      Be it known: through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
      Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry.
      Catholicism has it's own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples!
      These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
      There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
      They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
      Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
      "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
      Revelation 22:8-9 KJV
      8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
      9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
      Acts 2:38 KJV
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      Luke 11:13 KJV
      13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
      John 14:21-24 KJV
      21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
      22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
      23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
      24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*
      3 John 1:11 KJV
      11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. *He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.*
      1 John 3:6-10 KJV
      6 *Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.*
      7 Little children, let no man deceive you: *he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.*
      8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
      9 *Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.*
      10 *In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,* neither he that loveth not his brother.

      @@Call_Upon_YAH I tell you this with complete sincerity. If you ever hope to convince us Catholic Christians that we are deceived and wrong, the #1 step on your part is to actually learn about the Catholic faith, honestly and with genuine effort to properly understand our beliefs.
      Because as it is, any Catholic Christian even remotely well catechized will immediately recognize that you don't know what you are talking about when it comes to the Catholic faith and are misrepresenting it - knowingly or not.
      Imagine a Muslim or atheist or anyone else coming to you and trying to convince you that you are wrong and have been deceived, and they then proceed to completely misrepresent your beliefs (Muslims and atheists, for example, do this all the time), and pretends to understand your beliefs better than you do yourself, would you take such a person seriously?
      So, as long as Catholic Christians read comments such as yours and immediately recognize that their beliefs are being misrepresented, they will not consider anything you have to say - nor should they.
      So I'd suggest you start by following our Lord's teaching about doing to others as you'd have them do to you. You wouldn't want someone to act as though they were knowledgeable about your beliefs when they obviously aren't, and then proceed to tell you that you are deceived and make a bunch or arguments that are irrelevant to what you actually believe. You wouldn't want others to do that to you, and it wouldn't convince you if they did. So both for moral reasons and practical reasons, you should modify your strategy as to give you at least a chance at convincing someone.
      And I know, I know. You *think* you are knowledgeable about the Catholic faith. But as a fervent and well studied Catholic Christian, I can assure you that I do not recognize my faith in what you presented and your "argument" completely misses the target.

On the contrary, when Christ commanded that the faith be passed on to posterity he specifically enjoined “Apostolic Authority” and “Liturgical traditions” as the proper modes of its transmission. (Matthew 28; Luke 22:19; Luke 10:16) He says not a word about relying on the Bible alone. Neither did the Apostles. You proof text that’s your opinion.

      @@mc07 Christ would not even bother to create a Church of his own if He thought that it is not necessary and important for our Salvation like Baptism. You are simply confused and wrong. Your problem is that you are a relativist, you don't believe in the Truth, or just believe the 'truths' which are convenient for you. If there is no truth inherent to reality then we or anything in the universe simply couldn't even exist. If there is no truth in any natural phenomenon, such as water or air, or in a human (and, or divine) phenomenon such as the existence of the genuine, original and authentic Church founded by Christ Himself, then we can quit right now to the search of any knowledge or experience, just close your eyes and mind. But: "Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter (aramaic: Kefa=Rock), and on this rock (aramaic: Kefa=Rock) I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.” Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.".

