- Circumcision - Praise God Christian’s do not need this to be saved.
God did not leave his Church without clear leadership.
Praise God He gave humanity the Catholic Church, so that if any questions are left unanswered, or answers need clarifying, or need to be understood in context of the times, we can rely on the Catholic Church throughout the centuries to answer them. Rather than being left in confusion.

His mouth is sweetness itself; he is altogether Muhammad. This is my beloved, this is my friend, oh daughters of Jerusalem.

The Hebrew word mahmadim (Hebrew word מחמדים has been translated as (desirable, lovely) in Song of Solomon 5:16
The ( im) used in word is plural of respect of royalty.. for example actual name of God in (Genesis 1:1) is Alohim (im) plural of respect of royalty in Hebrew language. Grammatically noun is not translated in grammar so name should be kept in its original form as Muhammad.....
JESUS says keep Sabbath holy!
POPE says keep Sunday holy!
7th day Sabbath = (Exodus 20:8-11)
1st day Sunday = (Mark 7:7)
“The Bible says remember that thou keep the Sabbath day. The Catholic Church says, 'NO!'. By my divine power, I abolish the Sabbath day and command you to keep holy the first day of the week. And, lo, the entire civilized world bows down in reverent obedience to the command of the holy Catholic Church." Father Enright, American Sentinal, June

Exactlyyyy
@@Jesus_Muslim9999 so irrelevant, out of nowhere you are commenting.
We are saved by the grace of God through our LORD and savior Jesus Christ.
For while we were yet sinners God did not forsake us. while we were fully deserving of Gods wrath he still loved us. being in sin and separated from God he sent his only begotten son Jesus Christ to die for us on the cross to save us from our sins. |
Jesus lived a perfect life we could not; spotless without sin he went to the cross and paid for our sins. he was then raised again from the dead defeating death giving us a way to eternal life through Him and Him alone.
Now that we are saved what do we do continue to sin so that grace may abound? no.. now that we are saved we have the ability through the help of the Holy Spirit we can repent and turn away from our sin relying on God when it becomes burdensome. Not only that we are now called to share the gospel and help one another and love one another.
For while we were yet sinners he loved us. How much more does he love us now that we are made righteous through the blood of Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ intercedes for us when we pray, we do not pray to saints or to stars but to God. even when we do not know what to say the Holy Spirit Intercedes for us with groanings that cannot be uttered as God already knows what is in our hearts and what we desire.

(addon as theres alot of questions about works in this chat)
read James 2
---------------------------------
Works does not lead to salvation only Jesus does. regardless from this point forward if you choose to not have faith in Jesus but continued to only do good works you would never be able to earn your way to heaven as it is all dirty rags in the eyes of the living God.
we are made clean only through the blood of Jesus Christ.
we are made into a new creation made anew with a mind that is regenerative; our old desires no longer please us we repent and turn away from the things we once enjoyed instead setting our eyes on the things above and on Jesus Christ.
be weary if you believe you are saved but have no change of heart no desire to read or to spend time with God but instead you continue to indulge in your sinful ways your soil could be filled with thorns and weeds that are chocking out your seeds.
we can say we have faith but if that faith has no works it is DEAD. not that works brings forth salvation but that having faith means you will be pursuing the will of God doing good works not because it makes you holy or good or even brings you salvation but because it is pleasing to God and you yearn to do his will.
this is not to say we wont struggle in sin because we are warned that we will that even when our spirits are willing our flesh will be weak. regardless we are to keep fighting picking up our cross daily striving for righteousness and holiness as the Holy Spirit Guides us. we arent meant to only be readers of the word but also doers of the word.
How dare you quote the Bible. Only the pope is allowed to say words from God
@@henrybierman8431 then why does Jesus command everyone to be in the word 😜 jk jk ik your joking also hope your having a great day!
Actually Pay didn't say that we are saved by faith ALONE. He said that we are saved by faith "apart from works" (Ephesians 2:8). These two statements are not the same thing
@@jerome8950we aren’t saved by works but through faith. Because it’s not possible to be saved by works. By being saved and accept Jesus and allowing our hearts to be renewed we should see good fruit. Meaning while we are saved by faith in what Jesus did on the cross our life our works should be good not because it saves us but because we have a new heart. If we say we are saved but we produce bad fruit and live a life of sin without repentance we are a liar.
“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,”
Ephesians 2:8
“yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.”
Galatians 2:16
“What shall we say, then? That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, a righteousness that is by faith; but that Israel who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness did not succeed in reaching that law. Why? Because they did not pursue it by faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone, as it is written, “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offense; and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.””
Romans 9:30-33
@@PixelatedMagikarp
I find it interesting that you referenced Galatians 2:16 where Paul says that we are not justified by "works of the LAW". Is it EVERY work that is a "work of the LAW" ?
Paul specifically said that "works of the LAW" are not required for salvation. He didn't say EVERY KIND OF WORK is not required for salvation. I am sure you know that there are some works that are NOT examples of "works of the LAW".
I hope you realize that the "LAW" Paul is talking about here is the Law of MOSES, and Paul has always taught that observing the requirements of the LAW OF MOSES is NOT necessary for salvation (for instance, in Acts chapter 15, we see that Paul opposed those who claimed that CIRCUMCISION was necessary for salvation. And we all know that circumcision is one of the rituals contained in the Law of MOSES).
So once again, let me point out to you that Paul was not excluding EVERY KIND OF WORK as requirements for salvation. He was only excluding the "works of the LAW OF MOSES". This is because faith needs to be accompanied by certain kinds of works (that are NOT "works of the LAW") in order for a person to be saved. He never said that faith ALONE saves neither did he say that works ALONE saves.
The Holy Spirit over the Catholic Church.. That is what we really need
Well, the descent of the Holy Ghost at Pentecost was in fact witnessed by the people that Jesus hand-picked as His Apostles with St. Peter installed as the first pope of His Church that He specifically stated would stand against the gates of hell. Notice how Christ never mentioned that this would be His Church until the Protestant Reformation in the 1500’s, then it will no longer matter whether people are in Communion with the Catholic Church because all they need is the Holy Spirit. He never said that. You may want to rethink your assessment and do some research into early church history and that you may be set free in the truth that is the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church that has been here since Christ walked the earth and that will be here until He comes again in His glory.

