How to Convert Your Protestant Family/Friends
Protestants have clothed themselves with an in -penetrable shield. No matter what you say, they will never listen.
You just knocked down 3 straw men
The solution to division is submission to Christ. I've studied the Fathers and the history of the Roman Church. I'm still not convinced. However, your videos are excellent and if my non-Christian family members would become Roman Catholics, I'd be delighted. I still can't accept many of the teachings of the Church of Rome. I tried to wrap my head around converting for about a decade. It would take too long here to explain the reasons why I did not convert. Blessings to you.
It’s obvious Pope Francis doesn’t believe all the things you believe According to Pope Francis atheists can be saved, so I wouldn’t worry about evangelizing Protestants.
All I see is a bunch of Idols behind you...
God bless you. Keep it up! You're doing good work and it's appreciated.
Thank you for the support :) God bless you!
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. That's it. That's all. Denominations are not different religions. Mormonism or Jehovah's Witnesses are different religions, just like Sikh and Muslims, because they do not believe what the Bible says.
Catholicism doesn’t really offer infallible epistemological certainty either though. Its teachings are only as trustworthy as the teaching office, and there is always a finite chance that one could be mistaken in accepting the teaching office. It’s kinda unavoidable
As a Protestant, I have a strategy for you: 1. Drop the pope 2. Stop requiring Catholics to believe things that are nowhere in the Bible or worse-contrary to it 3. Stop praying to people other than God 4. Try to actually understand Protestants (which would require you to LISTEN) But y’all won’t do those things. You’ll continue to… 1. Lie about what the Catholic Church officially teaches 2. Refuse to listen 3. Beg the question 4. Lie about the fact that Catholics are far from united 5. Do mental gymnastics to get to the position the guy in the funny hat told you you had to believe
I couldn’t have said it any better myself
So all 3 of your points are ridiculous. No Protestant believes in an invisible church, Christianity as a whole is the church of Christ, not any one denomination like Catholicism. I’m Protestant and never ever heard Protestants say the church is invisible. Clear straw man. Second point scripture is obvious I don’t need a pope interpreting it for me or we end up worshiping Mary or praying to saints that can’t hear us in heaven. You act as if once in heaven they become omniscient and are able to hear millions of prays. God cares enough for us to give us scripture and made everyone smart enough to interpret it correctly. Either way for Catholics or Protestants scripture is number one, that can’t be argued. Third early church fathers made the canon of the Bible which was established around the first century that’s how all Christian’s know proper cannon. So all 3 points are faulty. When it comes to your comments on James the verse is obvious we are saved by grace alone through faith alone, that’s salvation, but one who truly loves God will mirror his actions and good works will abound. It’s not what gives us salvation but the fruits of our love. Lastly the Catholic Church did not officially form until 560 ad. The original churches were the lead church in Judea lead by James the brother of Jesus and from that was Eastern Orthodox, oriental, Ethiopian, and what would later be Catholicism. Not only that Paul’s letters prove there were many denominations that he talked to in order to straighten out core doctrine. They all had different traditions, which Paul said did not matter, just core doctrine. Those core doctrine are Christ is God who became man part of the trinity that died for our sins then physically resurrected for the forgiveness of sins and will come again. If we accept him as lord and savior we are saved. That is the core doctrine of Christianity. Which means Catholics are just one denomination of Christianity along with the various Protestant denominations, orthodox, and so on. I don’t want to confuse anyone as Mormons, JW’s, progressives, Unitarians, Muslims all do not hold to core doctrines so are not Christian. Otherwise all other denominations only have minor differences and all are the body of Christ. You see my friend you actually worship Catholicism more than Christ. It’s not the one true faith Christianity is the one true faith. Calling Catholicism the one true faith is nonsense. Oh and Peter was not the rock of the church the way Peter accepted Jesus as God through the Holy Spirit is the rock of the church.
WHY DID YOU REMOVE MY COMMENT? I PUT A LOT OF THOUGHT INTO IT!
I didn't :)
Cameron, it is becoming evident you have become out of balance. I feel bad for you. 🙏
Maybe save the sermon for after you convince me about the strategy 😏
What stops me is trying to imagine that a Spirit of humble Mary would appear to three children and ask to have a shrine built for her.
The Catholic Mary is very proud
@@Wgaither1 Proverbs 16:18 KJV - Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Jesus on the cross; It is finished. Catholics; No Jesus you're not enough i will finish it with my own works.
I find when I pray the rosary, Satan sometimes will attack me more. He truly hates it when we even look at a rosary.
Stay strong brother. He’s weaker than you think
I doubt it. If I'm not mistaken, you use the rosary to pray to Mary, yes? In doing so, you're replacing Jesus as mediator, with no biblical backing whatsoever. Satan is gonna let you have at it.
Protestantism's focus is on ME and not WE, so it is no surprise that there is no emphasis on sacrifice or martyrdom. This is also why many people fall for the WOF movement.
Your thumbnail threw me off. I thought this was a Kenny Burchard video when I clicked on it 😂😂😂
Haha!! That's pretty funny.
