- The Difference Between Roman Catholicism And Christianity
This message is from our 2014 National Conference, Overcoming the World: Voddie Baucham: The World, the Flesh, and the Devil
To become a Christian is to be enlisted in a war, one that is fought on three main fronts. In this session, Rev. Voddie Baucham will remind us how the world, the flesh, and the devil work against the kingdom of God. He will explain why battle, struggle, and hardship should not surprise us as Christians.

Voddie is my new favorite pastor. He’s not afraid to speak the truth from the word of God 10/10
Jesus Christ is Lord and the only way to heaven ❤
Man, did Martin Luther do a number on Christians! But so did the Catholics at the Great Schizm.
Catholics 2000yrs of popes
There is only one true Gospel, it is simple to understand and to receive. It is free there is nothing you can do to buy it or work toward. It is a free gift from God through your faith in him. Faith alone offers you salvation through the grace of God alone. It is free to receive but it will cost you everything to pick up your cross and follow Christ. God bless you in your walk with Jesus.
Yes amen 🙏🏼
I say yes, it is simple while at the same time it is COUNTERINTUITIVE! We believe that nothing of real value is free, but this deal from God is! It goes counter to our work ethic culture!
So perfectly clear!! Thank you!!🙏🏼
I have viewed only a few of Mr. Beacham's video's, and I am THANKFUL, so very thankful I did. God bless you and yours!
Only one way, only one truth and only one life!!! This is the Gospel (the only Gospel).it’s NOT a religion, it’s a Blood relationship with Jesus Christ!!!
Get ready for persecution by the Roman Catholic Church for daring to believe otherwise!!!!
Please tell us why you feel like that,
You do know it’s a sin to bear false witness
Let’s see. Closer to todays times
Last year FBI targeting the Catholic Church.
Have you heard of the Bible riots?
Where American thought only white Protestants had rights 1844
Held by the nativist
During the colonization of America you wouldn’t let Jews, blacks or Catholic vote. Couldn’t own land.
1920 reformation of the KKK to go against Catholics
1926 Mexican Cristero war founded by KKK and Protestants.
Please tell us why you hate us so much or why you are so scared. Do you have the smallest idea of how your Bible was put together?
Very good sermon and absolutely spot on!!!
Voddie is the best. He is awesome.
Christ alone by faith alone Amen
🤔 I would like to know from which author / edition of the publishings of the Council of Trent that Dr. Baucham is reading. I ordered a copy of “The Canons and Decrees of the Council of Trent | Translated and Introduced by Reverend H.J. Schroeder” from Amazon, and I have it opened to Session VI, and read through both Chapters IX and XI - that’s how this book is laid out. While they were quick reads, they did not list the words “…let him be anathema.” So, I am asking for someone’s assistance i understanding this.
When you repent grâce is not enough you have tout improve yourself otherwise you are a hypocrite because improving is works. Jesus says what you haven't done you haven't done it to me what you have done to the smallest you have done to me. those are works.
I am really looking forward to Voddie’s sermon called “The difference between Calvinism and Christianity”. ☦️🙏🏼😇
Voddie is a Christian who is a Calvinist. Ex Arminian Calvinist
@@robertmcvicar5824
I am well aware of that. I was distinguishing Calvinism from Christianity, like he distinguished Roman Catholicism from Christianity.
☦️🙏🏼
@@st.christopher1155 Hi there like Voddie I'm a Christian who is a Calvinist ie that is someone who believes in the doctrines of grace. This is the true gospel. Roman Catholicism is not Christianity. It sounds as if you are saying that Calvinism is being compared to it it also false. Voddie is defender of the Reformed faith. Ex Arminian Calvinist.
@@robertmcvicar5824Calvinism is the true gospel? The disciples didn’t believe in Lord Calvin’s doctrine..he wasn’t born yet..
@@princeofpeaceproductions3506 Hi there my friend. I have never been a follower of John Calvin and have no intention of reading Calvin's institutes but I believe in the doctrines of grace which are called Calvinism. The Apostles believed in the doctrines of grace now called Calvinism which were in response to the 5points of Arminianism. Tulip is all through the scriptures. Doctrine is extremely important and could be the difference between Heaven and Hell. All truly born again Arminians have the truth in their hearts but their heads are wrong. Ex Arminian Calvinist.
Could someone explain the verse about how fath without works is dead? I dont believe we ourselves earn our salvation, but it seems as though there's something expected of us beyond just accepting verbally, and i dont think that distinction is made very clear often enough.
Eph 2:8,9 "For by grace we are saved thru faith, NOT of ourselves, NOT of works, so no one can boast. James 2 speaks of the believer PROVING their faith by right living. If you say you have faith and live like the devil, God is not mocked Gal 6:7, it is evident you do not undertsand or have grace. The "good works" do not save you, merely prove that you experienced the Holy Spirt and His conviction when we sin. Being"born again" is trusting Christ finished work for our salvation, and repenting from sin and selfishness in gratitude for what He has done for us. Catholics sometimes misinterpret being born again as being baptized. An infant has no knowlege of sin/need for salvation, and your parents baptizing you in a faith has nothing to do with YOUR faith. Each must choose Jesus on their own. Besides baptism being a work, obedience, but a work. The thief on the cross was not baptized, but Jesus said he is with Him in heaven. Keep seeking!
