Dr. James White would do better if he devotes more time praying for protestants who want to convert to the Catholic Church. If those protestants are wrong, his prayers would save them. But if they are right, he'd be swimming against the tide.
In answer to James' question; The other day I went to confession, bowed my head, confessed my sins and was forgiven by the grace of God - so I became, by that grace alone, that blessed man. Thank God. Give it a go - it's amazing. Amen.
@@misse8787 Well, you could argue that you don't NEED to go to Church, but no sensible Christian would recommend that - the sacraments are there to bring us close to God. Christ set up the Church to help us with these matters, why would we think we know better than he?
@@dutch1815 What if you sin and you are in a situation where your life in danger, and life could be taken any time and there is no Confessional near, do you have to die in your sins because the Church is not there to "help you with these things"? How exactly are sins forgiven in the new Testament?
All sin is forgiven by God's grace, and we are redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ. If you were at a point of death, sacramental confession would not be a "requirement" (the Church talks about making an act of 'perfect contrition' - an example of this would be the thief on the cross next to Jesus; who interestingly makes the nearest thing to a sacramental confession I've ever heard described!). Confession is however the normal means provided by the Church to reconcile (it's actually more accurately called "reconciliation") sinners to God, and you're better off using the normal means normally! (If the fire alarm goes off, you could wait until firemen in breathing apparatus chop the door down to rescue you, but it would be far wiser I stead to head for the fire exit!!)
@@dutch1815 So it was the Church that invented the confessionals as the means for the sins of the people to be forgiven? If I understood you correctly, one does not necessarily need the sacrament but can go straight to God, why was then the Church obliged to put up unnecessary sacrament?
@@Forsthman64 sure! When she says “my soul magnifies the Lord,” she’s not saying that “through my greatness I make much of God.” That would be like a microscope: making something small appear to be big through a microscope. That’s one kind of magnification. What Mary is saying is that she is magnifying the Lord as a telescope magnifies a star. She points to God’s goodness and mercy and glory, even though she is humble and weak and in need of a Savior. That is magnifying like a telescope: making God appear more like how He truly is! Our great God and Savior. That’s what I meant.
@@standingbeforegod OK. Understand now. Catholics agree with pretty much everything you said, (I'm assuming you're not Catholic) except, I think, the part about needed a saviour, because we believe in immaculate conception, so Mary was born without original sin. She'd still need Christ if she sinned throughout her life, though.
@@BlairGordon-g8c because you do. Your Popes (who you claim to be holding the office of THE Apostle Peter, brutally tortured and killed Christians and Jews. Mechanically tell yourself that over and over. Repent and leave the "roman collegium of pontiffs".
The English word "BELIEVE" is a verb (not a noun) used in the context of the passage (ref. John 3:16) that means there is WORK/ACT/DEED to be done to be SAVED... NOT just FAITH (noun) ALONE... unless you are dying on your bed or at the cross like the thief...
Christ said, "COME (verb/work), PICK UP/CARRY (verb/work) your CROSS (noun/Task), and FOLLOW (verb/work) ME (Christ Jesus)." (ref. Matt. 16:24-26)... there is work to be done. Apostle Paul claimed that the "WORKS OF THE LAW" (Moses/Mosaic) that we can boast of is the one NOT needed/required (apart) to have FAITH in Christ Jesus through God's GRACE... (ref. Romans 3:27-28) ... WHY?... because the written WORKS OF THE LAW, kills/destroy... (ref. 2 Corin. 3:6)... However, the "WORKS of LOVE" taught by Christ Jesus to His Apostles is NEEDED/REQUIRED to bear fruits... "LOVE (verb/work) God above all, and LOVE (verb/work) your Neighbor." (ref. Mark 12:30-31). Christ Jesus reminded us all that... SALVATION is a PROCESS... "Anyone who ENDURES (verb/work) to the END, will be SAVED (Future Perfect Tense)." ...(ref. Matt. 24:13). Facts and Truth of the Matter, Biblically and Logically speaking... Praise be to God in Christ Jesus... Amen.
Faith is not a work. If it were, the distinction that both Paul and James make between faith and works would be nonsensical. We do not believe in order to be saved (as if salvation would be some kind of reward for faith). Even our faith is part of the salvific work of God.

@@thepalegalilean Antichrist is: 1). The "little horn" of Dan. 7; 2). The "man of sin, son of perdition" of 2 Thes. 2; 3). The "sea beast" of Rev. 13:1-10; and 4). The "scarlet harlot" of Rev. 17. All these texts are describing the same entity. The "little horn" would continue for 'a time, times, and half a time' (1,260 literal YEARS: day=year principle of Bible prophecy); and the "sea beast" would continue for "42 months" (1,260 literal YEARS: day=year principle in Bible prophecy). This 1,260 years would not begin until after the Fall of the Roman Empire in 476 AD. The "apostasy" of 2 Thes. 2, was an apostasy of the professing Christian Church; Islam cannot apostatize because it was never professing Christianity; religious Judaism cannot apostatize because it was never professing Christianity; only professing Christianity can "apostatize". 2 Thes. 2, dear friend: read it! study it!

@@legendman97 No, popery is the one which embraces "another Jesus and another gospel" per 2 Cor 11:4, which saves no one. Boniface VIII blabbered that it was "altogether necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff" (in his soul-damning, "Unam Sanctam"). You are refuted. Jesus Christ did not come into this world to make salvation contingent on papal subordination, or baptism (CCC 1257), or good works done in God's grace (CCC 1821), let alone keeping the 10 commandments or hell awaits (CCC 1129). You either trust in the exclusive merits of Christ alone or all hope is lost. Good day.
@ you clearly need to keep the commandments otherwise you have no faith in Christ, you also need to submit to the Pope since Christ instituted the office of Vicar, denying him is denying the command of Christ. “Baptism now saves you” 1 Peter 3:21 Your religion is a man made protest developed over the last 500 years against the Catholic Church established by Christ 2000 years ago.
@@legendman97 WOW! The depth of ignorance is simply breathtaking! The only "vicar" of Christ on Earth is the Holy Spirit whom Christ said he would send in his absence, period, case closed. There is not one blessed word about a Pope or his infallibility ANYWHERE in the Text, let alone that of a sacerdotal priesthood. Papal subordination as a requirement for salvation is simply insane, as is the Pope's demand to keep the 10 commandments perfectly, which, by the way, no one has done since time began! Suffice to say, the law of Moses was explicitly REMOVED as a requirement as stated in Acts 13:39. Yikes! Looks like your Bible (if you even have one) has been sitting on the shelf collecting dust. Finally, you TOTALLY misunderstand "baptism now saves you", but not surprising, since Catholics are always looking to trust in Christ PLUS something else to get into heaven. See the following your baptism theory falling over like a house of cards.... www.gotquestions.org/baptism-1Peter-3-21.html
I am sure Candace is well informed, not only on Catholicism but also on what Calvinism teaches, so she must know very well what she is doing. Anyway, what does James White care about? Doesn't he believe we are all predestined? (btw, I am not Catholic).
God's people are in all the denominations within Christendom. They are living within the light they have and understand. When a believer is given additional light it's best embrace the light. Sometimes that requires trying to make changes within the church. Other times it requires the enlightened believer to move on to another church or denomination. Martin Luther tried to bring about change, but it wasn't received by the leadership. In fact the RCC threatened him with death.
James white is a Calvinist? LOL! Alright im not taking that guy seriously anymore. Calvinism is a lie from the pit of hell. John Calvin is a dog who is burning in the lake of fire alongside Muhammad and Joseph Smith
Welcome home Candace! Next, Rusell Brand! Too bad Mr. White is too proud to see truth. He could be next. I kind of feel sad for his soul though. I'll offer up a Rosary for White.

@@bobizzle1605 The Catholic Church says: " . . . when she [Mary] is the subject of preaching and *WORSHIP* she prompts the faithful to come to her Son . . . " (Vatican Council II, p. 420) That's who!
@@vincelomonaco5434 Nice try, the official version on the vatican website says "venerated". The original Latin word is colo which can mean to worship, honor, revere, reverence as well as to cultivate, inhabit or frequent. That's a wide spectrum of meaning. Fortunately, the Church elsewhere and often has already precisely distinguished what and to whom the different types of "worship" are given. Latria is divine worship given only to God, dulia is veneration of the saints, hyperdulia is what is given to Mary, the same as dulia just more so.
@@BlairGordon-g8c You wrote: "Latria is divine worship given only to God, dulia is veneration of the saints, hyperdulia is what is given to Mary, the same as dulia just more so." According to the Catholic Church, Mary "crushes" Satan in Genesis 3:15: "I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: *she shall crush thy head,* and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel." (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible) Now look at Romans 16:20: *"The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you."* (Same Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible) *"The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work."* 1 John 3:8 *"Since the children have flesh and blood, He too shared in their humanity so that by his death He might break the power of him who holds the power of death-that is, the devil-"* Hebrews 2:14 So according to the Catholic Church, who actually crushes Satan: God/Jesus or Mary?? Oh....and by the way, there is no mention of Mary, nor is she anywhere to be found in Revelation 20 when Satan is finally cast into the lake of burning sulfur...just saying! I don't believe God Almighty needs Mary's assistance in crushing Satan!!
It's not a repetitive sacrifice. Its ONE sacrifice. The beauty of the Mass is we step into Calvary with Jesus and enter into the ONE sacrifice of Jesus.
😱 Of course it’s a repetitive sacrifice. You’re in denial. Or self deceived. Or confused of what Rome teaches. Jesus is blasphemously LITERALLY sacrificed every single Mass! 🤦♂️
@@williamstdog9 No, He is not. His sacrifice is beyond time, He is "the lamb who was slaughtered before the creation of the world" (Revelation 13:8).

Before His crucifixion, Jesus said, "There is your Mother." Mary is the Mother of God and the Church. Catholics believe Christ is with us in the Eucharist. These are gifts and truth.
John 19:26- Why don’t you quote the verse properly instead of slanting the meaning to your apostate’s church’s self created Mary? John 19:26 Then seeing His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, Jesus said to His mother, Woman, behold your son! He addressed Mary as “ Woman” He never addressed her as Mother. He never once in the Bible directly addressed her as “mother” He addressed her always as “ Woman” It would have been really sacrilegious for Jesus to address her as mother of God It sounds very degrading to God through Jesus Christ Isaiah 43:7 everyone who is called by My name, and I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him. Your Eucharist is blasphemous Jesus never meant for His once and for all time sacrifice to be changed into something that never fully satisfies.

The Catholic Church have many scapegoats and mechanisms to avoid the authority of God, leaning on man’s instead. It’s idolatrous, blasphemous, and Pagan at its core. Roman Catholics have as much as a connection to Christ as the Mormons do.
The problem for the RCC was always that the gospel doesn't leave any room for Rome to use it as a tool of power for itself, or a means of extracting wealth from the people. The gospel doesn't let you tie up heavy burdens upon people's shoulders, or devour widows' houses. So Rome had to change the gospel. That's why the laity had to be forbidden from reading it. Here's what's so amazing about God's word though. It has transcended all of that. Despite every human effort in corruption and deception over the centuries, God has sustained and preserved His revelation to us. That's such an incredible miracle when you realize how it was just woven through and across our entire history, completely unscathed.

Christian: "I am saved because of what Christ has done. Thank you Jesus!"

Lord Jesus have mercy on them. Show them the free gift of salvation in Christ! I love my Catholic family members but I fear for their souls.
It is great that you love your family members and are concerned about their salvation. Disagreements between denominations can get heated. I hope you pray for them daily and that they do the same for you. I am not sure what sect of Christianity you are attached to, but it is generally held that Baptism is a necessity to be born again and become elect in Christ. The Catholic Church acknowledges the baptism of many other Christian sects. I believe your characterization of the church gate keeping the sacraments is unfair. The Catholic Church is the only place that offers confession so there isn't another options. I personally have found confession to be a great boon in my fight against temptation and sin. I go to confession in part because I fear the loss of heaven, but more importantly I realize that through my sin I have hurt my relationship with Christ. He is pouring out his grace on me but if I have turned away from him and am not cooperating with his will then It is all for not. Reconciliation gives people a way to confess their sins to another individual whose vocational purpose is pastoral care and healing. I hope that any tension between you and your Catholic family members will find resolution. "As you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified in truth. I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I am in you, may they also be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me." John 17: 18-21
@@AdroitAntics Dear friend, you do not need to fear the loss of heaven. The thief on the cross was not baptized and he was promised paradise. In John 6:29 Jesus says the work of God is to Believe on him whom he sent. If you will simply repent of your sins and trust in the finished work of Christ on the cross you will have a salvation that will never go away. John 10:27-28. His sheep will NEVER perish. Thank you for your kind response and may Christ show you his unbreakable love. Romans 3:21-25. Have faith in Christ. He is more than enough. I am a reformed Baptist. May God bless you!
@@loganhowlett3024 I do believe that it is possible to lose salvation if you refuse Gods loving will and grace. This is not to say that God is spiteful in his judgement as he wishes for all to be saved. Jesus in his parables (the Sower, the Watchful Servants, and the Ten Virgins) is clear that someone can be a Professing Christian and yet lose salvation. I get your point that the good thief might not have been baptized. If someone dies with a desire/intention to be baptized they can receive the grace of baptism without the sacramentals and ritual. However, just because it is possible, does not mean it is advisable. We both agree that every single person should be baptized and practice their faith.
@@AdroitAntics My friend Iknow you believe one can lose their salvation. I am familiar with Catholic doctrine. Jesus disagrees with you. His sheep will never perish and no one snatches them from his hand John 10:28. In Roman's 8:28-30 it says those whom he called he justified and glorified. A professing Christian who is not born again has no salvation to lose. Jesus says no one can lose their salvation as does Paul. A simple question to ponder. Is your salvation an act of God or of yourself? Galatians 3:1-9 and Galatians 5:4. If Christ's sacrifice on the cross is not enough nothing you or I can ever do will be enough. It is Finished. Believe the Gospel. I was baptized and follow Jesus out of love and a desire to obey. I have the righteousness of Christ 2nd Corinthians 5:21. I earn nothing it is all of Christ. To him be all the Glory. The Lord be with you.