Ok now your just being rude whoever you are and your mocking. Isn't that sin? I'm not condeming you, i'm just pointing it out. We've all sinned we need Jesus Christ to sace us and heal us.
Shalom shalom good sir
My issue with the Catholic Church is mainly two fold. A. They believe in a works based salvation which goes against most of Paul’s teaching. (Romans)
B. They pray to saints and place Mary almost as in a similar prominence as Jesus. All of which is unbiblical. In this regard it seems they place their extra books on the same level as the Bible. To me that is very shaky.
So, these are reasons why I could not be Catholic.
a. i think what many protestants get wrong is how they view the word "works". They read it as meaning "one must do things to earn salvation". But this isnt what works means. Works simply mean to follow and do as christ said. To "take up your cross and follow after Christ" is an example of a work. Following the 10 commandments is a work. Going to mass every sunday is a work. Breaking bread "in memory of me" is a work. To make it clear (as a catholic), we cannot buy or earn our way into heaven or Gods love. But we must maintain our relationship with God. As james says "keep fighting to the end".
b. Praying to saints (or those in heaven before us) is older than Christianity. The Jews practiced this. As a non catholic, it may seem we put saints like mary ahead of jesus. But if you look at these prayers, they all ultimately lead to Jesus. The bible teaches that in heaven, saints take "bowls of incense" (which are the prayers from earth) to the throne of God. This gives us confidence that the saints in heaven still care about us. We simply ask of them to pray for us. Why? Because 1. the bible says they are righteous and 2. because they are at the throne of God. It is equivalent to asking your friend to pray for you.
@@ComandoWitty Yes, amen that we are to keep the 10 commandments because faitrh without works is dead. However, the catholic church does not teach the 10 commandments. The papacy has changed times and laws and now the Sabbath is not kept and the second commandment was changed so that catholics can bow down to graven images.
Praying to dead people is not a Christian or a Jewish practice. The dead do not go straight to heaven or hell before the resurrection. The dead are asleep and will be resurrected at the second coming and then they will judged. How can people go to heaven or hell before they are judged? The dead are dead and they neither worship God nor know anything. God is clear that we are not to have anything to do with necromancy or inquiring of the dead.
@@ComandoWitty the problem with this argument is that the Bible says there is one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus. Also, in both Deuteronomy and Leviticus it explicitly says not to deal with anyone who consults with the dead. Read Luke 11:27-28 and even the paragraph or chapter in context. Men and women are never to be exalted or prayed to in place of the Lord, this is what we have the Holy Spirit for, to intercede with us with groaning to deep for words as the scripture says. Also, we are made righteous through a saving faith in Christ and saints in the Bible are people who had put their faith in Christ and followed Him this did not mean they did not have sin apart from Christ. With love in the Lord, this is truly not the equivalent of asking a friend for prayer. Apart from the already made distinction, you don’t pray to your friend to ask Him to intercede for you to the Lord, you would simply ask for prayer. And prayer is not about changing God’s mind it is a submission to the Lord’s will. God doesn’t need council from us or anyone else, He is in complete and total control.
@Pierre Perez your argument would be implying that prayer is useless. From God needing our prayers to God not wanting our prayers. Also regarding the dead, that verse was about someone using witchcraft to find something out. It's not the same as praying.
@@Vladi.G 1. As a catholic (who went to catechism 2 years ago to learn what being catholic is), i can assure you that the church does teach the 10 commandments. What you are getting at is how the church can list 9 off when asked to list the commandments. This is because 2 commandments can be summarized in one sentence. You can refute my answer, but little know fact, there were actually more than 10 commandments given to Moses but to keep it simple and to the point, 10 were memorized. This is bc the others were similar and can be summarized in one.
2. God never permitted image making. Go read the bible and find where he instructs moses to use a staff of a serpant to heal the jews from poisonous snakes and how they would bow to it or how God Himself instructs moses to craft images of angles for the arc.
3. You talking about the sabbath makes me think you are a 7 days Adventist who are the only ones who bring up that issue bc you are the only Christians who have an issue with the day
4. the dead do go to Heaven or hell. Abrahams bosom is no longer needed bc through christ defeating death, he reopened heaven to man. I mean, Jesus literally says to the sinner on the cross "you will be with be in paradise. I have no idea where you are getting heaven or hell aren't a place of destination.,

