Amen. I’m a convert to Catholicism. I was a non denominational Christian. And an anti-catholic. I share this journey on a video on my channel. 🙏🏽 God bless you all.
@@susanajuarez2854 "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Do not be afraid! Ask the Holy Spirit for courage and guidance. I know it may be scary, but keep asking God for direction. Just know that the Catholic Church welcomes you with open arms. 🙏✝️ I recommend praying the rosary and asking Mother Mary for assistance.
@William Cloud I believe you got it all wrong. I'm not into lengthy cut and paste discussions and if I ever quote someone I'll make sure the source is reliable and I'll make sure to provide the source with specific pages, etc...so that those who want to check it out for validity will be able to do so. Otherwise it's all hoax. The Compendium of the Cathecism of the Catholic Church is readily available on line for you to check. No where there can you find the teachings you accused are being taught by the Catholic Church. For any questions regarding the Catholic faith you can check Catholic Answers. Peace be with you.
I left the Catholic Church 32 years ago. I forgive that church for the harm done to me as a young boy. And now I have the best relationship with the Lord I ever had! Praise God! I am so loved and chosen by God! And I have learned so much and served Him in many ways! All Glory to God for this wonderful journey I have been thru…..I pray to do more for the Lord….He has saved me by my faith in Him!
@@MelaniesManicures I think, he is healed, when I understand his comment right. What religion cannot do, the Lord does it. But religious spirits are very attractive to people. Yeshua and Paul warned us of deception. A religion that does not bring you closer to the Lord Yeshua, controls and manipulates, is wrong. The word of God, Yeshua, is the only way, truth and life, no one comes to the Father, but by Him. We all need the Holy Spirit to guide us into truth.

@eric bastian 1 Peter 5:13 "she who is in Babylon elect together with you" Paul's epistle to the Romans is addressed to a church. That Paul did not establish. Romans 16:20 "the God of Peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly." Satan is still doing his thing ...So this is still an ongoing saga! ... notice that the Roman Church was not amongst the seven churches dissolved in Revelations! ... Daniel chapter 2 ... the fourth kingdom made of iron and clay. All Scholars agree that this is Rome.. Daniel 2:44 in the days of these Kings the GOD of Heaven will set up a Kingdom. Which shall never be destroyed. And the Kingdom SHALL NOT BE LEFT TO OTHER PEOPLE... a lot of people argue that this will be in the second coming. But if you read the entire passage it says that His Kingdom will break into pieces... God's kingdom will not break into pieces in the second coming! 107 AD Ignatius of Antioch issued seven letters to churches on his way to martyrdom. One of his letters is to the church in Rome... and then another letter uses the phrase Catholic Church! ... if you follow Paul's Biblical timeline when he was at Antioch... you will see that Ignatius learned from Paul and the other Apostles directly! Ignatius would have had to fly contrary to the Apostles teaching on his way to death... if what Ignatius said wasn't true... nobody dies for a lie! Hope this helps my friend! GOD Bless you and your family!!!
@eric bastian I've seen this video. The service was the Easter Mass in Latin. The word "lucifer" in Latin means "Daystar" (2 Peter 1:19). As to your assertion that the Church started 300 years after Peter died... No, it had to be underground until then. Most of the early popes were martyred. It was a death sentence to be Christian in the early part of the Church history. We are Catholic because Catholic means Universal. We are Roman Catholic because Peter established the Church in Rome. Peter was crucified upside down in Rome and is buried there (as is Paul).
I understood the value of being a Catholic. I am a cradle Catholic and learnt many scriptures and found this is the True Church. Thanks to the Protestants which made me to research about the truth. Especially regarding the Church, holy eucharist, Apostolic succession, origin of Bible and many historical evidence of the Church. Thanks to the Holy spirit who led me to the Truth and remain with me all the time.
@@christiesworld90: Is it also truly expressed by inventing an infallible "holy" inquisition to BTK all the "heretics" and Protestants? What gruesome torture instruments did Jesus design and build to slowly torture unbelievers to death? Like a skull crusher or an iron maiden? Or how about the rack to pull your limbs apart?
Roman Catholicism started under emperor Constantine by Eusebius. It was Eusebius that did the rewriting of history to centralize power around Rome. The official beginning of the Roman Catholic church occurred in 590 AD, with Pope Gregory I. This time marked the consolidated of lands controlled by authority of the pope, and thus the church's power, into what would later be known as "the Papal States." The RCC scales with society too much, trying to evolve its self with societal constructs rather than standing its ground as a light of the truth. Romans 12:2 ESV Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. The RCC doesn’t believe in mind renewal by Gods Causality but by Mans self corporation.
Praise God. This video, pretty much sums up everything related to arguments concerning multiple religions, Christianity being the fullness of religious truth, and Catholicism being the truest expression of Christianity. May Christ lead ignorant children, back to the full communion with the Catholic Church, the true Church He founded upon.
Uhhh... No. Christ founded his "church" while he was alive on earth. The Roman Catholic church was founded more than 300 years after Christs resurrection by a nonchristian Roman.
Ben Welll history says there were Catholics way before the year 300. If Catholics are not true than you are in trouble because the new testament was put together by Catholics.
For 27 years I was a Baptist in the Protestant sect of Christianity. Praise God at 28 years old I am now a Catholic. Even better, my wife is a Catholic now too. Praise God!

