I am repenting from my shameful iniquity as of today in Jesus name. I put away all Lust and Greed in Jesus Christ name
Faith is believing in God and all His teachings and trusting completely in what Jesus did for us and our salvation and what He taught His Disciples to write and teach all people to be saved.
Saved meaning you can't fall away from salvation?
There’s a lot more than faith that they wrote was necessary for salvation.
Faith without works is dead -The Holy Bible
You have the believing and trust part - that will move mountain. However, if you have not Love you are nothing. Faith also includes what God has put inside of us - The holy spirit. As Paul said in Corinth - Faith working thru love.
If youe believe, have faith n obey then no you can't lose your salvation. However if it's only lip speak and the hearts not involved then there was no salvation to begin with. Believing is obeying.. the whole ninle speaks of ppl not obeying him and the punishment that comes along with it. If only ppl would read their Bible. The 66 books. Then they'd know. Sadly they don't. John 3:16. Roman's 10: 9, 10. Works don't get you to heaven. Jesus does. John 14:6 Jesus says, I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me. Jesus said it!!! He's told you how to get to heaven.
I was a Roman Catholic for 35 years and now I’m a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ and making other disciples on my journey with the Lord Jesus Christ forevermore ❤
I was brought out of the Protestantism religion by the pastor of the Church I used to go to. That pastor left Protestantism and became a Catholic along with his family.

John 4:22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
@@KeepingWatch95 Jesus was a Jew but he established the Catholic Church by the prophecy of Daniel 2.
Hey Sean Jesus Christ started the Catholic Church by leaving the Church you have turned your back on Jesus and lose salvation.
@@younis9819 you must have never been "Born Again" because the Holy Spirit would NOT lead you into deception.
The Bible, as the very Word of God, is true in itself, but not all the conclusions people choose to draw from it are necessarily right.
That is why you let the Bible interpret Itself. It does.

SO what is the purpose of the Holy Spirit?
If not to teach us what the Bible can't make it obvious.

I can prove it.

@@trina2150 Because if The Bible interpreted itself, there would only be one interpretation of it..
My question is did you finish the verse in Romans? God does love and makes good for those who loves Him according to His purpose?
They always exit the Roman Road before it actually ends!
Jesus said, call no man Father except for he who is in Heaven..
Jesus also said that if your eye cause you to sin, you should pull it out.
Did you pull your eye out?..
Amen

Wait a second, are you saying you havent read the early church fathers? Surely you should at the very least check out what they said, so that you are fully informed? I used to be protestant but God moved me towards the catholic church and then I read the church fathers. It wasnt solely because of the early fathers, it was a spiritual transformation, but the writings of the church fathers are astonishing. You cant just dismiss what they say. The word of God is number 1 for sure, but the early fathers and what they have written supports the bible. There is nothing in the early fathers writings that contradicts the bible(except those who were found to be heretics). What they wrote backs up the word of God and it also confirms that the church is inherently catholic. I'm not saying that protestantism is a heresy but its not the complete picture, its missing a lot of pieces. I know this experientially. When i go to mass I feel God's presence in the catholic church, if I go to a protestant service the presence of God is not there, Im sorry to say. The difference between the two services is one is alive the other is flat and lifeless. The protestant service, on the surface is very demonstrative, and appears to be lively, but its not.
Salvation is not about feeling its about a heart problem and the problem with the heart is the heart of the problem we have been separated from God by the 1st Adam but the 2 nd Adam became our substitute to remove the Wrath by offering this GIFT BY HIS BLOOD
He doesn’t read the Early Church Fathers because to go deep in history is to cease to be Protestant
I agree you can definitely feel the presence of God The Father God The Son Jesus Christ and God The Holy Spirit during mass, and I also have been to Protestant services CofE and they felt meaningless especially if the vicar was a woman.
They that ignore the fathers are afraid of what the will find. Or more closer to the truth, they got a glimpse of the writings of the Church fathers and were shocked, shook up t the foundation of their being. Not even Protestant seminaries teach it. What are they afraid of ? It's only Christian salvation history. What was the Council of Niceaea about ?
The Bible ? Our book ? Nothing wrong with Scripture. In fact, it's sacred. Know what isn't sacred ? Your interpretation of that sacred Scripture.
This is unbelievably hypocritical and absolutely FALSE.
Owe no one anything, except to love one another, for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery; you shall not murder; you shall not steal; you shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore, love is the fulfilling of the law.
Romans 13:8-10
You may want to look up Michael Cumbie, a third generation evangelical preacher who after many years of research decided to leave his congregation, salary & many friends and joined the Catholic Church. He explains it in plain language so you can understand. Do it for your own scrutiny and spiritual growth.
The reason he left the truth in favor of Roman catholisim is because he was never converted, never born again to begin with. I'm a former RC and I know many false converts who decided to become RC.
@@mariosangermano apparently you have not looked him up & listen to his conversion story before forming an opinion. Please take some time & do that first.
@@mariosangermanoamen! Once you are born again and filled with the Holy Spirit, there is no going back to Catholicism. Its impossible.
@hamidrabiipour9707 I have a ministry that exposes Romes false gospel, and pagan beliefs and practices. You don't need to hear anyone's conversion story to Rome or back to Rome. All you have to do is know and understand the biblical gospel, and their reasons or experiences that led them to Rome or back to Rome are irrelevant to what the truth is.
@@PaulaGrace123 Exactly.
Shame on you .There is only one Catholic church and multitudes of protestant denominations.
As a former Catholic, I agree with most of this teaching.
I am not arguing, but trying to understand.
He says faith is all you need, but what about James 2:26,
“Faith without works is dead.”?
Also,
One thing I am not in total agreement is although I accept Christ which I am told is the way to Heaven, if I repeat a sin or keep sinning, I do not believe in salvation without repentance.
Thank you!
Ex-Catholic here. Yes that's the point I don't agree with either. Even if you're justified, if you commit sin or live a life of sin, you are bound to hell unless you repent.
You were better off as a Catholic. Luther added "alone" to justified by faith. It isn't in the original text. And Luther cut the Epistle of James from the Bible, because he didn't agree with it. So, Protestants don't have to address it. In addition, Catholicism has the Sacraments: look up the Scientific Analysis of Eucharistic Miracles and see why Jesus said that without the Eucharist you "have no life within you."
I don't believe that repentance and confession are an anathema to justification by faith. They are an on going part of any walk with God through Christ Jesus. Repentance is a gift, a wonderful gift in walking with the Holy Spirit.
James talks of works SHOWING your faith and walk with God. It does not talk about being justified by works. Infact Paul talks about the law being given to show mankind its waywardness. The outward keeping of the 10 commandments does not equate to righteousness...Jesus upped the bar, it has to be the reality in your heart and we all need tge power of the Holy Spirut for that to become reality in us...David talked about God desiring truth in the inward parts. Abraham was justified through faith. Repentance is a wonderful GIFT!!!!....HALLELUJAH. I love scriptures that take the burden off...I can do nothing, NOTHING apart from Jesus and 'blessed are tge poor IN SPIRIT for theirs IS the Kingdom of Heaven. I have nothing in and of myself that makes me right with God but because He loved me and forgave me loads and loads I love Him and want to bless Him...to be cleansed, to live Holy as HE enables me to in wondrous just amazing fellowship with Him. He is awesome!!!!
I would agree with that; repentance and confession work hand in hand with the justification of faith; they certainly aren't anathema or even opposed to one another.@@janelouisebriggs2999

A church has been here for 2000 years. Your chuech is not that church
False preacher.
No Eucharist and No church history.
Thats sad
I rebuke you bro g in Jesus name
I have been back to the Catholic Church. Evangelicals and other Christian denominations never settled in me. Amazing people I met but never fulfilled me and the more I delve into philosophy and religion the more I realize how everyone try to discredit everyone. I understand why but to my evangelical friends how many people try to discredit you all. There are plenty of reasons to as well. Peace to all may God find peace in your souls my included.
No wonder...you are hoping that a person or a church can do in you only what Christ can.
Then why is it there are many pastors converted to catholism and almost none when viced versa.???
Quite a few, the other way. There is a book about 50 Roman Catholic priests who did so in modern times. It is called "Far From Rome, Near to God: Testimonies of 50 Converted Catholic Priests" There is a similar book about 24 Nuns.
And the beauty of it is many of their(protestants) most brilliant theologians and apologists converted to the holy Church are now fierce defendants of the Truth found only in the ONE, HOLY, AND APOSTOLIC CATHOLIC CHURCH founded on St. Peter( Matt 16 :18) in the year 30 AD

@@simplyme7476catholic church makes a bunch of rules. Abraham was justified by faith 430 years before the mosaic law. We are justified by faith. New set of rules don't change that as far as I know. Big error catholic teaches faith plus works. It seems very clear to me works are not what saves.

