Allie, I'm grateful for you having these discussions. I was Anti-Catholic a year ago and thought you owned George Farmer. But that debate got me interested in researching Catholicism. Fast forward, and just 5 weeks ago I was confirmed Catholic at the Easter Vigil.

@@botanicamelancholia RCC re-sacrifices Christ every mass and in the end Jesus is still not enough because of the invented safety net of purgatory. Jesus sacrifice on the cross wasn't enough for RCC. God said do not drink physical blood, but they believe in the doctrine of transubstantiation that when you consume the bread and wine it LITTEARLY transmutates into blood and flesh. Then they all pray to Mary when Jesus told us WHO to pray to and its not his mom. They glorify her beyond what the Bible says and make graven images of her and invented entire doctrines around her......don't get fooled by their one true church narrative and proof texting matthew 16 18 to give themselves false authority.

@jsharp9735 You should read Ignatius, Justin Martyr and Iraneous. You'll find that the "invented doctrines" from when "Rome appropriated Christianity" are actually incredibly early and predate any consolidation of the scriptures. Ignatius, for example, literally says: *Especially [will I do this] if the Lord make known to me that ye come togetherman by man in common through grace, individually, in one faith, and in Jesus Christ, who was of the seed of David according to the flesh, being both the Son of man and the Son of God, so that ye obey the bishop and the presbytery with an undivided mind, breaking one and the same bread, which is the medicine of immortality, and the antidote to prevent us from dying, but [which causes] that we should live for ever in Jesus Christ.* Or *It is becoming, therefore, that ye also should be obedient to your bishop, and contradict him in nothing; for it is a fearful thing to contradict any such person. For no one does [by such conduct] deceive him that is visible, but does [in reality] seek to mock Him that is invisible, who, however, cannot be mocked by any one.* Seriously, Ignatius tells the Christians to be unified with and obedient to the Bishop over and over and over again. The authority of the episcopacy is indisputable in the early (and oppressed) church

Born as a Muslim, found Christ. Became Protestant Christian, till I noticed various disagreements within the Protestant Church. I knew something was wrong. But I knew one thing, that Christ must have left us a true Church, because the Bible often warns against false teachings. I just knew deep down that God will not leave us like lost sheep. After 2.5 years, I am convinced that the Catholic Church is the Church that Jesus left us. Last December I joined the Catholic Church and will remain in it until my last breath. Thank you God for everything.

I was raised protestant. I grew up in a southern Baptist Church and my grandfather was a Pentecostal preacher for over 50 years. So I’ve been to many of those churches as well. I was just confirmed Catholic last month. I’ve never been happier. There was something missing For me in the churches that I grew up in. I live in the deep south so me becoming Catholic does not sit well with people. They get very rude, defensive, and argumentative when I speak about anything I do with the Catholic Church. But it is not going to stop me, I am so glad I came home to the one true church. Adore mother Mary. I have such a connection with her and Saint Gabriel.

I'm also a Catholic convert living in the South and I well know what you mean when you say becoming Catholic does not sit well with people. I live in a Southern state that has fewer Catholics per capita than any state in the Union so we 'gotta own it' when it comes to our Catholic faith. Becoming Catholic is the greatest joy and best decision I've made in my Christian life. Let nothing stop you. I too am glad you came home to the one true church. God bless!

I’m a Catholic revert. I turned my back on Catholicism years ago and went to a Pentecostal church for about 10 years. I eventually got tired of the rock concerts and pastors screaming into the microphone approach. I found that as I got older I needed a quieter more reverent way to worship and that’s what the Catholic Church offers, worship, adoration and reverence for Jesus. I believe God led me back to the one true Church. As I delved deeper into Catholicism, I discovered many misconceptions and my faith grew stronger. I’m proud to be a Catholic. Thank you Jesus. ✝️🙏🏻

I have been a Music Director in many different protestant churches: United Methodist, Universalist Unitarian, Presbyterian, Epicopal. At each church I met wonderful people who love Jesus and I would do my best to understand how each faith was unique so I could do my part contributing to worship through music. When I started singing at a Catholic Church as a Cantor, my heart transformed in the most amazing way, and I am convicted that the Catholic Church is the true church and the most full expression of faith for followers of Jesus Christ. I know Jesus more deeply through the Rosary, Mother Mary, The Saints, Angels, and the understanding of the Eucharist as Jesus's Body. I realized that protestant churches are missing these important aspects that draw us close to Jesus and therefore most of them embrace new age spirituality as they are still hungry for our Lord. Since joining the Catholic Church, I have come to understand the Eucharist as the most important part of our faith and have renounced all forms of new age spirituality.

****One "eats" God's Word by believing it and meditating upon it: Isaiah 51:16 "I (the Lord) have put my words in your mouth ...". Ezekiel 3:1 "... eat this scroll and go and speak to the House of Israel". Jeremiah 15:16 "Your words were found and I did eat them ..." Revelation 10:10 " I (John) took the little book out of the angel's hand and ate it". >>>> www.desiringgod.org/articles/what-jesus-meant-when-he-said-you-must-eat-my-flesh -What Jesus Meant When He Said, “You Must Eat My Flesh" The day before, Jesus had fed 5,000 people with a few loaves and fish. Then that night he walked miles across the Sea of Galilee before catching up with his disciples in their boat. The crowd had seen him send his disciples away in the only boat available. So the next day, when they found him in Capernaum, they knew he could have only got there miraculously. They wanted him to be their king. Then he went and ruined everything. To his adoring fans Jesus said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you are seeking me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves.*** Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on him God the Father has set his seal.” (John 6:26-27) More Than Bread But wanting the blessings Jesus provides is not the same thing as believing in him. Indeed, Jesus had come to give them bread from heaven. But not that kind of bread. ****So, to test them, he began to make statements that sounded very strange. He told them that he was the true bread from heaven that gives life to the world, and whoever eats this bread would live forever. “Jesus had come to give them bread from heaven. But not the kind of bread they were looking for.” ***Then he said, “And the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh” (John 6:51). This sounded like cannibalism. His listeners balked. He pressed it even further: “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.” (John 6:53-55) The “Jesus for King” campaign evaporated. The people walked away, shaking their heads. The crazy man wants us to eat his flesh! They completely misunderstood what Jesus was saying. So what did he mean? Here are the clues: How do you labor for the food that endures to eternal life? Believe in me! (John 6:27, 29) “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me [in faith] shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.” (John 6:35) “For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.” (John 6:40) “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes has eternal life.” (John 6:47) Eating Is Believing ****For Jesus, eating is believing; drinking is believing. He promises eternal life to those who believe in him. Believe what? Believe that his death - the breaking of his body and spilling of his blood - pays in full the penalty for our sin, and that his perfect righteousness is freely given to us in exchange for our unrighteousness. “Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper because he did not want us to forget the very core of what we believe.” Believing this is how we “eat” Jesus’ flesh and “drink” his blood. This is why he instituted the Lord’s Supper: he did not want us to forget the very core of what we believe. ****When the crowd took offense at his gruesome talk, Jesus exposed their unbelief: “The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. But there are some of you who do not believe” (John 6:63-64). WHy did they walk a way??? Let’s you and I be like Peter. He didn’t walk away, but instead said to Jesus, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life, and we have believed, and have come to know, that you are the Holy One of God” (John 6:68-69). >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Communion How do you labor for the food that endures to eternal life?

@mitchellosmer1293 I agree with most of that list. Well done for compiling it. One thing, though, ALL the days that God gives are days of worship. No, Jesus did not teach anything about changing "the day of worship", but neither did he teach anything about any "day of worship". I know you mean the Sabbath, of course. Prety much all of Jesus's teaching about the Sabbath day went against the legalism of the Pharisees. Jesus came to fulfill the law. For Christians, the law is summed up in three commandments: love God, love your neighbour and love one another (I.e. amongst the believers).

It was amazing!