1Jn_2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. --- Jesus provided the teachers they were called prophets and apostles. They wrote the bible for us. Now if you want to teach you bring judgment upon your self. Jas 3:1 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. ----The foundation has been laid and the time comes where what you have built upon this foundation will be tested by fire. 1Co 3:10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
I’ve been looking for this video all my life! What’s the secret?? They say show me in the Bible, I oblige overwhelmingly in black and white, and they flip everything to fit their narrative. Been praying for them forever already. 🥵🥵🥵
Well said bro. I like the way you pointed to the saints, their lives are great testimony to the work of Jesus, and they all point to Him as they are in Him, as we all will be if we just keep the faith.
Thanks for the comment :) God bless you!
Take off your outer cloak, wrap a towel around your waist, and wash their feet. Humble, not proud. Loving, not with a malicious or condescending air. And also? I thought Vat. II covered this. Protestants are brethren. So, no souls are being saved, only an opportunity to know more and experience more about deep truths and glories and perhaps better steps of sanctification.
Thanks for the comment 😁 Why would I want to rob a Protestant of the opportunity to be fully Christian in the Catholic Church? Even assuming your interpretation of Vatican II is correct, I don’t want my Protestant brothers to settle for 60 or 70% of Christianity. I want them to have the fullness of the truth!
@@CameronRiecker There's no such thing as partly Christian. There IS partly practicing, partly serious. I have no problem with the wanting someone to experience the fullness or richness [or however is best to put it] of Christian living. Taking care not to "remove the crowns from the heads of people who are in Christ" is important. Causing others to stumble and such. And my interpretation of Vat. II has been informed by years of study with Cistercian clergy who are working at better catechesis and grace for Catholics.
Thankfully I didn’t need this in Australia. As a Catholic majority country, I never experienced anti-Catholic animosity or hate in all my time growing up and into adulthood or travelling extensively overseas for that matter. I had only ever met one Protestant in real life and he is still a close and cherished friend. We share the love we have for Jesus with each other and it never occurred to either of us to convert each other. It wasn’t until I started watching CZcams faith focussed videos that I came across the shocking and visceral hate that some “religions” espouse. I see it in the comments to all your videos. It’s quite sad. I never see Catholics treating others like that. I’ll use your ideas for this Cameron! Protestants need Christ’s one true church in their lives.
Protestant CULTS NOT religion’s. Protestant’s including the orthodox say with Satan WE WILL NOT SERVE the infallible magisterium of the holy Catholic Church therefore they are anathema - outside of salvation!
2 Tim 3:16 The word of God has the power along with the Holy Spirit. NO where does Jesus or his apostles teach that we need a "visible institution"
You'll never convert me no matter what you do or say. I can discern Satan's works and lies.
God bless you :)
Pride is a sin.
So maybe that’s why Peter denied Christ three times, he didn’t have the rosary
Your story about these young men praying the rosary has nothing to do with the rosary. Our human brains can think about only one thing at a time. Paul said in Philippines 4:8¶Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things. So yeah, the rosary will work but so will plenty of other things. Although your advice is heading in the right direction, it's just not quite there - I would stick with Paul's advice.
Millions have prayed the Rosary which changed their lives to holiness, think about it.
The rosary is very effective at eliminating mortal sin. Something Protestants struggle with a lot.
@@frekigeri4317 I guess you've removed the log from your own eye before moving onto the speck in the protestants eye.
@@clockchaser I was a Protestant, so maybe check yourself. A 52% divorce rate doesn’t come out of nowhere. A baptist pastor I know literally came back from the southern Baptist convention and was absolutely sickened by the gluttony alone that he saw there.
In Nigeria last year (2023), almost 7,000 Protestant Christians were martyred for their faith.
Thanks for the comment :) Good to know!
I do at least 3 a day.
Praise God :)
2 things. The rosary and a wife that actually does what she's suppose to do
Shouldn’t you have a conversation with Mary first?
You can, especially in the case of women that have been abused by men.
Any religion or cult that has to use trickery to convert people to their cult or religion, is demonic and doesn't need God, but false doctrine, which the Bible warns against. Using a gospel. That is not the true gospel, is a heresy.
1 John 5:11-13. Certainty. Grace, through faith, which is also evidenced by walking in the works he's prepared for us (Eph 2:8-10). The Book of Hebrews, read as a whole, in context, helps a lot as well. One does not have to become Catholic to know that one is walking in his grace, and to have certainty that we have peace with Christ. That first passage listed says, "that you may *know.*" That said, blessings to you, Brother. As to clerics, that's a different set of factors. There is a strong emphasis among many Protestant churches on a life given to Evangelistic service. Thus, our clerics look like pastors, pastor's wives, missionaries, and other full- and part-time ministers of the gospel. Sometimes I think that I would like to live my life given completely over to prayer and worship and study. But that is not the call of God on my life in this season (here on Earth). He has called me to go, to share, to minister, to teach, to bring his healing touch. It's contant sacrifice in a different way than the sacrifices made by Catholic clerics. Nor do I see Catholics and Protestants in competition or in a necessary conflict. The different denominations were once described together as a ship made of different parts. There is the rudder, the sails, the galley, and so forth, each performing a different yet contributive function to the whole. We serve one God, in Christ Jesus, as part of his one Body. Again, blessings to you.