      First I ask you:
      Do you know what Canon Law is?
      It seems you have no idea of what it is.
      Here's a brief explanation:
      Canon Law is the oldest continuous legal system in the western world. It is an internal system of law within the Catholic Church which respects civil law, as long as civil law is not in conflict with what the Church sees as just and moral. The current Code of Canon Law was promulgated in 1983 by Pope John Paul II. The 1983 Code is a revision of the previous 1917 Code. The revision was a direct result of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65), and the goal of the revision process was to translate the Second Vatican Council’s teaching into the 1983 Code.
      Regarding your negative attitude towards the one Church Jesus founded, here's something you missed about a God that NEVER changes who fulfills what He promised:
      ▪︎MATTHEW 16:18-19
      18. And so I say TO YOU, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build MY CHURCH, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.
      19. I will give you the Keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
      Notice the specificity of the words: "My Church" in singular.
      Furthermore, the divine promise is upon Peter and his successors who will inherit the keys for the benefit of future generations.
      I ask you:
      Do you really think divisions are acceptable to our Lord?
      Absolutely not!
      He therefore tells you and all divided members of protestant churches and sects what He wants them to be:
      JOHN 17:21-23
      21. so that they MAY ALL BE ONE, as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me.
      22. And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may BE ONE, as WE ARE ONE,
      23. I in them and you in me, that they may be brought to PERFECTION AS ONE, that the world may know that you sent me, and that you loved them even as you loved me.
      "PERFECTION AS ONE" Gives no room for exceptions in the singular "Church" built on Peter which is forever guided to ALL TRUTH.
      ▪︎JOHN 16:13
      13 But when the Spirit of truth has arrived, he will teach the whole truth to you. For he will not be speaking from himself. Instead, whatever he will hear, he will speak. And he will announce to you the things that are to come.
      Our Lord gives a permanent mission for His Church to fulfill:
      ▪︎MATHEW 28, 18-19
      18. Then Jesus approached and said to them, “All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
      19. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit,
      He then concludes with an eternal and solemn promise to His one true Church:
      ▪︎MATHEW 28, 20
      20. teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, UNTIL THE END OF THE AGE.”
      "Until the end of the age" means FOREVER.
      May God bless your discernment.

      @@ChristIsLord7 Fr. Mike has a good video of why be Catholic instead of Protestant. It has nothing to do with the temple itself as we the believers are the Church; rather, it all boils down to authority. When Jesus leaves, he tells Peter that he is now the rock on which his Church stands, and what he says is almost a word for word reference to Isaiah, where the Kingdom of Heaven has a king (Jesus), but also someone who acts as a “prime minister” guided by the Holy Spirit. When Jesus gives Peter this order, He is establishing His Church and giving Peter the authority to lead the believers, this authority is passed down to the next pope, and the one after it. Actually, in Rome, there’s a piece of marble with EVERY single one of the pope’s starting with St. Peter. We are the only ones who can trace back that authority to the very beginning of the Catholic Church. Now, with this authority, comes the ability to interpret scripture guided by the Holy Spirit, the Church has the authority to tells us when we interpret something wrong and to establish the dogma. Historically, the Church has done it several times. Which is why after 2,000 years, the Catholic Church it is still what it is.

For Cameron to go from saying he still wasn't sure about the Office of the Papacy to saying "the evidence of the Papacy is true" without demonstrating the evidence is just silly. Of course, the ever-splintered RCC of bloggers n' such are fine with it because Cameron conceded on the Papacy. They are like "He's home", or rather "he is coming Home; Rome Sweet Rome".

      So you accepted the roman Catholic version of events and as a roman Catholic you can go beyond the scriptures for your beliefs! You accepted the intercessionof Mary , that is not found in scripture and you accept that you can pray to dead saints alive in heaven as well as Mary to convey your prayers to God by enriching them with their closeness to God , again not found in scripture. You can now believe that baptizing a baby will keep it from limbo , which as any reader of God's word the scriptures will tell you that is utter rubbish.
      This statement stands out

      Read God's word for yourself as you will find that Jesus died once and for all and ALL your sins are forgiven and oddly enough not only is purgatory not mentioned it is not even required as Jesus paid every penalty that is possible . The roman Catholic church does not teach that.

      So why should anyone "be Catholic"? What exactly does that mean? What would be a few important differences between Catholicism and biblical Christianity?