Good! keep saying the rosary ! The rosary have no Salvation, it is religious spirits, when I experienced the holy spirit my eyes were open and I said, Lord all these years Mary! The rosary! why not you? Did I expect an answer? But I heard very clearly, he said , I see you practising patience and diligence, I burst out laughing , yes you are right lord! we are practicing patience , waiting patiently for answered that never came and diligently doing it over and over again. Memorising a rosary cannot get any one into heaven, it’s not to what you do it is what Jesus did on the cross, that is grace, Mary has no part in anyone’s Salvation, that is doctrine that comes from the teaching of the Catholic Church . I come from A catholic background, I still attend mass ,at the Catholic Church, but I attend especially to ask others , they like if I pray for them, I find them always receptive In receiving prayers . I would say, if you kneel down, close your eyes and pray with all heart your mind your soul and your strength believing you receive it , God will answer your prayers. He doesn’t answer prayers that is of repetition , if you want to know how to pray, read the palms, David poured out his heart to the God of Israel , how he felt and what was going on in his life. God already know all, but he wants us to come to him. I saw and I know the difference. I read the old Testament and I would spend hours in the morning talking to the Lord, what is the church teaching Lord ? what did the Catholic priest read to know you ? , I was angry! I knew about Jesus but I did not know him personally, I later realise he wants us to know him personally or I would end up in hell. He began to stir my heart and I did not know where I can go it worst yet who can I talk to , I did not know the Bible I did nkt know the Word of God , I thought maybe I should go to the Catholic Church and talk to some one , but I heard a very Stern voice , No Not There ! I thought? , so where then ? Foolishly I went all the way to the Vatican . Lots of people queueing … I realised no it’s not here. I stayed with a friend unknowingly she was Buddhist ! Goodness ! I returned to London not knowing where to go , later I realised we look for God In the garbage bins . Yoga, we join new age Buddhist. But none satisfy , only Jesus satisfy . Our longing. The Holy Spirit led me to Holy Trinity Brompton in London, and on Pentecost Sunday2002 he catapult into heat seeking missile. That is over 20 years ago and he has held my gaze ,I don’t concentrate on any thing for long, but with the Holy Spirit 24/7 he is my thought Word and deed , and I encourage others, so please read the Bible. The rosary would lead you to hell read the Bible! The rosary is NOT biblical and see for yourself. GOD would not accept anyone or share his glory with anyone, ir any idol , if you call Mary his mother, the relationship between Mary and Jesus changed , it was not about Mary but we can learn from Mary her obedience is beyond . . Why Did Jesus say in LUKE , 11:27-28 true blessedness 27 As he was speaking, a woman in the crowd called out, “God bless your mother-the womb from which you came, and the breasts that nursed you!” 28 Jesus replied, “But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.” This is Salvation ! not the rosary. It is a religious spirit! when I was throwing my rosary away it tugged at my heartstring, I reached to pick it up and I heard leave it very stern ! Jesus said my sheep hear my voice and they listen . There is a battle for souls and Satan and his demons are going all out. The one true church are the believers in Christ, spiritual Israel , we are grafted in into the one Church. And it not religion but relationship. . The church is build by God’s own hand. When my faith is threaten , I know Jesus prays for me, just as he told Peter , Satan asked to sift you like sand but I have prayed for you. Can that which is small contain that which is Big ? God longs to give us his Holy Spirit to empower us, he knows without his Holy Spirit we are toast in Satan hands , he wants to be strong. Mary can’t give us the Holy Spirit , the Holy Spirit give us translation when we read the Bible then he gives us revelation then we got transformation. Into a new creation. In Christ call Born Again , he removes our sin as far as the east is from the west and remember them no more . This scripture cancels our purgatory , WARNING ! purgatory is adding to God’s Word that has serious consequences. The Catholic Church want to take away Eph , 2:8-9 for it by grace through faith we are saved, it is a gift from God , not works, ( indulgences ) not of our selves (we can’t earn salvation ) SO NO ONE CAN BOAST ! Written in stone ! 1tim 2:5 for there is only ONE GOD and ONE MEDIATOR between God and mankind the Man Christ Jesus , who gave himself as a ransom for all . And we don’t need a Pope , the priesthood was done away with when Jesus died on the cross , the Jewish priesthood came to an end AD70 when Jerusalem was destroyed . Jesus became our high priest . Hebrew 4:14:16 Jesus The Great High Priest! 14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven,[a] Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are-yet he did not sin. #16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.# We don’t need to ask the dead to pray for the living , God gave us his Holy Spirit never to be alone. . All who are joining the Catholic Church are looking for religion , I did not have to leave the catholic church but I have freedom in Christ to go to any church and listen to the word of God , I hardly attend the Catholic Church , because I now know Jesus personally, I have a personal relationship with my Heavenly Father through the Holy Spirit in Jesus name. I know it’s the believers in Christ who are the church not religion. That is his Church he is building a people of power a people who are called by his name … Christian. Not all Christians are Christians . I’m speaking of spiritual Christians. God is Spirit and he is looking for people who will worship him in spirit and in truth. Not through religion ! One question if the Catholic Church is the true church why was people stragjez and killed for teaching the Bible to children . Today Catholics still don’t read and study God’s Word believe snd obey , they listen to doctrine believe and live but it . That has no salvation ….that is scary! Salvation is real experience . Hell is real there is no turning back your name is written in the book of life there is One heaven and it our father who art I heaven not hail Mary. Mary in the Bible is not the. One the catholic church teaches . Don’t take my word for it . Read the BIBLE FROM Genesis to revelation .its the Holy Spirit who will translation,if Gods Word then he give you revelation and you believe, he transforms you, into a new creation in Christ , called Born Again, now you know truth , and the truth sets you free , the Holy Spirit brings freedom and relationship with God in the name of Jesus , this make Christianity different from religion. Only Hod gives the jolt spirit no priest can declare you are born again without the evidence of the manifestation of the Holy Spirit . Whew!

@@amoyjoyce1117 the Rosary is a deep meditation of the 4 Gospels centered in the Life & Actions of Jesus Christ using words which come directly from the Gospel. No one can have a relationship with someone they don't know and it's impossible for someone praying the Rosary NOT to get to know Jesus on a much deeper level. Reading the Gospels is one thing - like jet skiing on the Ocean & Mediating on the Gospels using the Rosary is quit another - like scuba diving in the Ocean. If someone wants to truly KNOW Jesus, they ought to do both daily!!! I think Satan Loves it when he's succeeded in convincing people, like the way I was raised to believe, that the Rosary is evil.

He did, however, go briefly into why it doesn't have to be in the Bible for it to be a licit practice. It does not contradict scripture and our view of Mary and her role comes from deductions from scripture. I would recommend reading Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary by Brant Pitre if you're interested in a super in depth study of why Catholics believe in asking Mary for prayers. Regardless of your view of Mary, it is an interesting book to show you the practice doesn't come out of thin air.

@@cindybeltran992 Yes, I wish that they had time to go into the details more. There are many reasons why Catholics venerate Mary. While it is true there is not an explicit command in the Bible to ask Mary (or any Saint, for that matter) to pray for us, there are ways that Catholics deduce the special role of Mary from scripture. Just as Trent briefly pointed out in this video, we are also not explicitly told we ought to pray to the Holy Spirit, but many Protestants and Catholics do (and rightly so because of deduction). The Catholic view of Mary is rooted in Sacred Tradition, Jewish views on the Queen Mother, and interpretation of different passages of scripture (usually you'll hear Catholics discuss John 2:1-11, John 19:25-27, and Revelation 12). As I stated above, these scriptures don't explicitly tell us to pray to Mary, but Catholics use them to deduce certain things about Mary & the Saints. I would encourage you to read Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary by Brant Pitre if you're interested in how the Church has historically viewed Mary and why. If you don't want to do that, Trent's channel is always helpful as is Joe Heschmeyer's (Shameless Popery). It did not come out of nowhere! Everything Catholics believe about Mary reveals something about Jesus and His divine nature. We don't venerate Mary because she's a deity or has any power of her own, but because of what she tells us about Christ, His holiness, His Majesty, and His love! It might also be helpful to know that there have been Catholics who were even excommunicated for taking their veneration of Mary too far (see Collyridianism)...so there is definitely a line for us Catholics. Mary is an infinitesimal creature when compared to the one Holy and Sovereign God of the Universe!

TO ALL NON-CATHOLICS: keep in mind Catholicism is not a Christian. Why? They teach a false gospel. Catholic path to salvation: ccc 2068 Biblical gospel: Acts 16:30-33, Eph 2:8-9 and Eph 1:13. Do not partner and be yoked with unbelievers. See them as Muslims or Mormons, etc. Love them with the true gospel and stand firm against the wiles of the devil. Her fruits are evil because she runs after a strange god. Now to Mary: Aside from worshipping the images of Mary, what other honors and attributes are heaped upon her by Catholics? Mary was made as the mediatrix (Catechism on True Devotion to Mary, .17) She was not tainted with sin (Glories and Virtues of Mary, p. 26) Its faster and more effective to ask help in her name than in the name of Jesus (Ibid., p. 201) God is subject to her (True devotions to Mary, p.9) The confusing teachings of the Catholic Church regarding Mary are made more prominent in the following: "Through her divine maternity, Mary in a certain way entered the divine family as a spouse who enters a royal home. With regard to the Father she became the first born daughter: I came out of the mouth of the Most High, the first-born before all creatures (Ecclus 24:5). With regard to the Son, she was a mother; with regard to the Holy Spirit, she was a bride." (Glories and Virtues of Mary, p. 43) The Catholic beliefs quoted above state the confusing supposed relationship of Mary to the so-called Trinity. She is said to be the first born daughter of God the Father, the Mother of "God the Son" and the spouse of "God the Holy Spirit." But, does the Bible conform to these teachings? Contradictions to biblical truth The Holy Bible makes it certain that there is only one mediator between God and man. In 1 Timothy 2:5 this is written: "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (New International Version) Christ is the only One placed and purposed by God to be the Mediator between Him (God) and men. The Bible never teaches that Mary is the mediatrix. It is not true that Mary was without sin because, according to the Bible, all men have sinned (Rom. 3:23) and the only One who did not commit sin is the Lord Jesus Christ (I Pt. 2:21-22) The belief of the Catholic Church that it is much easier to ask anything in the name of Mary is unbiblical. In John 15:16, the Lord Jesus said to His apostles: "...whatever you ask of the Father in My name, He may give you." (New King James Version) Not in the name of Mary or anyone else can true Christians ask for anything from God but only in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. To teach that God is subject to Mary is blasphemous. The Scriptures teach that the Father is the One who is above all, not Mary: "One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all." (Eph. 4:6, Ibid.) Likewise, the Catholic doctrine that Mary is allegedly the mother of God (whom Catholics believe to be Christ Himself) contradicts the truth written in Psalms 90:2 that God has no beginning, that He is neither man nor the son of man (Num. 23:19). The Bible does not call Mary the mother of God but was introduced as the mother of Jesus (Acts 1:14), the two (God and Christ) being different and distinct from each other. Even the teaching that Mary is allegedly the daughter, mother and spouse of the three persons in the Trinity is unfounded and likewise a blasphemy against God. The true God does not consist of three persons. He is absolute in oneness and a spirit in nature (Is. 45:21; Jn. 4:24). He does not recognize any other god beside Himself (Is. 44:8; 45:21). On the other hand, Mary praised the Lord. She also recognized that God is her Savior. She herself said that she is a servant of the Lord. (Lk 1:38). She likewise declared: ""My heart praises the Lord; my soul is glad because of God my Savior" (Lk. 1:38, Todays English Version). Therefore, it is not proper to worship Mary. It is improper to pray to her and ask for ones needs. Worshipping her would be going against the teachings of the Holy Scriptures and is a downright rejection of the true God.