Authority. I love my Catholic Church. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic church. Thank you so much, Fr. Mike. God bless🤗🙏🕊
Ever since I been reborn I been only drawn to read Gods word , which showed me how to pray and who my mediator is . Moses was an intersessor for the Israelites . But only while he was Alive . Just like we can be for those who are alive and not saved . That’s what an intersessor is . That’s what the Bible tells us who were intersessors between God and those who didn’t obey God (In Sin) . We are only called to Pray one way , through the name of Jesus as he was the ONLY one who lived and could live a perfect life . Everyone after Adam and Even could not , but we can still learn to be obedient by doing his will over our own as the Old Testament and his discipline learn over and over again. This is what God shows me . He also tells me I don’t need anything else , no other teachings . He himself. He shows me what it means to repent and live in the spirit . For 3 weeks straight I been living in the spirit . I been learning what it means to be obedient. He shows me . Not Man . I confess my sins to him and he keeps me clean . He helps me repent , not a practice or certain prayer . The Pope says so many wrongfully things , that God did not say . Everyone talks about to be peaceful , yet Jesus says that he didn’t come here to bring peace , but to divide . Divide the righteous who follow him , or the wicked who stay in sin . Other teachings teach other things that are added prayers and intersessors . That’s what God shows me . I don’t go looking it up to be right . I have no idea what I’m even learning along the way but God is giving me clarity . All these things taken from revelation and put into the church , graven images all over . What he cares about is denying ourselves and living by the spirit . I pray for so many less things about my sinful nature . I can feel his righteousness take over my sinful nature , he makes it so much easier not to fall into temptation or get angry , or be anxious or stressed. All without going to church but reading his word only , which HE directs me to . He tells me I only need the Holy Spirit, to follow and pray through the name of Jesus , and my faith alone and to deny myself. I tried the Hail Mary prayer , and the spirit stopped me . There’s one person we pray through , and his name is Jesus Christ . The Only one we pray through . Following The Word of God is what leads us to righteousness. Not practice, or singing , or the same repetitive prayer . I find myself listening the the Bible more than music now . And it’s been so beautiful to the spirit . I fall in love with Him so much more.
pope JOhn Paul II even kissed the quran :S
I don't need to tell a men my sins and a earthly man can not forgive you of your sins only the Lord Jesus Christ can do that .
thats not what the bible says. If i may ask, don't you need a man to baptize you (which practically washes away your original sin)? Think about that. If you require a man to baptize you so you can enter heaven, why can one not rebaptize you through confession? James clearly teaches that in the bible.
The only way to heaven is thru jesus not ANY other amen
@@ramirocortez6392 weird. You believe in a Bible but that was gifted to you by the Catholic church. To say Jesus didn't use and is still using men is foolish. Did he not use Moses to lead his people? Or David or Abraham? Now why would Jesus leave us without another reader? He did.
@@ComandoWitty those words came from jesus that is the truest words spoken do not want to argue
Facts 💯
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- NOT BY WORKS, so that no one can boast.
Ephesians 2:8-9
We appreciate you Fr. Mike because you teach us so much of the understanding that we need.
That does not mean the catholic church! It means to come together with born again Christians, discussing and talking and being led by the holy spirit .
For more context, just cause I like this story, some Jewish teachers had traveled to the Church of Antioch (Greek/gentile church) and were teaching that unless you were circumcised...you could not be saved accordingly to the laws of Moses. Paul and Barnabas debated them on this and thus were appointed by to go back to Jerusalem and ask the disciples. In Jerusalem, after Paul and Barnabas testified of all the amazing things God had already done in the uncircumcised gentiles, the disciples decided circumcision clearly was not required. Truth be told, this was not a hard conclusion for them to make as God had already revealed to Peter that the uncircumcised could receive the Holy Spirit and notably one cannot receive the spirit unless they are saved.
Let's also remember that the Bible says "THE CHURCH" is the body of Christ...not the leaders of a religious institution. If you are a part of the body of Christ, you ARE the church.
Catholic -- the true church founded by Jesus Christ.
Amen
False.
It wasn’t founded by Jesus. That’s a lie from they perpetrated from the beginning. If Jesus founded it, then how come Catholics don’t have the assurance of salvation and need purgatory as a safety net in case they weren’t good enough?
Dafuq
False… Thats what they want you to believe.
When the apostles made this decision, it was because the Gentiles at Cornelius's house received the baptism in the Holy Spirit with speaking in unknown languages just as the 120 did in the upper room in Acts 2. It was undeniable to the Apostles that the Gentiles didn't need circumcision to be saved because of what the Holy Spirit of God did. The church didn't make the decision. The Holy Spirit did and the apostles followed His leading. Believers are to follow the Holy Spirit's leading and the Scriptures first and foremost. The Apostle Paul himself said, "Did Paul die for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul?" We are not to be followers of men, but followers of Christ. He is our ultimate authority - not a "church" that historically has sought to silence all opposition, discouraged people to read the Bible in their own language, and been overly involved in politics.
He's a false prophet, wolf in sheep's clothing that Jesus spoke about

@@johnosumba1980 The Catholic Church is full of Pharisees.
I think this is a little upside down. The whole point is that salvation is by faith alone. The Catholic Church has made very many rituals just as crucial to salvation as the Judaizers who were making circumcision. It’s the same thing under a new brand.
“Salvation is by grace through faith not of works so that no man may boast”
James 2?
It would have been so helpful for this god to produce and distribute his own book. It would not be full of errors and ambiguity. There would be far fewer debates over critical basics, as they would be very solidly, indisputably established from the start. We would not need to compare translations, consult concordances, or apologists who acrobatically manipulate words to spackle over obvious contradictions and errors. It is an insult to an truly existing god that one of his squishy mortal toys can imagine better solutions.
@@josephnavin4451 God cause division. You should read it yourself and understand he is creating a new people dividing us from the unjust and the unrighteous.
Our justification comes from the Grace of God. The call to eternal life is supernatural. It depends entirely on God’s gratuitous initiative, for He alone can reveal and give himself to us. Justification has been merited for us by the passion of Christ who offered himself on the cross and whose blood has become the atonement for the sins of all men. Sinful man cannot save himself!
Not so much…. It’s about Repentance, which means return to -> …return to what?
This is probably one of the better points I've seen Catholics make.
Read Acts chapter 15 and you’ll see that this has nothing to do with baptism it has everything to do with being saved!

@@janettebiggs4550 What's nonsensical? Who are you replying to?
@@bstein9500 I think she’s replying to the video? Acts doesn’t mention circumcision as a prerequisite for baptism and baptism isn’t done “in order to” be saved but rather a declaration that our great and merciful God has redeemed, saved, regenerated you.

History is not our teacher, The Word of God is. Man in history is sinful. Christ and His Word is our sole authority and teacher.
To be a Christian you do not need the Catholic religious system... only Jesus.
We are saved by grace alone, through faith alone, in Jesus alone. No saints or popes needed.
Not Scriptural at all.
Where does it say that in the Bible, James?
AMEN!!!
We aren’t saved by faith alone. That’s just not biblical.
Saints are simply Christians who have gone before us, and “ran the race.” Like the Bible said. So I don’t know why you included that.
And the Pope is the successor of Peter, which is both biblical and historical.