Early Christians like Saint Ignatius of Antioch who was personally instructed by St John the apostle attested to the hierchial and sacramental nature of the church. Yes there were heritics even then who claimed they knew more than the apostles. St Ignatius stated that only the only the Catholic Church has the charisma of the truth.
Actually he did, Matthew 16:13-19. Jesus started the Catholic church in 33ad. The Catholic label came around 107ad. Catholic is not in bible because it came after scriptures we written.
We can be sure because Jesus Himself built it and it has the marks and attributes of the One True Church! One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic. Authority, Infallibility and Indefectibility.
Dana Ashlie exodus 20 >God's told no idols .in exodus 25>god tells them build ark of the covenant that has two cherubim on each side of the ark .. cherubim is an idol with human head ,lions body and wings..WHAT DO YOU CALL THAT ? isn't that an idol? did god get confused in exodus 25 then ?
Dana Ashlie What idols? Those idols you mention are Gods family, do your homework. Purgatory is in the bible, the thing is Protestant bibles are incomplete.
Dana Ashlie The Pope is not a “prophet” and that has NEVER been a claim...perhaps you are confusing Mormonism with Catholicism. He is, however, the Bishop of Rome and the successor of Peter the Apostle. That is fact and can be traced through history. Peace be with you.
Dana Ashlie But what if you are wrong about the beast and actually blaspheming the body of Christ, what if when Jesus said “Let there be no divisions among you” he knew what would become of the Catholic Church (he did), and we are to not call anyone father as in God above, do you not call your Dad your Father? In ancient times the patriarch of the family was also the priest, in congregations we call our priest father for they are as if our elders in faith, we are not praying to Mary but rather asking for her to pray for us, are you sinning when you ask other church members to pray for you? If we have eternal life how is it so crazy to ask a saint to pray for you? You should try and understand our theology before you listen to ideas that may actually be coming from the beast itself.
From the Catechism of the Catholic Church 841 The Church's relationship with the Muslims. "The plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator, in the first place amongst whom are the Muslims; these profess to hold the faith of Abraham, and together with us they adore the one, merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day."
Had a thought: number one concern when someone comes through ER bleeding to death is to stop the bleeding and save that life. If an atheist asks me what Christian religion is the right one, I'm more concerned about stopping the bleed, I think. Maybe I'm too naive, but if I'm falling off a building and someone gives me a saving hand, I wouldn't stop midway to ask which hand was reaching out to keep me safe! Thanks for this video! You inspire so much thought and insight!
"If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9 And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” Act 16:31 Who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began. Timothy 1:9 And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Acts 2:21 I think you have to denounce God's word if you are distorting his gospel.
Olivia Pyne 1 Corinthians 14:1-6 this is why Catholics don’t speak in tongues. Not that we can’t do it but the teaching of edifying the church instead of oneself. We are universal...
I just converted- God reveals and works through the sacraments- making Jesus even more personal!! Jesus left us the Catholic Church- people don’t like it because they rebel against authority.
They went out from us, but they were not of us. 1 John 2:19. Come out of her, my people, that you not be partakes of her sins, & lest you receive of her plagues. Revelation 18:4
The church isn't sinful...but human beings are because no one is perfect...Under the guidance of the holy spirit the church always teaches ppl to attain holliness...It never teaches people to commit sin... Church is for the sinners jz like the hospital is for the sick. So many die in the hospital too...but tht doesn't mean ppl stop seeking medical help... Despite imperfect ppl in the church...there are so many good christians in the church through out the hsitory...plus did you knw the Catholic Church is one of the largest charitable organisations.. Also, there's so many imperfections in other organisations ..jz tht they never made it to the news... it always seem to be sensational to hear the sins of imperfect ppl in The Catholic church...
as a catholic i believe the one church that Jesus established. because i believe Jesus. Not humans like Martin Luther or king James and their churches.
spiffinz this is a grade school misconception. The pope is not infallible. There are times where a pope may present a teaching as infallible (such as the immaculate conception) but the pope himself is not infallible in everything he says.
@@jenarana4788: But immaculate means she was without sin. But she herself rejoiced in _her_ Saviour (Luke 1:47) and only a sinner needs one of those. (You're not saved from being immaculate.) And she made a sin offering of two turtle doves thereby acknowledging her guilt as a sinner like everyone else. Luke 2:21-24. So Mary clearly expresses herself as being a sinner grateful for a Saviour from sin, but the infallible pope disagrees with Mary's truth. So what does infallible mean? Low down liar??
Jesus found the Catholic Faith!! The Church Fathers expressed the Catholic doctrine. The Protestants opposed their doctrine. The sacraments, the Holy Eucharist etc.
Jesus never said to trust only the Scriptures but to LISTEN to Him and to do what He asks! Yes, Jesus is WORD and He is not SCRIPTURES!! Jesus is the WORD MADE FLESH and it is a MISTAKE for a follower of JESUS CHRIST to think : “this is written/this is not written”. A Christian thinks in this way : is that more FAITH, more HOPE and more CHARITY/LOVE ?
Jesus Christ started The Catholic Church with His apostles. He renamed His apostle Peter (Rock in Aramaic), told him Matthew 16:18 And I say to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.” Matthew 28:18 And Jesus, drawing near, spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Matthew 28:19 Therefore, go forth and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Matthew 28:20 teaching them to observe all that I have ever commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, even to the consummation of the age.” Jesus appointed His apostles first Pope & Priests, gave THEM His authority, instituted Sacraments and commanded them to spread His Church Infallibly to the world. Jn 21:15-17, Eph 2:19-22, Jm 5:14-16, Jn 20:21-23, 2 Cor 5:18-19, Mt 18:18, 3:11, 19:4-6, 1 Cor 11:23-29, Jn 6:51-59, Lk 22:19-20-Jesus wanted everyone to be His One True Church, not break away. Jn 10:16, 17:20-27, Eph 4:5.
Pay attention : Those who wrote the Books of the GOSPEL are the same ones who founded the CHURCH (Saint John, Saint Luke, Saint Paul, Saint Peter, Saint James etc.). PLEASE let be logical with ourself : if someone accepts their writings, he must accept also THEIR CHURCH!
“Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 It doesn’t say Mary or Mohammad or anyone else but Jesus alone will take you to the Lord. God Bless :)
Hello. It is a difficult question to answer in a very limited time. One might also want to look at the miracles verified by the Catholic Church that cannot be explained by science for example the our Lady of Guadalupe. For many reasons these miracles within the Catholic Church are very difficult to explain but it is intellectually dishonest not to acknowledge them.
- 1:43 - When we say about Catholicism, that is is the one true religion - that shouldn't be taken to mean that all other religions are false. Religions admit degrees of truth [gives examples] - 3:47 - We come to a certainty, but it's a certainty that acts on the Holy Spirit in our hearts. ... This is God ... sending the spirit, helping us see that the Catholic Church has the word of God, the sacraments that God established, the authority that God established. - 6:48 - We find [unity of apostolic authority] in Catholicism.
@@bobbilderson8556 It is derived from the Greek word Biblia which means "little books." In several grammatical forms, the Greek words biblion and biblos occur more than 40 times in the Christian Greek Scriptures and are translated as "scrolls" or "books." Biblia was later used in Latin as a singular word, and from the Latin, the word "Bible" came into the English language. So yes, the Bible is in the Bible!
Nice video. I liked how the video said that Catholicism doesn't rest primarily on logical arguments (though they are useful for defending the faith). I used to be naiive thinking that if I presented the most logical arguments in social media communities like Theism vs Atheism discussions, I would win over at least some non-believers. I was sadly mistaken. You may win the argument but not the soul. Actual conversion requires the action of the Holy Spirit.
You are absolutely right that "actual conversion requires the action of the Holy Spirit". I believe Protestantism could never satisfy the intellect, however it's the heart that must be restless to activate the search for truth. I never can understand how Protestants can actually put down the church when it's the Catholic church that produces the saints. There are many good-living protestants who love the Lord and their neighbor, but honestly can't understand how they settle for the "sliver of the pie" while Catholicism has it all. Some of the "anti-catholic" statements made here are clearly ignorant of truth or not from a true Christian. I'll take a practicing, loving Muslim any day over a hateful Christian and who knows perhaps that Muslim could convert someday. I am at peace with other faiths, this is something I asked from the Lord along time ago, however I will defend my Catholic Faith in a heartbeat. Protestants cannot see the forest among the trees but it's like you said "conversion needs the Holy Spirit". In modern times I was always fascinated by the conversion story of Bernard Nathanson the famous "abortion doctor" who helped legalize abortion, then had a conversion; we just never know who or when conversion will be bestowed upon. Keep praying and being an example and best on your spiritual journey!!!