Hi Allie, Thanks for your show. I am a Catholic and I was interested to hear your conversation with Trent Horn about Mary in the Catholic church. I didn't hear your first debate with him, so he may have said some of these things to you already, but I had a few thoughts about it. One is to just take a look at what the rosary actually is. Setting aside the debate about whether one should pray to Mary and looking just at what the prayers of the rosary are; they are biblical. The Our Father prayer that Jesus gave us. The Hail Mary is: Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is With Thee (Luke 1:28, the angelic greeting to Mary at the anunciation) Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus ("all generations shall call me blessed" Luke 1:48, this prayer points us to Jesus) (The next part is a flowery way of asking her to pray for us:) Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death, Amen. In the book of John, at the death of Jesus, Jesus gives Mary to John as his Mother. (John 19: 25-27) As Catholics we say that in that moment he gave Mary to the entire human race as her spiritual children. So that is a biblical reason for venerating Mary. Who more should we venerate than our mother? Who more could we ask for help than our mother? Catholics believe that Mary was part of the plan of God's divine order of grace in this way from the beginning, that when she said yes at the annunciation, she was saying yes to all of God's plan for her without completely knowing what that might be in it's totality. Just a humble yes of surrender to God's will, including all the unknown that would happen in Jesus crucifixion and the yet to be revealed role that God had in mind for her in the salvation of the whole world. You sight the verses in which Jesus says "who are my mother, brother and sister. those who do the Father's will." Who more did the Father's will than Mary? It's might seem at first like he is brushing her off, but I have heard it preached that he was teaching her what her new role would be in the kingdom by showing what God's plan for her would be after the resurrection. That during his ministry he was preparing her for her role that she would be given as spiritual mother to us by showing her that her role was bigger than just his earthly mother. Another reference to Mary as queen of heaven is in Revelation where it talks about a woman clothed with the sun with a crown of 12 stars on her head. Also the woman is being pursued by the beast who wants to destroy her child at its birth and she is taken into the desert until God's glory. So, in thinking about your question about the language of the Hail, Holy Queen prayer, -"our life, our sweetnes and our hope", I think it is more of a sweet tenderness of children toward their mother than a strict theological statement. Kind of like how people have names for their dear ones like "honey", "my love", "sweetie" or in Spanish people say "mi vida" to a loved one, which means "my life". Thanks for your interest in Catholicism and thanks for your time if you read this. I enjoyed your show. God bless you and your family.
@clairesallyroos9690Ай бұрын
The Bible makes only one reference to "The Queen of Heaven" and it's to warn Christians against those who pray to her because she is a pagan goddess. If I'm not mistaken, that is in fact in Revelation. The woman with child in Revelation is symbolic of the Church of the end times, and the nation of Israel in history. Nowhere is the woman with the twelve stars called the "Queen of Heaven." The rosary also says things to Mary like, "You are my light and my life." Those are words reserved for Jesus. Mary is not our light nor our life. She is dead. Speaking to her is necromancy. Plain and simple. Having statues of her that we burn candles to and put down flowers for is idolatry. She is blessed, yes, just like all the other people in Matthew 5, the sermon on the mount. That's still no justification to put her on some special pedestal. Christ intercedes for us already at the throne of God. Also, we are seated WITH CHRIST in heavenly places. Why would we ever need Mary to relay/carry/amplify our prayers to God? It's completely and utterly unbiblical.

That root is related to Venus, which, as a proper noun, is the name of the Roman goddess of love and beauty. >>> @mikekayanderson408 4 months ago By addressing her - Mary - you are praying to her. “ come to my help” praying to her! “ I place my eternal salvation in your hands”. Praying to her. Please stop the charade! You pray to Mary. You elevate her to a divine position. You praise her. You worship her. Please stop denying this fact. I went into a cave at the roadside when I was travelling around the Republic of Ireland. It was full of statues of Mary and others saints too I guess The odd cross. Lots of notes and letters left behind. Mostly to Mary. It did not look in the least bit Christian but like some pagan shrine - it gave me the creeps. You couldn’t drive very far without seeing a statue of Mary. In the Catholic Church Mary has replaced Christ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CCC #2679 Mary is the perfect Orans (pray-er), a figure of the Church. When we pray to her, we are adhering with her to the plan of the Father, who sends his Son to save all men. Like the beloved disciple we welcome Jesus' mother into our homes, for she has become the mother of all the living. We can pray with and to her. The prayer of the Church is sustained by the prayer of Mary and united with it in hope. Yet, Catholics insist they do not pray to Mary!!!

Two decades after leaving behind my Jehovah's Witness upbringing and becoming agnostic, I became a Catholic this Easter Vigil. Every day I'm filled with gratitude to God for discovering a spiritual home rooted in tradition, history, and deep theological teachings. As a newcomer to Catholicism, I've come to realize that some of these teachings can be misunderstood, and I appreciate forums like Allie's channel where Christians engage in respectful and thought-provoking debates. Trent's discussions have helped me grasp some of the finer points and nuances of my newfound faith. I like to say my RCIA class and fr. Mike Schmidt's Catechism in a year were instrumental in laying a solid foundation for my Catechization and I received much needed reinforcing of my understanding of Catholic doctrine through Trent's debates. I'm immensely grateful for the support and resources that have guided me on this journey. May God continue to bless us all as we deepen our understanding and commitment to our faith and understanding of each other.

TO ALL NON-CATHOLICS: keep in mind Catholicism is not a Christian. Why? They teach a false gospel. Catholic path to salvation: ccc 2068 Biblical gospel: Acts 16:30-33, Eph 2:8-9 and Eph 1:13. Do not partner and be yoked with unbelievers. See them as Muslims or Mormons, etc. Love them with the true gospel and stand firm against the wiles of the devil. Her fruits are evil because she runs after a strange god. Now to Mary: Aside from worshipping the images of Mary, what other honors and attributes are heaped upon her by Catholics? Mary was made as the mediatrix (Catechism on True Devotion to Mary, .17) She was not tainted with sin (Glories and Virtues of Mary, p. 26) Its faster and more effective to ask help in her name than in the name of Jesus (Ibid., p. 201) God is subject to her (True devotions to Mary, p.9) The confusing teachings of the Catholic Church regarding Mary are made more prominent in the following: "Through her divine maternity, Mary in a certain way entered the divine family as a spouse who enters a royal home. With regard to the Father she became the first born daughter: I came out of the mouth of the Most High, the first-born before all creatures (Ecclus 24:5). With regard to the Son, she was a mother; with regard to the Holy Spirit, she was a bride." (Glories and Virtues of Mary, p. 43) The Catholic beliefs quoted above state the confusing supposed relationship of Mary to the so-called Trinity. She is said to be the first born daughter of God the Father, the Mother of "God the Son" and the spouse of "God the Holy Spirit." But, does the Bible conform to these teachings? Contradictions to biblical truth The Holy Bible makes it certain that there is only one mediator between God and man. In 1 Timothy 2:5 this is written: "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (New International Version) Christ is the only One placed and purposed by God to be the Mediator between Him (God) and men. The Bible never teaches that Mary is the mediatrix. It is not true that Mary was without sin because, according to the Bible, all men have sinned (Rom. 3:23) and the only One who did not commit sin is the Lord Jesus Christ (I Pt. 2:21-22) The belief of the Catholic Church that it is much easier to ask anything in the name of Mary is unbiblical. In John 15:16, the Lord Jesus said to His apostles: "...whatever you ask of the Father in My name, He may give you." (New King James Version) Not in the name of Mary or anyone else can true Christians ask for anything from God but only in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. To teach that God is subject to Mary is blasphemous. The Scriptures teach that the Father is the One who is above all, not Mary: "One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all." (Eph. 4:6, Ibid.) Likewise, the Catholic doctrine that Mary is allegedly the mother of God (whom Catholics believe to be Christ Himself) contradicts the truth written in Psalms 90:2 that God has no beginning, that He is neither man nor the son of man (Num. 23:19). The Bible does not call Mary the mother of God but was introduced as the mother of Jesus (Acts 1:14), the two (God and Christ) being different and distinct from each other. Even the teaching that Mary is allegedly the daughter, mother and spouse of the three persons in the Trinity is unfounded and likewise a blasphemy against God. The true God does not consist of three persons. He is absolute in oneness and a spirit in nature (Is. 45:21; Jn. 4:24). He does not recognize any other god beside Himself (Is. 44:8; 45:21). On the other hand, Mary praised the Lord. She also recognized that God is her Savior. She herself said that she is a servant of the Lord. (Lk 1:38). She likewise declared: ""My heart praises the Lord; my soul is glad because of God my Savior" (Lk. 1:38, Todays English Version). Therefore, it is not proper to worship Mary. It is improper to pray to her and ask for ones needs. Worshipping her would be going against the teachings of the Holy Scriptures and is a downright rejection of the true God.

MAKES NO SENSE Also it is stated in the Bible not to communicate with the dead, of course we don’t talk to death relatives READ BELOW 1 Chronicles 10:13-14 ESV / 176 helpful votes So Saul died for his breach of faith. He broke faith with the Lord in that he did not keep the command of the Lord, and also consulted a medium, seeking guidance. He did not seek guidance from the Lord. Therefore the Lord put him to death and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse. Ecclesiastes 9:5 ESV / 172 helpful votes For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing, and they have no more reward, for the memory of them is forgotten.

I was considered Catholic. Did my first communion. But never went to church throughout my twenties. I said I would believe in God but I didn’t KNOW God. I hit a low point in my life and just opened a Bible app and found Jesus. I wanted to start going to church and I just ended up in a Christian church. Even though it’s still church and people are all loving… something was missing. I think it was the culture. Like… it’s so plain. There’s no art and beauty in Divinity displayed. It was just straight scripture and pastors (performers). I liked it but I felt DEEP judgement too whenever I got rebuked. I was like… I understand we gotta be as Godly as possible but dang… I’d get rebuked for having ONE beer and posting it on Instagram. You know what I mean ? I just feel a lot of condemnation from people in Protestant churches. In Catholic Churches, there’s less judgement because we all know we’ll never be Jesus. You just really feel the forgiveness. But don’t get me wrong… my convictions are way more intense now in Catholicism. Because seeing Jesus on that cross just really reminds me that He died for my dumb ass and I’m still acting a fool.