This is great! I agree 100% with some (many) Catholics are intimidated because they don’t have confidence. We don’t have confidence because we don’t have competence. We MUST learn oyr scriptures. The early church fathers have already given us the doctrines and dogmas of the church. It’s a matter of mining the bible finding treasures of our faith that support EVERY teaching. We have ONE belief, not tens of thousands like the Protestants do. This man demands HIS interpretation is infallible? By whose authority? Another protestant, I’d ask the same. And the other thousands upon thousands of other protestants will answer the same yet they all disagree with each other. Sola scriptura is self-refuting. The magisterium, which Jesus established by replacing Moses’ seat AND the High Priest and the Sanhedrin council with Seat of Peter and the succession of Bishops in the Magesterium
@@ShepherdMinistry Yes LOOONG teaching. Mayne too long here for you to read. I have found when I post long responses, even w/ scriptural backup, sola scriptura no longer applies because of the prejudice of Catholics AND they never read it. IF you are open to understanding this teaching, let me know and I’ll take the time to show it in the scriptures. If you are prejudice of Catholics will be barrier, then it will matter nothing of what I write. In Love, Allan
@@ShepherdMinistry Probably for brevity, it’s not all the references - which ones are not supported and we can probe for understanding. (not interested in a disrespectful fight, OR lengthy per se) - “VERSE VERSUS VERSE” Typical protestant back and forth trying to prove whose right. Been there done that and took me 9 years where Holy Spirit led me to truth. You prolly won’t agree anyway BUT it will start you down a road if you are sincere in simply understanding. Then, Holy Spirit will do the rest in your life.
Many came against Christ during His public ministry. Thank you James for continually standing for truth. I thank men like you that God has raised up in the church 🙏🏽
The Gospel of Jesus is God’s promise to save His people conditioned on the atoning shed blood of Jesus Christ and His imputed righteousness alone All that the Father gives to Jesus will come to Jesus and all that come to Jesus He will not cast away because He has come down out of heaven to do the will of the Father and The will of the father is that all that He gives to Jesus will be raised up by Jesus in the last day and be saved and Jesus won’t lose one of them.
You became Catholic because you actually know and understand the Gospels - not like these twisted satanist who call themselves "Christians". Much like satan; they rattle off carefully picked scripture, chapter and verse - because the prince of lies knows the Holy Bible better than any human. Satan truly believes in the Lord God; but like these heretics; he is disobedient. Satan has abandoned Christ; just as the followers of man-made religions have abandoned Christ- John 6:66. Praise be Our Lord and the Holy Ghost whom brought you back into the Light, my brother. You stand with the Master of the Universe and the People of God; they stand in the darkness. We will pray that they also see the Light; and not led astray by egotistical men with forked tongues who only exist to scatter the People of God. May God bless us; Praise be Our Lord.
@DoubleAJ-cl5qq Your man-made " accept Jesus Christ as Lord and sin boldly " doctrine by the inventor of your man-made church stinks of pure evil; and is obviously contradictory of the Gospels and all of Christianity as the Apostles tought. Repent for blaspheme Our Lord to millions of people online and attempting to scatter the Lords flock - the People of God. To be gracious; it is likely your ignorance that has led you to offend God. You adore and idolize charismatic men whom with zero authority; lay-men; spread their demonic interpretations of scripture to helpless sheep. Repent, and there may still be time.
The Fear of the Lord is the Beginning of Wisdom. With now over 40,000 Protestant Denominations and counting, with James' church being one of them, it's not even a thought to consider Protestantism. Sadly, Protestantism is a Protest within itself...Protesting each other & not Uniting. Father may they all be ONE! Welcome Home Candace!!!
My friend James I have learned so much from you about to stay away from the catholic church and its teachings and the penalty imposed when someone turns away from catholic faith, like you have said in your debates: under the pain of the Anathema if someone walks away from the catholic faith. Christ is your savior so he is mine our hope is HE through the gospel. Amen
@@margaritoceja the term “ his church” are just words with no power. On the year 1054 the great schism, who seperated from who? The Roman Catholics or the Greek Orthodox Catholics? Who was here first? The Roman catholics or the Greek othodox catholics? If there is one true church it should be the Greek Orthodox Catholics not the Roman Carholic Church, Stands to reason! The Roman Catholic church its just a by-product of that seperation, the true Catholics should be if there is one supposed true church the Greek Orthodox. But we kow they are similar to Roman Catolics they both have idollatry in it worshipping Mary and dead saints.
@roneygarcia8743 Jesus and the saints. Aren't we all children of God and his mother. Aren't we united in the Father. Aren't we united in the mother. Haven't the bishop and the patriarch reconciled a long time ago. Who is called the deciever. From the beginning until now, who has put-up flesh, sweat, blood and tears to preserve the bible for another 1308 years. Who has historically fought sword against sword and won with the help of God, Mary and angels. Every time we discredit the church, it draws us back closer to the seventh century, not just the eleventh. Be happy chastity is still highly praised in our western society and not 7th century pedophilia, incest is not the daily norm and intersaguinius marriage is not acceptable. Who is still swoing the blood of the martyrs; St. Maximilian Kolbe joyfully offered his life in a natzi prison, in the twentyth century.
The more I listen to James, the more i appreciate being one with the Catholic Church. Dude has completely lost it and you see it in his recent debates with members of Christ's Catholic Church in his aggressive, gish galloping way. Rude, snarky and arrogance are definitely a turn off. Welcome home Candace Owens!!
1) Not everything written by every "doctor" of the Church must be orthodox. Doctors of the Church have helped clarify and develop various teachings. Development does not mean something new but simply explicitly stating what has always been implicit. 2) Protestants think that "devotional" writings are meant to convey orthodox teachings. 3) Asking Mary to pray for us is not any form of worship. Protestants don't have a clue what true worship is... namely offering sacrifices… Everything Catholics (and Eastern Orthodox Christians) believe about Mary stems from one basic, historical fact that has profound implications... Mary, a simple, humble creature of God, bore “God Incarnate” in her womb. We honor (never worship) Mary because it was through her act of surrender (“be it unto me according to thy word Luke 1:38) that the means of our salvation, Jesus Christ, entered the world. God could have entered the world through a sinful woman but chose not to because God determined it was fitting to enter though a Holy Vessel as a means of the incarnation. Some Protestants complain that this violates the Biblical concept that “all have sinned” (2 Chronicles 6:36, Romans 3:28, 1 John 1:8). However, Jesus, was a man and did not sin therefore these passages cannot be taken to be understood in an “absolute” sense, but rather a “general” sense. Paul and the author of Hebrews (Hebrews 4:15 and 2 Cor 5:21) could also have stated that “Mary” was like us in all ways, except she did not sin. However, the implication of this is completely different. Jesus was without sin because of His divinity. Mary was without sin because of God’s grace operating in her. We know God’s grace was operating in her based on Luke 1:26-30 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. And he came to her and said, "Hail, O favored one, the Lord is with you!" But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. And the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. “O favored one” is one word in Greek, Kecharitōmenē. This word is only used one time in scripture. Also, the greeting “Hail” (“kai”) is normally reserved for royalty. More on that later. Notice Mary’s response to this greeting: “But she was greatly troubled at the saying and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be”. This word, Kecharitōmenē could be translated as “one who has been perfected in grace” or “full of grace” as Jerome translated it. We honor her because she, being made “full of grace”, is a sign of what God wants to do for us. She is our ultimate role model as a human saint. When we get to heaven, all of us will be “full of grace”. Mary’s holiness was, in a sense, God’s preparation for her to become the holy vessel of the incarnation. Luke 1:38 And Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her. What I discovered is that through her “fiat” (saying Yes to God), Mary played a unique role in salvation history by bringing Jesus to us two thousand years ago. This is another reason why we give her honor. She demonstrates to us what it means to be a disciple of Christ by her absolute surrender to God’s will and its implications for our salvation. Luke 1:41-43 And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and she exclaimed with a loud cry, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? Clearly, Elizabeth is giving honor to Mary when she proclaimed, “And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me”. If it was appropriate for Elizabeth to honor Mary, why would it be inappropriate for me to honor Mary today? We honor Mary because her soul magnifies the Lord. Luke 1:44-46 And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden. For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.” Catholics and Eastern Orthodox have always honored Mary by calling her “blessed”. Unfortunately, Protestants have chosen to completely ignore Luke 1:44-46. Because Mary’s womb was set apart for this sacred use, much like the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy of Holies in the Old Testament, she was never had another children. If she had other children Jesus would not have given her to John at the foot of the cross. As far as the brothers of Christ are concerned, it should be noted that there is no verse in scripture that states any of them are the biological children of either Mary. It should be noted that the word for “brother” in Greek isn’t always limited to one’s biological brother. There are passages that this word may point to “kinfolk” like cousins or even uncles or simply spiritual “brothers”. Let’s start with James, the first bishop of Jerusalem (Acts 12:17, 15:13, 21:18; Galatians 1:19; 2:9-12) and the author of the epistle of James. Paul mentions that when he met with the Apostles, he includes James, the “brother of Jesus” in his partial list of the 12 disciples that he met with. However, we know from the gospels that the 2 apostles named James were stated as sons of men other than Joseph, Zebedee and Alpheus (Matt 10:2-3; Mark 3:18). Likewise, two of the brothers of Jesus, James, and Joseph (Mt 13:55) are mentioned again together at the foot of the cross in Matthew 27:56 as being the sons of “another Mary” not Mary, mother of Jesus. I highly recommend Brant Pitre’s Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary treatment of this subject. He makes a very convincing case from scripture alone that none of the supposed “brothers” of Christ are not biological brothers through Mary but rather, they are cousins of Jesus. Another valid possibility is that the Joseph may have been a widower when he married Mary and the “brothers” of Jesus may have been existing children from Joseph’s first marriage. The Church allows both as valid opinions. If Mary was this Holy then her assumption is reasonable, just like Enoch (Gen 5:24 Heb 11:5) and Elijah (2 Kin ch 2). James White has never satisfactorily addressed the questions that led me to the Catholic faith at age 46: 1) If "Sola Scriptura" was God's plan why has it produced so many contradictory doctrines including how we are saved? 2) How was "Sola Scriptura" God's plan when in the first 12 years the only scripture available to Christians was the Old Testament and even then, the Old Testament canon was not settled. 3) Most of the references to the authority of scripture in the New Testament point to the Old Testament. If those passages were teaching Sola Scriptura than they would be saying that the Old Testament is sufficient. Instead, why does the New Testament clearly point to the authority of the Apostolic Church and of Apostolic Tradition, not scripture alone? 4) Based on the texts of first and second century Christians (or the Apostolic Fathers... Ignatius of Antioch, Clement of Rome, Polycarp, Justin Martyr, the Didache, Irenaeus of Lyon, etc.) how do we explain the overwhelming historical evidence that Protestants have not done a good job preserving the Apostolic Tradition and rejecting doctrines like Apostolic Succession? 5) It was the Catholic Church that established the 27 book New Testament Canon that Protestants accept. How can a fallible Church define an infallible Canon? 6) The Catholic Church teaches we are saved by God's grace alone. We are restored by faith and baptism. In our baptism, we provide the faith and God provides the saving grace. After baptism, we allow God to change us from the inside out (sanctifying grace) and to work through us to prepare us for our final judgement. Prayer and the sacraments are the principal means of receiving sanctifying grace. How can I say that the Catholic Church teaches a "different gospel" when the Catholic view of salvation is far more Biblical than any Protestant view?
If you're referring to Ligouri, and his book, it has been approved and renewed by the current pope in every reprinting since the first in 1750. It is the accepted teaching of the papist church by definition. Every pope. Not just one pope.
@@blchamblisscscp8476 You seem like a reasonable person and have done your homework. You might be the perfect person for a project that I am working on. I would like to start a long form discussion video podcast (think Joe Rogan) with an evangelical and/or Protestant to discuss the issues that divide Catholics and non-Catholics. I don't care for formal debates. I want to have both sides have enough time to present evidence that is relevant to the topic at hand. It would require multiple podcasts to cover topics like authority, justification, Mary, communion of the saints, purgatory and indulgences etc. What do you think about my idea?

@@susanburrows810 Wait which Bible? Who was king James and was he a sinful man? This is when you say you don’t read the KJV. You need to study hyperbole.
When will people understand that Jesus tells you if you do repent of your sins and show mercy and forgive others and become born from above that these are the requirements that you do and have faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and confess him to the world is what The Father God in heaven who Jesus prayed to requires of to everyone. Catholicism has traditional stuff that is controversial just as every other Christian denomination has. Works through Faith in Christ can be good if you are doing it for good moral reasons. A relationship in Christ in is just as important.
Well, that is the Biblical TRUTH taught by Christ Jesus through His Apostles in the 1st Cent. A.D., before the Individual Written Scriptures (Word of God) were completed around 110 A.D.... The 7 CHURCHES of God through Christ Jesus in Asia Minor started around 30-33 A.D. during Pentecost Day "WITHOUT" the COMPLETE Manuscripts/Written Epistles/Letters, Gospels, Acts of the Apostles, and Revelation, just the ORAL/SPOKEN Traditions of the Apostles for about 40 to 70 years... the Gospels were written only after the 2nd Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Roman Empire around 70 A.D. Where were the PROTESTANISM and EVANGELICALS at that time the CHURCH of God in Christ had begun?... nowhere to be found, they only started in the 15th Cent. A.D., as the PRODIGAL SONS of the R.C.C. ... Are the Protestants/Evangelicals better than the CHURCH FOREFATHERS in terms of Interpreting the Scriptures?... NOPE... Apostle John revealed to us that there were OTHER THINGS that Christ Jesus had done that were not written down (ref. John 21:25) but were witnessed by many in the 1st Cent. A.D.... some of which became the ORA/SPOKEN TRADITION of the Early 7 CHURCHES in Asia Minor that up to now had been practiced by Christians under the LEADERSHIP of Apostle Peter the 1st Overseer/Episcopal/Bishop of God's Church in Christ of the 1st Cent. A.D. with the KEYS of Authority to "BIND and LOSE" on Earth as in Heaven given by God through Christ Jesus... The APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION of the Churches was continued (carried on) by the Greek and Roman Catholic (Universal) Church (R.C.C.) in the 4th Cent. A.D. up to this day... Facts and Truth of the Matters, Biblically and Historically speaking... Praise be to God in Christ Jesus...