    • @sniperpronerfmods9811
      @sniperpronerfmods9811 2 года назад +2

      They say so what's the difference, what's the main difference between, like, the Catholic Church, and any of the other Protestant denominations or non-Catholic churches.
      Maybe it would be this, maybe it would be authority.
      And I know that's a bad word, many of us we don't like it, we're like, blah, authority!
      That doesn't sit right with me.
      What do you mean "authority"?
      I would say this
      That the Church has the ability to teach us.
      They teach authoritatively.
      The Church has the ability to teach us
      in the name of Jesus, in the power of the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father,
      that the Church has the ability to tell us, this is true, and this is not true;
      that the Church has the ability to establish doctrine.
      And I'm not talking about some invisible kind of like universal body of believers. I'm talking about
      the Church that Jesus himself founded back in Matthew chapter .
      Jesus looks at Simon and says, "Simon, your name is now Peter, 'rock'. And upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it."
      He goes on to say "I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven."
      Now, here's the interesting thing that you may or may not know.
      Jesus came to establish the kingdom, right?
      But it's not an invisible kingdom. Why?
      Because we can look at Jesus, as the king, establishes the kingdom, but when He says to Peter, you know, Simon, now Peter, he says "I give you the keys to the kingdom etc. etc."
      He's referencing Isaiah, the book of the Prophet Isaiah.
      And in Isaiah, there's this role, in the kingdom there's a role, there's the king obviously, but there's also the prime minister, the one who is the overseer.
      And when the king is gone, this person is in charge, this person has the authority of the king. It says that in Isaiah chapter .
      And it's almost word for word what Jesus gives to Peter. The keys to the kingdom of heaven.
      He gives the Church a visible structure, and an actual hierarchy.
      And he says you can actually teach now, teach in my name, the Holy Spirit will lead you to all truth to be able to teach in my name. And this is exactly what happens.
      In the Acts of the Apostles chapter , they're this big crisis, and the crisis is, the apostles had been evangelizing the Jews.
      So, basically they were all Jews.
      And they realised, Jesus is the fulfilment of Judaism, Jesus is the Messiah we were waiting for.
      So they're sharing the good news with Jewish people. It was awesome.
      But then they realised, because Peter had a vision, and Paul was called to do this too, that they were called to bring the Gospel to non-Jews.
      Which is amazing and good because I am a non-Jew, and I get to be brought in, right? To the people of God.
      The question came up.
      OK, so when you evangelize Jews all you need to get is baptized because, they're already circumcised.
      They're already in the Old Covenant.
      So in order to be brought into the fulfilment of the Covenant, the New Covenant, they just have to be baptised.
      But if you're evangelizing Gentiles, question, do they first have to be circumcised, and then be baptized?
      Or can they just be baptised? Now you can see at least two ways why this would be a very important question.
      One is if you were an adult Gentile man this would kind of be a big question he would want answered, 'do I have to do this? Or is this kinda optional?'
      You want that resolved ahead of time.
      But secondly, even more importantly, if I need to get circumcised in order to get baptised, and I'm not, that means I'm not saved.
      Like, "Do we have to do this in order to be saved?" is the big question.
      The problem is, Jesus never taught about that, and the Bible never teaches about this.
      And this is the problem, the problem with a thing called "Sola Scriptura'" or "Bible Alone".
      You know, one of the pillars of the Reformation was this idea that "Bible Alone" or "Scripture Alone" you don't need the church you only need "Bible Alone".
      What about when the Bible doesn't teach something? What do we do?
      Well, what happened was in Acts chapter the apostles came together and again I'm not saying some loose kind of invisible church, but the actual structure of the Church.
      Those apostles, the people that Jesus himself called, Peter as the pope, Paul and Barnabas, to have this body of the Church.
      And the Church gets together, and they discuss, and they debate, and they pray, and then they decided.
      They said, "it seems to the Holy Spirit, and to us, that we should not impose this on Gentiles, they do not have to be circumcised in order to be baptized."
      And, in that moment you can see in the Bible that the Church, again, the visible Church, the structure of the Church, governance of the Church has the ability to teach.

