ. I encourage you to study Catholic teaching before you presume to preach against it. You can save your erroneous evangelism explosion for the ignorant and unlearned who don't know better.
@@BibleAndFriends Yeh assuming Catholics do not know the gospel is the height of arrogance. I would suggest you examine your conscience carefully before doing anything so condescending again in the future. You risk disturbing and harming the faith of devout and dedicated Christians by confusing them with modern-day worldly thinking and by causing division.
@@BibleAndFriends Yes knowledgeable Catholics will tell you to go away if you are lucky, otherwise they will take you to school of your so called "Gospel", which in reality your favourite reformer's corrupt version of the gospel which you support by adding words to the bible. Not a single knowledgeable Catholic has ever listened to you and was convinced by your arguments....that much we know for certain
"It is finished" is the last thing He said before he died on the cross. I did mention that when he was dying on the cross that's what he said. I should have been a little more clear since I did mention the last thing he said while on earth. Thanks for chiming in! 🙂
We are not saved by grace alone. James 2:24 man is justified by works and not by faith alone. James 2:26 faith without faith with out works are dead. Mortal sin: 1 John 5 16-17 If anyone sees his brother committing what is not a DEADLY sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those in sin is not deadly. THERE IS SIN WHICH IS DEADLY: ETC.
@5:09 Repentance (metanoia) more than just an acknowledgement that we are sinners. What do you mean by faith? What do you mean by trust (aka. hope)? what do you mean by grace? (more than just an unmerited attitude, correect?) Grace is an ontological reality, a gift that chances us, makes us adopted children of God ( John 3:5) These are virtues and are more than just intellectual acknowledgements.
What did Jesus say to the other thief? You are misleading this Catholic. Jesus said nothing to the other thief! So you really think Jesus suffered on the cross and shed His blood for the other thief who did not repent? 😢😢
You both are wrong, come home to Holy Orthodoxy. What is the gospel? As stated in the nicene creed: For us and for our salvation, He came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man. Nothing more nothing less.
@@BibleAndFriendsWell fortunately the nicene creed is true and will remain ever true as the binding statement of faith for christians. Not sure thats the move you want to make.
@@BibleAndFriends Well actually, technically, you could be a Christian, but you are not “saved”. No one on this side of the glass is saved yet…The great Judgment has _not_ happened yet.
Confession is such a wonderful sacrament, showing God's mercy in such a personal way. It's wonderful and affects your very soul.
Except it's mandatory, you cannot confess and repent privately to God you have to rely on a priest. That's the opposite of personal.
@@InitialPC God chooses freely to work through third partys. He god snap a finger and all would be done. He chooses to have us humans be part of his kingdom, giving some of us specific roles. Have you ever seen a kingdom with just the King and no one else? Gods wants us to actively participate. That’s crucial to understand here.

catholicism is completely false against the bible and Jesus
@@InitialPC, I urge you to study the Bible more. Nowhere did Jesus teach that you can only repent and confess to a priest. You are 100% able to confess and repent to God in private, and you are 100% allowed to talk to God in private.
1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”
This verse shows us how to confess our sins to God, acknowledge our wrongdoings, and seek forgiveness.
Psalm 32:5: “I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover up my iniquity. I said, ‘I will confess my transgressions to the Lord.’”
What a beautiful, humble Catholic man.
The bible tells you to confess your sins to God and to each other.
I appreciate your honesty when you said you don't understand Catholic teachings, I really recommend you learn them before you start telling random dads what they believe.
The Bible also says not to bow down to statues or to revere Mary for being Jesus' mother, both those things are codified into the Bible.
52% of catholics have never read the Bible. PEW.
@@InitialPC What percentage of protestants affirm LGBTQ lifestyle, abortion, divorce, female pastors? What percentage of first-century Christians had never read the bible? PEW surveys are not a determinant of doctrinal truth.