The church should not introduce new doctrine and teaching found outside of the Word and without the Holy Spirit, or it will cause many people to be lost - good luck facing God thinking you were authorized to change his church without his consent.
all dotorine is biblical and is inspired by the Holy Spirit. It's nothing new, as a catholic we believe that there is no new revolution, the church teaches what has already been said in the bible. Like the trinity wasn't an official teaching because it wasn't explicitly stated. but now it's known, we call this a private revolution.
I’m a Lutheran and I’m currently learning more and more about the Catholic Church out of curiosity. I prefer traditional Lutheran services over contemporary ones and I’ve discovered that of the Protestant denominations, traditional Lutheranism is the closest to Catholicism. I’ve come to really respect the Catholic Church to the point where I’m actually inquiring about converting. The only things holding me back are small things, like me not quite understanding the Rosary, the purpose/importance of the Papacy, and (not sure if all Catholics believe this) the fact that they believe you have to be or desire to be Catholic in order to be saved. I don’t really believe you have to be Catholic in order to be saved, but I’ve definitely thought about it a lot and it’s honestly been weighing on me recently- I want more than anything to be saved, and if it turns out I can’t make it into heaven because I made the simple mistake of not being Catholic… that scares me. But I also believe that my Lutheran faith is genuine; I love Jesus and accept him as my Lord and Savior, I do my best to turn from temptations and when I do mess up I repent to God and ask for forgiveness, and I go to church on a weekly basis, pray regularly, and often read the Holy Scripture. I believe that I am saved, but there’s always that lingering thought of “What if I have to be Catholic in order for these things to really mean something?” There’s a lot of uncertainty for me at the moment, and I have been praying to the Lord for wisdom and guidance on this matter. Anyways, massive respect to the Catholic Church coming from a Protestant, and God bless ❤️

Interesting, considering that the Disciples practiced Passover, Feast of Booths, Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, the Sabbath on Saturday, the Feast of Weeks, and the Feast of Unleavened Bread in accordance with long established tradition that Y'shua himself ALSO practiced while walking among us.
And yet the "Church" decided that Jewish influence was no longer allowed, even outlawing Sabbath practices on Saturday in the 9-10th Century AD in their Cardinal Edicts...
I wonder how Y'shua would feel about the Pope being equated to be like him with authority, power, and dictation, and calling himself the "Right Hand of God" on Earth...
Or praying to dead people and calling it "intercession"... Which is a stretch considering Scripture speaks of intercession with the brothers in congregation... Not in seances to the dead and departed.
Or the rosaries... Or putting Mary up as a "Queen of Heaven"...
Or that Mary retained her virginity, despite the fact that Y'shua would have several half brothers from Mary and Joseph...
Or that Peter would be Crucified in the city they call their seat of power... Where Roman Paganism was most dominant.
Which is especially interesting considering it was Paul who would establish the Way in Rome... Not Peter, who was relatively still reserved, throughout his life, in spreading the Gospel to the Romans.

I like how there are so many details to how the Bible was assembled over centuries when you actually hear it from a Catholic. Whereas American mouth breathers thank God just delivered it dropped it like a
Hahah yes 100%
They are like spoiled children. But the church is the bride of god and a mother to all believers, and it will welcome them back.
Jesus also never taught that you had to ask forgiveness from a man in a box sitting next to you, pray to saints or the Virgin Mary. What Jesus DID say is “ there is no path to the father but through me”. The catholic church has always been, and always will be false. And anyone who teaches their “views” is a false prophet
Well let’s clarify this a little bit.
It’s true Jesus didn’t say you have to sit in a box next to a person to confess your sins. In order to understand this you have to ask the question does the scripture refer to confession of sins? It sure does. Is the idea of a priestly order a part of scripture? Yes it is. As the early church began to develop from the very beginning so did the structure of the hierarchy.
The priestly role was different from the congregation.
If you were going to make the analogy about the man in the box and confessing to him, and not finding that in scripture,neither will you find the word Trinity in the scripture yet that is a fundamental doctrine of all Christians. The Father the Son and the Holy Spirit three persons one God. Nor will you find the word Incarnation in the scripture, a Theological description accepted by both Catholics and protestants referring to the nature of Jesus. Two natures both fully human and divine in the one person of Jesus Christ
Scripture is both explicit and implicit in its meaning. In order for clarification to occur Historically this is where the Catholic Church steps in. Since the scripture seems to be unclear on certain aspects of it, it was the authority of the church to determine which doctrines were to be accepted as true.
The Bible doesn’t self interpret.
The Catholic Church was the authority outside of the Scriptures that had to determine which scriptures were to be accepted as true scripture. That is how the apostolic succession worked. After the death of the last apostles, that authority from the apostles to determine doctoral issues was passed on to their successors. The Catholic Church can’t historically trace back its apostolic roots to the very beginning of the early church and to scripture itself
@@dand2760 before we go any further I must say anything I’ve said is not against you or your family. But I have a DEEP burning fire for those that go against God. And time and time again I’ve seen the catholic church contradict itself and steer completely the opposite direction I would think they would go. I’ve been to mass a few times with an old gf back in the day. So I wouldn’t say I know everything but I definitely know enough.
You def said a lot there and I appreciate you taking the time to say your view. My biggest red flag with its doctrine is only God and Jesus can forgive sin. No one else. Not an intermediary, not a saint, only The Most High. I am 100% a sinner and I do my best to correct myself and listen to the Holy Spirit as much as I can. But I have to say there are soooo many things that scream false in catholic doctrine. And I’m not a hypocrite, I was born into a southern baptist upbringing. And I saw what they were truly about. Self righteousness. So if I see it I make it known. I do believe demons are real. The catholic church is the only one that seems to be able to handle or expel them the best. Even considered studying catholic demonology, you want to know your enemy right? I must ask, from your prospective. Why does the church allow for a priest to forgive a persons sin? When that person is a sinner. You don’t need him to pray for you, that’s takes away the intimacy of knowing God and being able to speak to him
What reason did God, who is the only one who can forgive sins, say to His Apostles "Whose sins you shall forgive they are forgiven, whose sins you shall retain, they are retained"?
@@rebn8346 I’m not 100% sure cuz I wasn’t there. But I’d assume he meant forgiving sin done unto them. You CANNOT forgive sin of another for their salvation. That is God and Jesus alone. BUT you can forgive sins done onto you. Somebody steals something from you. You know them or feel pity for them, they ask for your forgiveness and are sorry for what they did. And you forgive them. You can forgive THAT sin as it is done to you. But you cannot forgive another’s sins for salvation. That’s what I believe, and it makes sense to me. Forgive a sin done to you, it is forgiven. Retain a sin, and it is retained. But who wants to retain a sin? Forgive and let it go. I feel if you don’t forgive someone that sin either way will fester in your life. Forgive it and it’s gone and done with which is better.
If Jesus meant to lead the ppl in the way of the catholic direction. Wouldn’t he say something like “ take them to a priest or Rabi that they may be forgiven”? It’s bull. Take a look at what God and Jesus say, then compare to the Catholic Church doctrine. COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Which is why I believe catholicism is false. Not to mention they edited the 10 commandments
@@rexnike1665 "take them to a rabbi that they may be forgiven" Jesus did do that. Is He not Priest and God? He ordained the Apostles priests at the last supper, and then says "Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them" that is telling you to go to a priest, is it not? Or do you not believe Jesus has power and authority?
so if you are not sure, and are going off your own personal feeling and interpretation, why is yours right and how can you say I'm wrong? how can you claim the Catholic Church is wrong?
"All pardon for sins ultimately comes from Christ’s finished work on Calvary, but how is this pardon received by individuals? Did Christ leave us any means within the Church to take away sin? The Bible says he gave us two means.
Baptism was given to take away the sin inherited from Adam (original sin) and any sins we personally committed before baptism. For sins committed after baptism, a different sacrament is needed. It has been called penance, confession, and reconciliation, each word emphasizing one of its.aspects. During his life, Christ forgave sins, as in the case of the woman caught in adultery (John 8:1-11) and the woman who anointed his feet (Luke 7:48). He exercised this power in his human capacity as the Messiah or Son of man, telling us, “the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins” (Matt. 9:6), which is why the Gospel writer himself explains that God “had given such authority to men” (Matt. 9:8).
Since he would not always be with the Church visibly, Christ gave this power to other men so the Church, which is the continuation of his presence throughout time (Matt. 28:20), would be able to offer forgiveness to future generations. He gave his power to the apostles, and it was a power that could be passed on to their successors and agents, since the apostles wouldn’t always be on earth either, but people would still be sinning.
God had sent Jesus to forgive sins, but after his resurrection Jesus told the apostles, “‘As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.’ And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained’” (John 20:21-23)."

