I was born and raised catholic. Was "influenced" to become protestant at 23. I am 36 now and after spending time studying the scripture, I am now a returning catholic. I was young and relied on emotion but now I truly understand the one true faith. I am back home. Went to church last Sunday and my family was in tears and my priest friend was smiling. I am so happy to be back home. Great channel!
Welcome home!!! God Bless!

But remember we must pray for Pope Francis’s mistakes be repented. The worst mistake was to consider Jesus as a man which his sacrifice in the Cross for our salvation was a failure, according with he said lately.
@@juancarlosdelgadoloyola3494 Please expound on your reply to back up when you think this occurred and why you think it was wrong, instead of just using "lately."
Welcome home brother!
Go straight to d points. Talk talk bored
My youngest daughter attended Girls Brigade and was told by a very Baptist girl that "your bible is wrong". My then 12 year old daughter very calmly answered her "where do you think you bible came from, it was the Catholic Church that put these library of books were put together". I was so proud of her for listening to us and her catholic teachers and priest.
it's sad because that little Baptist girl heard that from her bigoted Baptist parents or pastor. Christ will judge them accordingly.
Good for her! 👏😁
@@filiusvivam4315 unfortunately a lot of protestants don't even realize that they broke off from the Catholic church or how their religion even started. And i someone argue with me that there is no proof Cathlolis are from the first church.
If you don’t like the line of clothes in a store for whatever reasons, don’t shop in that store. But don’t tell the manager to bring in an other line of clothes to suit you. Other people might like the clothes the store sells. Logical, no? Choose your own church, but don’t tell the chur to change.
@@kdz6501 Also, those same protestants can't tell you what happened after the apostles died and before King Henry VIII, King James, and Martin Luther broke away from the Church and decided what they wanted to believe. And, I seriously can't understand how Anglicans can follow the English monarch as the "pope" of their "religion." Who gave the English monarch the authority to be the head of their church? The Catholic Church doesn't claim the pope is the head of the Church. The pope is the visible head of the Church while Jesus Christ is the true head of the Church. And the pope is the Vicar of Christ. Who does the English monarch answer to?
Last week I went to confession after 25 years. I was allowed by the Priest to make a general confession. I was forgiven, welcomed back home and I truly feel like a new person as the Priest said I was. It was wonderful.
what exactly is a general confession?
You name the sins but not the instances. an example is "I have lied, cheated etc. You don't name individual instances. @@strubabe
@daxypoo sorry, is that definitely correct by the priest? Once you're sins are forgiven, they are forgiven. You shouldn't dwell on them.
Congratulations!!
Glory!❤
Born and raised a Catholic. A Marian Catholic. I find life very light in my twilight years (approaching 70)😇🙏❤️😇
I was born catholic, strayed from the faith and looked around at other religions. What brought me home you ask?? The EUCHARIST! It absolutely should be part of the creed, it’s the Eucharist that makes us Catholics God’s children. It is the core of our faith.
IF THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE EUCHARIST IS ON OF THE LUMINOUS MYSTERIES, IT WOULD MAKE (MODERN) SENSE THAT WE EXPRESS IT IN THE CREED.
That’s true. The reason it’s not in the Creed because the creed was written in response to the heresy of the arians, which believes that Jesus was the son of God, but was not divine. The creed does NOT address EVERYTHING that Catholics believe!
Look up Tridentine Creed

I'm a Catholic in a healthcare facility. My roommate is studying to become a Jehovah Witness. I do have my job cut out just hearing the instruction side. Her instructor constantly quotes scripture. I notice the only quote what suits their lesson. Many times I'll asked where does it say that? And when I look it up in my Bible there is a little more to that scripture. It's been very interesting. The best part of this experience is that I am so much stronger in my faith and have been able to complete the second part of the scripture they omitted.
*Have you compared Rome's added tradition that DEATH entered the world by the Woman/Eve (no Biblical verses), VERSUS -- the Apostle teaching in Romans 5:12 that Death entered in the world by ONE MAN/Adam ??* Maybe you are being a little hypocritical by saying JW's are "omitting scripture" when Rome does the same thing. *Like when Rome IGNORES John 19:25 when quoting verses 26-27.... WHY ?? cuz verse 25 proves that Jesus was NOT making Mary the mother of ALL believers since Jesus didn't tell ALL of the believers at the foot of his cross that Mary was THEIR mother.*
@@veritasmuy2407 Your point? If you have an issue with Catholics, move on.
@@cynthiajohnston9065 YOU: Your point?
*ME: Maybe you are being a little hypocritical by saying JW's are "omitting scripture" when Rome does the same thing.* (as shown in my previous comment)
@@veritasmuy2407Paul says in Timothy, I believe, that Eve was the first to fall. Also, it says the same in Genesis.
Do keep in mind that they use an altered version of the Bible translated to make Jesus seem like He's not God (when He absolutely is!)
Im an Italian living in South Africa and I absolutely love this programme
I’m going to send it to as many Catholics as I can in SA
I have subscribed to this channel and I look forward to hearing a lot more from you
Just my thoughts “I really wish that our children were taught more in Catechism” I really hope that it will change ... there is so much for us as adults that we can and SHOULD learn
Thank you so much 🙏🏻✝️
I agree with you totally! It wouldn't hurt to add a bible study to everyone's week. Catechism classes Are structured for sacraments..there is so much more. I was raised in the last 60's-70's and I was never taught about the rosary until I taught myself as an adult. I don't know what I thought the rosary beads were..but I didn't know they were used to pray with! Teaching Catholic's really needs to change!
Fellow South African here. Cape Town. I used to attend St Michael's in Rondebosch, but moved so attending evening Mass at the Parish of the Resurrection. You should visit if you're in the area /city. God bless you, Naomi
Growing up, I received the child's level of the Catechism. And I thought I understood the teachings of the Church. And I abandoned the Church because I really did not understand it. I left the Church for about 20 years. At the age of 40 or 41, I began to study the adult version of the Catechism and began to see so much of what I had missed. It takes a lot of work to learn what the Church really teaches. You just must not be lazy and reach out to study the many sources of the truth. This is such a beautiful religion and we must not be swayed by heresies of protestantism.