@@ShamrockRagEll Show me the verse that says bow down to statues of the Virgin Mary.
You are getting one single extreme unique instance and using it to justify a rule.
@@InitialPC Why don’t you answer my question first? You said the Bible says not to bow to statues. I gave you an example, where it said exactly that.
The bible doesn’t have to read "You are allowed to bow to a statue of Mary". If it said "don’t bow to any statues" that would be something else. However, it doesn’t say that.
The commandment of not making any images addressed the issue, that at the time, pagan religions made statues and bowed to them. God forbade to bow to those statues. There were no Mary statues to even talk about.
And by the way: We don’t worship Mary, even though non-catholics keep saying that.

Unfortunately, he hasn't heard the Gospel.
@@BibleAndFriends he absolutely has. To say that is to say that for the first 1600 years of Christianity no one heard the gospel.
Your little bastardized form of “Christianity” has no history before the 16th century.
@@BibleAndFriends You have not heard the gospel! The gospel is very clear, in fact the GOSPEL OF MATTHEW SAYS how God gave the power to MEN on earth to forgive sins. Matthew 9:2-8 "Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.” And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!” But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’? But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”-then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” And he arose and departed to his house. Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to MEN."
SO, if you analyze the doctrine of the CHRIST, the father send him to forgive sins, and God gave that power to men. Jesus then says: "As the father sent me... I also send you.... If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them...."
Catholicism is 100% doctrine of the Christ! Forgiveness of sins by MEN on earth is 100% doctrine of the Christ! You are the one who hasn't heard the Gospel. You are the anathema for preaching him another gospel!
@@BibleAndFriends And you reject the True Gospel!
@@BibleAndFriends why’d you delete my comment
What is up with other Christians trying to “preach the gospel” to Catholics? You guys should really be focusing on people who don’t know Christ, like Muslims, atheists, or Jews, not people who are already Christian…and yes, Catholics are Christian and if you looked at the church in the first 2 centuries after Jesus you would see much more of a resemblance with Catholics and orthodox than Protestants.

You actually would not even fit the definition of a Christian if you asked a Christian from the 2nd century, so I would be very careful with saying that Catholics are not Christian. Some of you Protestants genuinely don’t realize the arrogance you speak with and many of you are very quick to condemn people who are a part of Christ’s flock. If you are that quick to say that Catholics are not Christian and therefore condemned, I would fear for the day you stand in front of the Lord Himself.

"confession is no where in the bible" - protestants
Catholics - The Jews have been going to priests for the forgiveness of sins the law of Moses. Read Leviticus chapter 5. And Jesus instituted the sacrament of confession to the apostles in John chapter 20.
Alot of protestants act like Catholic the teachings are nowhere found in the bible.
The difference is that Jesus is the only atonement for our sins and if you believe in Him alone He will raise you up on the last Day. Forgiving other brothers and sisters is God's will so much that if we dont forgive others the Father will not forgive us. The twisting of scripture will be that you need to go too some other specially ordained person to ask forgiveness, which we dont. Jesus is our High Priest, King, Redeemer and Savior till forever. So the only High Priest we go to know in alignment with God's Word is Jesus directly. Then if we need to forgive or ask forgiveness to other people we go directly to them and try to do our part to remain on peace with that person in so far we can on our part. Everybody that trully believes and trusts in Jesus with all their heart is called a Saint by God and part of God's family. Catholic faith departs from this which is dangerous.
@@ant9771 we have the actual eye witness reports and teachings from Jesus disciples and apostles. Peter actually confirmed also scripture and Paul's writings.

We dont need to follow a certain persons teachings and we have the new testament itself. We will see on judgement day what the true faith is.