Descriptive names church in Jerusalem church in Antioch describe in different names church of Christ Jesus church and it is universal whole catholic for all nations and races.
Such certainty is based on faith, not reason. And that is how it should be. There is, and can be, no *proof*, based on reason or argument, for the notion that Catholicism is the one true religion. Because anything based on reason or argument can always be challenged, re-interpreted, revised, seen in a different light or from a different POV. Only faith is hard-wearing enough to resist being eroded by the acid of reason, which erodes everything, even itself. Faith ought to use reason, but cannot be built upon reason.
Bugsy TV. U cannot be christian n be catholic. Christians are baptised n born again. Catholics r only baptised but not born again. Water n oil do not mix. No unclean thing can enter heaven. All catholics r deceived. Bible says COME OUT OF HER. So seek the HSpirit.
The Lord himself said " One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism". Not many different churches, many different concepts of God, and not many different types of baptizing someone, etc, etc. He established 1 True Church and God can let us know what that is by following James 1:4. " If ye lack wisdom let me ask of God...,". If you are sincere he will let you know in his own way and time. A few things to look for in the True Church he himself established in these last days are. Organization (Prophets, Elders, Seventy, Patriarchs, Deacons, Priests, etc) are positions in his church, "Priesthood Authority" that can be traced (lineage) back to Christ thru the laying on of hands, Revelation or communication (living Prophets that live on the earth today), The True Church will bear his name (Jesus Christ). The Catholic Church is NOT that church or other Protestant churches just to be very clear. Put your trust in God and ask him to guide you and he will !!! Follow the guidance above, follow the promptings of the Holy Ghost in you, and rely on God for your answer.
Grace on god's part faith on our part. A certainty that rests on the holy spirit and of faith.what a bunch of BS. I feel bad for the many many people that have fell for this
@@rockyracoon9411 There's actually a lot of evidence supporting the existence and reality of God, the Bible, and the Catholic faith. Some people just don't know where to look, and others don't do genuine in-depth research into the evidence. For example, there's the scientifically unexplainable Eucharistic miracles (CZcams search “Inspired By Carlo Acutis - Scientific Evidence of Eucharistic Miracles”), the confirmed apparitions and related miracles of Mother Mary throughout history (Our Lady of Fatima, Lourdes, Guadalupe, Akita, and Kibeho for example), the incorrupt bodies of the Saints and medical miracles performed by the Saints for generations, the scientifically-unexplainable Tilma from Our Lady of Guadalupe, The Miracle of the Sun at Fatima (approx. 70k people, both atheist and religious, saw it AND Mother Mary predicted the end of WWI and the beginning of WWII during the apparition), The Our Lady of Kibeho apparition in which Mother Mary predicted the Rwandan Genocide, the near-death experiences in which people are pronounced dead on the operating table, float above their bodies, and can hear/see everything the doctors are saying/doing before entering a new realm in Heaven and meeting Jesus....The list goes on and on. I highly suggest looking into all of these examples, even though that's just a small portion of evidence! I don’t want to debate or argue, so I will leave you with this information to look into if you desire to do so.
You can be sure the RCC isn't the "one true religion" because it teaches a different Jesus then the Jesus of the Bible. The Jesus of RCC doesn't cleanse you from all sin and all un-righteousness. God the Son in His Word DOES! 1. 1371 says; The eucharistic sacrifice is also offered for the faithfully departed who “have died in Christ but are not yet wholly purified,” so that they may be able to enter the light and peace of Christ. God’s Word tells us that we can know we will be in Paradise with Christ when we die. 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John5:13 “I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.” Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified.
Just dig into church history and the early church fathers. You will find it to look a lot like Catholicism. Catholic means "Universal". It means it is open to all....Greek, Gentile, Jew etc. Jesus established it through the New Covenant in the New Testament. Actually all the Popes in history will follow you to the very beginning, which started with Peter, the first Pope.
I guess the unity of faith is the answer he gave. There was unity of faith at the tower of Babel and when they crucified Jesus. Unity is a horrible answer to why the Catholic Church is the one true church. Through history the majority has never been right. The one true church is people that have the testimony of Jesus and the commandments of God. John 14:15 if you love me keep my commandments.
Doesn't salvation all come down to the answer to one simple question? "Why do I deserve to enter Heaven." I don't think the answer is, "Because I'm Catholic" (or any other denomination)
Michael Wilson NOBODY deserves to enter heaven because god said everyone is a sinner. That’s right EVERYONE Romans 3:10 says : 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: But the gift of god is eternal life by the shedding of his blood over ALL OUR SINS ! so many times Jesus put a big emphasis on this but people don’t understand sin . 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; You need to understand sin . Did u know that even I small wrong thought is counted as a sin? If you sin once you are guilty of all ? (YES IT SAYS THAT IN THE BIBLE) You are going to stumble at that point if you think you’re “good enough” , since nobody is righteous in the eyes of god , but only those who have fully trusted in gods word , god sees them acceptable since they have taken the gift of god , and NOT threw it aside , instead accepted what he has done for us on the cross, and most of all , UNDERSTANDING that we cant save ourselves it is only through jesus we can get salvation Why do you think god gave people the commandments in the Old Testament ? To show us that we cannot keep them all , it is impossible . Even The nicest person on earth cannot go to heaven unless they put their faith and trust only in gods finished work on the cross , his only one sacrifice for all, because the only one without sin is Jesus and god doesn’t allow a single SPECK OF SIN in his kingdom I’m not sure what your faith is , but please read the bible for your own sake , preferably a king James version (the original one ) since all the other ones completely changed gods word , use an online bible if you don’t have one I urge you to find the truth , and u definitely have a point on the whole “Denomination” thing , god said himself that “his church “ was all Christians who have been saved (believers) and not some stone building built by men ruled by a pope who is a copycat version of Jesus , stealing gods authority Actually all truth comes down to one simple question : Church authority VS gods very own word and trust me the Roman Catholic authority has a lot of contradictions when it comes to gods word in the bible , and immediately turn to what the church says instead of what GOD says And gods word has NO contradictions and is without error , and if you believe otherwise then you don’t trust in god
@@WM_-lq9gb You have presented a false dichotomy due to your lack of knowledge of church teaching and scripture. Christ gave us a church, not a bible, the church instituted by Christ, through the holy spirit, gave you the canon of scripture. You cannot pick and choose between the church and scripture. They are not contradictory, but rather they work together in order to provide orthodox teaching to counter the heresies spewed by the many enemies of Christ and his Church. From your comment, it is clear that you have never actually understood the teachings of the church, but have heard about it from some biased protestant source. Take your own advice- go find the truth.
By the will of Christ, the Catholic Church is, in fact, mistress of truth: its function is to authentically express and teach the Truth which is Christ [...] the disciple is bound towards Christ Master TO THE DUTY TO KNOW EVER MORE FULLY THE TRUTH THAT HE RECEIVED FROM HIM, to announce it faithfully and to defend it energetically while refraining from any means contrary to the Spirit of the Gospel. (Extract from the book “365 Days of Hope” by Cardinal Nguyen Van Thuan)
I am sorry, but I have a question that I would like answered for all of us, Catholics. Is Jesus Christ the ONLY way, truth, and life as He said He is ? If this is true, as I have been taught through my Catholic faith, how is it that there is this increasing move (since Vatican II) of moving to all religions are one. The popes kissing the Quran, the unbelievers, being allowed to pray their books in the Vatican, pagan idols blessed and worshipped, with a full consent of Pope Francis? I find all questions to the Holy Father are turned off on all Vatican platforms and Pope Francis is refusing to answer these grave charges. Please answer these questions truthfully so we Catholics can be not lost in confusion by our supreme leaders of Jesus Christ's church.
My guess is these are false prophets and charlatans. These Pope's and bishops and Cardinals and mother superiors and etc, are All still human and fallible. Just my guess.
@@cheshire_skatkat9093 Actually I have been told that the pope is infallible by catholic doctrine. Seems convenient to flip flop on this when there is a conflict.