@@martinkent333 Such blasphemy!
I am a retired and a South African, where I live there is no Catholic Church and as a result no Mass. I pray that we could have Mass. Thank heavens for the internet and the SSPX.
Can you imagine the back pain those monks suffered for Christ hunched over a table duplicating our books over and over again. True devotion. Pay to them next all saints day.
Being a Christian and being Church member is to become Holy and most profoundly become Saint after this life.... LOVE TO BE A MEMBER OF A HOLY CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH. Never give up. Criticism makes us grow strong every minute and for those who criticise i pray for you to be forgiven.
think of their eye sight too. No electricity and those monasteries did not have big window!
That's a good illustration. May I use it?

I’m so sick of hearing people say we worship statues.
statues and stained glass for me bring me back to the worship...my brain sometimes wanders!
Exactly like it's so annoying
im catholic and it’s because catholic culture is so ridiculously obsessed with material objects, its almost - anti what christ actually said
Survey Survey it’s not “anti what Christ said” or “anti christ” . Other people are just too quick to judge when it comes to the Catholic Church. So many people say we are idol worshippers and because they trust these ppl they think they can’t be wrong so they consume everything they say as the “truth” without hearing what we have to say. It’s just being gullible tbh
Survey Survey....I did some research and found out that Pope Francis was given a Harley for free...He signed it and it was auctioned off for over 300,000. Money for the poor. Perhaps this may help
It absolutely blows my mind how people who are NOT Catholic tell us Catholics what we believe 🤷♀️🤦♀️.
Some Non-Catholics WERE RCs.
When I tell people Im catholic, im sick of the reactions of people saying, "Oh yikes, pedos" and "Oh, so you must hate gays". People in the world are so hurt, they dont even wanna have a real conversation about the truth anymore. Just slap on a label, then move on with their lives of deceit..
@Iolshere, I know. It breaks my heart.
Amen.
kitnapper kat hurt or use these labels as convenient way to dismiss?
i know, i have heard them, also, unfortunately.
@@lindahandley5267 The public loves demons and the Mafia takeover of the Vatican Bank. Makes us proud to know such slime is possible. That' why there's two popes, Powderpuff.
I am a Filipino Catholic and although it is true that we are quite expressive in our devotion, it's not because we worship statues. It's a means for us to show reverence and affection for what they commemorate. It's similar to looking gleefully at photos of your parents, family members, and friends who have past. It helps focus your reflection and gives a visual queue as you try to be in their presence. Thanks for another enlightening episode.
I am 81 years old, came back to the church after 30 yrs. Really enjoy your show. I love the youthful exuberance.
Mabuhay ka kapatid😊
That's a great analogy. I like it a lot, but unfortunately, there will always be people who don't know and don't want to know the truth. They'd rather just be stupid and mean, attacking our religion. I love the Catholic faith with all of its traditions. It's not like some churches I've been in where it's more like a social event, with people talking and seeing who can out fashion the other one. Plus, where there is no quiet showing quite reverence to our Father. It is a time for people to pray There is no altar with a crucifix to remind us that the Eucharist is the actual body of Christ.
Oh yes. This aspect of Filipino Catholicism is not explained properly, hence many people being led away from the Church simply because they take what Protestants say at face value.
Well said! I’m publishing a weekly RUclips video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you.
As a Catholic growing up in the Philippines, it was never easy. I have met other kids from a different religion say what they think Catholics are, exactly what you discussed. And I thank you guys because it made me realize that I am blessed because I am a Catholic and that there are a lot of things that I didn't know about my faith, in which now I am enlightened. I just subscribed by the way and I came across this channel through one of my brother's posts. He wanted to be a priest and he also have a knack for photography. Anyway, I thank you and I hope every one who comes across your channel will be blessed every single time. God bless us all. 😊
But Victoria, i thought the phillipines is a staunchly catholic country
Let's fuck, kill and eat a choirboy!!!!!!
@@MsErikdeking it's about 70%
They are a large number of evangelical, home grown protestantism and even eastern Orthodox churches in the Philippines also.
In the south, Mindanao island, there's a large amount of Muslims.
Many Catholics are lapsed and some protestant sects are very aggressive in attacking the Catholic faith.
@@Kitiwake ah, that's bad!
Absolutely
I’m glad I found this! When I was a child, my neighbor friends down the street (Lutherans) stopped talking to me for a whole year because they said I prayed to sinners (saints) and worshipped Mary. I didn’t have the language then to explain their errors in judgment. You have done a great job explaining it. I am ready to watch more.
Wow. Ppl need to humble themselves. Everybody is wrong. No one has it right. Only deluded ppl think they have God figured out
Hello Gentlemen. My first visit to your channel. I’ve been a Catholic for all of my 73 years of life. I fell over many years ago and drifted away but I came back. In fact my beliefs never changed. Today I am what is termed as a Special Minister in which I have the Priviledge of administration of the Communion Hosts & or Wine to Parishoners at Mass in order to assist the Priesr. I’m very Proud of my being accepted. The Consececration to me is THE MOST important part of the Mass. I kept my Faith strongly whist serving in Vietnam. I’m very sure that I was being watched over and I was protected during some very bad times. My attitude today is that God was looking after me. Thank you. Neville J. Australia.
May God Bless you all your life, sir, i m, also, a helper at my Church.
Praise God. Your sharing was wonderful
To Gentleman , In a Catholic Church, once the bread is consecrated it is now The Body if Christ and the wine consecrated is the Blood of Jesus! What a Gift we have in our RC Faith! To receive The Real Presence of Jesus, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity!!! wow 🎉We are truly blessed. May others come to experience the Gift of Faith to believe we are Receiving Jesus!!!🎉Rosemarie:)
Yes, I agree that the Eucharist should be in out Creed..the Real Presence of Jesus after Consecration at Msss🎉 Yeah God!!✨💕🔥🔥
Mr. Jones, Thank you for going to Vietnam. I could never imagine war. The Father kept you here for a reason.
We have a radio station in southeast Michigan. They explained the Catholicism was the first Christian denomination and all other Christian denominations are rooted through Catholicism. It meant so much to hear that.