I look at it like this... Faith without works isn't real faith.
So there's saving, life transforming faith... And there's faith in name only.
Whenever you don’t understand a passage from scripture pray for discernment, pray to the Holy Spirit and always look what is said in more places as the Bible is full of wisdom. Try not to take anything out of context.
Matthew 4:4 “But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.”
Faith without works is dead meant that you can’t ask God for a mate and never leave your house. You have to go out to meet someone. God won’t bring the person to your door step. If you ask God for a job, you have to actually apply for one.
Faith without works is dead means that faith is like the body and the love of God poured into the heart of the believer is the soul (life) of faith. An intellectual faith which is void of that love is dead and therefore does not justify. This is why faith formed by the virtue of love(charity) justifies and is alive but faith not formed by love is worthless. The faith formed by charity is actually what voddie Beaucham rejects. This is what he condemns about the catholic church. The catholic church says that we aren't justified by a faith that does not contain the love of God being poured into our hearts. Catholics don't believe in faith plus works. We believe is being saved by a faith that contains the virtue of love not by the works of love.
Which is why I don’t understand Catholics are called Christian-
Learn true Bible interpretation, please.
Most of you aren't very enlightened
Preach!
Why is it that Jesus said you can believe in me and be saved, yet this 'false teacher' teaches that you have no say in being 'born again'. I used to think that way until someone pointed out to me that an unborn child is the one to decide he will be born! The mother, unless there are medical complications, does not decide when she will bring her child into the world, the baby does! He obviously doesn't have the words to explain why, but he definitely has a say as to when he will be born when everything is healthy and normal. Why, oh why, could it not be the same with the born again experience? Perhaps this is what the Lord meant when He said," the spirit moves and nobody knows where it comes from or where it goes!" A person for who the Holy Spirit moves, can, from his own heart and conscience, realize he is lost, drowning, dying in his own sin, reach out to God and ask to be saved!? John 1 is full of admonition to BELIEVE ON HIM who God sent and be saved! These reformers are wacked and turning the simple, yet powerful Gospel, into a pretzel. Why would the Lord say, "unless you become like little children,You CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD". Try explaining the silly TULIP nonsense to a kid and see what happens.
You do have to believe in Christ to be saved, but your utterly evil soul will never seek God on its own - He has to regenerate you first and give you a new heart and saving faith, The Holy Spirit convicts you and proves to you that you have no hope outside of what Jesus did for you on the Cross. God does it all, we are merely the beneficiaries of His free gift of grace. No one chooses God, no one seeks God. Our default destination is HELL, since we are utterly depraved and continually wicked. We only seek to sin farther and farther away from Him. Therefore, since we do not come to Him, He built a bridge to us. If being saved is dependent upon me choosing to believe and choosing to be saved, as if I could, then salvation would be of works - and salvation by works makes Jesus Christ out to be a liar.
"But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also."
- James 2:20-26
Justified before whom? God or men? God is the justifier of the ungodly...proper hermeneutics is necessary for an understanding as God doesn't contradict Himself.
@@dbrinson1691that was scripture word for word, so technically you are arguing with God? Correct?
BUT
What we shouldn’t do is misinterpret the scripture tho and believe that salvation is from works, we are JUSTIFIED by works before men and god. Salvation is a gift from god and can never be earned.
Abraham was faithful before he offered Isaac.
@@gregoryt8792 Would he still be faithful if he didn't offer Isaac? 🤔
Sorry, but Bible (particularly: Epistle of James) says that "faith without deeds/works is dead".
And Protestants' favorite quote:
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." - Ephesians 2:8-9
In the very nest verse says:
""For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." - Ephesians 2:10
Works are still a "part of the equation" and should not be taken out of it.
You are wrong! Works has nothing to do with SALVATION!
Salvation causes good works, that’s how I read that. Not the other way around. When you say “Protestants favorite quote”
That was scripture, Jesus’ favorite quote
We do good works that God has prepared in advance BECAUSE we are saved. NOT to be saved. Salvation is a free gift from God so if we have to do works to be saved, how is that a free gift? We don't pay somebody when they give us a birthday gift because then it is not a gift anymore. We don't 'pay' God anything for our salvation otherwise grace is no longer grace. We cannot do anything to earn our way to heaven because then that would give us reason to boast. If faith plus works are part of the equation as you believe, then do you think Jesus was lying to the thief on the cross when He told him, "Today you will be with Me in paradise." That thief could do no good works but he is now in heaven with Jesus his Savior.
In addition, how much works? A works Gospel is self justification, which is no Gospel. Who decides who does enough? That's a scary thought.
No question, faith without works is dead, but Salvation is a gift. Cannot be earned.