Many of Rome’s false doctrines stem from their false gospel. Mass, penance, purgatory, etc all stem from their false gospel that doesn’t save and doesn’t bring peace with God. All the extras are needed to fill the holes and gaps in their soteriology, if you can even call it that. Instead of the true gospel that unites us to Christ through Faith and the result is salvation and the sanctification that results in a changed life. With Rome you get an endless cycle of penance and fear and anxiety and a system that gives Rome power and their people terror and anxiety. Rome abandoned the scripture and the faith of the early church long ago. Any honest review of history will clearly show that Rome today is nowhere near what the early church believed. It has been hundreds of years of slow accretions and inventions of men from pagan, mystic and gnostic sources. The Reformation, praise God, was a return to the church that Christ and the Apostles handed the church fathers. It was a return to scripture as the highest authority that all other authorities must be judged against. Other authorities are useful and edifying, but once you elevate some other authority to the level of scripture, you are bound to end up in endless ditches like Rome has found itself countless times.
When are Catholics going to realize ? Isaiah 43:7 everyone who is called by My name, and I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him. Grace means non meritorious undeserved favor “Full” of Grace isn’t in the text Grace is not a substance Luke 1:28 And entering, the angel said to her, Hail ( Greetings), one having received grace (undeserved favor)! The Lord is with you. You are blessed (gifted)among women! Receiving grace is receiving undeserved favor Blessed means gifted among women not above women Please wake up God is the creator and the savior through Jesus Christ Jesus always addressed her “ Woman” not mother even once to let you know but you trusted the church that does not glorify God through Jesus Christ the only mediator 14:30

The sad part is Mr. White constantly uses the same arguments over and over again, even though they are sufficiently answered by Catholic apologists. Which can't be said for arguments against his own tradition.... Look at the Early Church and there you will find the Catholic Church. Nothing remotely resembles the Protestant Church (start with the first 3 centuries). For example, if you were to walk into a Early Church would you see a pulpit at the forefront center of the church or would you see an altar? Did Church revolve around the sermon or did it revolve around worshiping Jesus in the Eucharist? The burden of proof would be on Protestants to prove otherwise.
@@standingbeforegod Sure have... I just watched him debate Jimmy Akins... The consensus in the comment section was that Mr. Akins won the debate hands down. Many Protestants who commented also concurred that Jimmy won. Jimmy did a great job explaining how there are a plethora quotes from Protestant leaders (ie:Martin Luther, etc.) who would be in agreement with Catholic doctrinal teachings. Unfortunately, as we know, there is no unity within the Protestant faith on many essential doctrines... Jesus prays for all believers that we should be one (Jn: 17: 20-23). Which is why I ask anyone who wants to faithfully follow Jesus to look at the Early Church and ask yourself is it Protestant or Catholic?... God Bless you!
@@brianh2477 The reason the arguments don't change is that truth doesn't change. Rome's arguments change all the time because they have dramatically changed just in the last 150 years. Pope Francis would have been burnt on the stake 500 years ago. The "consensus" in the comments isn't really a consensus. The comments are always filled with coping youtube Catholics and orthobros, that's just youtube religious culture. I'm in a high church presbyterian reformed congregation and we have droves of dedicated conservative roman Catholics joining our church ALL the time. They are usually in the majority of new members. Rome cannot give you peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Akins didn't win that debate, he never mention the entire hamster wheel Rome forces you to be on in order to be saved. There is no peace. In the final analysis, salvation lies with you. God did all he could but you failed. That is not good news at all. It's depressing. By the way, the early church fathers were not Roman Catholic, nor Eastern Orthodox, nor Protestant. They were just the early church Fathers. Read Calvin's institutes. The entire book is arguing against Rome to bring the church BACK to the early church as understood by the Fathers. Rome is far from that.
@unhitched5108 Steve, All I asked is what would you see if you walked in a Early Christian Church at the center forefront... I have proof of what you would see if you'd like me to elaborate. And it wouldn't look or teach anything like what you would hear or see in Protestant Churches. Moreover, the Word of God is both Scripture and Oral Tradition which is btw IN SCRIPTURE. Paul says that much Christian teaching is to be found in the tradition which is handed down by word of mouth (2 Tim. 2:2). He instructs us to “stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter” (2 Thess. 2:15). So, you are correct in saying it is a appeal to tradition because to put it simply, IT MATTERS.
It's funny how the Ethiopian and Indian churches, which go back to apostolic times and are independent of the Catholic church also agree with the Catholic church about the Eucharist, Mary and the saints.

Apostle James teaches "PERFECT JUSTIFICATION" by FAITH and (good/charity of love) WORKS.... If Christians are truly justified by FAITH Alone, why do we need to go through the PURIFICATION OF FAITH through FIRE?... Why do we need to ENDURE until the End of our Life on Earth to be SAVED? St. Paul did not teach Justification by FAITH ALONE... if he does, he has contradicted what he teaches orally/verbally to what he does physically... Amen.
True Christians are justified before others by our works to show our faith...NOT SAVED by our works...huge difference there. Read and study the whole Book of James and notice he is addressing believers already saved by faith alone, hence how he starts Chapter 2:1: *"My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ* you must not show favoritism." James 2:1 James is teaching how they should conduct themselves as Christians. True Christians are saved by grace, through faith alone. Only the shed blood of Jesus purifies believers from ALL sin: "The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. *After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven."* Hebrews 1:3 Imputed Righteousness: "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, *and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.* If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. *If we confess our sins (To God), He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."* 1 John 1:7-9 *"For God made him who had no sin to be sin offering for us, so that in him we may become the righteousness of God."* 2 Corinthians 5:21

Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone." Romans 9:30-32 Can the apostle Paul contradict himself? *"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."* Ephesians 2:8-10 "and be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ-the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith." Philippians 3:9 *"He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit,"* Titus 3:5 So tell me, what works did Saul/Paul perform, besides persecuting and having Christians murdered, before his conversion by the Lord on his way to Damascus? The apostle Paul was saved by grace, though faith alone.

words alone can never be worship. That's just praise. Unless someone is offering the sacrifice of the Mass TO MARY instead of to the Father, then no one is worshipping her
@@Justin-lk2gt huh? Cain and Abel worshiping God by sacrificing crops and livestock? All of the Mosaic law in Exodus and Leviticus which explain all the sacrifices necessary to cleanse sin and worship God? Singing a song to God and saying you Love him is not worship. That's praise. Protestants don't worship God, and they never have. They just praise Him. Which is why protestantism is so theologically empty
75 years prior to Constantine, when Christians were still persecuted by the Romans (also prior to the canon of the Christian Bible/NT being established): "Peter answered Him, 'Lord, to whom will we go?'... Peter, on whom the Church was to be built...taught and showed in the name of the Church that a rebellious and arrogant multitude may depart from the Church. I speak of those who will not hear and obey. However, the Church does not depart from Christ. And the Church consists of those who are a people united to the priest. It is the flock that adhere to its pastor. Therefore, you should know that the bishop is in the Church and the Church is in the bishop. If anyone is not with the bishop, he is not in the Church.... The Church is Catholic and is one. It is not cut or divided. Rather it is connected and bound together by the cement of priests who cohere with one another." St. Cyprian of Carthage, "The Unity of the Catholic Church," c. 250 A.D.
The Roman Catholic Church is not the Church of Christ, but has always been Rome. Rome persecuted true Christian’s and then the RCC persecuted true Christians. Burning people alive for translating, owning, or reading, the exact Bible you read today.
Isn’t the title “Queen of Heaven“ one of the nicknames for Mary in the Roman church? Wonder how many Roman Catholics are aware that title is used in Jeremiah chapters 7 and 44 about a goddess that was worshiped in ancient Israel as that practice is nothing new and their names were at various times Isis, Asherah and Astarte. And then you have Semiramis.
@@TriciaPerry-mz7tc You missed the point. Jesus was the heir to the throne of David. “King of the Jews” was not just a symbolic or mocking title given to Jesus-By prophecy as the Messiah, Jesus was and is literally the King of Israel. This is why Herod felt threatened by the Messiah. Jesus never took that throne, because his mission was far more important: to lead mankind to the eternal Kingdom of Heaven as the Word of God made flesh incarnate. But if Jesus had become the actual King of Israel, Mary would have been the Queen. Instead, Jesus takes his place as King of Heaven in glory with the Father and Holy Spirit. And as the first Christian, the daughter of the Father, Mother of the Son and spouse of the Holy Spirit, Mary becomes an honorary Queen.
Jesus said in John 14:6, "I an the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father EXCEPT through Me." I Tim. 2: 5 says, There is one God & ONE Mediator between God & men, the Man Christ Jesus." Heb. 7:25 "He (Jesus) is able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He lives to make intercession for them." Catholics don't read the Bible, so they are blind to the truth.
We love you james my brother ❤. And when you do finally decide to come back home that feast that god has prepared for you is going to be one that we will all celebrate with you 😊.

Legalism. I think Jerammie.Beltran just wants everyone to know he would welcome James White to his own congregation. I would imagine he doesn't want to get in touch with him, not more than I would. Simple text on TH-cam comments can easily be misinterpreted by readers or many readers, many of which equals many interpretations. Every writing can only be interpreted correctly by the authir. That's why we need a magistrate or a majisterium, for law of the land and cannon law, respectively.
Why would he "come home to Rome," when the Scriptures clearly command us, saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you take part in her sins, lest you share in her plagues; 5 for her sins are heaped high as heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities." [Rev. 18:4-5, ESV]. Christians are commanded, explicitly, to "come OUT OF HER, my people". Why would Christians "come home to Roman Papalism"? Why would we "fornicate" with the "Mother of harlots"? [cf. Rev. 17]. If you're a Trinitarian Christian, then you are commanded to come out of her as well. *Soli Deo Gloria*
@@ryangallmeier6647When and whom came up with such hate for the church Jesus Christ founded? Martin Luther, maybe not; maybe it started with the fall of man. What is most reasonable?
If you are Catholic please read Galatians 1:6-9 and ponder it’s warning to those who preach a gospel other than that preaches one is saved by faith in Christ alone,by Christ alone,and once for all time. If you still are Catholic after reading it you have punched your ticket for hell. Please repent!
That is actually talking about the 30K+ protestant churches who left the one true faith established by Christ (Matt 16:18) And the 30K+ denominations all have a different doctrine - these are the fruits of M. Luther in only past 500 years. Catholic church teaching is same ONE even 2,000+ years ago.
@@ShepherdMinistry Catholics ALSO believe we are saved. We’re closer than you think, it’s how protestants THINK incorrectly and how some Catholics explain insufficiently our gospel of salvation. The nuance is this where we agree: 1) Catholics are initially saved by God’s free grace through NO MERIT EARNED on our own (God moves first) 2) through faith (we respond to God’s grace next) Faith is defined in John 3:36 & Heb 11:2 or: Jesus says, BELIEVE and OBEY Paul writes, ASSURANCE in hope and EVIDENCE of invisible Acts 2:38 - BELIEVE, REPENT, BAPTIZE Finally, Galatians 5:6 says, …”FAITH WORKING via LOVE” THAT is how God defined good news for us written IN THE SCRIPTURES (for both Prots and Caths) and for Caths, - our Magisterium affirms AND - Oral passing from Apostles to Bishops and so on tradition clearly defined the doctrine. So there is ONE teaching under the authority given by Christ to his apostles and their succession to bind and loose. We have the new Seat of Moses and Sanhedrin council replaced by Seat of Peter and Magisterium that Jesus instituted just like how God instituted in mainly beginning with Moses and Aaron and his priests, and the 70 elders. (Exodus) There is no controversy here
That is not charitable. As if simply being Catholic is a ticket to Hell. Some of the most amazing Christians I have met are Catholic. And you might be surprised how far back the Church has dialed back much of this stuff James White presents.
Welcome home dear sister Candace owens you are so blessed to receive the body and blood of the most Holy Eucharist. Brothers and sisters, I am so blessed and anointed every day by Holy Mass and praying the Rosary always powerful and joyful. My co works asks me always What is the reason? And I tell them the Eucharist and praying the Rosary. I invite evry one to this glory.
I have The Glories of Mary. Its 808 pages of literary vomit. Dr. White is correct when he says that reading it, it is spiritually upsetting. I can only take it in small chunks its that bad.
I'm pretty sure demons would like it even less. Thanks to Jesus Christ, the Church, and Mother Mary, who expressed she is just a creature and totally subservient to God, we've had the Holy Bible for another 1308 years instead of the other literature. Thanks to The Church, supported by Jesus Christ, we have the world we live in: marriage and the family institution and the middle class, education based on beauty, goodness and truth, architecture, science and farming technology, clean water and the sewage system, music and art and health and fitness. When anyone speaks ill of The Church, it puts us back more than 1308 years.
I thought listening to this I would feel flustered... instead, I have peace & more importantly, hope. In such elder years, so much zeal, with so many graces surrounding him, his desire to love Christ entirely is so near. If you dont love Mama, she doesn't experience any negativity provided you find your way to Her Son. However, Christ calls us to honor His Mother, just as He does. Dont be afraid to love Her. She knows Her, Son better than any man. She's not a threat, She the perfect guide!
It does. But don’t to fear Him in dread for sin. After taking sin to Christ, we are to fear Him for how great He is. But whereas our fear of dread outside of Christ led us away from Him, our fear of God in Christ leads us to draw near to Him.
No my guy. Jesus is love but he’s also righteousness, we do have to humble ourselves and have fear because we have to make ourselves worthy of what Jesus asks of us. Sin doesn’t damn us but not being repentant and not trying to actively abide our lives in Jesus can. Once saved always saved is far more unbiblical than any unbiblical claim Protestants can make about Catholicism.
It am shocked that Dr. White will always refer to his debate against Father Stravinskas’s purgatory debate about the blessed man but he will never ever refer to his purgatory debate against Dr. Sungenis and his response about the blessed man.
That prayer was an abomination! It hurt my heart listening to it. How, how can anyone who claims to be a CHRISTian exalt Mary above Christ. It's called Christianity not Maryanity...
The reason Mr White’s impression of the Glories of Mary was degrading to him is because he read it out of theological context, as per usual. I have one thing to say to Mr White about Saint Alphonsus Ligouri: he prayed intensely and offered up his paralysis disability to God. Are you praying more than you’re talking? If you are, I apologize. If you’re not, I urge you to do so brother. In heaven, there’ll be no debates. The prayer at the beginning is a perfect example of how beautifully the followers of Christ who truly love him, love the mother he gave us from the cross to be a Mother of Perpetual Help.
And yet the thief on the cross not only didn't pray to the "mother of perpetual help", but he also never even acknowledged the presence of "the most holy blessed virgin mother of God"...gee, I wonder why?!?
@@fifalacious You wrote: "he took it all in, everything connected to Jesus, not just what he liked." You mean he took in the truth that as Jesus' ministry grew, He distanced Himself from His earthly family and drew closer to His Spiritual family. (Matthew 12:46-50, Mark 3:21-35, Luke 8:19-21, Luke 11:27-28) You mean he took in the truth that as Jesus' ministry grew, Mary's role diminished and that is very evident of the New Testament writers. After the 4 Gospels, Mary is only mentioned once by name in the upper room prayer vigil (Acts 1:13-14), where she is listed second to last behind the unnamed women and ahead of Jesus' brothers. Notice they all prayed WITH Mary and NOT TO Mary. The only other reference to Mary in the remainder of the New Testament is where the great apostle Paul merely refers to her as "born of a woman" in Galatians 4:4. No special attention was ever given to Mary by Jesus nor any of the apostles. Oh...and by the way, the "woman" in Revelation 12 is Israel (Jerusalem), NOT Mary, God's chosen (elect) people whom He will rescue from the hand of all her enemies and restore the kingdom to in the last days. (From Genesis through to the Book of Revelation) ...And just what can Mary possibly do for you Catholics, that Almighty God the Father, His Son and Holy Spirit can't possibly do for you Catholics? Please list just one thing...one thing is all I ask.
@@vincelomonaco5434 yes, with Mary, not to. First of all, she was still alive, but that’s not to say she didn’t already act as an intercessor with Jesus (eg., in Cana). When Catholics pray “to Mary” it’s because they’re praying “with Mary”… just recite the prayer of the Hail Mary and this will make it clearer for you. “Holy Mary, Mother of God, PRAY FOR US SINNERS….” Keep things in context 🤗
@@fifalacious You wrote: "When Catholics pray “to Mary” it’s because they’re praying “with Mary”… just recite the prayer of the Hail Mary and this will make it clearer for you. “Holy Mary, Mother of God, PRAY FOR US SINNERS….” Keep things in context" Oh really now...is that a fact! Catechism of the Catholic Church: "Beginning with Mary's unique cooperation with the working of the Holy Spirit, *the Churches developed their prayer TO the holy Mother of God,* centering it on the person of Christ manifested in his mysteries. In countless hymns and antiphons expressing this prayer, two movements usually alternate with one another: the first "magnifies" the Lord for the "great things" he did for his lowly servant and through her for all human beings the second entrusts the supplications and praises of the children of God to the Mother of Jesus, because she now knows the humanity which, in her, the Son of God espoused." (CCC 2675) "Mary is the perfect Orans (pray-er), a figure of the Church. *When WE PRAY TO HER,* we are adhering with her to the plan of the Father, who sends his Son to save all men. Like the beloved disciple we welcome Jesus' mother into our homes, for she has become the mother of all the living. *WE CAN PRAY WITH AND TO HER.* The prayer of the Church is sustained by the prayer of Mary and united with it in hope." (CCC 2679) Sorry, but you do what the Catholic Church says you do! Yes...Keep things in context. May I suggest you Google search Catholic "Marian (Mary) prayers"...there sure is a lot more going on in the Catholic Church than just "praying with Mary"!! You wrote: "First of all, she was still alive, but that’s not to say she didn’t already act as an intercessor with Jesus (eg., in Cana). " Okay then, let's put things in perspective by looking at the wedding in Cana, where Mary supposedly "interceded" for the wedding party, though the Scriptures never mention she interceded for anyone, but brought the attention of running out of wine to Jesus herself. But first let's see why Jesus came to this world: - *"For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”* Luke 19:10 - "When John, who was in prison, heard about the deeds of the Messiah, he sent his disciples to ask Him, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?” *Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor."* Matthew 11:2-5 Now second, let's look at some real-life changing intercessions in Scripture: - The royal official interceded for his sick son. (John 4:43-54) - The Centurion interceded for his paralyzed/suffering servant. (Matthew 7:5-13) - The men interceded for a paralytic. (Matthew 9:1-8) - A ruler interceded for his dead daughter. (Matthew 9:18-26) - A man interceded for his son who was demon possessed. (Matthew 17:14-19) - Some people interceded for a deaf/mute man. (Mark 7:31-37) - A woman interceded for her demon possessed daughter. (Mark 7:24-30) Amazing...Mary's only concern ("intercession") was that the wedding party had run out of wine, a consumable beverage that people can get drunk on!! Gee...sure looks like Mary wasn't on the same page as Jesus! So, next time you are at a wedding, and they run out of wine, you be sure and let Mary know....okay! ...And leave all the life changing miracles for Jesus.
We hear of so many well-known Protestants coverting to the Catholic Church, yet we never hear of well-known Catholics going over to the Protestant heresy...Hmmm
Why does this guy continuously keeps misinterpreting Catholicism. He’s full of ego and pride, it’s actually sad. He’s pretty much saying no Catholic is saved? Yeah Ken for 1,500 years nobody was saved? Lmao😂
There were Reformers before the Reformation in the Catholic Church who pushed justification by faith alone and Scripture as the highest authority, interpretable outside of the magisterium. I’m sorry, but I don’t think you have a good grasp of Medieval or early church history if this is your approach.
@@standingbeforegod can you site an example? Because it's what I also know about James White that he claimed that no Catholic is saved. I mean, he's not God right?
@@HA-yx8gp first, James White has said that no Roman Catholic can be saved if they believe all Roman Catholic teaching.