It’s history…I learned that in the 6th grade and was fortunate to have a teacher who was a gifted storyteller.she made everything more memorable.
I was Confirmed into Catholicism in June of 2020 and my mother and RCIA teacher said I converted waaay before that when I went to Chimayo as a child but to be honest what really brought out my bull headed will to convert were all the hateful things I heard about the Catholic Church from my grandparents, I was a Southern girl who grew up in the local Baptist Church in South Carolina so I heard all types of bigoted anti Catholic lies and I thank the Lord I was stubborn enough to push through it and convert
I had a girl friend who converted to the cath church it was very hard for her. She is more Catholic than I am who was born into it thank God. Good for you!
YOU: what really brought out my bull headed will to convert were all the hateful things I heard about the Catholic Church from my grandparents
*ME: It must be nice to be part of Christianity that invites demonic pagan religions to set up their demonic female idol on Roman church property, and to allow that demonic pagan religion to perform actual demonic religious rituals on Roman church property, and had their own "Roman christian ministers" participate in the demonic religious rituals -- Amazonian Synod.* Wonder what Jesu would think about the Roman church disrespecting the property of GOD -- see John 2:14-16. Yeah, your Roman Church is the "true church of holy GOD".......
I think Eucharist should be added to the creed. It's an important belief that is the centre of apostolic christian life.
Stephen Anna Marydas Yeah. Adding to the creed really worked the first time ;)
Yes it should, but imagine the backlash we'll get, the filioque itself caused war. Not saying I'm against it, im saying if we want to do it, we must do it in a proper channel
As Jesus said “Not only who said “My Lord, My Lord” will be saved, but those who accomplish the wiill of his father, who is in Heaven, will deserve to enter his kingdom in heaven.
The creed is jesus' life story; the eucharist is the celebration of jesus' life and death which is why we recite the creed before communion.
The creed was formulated to refute the errors extant at a particular time. For a more thorough creed, find The Credo of the People of God, by Pope Paul VI.
I'm tired of hearing we worship mary when we don't. We ask her to pray for us. I found this channel a few days ago. I love you guys! Love your sense of humor too!

You know the story in the bible where the brothers were being forced to bow to a Statue of nebbakanezer? If the three brothers bowed before the statue and just called it veneration would it be fine with you?
I go to mass every week but i know if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck its probably a duck. I go to the Catholic Church but i only pray to Jesus and God and never ever bow to a statue .
You have to remember the main reason the Creed was developed. It was put together to refute doctrines that were being disputed. There was no dispute against the Eucharist, so there was no need to put it into the Creed.
I think it would be a good addition knowing that 70% of Catholics don’t believe in true presence. I’m not sure how licit the addition would be or the administrative process of doing it, but in the event that it is added, I would be glad. It would remind every single Catholic about the True Presence every time they recite it.
@@sillybearss and where may i ask, did you get that information from? It's a load on nonsense. Oh don't bother answering as I have worked out the answer - you are a TLM Only believer.

I'm sorry to inform you that I've never been to any latin mass. I doubt it's even available in my home country as well as my current country of residence.
Excellent loint James. Let's fix that.
Point, not loint. The mispelling took the boom out of my clever reply. Nonetheless, our doctrine and liturgical prayers are not static.
I was brought up Catholic. Recieved all the sacraments then left the church at 20yo to play in rock bands, get drunk & do drugs & loose women. Gave up the band scene at 38yo, moved away from Sydney to regional Australia and married a non Catholic. Come 2020, I saw where the world was going, didn't like it and went back to my faith. Never felt better than coming back home to God and reality. Best change ever

The same came back just recently
I understand, I was the prodigal daughter
Is your spouse still non-Catholic. Do they go ti Mass with you?
Great discussion. I've had many of these same conversations with friends who are not Catholic and didn't quite have the words to combat their false claims. This discussion has given me the words I need to speak knowledgeably and confidently about Catholicism. It also served to further cement my faith in God and that I am on the right path. Thank you very much gentlemen.
I just joined the Church this year at age 68 and will be learning for the rest of my life. Found you all this week and find myself listening every day. Love the discussion.
I agree.. the belief of the true presence in the Eucharist should be confessed, TOTALLY AGREE!!
The next time a Protestant accuses you of being a Mary worshipper or a statue worshipper, retort by stating that they are book worshippers because of sola scriptura.
That is a lie from the snake pit. Sorry, but no true Christian worships the Bible. We are worshipping the one the Bible proclaims as our LORD. It would really help if you Catholics would stop claiming "sola Scriptura" when we show through the Scriptures that your doctrines are in error. That is one of the top 10 my list of 10 Things Christians are tired of hearing! Because we know the Scriptures are there for doctrine, reproof, correction........IT STATES AS MUCH. And if Catholics would take the time to actually read it and not have it filtered through the papacy, they might know this truth........When we see many Catholics who take a knee before statues of Mary and claim they pray to her, this is exactly why you are all accused of worship of her! Don't you get that? PRAYER is one of the HIGHEST forms of WORSHIP that there is! Not once in all the gospels (teachings of Jesus or the apostles) is anybody told to pray to Mary! NEVER! Yet, Catholics do this consistently. I am not trying to be mean. I am pointing out some FACTS that you do not seem to address!
The problem is that most protestants read the bible through their own filters as well. We point to scripture to support our beliefs and get told "no, that's not what that means!". Says who? Who's authority do you interpret scripture with? " the holy spirit ". Well everyone claims that and you get different interpretations so clearly you need some form of authority to declare what is the correct interpretation. As far as kneeling goes, if you kneel by your bed at night to say your prayers are you worshiping your bed? No. Kneeling is a physical way to lower ourselves as we enter into prayer before our Lord. Just because we kneel in front of a statue does not mean we worship it. Yes, prayer is a form of worship, but not all prayer is worship. If I pray to ask for something, that is petition, not worship. And that is all we ever do when we pray to Mary or the saints. We ask them to pray to God on our behalf. Just as I would ask you to pray for me. We do not expect Mary or the saints to provide what we ask as they can not, but they can go to God for us, and they are there with Him in heaven!
Also Noahs Arc had two figures on the Arc, two Charibs and Arons staff had a Snake, are those not simbles to.