I was so anti Catholic, anti Catholic books, until one day, I decided to read Catholic books from Catholic sources and found out that Protestants do not understand actually what Catholics really believe, nor do they know the entire biblical bases for their beliefs, they’re missing books, and then I learned these two words ‘Latria’ and ‘Dulia’, I mean, really learned them, then searched for Catholic answers about their biblical bases for these words, I studied why the 10 commandments of the Catholic was different and who changed it, and then I started googling, who started the first Baptist church, who started the first non denominational, who started the first Protestant church, first Anglican, and learned about king Henry the 8th (killing multiple wives, jailing the head priest of England for life) and about Martin Luther 95 thesis, etc… There’s the Catholic explanation of scripture and of history, There’s the Protestant explanation of scripture and of history, There’s the secularist explanation of scripture(40k+ sects) and history… the one who gets the most hate by the entire world, the Catholics… I read about Masonic infiltration into all the world’s organizations, including the CC, and I read the CATECHISM, not to judge at this point, but to truly understand and a whole world opened up. I was so happy, as happy and joyful and filled with love as I did when I learned about JESUS and not just about an unknown, unnamed God I was talking to my entire life knowing one existed… I cried for accusing Catholics of idolatry, I cried so Many cast Mary aside, she prophesied she would be called blessed for all generations. I’m in catechism classes now. I will forever love Protestant enthusiasm and love for God, but now I’m learning the history of the martyrs, the continued unbroken line of Christian history, I’m learning what it meant to be Christian all these years.. who founded the Catholic Church? Not any man, but Jesus Christ. There will always be a battle between good and evil, and it takes place inside the church because the world is lost already. Please give it a chance, just study it, not from Protestant sources, from Catholic sources, understand it, completely, and then do your comparing, cannot understand catholicism by learning it second hand, that truth will always be hidden. Didn’t scripture say that the Saints would Rule with Christ? They’d judge the angels? Even the most outrageous things you’ve heard, let their official sources explain it. Learn about the Papal Bulls against joining freemasonry, the only religion that freemasonry wouldn’t allow join were Catholics forever until recently, if you don’t know about what they do at higher levels, behind closed doors, look up Albert Pike’s morals and dogma, and who they worship. Only the Catholic Church stood against it, and it against the Catholics. She is the mother church and I’m so blessed to be home. Please, Protestant, take the time to learn history, again, from another POV, read the church fathers’ writings.

The RCC doctrine changes the gospel and that means it is not a saving gospel, it is a works gospel. I get this information I am sharing from Mike Gendron and his Proclaiming the Gospel ministry. Mike is an ex-roman catholic, as am I. God opened my eyes to the false teaching of the RCC. There are many Scriptures in the Bible that state we are saved by God’s grace alone. Jesus is the ONLY way, not one of many multiple-choice ways that so many false religions teach. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” The numbers Mike put after what the RCC teaches is the paragraph number where it is found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church The Bible teaches: Titus 3:5 “He saved us, not because of any righteous deeds we had done, but because of His mercy” RCC doctrine teaches that “by His death and resurrection, Jesus Christ has ‘opened’ heaven to us” [1026]. Each person attains His own salvation by grace and good works [1477]. The Bible teaches: 1 Peter 1:18-19 knowing that you were not redeemed with perishable things like sliver or gold from your futile way of life inherited from your forefathers, [19] but with precious blood, as of a lamb unblemished and spotless, the blood of Christ. These words apply to the Lord Jesus Christ alone, not to Mary but RCC doctrine teaches that Mary is the sinless co-redeemer, “Without a single sin to restrain her, she gave herself entirely to the person and work of her son; she did so in order to serve the mystery of redemption with Him…being obedient she became the cause of salvation for herself and for the whole human race” [494] The above doctrine of the RCC is blasphemy, it is the doctrine of demons. NOWHERE in Scripture does it say that any person except the Lord Jesus is sinless. Mary knew she was a sinner and in need of a Savior. Luke 1:46-47 And Mary said: “My soul exalts the Lord, [47] And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior! The Bible teaches: Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified and Hebrews 7:27-28 who does not need daily, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for His own sins and then for the sins of the people, because this He did once for all when He offered up Himself.” Jesus said when He was hanging on the cross: John 19:28-30 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things had already been accomplished, to fulfill the Scripture, said, “I am thirsty.” [29] A jar full of sour wine was standing there; so they put a sponge full of the sour wine upon a branch of hyssop and brought it up to His mouth. [30] Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. RCC doctrine denies it is finished. Which means they are calling Jesus a liar when He Himself said IT IS FINISHED! RCC doctrine states” The sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of the eucharist are one single sacrifice..the same Christ who offered Himself once in a bloody manner on the altar of the cross is contained and offered in a unbloody manner” [1397]. The sacrifice is “offered in reparation for the sins of the living and the dead” [1414]. The RCC is saying that Jesus is continually being sacrificed on the alter, that is why they have Him hanging on the cross. Jesus is not on the cross, He is seated at the right hand of the Father. RCC priests actually think they have the authority to call Almighty God from His throne in heaven to sacrifice Him on their ‘altar’ and they actually believe they are turning bread and wine into the actual body of Jesus Christ. And then the priest holds up this fake Jesus for the congregation to worship. BLASPHEMY! IDOLATRY! They are worshipping a false Jesus. Who would want mankind to worship a false Jesus and believe a false gospel? Satan of course. Jesus did not die for dead people. After we die our eternity is sealed forever. If Jesus is not your Lord and Savior, your eternity will be in hell. We have nothing whatsoever to offer to God. We come to Him with a broken spirit. Psalm 51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, You will not despise. We cannot do any works to earn our way to heaven. Jesus said, “Repent and believe the gospel.”

I grew up in the catholic church, went to Catholic school, did the confirmation as a teen and still didnt have salvation. When I was around 16 years old a protestant friend's mom gave me a bible that was easier to read than kjv. I was reading Romans 10 one night and found it said if you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, you will be saved. At that moment I realized salvation is really that simple and I was so thankful to God for sending Jesus to die in my place for my sins and to give me the righteousness of Christ. I never knew the gospel all those years in the catholic church. It was His Word that I needed to read for myself, that it is only by faith that we are saved. Christ alone through faith alone. All glory to Him alone! Your shows should go longer than an hour because they are so good, people will not mind a longer show. I wish you could have asked him all your questions in 1 show.

Two of the places in Scripture were Mary is shown to be 'special' to God are first where Scripture states that Mary "magnifies" the Lord. (Luke 1:46-55) The second place shows the effective power of her intercession with her Son at the wedding feast at Cana when Mary simply informs her Son Jesus that they ran out of wine. She does not even need to ask Him to do something about it. Just her mentioning the problem brought miraculous action on His part, DESPITE the fact that His hour of being so publicly seen had not yet come. He changed His Own desired time-line just for her. She knew Him so well that she knew He would take care of the problem and turned to the servents and said, "Do whatever He tells you." (John 2:4)

Christ is the ONE MEDIATOR for this REASON. Protestants leave verse 6 out, and you will find that all verses they quote sounds Catholic if you read the next few verses because they love to NOT read the full message. 1 Timothy 2:5-6 : 5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. Another example: the saints in heaven cannot see our prayers????? here is the proof: Rev 8:3-5 Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people, on the golden altar in front of the throne. 4 The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God from the angel’s hand. 5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it on the earth; and there came peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake. This "Angel" had the peoples prayers in its hands. Protestants do not know scripture.

If Christ Jesus and his apostles did indeed establish the Roman Catholic Church, then why is it that we look in vain, from Matthew through the Apocalypse or Revelation, for any mention whatsoever of the “Holy Father,” or a pope, a college of cardinals, archbishops, metropolitans, patriarchs, monsignors, right reverends, priests, abbots, monks and nuns? The Scriptural record does tell us of Christians being organized back there, but if the structure of the Catholic Church is in line with that of the early Christians, how is it that we find absolutely no mention of it, not even a hint regarding such an elaborate system? On the contrary, Jesus said: “Whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave”; and, “One is your teacher, whereas all you are brothers. Moreover, do not call anyone your father on earth, for One is your Father, the heavenly One.”-Matt. 20:27; 23:8, 9, NW. Further, if Christ established the Roman Catholic Church, why is it that we look in vain in the Holy Bible for such expressions most current among her, such as trinity, purgatory, mass, immortal soul, lent, novenas, indulgences, penances, holy water, veneration of Mary, the Immaculate Conception, the Assumption of Mary, etc.? On the other hand, we read much in the Bible regarding subjects seldom mentioned by the Catholic clergy, such as regards sin’s wages being death, the hope of a resurrection, a new heavens and a new earth, and, above all, the importance of Jehovah’s name.-See Romans 6:23; John 5:28, 29; Revelation 20:5, 6; 2 Peter 3:13; Psalm 83:18; John 17:4, 6; Acts 15:14. Christ did not mix in politics. He told Pilate that his kingdom was no part of the world or else his followers would have fought to prevent his being delivered up. And said the disciple James: “Adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever, therefore, wants to be a friend of the world is constituting himself an enemy of God.” But the Catholic Church has for fifteen hundred years mixed in politics; a classic example being the shrewd, cunning and crafty Cardinal Richelieu, his example being so notorious that Roman Catholic-minded Hollywood did not dare portray him as a cardinal for fear of the wrath of the Catholic Church. Could we imagine a Peter, a John, playing the role of a Cardinal Richelieu?-John 18:36; James 4:4, NW. Then again, ever since her inception at the time of Constantine, the Catholic Church has used force to spread her teachings. Especially notorious in this regard was Charlemagne, the first emperor to be crowned by the pope. Consider also the lives of millions lost in the futile crusades, the wanton massacring of entire cities by the crusaders, men, women and children, even as did Roman Catholic generals during the religious wars of Europe, and as was done in Paris on St. Bartholomew’s night, 1572. Consider also the diabolical tortures inflicted by the dreaded Inquisition, which are without parallel in human history. Catholic apologists, such as Gibbons in his Faith of Our Fathers, would excuse these acts by pointing to intolerance practiced by Protestant sects. But that does not prove that Christ established the Catholic Church, but merely that he also did not establish such Protestant sects! In February, 1954, the public press headlined, “Italian Police Chisel Name Off U.S.-Financed Church,” indicating that the Catholic Church still practices intolerance. Yes, for it was Roman Catholic police, in Roman Catholic Italy (more than 99 per cent Roman Catholic, according to the Catholic Almanac), who chiseled the name of a Protestant church off its walls at the orders of Roman Catholic officials, orders that were based on a concordat signed by the Vatican and Mussolini. Could we imagine Jesus or his apostles causing such a thing to be done? On the contrary, they showed that Christians used spiritual weapons, their sword is God’s Word, and that vengeance belongs to Jehovah and he would repay.-2 Cor. 10:4; Rom. 12:19.

