Division and confusion are very powerful tools of satan keep teaching the truth brother
Thank you for the lesson.
Church tradition is that our church which is the body of Christ began on Pentecost. That was the gospel of the kingdom church.
Our church began with the Apostle Paul. Our gospel is found in I Corinthians 15:1-4.
Our belief of the gospel of the grace of God gives us eternal salvation.
Our ministry is the Ministry of Reconciliation found in II Corinthians 5:18-21.
I am thankful to God that He has allowed me to share the gospel with you today.
Very good content. Thank you.
The canon is a list of authoritative books not an authoritative list of books. No special group pronounced them authoritative, they simply recognized what Christians of the time already knew.
To them when they say the husband of one wife that is only one wife. Only married once. They will also tell you that you have to understand the church was in its infancy at that time so it's not going to look quite the same as it does now. Even a baby being born into this world does not look the same as that person 20 years later looks. It may have similarities but the person will look vastly different so they say the same with the vow of celibacy that came later and looks different . There are some Bishops in the Catholic Church who are married because they came from denominations same way with deacons but once their wife passes on they cannot get married again. Hence the teaching of only one wife .
Trying to be fair here but most churches that are autonomous say their final Authority is the word of God but how does that work out? Because people can't agree on what the Bible teaches especially the New Testament there are divisions even amongst Churches of Christ in many areas so even what is written has to have some kind of authority and has to be interpreted correctly but that doesn't seem to happen very much.
There is also division within the Catholic church. There is also the disfellowship of the Orthodox church.
@@dsvet can you name any?
Catholic Church is run from top to bottom so it's harder to have division
John 21:25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.
As I appreciate it, the Catholic Church is historically and universally credited for bringing the canon of scripture together. I’ve yet to see this challenged. I suppose they could say, if we can be trusted by you with the canon of New Testament scripture, why shouldn’t we likewise be trusted by you with oral tradition?
The Catholics made up they assembled the canon. Another false claim. Proof is the catholic canon has the Apocrypha which is not the word of God but a book of fables.
The Bible is not an authoritative list of books, rather It's a list of authoritative books and that distinction is crucial. The Catholic Church did not give authority to the books, after all the books were inspired by God and therefore had their own authority when they were written, the church simply recognized. that Authority that was already present in the books. Here's an analogy That might be helpful: Let's say we're going to put together a list of the greatest NBA players of all time. Of course on everyone's list is the name Michael Jordan; now, I want you to notice something, Michael Jordan wasn't great because he was chosen for the list, rather He was chosen for the list because he was great already, the list simply recognizes that reality. In a similar way the books of the Bible weren't authoritative merely because they were chosen by the church rather They were chosen by the church because they were authoritative already. The church no more gave us the New Testament Canon then Sir Isaac Newton gave us the force of gravity Newton did not create gravity but recognized it
@@zritel.viewer I agree but why is the Catholic Church almost universally credited for bringing the New Testament canon together into a single source (faithful to the original mind you) while simultaneously usurping the Lord’s church. It just seems a bit dubious is all.
@@zritel.viewer The apocrypha is not Gods Holy Bible yet catholics added un-inspired fiction to the Sacred scriptures. Proverbs 30:6 *add thou not unto Gods word lest He reprove thee and thou be found a liar* Catholicism is pro-addition, God is against adding to His word. I believe the Bible over men.
@@bellcoolmountain6650 I'm not Catholic, but the claim that they added the apocrypha books is false. Those books were in the Septuagint, the OT that the early church used, the OT that Jesus and the apostles quoted from. Those books were around before the church. In fact, they were always listed with the rest of the books of the Bible until the protestant reformation. Look into it.
Couldn't you also use Galatians in this argument?
Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Galatians 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
I saw a video on this by a Catholic teacher trying to explain it. The channel is called how to be a Christian, and he’s a really good teacher, but… those verses you just mentioned is where I had to turn him off. His response to those verses was, how can we know what gospel was delivered to the church in Galatia? Because it doesn’t say what the gospel was that was delivered to them. I was like what? Isn’t it safe to assume it was no different than the Gospel we have from Matthew Mark Luke and John? Otherwise, now we’re assuming there’s possibly a difference between the apostles gospels ! I never got a response from them though.
The rituals of the RCC began with Jesus. Jesus was baptized so the RCC also carries out baptism. Jesus urged to forgive, so they forgive. Jesus ate the Last Supper, so the RCC take the holy eucharist/communion. All these are now become the traditions of the RCC.
Show one authority that allows for infant baptism please. Show also where transubstantiation was commanded please. If you could, also show where Divine Unction and Purgatory are given by Christ's commands, inferences or examples. Could you also show us who are "saints" and who is our High Priest and who is our intermediary for prayers. Also, you use the word "Rituals". What is the difference between ritual and tradition.
@@thedynamicsolo4232 You are already wrong to deny baptism for infants! How dare you don't allow infants to be baptized? Jesus would like all to be baptized from baby so that they receive salvation as early as possible! Baptism of infants is possible just like the baptism of the dying old people who are about to die.
It's a shame there is still so much confusion. I ask my protestant brothers and sisters to study the history of the Catholic Church through sources which come from the beginning of the church - Catholic history, 1500 years before Protestants appeared. And Catholics don't believe 'tradition is the word of God' as he said. As Christians, the truth is everything... so please try to get it right or it's not the truth. :(
"The truth is everything" can you please define that? It looks like a long and scandalous string of men claiming to be the "physical representation of Jesus Christ on the earth" or a "Vicar of Christ". This office was never given in the scriptures. It all boils down to all the manuscripts that are in agreement (over 58,000 of them) or the laws, bulls, decrees, canons that came after the manuscripts. Neither the Waldenses or the Albigenses practiced any RCC traditions, but were murdered by the RCC and their inquisitions. Watch "Tares among the wheat" and how the Catholic church "mysteriously" found both the OT and NT in Greek with VOn Tischendorf who reported back to pope Gregory, but the manuscripts needed over 40K "corrections" in order for them to line up with the RCC. That scandal alone with the RCC makes me wary of its beginnings and past, present and future now that Francis has said "love is love" and is removing the TLM from the RCC's "Mass". By the way, Christ was sacrificed once, He doesn't need to be called down from heaven every Saturday. I've studied both sides and did a 24 page thesis on it, I conclude the protestants, nearly wiped out by the RCC stand in correct doctrine.
I watched the first 5 seconds. The Bible tells us that the so called brothers of Christ was Mary the sister of the mother of Jesus and Clopas. Get better at reading the Bible.
Can you clarify? I didn't understand what you were trying to say. What is your point exactly.
@@michellewilson2995 I would say if they are going to make an anti-Catholic video they should at least say things that are true. I only watched the very beginning, but saw it was the same garbage they always say so. I commented and stop watching.
@@tonyfisher9961 You just watched 5 seconds and drew your conclusions. Maybe you had better watch the whole video, that way you can judge it.
@@thedynamicsolo4232 ok, I will. It might be a day or two though.
Good news, I made it through the long video. Not surprising, after reading some of the Catechism, this guy makes assumption after assumption. He puts Protestant spin on what Catholics say. I was correct in assuming this video was garbage in the first 5 seconds. He did quote a lot of scripture, but I don’t think they can be applied the way he applies it. Let’s go back to the first 5 seconds. If we know that the “brothers of Jesus” were the sons of Mary the wife of Clopas,(as per the Bible), and that the Bible never says that Mary the mother of our Lord had other children, then how can we just say she stopped being a virgin? That in its self is unbiblical. I have to wonder if there is a Christian alive who came up with their own opinions of what the Bible is saying or if it’s because of what someone else told them it’s saying. Lots of differing points of view out there. I like the Catholic Church best. They make more sense to me.