@@gracielong3566 catholic church wrote the Bible with the help of the Holy Spirit just so u know
USA#1 !! Yup, the two biggest mistakes Protestants make are Sola Scriptura and the practice of private judgment. They claim they reject all man-made traditions while they are hypocrites and follow those above named man made traditions started by Luther.
The priest is awesome, I really like him. You guys should get Fr.Ripperger on.
@@gamers7800 Exactly what I was thinking even before I read your response. Ripperger is much deeper. These guys are good for the somewhat unknowledgeable Catholic and more entertaining, which younger folks look for.
@@jillbert40 There's a podcast of Fr. Ripperger, I'm not sure if it's a official but it has some of his sermons and talks recorded, plus I find him on RUclips. I believe he's a fine priest and terrific teacher of Catholic thought, we need more priest like him. I hope our three host would agree.👍
yeah, sensus fidelium has helped me a lot!
Have you guys heard yourselves
@@jillbert40 how condescending!
The Eucharist should be added to the Apostles Creed. Good one by Ryan. Eucharist is where we witness miracles taking place and I've personally experienced physical healing.
A must watch talk show for the protestants and Catholics as well.
YOU: Eucharist is where we witness miracles taking place and I've personally experienced physical healing.
*ME: You contradict the Apostles/Canon. Physical healing comes from the stripes of Jesus on the cross -- 1Peter **2:24** (Isaiah 53:4-5) -- combined with our FAITH (Matthew 9:21-22,29) -- not from physically eating the leavened bread/wine.* Miracles take place because of the power of the Holy Spirit that indwells each true Christian -- John 14:10,12,16-17.
Jesus made it clear that whatever you physically consume, just becomes physical shite in the toilet -- Matthew 15:17 -- if what you physically consume can not make you defiled/impure, then what you physically consume can't make you pure/connected to Jesus -- *true Believers are ONE with Jesus because we are INDWELLED by Jesus -- John 14:23, John 17:21,23 -- not because we consume the physical leavened bread and wine.*
I love your talks! Thank you! Keep going! God bless you all!!!
Lol! As a young girl, I would see my mom say the rosary in front of the Holy Family statues that she brought back from the Philippines. I never knew other people saw them as graven images till I moved to the south. In fact, I never knew Protestants believed in everything that you’re discussing right now. Sad. We just have to pray for them. (Btw, just discovered your show and everyone’s great!) God bless!
I'm assuming "south" means southern United States, I know too well of what you speak.
Gia C so are they graven images that your mother is saying the rosary in front of on her knees ?where is the rosary in the Bible? I’m talking about the original text ,the king James ,not the Catholic Bible ,that has not only been translated but has been re-interpreted .there are many translations of the king James for example from Hebrew to English ,from Hebrew to Italian ,from Hebrew to Portuguese, from Hebrew to Japanese, that’s a translation. It is the interpretation from the king James that is incorrect. Where in the Bible do we pray to Mary? Where do we pray to any of the saints? Mary is without sin? Then why did she call Jesus her Savior? Where does saying repetitious prayer over and over forgive sin? When the pope says it is a dangerous thing to have a relationship with Jesus Christ, is this true? How many Catholic doctrines are there? why isn’t everybody in the catholic church of same mind like the Bible says we are to be? I have 1 million questions. God is not interested in the name of a people, because if you make it into hell the name will burn off ,if you make it into heaven it will drop off, the name Catholic means nothing ,just like the name Penecostal ,just like the name Baptist ,it simply states a belief ,and if it doesn’t line up with the word of God it is false. You cannot have 99% truth and 1% false .A Christian is Christ like when he has the Spirit of God in him Born again ,and he is keeping in step with the Holy Ghost, we are saved by grace through faith alone, we do good works because we are saved ,and we are called to do them, and it is the Lord himself who has created these works for us to do before the foundation of the world. A Confirmation, A retreat, cresia , saying a Vow, does not make you Christian and it does not secure your place in heaven. Why do you crucify Jesus over and over thinking that he comes down into a wafer of bread every time you have mass ,show me where that is in the word of God, that is not the Lords supper ,and many who do this unworthily because of their sinful lifestyle, die, and plunge straight to hell. The Lord does not except your incense he does not except your rituals he does not except your prayers to mary and to the Saints ,he does not except your graven images in these churches and on your front lawn, you do these things because you worship the unknown God as Paul described, meaning you do not know him ,you think that you’re doing all these things to please him and you cannot please him with any of your good works.
james wells I wish to impart things with you of things you might not have even heard of. You have a lot of questions, but first, I beg you to first let go of your prejudices against the Church. If you are truly seeking for the Truth, you should hear both sides of the story (fairly). It looks like most of your questions are recycled protestant misconceptions. It’s hard to answer every single one of your questions here. But, why don’t you start with a clean plate?
Suppose, you’re searching for the One True Church of Jesus Christ today? He only wanted One Church, not many churches with opposing interpretations. Let’s get that one thing straight. Now, it only make sense to go back into history, correct? Ask things like, what was the early christianity like? What did the Apostles, disciples, early church fathers believe? Were they Catholic or protestant? Did the Apostles really have traditions? If so, what traditions did they spoke of? It only make sense to go back and learn what the Apostles, disciples, church fathers believe because they are the ones who lived closely with Our Lord. A former Anglican who became a cardinal named John Henry Newman said, “to be deep in history is to cease to be a protestant.”
The Catholic Church is the only church who can trace their successors to the Apostles. The first pope of the Church is St. Peter.
But did you know that the 2nd and 4th pope of the Church, Pope Linus and Pope Clement, are mentioned in the bible? 2 Timothy 4:21 and Phil. 4:2-3, respectively.
Also take a look at what the early Church Fathers think of the Church.
St. Ignatius of Antioch, Letter to the Smyrneans 8:2, 107 AD
“Let no one do anything of concern to the Church without the bishop. Let that be considered a valid Eucharist, which is celebrated by the bishop or by one whom he ordains [i.e., a presbyter]. Wherever the bishop appears, let the people be there, just as wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church.”