NOT one mention in the Bible from 30AD--100AD!!!!!

----IT WAS NOT founded on Peter-- READ the whole story!!!! Matt 16:13-20.
Roman Catholic Church does not predate any Scriptures. It came in ad300s. It was made the official religion of Rome in ad380 by Theodosius. Scriptures was written by Jewish Christian Apostles and Jewish Prophets. Not Roman Catholics. Acts 9:31 says nothing of Roman Catholic Church. Stop misquoting. Acts 9:31 clearly says the Christian Church spread to Judea Samaria and Galilee regions of Israel; not Rome. So all your claims fall to the ground. Bible only approves traditions of Jesus and Apostles. 2 Thes 2:15. But Bible rejects all man made unbiblical traditions of Pharisees and Roman Church alike. Mat 15, 23. Roman Church doctrines came from its own man made traditions. Not from Jesus or Apostles or Scriptures. 95% of them are so

>>> He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 1 John 2:4 NKJV
>>>Jesus gave Peter “the keys of the kingdom of heaven,” not the keys to heaven.1 A key was a badge of authority ( Luke 11:52 ), and then as now was used to open doors. Peter used the keys Christ gave him to open the door to the Jews on the Day of Pentecost ( Acts 2 ), to the Samaritans after the preaching of Philip ( Acts 8:14-17 ), and to the Gentiles after the Lord had sent him a vision and an appeal from Cornelius ( Acts 10 ).
Catholic Encyclopedia: The concept of “binding and loosing” found in Matthew 16:19 and Matthew 18:18 was commonly used among the Jewish people in relation to the authority of the rabbis to forbid and permit certain practices. Jesus gave Peter and the apostles authority over both the doctrine and practices of the first-century church. Through the leading of the Holy Spirit, they would be given wisdom to know what to forbid and what to permit.
FOLLOWING CHRIST is the ONLY Way & that can ONLY happen when one turns from sin & seeks CHRIST with their WHOLE HEART & RECEIVE The INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT POWER to Salvation transformation to EVIDENT PROOF of the fruits of the Holy Spirit, which goes on the record for their Salvation testimony (EVIDENCE OF FORGIVENESS & TRANSFORMATION), rather than slavery to sin or The Judgement. AMEN. HalleluYAH! Blessings in FOLLOWING CHRIST.🙏🏻👣👣
I listened to the whole thing and looked up Matthew 16 and your Bible does not read as mine. Your description of Mary's role in the church is not what I was taught or understood. When you criticize the use of the crucifix my understanding of it is different than yours. Your explanation of infallibility is just wrong, and you seem to be making stuff up. You seem to be very sincere but very confused. I would suggest stop condemning Catholics and others based on how you interpret the Bible as it seems very much like the sin of pride. Preach the Kingdom not the condemnation of others as I believe that’s a little above your pay grade and mine.
No doubt, you're reading the JESUIT Douay Rheims!
The Catholic Church themselves state: "Sunday is a catholic Institution...From the beginning to the end of Scriptures (from Genesis to Revelation) there is NOT a single passage which warrents the transferance of the weekly public worship from the last day (Saturday) to the first day (Sunday) of the week" (Catholic Press, Sunday August 25, 1970.
"Sunday is a MARK of Our authority, the (catholic) Church is above the Bible and the transference of Sabbath (Saturday) to Sunday observance is proof of that fact" (Catholic Record Sept. 1, 1923)
The Bible days "remember that thou keep holy the Sabbath day" The Catholic Church ssys "NO! By my divine Power I abolish the Sabbath day (Saturday), and command you to keep holy the first day of the week (Sunday "the venerable pagan worship day of the sun"). And Lo - the entire civilized world bows down in reverend obedience to the command of the holy Catholic Church" (Father Enright, "American Sentinel", June 1893)... and there are many more such blaspemious quotes by the catholic church themselves

I was born into a Catholic family, but after reading the Bible i noticed that Jesus never taught his disciples to pray to Mary, or to call priests Father, or Purgatory, or Indulgences, none of these are biblical and there are more... Its truly heart breaking to see so many people follow a religion of mans works 😢
Ignorance is bliss
I bet you were never taught the following either…
History shows us that Jesus didn't leave us a bible, the apostles didn't tell us which books belong in the bible, the church fathers never agreed on the 27 books of the NT through the 4th century, not only did they not agree but their list of would-be NT canons were GROWING during this time. So, if it wasn't the Catholic/Orthodox church that compiled the 27 books of the NT in the 5th century with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and preserved it by laboriously hand copying them over and over throughout the centuries before the invention of the printing press, the “rule of faith” for many, please tell us, show us, who did? And if this church no longer exists today, what good is the text which came forth from her if she couldn't sustain herself?
Bible alone is not in the Bible.
@@gregd8427 Jesus Alone is taught in the bible
Did you not notice that Paul calls himself father? Did you not read the story of the Maccabees? Did you not know that in Revelation, the saints in heaven do in fact offer up our prayers?

Why don't you do as the Bible says?
Question, how do you know it’s Gods inspired word? What early church fathers decided to canonized certain scrolls and leave others out? Why would you trust them? What did those early church fathers believe? You’re saying you won’t read them and yet you have enough faith that they Can Determine what is scripture? You can’t pick and choose. The Catholic Church canonized the scripture you deem inspired. The Catholic Church determined that it was the inspired word of God.

@@mitchellosmer1293 Initially, the apostles handed on the Faith orally-by preaching- but with time some of them and their associates wrote the New Testament documents, which together with the Old Testament comprise Sacred Scripture. Since Scripture has been handed down to us from the apostles, it is the inspired, written part of Sacred Tradition.
Whether or not an item of Tradition was written in Scripture, it is still important and binding. Thus the New Testament exhorts the reader to maintain Sacred Tradition (1 Cor. 11:2; 2 Thess. 3:6), and in 2 Thessalonians 2:15, Paul tells his readers to “stand firm and hold to the Traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.”

CLAIMS of the RCC
1. Catholics claim CHURCH refers to Roman Catholic Church. BIBLE says CHURCH refers to all churches. Acts 5:11, Acts 8:1, Mat 16:18. HISTORY tells us Roman Church was just one local Church a member of the Pentarchy.
2. Catholics claim Roman Church was the CHURCH CHRIST founded (First Church) or one true church. BIBLE says First Local Church was Jerusalem Church. Acts 2. Not Roman Catholic Church.
3. Catholics claim there is only One Church. BIBLE mentions both CHURCH and Churches.
“CHURCH” refers to the Body of Christ Eph 5:30, Col 1:18 consisting of all churches. Acts 5:11, Acts 8:1 Mat 16:18.
“Churches” refers to local churches Acts 9:31, Acts 15:41 and believers Romans 16:5, 1 Cor 16:19,
4. Catholics claim to be the first believers. BIBLE says first believers were Jewish Christians. Acts 2, Acts 11:26, NOT roman catholics.
5. Catholics claim Pope is the head of the CHURCH. BIBLE says JESUS is the HEAD OF THE CHURCH. Eph 1:22, Eph 5:23, Col 1:18.
6. Catholics claim outside Roman Church there is NO SALVATION. BIBLE says : The mouth of the Lord has spoken.”apart from Jesus there is NO SALVATION”. Acts 4:12, 1 Cor 3:11.
7. Catholicss claim the first day of the week is a Holy day, made by God. .
The Holy Bible says:
Isaiah 58:13-14
13 “If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, From doing your pleasure on MY HOLY DAY, And call the Sabbath a delight, The holy day of the Lord honorable, And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, Nor finding your own pleasure, Nor speaking your own words, 14 Then you shall delight yourself in the Lord; And I will cause you to tride on the high hills of the earth, And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of the Lord has spoken.”part from Jesus there is NO SALVATION”. Acts 4:12, 1 Cor 3:11.
----Catholics claim devote to Mary to be saved. BIBLE says “apart from Jesus there is NO SALVATION”. Acts 4:12, 1 Cor 3:11.
. BIBLE says “believe in Jesus to be saved”. Acts 16:30-31, John 3:16.
10. Catholics claim Roman Church inherited infallible authority from Peter. BIBLE does not say that in Mat 16 or John 20 or John 21.
11. Catholics claim Roman pontiff inherited infallible authority from Peter. BIBLE does not say that in Mat 16.
12. Catholics claim bishop of ROME = the pope. BIBLE does not say that.
13. Catholics claim there is an office of bishop of bishops/universal bishop/pope. BIBLE does not speak of such an office. History tells us the first bishop of bishops came in AD590-600s.
14. Roman Church has all the false unbiblical clergies - Roman priests, roman cardinals, roman pontiff, monks, nuns, friars, … BIBLE mentions only pastors, teachers, evangelists, prophets, apostles, deacons, bishop, elders. Titus 1:5, Eph 4:11, 1 Tim 3.
15. Roman Church claim its doctrines come from traditions of Apostles. BUT 95% of roman doctrines are Not from traditions of Jesus or Apostles or Scriptures; neither practised by the Church of the Bible.
@@mitchellosmer1293 Thus Paul tells the Corinthians, “I commend you because you remember me in everything and maintain the traditions even as I have delivered them to you” (1 Cor. 11:2), and he commands the Thessalonians, “So then, brethren, 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). He even goes so far as to order, “Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us” (2 Thess. 3:6).
To make sure that the apostolic tradition would be passed down after the deaths of the apostles, Paul told Timothy, “[W]hat you have heard from me before many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also” (2 Tim. 2:2). In this passage he refers to the first four generations of apostolic succession-his own generation, Timothy’s generation, the generation Timothy will teach, and the generation they in turn will teach.
The early Church Fathers, who were links in that chain of succession, recognized the necessity of the traditions that had been handed down from the apostles and guarded them scrupulously, as the following quotations show.