If you read the early church fathers and study the first century church you can see that it is identical to what Catholics do today and I want to stay with the church that Jesus founded, Amen
Then you should keep the Sabbath because Jesus and his followers did too, even after Jesus died and ascend back to heaven, his followers kept the Sabbath. Sunday worship was invented by the catholic. Not Jesus himself.
Matthew16:18...and upon this Rock I will build my church;...Jesus said 'MY CHURCH'..IT IS JESUS CHURCH!!...EPHESIANS 5:23-27...even as Christ is the 'HEAD' of the Church:and he is the 'SAVIOUR' of the BODY.Therefore as the CHURCH IS SUBJECT UNTO CHRIST,even as Christ also loved the CHURCHand gave himself for it:..That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,That he might present it to himself a glorious church,not having spot,or wrinkle,or any such thing;but that it should be holy and without blemish.CLEARLY...CLEARLY IT IS CHRIST CHURCH BUILD ON THE ROCK!!

1 Corinthians 10:4, ESV: "and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ." 1 So is Peter the Rock or Jesus
So, only one can be a Rock? Where does it say that? Consider that Peter was born Simon and Jesus changed his name to Peter (which means "rock") when he said that he would build his Church upon "this rock." Why would Jesus say that? Peter was to become the Vicar of Christ, to stand in the place of Christ after He ascended. In the verse that you quoted Paul was speaking of the Israelites in the wilderness and of the rock which Moses struck in order to bring forth water. The passage is speaking of forshadowing of baptism and the Eucharist.

In Revelation 2 and 3 Jesus addresses 7 different churches. Each church , except for Philadelphia is in err, and need to repent. The Catholic church is addressed in Thyratira. Jesus is rebuking them for following a docterine that venerates men such as mary, the saints, and the pope. Jesus is the only mediator, and YHWY is the only Father, Jesus says to call no one Father for we only have one Father in heaven. Pergamos is believers who follow other docterines than the Bible like the Kabbalah and Gnostism. Sardis is being rebuked for not believing in the Holy Spirit. Ephesus is rebuked for not following the commandments like Saturday shabbath, and the 7 holy feasts. Not following the commandments lead us into paganism like celebrating Christmas, which is worshipping the god Mithra, or Easter that is worshipping the goddess Ishtar. Every church has its rebukes.

Why be a Catholic, Protestant, or orthodox, when you can just follow Christ from the Bible? “No one goes through the father except through me.” I don’t care about following the pope or bishops or fathers, or praying to Mary, or saints, or the rosary. I pray to Jesus Christ, the one true father, not to any dead man or woman. I don’t need pomp and circumstance or ceremony, I need Jesus the savior. In the end you’re not judged on your denomination, you are judged on picking up your cross and following Jesus Christ. Follow Christ, not man. He is your savior.
Read the bible and you will understand why, Jesus created a church ( the Catholic Church) and gave Peter the keys to it, he also says he wants all Christian’s to be united.
@@bestshortclips18: Why would Jesus create a church that persecutes and kills _true_ Christians in an infallible "holy" inquisition? Did Jesus ever instruct His disciples on how to torture "heretics" to death?
If you are the one true church, why is Jesus not coming back to Rome instead of Jerusalem? The first true church started in Israel not Rome. Jesus is the rock the church is built upon. Protestants did not change the Sabbath, nor the second commandment. Read the King James bible. We believe in sola scriptura. God said it, I believe it and that settles it.
You need to read the ENTIRE thing about peter! It seems as if Christ was referring that the church is built upon the foundation of the fact that he reveals that he is true... it is based on, and he builds his church by revealing to people that he is the right way, one and true church... Christ asks him who the son of man is... uses the term Son of Man... then Peter is called Son of Jonah... what does that part mean? Well, i think Jesus is referring to himself and relating to others by that term because of the type of ministry and behavior that he was displaying. Ok.. so then he refers to Peter as the Son of Jonah.. relating to him, but its too ambiguous to understand the entire thing to draw a formal conclusion. I mean, it could be read one of two ways, and that part of the Bible is literally what either makes or breaks the authority claim the Catholic church has. You know, a lot of people claim to be the right real church, but only one of you is actually correct. All of the faithful i have no idea how any of them... because they often times look less intelligent than i do, how they know they have and can prove their church is in fact the right church to be going to. Its pure madness. This whole world is filled with everyone standing up, no one saying their wrong. Ill tell you this, all of you need to sit down, and one needs to make sure the others dont exist PERIOD. You are driving everyone totally crazy.
... im not talking about just in Christian circles either.. im talking across the board... all religions, all other stuff needs to resign. There needs to be someone who comes, totally destroys all question, and fixes everything. People keep asserting their beliefs... dying for their beliefs when they are just beliefs. I was led to Christ by a vision i saw in the sky, that is how i know to follow Christ.. other than that, i have utterly no idea how anyone would ever know for 100% hot air, deceitful people are everyone. I thank God i can at the very least rely and trust myself, and if i somehow was deceived, at least it wont be my fault.
Why do so many feel like they can straddle both Catholicism and paganism/witchcraft. The book is pretty clear on this. I need straight answers before I can approach/view Catholosism as a true monotheistic teaching that's not causing offence to our true and 'jealous' God. What's the connection. 'Tho shalt not suffer a witch to live.' Do Catholics out right reject Deuteronomy?
@@nosuchthing8 which were re-added to the ecumentical NIV for protestants i'll stick with my authorized versions of the textus receptus which matches the majority of found texts.
@@nosuchthing8 I've read maccabees The apocrypha is a selection of books which were published in the original 1611 King James Bible. These apocryphal books were positioned between the Old and New Testament (it also contained maps and geneologies). The apocrypha was a part of the KJV for 274 years until being removed in 1885 A.D. A portion of these books were called deuterocanonical books by some entities, such as the Catholic church. Many claim the apocrypha should never have been included in the first place, raising doubt about its validity and believing it was not God-inspired (for instance, a reference about magic seems inconsistent with the rest of the Bible: Tobit chapter 6, verses 5-8). Others believe it is valid and that it should never have been removed- that it was considered part of the Bible for nearly 2,000 years before it was recently removed a little more than 100 years ago. Some say it was removed because of not finding the books in the original Hebrew manuscripts. Others claim it wasn't removed by the church, but by printers to cut costs in distributing Bibles in the United States. Both sides tend to cite the same verses that warn against adding or subtracting from the Bible: Revelation 22:18. The word 'apocrypha' means 'hidden.' Fragments of Dead Sea Scrolls dating back to before 70 A.D. contained parts of the apocrypha books in Hebrew, including Sirach and Tobit [source]. Keep this in mind when reading the following apocryphal books. Martin Luther said, "Apocrypha--that is, books which are not regarded as equal to the holy Scriptures, and yet are profitable and good to read." (King James Version Defended page 98.)