Allie, thank you so much for having Trent Horn on your show. I hope you have him again, because this discussion is just touching the tip of the iceberg. Trent Horn, you were brilliant. Thank you for mentioning the Sub Tuum Praesidium. It is an incredible prayer, and my little family sings it often before bed. I became Catholic about 20 years ago, after spending my college years devouring the writings of the saints throughout church history, as well as contemporary literature. One of my favorite chapters from GK Chesterton’s book “Orthodoxy” is when he discusses the “democracy of the dead.” That was a huge revelation for me. My life completely changed when I realized the ontological reality of the Communion of Saints. It is incredible to help my family live the liturgical year and its series of feast days honoring the saints from across the centuries and across cultures, and through them, grounding ourselves in Christ. With the saints who have gone before us and their heroic lives of faith in Christ, we are never alone in our lives of faith, and we never have to reinvent the wheel theologically- it's all a treasure trove of just TRUTH whether it's a sermon by St. John Chrysostom, a philosophical discourse on Aristotle by St. Thomas Aquinas, the stigmata of St. Padre Pio, the Little Way of St. Therese, the humble path walked by Blessed Juan Diego, the ministry of St. Mother Theresa, the poetry of St. John of the Cross, the music of St. Hildegard von Bingen, the art of Blessed Fra Angelico, the martyrdom of the Holy Innocents, the martyrdom of St. Lawrence, the Rule of St. Benedict- oh we could just go on and on- but these are nothing in and of themselves- all of these individuals point us to Christ, just as Mother Mary points always to Christ! The title of "Theotokos" is ancient, it is indeed embedded in scripture. Just start going to the traditional Latin Mass and study the readings for Mass, listen to the chants, pay attention to the feast days- it will all unlock salvation history for you. Start praying the Breviary to discover how even the hours of the day are sanctified by prayer. Start sitting in front of the Blessed Sacrament for quiet prayer time- if it isn't really Our Lord present in the Eucharist, then Catholics are either liars or lunatics. But what if- WHAT IF- it's true? What if it's Our Lord? One topic that might be interesting to discuss further would be the process of canonization of saints, and the investigation into miracles from Saints’ intercession. Thank you again for this wonderful discussion and I pray that there are more to come. Trent, thank you for being the humble, patient, and clear mouthpiece of 2000+ years of church history.

Thank you for the cordial conversation between you two. I was a Protestant for 18 years and then I converted to Catholicism two years ago once I learned the Bible had 73 books for over a millennium and a half before the 66 book bible was made only 500 years ago. Then I discovered the church fathers and learn that these men were taught by the apostles and when I read their stuff it was obvious these guys were Catholic in nature and after looking at the timeline of Church history and seeing that these church fathers with their Catholic sounding doctrines, carried and spread Christianity for over a millennium before the Reformation made me wonder, "maybe there's some truth to Catholicism because God seemed to be okay with them and they are basically the only Christian church around for all these centuries, so if God is okay with using them, maybe I should look more into it" and so I did and now i identify as Catholic and I see why Jesus established a leader of the church.

@@Ruth_1_16 He and many other have countless of debates and responses on videos regarding Mary. Praying to Mary is a layered theological doctrine because it talks about venerating Mary in a unique way because she's the mother of God, and because she's the queen so she does get a special grace for being the queen, another layer is the idea of prayer to Christians who are not alive on Earth, the next layer would be to explain what prayer actually is and isn't. There's a lot of barriers to explain before you can even get to why Catholics make a big deal about Mary. Feel free to check out other Catholic videos on KZfaq that deal with that question specifically. He did answer it though. He said later on the conversation that the body of Christ is one shared with those on earth and with those in heaven so if we can communicate with those on earth we can also communicate with those in heaven because prayer just means asking. He was spending some time trying to understand the framework of our vocabulary because prayer means asking or intercession for Catholics. She thinks that dead Christians are dead and are not aware of anything in heaven (where is that in the Bible) but Catholics believe that Christians are alive with Jesus in heaven (to be away from this body is to be with the Lord) and are aware of what's going on (The angels rejoicing over someone repenting on earth is a sign of heaven being aware, we have a cloud of witnesses like in Hebrews mentions, He mentioned in the catacombs of the early church that they would ask Peter and Paul to pray for at that loved one even though Peter and Paul have been dead for a long time at that point). I encourage you to rewatch the video or look up other Catholic videos that deal specifically with that issue.

Moses went up to the mountain and it didn’t even go a week and they started to worship a cow. So the fact that the Apostles died and left disciples doesnt actually say much. Not to mention how John says he was banned from a church by a diciple. Furthermore Jesus Christ rebuked alot of chuches saying they had gone astray in Revelation. Besides how do we even know that the teachings left from the diciples of the apostles are even real? For scriptures we have many manuscripts but how reliable are these writings? On the other hand when (in the old testament) all got corrupted and no one worshipped God or remembered how to worship God, meaning there was no tradition, King Josiah read the scriptures and it was an authority for Israel and God accepted it their repentance. So.

TO ALL NON-CATHOLICS: keep in mind Catholicism is not a Christian. Why? They teach a false gospel. Catholic path to salvation: ccc 2068 Biblical gospel: Acts 16:30-33, Eph 2:8-9 and Eph 1:13. Do not partner and be yoked with unbelievers. See them as Muslims or Mormons, etc. Love them with the true gospel and stand firm against the wiles of the devil. Her fruits are evil because she runs after a strange god. Now to Mary: Aside from worshipping the images of Mary, what other honors and attributes are heaped upon her by Catholics? Mary was made as the mediatrix (Catechism on True Devotion to Mary, .17) She was not tainted with sin (Glories and Virtues of Mary, p. 26) Its faster and more effective to ask help in her name than in the name of Jesus (Ibid., p. 201) God is subject to her (True devotions to Mary, p.9) The confusing teachings of the Catholic Church regarding Mary are made more prominent in the following: "Through her divine maternity, Mary in a certain way entered the divine family as a spouse who enters a royal home. With regard to the Father she became the first born daughter: I came out of the mouth of the Most High, the first-born before all creatures (Ecclus 24:5). With regard to the Son, she was a mother; with regard to the Holy Spirit, she was a bride." (Glories and Virtues of Mary, p. 43) The Catholic beliefs quoted above state the confusing supposed relationship of Mary to the so-called Trinity. She is said to be the first born daughter of God the Father, the Mother of "God the Son" and the spouse of "God the Holy Spirit." But, does the Bible conform to these teachings? Contradictions to biblical truth The Holy Bible makes it certain that there is only one mediator between God and man. In 1 Timothy 2:5 this is written: "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (New International Version) Christ is the only One placed and purposed by God to be the Mediator between Him (God) and men. The Bible never teaches that Mary is the mediatrix. It is not true that Mary was without sin because, according to the Bible, all men have sinned (Rom. 3:23) and the only One who did not commit sin is the Lord Jesus Christ (I Pt. 2:21-22) The belief of the Catholic Church that it is much easier to ask anything in the name of Mary is unbiblical. In John 15:16, the Lord Jesus said to His apostles: "...whatever you ask of the Father in My name, He may give you." (New King James Version) Not in the name of Mary or anyone else can true Christians ask for anything from God but only in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. To teach that God is subject to Mary is blasphemous. The Scriptures teach that the Father is the One who is above all, not Mary: "One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all." (Eph. 4:6, Ibid.) Likewise, the Catholic doctrine that Mary is allegedly the mother of God (whom Catholics believe to be Christ Himself) contradicts the truth written in Psalms 90:2 that God has no beginning, that He is neither man nor the son of man (Num. 23:19). The Bible does not call Mary the mother of God but was introduced as the mother of Jesus (Acts 1:14), the two (God and Christ) being different and distinct from each other. Even the teaching that Mary is allegedly the daughter, mother and spouse of the three persons in the Trinity is unfounded and likewise a blasphemy against God. The true God does not consist of three persons. He is absolute in oneness and a spirit in nature (Is. 45:21; Jn. 4:24). He does not recognize any other god beside Himself (Is. 44:8; 45:21). On the other hand, Mary praised the Lord. She also recognized that God is her Savior. She herself said that she is a servant of the Lord. (Lk 1:38). She likewise declared: ""My heart praises the Lord; my soul is glad because of God my Savior" (Lk. 1:38, Todays English Version). Therefore, it is not proper to worship Mary. It is improper to pray to her and ask for ones needs. Worshipping her would be going against the teachings of the Holy Scriptures and is a downright rejection of the true God.