Those who, through no fault of their own, do not know the Gospel of Christ or his Church, but who nevertheless seek God with a sincere heart, and, moved by grace, try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience - those too may achieve eternal salvation.
At 38:15 the pastor in a video lied and misquoted the verse because the very verse proves the Catholic view that justification and sanctification happened at the same time, the pastor said "Titus 3 said; he saved us not by the righteous work but by his mercy" but the verse said " he saved us not because the righteous works we have but by the washing off the sins and renewal of rebirth" justification and sanctification at the same time. May the Lord rebuke the false teachers and liars such as the one in the video.
Thank you! I agree!
Also Catholics believe that every Holy Mass places us right back at Calvary. Every time. Not a different Calvary but the one and only time..
Also John 6 verses 22-66? The Lord talks about His body and blood and it is so important that the Lord repeats it over and over..
If you look at the new testiment you can see the start and movement of the early church.. And the institution of the Eucharist when at the breaking of bread their eyes were opened and He varnished from their sight, this shows Jesus is really and substantially present in the Eucharist which according to the Lord in John 6 22-66 gives us eternal life?
I also trust the lord's word about His Church that not even the gates of hell would prevail against Her.. Let God be true and every man be aliar? Also didn't the Lord allow Himself to be Baptisted by John the Baptist and the Holy Spirit came down on the Lord and a voice of the Father came from Heaven, say this is my beloved in whom I am well pleased
So I will do as my Lord does.
Baptism is a must and to live that baptismal vow..
A tree is known by its fruit? So James states faith without good works is Dead?
Also doesn't the Lord quote macabre when saying it is good and righteous to pray for the dead as it losens them from their chains?
Isn't that alluding to a temporary place of purification ie purgatory?
Also Scripture is profitable for doctrine ie the Church of Christ to teach with and also as the Lord said to His Church what you shall bind on earth is considered bound in Heaven and what you shall free on earth shall be considered freed in Heaven. What sins you abstain they are abstained and what sins you forgive they are forgiven? That there is confession sacrament instituted by the Lord..
I trust in Him.
I pray this might have some bearing on folks. Who wrongly see the Lords own church and flock as some thing else.. Godbless you all.. Kindest regards Vinn..
Ps
Please don't let your conscience be searched with a red hot poker, please turn back to Christ..

What does Mike have to say to all of these former evangelicals who became Catholics, like Scott Hahn, Steve Ray, John Martignoni, Tim Staples and others?
Mike is simply in error. He may have been Catholic, but he obviously does not understand Catholic teaching. Ultimately, his interpretation of scripture, is an individual interpretation. If scripture were the only authority for issues of faith and morals why doesn’t it say so? An inerrant book is only as good as the interpretation. And without a correct interpretation we cannot know the truth. Is Mike’s interpretation correct? Is it binding on the souls of all people? I think not. His is simply one of thousands upon thousands of interpretations. He simply took it upon himself, to go out and start preaching the gospel according to Mike Gendron. “They went out from us, but they did not belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us. But their departure made it clear that none of them belonged to us” 1 John 2:19
The Holy Spirit is a believer’s interpreter: read 1 John 2:27 and John 14:26. What we need to know is the true gospel. We don’t necessarily need to agree on every little non-essential issue.
@@heckbr2how do you know what the true gospel is? The Protestant approach (sola scriptura) has only led to thousands of interpretations, confusion and division upon division. Having been an evangelical, I can say that I have found the ancient and historical gospel in the Catholic faith 🙏🏼
@@rockyjames-songwritersinge5546 for me it all comes down to who my ultimate authority is. I know for certain that the Bible is God’s word, and as such is infallible. We have enough manuscript evidence to know it hasn’t been changed and even the church fathers quote a ton of it. Then the problem becomes one of interpretation. The Bible says we have the Holy Spirit as our interpreter. It calls all believers priests with one intercesor, Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. So I don’t need to trust any man’s interpretation, the pope and church fathers included. It’s clear by comparing Catholic dogmas and the Bible that they contradict each other and that only one is the truth. Let’s say for sake of argument that the pope must interpret the Bible. Since Peter was the first pope (according to Catholics), wouldn’t you be able to trust what he says? And if not, do you need an interpreter to interpret the interpreter? Back to Peter. If you can take him at his word, he affirms that Paul’s writings are scripture on the same level as Old Testament scripture (end of 2 Peter). If that’s true, then we must heed Paul’s words. In Galatians he directly contradicts what was established in the council of Trent regarding the necessity of adding works to maintain salvation. Paul says that since the Galatians were first saved by faith but trying to maintain salvation with works, they were severed from Christ. This is the opposite of Trent. So which is true? I’ll take the Bible’s account, because I know for certain it is the revealed word of God.
Also, just because you’re a Catholic now and believe the same as other Catholics (which is a myth as Catholics still vary on many topics) doesn’t mean you believe the Truth.

I do disagree that Catholics who die go to hell. The core belief the RCC has is that Jesus, who is God, died for our sins, and is responsible for salvation. The fact that other things were added on like doing good works I h have a different motivation, but that should not condemn them. Many Catholics believe in a cafeteria style approach, like not worshipping Mary, or not believing the Eucharist is Christ, for eg. Since the core belief is there, what is it that condemns them?
Doing works wasn’t added. It’s a belief in Judaism as well. So the Catholic Church combining faith and works makes 💯 sense.
It’s sad how these people would just lie about the Catholic Church. A simple five minute research will dispel 90% of what this guy is preaching God have mercy on his soul.
Yes, I agree.

Greetings, I was going to comment on some of your points; however, I see too many misconceptions in your presentation to be addressed in one answer, so I will only say God help you find true answers. It seems that you mean well, but you are misinforming your audience. May the Holy Spirit open your heart to an honest and true conversation about faith. I will keep you in prayer.
Many PASTORS and BIBLE SCHOLARS have converted to Catholicism after studying the Early Church Fathers in light of Scripture. Just do a
quick video search.
You don’t need to show the Catholic the because the Catholic has the fullness of truth. Know the founder of the church you belong if it is a man who founded it is not the one in Matthew 16:18-19
I am Catholic but open to the idea that Protestantism is more valid, hence I watch these types of videos. God bless this man, but I don't know who catechized him, where he went to mass, what church/priests gave him some of his information. I don't doubt his veracity about his experiences, but what he experienced is not the true Catholicism handed on by the church officially. I'm not an apologist nor especially smart, but I can promise you the Catholic Church does not think we earn our own salvation, but that it is given by grace through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross.
False doctrine leads us astray. 1 Timothy 4:1-4. But Christ is kind, full of grace and mercy, and even the best of us go astray. This is not an attack just a matter of sound doctrine. In order to receive salvation, we must all repent and accept Christ as our Lord and savior. We need no Eucharist, no veneration of Mary, no long list of good works, no baptism regeneration, no sacrament of reconciliation, no pope, no papacy, no belief in Peter as the Rock 1 Corinthians 3:11, no man-made doctrine, but only by faith through grace are we saved.
So earning grace doesn't decrease time In purgatory ?
@@redbird9000-- We do need to be baptised. Mr Gendron gets off the Romans Road a little too early. We do need the Eucharist, because our Lord said we do. We do need to confess our sins, because, otherwise we sort of end up in hell --- not a place any Christian wants to be! And also because Jesus said we need to. We need a pope because Jesus founded the Church and gave us a pope to govern it. I agree with you that we do not NEED to venerate Mary, yest we do so out of love and respect. These are not manmade doctrines. The nature of the Church, the Eucharist, baptism, etc. All of those are biblical. Even the Marian doctrines. They are the teachings of Jesus, handed down by the Apostles to his Church.
@@padraicbrown6718 there is no tap water, river water, rainwater, or baptismal pool that can wash away sins and save your life.