Romans 16:20 "the God of Peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly." Satan is still doing his thing ...So this is still an ongoing saga! ... notice that the Roman Church was not amongst the seven churches dissolved in Revelations! ... Daniel chapter 2 ... the fourth kingdom made of iron and clay. All Scholars agree that this is Rome.. Daniel 2:44 in the days of these Kings the GOD of Heaven will set up a Kingdom. Which shall never be destroyed. And the Kingdom SHALL NOT BE LEFT TO OTHER PEOPLE... a lot of people argue that this will be in the second coming. But if you read the entire passage it says that His Kingdom will break into pieces... God's kingdom will not break into pieces in the second coming! 107 AD Ignatius of Antioch issued seven letters to churches on his way to martyrdom. One of his letters is to the church in Rome... and then another letter uses the phrase Catholic Church! ... if you follow Paul's Biblical timeline when he was at Antioch... you will see that Ignatius learned from Paul and the other Apostles directly!

"His death was perhaps part of the executions of Christians ordered by the Roman emperor Nero following the great fire in the city in 64 CE" The romans killed paul
But what about purgatory? What about Catholics seeing the pope’s decisions as infallible? What about changing the way you do the sign of the cross? (Instead of right to left you do left to right, not that that is horrible but just...why?) I understand a lot of the catholic teachings but not those... remember, the catholic and Orthodox Church was one in the past and orthodox became its own church mainly because Catholic Church wanted the pope to have all authority. To me it makes more sense that the Orthodox Church is the truth and the right way to live. Pls someone explain some of the things I mentioned, how do you justify it?
Keir Campbell thank you for your reply! I wish I could be Catholic and Orthodox at the same time because I have such a hard time choosing. Ultimately I feel more drawn to the Orthodox Church because of the liturgy but they both have more similarities than differences it seems like so it’s difficult.. wish they’d unite one day
Billions belong to false religions. only a few will find the truth. John 8:32 You will know the truth..... Matthew 7: 13-15 13 Go in through the narrow door; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be that go in unto it. 14 For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothings, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Jesus explained how to find the true religion. In Matthew 24: 14 "And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come." Who is PREACHING, in ALL the earth, about the KINGDOM for a WITNESS?

@eric bastian God bless you. And Thank God you came out of that satanic cult
@eric bastian I've seen this video. The service was the Easter Mass in Latin. The word "lucifer" in Latin means "Daystar" (2 Peter 1:19). As to your assertion that the Church started 300 years after Peter died... No, it had to be underground until then. Most of the early popes were martyred. It was a death sentence to be Christian in the early part of the Church history. We are Catholic because Catholic means Universal. We are Roman Catholic because Peter established the Church in Rome. Peter was crucified upside down in Rome and is buried there (as is Paul).
Messianic is my belief.
I understood the value of being a Catholic. I am a cradle Catholic and learnt many scriptures and found this is the True Church. Thanks to the Protestants which made me to research about the truth. Especially regarding the Church, holy eucharist, Apostolic succession, origin of Bible and many historical evidence of the Church. Thanks to the Holy spirit who led me to the Truth and remain with me all the time.
That's me too....I love being Catholic and well rooted. It's no doubt the truest expression of Christianity

Roman Catholicism started under emperor Constantine by Eusebius. It was Eusebius that did the rewriting of history to centralize power around Rome.
The official beginning of the Roman Catholic church occurred in 590 AD, with Pope Gregory I. This time marked the consolidated of lands controlled by authority of the pope, and thus the church's power, into what would later be known as "the Papal States."
The RCC scales with society too much, trying to evolve its self with societal constructs rather than standing its ground as a light of the truth.
Romans 12:2 ESV
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
The RCC doesn’t believe in mind renewal by Gods Causality but by Mans self corporation.
Praise God. This video, pretty much sums up everything related to arguments concerning multiple religions, Christianity being the fullness of religious truth, and Catholicism being the truest expression of Christianity. May Christ lead ignorant children, back to the full communion with the Catholic Church, the true Church He founded upon.
Uhhh... No. Christ founded his "church" while he was alive on earth. The Roman Catholic church was founded more than 300 years after Christs resurrection by a nonchristian Roman.

Yes there were heritics even then who claimed they knew more than the apostles. St Ignatius stated that only the only the Catholic Church has the charisma of the truth.
Actually he did, Matthew 16:13-19. Jesus started the Catholic church in 33ad. The Catholic label came around 107ad. Catholic is not in bible because it came after scriptures we written.

Dana Ashlie The Pope is not a “prophet” and that has NEVER been a claim...perhaps you are confusing Mormonism with Catholicism. He is, however, the Bishop of Rome and the successor of Peter the Apostle. That is fact and can be traced through history. Peace be with you.
Dana Ashlie But what if you are wrong about the beast and actually blaspheming the body of Christ, what if when Jesus said “Let there be no divisions among you” he knew what would become of the Catholic Church (he did), and we are to not call anyone father as in God above, do you not call your Dad your Father? In ancient times the patriarch of the family was also the priest, in congregations we call our priest father for they are as if our elders in faith, we are not praying to Mary but rather asking for her to pray for us, are you sinning when you ask other church members to pray for you? If we have eternal life how is it so crazy to ask a saint to pray for you? You should try and understand our theology before you listen to ideas that may actually be coming from the beast itself.

If an atheist asks me what Christian religion is the right one, I'm more concerned about stopping the bleed, I think.

Thank you , I needed some one to tell it nice and simple.. was feeling a little lost.
The nicest way to say it is the truth. There is no salvation outside of the Catholic Church.
But i hear and see about all of these orthodox and babtist ppl who can speak in tongues and work miracles and feel the holy spirit how is this then??
"If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.” Act 16:31
Who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began. Timothy 1:9
And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Acts 2:21
I think you have to denounce God's word if you are distorting his gospel.
5th horseman James 2:14-17
Olivia Pyne 1 Corinthians 14:1-6 this is why Catholics don’t speak in tongues. Not that we can’t do it but the teaching of edifying the church instead of oneself. We are universal...

Thank you for these very thoughtful and nuanced explanations! Incredibly helpful and the phrasing is very important!

If the Catholic church is the true church why is it so sinful.? The bible says by their fruits you shall know them. God bless 🕊🦋
The church isn't sinful...but human beings are because no one is perfect...Under the guidance of the holy spirit the church always teaches ppl to attain holliness...It never teaches people to commit sin... Church is for the sinners jz like the hospital is for the sick. So many die in the hospital too...but tht doesn't mean ppl stop seeking medical help...
Despite imperfect ppl in the church...there are so many good christians in the church through out the hsitory...plus did you knw the Catholic Church is one of the largest charitable organisations..
Also, there's so many imperfections in other organisations ..jz tht they never made it to the news... it always seem to be sensational to hear the sins of imperfect ppl in The Catholic church...

The truth means lacking in nothing. There is only one truth. Partly true ultimately means false.

