He was probably talking about the Gospel of Matthew in 1 Corinthians 15:4. The Ante-Nicene Fathers suggest a very early writing date for Matthew, and Paul's writings imply familiarity with it.

@@franciscoscaramanga9396 It would be more likely, Paul was referring to the Psalms here, because he later references Psalms 8:6. See verse 27.

@@franciscoscaramanga9396 Does it have to be Matthew? Couldn't it have been Mark, which is generally recognized as the earliest? (i.e. 50ish AD). Most of the content is similar.

@@samueljennings4809 It's not recognized as the earliest; the unanimous assent of the *actual* historical evidence is that Matthew was written first. Literary inheritance theory is the intellectual equivalent of the guy with a bunch of newspapers and strings on his wall.

One thing I learned as an adult Catholic: Two groups you would never learn the Catholic education from: a. Catholic Schools/universities b. priests Catholic universities and schools are breeding ground of evangelicals that target Catholics. And the school is ok about it. There are more devout evangelicals in Catholic universities than devout catholics. The priests rarely, very rarely, make sermons about specific Catholic doctrines. Most of the time, their sermons are about practical life experiences and are disconnected from the Mass readings thank God, there people like Dr Pitre, who explain it all in simplest ways possible.

@@akak8299 How long ago did you go to Catholic school?

Because for me it was a joke, back in the 80's nothing was explained and during the holidays we had projectors, which looking back now it's hard to believe they played movies like the Ten Commandments, I mean that's my mom's childhood generation of movies.

Great presentation from Dr. Pitre

The 2 should never conflict and a lot of the liturgical practices do conflict.

One truth sir. One Ark of salvation . No ecumenism as it doesn't support one truth...

It literally makes this distinction in the catechism.

@@Lavos243 Who cares what it says? It is the Bible that counts and what it says.

@@bcalvert321 why are you even on this if you aren't Catholic?

Contrary to what your religion wants you to believe, Paul was baptised by Ananias, one of the leading Christian in the town of Damascus. (c/ref: Acts 9:10-18) So through the act of baptism, he has received the faith of the Apostles that Jesus Christ died, buried and rose from the death to atone for your sins and save you from eternal death or damnation. Peace.✌

@@eddixxon Contrary to your conjecture, my religion has never mentioned such a trivial person by name. My religion, however warns about those who associate partners with God, claime falsely to be prophets of God, abolish the laws of God and make what has been prohibited by God permitted and visa versa such as this imposter. May God curse him in hellfire along with the church fathers who followed his heresy as the have mislead many people and caused blood shed throughout history such as in crusaders wars, inquisitions, Nepolean wars, WWI, WWII, Hiroshima, Nagazaki, Afganistan, Irag and many other places. And if you dip such a person in acid he will stay filthy. He is a devil walked on earth. He hijacked the monotheistic message Jesus came up with frm God and turned it into polytheism.

@@shihabshihabi Congratulation, spoken like a true disciple of your prophet. Give yourself a pat on the back! Btw, you forgot to mention the massacre of Shias by the Sunnis and vice versa and the murder of Caliph Ali by the very followers of the way in the early days of the spread of the religion of peace which has nothing to do with the Crusaders. Another pat on the back for hiding the truth, err....in the name of taqiyyah?

@@eddixxon It is my duty to defend the man you claim you love but you have foresaken.

@@shihabshihabi Yeah right, defend with lies and claims that are not Apostolate in origin? Who are you trying to kid? So according to the Quran, if Allah had spared Jesus from the dying on the excruciating cross and put Judas in His place, then why didn't Allah spared Muhammad from dying as the result of eating the poison roasted lamb prepared by the Jewish widow, Zaynab bint Al-Harith after 3 long years of suffering, until your prophet felt like his aorta was cut in two? Does that mean that Allah love Jesus Christ more than Muhammad? If that is the case, than you should bear witness that Jesus Christ is the true prophet of God and not Muhammad because Allah didn't save him (Muhammad) from that terrible suffering and eventual death like what He did to Jesus.

You must be reading the faulty King James Bible, in which they took out books and added words.

@@alejandrocanela691 You must be reading the lies of Jerome. Maccabees and the others are useless. They are okay to read but they have nothing of value for us.

@@bcalvert321 What about my other point? Martin Luther added and changed words. This is heretical, you cannot simply change the Gospel!

@@alejandrocanela691 Luther did not write the KJV. It has some mistakes in it. Such as Holy Ghost instead of Spirit. That is why I never use it for a study guide. I use the NIV and the NASB to study the scriptures. They are taken from the original Greek. Jerome changed Luke 1:28 when he made his Latin Vulgate. The word he uses for grace is wrong, The original Greek says highly favored. The word he wants to use is found only twice in the Bible, John 1:4 and Acts 6:8.

@@bcalvert321 1.In case you hadn't notice, Mary was declared Full of Grace by the angel Gabriel, meaning she was sinless. And if you believe that you are saved by Grace through Faith, then, all the more you should honour the Adulation given by God to Mary through the angel Gabriel, if not your adherent of the doctrine of Sola Fide would be pointless. Btw, I didn't see your name specifically anywhere in the bible with the fraction of that honour. Care to quote? 2. He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!” If Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are declared alive before the historical timeline of Jesus' resurrection, how much more alive is His Mother after His resurrection? If Mary, Jesus' Mother who is honoured with the title Full of Grace is declared death as you would love to believe, then your faith in Jesus Christ would be in vain and would make God an ultimate liar. You know the consequences for that, don't you?

Mattthew 7:21 Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those *who actually do* the will of my Father in heaven will enter. Unless you were not created with a free will, work will come automatically after grace and faith. And Agape Love would be fake in the absence of free will as well as all loving efforts or acts of kindness, not to mention your wife's Eros love for you! And the Love of the Sacred Heart who offered His Life on the cross in obedient to His Father for us was and is nothing more than an automated and a natural act not something to be thankful for. Meaning to say, all your worship songs in your Sunday services are all fake and nothing more than lip services, devoid of gratitude and thankfulness. Shame on you, Ben the cyborg! Go ahead then and pour scorn on the cross.

Are we saved if we don't do works, simple question

@@Richie_roo We are saved by faith. That faith should produce works. If it doesn't then a person is very lazy. Works will not get you into heaven but it will get you a better standing in heaven.

@@bcalvert321 so you're saying it is unnecessary to have works to get into heaven, yes or no?

@@Richie_roo As I said the first time you get into heaven by making Jesus your Lord and Savior. No works on your part will get you into heaven,