Ephesians 2 v8-9
It is ( ONLY ) by grace one can be ‘saved’ ( from Hell) through faith and this is a gift from God, Not by WORKS so NO ONE can boast. ( from memory, emphasis by AWJ.
Cardinal John Henry Newman said: "To delve into History is to cease to be Protestant'.
Good conversion to the wanderers!
But do we follow Cardinals or scripture ?
(John 6: 53-58) " I tell you solemnly, if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you will have no life in you.") What do you think that means, Pastor ? ( Luke 24: 30-32) " Now while he was with them at table, He took bread and said the blessing; then He broke it and handed it to them. And their their eyes were open." What do you think that means, Pastor? (Luke 22: 19-20) "This is my body." He took some bread, and when He had given thanks, broke it and handed it to them, saying, " this is my body which will be given up for you; do this as a MEMORIAL of me." What do you think that means, Pastor? " Will you also go away?" Remember the millstone, pastor ? The inerrant Bible was put together by Catholics. You "reformers" ripped out several chapters that points out your mistaken interpretations and lies, then with clever dialectic arguements manage to represent the exact opposite what is written in clear documents as to the "true' meaning in question. (2 Peter 1 : 20-21) " We must be careful to remember that scriptual prophecy is never a matter for the individual." Are you an individual, pastor, or is God giving you private revelation, again? Btw. your " Roman Road is out of order. You can't have zig zag chapter and verse, back and forth to make a nebulous arguement. Your like a mailman who know all the addresses and names but knows nothing about the people inside the house. What is clear : To make yourself righteous you need to claim others unrighteous.Pastor, you are prejudging whom is saved and who is not saved Remember your scripture : ( 1 COR. : 3-5 ) " I will not even pass judgment on myself. True my conscience does not reproach me at all, but that does not mean I am acquited: The Lord is my judge. There must be no passing of of premature judgement." ( 1 COR. 10:12-13) " The man who thinks he is saved must be careful that he does not fall." Are you prejudging Catholics, Pastor? Btw, Gregory the Great, translated the Bible into the vernacular for Alfred the Great in 800AD. You really ought to be more educated in many aspects of history and theology before you carry on ( 1 COR. 10:12-13) " And I too have the spirit of God, I think.) " What man can say" I have cleansed my heart. I am purified of sin." ( Proverbs 20) I know, Pastor, you have the Spirit. There are alot of spirits out there - and not all of them are not holy !
Good reply.
Protestant pastors are self styled pastors. They are not validly ordained to the office of pastor.
Even the establishment of Protestant churches are illegitimate. There is no biblical verse that supports the establishment of Protestant churches.
Protestants based their argument on scripture alone. They never knew that Jesus did not teach we should pray to him. But then Catholics always prayed to Jesus since the time of the early Church. Praying to Jesus Christ is a Catholic Church's tradition. The faith we have and the NT Bible treated as Scripture is the product of the tradition of the Catholic Church. It is a pity that they condemn the Catholic Church while adopting the tradition of the Catholic Church.
You have some interesting points, but here's a really simple tip: Please use some paragraphs to separate your points into one point per paragraph. You'll find that many people are less likely to read one long tract than those that are separated into paragraphs. It makes it far easier to read and review. May God bless you.
You really think Jesus was telling them to literally eat His flesh and drink His Blood? So during the RC mass you are calling Jesus to be crucified again? He died ONCE...for ALL.
@@missange6735
I find there is no other explanation except believe in Jesus' words that the bread and wine given to his disciples on the Last Supper was his body and his blood.
In John chapter 6, he preached that he is the bread sent down from heaven. That was a preparatory teaching which culminated in the Last Supper. Even Paul recognised the bread and wine to be Jesus' body and blood.
In Hebrew 13:10, Paul wrote, we have an altar from which those serving in the Temple cannot eat the sacrifice.
This verse is about what Christians were doing then. There was an altar. There was an offering. This offering was eaten by Christians. Since offering on the altar is done by priests according to Judaism, Christians too must be having priests to offer something on the altar. (Christianity is the fulfillment of Judaism). Now you may ask yourself these questions:
1. What was offered on the altar as a sacrifice?
2. If Jesus' death did away with the animal sacrifice under Judaism, why did Christians have an altar? What was the purpose of Christian altar?
I hope you would seriously ponder over it.
@@missange6735 Hi, from the discussion so far, there's plenty of viewpoints regarding a profound message. I'm just a learner and perhaps you can she'd some light on my question relative to your question.
Would you be familiar with John Chapter 6:25-68? (I'm not so good with remembering all these versus etc. So, I had to search for it.). In this story, some of the Jews grumbled about Jesus' assertion that He is the bread of Heaven.
If He didn't mean this, but it was simply a metaphor or symbolic, would He have clarified this for those Jews? Then they asked the same question and how this could be (60) and they were so scandalised that they left Jesus.
What's your view about that?
Why in the world do you feel you should control how others worship??????Jesus said "I have my sheep in many flocks"
We always had a Bible but didn't get to read it until the Catholic Church allowed us to read it. Then the scriptures convicted me and I was saved.
Well more so that 90% of people couldn't read during the 1500s and that paper was expensive.
The Bible belongs too Jesus Christ Holy Catholic Church not you or any Protestant the Catholic Church put the cannon of scripture together learn the history of the church
The Catholic Church has not only allowed but encouraged Catholics to read the Bible daily since Pope Leo XIII in 1895. It wasn't until 1830 that Bibles were inexpensively mass-produced, which gave the average person some hope of owning one. But still, there was mass illiteracy until well into the mid 1800s. Saying you "weren't allowed to read it" in the 20th century is just plain false.
What do you mean 'until the Catholic Church allowed it'? Do they not use a bible at church?
@@user-bx4ti6ig3i1st and 2nd reading every mass. Protestant potential convert here. This is blatantly false.
You should be thanking the Catholics for giving you your Bible. I find it troubling that you think that you are wiser than the earliest followers of Jesus Christ. You might be...but I dont think so.
Exactly! The bible is of Catholic origin.
I was a Protestant for 50 long dry years. I finally discovered Jesus in the Catholic Church. Free from the chaos of warring denominations started by men.
CLAIMS of the RCC
1. Catholics claim CHURCH refers to Roman Catholic Church. BIBLE says CHURCH refers to all churches. Acts 5:11, Acts 8:1, Mat 16:18. HISTORY tells us Roman Church was just one local Church a member of the Pentarchy.
2. Catholics claim Roman Church was the CHURCH CHRIST founded (First Church) or one true church. BIBLE says First Local Church was Jerusalem Church. Acts 2. Not Roman Catholic Church.
3. Catholics claim there is only One Church. BIBLE mentions both CHURCH and Churches.
“CHURCH” refers to the Body of Christ Eph 5:30, Col 1:18 consisting of all churches. Acts 5:11, Acts 8:1 Mat 16:18.
“Churches” refers to local churches Acts 9:31, Acts 15:41 and believers Romans 16:5, 1 Cor 16:19,
4.
5. Catholics claim Pope is the head of the CHURCH. BIBLE says JESUS is the HEAD OF THE CHURCH. Eph 1:22, Eph 5:23, Col 1:18.
6. Catholics claim outside Roman Church there is NO SALVATION. BIBLE says : The mouth of the Lord has spoken.”apart from Jesus there is NO SALVATION”. Acts 4:12, 1 Cor 3:11.
7. Catholicss claim the first day of the week is a Holy day, made by God. .
The Holy Bible says:
Isaiah 58:13-14
13 “If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, From doing your pleasure on MY HOLY DAY, And call the Sabbath a delight, The holy day of the Lord honorable, And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, Nor finding your own pleasure, Nor speaking your own words, 14 Then you shall delight yourself in the Lord; And I will cause you to tride on the high hills of the earth, And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of the Lord has spoken.
”Apart from Jesus there is NO SALVATION”. Acts 4:12, 1 Cor 3:11.
----Catholics claim devote to Mary to be saved. BIBLE says “apart from Jesus there is NO SALVATION”. Acts 4:12, 1 Cor 3:11.
. BIBLE says “believe in Jesus to be saved”. Acts 16:30-31, John 3:16.
10. Catholics claim Roman Church inherited infallible authority from Peter. BIBLE does not say that in Mat 16 or John 20 or John 21.
11. Catholics claim Roman pontiff inherited infallible authority from Peter. BIBLE does not say that in Mat 16.
12. Catholics claim bishop of ROME = the pope. BIBLE does not say that.
13. Catholics claim there is an office of bishop of bishops/universal bishop/pope. BIBLE does not speak of such an office. History tells us the first bishop of bishops came in AD590-600s.
14. Roman Church has all the false unbiblical clergies - Roman priests, roman cardinals, roman pontiff, monks, nuns, friars, … BIBLE mentions only pastors, teachers, evangelists, prophets, apostles, deacons, bishop, elders. Titus 1:5, Eph 4:11, 1 Tim 3.
15. Roman Church claim its doctrines come from traditions of Apostles. BUT 95% of roman doctrines are Not from traditions of Jesus or Apostles or Scriptures; neither practised by the Church of the Bible.
--If you decide to reply, QUOTE the Bible to refute any of these!!!!
@@mitchellosmer1293 other claim, of history, you forgot - and need to address…
History shows us that Jesus didn't leave us a bible, the apostles didn't tell us which books belong in the bible, the church fathers never agreed on the 27 books of the NT through the 4th century, not only did they not agree but their list of would-be NT canons were GROWING during this time. So, if it wasn't the Catholic/Orthodox church that compiled the 27 books of the NT in the 5th century with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and preserved it by laboriously hand copying them over and over throughout the centuries before the invention of the printing press, the “rule of faith” for many, please tell us, show us, who did? And if this church no longer exists today, what good is the text which came forth from her if she couldn't sustain herself?