You don't believe humans but the pope is infallible...after they made themselves
spiffinz this is a grade school misconception. The pope is not infallible. There are times where a pope may present a teaching as infallible (such as the immaculate conception) but the pope himself is not infallible in everything he says.
@@jenarana4788: But immaculate means she was without sin. But she herself rejoiced in _her_ Saviour (Luke 1:47) and only a sinner needs one of those. (You're not saved from being immaculate.) And she made a sin offering of two turtle doves thereby acknowledging her guilt as a sinner like everyone else. Luke 2:21-24. So Mary clearly expresses herself as being a sinner grateful for a Saviour from sin, but the infallible pope disagrees with Mary's truth. So what does infallible mean? Low down liar??

Nice framing of the question but he never got to an answer.
Jesus found the Catholic Faith!!

Jesus never said to trust only the Scriptures but to LISTEN to Him and to do what He asks! Yes, Jesus is WORD and He is not SCRIPTURES!!

Peter, in his first epistle, explains what Jesus meant when Jesus said, Thou are Peter and upon this rock. . .". Read 1 Peter 2:4-9.
Jesus Christ started The Catholic Church with His apostles. He renamed His apostle Peter (Rock in Aramaic), told him
Matthew 16:18 And I say to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
Matthew 16:19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.”
Matthew 28:18 And Jesus, drawing near, spoke to them, saying: “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
Matthew 28:19 Therefore, go forth and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Matthew 28:20 teaching them to observe all that I have ever commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, even to the consummation of the age.”
Jesus appointed His apostles first Pope & Priests, gave THEM His authority, instituted Sacraments and commanded them to spread His Church Infallibly to the world. Jn 21:15-17, Eph 2:19-22, Jm 5:14-16, Jn 20:21-23, 2 Cor 5:18-19, Mt 18:18, 3:11, 19:4-6, 1 Cor 11:23-29, Jn 6:51-59, Lk 22:19-20-Jesus wanted everyone to be His One True Church, not break away. Jn 10:16, 17:20-27, Eph 4:5.
Belief in the creator not one doctrine over another that is against God's will.
Pay attention : Those who wrote the Books of the GOSPEL are the same ones who founded the CHURCH (Saint John, Saint Luke, Saint Paul, Saint Peter, Saint James etc.). PLEASE let be logical with ourself : if someone accepts their writings, he must accept also THEIR CHURCH!
is very simple answer Because of Mary. She would take you to the Lord. If you give Her a Chance
Mary as depicted in the catholic faith is the "queen of heaven" mentioned in the bible.
“Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
John 14:6
It doesn’t say Mary or Mohammad or anyone else but Jesus alone will take you to the Lord. God Bless :)
Hello. It is a difficult question to answer in a very limited time. One might also want to look at the miracles verified by the Catholic Church that cannot be explained by science for example the our Lady of Guadalupe. For many reasons these miracles within the Catholic Church are very difficult to explain but it is intellectually dishonest not to acknowledge them.
Love you guys!

@@ginarosales9174 Where in the bible can you see the word bible?
@@bobbilderson8556 It is derived from the Greek word Biblia which means "little books." In several grammatical forms, the Greek words biblion and biblos occur more than 40 times in the Christian Greek Scriptures and are translated as "scrolls" or "books." Biblia was later used in Latin as a singular word, and from the Latin, the word "Bible" came into the English language. So yes, the Bible is in the Bible!
Nice video. I liked how the video said that Catholicism doesn't rest primarily on logical arguments (though they are useful for defending the faith). I used to be naiive thinking that if I presented the most logical arguments in social media communities like Theism vs Atheism discussions, I would win over at least some non-believers. I was sadly mistaken. You may win the argument but not the soul. Actual conversion requires the action of the Holy Spirit.
You are absolutely right that "actual conversion requires the action of the Holy Spirit". I believe Protestantism could never satisfy the intellect, however it's the heart that must be restless to activate the search for truth. I never can understand how Protestants can actually put down the church when it's the Catholic church that produces the saints. There are many good-living protestants who love the Lord and their neighbor, but honestly can't understand how they settle for the "sliver of the pie" while Catholicism has it all. Some of the "anti-catholic" statements made here are clearly ignorant of truth or not from a true Christian. I'll take a practicing, loving Muslim any day over a hateful Christian and who knows perhaps that Muslim could convert someday. I am at peace with other faiths, this is something I asked from the Lord along time ago, however I will defend my Catholic Faith in a heartbeat. Protestants cannot see the forest among the trees but it's like you said "conversion needs the Holy Spirit". In modern times I was always fascinated by the conversion story of Bernard Nathanson the famous "abortion doctor" who helped legalize abortion, then had a conversion; we just never know who or when conversion will be bestowed upon. Keep praying and being an example and best on your spiritual journey!!!
Descriptive names church in Jerusalem church in Antioch describe in different names church of Christ Jesus church and it is universal whole catholic for all nations and races.
Xmas Easter Sunday the pope lint none of these things found in the Bible where do they come from?
Such certainty is based on faith, not reason. And that is how it should be. There is, and can be, no *proof*, based on reason or argument, for the notion that Catholicism is the one true religion. Because anything based on reason or argument can always be challenged, re-interpreted, revised, seen in a different light or from a different POV. Only faith is hard-wearing enough to resist being eroded by the acid of reason, which erodes everything, even itself. Faith ought to use reason, but cannot be built upon reason.
I want answers
Jose Ben Israel pray to Christ Jesus to show you the truth and I too will pray for you to have your answers. Humble your heart and seek the truth
Is there anything one can’t believe based on faith?
I don’t think we will ever truly know in this life.
It’s not a religion it’s a denomination of the Christian religion!
I am a proud Christian as a Catholic, amend, Jesus is the King if Kings.
Bugsy TV. U cannot be christian n be catholic. Christians are baptised n born again. Catholics r only baptised but not born again. Water n oil do not mix. No unclean thing can enter heaven. All catholics r deceived. Bible says COME OUT OF HER. So seek the HSpirit.
The Lord himself said " One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism". Not many different churches, many different concepts of God, and not many different types of baptizing someone, etc, etc. He established 1 True Church and God can let us know what that is by following James 1:4. " If ye lack wisdom let me ask of God...,". If you are sincere he will let you know in his own way and time. A few things to look for in the True Church he himself established in these last days are. Organization (Prophets, Elders, Seventy, Patriarchs, Deacons, Priests, etc) are positions in his church, "Priesthood Authority" that can be traced (lineage) back to Christ thru the laying on of hands, Revelation or communication (living Prophets that live on the earth today), The True Church will bear his name (Jesus Christ). The Catholic Church is NOT that church or other Protestant churches just to be very clear. Put your trust in God and ask him to guide you and he will !!! Follow the guidance above, follow the promptings of the Holy Ghost in you, and rely on God for your answer.
Do you keep the comandments?