@@matthewoburke7202 true.
@@matthewoburke7202 the church is the body of Christ
Absolutely. The apostles had to convene and/or had to intervene in 1st century churches regarding their misapprehensions of truths of the gospel, of ecclesiology, of Christian living. In other words, the shepherds and teachers and those with prophetic gifts were insufficient in their local expressions and HAD to be confronted by apostolic authority. So, the question is not of the church's authority separate from the principles of the Bible. The visible, structural church can go wrong by not comporting with the scripture. Therefore, the scripture and its principles is the apostolic measurement, not whether the church declares it itself or not.
Where in the Bible does it say to pray to Mary? Or to saints? It does not. It dies say not to call anyone on earth "father" in a spiritual sense. Also only God forgives preachers have nothing to do with it. The Catholic Church is Modern Babylonian sun/saturn/satan worship.

Circumcision is more of a hygienic procedure
One of my kids was a preemie and the doctor recommended we wait to have him circumcised. He ended up with phimosis at the age of 4 so we had to go ahead with the procedure.
As a Catholic I believe that all sacraments, along with attending weekly Mass, avoiding sin, showing charity to others, and following the 10 Commandments are the recipe needed for salvation
Notice you didn't say Accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior
Accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior already goes along with the things I mentioned. When we accept Christ it’s not a one- time event, or a “curtain call”, “altar call” , etc., and bam it’s done.
We are all born with Original Sin. That’s why we start with Baptism to wash away that sin. Our parents are the ones who are responsible for getting us baptized. From that point on it’s up to our parents to train us up in the faith. All along the way we are accepting Christ as our Lord and Savior. The journey continues as we grow and go through life.
The catholic church has changed so much that is unrecognizable. No support for the family structure, no support for the troubled youth, no support to the Christian community. Once you start looking around you can see God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are not solely a Catholic concept. And that the catholic is just a punitive congregation interested in one thing… Power.
How so?
Catholics teach a works based salvation anyhow. How would a catholic ever know they’re saved if you have to earn salvation ?
I am Catholic and it is only by the grace of God that we are saved. When one believes in Jesus Christ as God incarnate and redeemer for all mankind your actions may reflect good works. No amount of good works can save us.
@AlphonsIus Menkefor amen brother. Our good works do not save us, they prove that we are saved. You identify as catholic but the Catholic Church does not teach that we are saved only by grace through faith. They teach a works based salvation and hold the position that we can never know for sure whether or not we are saved with any certainty. I would recommend finding a Protestant church that reflects your position which is in line with the true gospel. Catholicism teaches a perverted gospel mixed with works and sacraments etc.
Your claim is wrong. Catholics don't believe in works based salvation
@Sassy Chimpanzee yes, they do. “According to official Catholic doctrine, in order for a person to be saved, it's quite a tedious task. It involves steps such as actual grace, faith, good works, baptism, participation in the sacraments, penance, indulgences, and keeping the commandments”
@@Austin-qj8qx Do you believe we shouldn’t have/do those things to be closer to Christ? You’re acting like any of those are “bad” things.. they are not.