I have provided the holy scripture to provide insight as to Catholic dogma on the Eucharist - the REAL presence. I find it problematic Dr White isnt able to do same for his audiences. The Son of Man, explanation given by White is well known for thousands of years, it is a term the Jewish faithful would correlate to the prophets. However, Dr White has a recurring habit in his apologetics to jump around a lot instead of making his point. Why doesn't not make his path straight, instead digressing about new words, anecdotes, describing the Son of Man all unnecessary to refute or debunk the Eucharist. If he has the proof of this let him cut to the chase using scripture in the all the Holy Bible to do so. For 1500 years before the protestant church began it's movement of faith alone, all early Christians ( Catholics and Orthodox) believed then and do now, the REAL PRESECNCE OF CHRIST JESUS in the Eucharist. Let that sink in. There is nothing NEW that Dr White can demonstrate, but he tries...However, if Jesus wanted to double down on belief alone for his Eucharist remembrance, he would have said it, correct? Jesus goes on to say " I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me." again He didn't say " same as believing in His divinity. When the multitude are leaving Jesus and his apostles tell Him that the saying is hard to accept, does Jesus reassure them that it is a metaphor or parable and that he meant belief in Him being the Savior? NOPE. As you will SEE believe St Paul ALSO believes and CAUTIONS those believing Christians NOT to take the Eucharist UNWORTHILY. Finally, below you see that purposely Jesus did not REVEAL His identity to the 2 men on the road Emmaus until He Blessed and broke the bread...then VANISHED. Some protestants like to jest that Jesus isn't inside a wafer of Bread. Jesus is God and He has already proven He is capable of all miracles and He also has proved He is diligent to fulfill all prophecies and truths of His Word. Truly. as his vocation, I hope Dr White do a little more due diligence in his anti-Catholic rhetoric. Also, seriously researching the miracles of Eucharist throughout the ages, with more modern miracles' findings making scientists scratch their heads. You won't hear on mainstream news, just like you won't hear the miracles of the Shroud of Turin. RESEARCH and READ and learn for yourselves. JOHN 6:45: It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Every one who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. 46 Not that any one has seen the Father except him who is from God; he has seen the Father. 47 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread[c] which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.” 52 The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”[d] 53 So Jesus said to them, “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; 54 he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven, not such as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live for ever.” Luke 22:15: And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you I will not eat it[a] until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” 17 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he said, “Take this, and divide it among yourselves. 18 For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” 19 And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 20 And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.[b] ST PAUL 1 Corinthians 23: For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for[c] you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. Partaking of the Supper Unworthily 27 Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. 28 Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself. Luke 24:28 So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He acted as if he were going farther, 29 but they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent.” So he went in to stay with them. 30 When he was at table with them, he took the bread and blessed and broke it and gave it to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight. CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA “’Eat my flesh,’ [Jesus] says, ‘and drink my blood.’ The Lord supplies us with these intimate nutrients, he delivers over his flesh and pours out his blood, and nothing is lacking for the growth of his children” (The Instructor of Children ST. IGNATIUS of Antioch on the Eucharist in his Letter to the Smyrnaeans: “Take note of those who hold heterodox opinions on the grace of Jesus Christ which has come to us, and see how contrary their opinions are to the mind of God. . . . They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, flesh which suffered for our sins and which that Father, in his goodness, raised up again. They who deny the gift of God are perishing in their disputes.” The earliest Christians were much more informed without their faith being watered down by 500 years of protestant interpretations. The belief in Jesus' REAL presence for His future believers is essential and let's not forget Jesus said He is with us always until the close of the age.
Playing devils advocate here… But, it says Jn 6:63 It is the spirit that gives life, while the flesh[j] is of no avail. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life. Therefore, everything you have said is disproven 😂 Talk about taking everything out of context!

Akin didn't win. He just agreed with pretty much everything Dr. White said, but failed to mention the entire hamster wheel Rome forces you to be on in order to be saved. There is no Romans 5:1 across the Tiber.

Oh james. Let say, you had taken your bath and new washed clothes and pants and underwear. Then, you tripped, and landed on mud/dirt. So what you gonna do? Just go home and say nothing happened, but in the eyes of your parents, you completely covered with dirt? Remember, we have free will. Spirit and the flesh is seperated. The evil will try to take control of you flesh to do sin. To stain your spirit so that you will not make it to heaven. The Blessed Mother is the bridge of spiritual realm and physical.

It's abundantly obvious what's driving the surge into Catholicism: aesthetics and a lack of national identity. It used to be that it was un-English or un-American to be a Roman Catholic. Now, many see Catholicism as the defence against internationalism and the patron of beautiful things. There's just one problem: Protestantism built Western identity as we know it. Protestant culture gave us Bach, Mozart, etc. Catholicism gave us the French Revolution, the font of all the modern anarchy. And Catholicism will always, always have one problem: the plain sense interpretation of the NT does not support Catholic doctrine. There are no bishops or priests in the NT; episkopos, poimen, and presbyteros are all used synonymously. Nowhere in the NT are works described as contributing to a future declaration of righteous; in fact, Paul says the exact opposite. It will take time for these reactionary zoomer types to realise this, but Catholicism is not the salvation of the West. Besides the future of Rome looking as progressive as any liberal protestant church, Catholicism erodes national identity in service of a supra-national bond. It's why English Kings resisted Roman rule WAY before Henry VIII. Rome had a chance to heal the Reformation in the 1520s; there were multiple attempts by Protestants to achieve unity. Rome chose the Council of Trent. They chose disunity.
Yes, the Reformation could have been prevented. Yes, the Reformation could have truly been a reformation. Reform= form again to *Original 100 Anathemas against Believers who disagreed with (some of) Catholicism were produced by Council of Trent. Officially & on the record Protestants are Heretics: “Anathematized Heretics” This remains UN-changed.
Um, Protestants actually destroyed much of the art of western civilization in their iconoclasm. Mozart was a Protestant? Not only was he Catholic but many of his compositions were meant for the Catholic mass. Johann Christian Bach converted to Catholicism, Beethoven was Catholic, Haydn was Catholic, Schubert was Catholic, Vivaldi was Catholic etc. etc. etc. The French revolution to any one who has studied it was clearly a revolt against Catholicism. The secret groups behind it were from Protestant Germany. The Illuminati were mostly Protestant aristocrats with a vendetta against the Church. The protestant reformation itself was primarily an act of moral independence for German aristocrats, many of whom were immersed in the occult. They could marry and divorce at will, seize church property, oppress the poor through usury and economic monopolies which was blessed by their ministers as the "Protestant Work Ethic". The protestant countries were the first to promote no fault divorce, contraception, and abortion. Again, the Protestant countries promoted the occult with spiritualism and later theosophy. One member of protestant Prussia's secret service named Theodor Reuss founded the Gnostic Theosophic O.T.O. which is responsible for most of the mess of the modern world. The German catholic bishops, thanks to their protestant influences were most responsible for introducing Protestant corruptions within the Catholic church and the morals of many of her members saw a corresponding decline that began to match that of the protestant nations. American and British Protestants and their theosophic brethren were the ones behind the creation of the U.N. Protestant Germans are running the E.U. Globalism is the result of trying to fill the void that Protestants created when they eradicated the Church in their countries. The Catholics chose disunity by not handing over the entire church to the demands of a handful of terrorists? Unity must not be maintained at the expense of truth. One could more correctly say that the Protestants chose disunity. They were invited twice to Trent but refused to attend. The greatest patriots and resistors of tyranny were Catholic, Joan of Arc, William Wallace,, Rob Roy MacGregor, Robert Bruce, Eamon de Valera, Francisco Franco, Miguel Pro, Colonel José Moscardó Ituarte etc. etc. etc. The early Protestants on the other hand often engaged in what can only be described as treason. John Knox encouraged Scotland's ancient enemies the English to invade Scotland to overthrow the mildest dynasty in history, the Stewarts. Many German and Hungarian protestants actually sided with the Turks against Europe. Britain sided with the Ottoman empire against Christian Russia in the Crimean war. The modern spirit is the spirit of Protestantism used against itself. The protestant says I don't need priests or bishops between me and Jesus, I have the bible. This evolved to I don't need the bible between me and Jesus I have the holy spirit speaking through me with the Quakers. The Protestant created "enlightenment" decided we don't need Jesus between us and God, we have nature. With theosophy it was decided that we didn't need any god since we were god.
Picture a majestic setting, God creates heaven and earth, and He says "this is good... This is very good!" Did God put imputations on the cherub who turned rouge?

God created the heavens and earth and He was delighted with all his works. How is it possible, based on the 'elect' idea of protestants, that His eyes were already laying charges upon the Angel (who became Satan) before His Angel had actually sinned, based on His own words: This is Good, this is very good? Don't get me wrong. I do love protestants. It was protestants who brought me out of the Jehovah's Witness religion and to accepting trinity. But from time too time protestants tend to cross examine people who are new to the faith like British Crown Curt Barristers. But if you look at God's word, it teaches disciples to be compassionate, having deep respect etc... By the way, how come your comment replies are switched off?

Saint Alfonso Maria de Ligorio it's a great Saint. He knew that Virgin Mary is the mother of God, you have to understand that the Virgin guide us to Jesus. You can read a part of the book but you Have to have the knowledge about the catoholic church in order to condem. The Virgin Mary Can intercide for us. You have to read first the catecism, the canon's of the church, and the traditions of the first Christians to understand everything and read the Bible. You never are going to find in the catecism that the catoholic worship the Virgin Mary cus that is not true. May be you don't know.
The part where the Bible says that Mary intercedes between the Son and men is in the Gospel of John chapter 2 verses 1-11. 1.- Jesus' first miracle was through the Intercession of the Virgin Mary. Let's explain this passage in detail to see what happened: "Three days later, there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, 'They have no wine.' And Jesus said to her, 'Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.' His mother said to the servants, 'Do whatever he tells you.' Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons. ... The master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, 'Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.' This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him." Jn 2:1-11
You are Reiterating Roman Catholic doctrines that aren’t Biblical. In fact, they are anti-Christ. Mary was formed by God for His glory; not hers. She had nothing inherent that would cause Him to choose her; therefore, you are an idol worshipper and idol worshippers will not inherit the kingdom of God 1 Corinthians 6:9 1 Corinthians 4:7 1 Corinthians 10:31 Galatians 1:8 Isaiah 43:7 everyone who is called by My name, and I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him. The Roman Catholic Church is an apostate church. Don’t put your faith in an apostate church. You are suppose to trust God through Christ. His blood and imputed righteousness are the only grounds of salvation and faith in that saves; Mary isn’t involved. It is God who justifies through Christ; not the apostate church or the doctrines of Mary that were created by the apostate church inspired by Satan or Lucifer Do the research and compare Canon 9 to Ephesians 2:8-10 John 6:29 John 6:35-65 Romans 5:1 Romans 4:3-8 Romans 3:28 2 Thessalonians 2:13 Romans 10:1-4 Acts 13:48 John 10:26 John 10:15 John 3:27-28 John 1:12-13

And ... there are alot of other scriptures I can think of that debunks the doctrine of OSAS - Once Saved Always Saved.