Praying for you. I cannot recommend enough you try praying rosaries to our Blessed Mother to help you in your discernment and journey. So many at some point in our lives pray for miracles from God in trying times. But I, and I know so many others, have found the graces Our Lady dispenses to us in the rosary to be truly miraculous. I never had the patience or inclination for prayer for too many years in my life. Even a single nightly prayer of just a few minutes was a chore I couldn't wait to be done with. Sins I lacked the desire or continence to avoid all my life. I had no particular tragedy or upheaval that left me desperately seeking God. Just an inspiration to seek. Praying the rosary the graces for me were so immediate and shocking it could only be from God. They were so contrary to my nature. Previous sins that once seemed compelling because insignificant nuisances not worth any attention. The ability to pray for long periods became near effortless. The desire to not offend God, not just out of fear, but out of a desire to love Him for all He has done for me. And just simple charity so long absent in me, a kind word, a small sacrifice for someone else, patience with others who were trying to me, heling to lift someone's daily burden in life If I could express properly how contrary these things had been for me.......I pray for God to Bless you in your discernment and your life.

As as catholic, I was confused about Mary growing up too. But, after praying the rosary and reading more about her place within the Church, I came to realize that it’s not about Mary having special “powers” like she’s a marvel character. It all about love. She has a mother’s heart, and not just any mother’s heart, but she has the heart of the mother of Christ. She suffered immensely knowing her son would be opposed by many after the prophesy of Simeon. And, she accompanied Christ through all of his sufferings during his crucifixion. She wasn’t an absent mother. She was there for it all; deeply spiritually united to her son’s life and sufferings. And, she didn’t only love Jesus. She cared about every beat of his heart and that means she cares about every soul Christ died for. She didn’t try to control him and make him leave ministry knowing the prophecy of Simeon. No, she knew he had to fulfill the Father’s will and was there with him going through each trial along side of him. That can’t even be said of the apostles. The apostles betrayed and abandoned him, while his mother watched out for his best interest in everything. The love that that takes can’t be underestimated. Ask any mother how she feels watching her child suffer in agony and then realize that that was the same experience for Mary. She lived 33 years with Christ incarnate. None of us can boast in a resume like that. As believers we are God’s children. Mary is also a child of God the Father, but with Christ being conceived by the Holy Spirit, that also makes her the spouse of the Holy Spirit as well as the mother of the Second person of the Holy Trinity (Jesus). Her life was utterly permeated with the presence of God like no other creature. It’s not the Catholic Church making her elevated. It is God himself choosing to do so. “Blessed are you among women” (Luke 1:42). The Church just acknowledges the facts. Ultimately, her heart is totally permeated with the presence and love of God. She loves each of us because of that love and she treats us like her children (from heaven because people in heaven aren’t dead; they are more alive than us). And so, she prays for us because she loves us and wants all of us to be saved through the saving blood of her son Jesus Christ. And Jesus honors his mother, and answers the prayers she brings to him that are in accordance with the will of God, because of the sacrifices she made for him while accompanying him in all he went through in life, death and crucifixion. He just deeply loves his mom. And, with a mom that devoted and loving, who wouldn’t?

Dear@@mitchellosmer1293, yes, we have all read the Bible. God named the seventh day to be a day of rest. He told us in the 10 Commandments to keep holy the Sabbath Day, and we are told how to do this under the Law of Moses. But during the time of the Maccabees, the Greeks wiped out a village of observant Judeans on a Sabbath (1 Maccabees 2:25-38). So those who sat in the Seat of Moses, determined that Judeans could defend themselves if attacked on the Sabbath (1 Maccabees 2:39-41.) Jesus refers to this incident in Mark 3:4. Jesus came to fulfill the law. Not just in a ritualistic way, under the Mosaic Law, but also in the Maccabeen sense of saving Life. And not just on one day a week, but on every day. I am writing this response as a courtesy to you, to give you a fair chance at understanding how far your understanding of the Sabbath is from that which is taught in the Bible (since you do not have the the books of the Maccabees in your Bible, you would not know this history that everyone in Judea and Galilee knew at the time Jesus walked the earth.) But I doubt that I will reply to anything you may say to me, since you have already proclaimed that you intend to read what I say in a twisted manner.

Thats good and nice but what does mary do for you? For a model or example, certainly but can she recieve your prayers? Can she forgive your sins? Why would she be the broker of your prayers to jesus when you have the holy spirit already filling that position? Are you not putting humans above God? She didnt experience resurrection, she didnt give birth to God or the Holy Spirit. She may be in heaven, maybe not in heaven, dont know, but i do know Jesus is at the right hand of God. You could just as well pray to your uncle who you think is in heaven. Pray to jesus, thats a certainty.

The protestant "reformers" are not. ➨ INTERCESSION OF MARY & THE SAINTS IN THE BIBLE ...INCLUDING BIBLICAL PROOF that SAINTS ARE NOT AMONG THE DEAD: The Protestant claim that we are forbidden to speak to / pray to Mary and the saints is NOWHERE in the Bible. In fact, the following scriptures were copied (by me) directly from the Protestant version of the Bible: ... ➨INTERCESSION OF THE SAINTS: ● REV 5:8 The prayers of the Saints are offered to Jesus the lamb. ➨INTERCESSION of a holy person on our behalf: ● JOB 42:8 8 Now therefore take seven bulls and seven rams, and GO TO MY SERVANT JOB, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; and MY SERVANT Job SHALL PRAY FOR YOU, FOR I WILL ACCEPT HIS PRAYER NOT TO DEAL WITH YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR FOLLY; for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has. ➨INTERCESSION of MARY: ● JOHN 2:1 At the wedding feast at Cana, it was Mary who asked Jesus to help the wedding party. ➨The KING Honours his mother's request: ● 1 KINGS 2:20: Then she said, “I have one small request to make of you; do not refuse me.” And the king said to her, “Make your request, my mother, for I will not refuse you.” (Jesus is the Greatest King and he also honours his mother's requests) ➨SAINTS ARE NOT AMONG THE DEAD: AND THEIR INTERCESSION IS BIBLICAL: They share in the ressurrection of Jesus: (Protestants attack Biblical saints while they follow dead reformers) ● MATTHEW 27: 52 -53: When Jesus was raised from the dead Many were raised up with him. 53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. ● LUKE 23 v 39-43...Jesus told the good thief "today you will be with me in paradise" ● REV 19 v 14...when Jesus returns he will be accompanied by his heavenly armies of saints. ● 2 COR 5 v 8...Paul tells us that to be absent with the body is to be with the Lord. ● JOHN 11 v 25-26...Jesus said I am the ressurrection and the life, he who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives, believing in me will never die. ● LUKE 1619-30 The story of the rich man and Lazarus show The Rich man, Lazarus and Abraham, all concious and interacting with each other even though they have physically died. ● LUKE 9:30-31 And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elias: 31 Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.

The wing of one cherub touched one wall, while the wing of the other touched the other wall, and their wings touched each other in the middle of the room. 28 He overlaid the cherubim with gold. 29 On the walls all around the temple, in both the inner and outer rooms, he carved cherubim, palm trees and open flowers. 30 He also covered the floors of both the inner and outer rooms of the temple with gold. ➨ BOWING as a sign of honour / respect: ● JOSHUA 7:6: 6 Joshua & the elders of Israel tore their clothing and lay prostrate (face down on the ground) before the Ark of the Lord.

Joshua went up to him and asked, “Are you for us or for our enemies?” 14 “Neither,” he replied, “but as commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.” Then Joshua fell FACE DOWN TO THE GROUND in reverence, and asked him, “What message does my Lord[a] have for his servant?” 15 The commander of the Lord’s army replied, “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy.” And Joshua did so.

@@mitchellosmer1293 Where in the Bible does the Bible say that the Bible ALONE is your only Authority and everything has to be stated in the Bible in order to believe it? Tradition really opens up the door for why we pray to Mary. The disconnect between Protestants and Catholics is Sola Scriptura. If you can ONLY focus on the Bible as your only source for Christian teachings then your limiting your understanding of Christianity. Trent said: The Word of God is how we know that praying to Mary is beneficial. The Word of God is both Scripture and Oral Tradition which is BTW IN SCRIPTURE. Paul says that much Christian teaching is to be found in the tradition which is handed down by word of mouth (2 Tim. 2:2). He instructs us to “stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter” (2 Thess. 2:15). I always have to point out that there isn’t any scripture verses that says Bible ALONE is our only authority. Again, that’s the disconnect. If you can show me the verse then I’ll gladly start answering all your questions.

“If one does it will either be out of context or twisted scripture”-You. This is not language of someone wanting to seek truth. You are asking these questions in the mindset of sola scriptura. First, you have to remove yourself out of this box to find the fullness of the faith. Be careful not to think in black and white (clearly In Bible/Not in Bible). The Bible was still being formulated throughout the first 300 years of the church, at the same time, the Church fathers and earliest Christians were establishing traditions and rituals. (Language Catholic Church uses): “Asking Mary for her intercession” was among these early traditions established as Trent said in the video. In the same way the Bible was put together so was the early Catholic Doctrine. Again, in the video, even though the lady put an ad right in between his best point, he says the earliest Christians were asking the apostles to pray for them and the earliest recorded prayer in history was asking the Theotokos “Mary” to pray for us. Many people hate what they think the Catholic Church is, but almost no one hates what’s the Catholic Church truly is.