Then, St. Cyprian of Carthage, Letter of Cyprian to All His People 43 (40), 5, 251 AD
“They who have not peace themselves now offer peace to others. They who have withdrawn from the Church promise to lead back and to recall the lapsed to the Church. There is one God and one Christ, and one Church, and one Chair founded on Peter by the word of the Lord. It is not possible to set up another altar or for there to be another priesthood besides that one altar and that one priesthood. Whoever has gathered elsewhere is scattering.”
Another thing, the Bible didn’t just miraculously appear out of nowhere and Jesus didn’t tell His Apostles, “and by the way, this is a Bible, read it and share it to the world.” The Apostles didn’t even know what a “Bible” is at that time. They didn’t gather together and say, “okay let’s go out and make a bible.”
Warm Mocha I have a daughter and two grandchildren being baptized in the Catholic Church this evening at 8 o’clock. I know the complete history though I have not been in the Catholic Church since I was a teenager, very little has changed ,and I know the history of Catholicism and where it began ,and it certainly did not begin with Peter. Hundreds of thousands of people lost their lives when anyone preached against the Catholic theology, that is not the church of Jesus Christ, because the true church would never ever do that , not even to Muslims much less anyone else. Now either they are listening to the pope as if he was a person to go through as if God spoke to the pope only ,of the which there’s no truth in that ,but we have to go by what the pope is saying ,and what the pope is doing that is against the word of God it’s self .I do not hate these people ,as I do not hate anyone ,I simply know the deception. that is there today .will there be people in heaven from the Catholic Church? yes. Thank you for your comment. But these guys think I’m a devil, but one day they will remember me and the things that I said , that if they don’t come through Jesus alone for their salvation, they will not enter in , you can’t even pray one prayer to Mary or any of the Saints , it’s enough for rejection in the eyes of the Lord .for it is by grace through faith alone. We’re not to live like the devil of course but it is still by the finished work of the cross ,by the blood of Jesus only ,not anything we can do to get us into heaven, it’s what we receive, and that is forgiveness for our sins, no man on the earth can forgive sins, there’s no purgatory. Our decision is final here ,we either receive Jesus or we reject him , we can’t add things to the work on the cross ,and if we do that ?if anyone does that ?they will not enter into God‘s kingdom. What’s with the little statues on their desk ?the little figurines that God hates supremely ?that is against the word of God in itself ,and it’s open for anyone to see that knows what the word of God says. Confession, communion ,confirmation ,these are all ceremonies that God is displeased with. Even Catholics that I talk to are against these things. The word of God says we are to be of one mind and one accord, The Catholic Church has hundreds of different bodies in it ,some agreeing ,some disagreeing ,nobody’s on the same page ,some people know the pope is just a man ,some people believe he is actually ago between God and man ,and he is not, there is only one mediator between God and man, and that is Jesus Christ ,that is what the Bible says. Why is the Catholic Church constantly changing and reforming? Even the true church right now is in trouble. But God is going to shake the earth is shaking is coming from him and only the true believers will be standing when it’s over. That means only those who have an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ are going to stand, those who have religion ,legalism ,and ceremonies, and working for their salvation ,working for their entrance into heaven, Will fall at once ,and fear will grip them, you don’t have to take my word for it ,you will witness it ,just hang on ,because it’s coming. I’m pretty sure you have felt for a long time ,something terrible is about to hit the earth. God loves the Catholic people so much ,he does not love the true church any more or any less then them, he wants everyone to come to him in repentance. In so much that when the church is rapture out ?God is still going to give people opportunity to come to him in repentance. All the way up to the end.
james wells I don’t think you see the full story, I’ve seen these same claims all over, mostly from Anti-Catholic websites, youtube videos, etc. Everyone wants a personal Jesus, they don’t want to hear about the biblical Jesus. Jesus set One Church and there are traditions. Traditions the Apostles passed along to the next successor. I thought you were honestly seeking for the Truth, but it’s obvious your mind was already set even before asking those questions.
Btw, there is a difference between venerating, honoring, and loving the Blessed Virgin Mary, to “worshipping.” Worship is only designated to God alone.
Former Pentecostal Pastor here. Going through RCIA this Fall. Add the Eucharist to the Creed. It will force protestants to look into it. I had no idea about it until just recently.
When I converted, I had to recite the Tridentine Creed. It was created at the Council of Trent as a test to determine if someone was a Protestant. It probably isn't used much anymore, but I converted into a traditional parish. I hope that your RCIA went well Brother.
@@Eye_of_a_Texan I will look that up, thank you. RCIA is going well, in the middle of it now.
Welcoms home!!!!
@@theunlikelycatholic6930 I'm a convert as well but I'm from a Moody Bible Church. Welcome home brother and may our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ continue to bless you on your walk.
@@meldoesnails7682 thank you! And you as well.
This makes me happy. I feel armed with knowledge and the Holy Spirit and the beautiful words that go "sick of hearing it, it's stupid, stop saying it."
Mass rapes of Roman Catholic children by Roman Catholic priests. made Jesus proud! So did the coverup! So did the Vatican Bank's washing Mafia money! If Jesus gets any more excited, we're in big trouble dude!
@@martinkent333, sir, you seem to be going along with the papers, not God's Will, while SOME priests do use their "power" to abuse other people, you are using this comment to imply that ALL of them use it for the same purpose. i m praying for your Soul and for all of our Souls.
I am a catholic from the Philippines. I am happy listening to your program because I learned many things about my catholic faith.
Ryan Scheel is me as a Catholic when dealing with non-Catholics.
Me too!!!
Me too.
I'm addicted to this show. I can't get enough of these guys! God bless them!!
Roman Catholic priests are experts in child rape and coverups. Jesus is so proud to oversee such holiness. How do you sleep at night dude? Ever met a victim?
I have so many Catholic friends. It’s good for you to publicly explore these topics.
I have a friend who said to me, why don't you come to my church because Catholics are not Bible based. I said tomorrow I will bring you something to prove you wrong. So I brought him misslette and said open it anywhere. He did and started to read it. He looked so stunned, and said this is right from the Bible. I smiled and said guess who made the Bible.
I am reading "A Biblical Walk Through the Mass" by Edward Sri. For me it has added a depth and appreciation for the mass.