@Racingfan101 Amen!
@@Racingfan101 not so. Jesus gave His Apostles the authority to found the Church and promised the Gates of Hell would not prevail against it. He also in John 20 gave them the authority, through breathing upon them the Holy Spirit, to direct the Church. The Apostles did this by laying on of hands to their successors. What you spout is from 16th Century reformers-who barely agreed with each other. Instead of unifying, they divided the church in Northern Europe. If you follow them, you are far from the Kingdom!
What a clown show these Protestant channels. Believing is active in the Bible and not just mental assent, and it's even described as "work" in John 6:29. Confession to one another is in the Bible in both John 20 and in James. Purgation is in the Bible in different places like 1 Cor 3 and 2 Maccabees 13. Also, assurance of Salvation is presumptuous as Christ is the judge and not yourself. We might hope and pray the Lord to sanctify us for salvation but the one on the judgment seat is Christ our Lord.
There you are, all your silly arguments debunked.
A) confessing to others =/= you cannot confess to God and absolutely have to confess to a priest
B) using 1 cor 3 is a huge stretch, basing an entire doctrine off a single vague verse is dishonest, if I cited ephesians to say salvation is by faith alone you would say the same
C) if you have to cite books outside of the bible to confirm your beliefs, its not biblical
1 and 2 maccabees was canonized just to spite protestants, thats why 3 and 4 maccabees werent canonized as well because they couldnt be used to rebuke protestants
the orthodox church believes in all of the books from the septuagint, the catholics dont, why is that?
D) youre right, Jesus is the judge, and it is because of what this judge says in the Bible that protestants believe salvation is guaranteed
@@InitialPC The real question raised by your objections is one of authority. to whom did Jesus give authority? When I was at Oklahoma Wesleyan this was a hot topic among us students and between us and our professors. So what do you say? Where is the authoritative source of objective Truth?
@@InitialPC God works through the priest, via the authority that He gave to the apostles when he said whatever sins they forgive would be forgiven and whatever sins they held against an individual would be counted against them. God chooses to work through people.
The Catholic bible was canonized long before Protestants even existed. It sounds like you're saying 1 and 2 Maccabees were added after the reformation, which is just factually untrue.
That's an odd way to interpret Christ saying we cannot make that judgement. It just doesn't seem like working out your salvation with fear and trembling, so I'm curious what you mean about being so assured of your salvation based on the bible.
Its awful! These people are why people hate the Lord. Jesus never went up to people and started to act like a random weirdo.
@@brotherdamien1804 Not an issue of authority at all, priests having the authority to forgive sins =/= banning private confession to God.

@@BibleAndFriends Which truth? "Your truth" or the truth?
This is the issue with non-Catholic churches. They use sola scriptura to find "their truth." They approach their faith with a "what I want to believe" mindset. This is why we have thousands of denominations and see so much church hopping within the non-Catholic sphere of Christianity. Everyone is just looking for "their truth." They just search for a church that preaches "their truth" and if they can't find one, they just call themselves non-denominational.
Catholicism, on the other hand, encourages its faithful to approach Christianity with a "what I ought to believe" mindset. It asks its faithful to have a Christ-like submission of will and ascent of faith. It encourages its faithful to submit to the truth.
Now, I'll leave it up to you to decide if a "what I want to believe" mindset or a "what I ought to believe" mindset is more Christ-like, but I think you already know the answer.

If I weren't Catholic, I'd look for the Church that the world despises, for the world despised Jesus, and he would be there. - Fulton Sheen
Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.". Things seemed to be going pretty well. That is until Jesus said “For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood,dwelleth in me, and I in him.” This was too much for many of his disciples and “From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.” Jesus turns to the 12 and asks, “Will ye also go away? Vs 61, Jesus did not back down, for He said, "Does this offend you?" it offends protestants. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
Jn 20:21, "As the Father has sent Me, I also send you."
Jn 17:18, "Even as thou hast sent Me into the world, so I have sent them into the world."
Jn 17:22-23, "And the glory that thou hast given Me, I have given to