God chose Mary to be mother of Jesus. Mary was the first Christian and the tabernacle of Jesus for nine months. The annunciation is a mystery, the Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary and Jesus became flesh in Mary’s womb. Jesus was human flesh from Mary and Divinity by the Holy Spirit. The Angel Gabriel said to Mary “ Hail full of Grace” meaning Mary is “always filled with Gods Love” We pray with Mary, the Angels, Martyrs and Saints we give all praise, thanks and Glory to the Holy Trinity before the Throne of God. Ave Maria 🙏 The Eucharist is also a mystery as is the Trinity, Read John 6 with the eyes of faith.. Jn 6: 52 The Jews who quarrelled among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?” 53. Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. 55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. Many disciples walked away from Jesus and many still do. These are the teaching of the Catholic Church for 2,000 years and cannot be changed as that is what Jesus himself said. Thank God.. Jesus I trust in you..🙏
Biology 101~ In all stages of development, from conception to birth, baby is a separate person. Umbilical cord transports nourishment from mother to baby but they are 2 different people. Bible 101 Grace is different than Divinity.
The Eucharist is cannibalism 101. And the Roman Carholic church is about as Christian as the Mormons are at this point. Definitely just as out there. Possibly worse really.
Jesus also told the apostles that he was talking to them in spirit. Keep reading on,but of course you won't because Catholics don't want to know the truth. They make up their own truth.
@@alfredsanchez9307 in the Catholic Church the Holy Spirit is God. Jesus said “I and the Father are one” Jn 10: 30-38, the Holy Spirit is the Holy breath (Sanctus Spiritus) which is the love between the Father and Son. The same Holy Spirit that overshadowed Mary to conceive Jesus who is God revealed in the flesh. We believe that Jesus is God revealed in the Flesh which is in Jn 6. Jesus in womb of Mary is the beginning of the Mystical body of Christ and just as Mary went in haste to her Cousin Elizabeth and John the Baptist was sanctified in Elizabeth womb by the power of the Holy Spirit, we have Pentecost shortly where the Holy Spirit overshadows the Apostles and Mary and instructs them to go out.. God is a mystery, as is the Trinity, the Virgin birth and the Eucharist revealed by Grace through the breath of God. 🙏
@@declancronin437 See there you go. Of course the Holy Spirit is God. Jesus meant that he was not talking to them literally of the Flesh but in spirit. How can you not understand that. Why do Catholics ignore that. And there is so much more that is turned around. Do you not have eyes to see and ears to hear. Only one way to the father and that's through jesus not through mother Mary not through the saints not through tradition. And surely not by works. Let me ask you a question are the Eastern orthodox catholics going to heaven. They're not Roman Catholic.
Dr. James White would do better if he devotes more time praying for protestants who want to convert to the Catholic Church. If those protestants are wrong, his prayers would save them. But if they are right, he'd be swimming against the tide.
In answer to James' question;
The other day I went to confession, bowed my head, confessed my sins and was forgiven by the grace of God - so I became, by that grace alone, that blessed man. Thank God.
Give it a go - it's amazing.
Amen.
You don't need a priest to absolve your sins. You can go straight to the throne of Jesus Christ and have your sins forgiven.
@@misse8787 Well, you could argue that you don't NEED to go to Church, but no sensible Christian would recommend that - the sacraments are there to bring us close to God. Christ set up the Church to help us with these matters, why would we think we know better than he?
@@dutch1815 What if you sin and you are in a situation where your life in danger, and life could be taken any time and there is no Confessional near, do you have to die in your sins because the Church is not there to "help you with these things"? How exactly are sins forgiven in the new Testament?
All sin is forgiven by God's grace, and we are redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ.
If you were at a point of death, sacramental confession would not be a "requirement" (the Church talks about making an act of 'perfect contrition' - an example of this would be the thief on the cross next to Jesus; who interestingly makes the nearest thing to a sacramental confession I've ever heard described!).
Confession is however the normal means provided by the Church to reconcile (it's actually more accurately called "reconciliation") sinners to God, and you're better off using the normal means normally!
(If the fire alarm goes off, you could wait until firemen in breathing apparatus chop the door down to rescue you, but it would be far wiser I stead to head for the fire exit!!)
@@dutch1815 So it was the Church that invented the confessionals as the means for the sins of the people to be forgiven? If I understood you correctly, one does not necessarily need the sacrament but can go straight to God, why was then the Church obliged to put up unnecessary sacrament?
'And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.'

@@Forsthman64 sure! When she says “my soul magnifies the Lord,” she’s not saying that “through my greatness I make much of God.” That would be like a microscope: making something small appear to be big through a microscope. That’s one kind of magnification. What Mary is saying is that she is magnifying the Lord as a telescope magnifies a star. She points to God’s goodness and mercy and glory, even though she is humble and weak and in need of a Savior. That is magnifying like a telescope: making God appear more like how He truly is! Our great God and Savior.
That’s what I meant.
@@standingbeforegod OK. Understand now. Catholics agree with pretty much everything you said, (I'm assuming you're not Catholic) except, I think, the part about needed a saviour, because we believe in immaculate conception, so Mary was born without original sin.

The English word "BELIEVE" is a verb (not a noun) used in the context of the passage (ref. John 3:16) that means there is WORK/ACT/DEED to be done to be SAVED... NOT just FAITH (noun) ALONE... unless you are dying on your bed or at the cross like the thief...
Christ said, "COME (verb/work), PICK UP/CARRY (verb/work) your CROSS (noun/Task), and FOLLOW (verb/work) ME (Christ Jesus)." (ref. Matt. 16:24-26)... there is work to be done.
Apostle Paul claimed that the "WORKS OF THE LAW" (Moses/Mosaic) that we can boast of is the one NOT needed/required (apart) to have FAITH in Christ Jesus through God's GRACE... (ref. Romans 3:27-28) ... WHY?... because the written WORKS OF THE LAW, kills/destroy... (ref. 2 Corin. 3:6)...
However, the "WORKS of LOVE" taught by Christ Jesus to His Apostles is NEEDED/REQUIRED to bear fruits... "LOVE (verb/work) God above all, and LOVE (verb/work) your Neighbor." (ref. Mark 12:30-31).
Christ Jesus reminded us all that... SALVATION is a PROCESS... "Anyone who ENDURES (verb/work) to the END, will be SAVED (Future Perfect Tense)." ...(ref. Matt. 24:13).
Facts and Truth of the Matter, Biblically and Logically speaking... Praise be to God in Christ Jesus... Amen.
Faith is not a work. If it were, the distinction that both Paul and James make between faith and works would be nonsensical. We do not believe in order to be saved (as if salvation would be some kind of reward for faith). Even our faith is part of the salvific work of God.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom…

4). The "scarlet harlot" of Rev. 17.
All these texts are describing the same entity.
The "little horn" would continue for 'a time, times, and half a time' (1,260 literal YEARS: day=year principle of Bible prophecy); and the "sea beast" would continue for "42 months" (1,260 literal YEARS: day=year principle in Bible prophecy).
This 1,260 years would not begin until after the Fall of the Roman Empire in 476 AD.

The only "vicar" of Christ on Earth is the Holy Spirit whom Christ said he would send in his absence, period, case closed. There is not one blessed word about a Pope or his infallibility ANYWHERE in the Text, let alone that of a sacerdotal priesthood.
Papal subordination as a requirement for salvation is simply insane, as is the Pope's demand to keep the 10 commandments perfectly, which, by the way, no one has done since time began!
Suffice to say, the law of Moses was explicitly REMOVED as a requirement as stated in Acts 13:39.
Yikes! Looks like your Bible (if you even have one) has been sitting on the shelf collecting dust.

I am sure Candace is well informed, not only on Catholicism but also on what Calvinism teaches, so she must know very well what she is doing. Anyway, what does James White care about? Doesn't he believe we are all predestined? (btw, I am not Catholic).
God's people are in all the denominations within Christendom. They are living within the light they have and understand. When a believer is given additional light it's best embrace the light. Sometimes that requires trying to make changes within the church. Other times it requires the enlightened believer to move on to another church or denomination. Martin Luther tried to bring about change, but it wasn't received by the leadership. In fact the RCC threatened him with death.

Fortunately, the Church elsewhere and often has already precisely distinguished what and to whom the different types of "worship" are given. Latria is divine worship given only to God, dulia is veneration of the saints, hyperdulia is what is given to Mary, the same as dulia just more so.
@@BlairGordon-g8c You wrote: "Latria is divine worship given only to God, dulia is veneration of the saints, hyperdulia is what is given to Mary, the same as dulia just more so."
According to the Catholic Church, Mary "crushes" Satan in Genesis 3:15:
"I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: *she shall crush thy head,* and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel." (Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible)
Now look at Romans 16:20:
*"The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you."* (Same Douay-Rheims Catholic Bible)
*"The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work."* 1 John 3:8
*"Since the children have flesh and blood, He too shared in their humanity so that by his death He might break the power of him who holds the power of death-that is, the devil-"* Hebrews 2:14
So according to the Catholic Church, who actually crushes Satan: God/Jesus or Mary??
Oh....and by the way, there is no mention of Mary, nor is she anywhere to be found in Revelation 20 when Satan is finally cast into the lake of burning sulfur...just saying!
I don't believe God Almighty needs Mary's assistance in crushing Satan!!
It's not a repetitive sacrifice. Its ONE sacrifice. The beauty of the Mass is we step into Calvary with Jesus and enter into the ONE sacrifice of Jesus.
You believe He is literally turned into bread and wine and you cannibalism and resacrifice Him over and over and over. Insane.
@brianrich7828 nope. Bread and wine is turned into him. Just as Jesus said so himself.
Amen
😱 Of course it’s a repetitive sacrifice. You’re in denial. Or self deceived. Or confused of what Rome teaches. Jesus is blasphemously LITERALLY sacrificed every single Mass! 🤦♂️
@@williamstdog9 No, He is not. His sacrifice is beyond time, He is "the lamb who was slaughtered before the creation of the world" (Revelation 13:8). In the Divine Liturgy and in the Mass we are participating in the Kairos, the Eternal Time, outside the common time of Chronos.
This protestant critique lacks knowledge and understanding of Orthodox and Catholic theology.
“For there is one God and there is ONE mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” I Timothy 2:5
That has been the teaching of the Church for 2 Thousand years
It means Only Jesus died for all Nobody

it’s a religion.

@@Alma-ge6qoyeah, I’ll pass on that weak interpretation of a very easy to understand sentence. I’ll take Gods word over the cannibalism child touching Mary worshipping cult any day.
Before His crucifixion, Jesus said, "There is your Mother." Mary is the Mother of God and the Church. Catholics believe Christ is with us in the Eucharist. These are gifts and truth.
To John not the the church. That is clear
Mary would be horrified to know that people are making her their idol.
@@AngelaGrant2015no she would not. They have another Mary. Our Mary of KJV BIBLE IS asleep and can’t hear NONE OF THIS NONSENSE 😂😂😂😂
John 19:26- Why don’t you quote the verse properly instead of slanting the meaning to your apostate’s church’s self created Mary?
John 19:26
Then seeing His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, Jesus said to His mother, Woman, behold your son!
He addressed Mary as “ Woman” He never addressed her as Mother. He never once in the Bible directly addressed her as “mother” He addressed her always as “ Woman” It would have been really sacrilegious for Jesus to address her as mother of God It sounds very degrading to God through Jesus Christ
Isaiah 43:7
everyone who is called by My name, and I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
Your Eucharist is blasphemous Jesus never meant for His once and for all time sacrifice to be changed into something that never fully satisfies. Another doctrine of demons has been created by the apostate church
@@TriciaPerry-mz7tcyes it’s Satan hijacking “ Mary”, just like he was Isis, Semiramis, Goddess Diana, just to name a few. 33 verses say the dead are sleeping and the dead lie in rest until the second coming of Christ.
Do people just comment on these videos to argue and not even listen to the video? I see a bunch of comments on here and James literally refuted their comments so it’s like they’re not even watching. I don’t understand.
I love the mother of God. I have a relationship with her and she leads me to Jesus. Jesus loves his mother. I love my mother, how can I not love mother Mary. I love you mother Mary. Thank you mother Mary for your prayers.
She doesn’t lead you anywhere. She is dead. More hocus pocus necromancy from a Catholic.
Can you show us where it says that in the Bible?
The Bible shows Jesus setting distance between Himself and Mary.
@@ShepherdMinistry it doesn’t. And they will not argue from the Bible. As their tradition and ecclesiastical authority is considered (blasphemously) equal to God and His word. These are those who want to follow satans desire to be equal to God “I will be like the most high” Isaiah 14:14. The Catholic Church have many scapegoats and mechanisms to avoid the authority of God, leaning on man’s instead. It’s idolatrous, blasphemous, and Pagan at its core. Roman Catholics have as much as a connection to Christ as the Mormons do.
God doesn’t have a mother!
The problem for the RCC was always that the gospel doesn't leave any room for Rome to use it as a tool of power for itself, or a means of extracting wealth from the people. The gospel doesn't let you tie up heavy burdens upon people's shoulders, or devour widows' houses. So Rome had to change the gospel. That's why the laity had to be forbidden from reading it. Here's what's so amazing about God's word though. It has transcended all of that. Despite every human effort in corruption and deception over the centuries, God has sustained and preserved His revelation to us. That's such an incredible miracle when you realize how it was just woven through and across our entire history, completely unscathed.
Rev. 18:4-5,
" I heard another voice from heaven saying,
“Come out of her, my people,
lest you take part in her sins,

and God has remembered her iniquities."

This fear isn't a fear that prevents you from coming to the throne of grace with full confidence as the apostle says. The fear this "doctor" of the church is sinful fear.

So sad to hear that Candace has turned away from biblical Christianity to another gospel.
Agreed… I don’t understand why people are drawn to it
@MarsSTG bro the Bible wasn’t “created” lol I mean I guess you could argue that, but that’s not a fair understanding of what the Bible really is
Also, Catholics didn’t “create” the Bible, it was the early church fathers. Roman Catholicism came shortly after the Bible was fully recognized, so please don’t claim it as a “Catholic” book… that’s not historically accurate
@@timothyvenable3336 Im sure he means it was the Catholic Church who voted on the canon of the Bible, which it did during one of the councils.
Whats not historically accurate is saying the Catholic Church was created after the canon of the Bible. Which is untrue and ahistorical. We can literally trace the Catholic Church back to Christ and name every pope since Peter. Protestants cant do the same.
@@ratatoskr9366 wait really? I’ve watched multiple debates and have looked it up and I have yet to find anyone who can trace Catholicism to Peter, much less name every pope! Please share!

Christian: "I am saved because of what Christ has done. Thank you Jesus!" Catholic:" I am saved because I was baptized by the Catholic Church, because I have gone to confession and will continue to go, because I have partaken in the mass and will continue to, because I will not commit a mortal sin without going to the Catholic Church to be cleansed, and because I..."
Lord Jesus have mercy on them. Show them the free gift of salvation in Christ! I love my Catholic family members but I fear for their souls.
Catholics affirm the first quotation you simpleton.
It is great that you love your family members and are concerned about their salvation. Disagreements between denominations can get heated. I hope you pray for them daily and that they do the same for you.
I am not sure what sect of Christianity you are attached to, but it is generally held that Baptism is a necessity to be born again and become elect in Christ. The Catholic Church acknowledges the baptism of many other Christian sects.
I believe your characterization of the church gate keeping the sacraments is unfair. The Catholic Church is the only place that offers confession so there isn't another options. I personally have found confession to be a great boon in my fight against temptation and sin. I go to confession in part because I fear the loss of heaven, but more importantly I realize that through my sin I have hurt my relationship with Christ. He is pouring out his grace on me but if I have turned away from him and am not cooperating with his will then It is all for not. Reconciliation gives people a way to confess their sins to another individual whose vocational purpose is pastoral care and healing.
I hope that any tension between you and your Catholic family members will find resolution.