Apostolic authority. Amen
Based on a papal line of succession, that includes popes that have been declared heretical or put under the ban.
In the end, the authority of man (i.e. apostolic authority) does NEVER trump the authority of God.
Two things the RCC deliberately confuses.
@@j.p.vanbolhuis8678God gave the church authority. Matthew 18:17
@@christsavesreadromans1096 Yep and isn't it also written "men are the head of their wife, like Christ is the head of his Church"
So where do you think it is the place of a local church first to claim it is the only one and then to replace Christs rule with papal rules.
Matthew 15:3 is a warning not only to the religious leadership in Jesus' time, but also today:
"3 And He answered and said to them, “Why do you yourselves transgress the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition? "
He then gives an example of this behaviour, where tradtions trump Gods law. Like in the RCC where without obedience to the pope salvation is impossible (according to the RCC). Lets be silent at the excessive and idolatrous position Mary has been pressganged into.
Verse 8, 9 and further apply
8 ‘This people honors Me with their lips,
But their heart is far away from Me.
9 But in vain do they worship Me,
Teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.’ ”
Now this warning does not ONLY apply to the RCC, it applies in larger or lesser parts to all churches. But the RCC makes it its core business to declare human rules as godly law.
@@christsavesreadromans1096 As for specifically Matthew 18:17, if you read the text you will find it does not say "Church" or even ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH, or even "That organisation that must be led by Peter", it says "church" or more precisely,
ἐκκλησίᾳ
The next verse we find this word is Acts 5:11 and it speaks of the church in Jerusalem, where clearly Peter played an important role, but was he the leader?
You see in multiple stories that Peter gives account of his deeds, and apparently the leadership (apostles and elders) are judging him. Peter is not above Judgement.
In Antioch Peter is rebuked by Paul. Can the lesser rebuke the superior?
And finally in Acts 15, we see the same council, (in jerusalem, not rome) and Peter gives a speech and that is then followed by James who gives a judgement.
What we see here is not hierachy with Peter as Big Boss, we see a meeting of equals, where Peter has no position of Authority over the others.
And if you wand to hold to "you are the Petros(pebble, loose rock) and on this Petra (cliff/ rock mountain) i will bild my church then realise that that Petra in every case is not Peter, but the words he speaks.
Now popes could contribute to that Petra, if only they spoke Gods words, and not the words of human tradition and kissing korans (John Paul II), or hosting muslim prayers in the Vatican (Francis). Where both popes should have preached the Gospel: Jesus Christ, Died and Resurrected, they both chose platitudes and lies.
They did not contribute to Petra, they even tried to undermine the Gospel.
@@j.p.vanbolhuis8678 The Church of Rome isn’t the only Catholic Church, but all Catholic Churches must agree with her as the RCC has supremacy based on it’s establisher: Apostle Peter.
The Church was built on Apostle Peter as the Bible clearly teaches (Matthew 16:18-19), and Peter, specifically out of all the apostles, was tasked with feeding the sheep; that is the believers. (John 21:15-17).
He was given the keys and the authority to bind and loose on heaven and earth. This is why if you’re disobeying the RCC, then you’re disobeying Jesus as Jesus is the one who gave authority to the Church.

Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them” (Matt. 5:17)
“Furthermore, we declare, we proclaim, we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff.”
Sorry but I can’t agree with a church that says things like this. It’s time to get back to the Bible/Christ and away from the “church.”
Amen 🙏
Get back to the Bible? The one that the Catholic Church compiled and gave you? Get back to Christ? Like going to confession as commanded in John 20:23, receiving the Eucharist as commanded in John 6, and submitting to the Catholic Church and papacy instituted in Matthew 16?
@@DoctorDewgong the catholic church did not give us the bible . God gave us the bible . If you belive that the catholic church gave us the bible then you are saying that all the teaching in it comes from men not from God and that would be a terrible sin as the bible is the word of God. If the bible is the word of God then only God can give us the word and not the catholic church. Besides , its not who gives you something but how you use it . Once my father gave me an old knife . He used to carry it in his pocket just in case. Shall i do like he did ? I kept the knife as a reminder of him but i wont carry it in my pocket just in case . Its not what you have or where you got it from but how you use it . The first church was the one that moses took out of israel . Those were under the protection of God together as a church. Most of them didnt make it like in churches today . Today we prefere to trust men then God . Most prefere to trust the pope then Gods word . Its enough to make a quick history of the popes to see what kind of men they were and how they had nothing to do with God. Espescially pope boniface . Pope John paul also united with other religions for peace but Jesus never compromised and died for the truth. The difference i see between the word of God and the catholic church is so great that you have to be blind not to see it but like in those times , the blind man wanted to see and he saw but most of men had good eye vision and still didnt see . Do not lean on your own understanding and trust the word of God. Have a blessed day.
@@darrencaruana1350 my brother in Christ the Bible was compiled at the councils of Rome and two others in the 4th century. The books themselves are divinely inspired but the Church compiled them into the Bible we know today
@@100megatonYT maybe the church back then but not the corrupt church we have today and sadly this is the truth. I know many so called catholics will go to heaven and many so called christians like myself will go to hell because ultimatly it only matters that you follow God and do his will. Titles are irrelevant . Have a blessed evening
I was raised episcopal, now go to a community church yet I'm drawn to the Catholic church. I struggle with 2 issues I don't understand, but it's a beautiful and old religion.
Which two issues?
Hi :) would you care for some resources? Im Catholic and i can assure you it is a beautiful religion and is the one true Church instituted by Jesus Christ Himself. I can understand how it all might be so much to grasp all at once-and it is- but do not worry; put your Faith in God and pray to Him ask him like a daughter to her Father asking with a contrite heart. Jesus loves to hear us call out to Him and will come to us like a caring Father He is, of course! Learn the Our Father and Hail Mary for starters and you’ll see how precious these prayers that come from Sacred Scripture are.
@@rebn8346 our 10 commandments are different than the Catholics. It seems they split one commandment into two to make 10 and dropped the do not worship idols and it's hard to accept the sacraments turning into actual blood and flesh during the Eucharist. That being said I know we tiny brained people cannot comprehend the ways of our Lord.
@@eesoteric. I would welcome any reference material, and I am always happy to hear from true and genuine believers. ❤️
@@doxiemom95 The 10 commandments are different in the catholic Bible because the papacy is a false teacher.
The prophecies about the antichrist in Daniel 7, 2 Thessalanians 2, and throughout Revelation all clearly point to the papcy. There are about 10 criteria that are perfectly matched with the papacy including time prophecies. For example, the Bible says that the antichrist will persecute the church for 1260 years. In 538 the Justinian decree gave the papacy political and military power and that power was used to persecute the saints... anyone who did not agree with the catholic church's pagan teachings and practices was persecuted and/or killed. Then in 1798 Napoleon removed this power from the papacy. From 538 to 1798 we have exactly 1260 years. Another example would be the changing of times and laws that were prophesied in the Bible... the papacy has changed times (Sabbath is no longer kept by most Christians and now Sunday is the supposed holy day) and laws (the second commandment regarding worshipping graven images is not in the catholic Bible).
The Bible tells us to get out of Babylon. There are many Christians in the catholic church, but the papacy and the catholic church as an institution is wicked and in the end it will once again persecute the saints.
Let me know if you're interested in studying these things further.
Matthew 23, "call no man teacher", "call no man father". John 4 "no longer will yyou worship at the temple in Jerusalem nor on the mountain". Luke 23:39-44 a clear demonstration that John 14:6 is absolutely true as juxtaposed against Deuteronomy 21:22-23. No church, no man simply a living God, Jesus!
I used to be Jewish. G-d required circumcision as a covenant between man and God for Jewish people and Muslim people. It is not required for Christians.
thanks for the l'info
Imagine if the Vatican would let the library be public, it would probably blow all the Catholic stuff apart
Or it’d be an unparalleled historical archive
It IS public. You CAN visit it.
JUST certain books (well, rooms actually) needs you to be prepared and authorized to be granted, just like you would in any other museum.
Many have been there, both religious and atheists.
Another thing to mention is many things in there are likely thousands of years old. Of course they’re not just gonna let people see it lol