Go ye, therefore. and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Jesus says to the crowd, "He who believes and is baptized will be saved." But in reference to the same people, Jesus immediately follows with "He who does not believe will be condemned." This demonstrates that one can be baptized and still not be a believer. This disproves the Protestant argument that one must be a believer to be baptized. There is nothing in the Bible about a "believer's baptism."
"Accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior," or "Ask Jesus into your heart" isn't the biblical answer.
It’s important to be saved from hell, damnation, and the stain of original sin, but what are we saved for? We are saved for union with Christ. Our salvation began when we were born again through baptism and God’s own Divine Life was restored in our souls, making us like Adam and Eve were in the Garden before the Original (first) Sin. As we go through life, we are united with Christ through the Sacraments he left as gifts for us, especially through Penance (forgiveness of our sins committed since Baptism) and the Eucharist (partaking of God’s own Life, His own Divine Nature, 2 Peter 1:4) - until that day when we are truly united with Him in heaven.
Scripture teaches that one’s final salvation depends on the state of the soul at death. As Jesus himself tells us, "He who endures to the end will be saved" (Matt. 24:13; cf. 25:31-46). One who dies in the state of friendship with God (the state of grace) will go to heaven. The one who dies in a state of rebellion against God (the state of mortal sin) will go to hell. (For the teaching on venial (non-deadly) and mortal (deadly) sins, see 1 John 5:16-17)
What I must do to be saved:
*I must be baptized with water and the Spirit. Mark 16:16, John 3:3-5, Titus 3:5, I Peter 3:20-21. (Exceptions: [1] If I desire Baptism but die before I can be baptized with water and the Spirit, God accepts my desire to be baptized, and [2] If I am killed (martyred) because of my faith, but I have not had the opportunity to be baptized, God accepts my death as my baptism, called the Baptism of Blood).
* I must do the will of God the Father. Matthew 7:21
* I must keep the Commandments of God. Matthew 5:19-20, Matthew 7:21, Matthew 19:17, 1 Timothy 6:14, and others.
* I must accept the Cross (suffering). Matthew 10:38, Matthew 16:24-25, Mark 8:34, Luke 9:23, Luke 14:27. Phil 1:29, and others.
* I must be a member of God's true church. Acts 2:46-47.
* I must confess my sins. James 5:16, I John 1:9, John 20:19-23
* I must heed the words of St. Peter, the first Pope. Acts 11:13-14, Acts 15:7.
* I must eat the flesh and drink the blood of Jesus Christ. John 6:51-58, I Corinthians 10:16-17, 11:23-30.
* I must do unto others as I would have them do unto me and love my neighbor as myself. I must feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, clothe the naked, visit the sick and those in prison or give other aid to those in need. Luke 10:33 ff, Mt 25:31-46. "Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are very pleasing to God" Hebrews 13:16. Good works don’t save us, but we will be judged by them.
*I must strive to be holy. "Strive for peace with everyone and for that holiness without which no one will see the Lord." Hebrews 12:14
*I must endure (persevere) to the end. Matthew 10:22, Matthew 24:13, Mark 13:13.
And ... ? What else must I do?
Catechism
#432 The name "Jesus" signifies that the very name of God is present in the person of his Son, made man for the universal and definitive redemption from sins. It is the divine name that alone brings salvation, and henceforth all can invoke his name, for Jesus united himself to all men through his Incarnation, so that "there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
I’m a Catholic who was a Reformed Protestant and would’ve thought I was becoming apostate 4 years ago 😂 One thing that Protestants have that is admirable is a zeal and fervor. It is definitely sad when a Catholic does not understand the faith or devote himself to it (although there are plenty of Protestants in the same exact boat). But that doesn’t invalidate the Church itself.
Protestants assuming that Catholics don’t have the true gospel is largely based on what they’ve heard from Catholics who do not take their faith very seriously.
Dig deep, and find that what the Church has held to for the last 2,000 years has always been the true faith. Here’s quote I never heard as a Protestant, “For my part, I should not believe the gospel except as moved by the authority of the Catholic Church.” - St. Augustine (Against the Fundamental Epistle of Manichaeus)
@@joshstrange1244 I agree both sides lake the knowledge and zeal for sharing the Gospel. :-(