@@AdroitAntics Dear friend, you do not need to fear the loss of heaven. The thief on the cross was not baptized and he was promised paradise. In John 6:29 Jesus says the work of God is to Believe on him whom he sent. If you will simply repent of your sins and trust in the finished work of Christ on the cross you will have a salvation that will never go away. John 10:27-28. His sheep will NEVER perish. Thank you for your kind response and may Christ show you his unbreakable love. Romans 3:21-25. Have faith in Christ. He is more than enough. I am a reformed Baptist. May God bless you!
@@loganhowlett3024 I do believe that it is possible to lose salvation if you refuse Gods loving will and grace. This is not to say that God is spiteful in his judgement as he wishes for all to be saved. Jesus in his parables (the Sower, the Watchful Servants, and the Ten Virgins) is clear that someone can be a Professing Christian and yet lose salvation. I get your point that the good thief might not have been baptized. If someone dies with a desire/intention to be baptized they can receive the grace of baptism without the sacramentals and ritual. However, just because it is possible, does not mean it is advisable. We both agree that every single person should be baptized and practice their faith.
@@AdroitAntics My friend Iknow you believe one can lose their salvation. I am familiar with Catholic doctrine. Jesus disagrees with you. His sheep will never perish and no one snatches them from his hand John 10:28. In Roman's 8:28-30 it says those whom he called he justified and glorified. A professing Christian who is not born again has no salvation to lose. Jesus says no one can lose their salvation as does Paul. A simple question to ponder. Is your salvation an act of God or of yourself? Galatians 3:1-9 and Galatians 5:4. If Christ's sacrifice on the cross is not enough nothing you or I can ever do will be enough. It is Finished. Believe the Gospel. I was baptized and follow Jesus out of love and a desire to obey. I have the righteousness of Christ 2nd Corinthians 5:21. I earn nothing it is all of Christ. To him be all the Glory. The Lord be with you.

All that the Father gives to Jesus will come to Jesus and all that come to Jesus He will not cast away because He has come down out of heaven to do the will of the Father and The will of the father is that all that He gives to Jesus will be raised up by Jesus in the last day and be saved and Jesus won’t lose one of them.
You became Catholic because you actually know and understand the Gospels - not like these twisted satanist who call themselves "Christians". Much like satan; they rattle off carefully picked scripture, chapter and verse - because the prince of lies knows the Holy Bible better than any human. Satan truly believes in the Lord God; but like these heretics; he is disobedient. Satan has abandoned Christ; just as the followers of man-made religions have abandoned Christ- John 6:66.
Praise be Our Lord and the Holy Ghost whom brought you back into the Light, my brother. You stand with the Master of the Universe and the People of God; they stand in the darkness. We will pray that they also see the Light; and not led astray by egotistical men with forked tongues who only exist to scatter the People of God.
May God bless us; Praise be Our Lord.
@DoubleAJ-cl5qq Your man-made " accept Jesus Christ as Lord and sin boldly " doctrine by the inventor of your man-made church stinks of pure evil; and is obviously contradictory of the Gospels and all of Christianity as the Apostles tought. Repent for blaspheme Our Lord to millions of people online and attempting to scatter the Lords flock - the People of God.
To be gracious; it is likely your ignorance that has led you to offend God. You adore and idolize charismatic men whom with zero authority; lay-men; spread their demonic interpretations of scripture to helpless sheep. Repent, and there may still be time.

My friend James I have learned so much from you about to stay away from the catholic church and its teachings and the penalty imposed when someone turns away from catholic faith, like you have said in your debates: under the pain of the Anathema if someone walks away from the catholic faith. Christ is your savior so he is mine our hope is HE through the gospel. Amen
Amen, tragically these comments on here show how blind they to truth of Jesus of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
The multi-form of salvation is of Jesus Christ: the church, the sacraments, purgatory, sacramentals...the catholic bible.
It stands to reason that we shouldn't leave his church for anything less.
@@margaritoceja the term “ his church” are just words with no power. On the year 1054 the great schism, who seperated from who? The Roman Catholics or the Greek Orthodox Catholics?

The Roman Catholic church its just a by-product of that seperation, the true Catholics should be if there is one supposed true church the Greek Orthodox.

@roneygarcia8743 Jesus and the saints. Aren't we all children of God and his mother. Aren't we united in the Father. Aren't we united in the mother. Haven't the bishop and the patriarch reconciled a long time ago. Who is called the deciever. From the beginning until now, who has put-up flesh, sweat, blood and tears to preserve the bible for another 1308 years. Who has historically fought sword against sword and won with the help of God, Mary and angels. Every time we discredit the church, it draws us back closer to the seventh century, not just the eleventh. Be happy chastity is still highly praised in our western society and not 7th century pedophilia, incest is not the daily norm and intersaguinius marriage is not acceptable. Who is still swoing the blood of the martyrs; St. Maximilian Kolbe joyfully offered his life in a natzi prison, in the twentyth century.
The more I listen to James, the more i appreciate being one with the Catholic Church. Dude has completely lost it and you see it in his recent debates with members of Christ's Catholic Church in his aggressive, gish galloping way. Rude, snarky and arrogance are definitely a turn off. Welcome home Candace Owens!!
Candace, blessed be Jesus our Lord for this grace to you! Indeed Christ is King!
1) Not everything written by every "doctor" of the Church must be orthodox. Doctors of the Church have helped clarify and develop various teachings. Development does not mean something new but simply explicitly stating what has always been implicit.
2) Protestants think that "devotional" writings are meant to convey orthodox teachings.
3) Asking Mary to pray for us is not any form of worship. Protestants don't have a clue what true worship is... namely offering sacrifices…
Everything Catholics (and Eastern Orthodox Christians) believe about Mary stems from one basic, historical fact that has profound implications...
Mary, a simple, humble creature of God, bore “God Incarnate” in her womb.
We honor (never worship) Mary because it was through her act of surrender (“be it unto me according to thy word Luke 1:38) that the means of our salvation, Jesus Christ, entered the world.
God could have entered the world through a sinful woman but chose not to because God determined it was fitting to enter though a Holy Vessel as a means of the incarnation.
Some Protestants complain that this violates the Biblical concept that “all have sinned” (2 Chronicles 6:36, Romans 3:28, 1 John 1:8). However, Jesus, was a man and did not sin therefore these passages cannot be taken to be understood in an “absolute” sense, but rather a “general” sense.
Paul and the author of Hebrews (Hebrews 4:15 and 2 Cor 5:21) could also have stated that “Mary” was like us in all ways, except she did not sin. However, the implication of this is completely different. Jesus was without sin because of His divinity. Mary was without sin because of God’s grace operating in her.
We know God’s grace was operating in her based on Luke 1:26-30 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. And he came to her and said, "Hail, O favored one, the Lord is with you!" But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. And the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
“O favored one” is one word in Greek, Kecharitōmenē. This word is only used one time in scripture. Also, the greeting “Hail” (“kai”) is normally reserved for royalty. More on that later. Notice Mary’s response to this greeting: “But she was greatly troubled at the saying and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be”.
This word, Kecharitōmenē could be translated as “one who has been perfected in grace” or “full of grace” as Jerome translated it. We honor her because she, being made “full of grace”, is a sign of what God wants to do for us. She is our ultimate role model as a human saint. When we get to heaven, all of us will be “full of grace”. Mary’s holiness was, in a sense, God’s preparation for her to become the holy vessel of the incarnation.
Luke 1:38 And Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her.
What I discovered is that through her “fiat” (saying Yes to God), Mary played a unique role in salvation history by bringing Jesus to us two thousand years ago. This is another reason why we give her honor. She demonstrates to us what it means to be a disciple of Christ by her absolute surrender to God’s will and its implications for our salvation.
Luke 1:41-43 And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and she exclaimed with a loud cry, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Clearly, Elizabeth is giving honor to Mary when she proclaimed, “And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me”. If it was appropriate for Elizabeth to honor Mary, why would it be inappropriate for me to honor Mary today?
We honor Mary because her soul magnifies the Lord. Luke 1:44-46 And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden. For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.”
Catholics and Eastern Orthodox have always honored Mary by calling her “blessed”. Unfortunately, Protestants have chosen to completely ignore Luke 1:44-46.
Because Mary’s womb was set apart for this sacred use, much like the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy of Holies in the Old Testament, she was never had another children. If she had other children Jesus would not have given her to John at the foot of the cross.
As far as the brothers of Christ are concerned, it should be noted that there is no verse in scripture that states any of them are the biological children of either Mary. It should be noted that the word for “brother” in Greek isn’t always limited to one’s biological brother. There are passages that this word may point to “kinfolk” like cousins or even uncles or simply spiritual “brothers”.
Let’s start with James, the first bishop of Jerusalem (Acts 12:17, 15:13, 21:18; Galatians 1:19; 2:9-12) and the author of the epistle of James. Paul mentions that when he met with the Apostles, he includes James, the “brother of Jesus” in his partial list of the 12 disciples that he met with. However, we know from the gospels that the 2 apostles named James were stated as sons of men other than Joseph, Zebedee and Alpheus (Matt 10:2-3; Mark 3:18).
Likewise, two of the brothers of Jesus, James, and Joseph (Mt 13:55) are mentioned again together at the foot of the cross in Matthew 27:56 as being the sons of “another Mary” not Mary, mother of Jesus. I highly recommend Brant Pitre’s Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary treatment of this subject. He makes a very convincing case from scripture alone that none of the supposed “brothers” of Christ are not biological brothers through Mary but rather, they are cousins of Jesus. Another valid possibility is that the Joseph may have been a widower when he married Mary and the “brothers” of Jesus may have been existing children from Joseph’s first marriage. The Church allows both as valid opinions.
If Mary was this Holy then her assumption is reasonable, just like Enoch (Gen 5:24 Heb 11:5) and Elijah (2 Kin ch 2).
James White has never satisfactorily addressed the questions that led me to the Catholic faith at age 46:
1) If "Sola Scriptura" was God's plan why has it produced so many contradictory doctrines including how we are saved?
2) How was "Sola Scriptura" God's plan when in the first 12 years the only scripture available to Christians was the Old Testament and even then, the Old Testament canon was not settled.
3) Most of the references to the authority of scripture in the New Testament point to the Old Testament. If those passages were teaching Sola Scriptura than they would be saying that the Old Testament is sufficient. Instead, why does the New Testament clearly point to the authority of the Apostolic Church and of Apostolic Tradition, not scripture alone?
4) Based on the texts of first and second century Christians (or the Apostolic Fathers... Ignatius of Antioch, Clement of Rome, Polycarp, Justin Martyr, the Didache, Irenaeus of Lyon, etc.) how do we explain the overwhelming historical evidence that Protestants have not done a good job preserving the Apostolic Tradition and rejecting doctrines like Apostolic Succession?
5) It was the Catholic Church that established the 27 book New Testament Canon that Protestants accept. How can a fallible Church define an infallible Canon?
6) The Catholic Church teaches we are saved by God's grace alone. We are restored by faith and baptism. In our baptism, we provide the faith and God provides the saving grace. After baptism, we allow God to change us from the inside out (sanctifying grace) and to work through us to prepare us for our final judgement. Prayer and the sacraments are the principal means of receiving sanctifying grace. How can I say that the Catholic Church teaches a "different gospel" when the Catholic view of salvation is far more Biblical than any Protestant view?
If you're referring to Ligouri, and his book, it has been approved and renewed by the current pope in every reprinting since the first in 1750. It is the accepted teaching of the papist church by definition. Every pope. Not just one pope.

When will people understand that Jesus tells you if you do repent of your sins and show mercy and forgive others and become born from above that these are the requirements that you do and have faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and confess him to the world is what The Father God in heaven who Jesus prayed to requires of to everyone.

A relationship in Christ in is just as important.

Well, that is the Biblical TRUTH taught by Christ Jesus through His Apostles in the 1st Cent. A.D., before the Individual Written Scriptures (Word of God) were completed around 110 A.D....
The 7 CHURCHES of God through Christ Jesus in Asia Minor started around 30-33 A.D. during Pentecost Day "WITHOUT" the COMPLETE Manuscripts/Written Epistles/Letters, Gospels, Acts of the Apostles, and Revelation, just the ORAL/SPOKEN Traditions of the Apostles for about 40 to 70 years... the Gospels were written only after the 2nd Temple in Jerusalem was destroyed by the Roman Empire around 70 A.D.
Where were the PROTESTANISM and EVANGELICALS at that time the CHURCH of God in Christ had begun?... nowhere to be found, they only started in the 15th Cent. A.D., as the PRODIGAL SONS of the R.C.C. ... Are the Protestants/Evangelicals better than the CHURCH FOREFATHERS in terms of Interpreting the Scriptures?... NOPE...
Apostle John revealed to us that there were OTHER THINGS that Christ Jesus had done that were not written down (ref. John 21:25) but were witnessed by many in the 1st Cent. A.D.... some of which became the ORA/SPOKEN TRADITION of the Early 7 CHURCHES in Asia Minor that up to now had been practiced by Christians under the LEADERSHIP of Apostle Peter the 1st Overseer/Episcopal/Bishop of God's Church in Christ of the 1st Cent. A.D. with the KEYS of Authority to "BIND and LOSE" on Earth as in Heaven given by God through Christ Jesus...
The APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION of the Churches was continued (carried on) by the Greek and Roman Catholic (Universal) Church (R.C.C.) in the 4th Cent. A.D. up to this day...
Facts and Truth of the Matters, Biblically and Historically speaking... Praise be to God in Christ Jesus...

Many of Rome’s false doctrines stem from their false gospel. Mass, penance, purgatory, etc all stem from their false gospel that doesn’t save and doesn’t bring peace with God. All the extras are needed to fill the holes and gaps in their soteriology, if you can even call it that. Instead of the true gospel that unites us to Christ through Faith and the result is salvation and the sanctification that results in a changed life. With Rome you get an endless cycle of penance and fear and anxiety and a system that gives Rome power and their people terror and anxiety. Rome abandoned the scripture and the faith of the early church long ago. Any honest review of history will clearly show that Rome today is nowhere near what the early church believed. It has been hundreds of years of slow accretions and inventions of men from pagan, mystic and gnostic sources. The Reformation, praise God, was a return to the church that Christ and the Apostles handed the church fathers. It was a return to scripture as the highest authority that all other authorities must be judged against. Other authorities are useful and edifying, but once you elevate some other authority to the level of scripture, you are bound to end up in endless ditches like Rome has found itself countless times.
When are Catholics going to realize ?