Is Mary the Mother of God? No, the Bible does not teach that Mary is the mother of God, nor does it suggest that Christians should either worship or venerate Mary. a Consider: • Mary never claimed that she was the mother of God. The Bible explains that she gave birth to “the Son of God,” not God himself.-Mark 1:1; Luke 1:32. • Jesus Christ never said that Mary was God’s mother or that she was worthy of special devotion. In fact, he corrected a woman who gave special attention to Mary’s happy role as his mother, saying: “No, rather, happy are those hearing the word of God and keeping it!”-Luke 11:27, 28. • The terms “Mother of God” and “Theotokos” (God-bearer) are not found in the Bible. • The expression “Queen of Heaven” in the Bible refers, not to Mary, but to a false goddess worshipped by apostate Israelites. (Jeremiah 44:15-19) The “Queen of Heaven” may have been Ishtar (Astarte), a Babylonian goddess. • Early Christians did not worship Mary, nor did they give her any special honor. One historian states that early Christians “would have rejected cults and probably feared that undue attention to Mary might evoke a suspicion of goddess worship.”-In Quest of the Jewish Mary. • The Bible says that God has always existed. (Psalm 90:1, 2; Isaiah 40:28) Since he had no beginning, he cannot have a mother. Furthermore, Mary could not have held God in her womb; the Bible makes clear that even the heavens cannot contain him.-1 Kings 8:27. Mary-Mother of Jesus not “Mother of God” Mary was Jewish by birth, and she was a direct descendant of King David. (Luke 3:23-31) She was highly favored by God for her faith and devotion. (Luke 1:28) God chose her to become the mother of Jesus. (Luke 1:31, 35) Along with her husband, Joseph, Mary had other children.-Mark 6:3. Although the Bible shows that Mary became a disciple of Jesus, not much additional information is given about her.-Acts 1:14. Why do some consider Mary the mother of God? The earliest evidence of devotion to Mary dates from the late fourth century C.E. At that time, the Catholic Church became the State religion of the Roman Empire. As a result, many who had a pagan background became nominal Christians. The church had also adopted the unscriptural teaching of the Trinity. The doctrine of the Trinity led many in the church to conclude that if Jesus were God, then Mary must be the mother of God. In 431 C.E., a church council in Ephesus officially proclaimed Mary the “Mother of God.” Mariolatry-the excessive veneration of Mary-flourished after this Council of Ephesus. And as those from a pagan background joined the church, images and icons of the Virgin Mary gradually took the place of their fertility goddesses, such as Artemis (Diana, to the Romans) and Isis. In 432 C.E., Pope Sixtus III ordered a church to be built in Rome in honor of the “Mother of God.” It was built near the site of an earlier temple erected in honor of Lucina, the Roman goddess of childbirth. One author described this church as “an enduring symbol of the assimilation of the Great Mother of the pagan cults to the cult of Mary after the Christianization of Rome.”-Mary-The Complete Resource.

@@alwaysrootingfortheantihero123 The Bible does not teach that Mary was ever-virgin either, or a perpetual virgin. Rather, it shows that Mary had other children.-Matthew 12:46; Mark 6:3; Luke 2:7; John 7:5. Was Jesus’ virgin birth the “Immaculate Conception”? No. According to the New Catholic Encyclopedia, the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception “designates the belief that the Virgin Mary was free from ORIGINAL SIN from the very beginning of her life, i.e., from her conception. The rest of mankind inherits a human nature infected with sin . . . But Mary was, by a unique GRACE, preserved from ever contracting original sin.” By contrast, nowhere does the Bible teach that Mary was free from original sin. (Psalm 51:5; Romans 5:12) In fact, Mary gave evidence that she was sinful when she presented the sin-atoning sacrifice that the Mosaic Law required of mothers. (Leviticus 12:2-8; Luke 2:21-24) The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The Immaculate Conception is not taught explicitly in Scripture . . . [It] is a judgment that the Church has made.” How should we view Mary? Mary set a fine example of faith, obedience, humility, and deep spirituality. She is among the faithful ones whom we do well to imitate.-Hebrews 6:12. Yet, despite her unique role as the mother of Jesus, the Bible does not teach that we should worship Mary or pray to her. Jesus did not single out his mother for special honor, nor did he tell his followers to do so. In fact, outside of the Gospel accounts and a single reference in the book of Acts, Mary is not mentioned in the remaining 22 books of the so-called New Testament.-Acts 1:14. The Scriptures provide no evidence that Mary received special attention-let alone veneration-by first-century Christians. Rather, the Bible teaches Christians to worship only God.-Matthew 4:10. The Bible teaches that Jesus had a number of siblings The only acceptable way to gain access to the “Hearer of prayer” is through Jesus Christ. (Psalm 65:2) Jesus plainly taught: “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one can come to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6, JB) Mary was not invited to share this responsibility and serve as an intermediary. If Mary had been granted this unique privilege, surely Jehovah would have made it known.-Hebrews 4:14-16; 1 John 2:1, 2. The Rosary and recitation of memorized prayers originated outside of professedly Christian lands. Praying to Mary ignores what Jesus taught, that “no one can come to the Father except through [him].” Thus, the Rosary and Mary are not God’s way to approach Him in prayer. The Rosary does not contribute to such meaningful prayers. Jeannine observed that reciting “Hail Mary's” on the Rosary “became unconsciously repetitious.” Repeating the same words on the Rosary did not bring her closer to God. Said another former Catholic nun, Lydia: “I did not find anything instructive in reciting the Rosary. I would have preferred reading books on religion.” Repetitious prayers serve no useful purpose, since God has promised: “Before they call, I will answer.” (Isaiah 65:24, NAB; Matthew 6:7, 8, 32) Almighty God appreciates and answers petitions that are said with the right motive and that come from an honest and sincere heart. The Rosary does not help a person to approach God with meaningful, heartfelt prayers.-Psalm 119:145; Hebrews 10:22.

For me it was also the Early Church Fathers, but also the deep reverence of Catholic Mass and The Real Presence in the Eucharist, which are not things you can find in other denominations.

I will say it wasn’t a debate or an argument that led me to Catholicism. It was the work of the Holy Spirit alone. I went to Catholics to get answers because the Lord was unexpectedly drawing me and my husband to the Church. I didn’t look for answers from Catholics to try to prove my side as a Protestant but to truly understand them and why the Spirit would be leading me to this. When that happened, scripture came alive in a whole new way and what Catholics believe began to make sense, one concept at a time.
@alexshatner390710 күн бұрын
Does God’s Word authorize such repetitious praying? No. Jesus said: “But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. So, do not make yourselves like them, for God your Father knows what things you are needing before ever you ask him.” How well Jesus knew the human tendency to want to repeat prayers! And, in view of his warning, the fact that the use of the rosary is widespread among the people of the nations carries no weight with it whatsoever!-Matt. 6:7, 8. Apologists for the rosary try to rob Jesus’ words of their effect by pointing to Revelation 4:8, in which the word “holy” appears three times: “Holy, holy, holy.” But it is quite different from repeating one word twice in a prayer for a total of three words to repeating the forty words in Hail Mary fifty-two times for a total of 2,120 words, not to say anything of the other repetitions involved. Repeating a thing twice for emphasis is done throughout the Scriptures and makes sense. Thus when Jesus was faced with his greatest test he prayed three times to Jehovah his Father. Likewise Paul three times asked God to remove a certain “thorn in the flesh.” There is nothing, however, in the Scriptures to indicate that Jesus and Paul had memorized these prayers or had used them at some other time in their lives. These prayers were born out of the serious trials they were undergoing.-Matt. 26:39-44; 2 Cor. 12:7. But trying to remember all the various recitations required in saying the rosary and to repeat them in their proper order makes saying the rosary a memory test rather than a spontaneous expression of heartfelt prayer. Besides, one’s mind cannot help but wander when one has to say the same forty words fifty-three times in one prayer. Such repetition is but a variation of the prayer wheel of certain Oriental religions. It consists of a cylinder in which written prayers are placed. Each time the cylinder is revolved the prayers in it are supposed to have been repeated. Nor is that all. The Hail Mary is said nine times as often as the Paternoster, or “Our Father,” fifty-three times as compared with six times. Is the prayer composed by men and directed to Mary nine times as important or effective as the prayer taught by Jesus and directed to God himself? The fact is that, look where we will in the Scriptures, not once do we read of anyone seeking access either to God or to Jesus by way of Mary. NO BENEFITS As for the benefits of indulgences promised those reciting the rosary: How can anyone gain such benefits when, look where we will in God’s Word, not a word do we find about a purgatory? On the contrary, we are plainly told the following: “The wages sin pays is death.” When man “goes back to his ground, in that day his thoughts do perish.” The dead “are conscious of nothing at all.” Man’s hope lies in a resurrection from the dead, “of both the righteous and the unrighteous.”-Rom. 6:23; Ps. 146:4; Eccl. 9:5; Acts 24:15. And regarding the forgiveness of our sins, we are assured that it is “the blood of Jesus his Son [that] cleanses us from all sin.” And “if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous so as to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”-1 John 1:7, 9. The repeating of fifty-three Hail Marys every time the rosary is recited flies in the face of Jesus’ express condemnation of saying the “same things over and over again.” Its widespread use outside of professedly Christian lands argues that its origin is pagan. And the same must also be said regarding its associated features, the exaltation of Mary, the offering of indulgences for saying the rosary, the crediting of victories to it and its claimed power to decrease purgatorial suffering. None of these find any support in the Scriptures, but they do find parallels in pagan religions. In view of all these facts, can the rosary be said to be Christian? It cannot!

@DavidJosephBoth It's called catholicism, I know you probably never looked into it seriously. I was an anti catholic for a long time, the church I grew up in was traditional. These days the UMC is lost but in the 80s they actually cared about scripture. John Wesley created a method to reduce and eliminate sin from someone's life. It was known as the Wesley method. Methodist became a slur against his students that they proudly accepted. That's not to say I didn't study other branches of protestantism. I studied Calvin's doctrines for 10 years, read luther, Spurgeon, rc sproul, cs Lewis and listened to podcasts from Doug Wilson, James white, Michael brown, John MacArthur, Francis Chan, and about a dozen lesser known pastors like John Samson. All that study and perspective and I still found myself confused about some passages. The best pastors couldn't explain it.... for instance, I've never heard a logical reason why calvinists believe the Jewish had no choice in choosing christ. He literally weeps because they would not choose him. Eventually I figured nobody really has it figured out and we should all just do our best with interpretation. It's a crazy long story but I started investigating the catholic church to prove it wrong. Eventually I realized they were right and the true church. Honestly don't have a single Bible difficulty, all the doctrines are sound logic, all the traditions dig back into the first century. You should at least look into what we belive. The chances are 100% that you have a misunderstanding about the church. If you didn't, you'd be catholic too.