@@BibleAndFriends Great! Thanks for dismissing protestantism for me
More protestants who claim to know the bible yet they reject clear biblical teachings! Because this Catholic man was not certain where purgatory is in the bible does not mean it is not there. The Apocalypse of St. John clearly states of heaven: 21"[27] There shall not enter into it any thing defiled". If you are not perfected and you still have sin, you shall not enter heaven.
"[11] For other foundation no man can lay, but that which is laid; which is Christ Jesus. [12] Now if any man build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble: [13] Every man's work shall be manifest; for the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it shall be revealed in fire; and the fire shall try every man's work, of what sort it is. [14] If any man's work abide, which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. [15] If any man's work burn, he shall suffer loss; but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire." 1st Epistle of St Paul to the Corinthians 3 = PURGATORY.
([12] "Upon this foundation": The foundation is Christ and his doctrine: or the true faith in him, working through charity. The building upon this foundation gold, silver, and precious stones, signifies the more perfect preaching and practice of the gospel; the wood, hay, and stubble, such preaching as that of the Corinthian teachers (who affected the pomp of words and human eloquence) and such practice as is mixed with much imperfection, and many lesser sins. Now the day of the Lord, and his fiery trial, (in the particular judgment immediately after death,) shall make manifest of what sort every man's work has been: of which, during this life, it is hard to make a judgment. For then the fire of God's judgment shall try every man's work. And they, whose works, like wood, hay, and stubble, cannot abide the fire, shall suffer loss; these works being found to be of no value; yet they themselves, having built upon the right foundation, (by living and dying in the true faith and in the state of grace, though with some imperfection,) shall be saved yet so as by fire; being liable to this punishment, by reason of the wood, hay, and stubble, which was mixed with their building.) PURGATORY!
@@Greg-wn2pp Definitely not talking about purgatory, but thanks for your opinion.
@@BibleAndFriends Sorry friend! DEFINITELY talking about purgatory! By the way, on what authority do you say it's not speaking about purgatory? Your own conclusions? Some random pastor who taught you? Are you claiming you know better than the early Church Fathers?
@@BibleAndFriends There are 14 separate verses in the New Testament which affirm the Christian Doctrine of Purgatory....you just don't like those verses.
How did you come to know the Lord? I was converted by a youtube street preacher harassing people. Said noone ever!
Just your opinion. How often do you share the Gospel with people?
The last word's Our Dear Blessed Lord spoke on earth are in Matthew 28 verses 19 and 20.
Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world
Amen!
by the way, you asked for where purgatory in the bible. well if you protestants didn’t remove the deuterocanon and label them as “apocrypha”, you’d know where to find it. no where in the bible does it say when a person should be baptized, yet so many protestant denominations argue with each other about if an infant can be baptized or not.
I hate it when people speak even though they don't know. If you don't know you should ask instead
I agree. It's funny how he says "I don't understand the entire Catholic faith", which I'm assuming means he doesn't know most of what the church teaches, and yet he says "that's not what the Catholic faith teaches". If you are not in a state of deadly sin and you are continuously trying to do God's will, what is there to fear? Great job to the dad for staying cool
John 20:21-23 "Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.’ When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.’
Thanks for sharing.
@@BibleAndFriends No problem, also Matthew 9:2-8 says how God gave the power to MEN on earth to forgive sins. Matthew 9:2-8 "Then behold, they brought to Him a paralytic lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.” And at once some of the scribes said within themselves, “This Man blasphemes!” But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’? But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”-then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” And he arose and departed to his house. Now when the multitudes saw it, they marveled and glorified God, who had given such power to MEN."
SO, if you analyze the doctrine of the CHRIST, the father send him to forgive sins, and God gave that power to men. Jesus then says: "As the father sent me... I also send you.... If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them...."
Catholicism is 100% doctrine of the Christ! Forgiveness of sins on earth is 100% doctrine of the Christ!
Oh yes, and this was AFTER the veil was torn and we have full access to the father.
@@bluecomb5376 Jesus doctrine was very clear on John 13:20 Jesus sends his apostles, his church, those who Jesus himself gave the power to forgive sins on earth. But those who reject them, reject Jesus and the Father who send them! Rejecting the church of Jesus, rejecting those who Jesus sent to forgive sins of any on earth is a huge error that the protestants make. For this reason, the protestant's sins will be retained, because they did not accept those who Jesus sent to forgive the sins of the world, just like the Father send Jesus.
Trying to convert people that already have strong faith in Christ seems pretty pointless to me also you clearly don’t understand what Catholics believe about salvation maybe you should actually understand what the Church teaches sir
Right off the top.. "is that the faith that you want?" And in my journey I've found this to be the big problem with a protestants (not all) they interpret scripture they want their faith to be, they enforce their belief by isolating pockets or single versus of scripture while ignoring the majority of what the word of God teaches