Or full immersion or not? Is it the Liberal Evangelical version or the Conservative Evangelical version? Could it be a Calvinist or Armenian or Reformed or the Anglican viewpoint? Those that believe in woman ordinations or same sex marriages? Lord’s supper symbolic or sacramental? The once saved always always saved group or the not? Should women keep silent in church or speak and is this with or without their heads covered? Maybe Mormons, JWs, SDA’s, Christadelphians, or the Oneness Pentecostals position as they too preach from the same bible also??? Surely you cannot think all these positions are acceptable. If not then which one is correct and why do you get to be the one to choose? Is yours the infallible one? If not then who really cares?
@@srich7503 Google false doctrine of the Catholic Church. You’ll find it. 1 Timothy 4:1-4 puts it into perspective.
Ok, like how can you stand at the judgement?
“GOD, they told me that their traditions and antithetical man-made doctrine was equally authoritative to your word, so we were led to believe in no sola scriptura.”
People were burned at the stake trying to help you all get access to the truth.
You can’t get to heaven in a church that’s absent of the Holy Ghost. I’ve never met one Catholic who knows the will of God for their life. Romans 12:2
I’ve never met a Catholic who has the Spirit of God, spiritual gifts, or understanding of walking in the Spirit. I’ve never met a Catholic prophet or any Catholic who knows how to rightly divide the word.
The Spirit helps us to understand the word. It’s not about me or listening to me. John 16:13
If you really want the truth, you are able to study and learn. Acts 17:11 - just pray and ask God for wisdom, knowledge, and understanding of his word before you study.
The truth will make you free.
Can you repent of a future sin? How does one repent of a sin he or she hasn’t committed yet?
I’ll say it again…
Can you repent of a future sin? How does one repent of a sin he or she hasn’t committed yet?
The attraction is the Truth. Read the Bible.
@@judibeauford252 No. If someone repents of a sin they plan on committing, they are in willful sin. Hebrews 10:26-31
If someone repents of a sin they haven't committed yet, then how can they repent of it? Someone can't repent of a sin they don't know what sin they're going to do. One cannot pray a blanket prayer to cover future sin. Repentance is a change of mind. If someone is repenting for a future sin, 1 John 3:6, Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
They have not become a new creature in Christ. 2Cor. 5 Verses 14 to 21
Hope this helps.
Protestantism was founded by Martin Luther. He was a priest, but preferred to start his own religion. He removed books from the Bible which did not fit his liking. Catholicism represents the fullness of scripture. Jesus said he would be with his Church until the end of time. Satan's attacks and weak humanity make the Church imperfect, but can not destroy it.

"Those whom You gave Me I have kept, and none of them is lost..." John 17:12. "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand " John 10:27-30. "They left us because they were notof us."
Where do you get these ideas? Don’t knock on my door.
From the Bible. I suggest that you read it. Ask, seek and knock; the door will be opened.

How can you show Catholics the truth when you don’t understand it yourself?..
All Protestants preach salvation: by God’s grace, with faith in Jesus Christ, from Scripture, for the glory of God.
Catholics too, from scripture, understand faith to be complete by works of love (Ja 2 22) and that one is justified by works (of love) and not faith alone (Ja 2 24). Can a faith without works of love save you? God says no (Ja 2 14). ALL for the glory of God.
_6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love_ (Gal 5)
@@TruthHasSpokenCatholics don’t believe that, they for one believe in the Roman Catholic Church, and the sacraments for salvation..false religion , not biblical
@@TruthHasSpoken define works
@@andrewlancaster3198 St Paul often speaks of the WORKS of the Old Testament law. Here one is justified by faith:
_“For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.”_ (Rom 3)
St James however is speaking of the works of love and charity, in love of God and neighbor. Those works DO justify us as well. This confused the 16th Catholic Priest named Luther.
_18 But some one will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith. 19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe-and shudder. 20 Do you want to be shown, you foolish fellow, that faith apart from works is barren? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar? 22 You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by works, 23 and the scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness”; and he was called the friend of God. 24 You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 And in the same way was not also Rahab the harlot justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?_ (Ja 2)
Keep in mind, the works of the OT law did not exist in Abraham's day. He offered his Son, a work of love (obedience to God). And his faith was made complete by works. Works - justified both him AND Rahab. When one is justified, one is 100% saved. A faith devoid of works of love can not save you.
_14 What does it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has not works? Can his faith save him?_ (Ja 2)
And we already know that the works of the OT law can not save whatsoever. What counts is :
_6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision is of any avail, but faith working through love_
A faith working in love. The greek word for faith, _pistis_ means BOTH faith and faithfulness. We have to be faithful having coming to that initial ascent of faith, the "I believe." Faithful to God, obeying the commandments, loving both him and our neighbor.
_17 And he said to him, “Why do you ask me about what is good? One there is who is good. If you would enter life, keep the commandments.”_ (Mt 19)
@@TruthHasSpoken That is a works-based gospel based on the twisting and misunderstanding of scripture, which is unbiblical. You are stating that without works (of love, whatever that means), we cannot be saved, which is stating that Christ's work on the cross wasn't enough. That is heretical. Remember, right before Christ gave up his spirit, he said, 'It is finished!' and the veil was torn in two, allowing us to finally access Him without a priest.

My Catholic husband puts Catholic teachings over what the Bible says.
Probably because it was the Catholic/Orthodox church that gave us the Bible…
History shows us that Jesus didn't leave us a bible, the apostles didn't tell us which books belong in the bible, the church fathers never agreed on the 27 books of the NT through the 4th century, not only did they not agree but their list of would-be NT canons were GROWING during this time. So, if it wasn't the Catholic/Orthodox church that compiled the 27 books of the NT in the 5th century with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and preserved it by laboriously hand copying them over and over throughout the centuries before the invention of the printing press, the “rule of faith” for many, please tell us, show us, who did? And if this church no longer exists today, what good is the text which came forth from her if she couldn't sustain herself?

*BE PROUD TO BE A CATHOLIC..!!* ➕😇👍
The liturgy of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is true worship of God. Jesus is truly, truly present in the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. As Jesus says, as revealed in the Gospel of St John, if you do not eat my flesh and drink my blood you do not have life in you. Jesus was not joking when he said those words, he watched as many disciples left him because they would not believe him.
Why any catholic would leave the Catholic Church and protest the true presence of Jesus in Holy Sacrifice of the Mass , is beyond my understanding. Satan is truly strong. The Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church is the One True Church. When you criticise her don't forget that Jesus had to contend with Judas, a disciple Jesus chose.
What made me finally believe in the Eucharist was the fact that I went to Perpetual adoration. The week after I felt such peace.
Also, when it’s explained that his body turns to Manna, which is what the Jews ate in the desert it was a light bulb moment.
@@Shenanigans_Afootthe gospel is not about FEELINGS
and the Bible says nothing about SACRAMENTS and Eucharist these are religious BELIEFS bought by Catholic Church.

