The founder of St. Irenaeus, David Higbee and I put this video together back in 2012 with the help of our friend Chris Wojdak. We were exploring the possibility of doing more with video, and this served as kind of a pilot episode. We didn't end up pursuing the project, but I think this video, despite being a little rough around the edges, more than holds its own.
This is St. Irenaeus Ministries and I'm Ted Janiszewski. For more info on what we're doing, or to support us with a donation, visit our website at www.siministries.org/

Excellent video! Interestingly enough, I just finished reading through the book of Romans, and chapter 11 contains the same message in the example of the grafted olive branches.

Great content, please keep making more. As a former Protestant, I recognize that it is chiefly a “got you” question that refuses any explanation other than yes. Therefore, I am always looking for a very short response to it.

Not all Protestants believe in the doctrine of "eternal security", a chunk of Calvinism removed from its context in fuller Reformed theology. Lutherans explicitly believe that it is possible to fall from saving grace, i.e. a salvific state, into unbelief. It is faith that saves, and if one fall from faith, one is not saved during a period or remainder of life passed in unbelief.

True, but it is difficult to pin down Protestants as a group on just about anything. There are just too many denominations and their doctrines are too varried. Even the supposed "non-denominational" Protestant Christians have varrious idiosyncratic beliefs based on the tradition and education of their pastor or spiritual leader. This was very frustrating for me growing up in the Lutheran Church (and my friends from school growing up in all kinds of other Protestant churches). I felt like we were all Christian but we had radically different beliefs. Eventually, in my late 20s, I discovered the Catholic church was the historical Christian Church and praise be to God that is where I remain today. ✝️🙏

Yeah, Protestants (Lutherans, Reformed, and some Anglicans) and, far more, the sectaries (Baptists, Pentecostalists, Methodists, Cambellites, et al.) are all over the place in what they believe. That does not bother me as a Lutheran. Lutheranism is happily Catholic AND Protestant. Those others can go hang, for all that I care about what they profess.