The sad part is Mr. White constantly uses the same arguments over and over again, even though they are sufficiently answered by Catholic apologists. Which can't be said for arguments against his own tradition.... Look at the Early Church and there you will find the Catholic Church. Nothing remotely resembles the Protestant Church (start with the first 3 centuries). For example, if you were to walk into a Early Church would you see a pulpit at the forefront center of the church or would you see an altar? Did Church revolve around the sermon or did it revolve around worshiping Jesus in the Eucharist? The burden of proof would be on Protestants to prove otherwise.
Have you listened to any of his debates with Roman Catholics? You should! They are enjoyable.
@@standingbeforegod Sure have... I just watched him debate Jimmy Akins... The consensus in the comment section was that Mr. Akins won the debate hands down. Many Protestants who commented also concurred that Jimmy won. Jimmy did a great job explaining how there are a plethora quotes from Protestant leaders (ie:Martin Luther, etc.) who would be in agreement with Catholic doctrinal teachings. Unfortunately, as we know, there is no unity within the Protestant faith on many essential doctrines... Jesus prays for all believers that we should be one (Jn: 17: 20-23). Which is why I ask anyone who wants to faithfully follow Jesus to look at the Early Church and ask yourself is it Protestant or Catholic?... God Bless you!
@@brianh2477 The reason the arguments don't change is that truth doesn't change. Rome's arguments change all the time because they have dramatically changed just in the last 150 years. Pope Francis would have been burnt on the stake 500 years ago. The "consensus" in the comments isn't really a consensus. The comments are always filled with coping youtube Catholics and orthobros, that's just youtube religious culture. I'm in a high church presbyterian reformed congregation and we have droves of dedicated conservative roman Catholics joining our church ALL the time. They are usually in the majority of new members. Rome cannot give you peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Akins didn't win that debate, he never mention the entire hamster wheel Rome forces you to be on in order to be saved. There is no peace. In the final analysis, salvation lies with you. God did all he could but you failed. That is not good news at all. It's depressing. By the way, the early church fathers were not Roman Catholic, nor Eastern Orthodox, nor Protestant. They were just the early church Fathers. Read Calvin's institutes. The entire book is arguing against Rome to bring the church BACK to the early church as understood by the Fathers. Rome is far from that.
@unhitched5108 Steve, All I asked is what would you see if you walked in a Early Christian Church at the center forefront... I have proof of what you would see if you'd like me to elaborate. And it wouldn't look or teach anything like what you would hear or see in Protestant Churches.
Moreover, the Word of God is both Scripture and Oral Tradition which is btw IN SCRIPTURE.
Paul says that much Christian teaching is to be found in the tradition which is handed down by word of mouth (2 Tim. 2:2). He instructs us to “stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter” (2 Thess. 2:15).
So, you are correct in saying it is a appeal to tradition because to put it simply, IT MATTERS.
It's funny how the Ethiopian and Indian churches, which go back to apostolic times and are independent of the Catholic church also agree with the Catholic church about the Eucharist, Mary and the saints.

Apostle James teaches "PERFECT JUSTIFICATION" by FAITH and (good/charity of love) WORKS.... If Christians are truly justified by FAITH Alone, why do we need to go through the PURIFICATION OF FAITH through FIRE?... Why do we need to ENDURE until the End of our Life on Earth to be SAVED?
St. Paul did not teach Justification by FAITH ALONE... if he does, he has contradicted what he teaches orally/verbally to what he does physically... Amen.
True Christians are justified before others by our works to show our faith...NOT SAVED by our works...huge difference there.
Read and study the whole Book of James and notice he is addressing believers already saved by faith alone, hence how he starts Chapter 2:1: *"My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ* you must not show favoritism." James 2:1
James is teaching how they should conduct themselves as Christians.
True Christians are saved by grace, through faith alone.
Only the shed blood of Jesus purifies believers from ALL sin:
"The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. *After He had provided purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven."* Hebrews 1:3
Imputed Righteousness:
"But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, *and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.*
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. *If we confess our sins (To God), He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."* 1 John 1:7-9

*"This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.* There is no difference between Jew and Gentile," Romans 3:22
"What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness, have not attained their goal. Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone." Romans 9:30-32
Can the apostle Paul contradict himself?
*"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."* Ephesians 2:8-10

I speak of those who will not hear and obey. However, the Church does not depart from Christ. And the Church consists of those who are a people united to the priest. It is the flock that adhere to its pastor. Therefore, you should know that the bishop is in the Church and the Church is in the bishop. If anyone is not with the bishop, he is not in the Church.... The Church is Catholic and is one. It is not cut or divided. Rather it is connected and bound together by the cement of priests who cohere with one another." St. Cyprian of Carthage, "The Unity of the Catholic Church," c. 250 A.D.

Jesus never took that throne, because his mission was far more important: to lead mankind to the eternal Kingdom of Heaven as the Word of God made flesh incarnate.
But if Jesus had become the actual King of Israel, Mary would have been the Queen.

If you are Catholic please read Galatians 1:6-9 and ponder it’s warning to those who preach a gospel other than that preaches one is saved by faith in Christ alone,by Christ alone,and once for all time. If you still are Catholic after reading it you have punched your ticket for hell. Please repent!
That is actually talking about the 30K+ protestant churches who left the one true faith established by Christ (Matt 16:18)
And the 30K+ denominations all have a different doctrine - these are the fruits of M. Luther in only past 500 years.
Catholic church teaching is same ONE even 2,000+ years ago.
@@o.o.2255Many men throughout history relied on true saving faith alone. The reformation was to get back to that.
@@ShepherdMinistry Catholics ALSO believe we are saved. We’re closer than you think, it’s how protestants THINK incorrectly and how some Catholics explain insufficiently our gospel of salvation.
The nuance is this where we agree:
1) Catholics are initially saved by God’s free grace through NO MERIT EARNED on our own (God moves first)
2) through faith (we respond to God’s grace next)
Faith is defined in John 3:36 & Heb 11:2 or:
Jesus says, BELIEVE and OBEY
Paul writes, ASSURANCE in hope and EVIDENCE of invisible
Acts 2:38
- BELIEVE, REPENT, BAPTIZE
Finally, Galatians 5:6 says,
…”FAITH WORKING via LOVE”
THAT is how God defined good news for us written IN THE SCRIPTURES (for both Prots and Caths)
and for Caths,
- our Magisterium affirms AND
- Oral passing from Apostles to Bishops and so on tradition clearly defined the doctrine.
So there is ONE teaching under the authority given by Christ to his apostles and their succession to bind and loose.
We have the new Seat of Moses and Sanhedrin council replaced by Seat of Peter and Magisterium that Jesus instituted just like how God instituted in mainly beginning with Moses and Aaron and his priests, and the 70 elders. (Exodus)
There is no controversy here
James white no one listens to an idiot and you have to be the biggest on TH-cam
That is not charitable. As if simply being Catholic is a ticket to Hell. Some of the most amazing Christians I have met are Catholic. And you might be surprised how far back the Church has dialed back much of this stuff James White presents.

I invite evry one to this glory.
Repent from your idolatry
By your logic here, most Christian’s aren’t Christian because they privately teach their kids about Santa…
I have The Glories of Mary. Its 808 pages of literary vomit. Dr. White is correct when he says that reading it, it is spiritually upsetting. I can only take it in small chunks its that bad.
I'm pretty sure demons would like it even less. Thanks to Jesus Christ, the Church, and Mother Mary, who expressed she is just a creature and totally subservient to God, we've had the Holy Bible for another 1308 years instead of the other literature. Thanks to The Church, supported by Jesus Christ, we have the world we live in: marriage and the family institution and the middle class, education based on beauty, goodness and truth, architecture, science and farming technology, clean water and the sewage system, music and art and health and fitness. When anyone speaks ill of The Church, it puts us back more than 1308 years.
I thought listening to this I would feel flustered... instead, I have peace & more importantly, hope. In such elder years, so much zeal, with so many graces surrounding him, his desire to love Christ entirely is so near. If you dont love Mama, she doesn't experience any negativity provided you find your way to Her Son. However, Christ calls us to honor His Mother, just as He does. Dont be afraid to love Her. She knows Her, Son better than any man. She's not a threat, She the perfect guide!
I thought the Bible said to fear the Lord your God?
It does. But don’t to fear Him in dread for sin. After taking sin to Christ, we are to fear Him for how great He is. But whereas our fear of dread outside of Christ led us away from Him, our fear of God in Christ leads us to draw near to Him.
No my guy. Jesus is love but he’s also righteousness, we do have to humble ourselves and have fear because we have to make ourselves worthy of what Jesus asks of us. Sin doesn’t damn us but not being repentant and not trying to actively abide our lives in Jesus can.
Once saved always saved is far more unbiblical than any unbiblical claim Protestants can make about Catholicism.
@@bobizzle1605 what is sin if it is not Christlessness?
It am shocked that Dr. White will always refer to his debate against Father Stravinskas’s purgatory debate about the blessed man but he will never ever refer to his purgatory debate against Dr. Sungenis and his response about the blessed man.
That prayer was an abomination! It hurt my heart listening to it. How, how can anyone who claims to be a CHRISTian exalt Mary above Christ. It's called Christianity not Maryanity...
Instead of rejoicing for a soul for accepting Jesus Christ we have a video of a person trying to create division instead of unity
The reason Mr White’s impression of the Glories of Mary was degrading to him is because he read it out of theological context, as per usual. I have one thing to say to Mr White about Saint Alphonsus Ligouri: he prayed intensely and offered up his paralysis disability to God. Are you praying more than you’re talking? If you are, I apologize. If you’re not, I urge you to do so brother. In heaven, there’ll be no debates. The prayer at the beginning is a perfect example of how beautifully the followers of Christ who truly love him, love the mother he gave us from the cross to be a Mother of Perpetual Help.
And yet the thief on the cross not only didn't pray to the "mother of perpetual help", but he also never even acknowledged the presence of "the most holy blessed virgin mother of God"...gee, I wonder why?!?

@@fifalacious You wrote: "he took it all in, everything connected to Jesus, not just what he liked."
You mean he took in the truth that as Jesus' ministry grew, He distanced Himself from His earthly family and drew closer to His Spiritual family. (Matthew 12:46-50, Mark 3:21-35, Luke 8:19-21, Luke 11:27-28)
You mean he took in the truth that as Jesus' ministry grew, Mary's role diminished and that is very evident of the New Testament writers. After the 4 Gospels, Mary is only mentioned once by name in the upper room prayer vigil (Acts 1:13-14), where she is listed second to last behind the unnamed women and ahead of Jesus' brothers.
Notice they all prayed WITH Mary and NOT TO Mary.
The only other reference to Mary in the remainder of the New Testament is where the great apostle Paul merely refers to her as "born of a woman" in Galatians 4:4.
No special attention was ever given to Mary by Jesus nor any of the apostles.
Oh...and by the way, the "woman" in Revelation 12 is Israel (Jerusalem), NOT Mary, God's chosen (elect) people whom He will rescue from the hand of all her enemies and restore the kingdom to in the last days. (From Genesis through to the Book of Revelation)
...And just what can Mary possibly do for you Catholics, that Almighty God the Father, His Son and Holy Spirit can't possibly do for you Catholics?
Please list just one thing...one thing is all I ask.
@@vincelomonaco5434 yes, with Mary, not to. First of all, she was still alive, but that’s not to say she didn’t already act as an intercessor with Jesus (eg., in Cana). When Catholics pray “to Mary” it’s because they’re praying “with Mary”… just recite the prayer of the Hail Mary and this will make it clearer for you. “Holy Mary, Mother of God, PRAY FOR US SINNERS….” Keep things in context 🤗
@@fifalacious You wrote: "When Catholics pray “to Mary” it’s because they’re praying “with Mary”… just recite the prayer of the Hail Mary and this will make it clearer for you. “Holy Mary, Mother of God, PRAY FOR US SINNERS….” Keep things in context"
Oh really now...is that a fact!
Catechism of the Catholic Church:
"Beginning with Mary's unique cooperation with the working of the Holy Spirit, *the Churches developed their prayer TO the holy Mother of God,* centering it on the person of Christ manifested in his mysteries. In countless hymns and antiphons expressing this prayer, two movements usually alternate with one another: the first "magnifies" the Lord for the "great things" he did for his lowly servant and through her for all human beings the second entrusts the supplications and praises of the children of God to the Mother of Jesus, because she now knows the humanity which, in her, the Son of God espoused." (CCC 2675)
"Mary is the perfect Orans (pray-er), a figure of the Church. *When WE PRAY TO HER,* we are adhering with her to the plan of the Father, who sends his Son to save all men. Like the beloved disciple we welcome Jesus' mother into our homes, for she has become the mother of all the living. *WE CAN PRAY WITH AND TO HER.* The prayer of the Church is sustained by the prayer of Mary and united with it in hope." (CCC 2679)
Sorry, but you do what the Catholic Church says you do!
Yes...Keep things in context.
May I suggest you Google search Catholic "Marian (Mary) prayers"...there sure is a lot more going on in the Catholic Church than just "praying with Mary"!!
You wrote: "First of all, she was still alive, but that’s not to say she didn’t already act as an intercessor with Jesus (eg., in Cana). "
Okay then, let's put things in perspective by looking at the wedding in Cana, where Mary supposedly "interceded" for the wedding party, though the Scriptures never mention she interceded for anyone, but brought the attention of running out of wine to Jesus herself.
But first let's see why Jesus came to this world:
- *"For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”* Luke 19:10
- "When John, who was in prison, heard about the deeds of the Messiah, he sent his disciples to ask Him, “Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?”
*Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is proclaimed to the poor."* Matthew 11:2-5
Now second, let's look at some real-life changing intercessions in Scripture:
- The royal official interceded for his sick son. (John 4:43-54)
- The Centurion interceded for his paralyzed/suffering servant. (Matthew 7:5-13)
- The men interceded for a paralytic. (Matthew 9:1-8)
- A ruler interceded for his dead daughter. (Matthew 9:18-26)
- A man interceded for his son who was demon possessed. (Matthew 17:14-19)
- Some people interceded for a deaf/mute man. (Mark 7:31-37)
- A woman interceded for her demon possessed daughter. (Mark 7:24-30)
Amazing...Mary's only concern ("intercession") was that the wedding party had run out of wine, a consumable beverage that people can get drunk on!!
Gee...sure looks like Mary wasn't on the same page as Jesus!
So, next time you are at a wedding, and they run out of wine, you be sure and let Mary know....okay!
...And leave all the life changing miracles for Jesus.
We hear of so many well-known Protestants coverting to the Catholic Church, yet we never hear of well-known Catholics going over to the Protestant heresy...Hmmm
Why does this guy continuously keeps misinterpreting Catholicism. He’s full of ego and pride, it’s actually sad. He’s pretty much saying no Catholic is saved? Yeah Ken for 1,500 years nobody was saved? Lmao😂
There were Reformers before the Reformation in the Catholic Church who pushed justification by faith alone and Scripture as the highest authority, interpretable outside of the magisterium. I’m sorry, but I don’t think you have a good grasp of Medieval or early church history if this is your approach.
@@standingbeforegod can you site an example? Because it's what I also know about James White that he claimed that no Catholic is saved. I mean, he's not God right?
@@HA-yx8gp first, James White has said that no Roman Catholic can be saved if they believe all Roman Catholic teaching. He has never said, to my knowledge (and I would never say that either), that every Catholic isn’t a Christian.