Protestants took parts of the Bible out so maybe it’s in there?
It really doesn't matter what degraded denomination we true Christians are in the church isn't the denomination it's the people sometimes lonely Christians are stuck in all denominations I remember as a young Christian just saved and wow what a mine field it was for me I was very confused and it was because of people like you..we all have the same bible we who have received the spirit and are well read in the scripture know how to keep god's commands and I would say to all true Christians and especially young immature Christians is this do not worry about the denomination I have been to 4 different denominations and 7 different churches and take it from me they are all degraded and filled with people misusing the lord's name for their own personal gains all over the internet are so called Christians calling for division and denouncing each others denomination it's not important but what is important is to read that bible and study it read it over and over again slowly and prayerfully when in church and you know over time that something is gravely unbiblical then do not take part in the unbiblical activity.paul says gently advise people in a way as not to cause offence and make trouble and if they listen then you have done a great thing and if not then pray for them in revelation god always says about the seven churches that some in each church are righteous and to hold on to what you have and the victor who endures will be rewarded by God..all this catholic bashing is pointless and sows confusion and puts people off seeking to lord we must unify but we won't because the self appointed leaders are filled with pride and entitlement they come from a long line of preachers they go to seminary and they deprived converts of the true message of God by excluding anyone who has the spirit of god from being a more deserved servant of god and the people Today's priests ministers and pastors are so blinded that if an angel in human form came under their nose they wouldn't see it because they are expecting a different Christ they are not expecting a humble man who sits and eats with sinners. Please new Christian do not listen to this guy stay in the church denomination you are in and constantly read your bible until you know God intimately along with this pray from your heart sing loud from deep within your heart for his wisdom and grace to be poured out on you God is merciful and fatherly but he's also a mighty king and warrior we should see god like this and treat him likewise. Paul begged the church in his epistles to be of one mind now in his epistles to the churches ,Ephesians,Corinthians, Thessalonians, Colossians, phillipians etc, each church is kind of becoming a denomination they do things a little different in each church and have disagreements about certain doctrines but Paul says stop arguing about lengthy genioligies and petty differences and bear each others flaws and faults for the sake of a unified body do what you feel the spirit teaching you be patient and unlike me don't panick and believe you are not doing enough just read that bible constantly and pray and you will grow and the lord will use you in his own time when he talks there will be no mistakes you will have no doubt it's loud and clear .....love and peace and remember, every Christian has the same bible we don't need teachers we have one teacher jesus Christ the holy spirit and these days you have so much resources at your fingertips to study the parts of the Bible for instance you may come across a name like the Moabites , you can look up that and you will learn who the Moabites were and there history and location whatever man says always check it with scripture.
Just like all the different denminiations. There is only one way TO THE FATHER and that is thru JESUS CHRIST. HE is the one who paid it all for the sins of the whole world! JESUS CHRIST 🙏✝️🔥⚔️❤️🕊️🙌
Thank you so much for this clear presentation. I was saved out of the Charismatic Movement my husband was saved out of the Catholic Church now we live in France and there are so many catholics including his family. I’m talking notes and putting them inside my bible. ❤ God bless
If the church or sect you belong to is founded by a man definitely it is not the one and only church founded by Jesus no matter how you twist the scripture in the bible and whether the name of your church is written in the bible it is still not the one. Matthew 16:18-19
I used to be a staunch Catholic. I entered the convent to become a Reverend sister. The theology of purgatory made me depressed for years. After years of striving to secure a place in heaven through penances and prayers to the Saints, I began hearing a voice telling me to read the Bible and ask the Holy Spirit to explain it. At first, it was hard for me to accept what I was reading from the Bible as it contradicted my Catholic beliefs. Then, my spirit told me to humble myself and accept the truth of the word of God before it is too late. The Bible debunks a lot of the teachings of the Catholic Church. Long story short, I am no longer Catholic, and my walk with Christ has never been easier and beautiful. God delivered me from depression, religious spirit, and a lot of sicknesses.
I say this to my dear Catholic friends: without “ reading the Bible with humility,” you cannot see the falseness in some Catholic teachings.

The Lord himself revealed to me that Catholicism is not the way to life. It really shocked me. My soul was filled with sorrow. Many people have lost their souls because of this horrible belief system.
I always knew that their doctrine was false but I researched more after this revelation… selling indulgences, burning reformers, baptism regeneration, blessing same-sex couples, antithetical sacraments, infallible magisterium, no sola scriptura, indoctrination into the one true church, Peter as the rock 1 Corinthians 3:11, etc.
1 Timothy 4:1-4 sums it up.
Open your eyes!
@@redbird9000 I used to be a protestant so I understand a few of the things are hard to believe but Mike is COMPLETELY misrepresenting catholic beliefs and getting things wrong entirely. The selling of indulgences is wrong and the church condemns it but plenary indulgences are the paying of full penance for your sins by praying, reading scripture, and a few other things. Pretty much showing you have fully repented for your sins. The early church fathers universally agreed on baptism regeneration. The idea that baptism is just a profession of faith and a symbol wasn’t even heard of until the reformation. The blessing of the same sex couples is a slippery slope but they still can’t be blessed with the sacrament of holy matrimony. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE can receive a blessing. So if a same sex couple went to a priest asked for a blessing so that they may be healed from homosexuality you think that they should be denied of the blessing? The Church is infallible because in order for the Bible, an infallible book, to properly interpreted it needs an infallible interpreter. Jesus even tells Peter in Matthew 16:18 “not even the gates of hell will prevail” so it really sounds like nothing that the church teaches will lead someone to hell. Also the church in 1 Timothy 3:15 is called “the pillar and foundation of truth” so once again it’s described as something that you can look to for teachings and guidance without fail. Sola scriptura isn’t even in the Bible and Mike has failed to prove that. The very idea of it is self-refuting because it’s not taught in scripture. It’s a tradition of men. The Bible is an amazing tool but it’s not your only form of authority. It does have everything necessary for salvation but how do you know that you understand everything correctly? Please read the book The Fathers Know Best by Jimmy Akins. It will truly show you what the early christians believed.
@@emoore1439 To reach for the strawman fallacy regarding blessing same sex couples is just sad. Of course gay people can receive prayers for deliverance. That's not what the doctrine says though. It's very ambiguous to say the least. If you refuse the sound doctrine in the video, then you won't listen to me either.
If you used to be Protestant than you should know that the infallible magisterium is not the will of God. I'd really appreciate if we can end this discussion. This man and so many others have taken out the time to explain sound doctrine and the Catholics like yourself choose to attack him. The RCC has armed themselves with most powerful weapon of all and it's called devotion. Yall will walk over broken glass barefooted to defend the lies of that church.

"We are the true church" is lie. Peter is not the rock. Christ has always been the Rock and the foundation. There is no record of Peter becoming a pope.
1 Corinthians 3:11
if I have absolute faith so as to move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. --1 Corinthians 13 I'm curious when a minority disagrees with you should they sit down shut up and have faith alone? Or should they jump ship and start their own new religion like you did the catholics?
It amazed me how many assumptions you have towards the Catholic Church. Yes, a lot of Catholics don’t know a lot of scripture. Because of the tradition they have followed through their parents. However, that doesn’t mean that what a actual Practicing Catholic is. So I don’t agree with what you’re saying who Catholics are. Also there is a (judgement towards “Catholics” However, that doesn’t mean again, what the Catholic Church is.
I wonder what you meant by judgement towards Catholics, as we all have to render an account at the judgement seat of Christ. I hope you understand that.
This poor fella condemns others and preaches a false doctrine. You must not just be hearers but also doers. Faith without love is nothing.
Correction: Mike Gendron wants to build his theology on HIS interpretation of the inspired word of God, not the actual word of God.
... one thing... Accepting Jesus a Lord and declaring Jesus is Lord and believing God raised Him from the dead is ... ABSOLUTELY how you are saved. Little odd how he phrased saying accepting Christ is not the way to the kingdom... it is.