Obviously they have never stepped foot in a Catholic Church. Every thing said during the mass is in the Bible except the homily . They have the verses marked too
@@lois2997 I have, Many times, too many actually over 18 years. I found it to be lifeless where people could not wait to leave and go down to the Bars. Repeating verses in the Bible is completely useless. Understanding what those verses say isn't.
So proud of being Catholic 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Pride is the queen of all sins. Instead, be grateful for being a Catholic.
Although it's sometimes hard to keep on the straight and narrow
We are allowed to be proud of our faith. I am proud I came back home to the one true church of God and I love our mother Mary.
@@lois2997 Well said Lois 👏😊🏴
Dudes! And Father ... You guys rock! It is so cool to sit back and be real about God.
I am 75 years old…a “cradle” Catholic. I attended Catholic school from 3rd through 8th grade. Yes, Catholics are the first Christians. I grew up in St. Luke’s Parish in Irving, Texas where there are a lot of Catholics but have lived in east Texas since 1979. It was a shock because where I moved to in 1979 that there were so many fewer Catholics AND it is considered to be the “east Texas Bible Belt” where there are so many more Protestants then there are any other religions. In fact, I don’t think I have met any Jewish people since I moved to east Texas in 1979. My OB/GYN for over 32 years was in Dallas and was Jewish…bless his heart…he died in 1999 from colon cancer and he delivered 6 of my 7 children at St. Paul Hospital, the Catholic hospital, in Dallas even though I lived in east Texas. East Texas used to be part of the Dallas Diocese but has been it’s own dioceses for probably 20 years now. I am not a fan of change and, if it were left up to me would go back to the old Latin mass that I grew up with….so, I am perfectly happy with the Apostles’ Creed staying just like it is. I have heard that old thing about Catholics worshipping statues…..so stupid. How many times I have tried to explain why we might have pictures or statues that we “think” about as we pray. What is wrong with that? Protestants need to realize that, especially in England, Henry the VIII changed the Bible to suit himself. Very interesting panel, guys….and Father.
Filipino Culture reflect their devotion, expressive .
Yes We are. If God vive you time to have a mass here in our country yiu woukd surely find so devouted Filipino Catholic. That is how devouted We are. We can be all.
@@nelsonvallarta9611 Indeed, we're so devout that the churches become overfilled and mass is broadcast outside and on large TVs so that everyone can hear
@Judgy Judgerton Ugh, there were even good Catholics who believed in that murderous and crazed blasphemer. He cursed God on public television so I have no idea why people still defend him and yet worship God. Support for him is a political cult.
So true. We believe in the power of faith and we are very tactile in it.
Right on guys, God Bless!
Wolves don't lose sleep over the opinions of the sheep.
Thank you for sharing the beautiful quote from Saint JP II. It is so appropriate in this era to know the true intetrelationship between science and faith. We can meditate on the depths of wisdom in that statement.
I believe that this is the greatest challenge of the current generation. So many people consider themselves atheists or agnostics because they don't realize that the physical truths of science , are actually a reflection of God's world, and in no way incompatible with faith. We need to witness this message of Saint JP2 to the world. Mankind is on the verge of so much new technology, especially concerning bioethics. It is imperative that mankind understands JP2's messages on the inherent dignity of each person...and how these inspired insights are not opposed to scientific truths. knowledge, nor continued research and understanding of the natural world .
Also thank you Ryan S. for pointing out this should be/is a shared point of reason between the monotheistic religions: Jewish. Islam, Christian. Mankind will need the shared voices of all those on earth who acknowledge God the father in order to the face many challenges that will face us in the near future.
I love this podcast ☺️
Listening from the Philippines! 🙂
I wonder if the reason the Protestants think we worship Mary has its root in how we define worship? A Protestant service of praise and worship is very different from the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. perhaps if the were to understand the Mass they would see the demarcation between veneration and worship?
Cathleen Beltz exactly 👏🏽👏🏽
Some would still have hardened hearts and still believe its idol worship solely because Catholics do it.
Does the Bible explain why Protestants are so blinkered?
Protestants are taught we worship Mary and most never investigate the matter for themselves.
World best religion is Roman Catholic,
This Roman Catholic religion roots are so strong that no one can uproot it, this Roman Catholic religion is a everlasting religion,
101% True,
Raja Sharma Watch out, Eastern Orthodoxy is finally spreading roots beyond the East and it is better.
Yes absolutely TRUE
Y E S! Absolutely TRUE no doubt in this
Y E S! Absolutely TRUE No Doubt
What the f*** I'm a Jewish
Three man on friendly discussion about faith in a practical way. Great.
Thank you guys for all you do
Great job ... keep it up... !!!
Just to mention a few,
We are sick of hearing Francis tell us that all religions and cults will lead us to God, and heaven,
we're sick of hearing Francis say it's OK to be gay, when God has proven the opposite when he destroyed them all in Sodom and Gomorrah.
Wow, I am growing a love and respect for this show.. I would love to send this video to many protestants who have said these very things to me. My take on it is, I'm not sick of hearing it, I use it to engage and educate them. Keep up the good work. You guys are awesome.
Kissing or touching statues to receive special blessings transmitted through the statues, kneeling or bowing to statues to demonstrate respect/reverence for them is not idolatry?
Hi Cliff, you might find it helpful to ask about the perception you have on the role of statues in Catholic life on either / both of the following live call-in shows. They are very knowledgeable and hold to the orthodoxy of the Catholic faith.
Catholic Answers Live: Weekdays, 6-8 pm Eastern (3-4 PM Pacific) "on over 360 AM and FM stations in the United States, Sirius Satellite Radio channel 130, and through the Internet at catholic.com, RUclips, Facebook, and Periscope." The link to their topic schedule: www.catholic.com/audio/cal .
Called To Communion: The host, Dr. David Anders, has a PhD in Reformation Theology. He's a convert to Catholicism. Show times: weekdays, 2 pm Eastern (North America) on the EWTN YT channel; or listen on the EWTN app for Android or Apple.
Catholic beliefs and practices don't go against Scripture, but they often go against the misperceptions many people have.