There's always gotta be one of these comments 😂
@@austingill2107 because there’s only one true church that Christ founded. I don’t remember Jesus saying he had multiple brides or multiple bodies? 🤔
I know the Great Schism was a shame, but can we unite against Protestants?
Religion is a virtue. It binds us back to the Father.
There is only ONE Church, one body and one spirit..
Protestants try to stray away from the body of Christ. They make a Church without a head.
We need to study Catholic to defend the CHURCH Christ Established.
Im not catholic nor orthodox yet. I grew up in Pentecostal church my family left when I was about 8 years old. I’m 30 now started reading my Bible and I believe it’s true. So I was curious who put these scriptures together and it turns out it was the One apostolic Catholic Orthodox Church guided through Holy Spirit that canonized the Bible. I immediately humbled myself and realized Catholicism is not what I perceived it to be. So now I’m learning the theology through the lens of catholic/orthodox tradition rather than the Protestant point of view.
Just remember, t's all about Jesus and what He did, not of ourselves.
Jesus Christ gave us a Church, not a book. All Protestant religions are man made. If you want to learn about Jesus’ Church, I invite you to read the Catechism, it’s not very long.
Why?
FRFR. Because he is insecure in his Faith. Thus he has to crush other peoples in order to continue in his sin. This is sinful.
Because we care for people's souls and want to see people saved!
@@BibleAndFriends so Catholics arent saved by your logic

Funny you mention that... I haven't gone to a doctor for probably over 15 years. I do go to Jesus! But, I'm not saying doctors are bad because God will heal people through doctors. I just haven't gone to them in a very long time.

When Jesus said, "It is finished." He had just drank the last cup of the Passover Feast on the cross. Jesus Christ became the Passover Lamb. Jesus Christ is the Eucharist celebrated in the Mass.
The thief that was crucified with Christ did not go to heaven immediately after he died. Jesus didn't go to heaven immediately either. Paradise was where all the Jews/Israelites/God's people went in the OT. Jesus descended after he died to bring the people in Paradise to heaven (or some scholars say preach to them about His salvation and heaven).

"I don't understand Catholicism in all of its fullness". And there is the rub. If you don't understand Catholicism then why would you presume to preach against it? Of all the arrogance to presume to speak against something you clearly know nothing about.
The Catholic Church does not teach that you "do the Sacraments" in order to be saved or maintain your salvation in the way that you insinuate. The Catholic Church teaches that you are saved by the Grace of God through faith, but not an empty faith that isn't void of love for God which obeys Christ.
I encourage you to study Catholic teaching before you presume to preach against it.
You can save your erroneous evangelism explosion for the ignorant and unlearned who don't know better.
Catholics know the gospel. They do not need you approaching them with corrupt teachings invented in the late middle ages.

Luke 24: 44-49 is the last thing Jesus said before he went to heaven. (Not it is finished).
"It is finished" is the last thing He said before he died on the cross. I did mention that when he was dying on the cross that's what he said. I should have been a little more clear since I did mention the last thing he said while on earth. Thanks for chiming in! 🙂
We are not saved by grace alone. James 2:24 man is justified by works and not by faith alone. James 2:26 faith without faith with out works are dead. Mortal sin: 1 John 5 16-17 If anyone sees his brother committing what is not a DEADLY sin, he will ask, and God will give him life for those in sin is not deadly. THERE IS SIN WHICH IS DEADLY: ETC.
We are saved by grace through faith, not of ourselves, it's a gift from God, not by works so no man can boast.
@@BibleAndFriends We agree that we are not saved by works. But faith without works is dead James2:26 Read James 2:24
@5:09 Repentance (metanoia) more than just an acknowledgement that we are sinners.
What do you mean by faith?
What do you mean by trust (aka. hope)?
what do you mean by grace? (more than just an unmerited attitude, correect?) Grace is an ontological reality, a gift that chances us, makes us adopted children of God ( John 3:5)
These are virtues and are more than just intellectual acknowledgements.
Looking for a problem where no problem exists. 😅
When we approach people we have no idea if they're saved or not. I never assume someone's salvation.