It’s sad that my Christian brothers know that the word of god is corrupted by men but still don’t want to accept the fact that god send the prophet Mohammed(PBUH) to bring he’s words once again
After reading the comments, I just want to try and explain something. Pretty much everything the Catholic Church does is through Christ, through the teachings of Christ, or through deliberation between Christ and members of the church.
So confession for example, it’s not the priest acting as God, but the priest acting through God. If I remember correctly, Jesus taught us to do this when he healed the paralytic.
I dont need the Pope, all i need is Christ.
I dont need the magisterium, all i need is the Bible.
"find it in the bible.."
Matthew 16,18
[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.
If you think that God uses people to do his works, than you must also believe that those people, not in the bible, can do God's work even today.
@@hermesgarcia8924 Oh, so Pope Francis is carrying on Christs work by pushing gay stuff, bowing to pagan idols, putting the pagan idols in synods and saying that Jews and Muslims worship the same God as Christians?
What about the popes that’ve allowed the selling of indulgences or all the popes that’ve committed various acts of murder, blasphemy and adultery?
I only need one pope to commit one wrong to show that the Pope is not infallible, and if he’s not infallible at one moment then he can’t be infallible at another, the Spirit does not play musical chairs with its host.
Of course you’ll split hairs on this, and make a thousand defenses for this or that, you’ll say the Pope is only infallible when he does this or that and you’ll make other lame excuses, but the fact of the matter is that your entire position is bankrupt and you know it is.
The pope is no more the vicar of Christ than the whore, thief, murderer or pagan is.
@@hermesgarcia8924 Your argument pre-supposes the Pope, I could use the same argument to show that Luther was used by God to reverse the harms done by the Pope. Any person can be used by God at any time, it’s not exclusive to the Pope or Magisterium.
Can you prove that every Pope and every member of the Magisterium has been delegated by God to do His work without circular argumentation? I doubt it.
Who told you what the bible is? Catholic church did in 4th century
You dont need to be circumcised to be baptized and you dont have to be baptized to be saved. Glory to Jesus Christ for making salvation easy and accessible for everyone.
"For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them" (Matthew 18:20). The church is an organism. Not an organization. It is a gathering of believers. You do not have to be Catholic to believe in Christ. You do not need the Catholic Church. And if you research Catholic dogma like the four Marian dogma, papal infallibility, purgatory, the treasury of merit, and transubstantiation among other things and try to square these Catholic teachings with what the Bible actually says in context, you will see that Catholicism is not only unbiblical but also anti-biblical. The more I learn about Catholic dogma, the more I find myself leaning towards the idea that the Catholic Church is the anti-Christ.
I agree with this. But how does this mean we Christian’s need Catholics? I know about -3 people (sarcasm) who have been circumcised AND baptized, as christans. This… I dont… why? Why does this have any controversy twords christans. We literally agree with this.
This is a good argument that I have not heard before. I appreciate your style Father Mike.
Matthew 23:9
@@ChristRedemption_Ministries I get your point. However, before we judge Catholics, they carried the Christian church for roughly 1500 years before Protestants existed.
@@ChristRedemption_Ministries Jesus called Abraham father in John 8:56-58.
Paul called himself a father in 1 Corinthians 4:15.
So either you don't understand what Jesus meant in Matthew 23:9. Or Jesus contradicted himself in John 8:56-58.
so many protestants but never united protestants that agree on what's true.
The "church" is all who are born again, in Christ. Born of the spirit. NOT the catholic church or any other church.
Nor do u need to be baptised, rather, you need to be born again.
Believe and be saved is key
I still get phantom foreskin pains from my circumcision.
You should probably see a doctor about that.
Acts chapter 15 is them saying the only way you get saved is by grace through faith and that there is nothing else you do to get saved like getting circumcised. Which is exactly what Jesus taught them. It's not just some random thing the church came up with. This still doesn't give the catholic church any type of authority. The catholic church trys to give itself authority. You have no authority. Jesus has the authority. The word of God has the authority.
It doesn't say " to be baptized:" it says " To be saved" for MANY of them were already baptized.
Thank you Father Mike for your wisdom and knowledge!!! May God bless you abundantly always!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🎶🎶🍰🍰
Matthew 23:9. I love you!
Matthew 23:9
There is no salvation in the Catholic church, it has been against God since its foundation.
Jesus Christ is the Saviour, you are not the Saviour. You do not save yourself, He saves you and it's by putting your trust in Him alone, not in your "works of righteousness" which can never save you.
I have a gospel presentation by a trustworthy pastor, watch it, understand, believe and be saved, it lasts for eternity.
Demonstrate that Jesus exists and that any human needs to be "saved."
@@mewho6199 demonstrate that he doesn’t. You can’t see love but you can feel it. If the earths axis was off but a millimeter the world would be destroyed if the sun was any closer destroyed the genomes in our bodies are built perfectly the trees every thing serves a purpose and all of this happened by pure accident? Don’t think so.