You don't get a special blessing from touching a statue. Any respect you show is for the person represented by the statue. Jesus became incarnate out of respect for our physical nature. Statues also respect that and enable us to come closer to the spiritual God through our bodies.
Nope
Would you not show respect for relatives ? All the statues are a depiction of our huge Christian family . They were on earth at one time just as I am now. They struggled just as I do. They all served our Lord Jesus Christ. We are all at the foot of the cross , grateful that Jesus suffered a horrid
Physical death on the cross so we would know eternal salvation. The word idolatry is tossed around and Satan uses that word to accuse Catholics. Satan despises God's family and the miracle of the Eucharist . We have been under attack for more than 2,000 years.
But we prevail. Satan hates that very much . When people tell me I am not Christian , because I am Catholic I used to use apologetics to educate them . I am 75 now . I no longer
Expend energy apologizing to those who attack me. I pray for them. To those who tell me I am not saved because I am Catholic , I know this.
They , nor anyone I know on earth , is going to sacrifice themselves on the cross for me . They are not God , and do not hold the final disposition of my soul in their hands . They are not my judge ! The greatest Paraclete
Is my savior ! I am marked for salvation and Jesus defends me against Satan the prosecutor .
Love the straight forward talk we need more of it
Jesus loved the Roman Catholic Church's rape of 200, 000 catholic children and coverup. He also loved the Vatican Bank's washing of Mafia blood money, dude! Jesus is excited!
@@martinkent333 i understand you’re being sarcastic but truly- what is your point? tragedies happen, unfortunately some of these tragedies occurred in his church. what’s your point?
I think it’s a very deep & important Thing to suggest; Jesus is truly present in The Holy Eucharist. So many Catholics are not aware of this. We also need to Say the Nicene Creed on Sundays. It’s my understanding that this is a requirement that we recite this on Sundays. I only wish that we would say this Credo reverently, bowing at the appropriate moments. God bless and guide you all. I pray that The Holy Spirit guides you in all you say on your program.
As a practicing Catholic I'm still learning when I came back to the church I took the classes over again so I would understand. I'm only been back 17 months now. I am in the state of grace I go to confession once a month I guard against mortal sins. The only sins I do nowadays venial sins.
We love you all. Greetings from México. Viva Cristo Rey y la Virgen María de Guadalupe!!!!!!!!!
Yes! Add to the creed, the true presence of our Lord in the holy Eucharist!
My great grandma is baptist, my dad converted to Catholicism upon meeting my mother, for the longest time she believed Catholics were a cult and me and my dad had to explain to her the meaning of the papacy and the whole tradition back to Christ.
GREAT SHOW!!!! Gosh i agree with everything! Thank you so much for taking the time to come up with this topic. I learn so much! Thanks guys! Thank you Father!
Listening from Montreal, Canada. Amazing job!
Love the Vatican Bank's washing of Mafia money and the mass child rapes of Roman Catholic children by Roman Catholic priests! Jesus is SO PROUD!!!!!! Love the coverup, too!
Adding to the creed is an interesting thought. If the filioque can be inserted as a qualification, maybe it could be added in a similar way:
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father, wholely substantial within the Eucharist;
What scripture is the creed or is it a church doctrine based upon man made ideas?
@@Supablonde1 www.prayerfoundation.org/nicene_creed_scripture_basis.htm
CandaceWhite
A Google search can easily provide bible references for every ward and frase in
the Creed.
Around the 32 minute mark you are discussing how the commandments are organized. When I was an atheist one of the many objections to religion was the fact that a man's wife and his donkey were put in the same commandment in Protestantism. I was so happy to see that the Catholic Catechism separated the two into separate commandments. God bless and thank you for your content.
Watching this 2 years late but as far as adding the Eucurist to the Creed I agree.
I am proud to be Catholic! I cannot imagine myself or my family to be otherwise. I come from the Philippines and our country is the only Catholic country this side of the world. Pls pray for us as there is talk that some legislators would like to pass a divorce bill. Its only our country and the Vatican where divorce is not allowed.
Yes, I believe the "true presence" should be part of the creed.
I surprisingly agree, I’m usually one for keeping things the way they are but the Eucharist is what really distinguishes us from any other religion.
I am an Orthodox but when I ask my protestants friends in what they believe their answer is always in the Bible and my answer is always we believe in Jesus Christ and trinity and thanks them for worshipping the book that we wrote for them
Excellent podcast.
Thanks guys. Now I can answer some of the questions our brother Protestants ask or accuse us about. God bless. ❤
There's also a book that helped me called, " The Biblical Basis for the Catholic Faith "
"PROTESTANTS" believe on the same Christ that Catholics do.
The Hail Mary is us asking the mother of God to pray for us 🙏
I don't even engage with "protestants' anymore. I was raised in a protestant sect. Even as a child, I thought these people were whack. As a teenager I started to do research on the history of Christianity. The SECULAR version of Christian history. What I concluded was that the Roman Catholic Church was indeed the church that was founded at the direction of our Lord Jesus Christ. Then I started to study Catholicism, and what I discovered was a beautiful and emotionally satisfying religion with a rich history and culture of it's own. I converted when I turned 18. My family never got over it. That isn't my problem.
I totally love the idea of the Creed being updated to include the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. I would love to see a council document to that extent.
I think it should be updated as well. The RCC has changed so much from the beginning why stop now? Did not Jesus say he was the same yesterday, today and tomorrow? Obviously, the RCC doesn't believe that.
I’m converting to Catholicism and other denominations misrepresent the Catholic Church
You are right Lisa.
Welcome Home. We have 11 converting in my parish this Easter. (2022) Scotland, UK 🏴
Welcome home!!!
What I hate is people telling me what an evil Catholic Christian or Christians in general did to their mother, family, father, friend. Or what hypocrites Christians are. I always tell them “Its a good thing I worship Jesus and not people. Because people are sinners.”
Love your channel! Thank you . I have always been Catholic. I have learned so much.
Really good episode gentlemen!
Thank you! It is great to now have added knowledge with which to respond to these ten ridiculous comments. Father, your comments on the beauty of the sacrament of reconciliation actually brought tears to my eyes. I need to get my butt to confession!