How to convert a born again believer in Christ to a believer in the roman Catholic church ?
Thanks for the comment :) There is only one Church founded by Jesus.
@@CameronRiecker There is only one church and that is made up of all the believers in Christ. Jesus never named His church but He is the head of it and we the believers are the body of it.
You said that the orthodox church also has apostolic succession therefore they have authority to speak on scripture, but there are fundamental differences between the orthodox church and the Catholic Church who has the final authority there? I agree your question who has final authority on Scripture is tough and it’s something I have to think about. But I’m confused what authority you say the Catholic Church has over the orthodox Church.
You’re 1 John passage said nothing about establishing “new sects” what? You just added that is not in there.
Its his’ which is the different one 😂
Love ur videos man. Ur so wise and u speak simply and clearly
God bless you!! Thank you for the support 😄
You’re 1 John passage said nothing about establishing “new sects” what? You just added that in
The vast majority of Protestant churches have an ecclesiastical structure. We just don’t believe that the leaders are infallible. This is another strawman. You can argue that we don’t have the authority to establish ecclesiastical leadership. That’s a different argument, but to say we just like randomly organize ourselves and interpret the Bible we want is just not true there’s rigorous debate and a process called Jesus and systematic theological study of scripture. It’s not just it’s whatever you feel. Again, you can say that we don’t have the authority to do that that’s fine but you’re not presenting the protestant system correctly.
In the same way that you understand that the host is not the church of God even though you call it the body you’re consuming is Jesus. We can differentiate that when you say church but I t could also mean group of believers. You don’t have to accept that argument but you’re conflating two different things you say when he said church, he literally means an organization, not somethingnot something invisible. I’ve never personally heard it called something invisible. We’ve always just said the church is the collection of believers. That feels like a straw man
I haven't finished reading her diary, but I remember this. I love how she puts get devotion to Christ into words. So beautiful
God raises up some amazing Saints 😄
I like this guy. No matter how many bashes he gets in the comments, he stays humble. Blessed are those who are persecuted in the name of Jesus. Keep on keeping on! 😊
God bless you! Thank you for saying this! The majority of my viewers and amazing and very kind but there are a few negative ones!
Humble? He throws straw man fallacies like grenades and has arguments that are so stretched they would make a rubber band blush. His entire argument "destroying the protestants" was saying they had to believe that Jesus didn't care what their beliefs were. The reality of it couldn't be more opposed. Seriously, even if you don't agree with Sola Scriptura, one tiny look would show how insane his take is! Protestants truly focus on holy scripture as the sole authority for doctrine. You know, THOSE Holy Scriptures? The Bible? The Word of God? The teachings of Jesus Christ himself? It's pretty clear and fairly blunt, actually. Yea this dude is trying to say protestants DON'T practice Sola Scriptura, yet has a problem with them because he believes they DO practice Sola Scriptura. Also, for some strange reason, he has never answered me if he accepts Jesus as his perfect, all-sufficient savior. For someone claiming to be Christian, that is quite the question to dodge.
@@Axel-zc6xj I would rather believe on the extensive research of Dr. Kenneth Howell, Theologian and a former protestant than what you are claiming. All non-denomination churches are products of schism whom Jesus condemns. This is also very clear with St. Pauls teaching to the Corinthians. This guy is telling the truth with his stand about the catholic church and teachings. I don't expect you to believe though because how can you understand when at the first place, your fathwr Luther and Calvin steongly wants to remove 7 books from the original bible that the church fathers are protecting. So no matter how you elevate yourselves on how brilliant you are in interpreting the Bible, it's lacking. Anyway, we catholics pray that the scales of your eyes will be remived by Jesus so that you'll see the truth just infornt of your noses.
I'm only 1:05 in, but you're already starting from wrong. Not all Protestants believe in Sola Scriptura, or any of the Soli, in fact, MOST Protestants do not subscribe to Sola Scriptura.
So, the whole video is based on your wrong understanding of how Protestantism works. What a surprise. How about trying to show why Protestants would gain anything by submitting to Rome, rather than trying to dunk with faulty knowledge.
Jesus loves u trust in Jesus’ sacrifice, resurrection, and burial and u will be saved not of works Ephesians 2:8-9
Yes BUT Jesus used the example of 2 perfect who he thought had perfect faith and were most definitely saved otherwise he wouldn’t have used them as examples. Naaman the leper and the widow of zeraphath. BOTH were not Jews and BOTH had zero connection to Israel and its Law. They’re in heaven because they believed in no other God but the God of Israel
What do you say when someone brings up the ongoing Catholic church abuse crisis ???
It’s not an ongoing crisis as it’s been dealt with. Unfortunately, pedophilia & sexual abuse of others has infiltrated all aspects of society. Do you really think satan would not try to destroy Gods Only One True Apostolic Catholic Church? Judging Gods Church by the actions of a few is like judging the ocean by a few waves. We are far greater than that, we are The Bride of Jesus Christ, His One True Catholic Church!
The fact that it’s literally worse everywhere else.