I have provided the holy scripture to provide insight as to Catholic dogma on the Eucharist - the REAL presence. I find it problematic Dr White isnt able to do same for his audiences. The Son of Man, explanation given by White is well known for thousands of years, it is a term the Jewish faithful would correlate to the prophets. However, Dr White has a recurring habit in his apologetics to jump around a lot instead of making his point. Why doesn't not make his path straight, instead digressing about new words, anecdotes, describing the Son of Man all unnecessary to refute or debunk the Eucharist. If he has the proof of this let him cut to the chase using scripture in the all the Holy Bible to do so. For 1500 years before the protestant church began it's movement of faith alone, all early Christians ( Catholics and Orthodox) believed then and do now, the REAL PRESECNCE OF CHRIST JESUS in the Eucharist. Let that sink in.
There is nothing NEW that Dr White can demonstrate, but he tries...However, if Jesus wanted to double down on belief alone for his Eucharist remembrance, he would have said it, correct? Jesus goes on to say " I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me." again He didn't say " same as believing in His divinity. When the multitude are leaving Jesus and his apostles tell Him that the saying is hard to accept, does Jesus reassure them that it is a metaphor or parable and that he meant belief in Him being the Savior? NOPE. As you will SEE believe St Paul ALSO believes and CAUTIONS those believing Christians NOT to take the Eucharist UNWORTHILY. Finally, below you see that purposely Jesus did not REVEAL His identity to the 2 men on the road Emmaus until He Blessed and broke the bread...then VANISHED. Some protestants like to jest that Jesus isn't inside a wafer of Bread. Jesus is God and He has already proven He is capable of all miracles and He also has proved He is diligent to fulfill all prophecies and truths of His Word.
Truly. as his vocation, I hope Dr White do a little more due diligence in his anti-Catholic rhetoric. Also, seriously researching the miracles of Eucharist throughout the ages, with more modern miracles' findings making scientists scratch their heads. You won't hear on mainstream news, just like you won't hear the miracles of the Shroud of Turin. RESEARCH and READ and learn for yourselves.
JOHN 6:45:
It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ Every one who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. 46 Not that any one has seen the Father except him who is from God; he has seen the Father. 47 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread[c] which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh.”
52 The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”[d] 53 So Jesus said to them, “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; 54 he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread which came down from heaven, not such as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live for ever.”
Luke 22:15:
And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you I will not eat it[a] until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” 17 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he said, “Take this, and divide it among yourselves. 18 For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” 19 And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 20 And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.[b]
ST PAUL
1 Corinthians 23:
For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for[c] you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
Partaking of the Supper Unworthily
27 Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. 28 Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself.
Luke 24:28
So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He acted as if he were going farther, 29 but they urged him strongly, saying, “Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is now far spent.” So he went in to stay with them. 30 When he was at table with them, he took the bread and blessed and broke it and gave it to them. 31 And their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And he vanished from their sight.
CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA
“’Eat my flesh,’ [Jesus] says, ‘and drink my blood.’ The Lord supplies us with these intimate nutrients, he delivers over his flesh and pours out his blood, and nothing is lacking for the growth of his children” (The Instructor of Children
ST. IGNATIUS of Antioch on the Eucharist in his Letter to the Smyrnaeans:
“Take note of those who hold heterodox opinions on the grace of Jesus Christ which has come to us, and see how contrary their opinions are to the mind of God. . . . They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ, flesh which suffered for our sins and which that Father, in his goodness, raised up again. They who deny the gift of God are perishing in their disputes.”
The earliest Christians were much more informed without their faith being watered down by 500 years of protestant interpretations. The belief in Jesus' REAL presence for His future believers is essential and let's not forget Jesus said He is with us always until the close of the age.
Playing devils advocate here… But, it says Jn 6:63 It is the spirit that gives life, while the flesh[j] is of no avail. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life.

Akin didn't win. He just agreed with pretty much everything Dr. White said, but failed to mention the entire hamster wheel Rome forces you to be on in order to be saved. There is no Romans 5:1 across the Tiber.

So, woe to those who reject James for they reject Jesus.
It's abundantly obvious what's driving the surge into Catholicism: aesthetics and a lack of national identity. It used to be that it was un-English or un-American to be a Roman Catholic. Now, many see Catholicism as the defence against internationalism and the patron of beautiful things.
There's just one problem: Protestantism built Western identity as we know it. Protestant culture gave us Bach, Mozart, etc. Catholicism gave us the French Revolution, the font of all the modern anarchy. And Catholicism will always, always have one problem: the plain sense interpretation of the NT does not support Catholic doctrine. There are no bishops or priests in the NT; episkopos, poimen, and presbyteros are all used synonymously. Nowhere in the NT are works described as contributing to a future declaration of righteous; in fact, Paul says the exact opposite.
It will take time for these reactionary zoomer types to realise this, but Catholicism is not the salvation of the West. Besides the future of Rome looking as progressive as any liberal protestant church, Catholicism erodes national identity in service of a supra-national bond. It's why English Kings resisted Roman rule WAY before Henry VIII. Rome had a chance to heal the Reformation in the 1520s; there were multiple attempts by Protestants to achieve unity. Rome chose the Council of Trent. They chose disunity.
Yes, the Reformation could have been prevented.
Yes, the Reformation could have
truly been a reformation.
Reform= form again to *Original
100 Anathemas against Believers who disagreed with (some of)
Catholicism were produced by Council of Trent. Officially & on the record Protestants are Heretics:
“Anathematized Heretics”
This remains UN-changed.
Um, Protestants actually destroyed much of the art of western civilization in their iconoclasm. Mozart was a Protestant? Not only was he Catholic but many of his compositions were meant for the Catholic mass. Johann Christian Bach converted to Catholicism, Beethoven was Catholic, Haydn was Catholic, Schubert was Catholic, Vivaldi was Catholic etc. etc. etc.
The French revolution to any one who has studied it was clearly a revolt against Catholicism. The secret groups behind it were from Protestant Germany. The Illuminati were mostly Protestant aristocrats with a vendetta against the Church. The protestant reformation itself was primarily an act of moral independence for German aristocrats, many of whom were immersed in the occult. They could marry and divorce at will, seize church property, oppress the poor through usury and economic monopolies which was blessed by their ministers as the "Protestant Work Ethic".
The protestant countries were the first to promote no fault divorce, contraception, and abortion. Again, the Protestant countries promoted the occult with spiritualism and later theosophy. One member of protestant Prussia's secret service named Theodor Reuss founded the Gnostic Theosophic O.T.O. which is responsible for most of the mess of the modern world. The German catholic bishops, thanks to their protestant influences were most responsible for introducing Protestant corruptions within the Catholic church and the morals of many of her members saw a corresponding decline that began to match that of the protestant nations.
American and British Protestants and their theosophic brethren were the ones behind the creation of the U.N. Protestant Germans are running the E.U. Globalism is the result of trying to fill the void that Protestants created when they eradicated the Church in their countries.
The Catholics chose disunity by not handing over the entire church to the demands of a handful of terrorists? Unity must not be maintained at the expense of truth. One could more correctly say that the Protestants chose disunity. They were invited twice to Trent but refused to attend.
The greatest patriots and resistors of tyranny were Catholic, Joan of Arc, William Wallace,, Rob Roy MacGregor, Robert Bruce, Eamon de Valera, Francisco Franco, Miguel Pro, Colonel José Moscardó Ituarte etc. etc. etc.
The early Protestants on the other hand often engaged in what can only be described as treason. John Knox encouraged Scotland's ancient enemies the English to invade Scotland to overthrow the mildest dynasty in history, the Stewarts. Many German and Hungarian protestants actually sided with the Turks against Europe. Britain sided with the Ottoman empire against Christian Russia in the Crimean war.
The modern spirit is the spirit of Protestantism used against itself. The protestant says I don't need priests or bishops between me and Jesus, I have the bible. This evolved to I don't need the bible between me and Jesus I have the holy spirit speaking through me with the Quakers. The Protestant created "enlightenment" decided we don't need Jesus between us and God, we have nature. With theosophy it was decided that we didn't need any god since we were god.
Picture a majestic setting, God creates heaven and earth, and He says "this is good... This is very good!" Did God put imputations on the cherub who turned rouge?

Don't get me wrong. I do love protestants. It was protestants who brought me out of the Jehovah's Witness religion and to accepting trinity.

You never are going to find in the catecism that the catoholic worship the Virgin Mary cus that is not true. May be you don't know.
Can you show me where the Bible tells us Mary has to intercede for us?
The part where the Bible says that Mary intercedes between the Son and men is in the Gospel of John chapter 2 verses 1-11.
1.- Jesus' first miracle was through the Intercession of the Virgin Mary.
Let's explain this passage in detail to see what happened:
"Three days later, there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.
Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding.
When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, 'They have no wine.'
And Jesus said to her, 'Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.'
His mother said to the servants, 'Do whatever he tells you.'
Now there were six stone water jars there for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.
... The master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom
and said to him, 'Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.'
This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him." Jn 2:1-11
You are Reiterating Roman Catholic doctrines that aren’t Biblical.
In fact, they are anti-Christ. Mary was formed by God for His glory; not hers. She had nothing inherent that would cause Him to choose her; therefore, you are an idol worshipper and idol worshippers will not inherit the kingdom of God
1 Corinthians 6:9 1 Corinthians 4:7
1 Corinthians 10:31 Galatians 1:8
Isaiah 43:7
everyone who is called by My name, and I have created him for My glory; I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
The Roman Catholic Church is an apostate church. Don’t put your faith in an apostate church. You are suppose to trust God through Christ. His blood and imputed righteousness are the only grounds of salvation and faith in that saves; Mary isn’t involved. It is God who justifies through Christ; not the apostate church or the doctrines of Mary that were created by the apostate church inspired by Satan or Lucifer
Do the research and compare Canon 9 to Ephesians 2:8-10 John 6:29 John 6:35-65 Romans 5:1 Romans 4:3-8 Romans 3:28 2 Thessalonians 2:13 Romans 10:1-4 Acts 13:48 John 10:26 John 10:15 John 3:27-28 John 1:12-13
@@DoubleAJ-cl5qq We need to discuss one topic at a time, as you're mentioning multiple topics simultaneously, each requiring explanation. Therefore, I suggest addressing one topic first and then moving on to the next. We can begin by examining what the Catholic Church teaches about the Virgin Mary, as I've noticed you don't have any knowledge of this. Let's proceed with this topic first
@@aztimemachinetv1383 There is absolutely no scriptural support for honoring, or using her as an intercessor. She is dead and no one is to communicate with a familiar spirit that has passed away. She is irrelevant to the Gospel of Christ; in addition, canon 9 denies the scriptural account of the true Gospel conditioned on Christ’s shed blood and His imputed righteousness alone. He gives to His people that imputed righteousness at the time of God given faith in the Gospel of Grace conditioned on Christ alone. Works play no part in the conditions of salvation All that The father gives to Jesus come to be raised up in the last day and be saved. All will come to the knowledge of the truth between conception and death God promises to save His people Matthew 1:21 Matthew 16:16-18
2 Corinthians 4:6 Ephesians 2:8-10 Romans 5:1 John 6:35-65 Romans 3:28 Acts 20:28
Mary is absolutely irrelevant to the saving of God’s promised people and every time you pray to her statue or call upon her, you are potentially calling up demons to you because of your idol worship Deuteronomy 18 1 Corinthians 6:9
Does Pastor James White and others (Protestants/Evangelicals) better and more knowledgeable understanding than the CHURCH FOREFATHERS of the 1st - 4th Century A.D. in INTERPRETING "ALL" the SCRIPTURE?... I firmly believe NOT... Praise be to God in Christ Jesus... Amen.
I love St Alphonsus book The Glories of Mary. It is one of the most inspirational books I ever read!!!
I want to buy that book so bad
Praying for James for a speedy recovery.
Rome sweet home we are praying for you James 🙏🏻🙏🏻
A strong delusion is alone you
How can you have any peace if your not sure if God died for you?
Catholics can never have peace because they have created a “ Eucharist” that can never completely save. They don’t believe the Gospel that salvation is conditioned on His once and for all time shed blood 🩸 and His imputed righteousness alone. John. 6:35-65
Why is James always angry that people choose clarity over chaos?
Because they are actually choosing works instead of Christ. The appearance of spirituality, but no substance.
@@standingbeforegod
So that's not true. We choose faith working in charity. Is anything less than that is not true religion.
It's more than just the appearance of spirituality. It's obeying God.
@@standingbeforegod - For you to gain Jesus, you must repent and be obedient to the will of the Father. You can not have faith and not act upon that faith.
@@mtalk828watch this. 4 minutes: th-cam.com/video/eqCRCxQsj1s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WokU2jkowLYSVT0Q
@@standingbeforegod - Watched the video. ..But do you not know that the act of having faith in itself is a work !??? The people asked Jesus: “What must we do to be doing the works of God (Ti poiomen ina ergazometha to erga tou Theou)?” He replied: “This is the work of God (to ergon tou Theou): that you believe in Him whom God has sent” (John 6:27-29).
☝🏽Here, we see, you can never exercise continuous faith in Christ as Savior and Lord throughout your life, and then say its not a work, or, works don't matter...
James 2:24, declares, *"Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and NOT BY FAITH ONLY."* ... And ... there are alot of other scriptures I can think of that debunks the doctrine of OSAS - Once Saved Always Saved.
Philippians 2:12 also declares, *"Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, WORK OUT your own salvation with fear and trembling."*
🙏🏽
The only reason someone would believe Jesus is their judge is if they are not saved.
God chose Mary to be mother of Jesus. Mary was the first Christian and the tabernacle of Jesus for nine months. The annunciation is a mystery, the Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary and Jesus became flesh in Mary’s womb. Jesus was human flesh from Mary and Divinity by
the Holy Spirit. The Angel Gabriel said to Mary “ Hail full of Grace” meaning Mary is “always filled with Gods Love” We pray with Mary, the Angels, Martyrs and Saints we give all praise, thanks and Glory to the Holy Trinity before the Throne of God.
Ave Maria 🙏
The Eucharist is also a mystery as is the Trinity,
Read John 6 with the eyes of faith..
Jn 6: 52
The Jews who
quarrelled
among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?”
53. Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you.
54
Whoever eats
my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day.
55
For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.
56
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him.
Many disciples walked away from Jesus and many still do. These are the teaching of the Catholic Church for 2,000 years
and cannot
be changed as that is what Jesus himself said.
Thank God.. Jesus I trust in you..🙏
Biology 101~
In all stages of development,
from conception to birth,
baby is a separate person.
Umbilical cord transports nourishment from mother to baby but they are 2 different people.
Bible 101
Grace is different than Divinity.
The Eucharist is cannibalism 101. And the Roman Carholic church is about as Christian as the Mormons are at this point. Definitely just as out there. Possibly worse really.
Jesus also told the apostles that he was talking to them in spirit. Keep reading on,but of course you won't because Catholics don't want to know the truth. They make up their own truth.
@@alfredsanchez9307 in the Catholic Church the Holy Spirit is God. Jesus said “I and the Father are one” Jn 10: 30-38, the Holy Spirit is the Holy breath (Sanctus Spiritus) which is the love between the Father and Son. The same Holy Spirit that overshadowed Mary to conceive Jesus who is God revealed in the flesh. We believe that Jesus is God revealed in the Flesh which is in Jn 6. Jesus in womb of Mary is the beginning of the Mystical body of Christ and just as Mary went in haste to her Cousin Elizabeth and John the Baptist was sanctified in Elizabeth womb by the power of the Holy Spirit, we have Pentecost shortly where the Holy Spirit overshadows the Apostles and Mary and instructs them to go out.. God is a mystery, as is the Trinity, the Virgin birth and the Eucharist revealed by
Grace through the breath of God. 🙏
@@declancronin437 See there you go. Of course the Holy Spirit is God. Jesus meant that he was not talking to them literally of the Flesh but in spirit. How can you not understand that. Why do Catholics ignore that. And there is so much more that is turned around. Do you not have eyes to see and ears to hear. Only one way to the father and that's through jesus not through mother Mary not through the saints not through tradition. And surely not by works. Let me ask you a question are the Eastern orthodox catholics going to heaven. They're not Roman Catholic.
And the devil
rears his head! We await your conversion to Christ too Jame White.