@@rockyracoon9411 There's actually a lot of evidence supporting the existence and reality of God, the Bible, and the Catholic faith. Some people just don't know where to look, and others don't do genuine in-depth research into the evidence. For example, there's the scientifically unexplainable Eucharistic miracles (CZcams search “Inspired By Carlo Acutis - Scientific Evidence of Eucharistic Miracles”), the confirmed apparitions and related miracles of Mother Mary throughout history (Our Lady of Fatima, Lourdes, Guadalupe, Akita, and Kibeho for example), the incorrupt bodies of the Saints and medical miracles performed by the Saints for generations, the scientifically-unexplainable Tilma from Our Lady of Guadalupe, The Miracle of the Sun at Fatima (approx. 70k people, both atheist and religious, saw it AND Mother Mary predicted the end of WWI and the beginning of WWII during the apparition), The Our Lady of Kibeho apparition in which Mother Mary predicted the Rwandan Genocide, the near-death experiences in which people are pronounced dead on the operating table, float above their bodies, and can hear/see everything the doctors are saying/doing before entering a new realm in Heaven and meeting Jesus....The list goes on and on. I highly suggest looking into all of these examples, even though that's just a small portion of evidence! I don’t want to debate or argue, so I will leave you with this information to look into if you desire to do so.
Would love to see a show where you debate this with a Protestant like say Mike Winger or someone else who is strongly anti-Catholic
You can be sure the RCC isn't the "one true religion" because it teaches a different Jesus then the Jesus of the Bible. The Jesus of RCC doesn't cleanse you from all sin and all un-righteousness. God the Son in His Word DOES!
1. 1371 says; The eucharistic sacrifice is also
offered for the faithfully departed who “have died in Christ but are not yet
wholly purified,” so that they may be able to enter the light and peace of
Christ. God’s Word tells us that we can know we will be in Paradise with Christ
when we die. 1 John 1:9 “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John5:13 “I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.” Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified.
No…your interpretation is wrong. Rcc is infallible.
great answer!! Thumbs up!!
IT'S the ONE true Religion, but it's not the Truth of the Creator YAH in the Law and Prophets.
He didnt really answer the question
Just dig into church history and the early church fathers. You will find it to look a lot like Catholicism. Catholic means "Universal". It means it is open to all....Greek, Gentile, Jew etc. Jesus established it through the New Covenant in the New Testament. Actually all the Popes in history will follow you to the very beginning, which started with Peter, the first Pope.
I guess the unity of faith is the answer he gave. There was unity of faith at the tower of Babel and when they crucified Jesus. Unity is a horrible answer to why the Catholic Church is the one true church. Through history the majority has never been right. The one true church is people that have the testimony of Jesus and the commandments of God. John 14:15 if you love me keep my commandments.
Doesn't salvation all come down to the answer to one simple question? "Why do I deserve to enter Heaven." I don't think the answer is, "Because I'm Catholic" (or any other denomination)
Michael Wilson NOBODY deserves to enter heaven because god said everyone is a sinner. That’s right EVERYONE
Romans 3:10 says :
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
But the gift of god is eternal life by the shedding of his blood over ALL OUR SINS ! so many times Jesus put a big emphasis on this but people don’t understand sin .
23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
You need to understand sin . Did u know that even I small wrong thought is counted as a sin? If you sin once you are guilty of all ? (YES IT SAYS THAT IN THE BIBLE) You are going to stumble at that point if you think you’re “good enough” , since nobody is righteous in the eyes of god , but only those who have fully trusted in gods word , god sees them acceptable since they have taken the gift of god , and NOT threw it aside , instead accepted what he has done for us on the cross, and most of all , UNDERSTANDING that we cant save ourselves it is only through jesus we can get salvation
Why do you think god gave people the commandments in the Old Testament ? To show us that we cannot keep them all , it is impossible . Even The nicest person on earth cannot go to heaven unless they put their faith and trust only in gods finished work on the cross , his only one sacrifice for all, because the only one without sin is Jesus and god doesn’t allow a single SPECK OF SIN in his kingdom
I’m not sure what your faith is , but please read the bible for your own sake , preferably a king James version (the original one ) since all the other ones completely changed gods word , use an online bible if you don’t have one
I urge you to find the truth , and u definitely have a point on the whole “Denomination” thing , god said himself that “his church “ was all Christians who have been saved (believers) and not some stone building built by men ruled by a pope who is a copycat version of Jesus , stealing gods authority
Actually all truth comes down to one simple question :
Church authority VS gods very own word
and trust me the Roman Catholic authority has a lot of contradictions when it comes to gods word in the bible , and immediately turn to what the church says instead of what GOD says
And gods word has NO contradictions and is without error , and if you believe otherwise then you don’t trust in god
@@WM_-lq9gb - I think our answer would be similar. JESUS!!!
@@WM_-lq9gb what contradiction do you think the Catholic Church has with the Bible?
@@WM_-lq9gb You have presented a false dichotomy due to your lack of knowledge of church teaching and scripture. Christ gave us a church, not a bible, the church instituted by Christ, through the holy spirit, gave you the canon of scripture. You cannot pick and choose between the church and scripture. They are not contradictory, but rather they work together in order to provide orthodox teaching to counter the heresies spewed by the many enemies of Christ and his Church. From your comment, it is clear that you have never actually understood the teachings of the church, but have heard about it from some biased protestant source. Take your own advice- go find the truth.
@@johnkatongo7517 lol are you seriously asking that?
By the will of Christ, the Catholic Church is, in fact, mistress of truth: its function is to authentically express and teach the Truth which is Christ [...] the disciple is bound towards Christ Master TO THE DUTY TO KNOW EVER MORE FULLY THE TRUTH THAT HE RECEIVED FROM HIM, to announce it faithfully and to defend it energetically while refraining from any means contrary to the Spirit of the Gospel. (Extract from the book “365 Days of Hope” by Cardinal Nguyen Van Thuan)
I am sorry, but I have a question that I would like answered for all of us, Catholics. Is Jesus Christ the ONLY way, truth, and life as He said He is ? If this is true, as I have been taught through my Catholic faith, how is it that there is this increasing move (since Vatican II) of moving to all religions are one. The popes kissing the Quran, the unbelievers, being allowed to pray their books in the Vatican, pagan idols blessed and worshipped, with a full consent of Pope Francis? I find all questions to the Holy Father are turned off on all Vatican platforms and Pope Francis is refusing to answer these grave charges. Please answer these questions truthfully so we Catholics can be not lost in confusion by our supreme leaders of Jesus Christ's church.
My guess is these are false prophets and charlatans. These Pope's and bishops and Cardinals and mother superiors and etc, are All still human and fallible. Just my guess.
@@cheshire_skatkat9093 Actually I have been told that the pope is infallible by catholic doctrine. Seems convenient to flip flop on this when there is a conflict.
Everyone needs to research, to think and to trust nobody
Exactly and don't read the bible...there's plenty of other books that give you all the answers ;) plus your not smart enough to intemperate it anyways.
If you read the early church fathers and study the first century church you can see that it is identical to what Catholics do today and I want to stay with the church that Jesus founded, Amen

Then you should keep the Sabbath because Jesus and his followers did too, even after Jesus died and ascend back to heaven, his followers kept the Sabbath.

Matthew16:18...and upon this Rock I will build my church;...Jesus said 'MY CHURCH'..IT IS JESUS CHURCH!!...EPHESIANS 5:23-27...even as Christ is the 'HEAD' of the Church:and he is the 'SAVIOUR' of the BODY.Therefore as the CHURCH IS SUBJECT UNTO CHRIST,even as Christ also loved the CHURCHand gave himself for it:..That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,That he might present it to himself a glorious church,not having spot,or wrinkle,or any such thing;but that it should be holy and without blemish.CLEARLY...CLEARLY IT IS CHRIST CHURCH BUILD ON THE ROCK!!