Here u go again ,
This is so sad, i will pray for you. 😥.
What did he say that was not correct? Do Catholics Not do these things he talked about? Does the Scripture he gave us not cover what he said? Is Scripture not enough for Catholics to believe in?
Pray for yourself
True faith in Christ means you will produce fruit in His name. The things you would never normally do, eg going out to homeless people, giving them food and drink and gear for shelter like tents and sleeping bags. Preaching the Gospel at the same time. Faith without works is dead. The Catholic approach is that they but works before Christ. Works alone cannot save. Its not about what we can do to work up salvation similar to the Kabbalists. But....
James 2:26 we read, “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.”
Heres an explanation:
Faith Without Works Is Dead?!? What Does That Mean?
by Stephen Altrogge
What Does It Mean That Faith Without Works Is Dead?
The statement “faith without works is dead” means that true faith in Christ always produces good works. In James 2:26 we read, “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.”
The context of this verse is found in James 2:14-26. In these verses, James is rebuking those who claim to have faith in Christ but don’t show it by their good works. He says that faith without works is useless and that good works are necessary to prove the genuineness of our faith.
In verse 14 James writes, “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?”
In James 2:14-26, the he gives several examples of how faith without works is dead.
First, James says that even the demons have a kind of faith (James 2:19). But their faith does not save them; instead, it condemns them. Why? Because they don’t have corresponding works to prove the genuineness of their faith.
Second, James says that Abraham’s faith was proved genuine by his works when he offered up Isaac on the altar (James 2:21). His works demonstrated that he had a true faith in God. Abraham believed God could raise Isaac from the dead.
Third, James says that Rahab’s faith was proved genuine by her works when she hid the Israelite spies and helped them escape (James 2:25). Her works demonstrated that she had a true faith in God. Rahab believed God could help her and the Israelites defeat their enemies.
Fourth, James says that a person’s faith is proved genuine by his works when he helps a brother or sister in need (James 2:15-16). When we see someone in need and do nothing to help them, it shows that our faith is not genuine.
The bottom line is that faith without works is dead because it is not a saving faith. A true faith always produces good works. Therefore, if we want to know whether our faith is genuine, we should look at our works. Do they reflect a true faith in Christ?
Aren’t We Saved By Faith Alone?
Of course, this raises an important question. Yes, faith without works is dead. But aren’t we saved by faith alone? Are we justified by works or are we justified by faith?
The answer is that we are justified by faith alone, but not by a dead faith. James is NOT saying that we are justified by faith plus works. He’s saying that we are justified by faith alone, but the kind of faith that justifies us always produces good works.
When we trust in Christ alone for salvation, our faith is credited to us as righteousness (Rom. 4:5), just as it was when Abraham believed God. This means that we are justified before God because of our faith in Christ. But our justification is not based on the works that our faith produces. Rather, it is based solely on the fact that we have put our trust in Jesus Christ.
Our good works do not save us. They are the fruit of our salvation. They prove that we have been truly saved.
Therefore, when James says that faith without works is dead, he is not saying that we are justified by works or even faith plus works. Rather, he is saying that a true faith always produces good works. A faith that does not produce good works is not a saving faith; it is dead.
This is why James can say in James 2:24 that we are justified by faith plus works, and then in James 2:25 that we are not justified by faith plus works. In the first instance, he is speaking of justification before men. In the second instance, he is speaking of justification before God. Justification before men is based on faith plus works. Justification before God is based solely on faith.
Therefore, we are justified by faith alone, but not by a dead faith. A true faith always produces good works. This is the biblical teaching on justification.
Saving Faith Is Accompanied By Works
James tells us that faith apart from works is dead. On the other side of the coin, the apostle Paul tells us that the Holy Spirit produces the fruit of the spirit in us.
Galatians 5:22-23 reads, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
This means that when we are saved by grace through faith in Christ, the Holy Spirit begins to produce His fruit in our lives. This fruit is not the result of our own efforts. It is the work of the Holy Spirit in us.
The apostle Paul goes on to say in Galatians 5:24-25, “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.”
In other words, as we walk by the Spirit, we will produce the fruit of the Spirit. This is what it means to live a Christian life. It is not something we do in our own strength. Rather, it is something that God does in and through us by His Spirit.
Therefore, a saving faith will always be accompanied by good works. As we walk by the Spirit, He will produce His fruit in our lives. This is the biblical teaching on sanctification.
Why Do Good Works Matter To God?
If we are saved by faith alone, why do good works matter to God? Several very important reasons.
• Good works glorify God. When we do good works, people see God at work in us and give Him the glory.
• Good works prove that we have been truly saved. As James says, faith without works is dead. If our faith does not produce good works, it is not a saving faith. It is a dead faith.
• Good works are the evidence of our love for God. If we truly love God, we will obey His commands (John 14:15). Good works are the proof that we love God.
• Good works bless others and build up the body of Christ. As we serve one another in love, the body of Christ is edified and strengthened.
• Good works will one day be rewarded. Jesus said in Matthew 25:14-30 that He will reward His people according to their works. This does not mean that we are saved by our works. Rather, it means that our works will evidence our salvation, and they will be rewarded accordingly.
Therefore, good works are important to God because they glorify Him, prove our salvation, evidence our love for Him, build up the body of Christ, and will one day be rewarded.
Bible Verses About Faith Without Works Is Dead
James 2:14-15 - What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food.
James 2:17-18 - In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
Galatians 5:6 - For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.
Matthew 7:21 - “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
1 John 3:7-8 - Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. The one who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous.

Q: What’s the meaning of the scripture “faith without works is dead?”
A: The meaning of this scripture is that faith alone cannot save you. Good works are necessary in order to be saved.
Q: What are some good works that we can do?
A: Some good works that we can do include serving others, sharing the gospel, and living a godly life.
Q: Why are good works important to God?
A: Good works are important to God because they glorify Him, prove our salvation, evidence our love for Him, build up the body of Christ, and will one day be rewarded.

And keep this in mind:
Christ said, If you love me, keep my commandments. Are you contradicting Christ? Matthew 22:37
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
His burden is light.
Do you feel burdened by keeping His law. I love to keep His law. Dont you? Eg.....
Honour thy Father and Mother.
Have no idols before God.
Iniquity means lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness. The devil wants people to continue in lawlessness so that he can take them to hell. He is the judge of the wicked. He is the accuser. His bloody, sticky claws are caked in the flesh of the lawless. He wants them all! Be careful!
Christ said, Follow me. He is the law. He gave it to Moses.
He came to fulfil not do away with it.
Jeremiah 17:9
King James Version
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
The Jews did whatever they wanted and justified it amongst themselves (even to the point of crucifying their King).
What Does It Mean That Faith Without Works Is Dead?
The statement “faith without works is dead” means that true faith in Christ always produces good works. In James 2:26 we read, “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.”
The context of this verse is found in James 2:14-26. In these verses, James is rebuking those who claim to have faith in Christ but don’t show it by their good works. He says that faith without works is useless and that good works are necessary to prove the genuineness of our faith.
In verse 14 James writes, “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?”
In James 2:14-26, the he gives several examples of how faith without works is dead.
First, James says that even the demons have a kind of faith (James 2:19). But their faith does not save them; instead, it condemns them. Why? Because they don’t have corresponding works to prove the genuineness of their faith.
Second, James says that Abraham’s faith was proved genuine by his works when he offered up Isaac on the altar (James 2:21). His works demonstrated that he had a true faith in God. Abraham believed God could raise Isaac from the dead.
Third, James says that Rahab’s faith was proved genuine by her works when she hid the Israelite spies and helped them escape (James 2:25). Her works demonstrated that she had a true faith in God. Rahab believed God could help her and the Israelites defeat their enemies.
Fourth, James says that a person’s faith is proved genuine by his works when he helps a brother or sister in need (James 2:15-16). When we see someone in need and do nothing to help them, it shows that our faith is not genuine.
The bottom line is that faith without works is dead because it is not a saving faith. A true faith always produces good works. Therefore, if we want to know whether our faith is genuine, we should look at our works. Do they reflect a true faith in Christ?
Aren’t We Saved By Faith Alone?
Of course, this raises an important question. Yes, faith without works is dead. But aren’t we saved by faith alone? Are we justified by works or are we justified by faith?
The answer is that we are justified by faith alone, but not by a dead faith. James is NOT saying that we are justified by faith plus works. He’s saying that we are justified by faith alone, but the kind of faith that justifies us always produces good works.
When we trust in Christ alone for salvation, our faith is credited to us as righteousness (Rom. 4:5), just as it was when Abraham believed God. This means that we are justified before God because of our faith in Christ. But our justification is not based on the works that our faith produces. Rather, it is based solely on the fact that we have put our trust in Jesus Christ.
Our good works do not save us. They are the fruit of our salvation. They prove that we have been truly saved.
Therefore, when James says that faith without works is dead, he is not saying that we are justified by works or even faith plus works. Rather, he is saying that a true faith always produces good works. A faith that does not produce good works is not a saving faith; it is dead.
This is why James can say in James 2:24 that we are justified by faith plus works, and then in James 2:25 that we are not justified by faith plus works. In the first instance, he is speaking of justification before men. In the second instance, he is speaking of justification before God. Justification before men is based on faith plus works. Justification before God is based solely on faith.
Therefore, we are justified by faith alone, but not by a dead faith. A true faith always produces good works. This is the biblical teaching on justification.
Saving Faith Is Accompanied By Works
James tells us that faith apart from works is dead. On the other side of the coin, the apostle Paul tells us that the Holy Spirit produces the fruit of the spirit in us.
Galatians 5:22-23 reads, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
This means that when we are saved by grace through faith in Christ, the Holy Spirit begins to produce His fruit in our lives. This fruit is not the result of our own efforts. It is the work of the Holy Spirit in us.
The apostle Paul goes on to say in Galatians 5:24-25, “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.”
In other words, as we walk by the Spirit, we will produce the fruit of the Spirit. This is what it means to live a Christian life. It is not something we do in our own strength. Rather, it is something that God does in and through us by His Spirit.
Therefore, a saving faith will always be accompanied by good works. As we walk by the Spirit, He will produce His fruit in our lives. This is the biblical teaching on sanctification.
Why Do Good Works Matter To God?
If we are saved by faith alone, why do good works matter to God? Several very important reasons.
• Good works glorify God. When we do good works, people see God at work in us and give Him the glory.
• Good works prove that we have been truly saved. As James says, faith without works is dead. If our faith does not produce good works, it is not a saving faith. It is a dead faith.
• Good works are the evidence of our love for God. If we truly love God, we will obey His commands (John 14:15). Good works are the proof that we love God.
• Good works bless others and build up the body of Christ. As we serve one another in love, the body of Christ is edified and strengthened.
• Good works will one day be rewarded. Jesus said in Matthew 25:14-30 that He will reward His people according to their works. This does not mean that we are saved by our works. Rather, it means that our works will evidence our salvation, and they will be rewarded accordingly.
Therefore, good works are important to God because they glorify Him, prove our salvation, evidence our love for Him, build up the body of Christ, and will one day be rewarded.
Bible Verses About Faith Without Works Is Dead
James 2:14-15 - What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food.
James 2:17-18 - In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
Galatians 5:6 - For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.
Matthew 7:21 - “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
1 John 3:7-8 - Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. The one who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 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 3:10 - This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not God’s child, nor is anyone who does not love their brother and sister.”
Q: What’s the meaning of the scripture “faith without works is dead?”
A: The meaning of this scripture is that faith alone cannot save you. Good works are necessary in order to be saved.
Q: What are some good works that we can do?