@@mewho6199 the bible isnt just a book of stories. Its autobiographies of people who actually existed. If Jesus wasnt real then why did 500 million christians become martyrs during the great tribulation?
@@mewho6199 How can you demonstrate the existence of a historical figure, which died 2000 years ago and was risen in heaven. Countless of eye witnesses for the resurrection and many roman writings about the crucifixion.
But nevermind, you expect someone to give you the proof of the existence of a spiritual being on the internet in youtube comment section? Get out of here...
The Catholic church is founded by Jesus and it has apostolic succession of highest among equals bishops since st.Peter. You probably ment protestant church?
My issue with the Catholic Church is that it is a mixture of Christianity and Paganism. It fulfills all of the identifying characteristics of the beast power with the mark.
I’m Protestant and am circumcised
Watch out when they play dress up, as if they are Godly.
Like the man who wears a $2000 suit on Sunday morning and he is the center of the church...I agree. Protestants can't even agree on Baptism or Salvation.
It's like this preacher understands nothing about baptism ,
Baptism is you confession before God in the name of Jesus Christ for your sins ahead of judgement .
Once baptised you are no longer facing the coming judgement you're awaiting your sentencing for your confession .
Jesus states what the sentence is .
Sentence = forgiven by grace so no-one can boast , and eternal life in the kingdom of God as as a member of his kingdom.
I think you missed the point of this small clip (pun intended).
The point was that in the very early Church, they were unsure if circumcision was necessary. The Church came together, decided that it was not necessary, and so you could get baptised even if you are not circumcised.
Therefore, when other topics of debate come up (like is Jesus actually God, or was he just a created being), the Church comes together and makes a decision.
It happened in the Bible and has continued throughout history.
That's a lot for an infant to spit out.
James 2,24
[24]Do you see that a man is justified by means of works, and not by faith alone?
@@hermesgarcia8924 Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Romans 11:6 But if it is by grace, it is no longer on the basis of works; otherwise grace would no longer be grace.
Romans 3:20-24 For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin. But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the Law and the Prophets bear witness to it- the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction: for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
2 Timothy 1:19 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,
@@hermesgarcia8924 Titus 2:11-15 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, 12 training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, 13 waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.
15 Declare these things; exhort and rebuke with all authority. Let no one disregard you.
Titus 1:16 They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work.
Hermes First comes your baptism then you receive the holy spirit and the spirit makes you zealous for good works for the Lord , but it is not by works you are saved .
The teaching of scripture was always that circumcision was of the "heart" not of the flesh. The apostles didn't come to this by their own understanding but knew it from within scripture.
As stated in the bible, Jesus was a circumcised Jewish boy who became a Jewish Rabbi teaching his form of Judaism to Jewish people.
Christianity doesn’t preach that I believe that’s the Jews. However my only issue with Catholics is they pray to Mary which is an angel the Bible says to only pray to him to no angel for they are not god
Christianity and Judaism are based on the same book of myths.
@@mewho6199 well how I would put it to you if I’m wrong about god I have what you already got which is nothing if I am right which I am iv had many personal experience of unexplainable things happen that has proven it to me I have heaven my loved ones that has past no sickness pure joy and happiness. Look into it you may be surprised if ya go in with an open mind friend. The 10 commandments is written in everyone’s hearts through every religion from every corner of the world. Earth isn’t ment to be heaven things happen it’s a test to choose who we will serve.
Mary the mother of Jesus is still buried and sleeping until Jesus wakes her up at the first resurrection. The mary that the Catholics worship is a demon. It makes sense because theyre religion is 80% christianity and the rest is pagan.
@@lynnh1682 there is no resurrection in that sense we do not lye asleep in the ground for hundreds of years until judgement day. 2 corintheins 5:8 kings James version. There is a gulf the good and the bad until judgment day. All of this is in the Bible. Where the dead rise from the graves sounds like a horror movie and no where is it in the Bible
@@lynnh1682 and idk about a demon but I know they pray to her which is wrong she is not god
Everything the Bible says about God, the Catholic Church says of itself.
I have one argument for all Catholics, why do you pray to mary and other dead people when the lord clearly states in Leviticus chapter 26”[1] Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.
“ there is also a Scripture which says that we should not talk to the dead.reject all religion search for truth and only truth read your Bible live based off the Bible not based off religion , the word of his is clear . Praise be to our lord god yeshua
>implying the Apostles are the Roman catholic church
>implying this truth was decided not revealed
>ignoring that all Christians are Christ's priesthood
1. history tells us that Jesus Christ and the apostles founded the Catholic Church, and since apostolic succession is Biblically-sound, yes.
2. the royal priesthood =/= the spiritual priesthood.