@@timboslice980 My friend, there is nothing biblical about praying to Mary and other saints. Christians are called to pray to ONE God. We are not to call on the name of any other name other than Jesus. There is nothing biblical about going to a priest and confessing your sins and being "forgiven" and then giving penitence. There is one high priest, and that is Jesus, and He is the only one that can forgive sins. We have no need of an intercessor between the Father and us on earth any longer as we now have Jesus who goes directly to the Father. The amount of absolute idolatry worship in the catholic church is staggering. Have you ever seen the Vatican? Have you seen all the pagan imagery? Have you seen how the catholic church has taken pagan gods and littered the Vatican and their other "holy" churches with it's imagery? Have you seen the Pope's Audience hall that looks exactly like a snake and was built that way purposefully? I'm well aware the disagreements within the Christian church. Calvinism is certainly not something that I agree with at all. Salvation was paid in blood FOR ALL. It is us who chooses to believe or not. We accept, or reject Christ and his free gift. Calvinism is absolutely wrong in every way.

@@EliVanFleet Check out the vatican snake hall debunked. People take pictures of it from a specific angle to make it look that way. Any other angle and the image disappears….. its a silly conspiracy theory. Also check revelation 5:8 When he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell before the Lamb, each holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. How do the angels and saints get the prayers to offer to god here? Do we pray prayers only to god, he then takes the prayers and gives them to the angels and saints to offer back up to god? How absurd!? Sometimes i think you guys don’t look up what Catholics believe before you criticize us. It’s obvious you have a prejudice against catholics. The thing is there are certain theological principles and full on passages in scripture that are NEVER the topic of sermons. I’ve never heard a pastor talk about Romans 2, they literally always start at 3 because no Protestants seem to realize theres a distinction between good works and works of the law. This causes a theological virus in your thinking that causes you to ignore so much scripture it’s alarming. You guys cant make sense of matthew 16, james 2, and revelation in its entirety. Vestments, incense, prayers to saints, the queen of heaven, not tolerating sinners in church, the Eucharist the whole book is so catholic that you guys just say “its a symbolic book” Why is it of Protestants dont get it, they just assume its symbolic? Where is that hermeneutical rule?

My disgust and misunderstanding of Catholicism was largely fueled by influencers like Allie. My continual search for the objective truth and the grace of God to humble me allowed me to investigate both sides with genuine curiosity and an open mind. What I found is that if you go deep enough into history, you cannot continue being Protestant. Catholicism transformed my spiritual walk and relationship with Jesus in ways I cannot even begin to describe. If you know, you know. I pray for the deception to be lifted from all who are in opposition of Christ’s Church, and for their love of the Lord to override their misunderstanding.

There could not have been a symbol, however, unless there was first a true body. An empty thing or phantom is incapable of a symbol." (Against Marcion, 4.40) This is in the context of refuting the Docetic heresy of denying that Jesus had a physical body. But Tertullian clearly wrote that the bread is a symbol of His body.

Even as a cradle Catholic and with a Catholic family background devoted to Our Blessed Mother, she was largely an after thought in too much of my life. I suppose there was a feeling of why pray through Mary when I could pray directly to God. Not to imply I was either prayerful or a good practicing Catholic. Both were far from true to my shame. But I've come to strongly believe in the rosary, and the graces God imparts through Our Lady, and that has drawn me into a more personal relationship with her. The closest thing I've experienced to miracles in my life are the graces she has imparted to me so contrary to my nature. The grace of prayer, love for God and by extension His children on earth. A desire to show that love through small kindnesses and acts of charity offered up to Jesus. Much more patience and kindness to those around me. And a recognition of how my sins are not just "breaking the law" in some spiritual sense, but outrages against His love and love itself. The effects are so quick, surprisingly effortless and miraculous in myself and so many others it can only by described as miraculous. I couldn't be more convinced of God's hand if a dead man came back to life. I couldn't urge one pray the rosary in their life more passionately than I could offer someone a cure to a terrible illness, and ultimately far more beneficial than the latter. I can't fully explain why God has chosen Our Lady as mediatrix in this our lives. But I do believe that Our Lord Christ and Our Blessed Lady are the new Adam and the new Eve, and He has anointed Her to crush the head of the serpent in this world and acts as a Mother to us all.

Catholic convert from Presbyterian here, this was a fantastic interview, very charitable on both sides. Would love to hear more from Trent on justification and clear up the huge misunderstanding of the role of works - as he said we cannot merit initial justification, but our works can increase our sanctification once when we are justified. Catholics need to understand what our church teaches on this as well…we cannot earn salvation. Looking forward to part two!!!
@revelation12153 ай бұрын
Increasing our sanctification has nothing to do with earning salvation. For instance, Protestants often quote Ephesians 2:8-9 to say works don’t matter: 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God -- 9 not because of works, lest any man should boast. But then ignore the very next verse: _10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them._ Even Jesus says that not everyone who says Lord Lord will enter the kingdom but only the one who _does_ the will of the Father.
@SavedbytheLordsgrace13 ай бұрын
The works are a *by-product* of saving faith, but no good work a human being could do could ever merit salvation. That’s why verse 10 isn’t quoted, because verses 8-9 emphasise that salvation is GOD’S work and Catholics so often misunderstand v. 10 to argue that works save us. All saving faith will *produce* good works (otherwise it’s antinomian rubbish and not real faith), but to argue that good works produce or contribute to a person’s righteousness in any way, as Catholicism and the rest of the world does, is heresy and not true. Righteousness comes only from trusting in Christ. And when a person trusts in Jesus and is born again, then they can walk in the good works that He prepared for them in advance. (V. 10). Which shows that sanctification is also Jesus’s work, as He’s the Founder and Perfecter of the faith of those who trust in Him (Hebrews 12:2)

Does God’s Word authorize such repetitious praying? No. Jesus said: “But when praying, do not say the same things over and over again, just as the people of the nations do, for they imagine they will get a hearing for their use of many words. So, do not make yourselves like them, for God your Father knows what things you are needing before ever you ask him.” How well Jesus knew the human tendency to want to repeat prayers! And, in view of his warning, the fact that the use of the rosary is widespread among the people of the nations carries no weight with it whatsoever!-Matt. 6:7, 8. Apologists for the rosary try to rob Jesus’ words of their effect by pointing to Revelation 4:8, in which the word “holy” appears three times: “Holy, holy, holy.” But it is quite different from repeating one word twice in a prayer for a total of three words to repeating the forty words in Hail Mary fifty-two times for a total of 2,120 words, not to say anything of the other repetitions involved. Repeating a thing twice for emphasis is done throughout the Scriptures and makes sense. Thus when Jesus was faced with his greatest test he prayed three times to Jehovah his Father. Likewise Paul three times asked God to remove a certain “thorn in the flesh.” There is nothing, however, in the Scriptures to indicate that Jesus and Paul had memorized these prayers or had used them at some other time in their lives. These prayers were born out of the serious trials they were undergoing.-Matt. 26:39-44; 2 Cor. 12:7. But trying to remember all the various recitations required in saying the rosary and to repeat them in their proper order makes saying the rosary a memory test rather than a spontaneous expression of heartfelt prayer. Besides, one’s mind cannot help but wander when one has to say the same forty words fifty-three times in one prayer. Such repetition is but a variation of the prayer wheel of certain Oriental religions. It consists of a cylinder in which written prayers are placed. Each time the cylinder is revolved the prayers in it are supposed to have been repeated. Nor is that all. The Hail Mary is said nine times as often as the Paternoster, or “Our Father,” fifty-three times as compared with six times. Is the prayer composed by men and directed to Mary nine times as important or effective as the prayer taught by Jesus and directed to God himself? The fact is that, look where we will in the Scriptures, not once do we read of anyone seeking access either to God or to Jesus by way of Mary. NO BENEFITS As for the benefits of indulgences promised those reciting the rosary: How can anyone gain such benefits when, look where we will in God’s Word, not a word do we find about a purgatory? On the contrary, we are plainly told the following: “The wages sin pays is death.” When man “goes back to his ground, in that day his thoughts do perish.” The dead “are conscious of nothing at all.” Man’s hope lies in a resurrection from the dead, “of both the righteous and the unrighteous.”-Rom. 6:23; Ps. 146:4; Eccl. 9:5; Acts 24:15. And regarding the forgiveness of our sins, we are assured that it is “the blood of Jesus his Son [that] cleanses us from all sin.” And “if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous so as to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”-1 John 1:7, 9. The repeating of fifty-three Hail Marys every time the rosary is recited flies in the face of Jesus’ express condemnation of saying the “same things over and over again.” Its widespread use outside of professedly Christian lands argues that its origin is pagan. And the same must also be said regarding its associated features, the exaltation of Mary, the offering of indulgences for saying the rosary, the crediting of victories to it and its claimed power to decrease purgatorial suffering. None of these find any support in the Scriptures, but they do find parallels in pagan religions. In view of all these facts, can the rosary be said to be Christian? It cannot!

The sola scriptura argument is the hold up on almost every issue. Sola Sciptura holds no water. It is found nowhere in scripture and was made up to fit Protestant doctrine. Speaking a Catholic convert from Southern Baptist I pray that all Protestants have an awakening as I have and come home to the One Holy Catholic “Universal” and Apostolic Church!

Trent you did an outstanding job of listening. For over 60 years I believed what this lady says, however I slowly and simply had to progress to Catholicism. Funny thing, now that I am Catholic I love scripture so much more and now so many more of Christ’s parables make sense.

Thank you for having Trent on the show. I pray at the end for UNITY of all Christians

Unfortunately the RCC has a false gospel so there will never be unity as they are not christians.

Unity ONLY if it is Unity in the Truth. Any other unity is demonic.

It can if all seek truth. Trent didn't bring up a lot of misunderstandings, truths, and scripture I think because he didn't want to argue. You can see it in his face he was trying to get to the roots of her conviction. But it was more than one. It would take a much longer conversation.

There can be no true unity with Catholics as they have a false gospel.