Just by his opening statements, I wonder if this guy is telling the truth that he was once catholic. If so, he surely did not know his faith. He is teaching the opposite of what the church teaches if not just an outright lie
Actually, it is your message here that is the heresy. For example, you claim that salvation is by faith alone and by following Scripture alone, but in this very claim you contradict the Scriptures, since the book of James clearly states that we are not saved by faith alone.
Perhaps it would be good to get your own faith in line with the Gospel and Scripture before claiming that others are wrong.
Faith alone - means that you have companionship with Jesus Christ listening and be obedient to the voice of Holly Spirit - thus doing a deeds that Father leads us to. Opposite to it is - to do the deeds we deem righteous to do -in order to please God - which is the catholic way. Bless you in the name of Jesus Christ.
@@BrUno-by1uh, you are certainly welcome to make up whatever definition you wish -- which in this case seems to be that "faith alone" means "faith plus works." Apparently "faith plus works" is good when you do it, but bad if Roman Catholics do. You can even misrepresent other people's beliefs in order to try to justify yourself, or attempt to make distinctions that really have no practical (or even real) difference. Whatever definition you invent, the fact is that Scripture CLEARLY and PLAINLY states that we are saved by works and NOT by faith alone (James 2).
There are difficulties with Roman Catholicism, but this is not really among them. Further, it is actually those who promote "sola fide" who are the demonstrable heretics here, and probably shouldn't go about trying to pluck the specks from others' eyes.
Great preaching‼️‼️thanks and keep telling truth wherever you go‼️💕💕😊😊😊
@@philoalethia I have been saved by God's Grace (unmerited favor) not BY my faith, but THROUGH faith. (Eph.2:8&9) If "sola fide" (God's word) is heresy, who or what would be your source of belief (?) Reply to James 2:14-26, Isa. 64:6 tells us all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags. My trust is in what Jesus did on the cross, he paid the price for what I did as a sinner.
@@lennyberg6675 Sola fide is not "God's word" as you claim, but a man-made heresy. The ONLY place in the Bible that has the phrase "faith alone" says that we are NOT saved by faith alone. Further, I doubt you will be able to articulate any meaningful difference between being saved by faith or through faith. Either way, you are claiming that your faith alone (in addition to God's grace) was necessary for your salvation -- no works of any kind. This is contrary to the teachings of Scripture and the early Christians who learned faith directly from Christ and the apostles.
So you are obviously free to believe whatever you want, but if you want to claim that Sola fide is from God, then you are just deceiving yourself and others.

He is talking about most churches teach to be saved you ask Jesus into your heart. Completely unbiblical. The gospel of Salvation is 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. ”Now brothers and sisters, let me remind you [once again] of the good news [of salvation] which I preached to you, which you welcomed and accepted and on which you stand [by faith]. By this faith you are saved [reborn from above-spiritually transformed, renewed, and set apart for His purpose], if you hold firmly to the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain [just superficially and without complete commitment]. For I passed on to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to [that which] the Scriptures [foretold], and that He was buried, and that He was [bodily] raised on the third day according to [that which] the Scriptures [foretold],“

Basically, believe in what Jesus did for you, that his blood atonement, his death, burial and resurrection paid the price for your sins. That is the Gospel. Just believe in Jesus.

Show me WHERE Jesus taught this in His Doctrine??? Show me WHERE the disciples/early church practiced THIS??? THIS IS PURE EVIL & WHY Christ literally said "YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN"
Luke 9:54 And when His disciples(prior to conversion )James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? 9:55 But He turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know NOT what manner of spirit ye are of. 9:56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them.
I do admire how well my Protestant friends know the Bible. However, all devout Catholics know it as well and are actually the ones who chose and compiled the books in the Bible. I’m sorry that you’ve never had a priest tell you to read the Bible (that’s awful!) but I have. If you go to mass every Sunday, you will have heard the entire Bible (all 73 books) in 3 years. If you read the Catholic Catechism. and the entire Bible for yourself and attend mass, I believe you will understand and see that the Catholic Church has a reason for every single tradition and action. Many Protestants have only been taught lies about the Catholic Church. Most of what this man is preaching is not true. He might have good intentions and believe what he is teaching is true or maybe he was poorly catechized by a lukewarm Catholic who doesn’t really know Jesus. I pray to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for ALL souls that we may all know God and make Him known. God Bless.
The catholic church (this was the universal church at the time, not the Roman Catholic Church, as it was not a distinct organization until after the Great Schism in 1054) did compile the Bible and I wish they would have submitted to it rather than adding traditions which undermine the scriptures.

@@TaylorJohnson1 The “universal church” Bible wasn’t the Roman Catholic Bible of today, if that is what you were cryptically suggesting. The seven deuterocanonical books that are in the Roman Catholic Bible today were not viewed as inspired when the Bible was compiled, but instead viewed as beneficial and were kept separate from the cannon until after the Protestant Reformation. The Protestant Bibles exclude those seven books for the same reasons the universal church did when they decided the cannon. The Bibles today are translated from earlier Greek source manuscripts found which those who translated the King James Bible didn’t have nor did St. Jerome have when he translated the Latin Vulgate. I am fine with the NKJ, NIV, ESV, NLT, ASV.
If our Lord Jesus Christ built His Church and Showered upon it the Holy Spirit to guide it and He will be with it until the end of time and the gates of hell will not overcome it and breathed upon his Apostles the Holy Spirit and gave them the authority to govern His Church here on earth and preach.the Good News to all nations....then first prove to us that the Church you are in now is the Church founded by Christ endowed by His Authority to shepered His flock. PROVE IT IN BIBLICAL AND IN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE!
What I find difficult is when I encourage them to read the Bible for themselves, I know we have different Bibles and I don’t want to accidentally encourage them to read their false doctrine. But they are not willing to read a different one. And the Catholic Bible on the YouVersion Bible app does still says, “She will bruise your head, and you will wait for her heal.”
And when you encourage them to read the Bible for themselves, which non-Catholic conclusion/gospel do you tell the is the correct one? Is it the ones that believe infant baptism is salvific or the ones that do not? Or full immersion or not? Is it the Liberal Evangelical version or the Conservative Evangelical version? Could it be a Calvinist or Armenian or Reformed or the Anglican viewpoint, Dispensationalism, Antinomianism? Those that believe in woman ordinations or same sex marriages? Lord’s supper symbolic or sacramental? The once saved always always saved group or the not? Should women keep silent in church or speak and is this with or without their heads covered? Maybe Mormons, JWs, SDA’s, Christadelphians, or the Oneness Pentecostals position as they too preach from the same bible also??? Surely you cannot think all these positions are acceptable. If not then which one is correct and why do you get to be the one to choose? Is yours the infallible one? If not then who really cares?
Reading the Bible, a shortened Protestant version, is what lead me to join the Catholic Church ⛪
Have you ever read:
John 6 - Eucharist is the actual Body & Blood of Jesus
Revelations 12 - Mary was coronated Queen, Mother of King Jesus, and is Mother of All Christians in the very last verse.
Baptism Saves us & Jesus went to Purgatory aka prison to preach to the souls of the dead - 1 Peter 3:18-21
These & so many other parts of the Bible just completely ignored by Protestant Pastors & left out of their sermons or totally twisted from the plain text reading of the passages.
Reading the Bible will lead anyone to the Catholic Church because it teaches things that are exclusively Catholic.
i'm watching your videos, and have come to the conclusion that you were never a practicing Catholic, or your catechesis was extremely lacking.
Purgatory+indulgences=very rich organization.

The Roman Road system was devised by an IFB decisional salvation preacher. Great verses, but not a complete gospel presentation. Many have gone through those verses, said yes to the appropriate questions, prayed that prayer by themselves, yet still have not repented/believed. They simply acknowledged facts, and asked for salvation without truly believing unto salvation.