Jesus IS the Head of the Catholic Church. If you want a deep dive on the evidence, here you go: www.catholic.com/magazine/print-edition/the-church-christ-founded
1 Corinthians 10:4, ESV: "and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual Rock that followed them, and the Rock was Christ." 1
So is Peter the Rock or Jesus
So, only one can be a Rock? Where does it say that? Consider that Peter was born Simon and Jesus changed his name to Peter (which means "rock") when he said that he would build his Church upon "this rock." Why would Jesus say that? Peter was to become the Vicar of Christ, to stand in the place of Christ after He ascended. In the verse that you quoted Paul was speaking of the Israelites in the wilderness and of the rock which Moses struck in order to bring forth water. The passage is speaking of forshadowing of baptism and the Eucharist.
Jesus is the rock! ❤
Why would Jesus die on the cross for us and give His glory to a human? He shares His glory with no one! It is in the Bible
josue torres ask Jesus what He said...look it up in the Bible
@@christygallegos3598 because from the beginning God wanted to share His glory... He is not selfish like humans... Dats y he made Adam and eve the king and Queen of all Earth... He could have stopped us from havin free will... But He never did.. He is a God also.. He is a kind God...
The important is u believe in him some reiligions they are not believe jesus his the son of god.If u are a a catholic since birth be stand that until death becoz since we are born in that religion so be it.until death.i will be catholic since when i born until i Will die.
At our seminary in india, liberal priests tell us that all religions are same
In Revelation 2 and 3 Jesus addresses 7 different churches. Each church , except for Philadelphia is in err, and need to repent. The Catholic church is addressed in Thyratira. Jesus is rebuking them for following a docterine that venerates men such as mary, the saints, and the pope. Jesus is the only mediator, and YHWY is the only Father, Jesus says to call no one Father for we only have one Father in heaven. Pergamos is believers who follow other docterines than the Bible like the Kabbalah and Gnostism. Sardis is being rebuked for not believing in the Holy Spirit. Ephesus is rebuked for not following the commandments like Saturday shabbath, and the 7 holy feasts. Not following the commandments lead us into paganism like celebrating Christmas, which is worshipping the god Mithra, or Easter that is worshipping the goddess Ishtar. Every church has its rebukes. Philadelphia and Sardis are the 2 that are not following false docterines becasue they follow the commandments of YHWY, have faith in Yeshua, stick to the Bible only, do the works of the Holy Spirit and spread the gospel and show brotherly love.....but i will say that other then this rebuke for Thyratira following this docterine, the Catholic church is wonderful :):):)God Bless!!!
I praise God! No one else.
Saito we do too but we remember our brothers and sisters in heaven ;)
Very passive method of arriving to the objective truth that the CC is the true Church. We have the fullness of truth, therefore be bold and zealous
Why be a Catholic, Protestant, or orthodox, when you can just follow Christ from the Bible? “No one goes through the father except through me.” I don’t care about following the pope or bishops or fathers, or praying to Mary, or saints, or the rosary. I pray to Jesus Christ, the one true father, not to any dead man or woman. I don’t need pomp and circumstance or ceremony, I need Jesus the savior. In the end you’re not judged on your denomination, you are judged on picking up your cross and following Jesus Christ. Follow Christ, not man. He is your savior.
Jesus started one church…Catholic. Thats why.
Read the bible and you will understand why, Jesus created a church ( the Catholic Church) and gave Peter the keys to it, he also says he wants all Christian’s to be united.
@@bestshortclips18: Why would Jesus create a church that persecutes and kills _true_ Christians in an infallible "holy" inquisition? Did Jesus ever instruct His disciples on how to torture "heretics" to death?
Good answer
If you are the one true church, why is Jesus not coming back to Rome instead of Jerusalem? The first true church started in Israel not Rome. Jesus is the rock the church is built upon. Protestants did not change the Sabbath, nor the second commandment. Read the King James bible. We believe in sola scriptura. God said it, I believe it and that settles it.
Jesus started Catholic church.
You need to read the ENTIRE thing about peter! It seems as if Christ was referring that the church is built upon the foundation of the fact that he reveals that he is true... it is based on, and he builds his church by revealing to people that he is the right way, one and true church... Christ asks him who the son of man is... uses the term Son of Man... then Peter is called Son of Jonah... what does that part mean? Well, i think Jesus is referring to himself and relating to others by that term because of the type of ministry and behavior that he was displaying. Ok.. so then he refers to Peter as the Son of Jonah.. relating to him, but its too ambiguous to understand the entire thing to draw a formal conclusion. I mean, it could be read one of two ways, and that part of the Bible is literally what either makes or breaks the authority claim the Catholic church has. You know, a lot of people claim to be the right real church, but only one of you is actually correct. All of the faithful i have no idea how any of them... because they often times look less intelligent than i do, how they know they have and can prove their church is in fact the right church to be going to. Its pure madness. This whole world is filled with everyone standing up, no one saying their wrong. Ill tell you this, all of you need to sit down, and one needs to make sure the others dont exist PERIOD. You are driving everyone totally crazy.
... im not talking about just in Christian circles either.. im talking across the board... all religions, all other stuff needs to resign. There needs to be someone who comes, totally destroys all question, and fixes everything. People keep asserting their beliefs... dying for their beliefs when they are just beliefs. I was led to Christ by a vision i saw in the sky, that is how i know to follow Christ.. other than that, i have utterly no idea how anyone would ever know for 100% hot air, deceitful people are everyone. I thank God i can at the very least rely and trust myself, and if i somehow was deceived, at least it wont be my fault.

The apocrypha is a selection of books which were published in the original 1611 King James Bible. These apocryphal books were positioned between the Old and New Testament (it also contained maps and geneologies). The apocrypha was a part of the KJV for 274 years until being removed in 1885 A.D. A portion of these books were called deuterocanonical books by some entities, such as the Catholic church.
Many claim the apocrypha should never have been included in the first place, raising doubt about its validity and believing it was not God-inspired (for instance, a reference about magic seems inconsistent with the rest of the Bible: Tobit chapter 6, verses 5-8). Others believe it is valid and that it should never have been removed- that it was considered part of the Bible for nearly 2,000 years before it was recently removed a little more than 100 years ago. Some say it was removed because of not finding the books in the original Hebrew manuscripts. Others claim it wasn't removed by the church, but by printers to cut costs in distributing Bibles in the United States. Both sides tend to cite the same verses that warn against adding or subtracting from the Bible: Revelation 22:18. The word 'apocrypha' means 'hidden.' Fragments of Dead Sea Scrolls dating back to before 70 A.D. contained parts of the apocrypha books in Hebrew, including Sirach and Tobit [source].
Keep this in mind when reading the following apocryphal books. Martin Luther said, "Apocrypha--that is, books which are not regarded as equal to the holy Scriptures, and yet are profitable and good to read." (King James Version Defended page 98.)