As a chemistry graduate student at Notre Dame, I can confirm Catholics believe in science
Thank you for another extremely interesting and most needed topic of conversation on today's show. It was quite indulging, :-) and I'm adding my viewing to my list of indulgences, and hoping it is credited on my ledger of venial debts. :-)
May God protect your children from horny Roman Catholic priests, dude.
Nice show. I’m converting to orthodoxy but my cousins are RC and it gets old hearing these things repeated over and over again.
Good job 👍🏼 guys.🙏🏻👌🏻👍🏼
We must speak the truth in the love of Jesus Christ.
Honestly, I agree that the Eucharist should be part of the Creed. That's just my first take without deeper deliberation, but I think that makes a lot of sense.
56:58 Jesus seems to agree with Ryan :) Thanks. I love your show.
I think we should add the Eucharist to the creed! I love that idea
Yes!! The Eucharist should be part of the Creed. It is fundamental to our Catholic Church.
The word Catholic also was used to help distinguish the Church from Protestants. The Catholic Church being universal I. E. everywhere as most of the Protestant churches were regional at the time. I-think we should use the term Catholic Christian to help fight the falsely that we are not Christian’s. P. S. I totally agree with the belief in the Eucharist being added to The Apostles Creed.
Instead of changing the Our Father, let’s discuss adding the true presence to the Creed.
Happy belated St Patrick's Day! Great work brothers. You guys give me hope actually.
Love your mass child rapes by Roman Catholic priests. Jesus is proud of you too. Love the Vatican Bank's washing of Mafia money! Love the coverup of the child rapes. We sleep well at night, knowing God approves of the priests raping and the Mafia connection.
As someone who went from Evangelicalism to Orthodoxy I just wanna say it blows my mind I used to believe/say some of these crazy things. Now I think we need to extend a hand to our evangelical brothers and sisters and educate them on church history. Once I learned history it all went down from there and I had no choice but leave my birth sect (Pentalcostalism).
The difference is, you were willing to study and learn church history. Everyone is not willing to do so and have been brainwashed into believing untruths and have no desire whatsoever to do any real research of their own. Congratulations and welcome.
I'm American I live in Northern California. I'm married to a Filipino she told me when I married her in the Philippines 80% are Catholic. We got married in the Catholic Church. I was gone from the Catholic Church approximately 40 years. Then I left again going to other churches that was a big mistake me and my wife are still together we are still living together I go to Mass I go every Sunday I take the Eucharist I've been back to the church 17 months now. My wife sees me getting up I'm going to mass
No to changing the creed, and the Our Father as well. Only will cause confusion and disunity and set bad precedents.
Should the Apostles Creed be updated? I'll have to give this more thought but I'm going to go with No on this "hot take" for now simply for that it is a part of The Holy Rosary. I don't know what Ryan means by updating essentially, but my gut feeling is No, it should not be updated because it's more than tradition at this point but it's an interesting question.
What scripture in the bible does it sate the creed?
@@Supablonde1 www.prayerfoundation.org/nicene_creed_scripture_basis.htm
I like the Apostles Creed more it contain the 12 main beliefs of all Catholics. 1. I believe in God the Father Almighty Creator of heaven and earth 2. in Jesus Christ his only son our Lord. 3. Was concieved by the Holy Spirit born of the Virgin Mary. 4. Suffered under Pontius Pilate crucified, died and was buried 5. Descended into hell; on the third day he rose from the dead 6. He ascended into heaven and 7. seats at the right hand of God the Father almighty 8. From there he will come to jugde the living and dead.
9. I believe in the Holy Spirit
10. the Holy Catholic Church
11. (Sacraments) the communion of saint the forgiveness of sins the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting . 12 Amen
The nicene creed is an explaination of the apostles creed. I thought the Vat2/Pope/Church had done away with the Apostles creed.
You guys already updated the Creed one once
@@Supablonde1 what scripture says everything must be in your Bible
Concerning the creed: in essence, keep it, but adding the Real Presence of BBSD as affirming all the above beliefs. Nicely done program.
Dear Friends in the Church, I only discovered your podcast earlier this year. In fact, I wrote a response to your segment on film portrayals of Jesus. (Max Von Sydow was my personal choice.)
Regarding things that Catholics hate to hear, may I offer a suggestion for a future podcast? (Apologies if you’ve covered this already!) This Catholic is tired of today’s media narrative that Pope Pius XII did nothing to help Jews during the Holocaust. Plenty of evidence has been revealed over the years indicating the opposite - that he was responsible for saving as many as 860,000 Jews! Pius was widely praised during the war, and upon his passing in 1958. But today, painting him as a villain has become the norm.
Our Church must bear its share of blame. It is past time for Catholic leaders to carry a unified message to the world media and the community at large: Pope Pius XII is a genuine Catholic hero. And it is a disgrace that, in the face of opposition from outside the Church, Pius has not been made a saint, 65 years after his death!
Keep up the good work, guys!
When Jesus went to a mountain with some of the apostles. The transfiguration happend where two other men were with him. Jesus did not tell his apostles that they are going to meet two other men and even mentioned their identities. But the apostles recognized these men even they were born generations before them, that it was Elijah and Moses whom Jesus were talking to. It was not mentioned that Jesus introduced them to his apostles or they were wearing a sash that would giveaway their identities. So probably there were statues that was built or paintings made to commemorate them. That there face will be recognized once they appear. Thank you brothers for defending our faith, the one true church built by Jesus Christ.
Love this Catholic Talk Show. God bless you all.
Yes, I think believing in the true presence of Jesus in the Eucharist should be added in the Creed.
Hey recently subscribed here.
I am a Christian with a RC background and a currently Pentecostal expression I live out. I have 100% sympathy with the things we are sick of hearing! People I worship with and fellowship with often have so many false notions about Catholics and Catholicism. I do know that there are quite a few Catholic (nominally) people who don't actually understand their own present opportunity to be in Christ, and who will happily perpetrate these same falsehoods. I would totally love it if for the points you have brought up here you would use the comments or the pin to share some links for the documentary references that you spoke about. It might seem lazy to ask you for for it, but I think it could help to support my arguments when I speak back at these things! Thanks for this show.