@@sanjoserock1 Try keeping your faith without doing works, I dare you! 😝
So, if Catholics aren't Christians, who was a Christian any time between 325 and 1517?
One day you can ask the around 50,000,000 who died at the hand of the antichrist (papacy) by beheading, draw and quartering, starvation, imprisonment and torture for 1260 years until Napoleon came and wounded the head of the Beast and so, the beast had to eventually "change" and use different tactics like Vatican II which just rewrites the Council of Trent. In other words, there was always true believers hiding in the wilderness. Obviously, there is much more to get into, but that about sums it up.
Orthodox
The Waldens
Oh, I've just recently heard that ever since the Apostles died, the Christianity isn't "true" anymore xD
As for Voddie: he clearly didn't do his homework 🙄🙄
You think that God doesn’t have the power and foresight to deliver those who want to really follow him?
As always, Catholic-hating protestant pastors misrepresenting and misinterpreting the teachings of the Catholic Church. They have thousands of scholars to draw from, even the Catechism itself, explaining in detail what's our doctrine on Grace and Faith, but they'd rather quote directly from a 500 yo document knowing most of the listeners won't understand a pip.
Catholics believe in collaboration of our actions with God's grace, like a boat that has to point its sails to the right direction to be moved by the "grace" of the wind, like a toddler learning to walk, who can only walk with the help of their father, but still has to move their legs.
In the end all is God's grace, but Our Lord wouldn't create automatons who have absolutely no sovereignty over their actions, like most Calvinist believe. It'd make it impossible to actually prove our love for Him, because without freedom there can be no proof of love. Our creation would be pointless.
Educate yourself.
Anyone who follows the Catholic system is walking a path to hell
So once we are saved, we don’t need to love or fear God anymore. So we allow Him to suffer even more for our salvation as we feel we can continue to commit every vile grave sin known to man and still go to heaven. In other words, we can continue to crucify Jesus more than would be necessary for our salvation knowing that we are saved no matter what. It is contemptuous of us on our part to escalate our sinning since He will pay the price anyway. This is a vile, demonic doctrine that some Protestants teach. It shows no care or love for the suffering servant(Jesus.) This illogicality is straight out the satan’s mouth.
Acts 2:38 ya’ll…”Peter said to them, Repent, and each of you be baptized for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” All require faith…repentance, baptism and receiving the Holy Spirit..after which continued faith and obedience is paramount. God requires you to make the 1st step and he will follow thru with grace. When we act on our own genuine volition noticed by him then, he extends grace. Amen.
You can't make the first step you are Dead!
God moves first order of salvation
There isn't a difference. Roman Catholicism IS Christianity, just as protestantism is too.
Roman Catholicism doctrine contradicts God's word. We believe God, not man.
I take your point Melody: I'm a Scottish Protestant Presbyterian so I know where you are coming from.
@@angusmillar1106 I'm a Southern Baptist just like Dr. Voddie Baucham, I take the Reformed view . I love my Presbyterian brethren, and I love John Knox!
@@melodybarbour3218amen
Not much difference between Calvinism and Catholicism in the end, assurance that your elect can only come from works… no way you can be sure that God has elected you , if we are totally dead how can we know if God has truly made us alive, only by works..there is no assurance of salvation in Calvinism or Catholicism
1 John reveals how you can know if you’re saved
Catholics believe we are saved by grace
@@PInk77W1Catholics that follow the Catholic system are NOT saved
Council of Trent Session 6 canon 9- check it with James 2:24.
Faith alone is contradicted by the Bible.
Peace.
Romans 4:4-5 contradicts the traditions of man. Peace.
“Now to the one who works, his wages are not counted as a gift but as his due. And to the one who does not work but believes in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness,”
Romans 4:4-5 ESV
Amen! It certainly doesn’t teach faith alone so it contradicts that tradition of man:)
@@nickswicegood4316 Verse 5 is faith alone...the one who believes and does not work.
Don't keep trying to work for your salvation. Hell is truth seen too late, my friend.
It’s a bad idea to add words to scripture my friend.
Just because Paul uses the word “works” it’s a non sequitor to assume he means “any and all works” . The context is clear from 3:28 that he is referring to “works of the law”, and specifically, circumscision.
So, are we justified by faith alone? James 2:24 clearly no. We are justified by faith and works. Any works? Romans 3:28 clearly no. Not works of the law. Not works of darkness/evil works either. What kinds of works? Works of love.
“For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love.”
Galatians 5:6 ESV
And if you’re unsure about what “faith working through love” refers to, see Paul again here, using the same statement as Galatians 5:6
“For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God.”
1 Corinthians 7:19 ESV
So “faith working through love” is equal to “keeping the commandments of God”
Peace.
We don't condem anyone but this teaching of your may God rebeak the evil spirit in you
How is he condemning anyone? He did not write the Bible.
Steve Lawson also great although i think he might cling to ridiculous premillennialism
Wait, why is premillenialism "ridiculous"?
He also clings to ridiculous Calvinism and mocks those who truly cling to Christ Jesus.
@@st.christopher1155
Calvinists cling to Christ Jesus