      And not just to teach, but to teach definitively, not merely optionally.
      And if you're a student of history, you see that this is not the only time, in fact the Church has to do this again and again and again,
      because people pick up the Old Testament and they pick up the New Testament Scriptures, which also the Church gave us. Another video by the way.
      And they say, "Well I've come to the conclusion that Jesus isn't really God ... I mean he's clearly God. I mean he came to earth, he rose from the dead, he's clearly God.
      I think he only looked like human." And that was a heresy called Docetism, in fact it was one of the earliest heresies,
      was that Jesus was fully God, but he wasn't fully man.
      In the Church, again not this generic, invisible Church, but the actual, physical, structure or hierachy of the Church said, "That's incorrect."
      Then other people came along and said, well he's fully human but maybe he's only partly God, like 'quasi' God like the Aryans.
      And the Church came together at the Council of Nicaea (325 A.D.) and they said, "No, Jesus is fully God, and fully man."
      Two natures, human and divine, in one divine person.
      Now, every Christian in the world believes that.
      Why?
      Because in some way, whether they admit it or not, every single Christian in the world believes that the Catholic Church has the authority to teach.
      Every Christian who believes in the Trinity, that God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, co-equal, co-eternal that no one is greater than the other
      believes that, because of the authority of the Catholic Church.
      Because the Church came together at the Council of Nicaea, the Council of Constantinople, and all the other Church Councils, and declared this.
      That this is the interpretation of the text.
      And we need that, here's the crazy thing, we need that so badly, OK, here's a little mental exercise.
      Imagine that you are God, for some of you this will not be the first time today that you did this. And it is so important to you,
      that the people you created know who you truly are, that they don't get you wrong.
      So what do you do? Well, you don't want to overwhelm them with your beauty and power and glory and truth
      because then they might have to serve you out of fear.
      You want them to fall in love with you, and you want them to know who you truly are.
      So you start small, you start with this guy named Abraham, or Abram, you know he changed his name to Abraham.
      You bring him slowly and slowly and then his family, you reveal yourself slowly to his family
      and then to his tribe, and then to his people, you call the Jewish people, the chosen people of God
      and you slowly reveal yourself to them and very carefully, because you don't want them to get any part of you wrong.
      And then in the fullness of time , years ago, you yourself actually become one of them. You become a human being.
      And in that, you reveal who you truly are, and you don't do it as the most powerful one, or as the greatest one, or as the richest one, you take the lowest place
      as a humble, poor person. And you die as a criminal. You let yourself be overwhelmed by suffering and death.
      Why? Because it's so important to you as God that people know the truth and depth of your heart.
      Then you rise from the dead, you send your Holy Spirit to the apostles and then they write down all these things.
      And, while they're writing these things down, you preserve it. Why? Because it's very important to you as God
      that they write down exactly what you want them to write down, and no more and no less.
      And then, over the course of years, as they're translating it, as they're copying it
      you, by your Holy Spirit you guide that copying, you guide that translating, so that they don't get you wrong. Why? Because it's very important to you as God
      that no one gets you wrong.
      Here's this infallible book, right? It's a book that has, it's without error.
      Now, it's not without scientific error, because it's not a scientific book, it's a book of poetry, it's a book of truth, it's a book of goodness.
      (There's a whole other video about that).
      The point is, you compile this infallible book through fallible people.
      But you compile this infallible book, now, if you were God, would it make any sense for you
      to then say, "OK" to anyone, "Here's this infallible book, boom, take it, read it, tell me what you think." No you wouldn't. Why?
      Because an infallible book, without an infallible interpreter, is a worthless book.
      Right? The Bible is infallible, but without an infallible interpreter
      it's like, that's why you have ,+ denominations of Christianity in the United States.
      Because, you know, someone picks it up and says, 'Oh, here's what I think.'
      someone else picks it up, 'no no no, here's what I think.'
      That's one of the reasons why G.K. Chesterton back in the day he had said, while he was Catholic, they said he said
      Because I don't need a church who can tell me when I'm right, I need a Church that will tell me where I'm wrong.
      So if you ask, you know what's the big difference between the Catholic Church and all the non-Catholic Christian denominations?'
      I'd say, when it comes down to it, I think what it comes down to is right there. Authority.

On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair. So too, all [the apostles] are shepherds, and the flock is shown to be one, fed by all the apostles in single-minded accord. If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he [should] desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?”- St. Cyprian of Carthage (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251]).

We also provide a cheaper health care service and education in the common sense (like math, science, etc) and the biblical sense ( religion and church beliefs)
      Also, almost every Catholics churches, especially the big ones have a homeless center that provides food, clothing, showers, laundry, bed, etc. to hundreds of people every week. They also provide a variety of programs to help their brothers and sisters in need get back on their feet. All of their efforts are completely funded by donations.
      In our Catholic faith, we learn that charity is a divinely infused virtue which lets us focus our will to cherish God above all things. God always multiply your blessings, when you give for his will and love, is probably why the church is so blessed.
      I don’t know why things happen to other people who are homeless and sick, or commit crime and other places with so many corruptions and their kids pay the prices which is so heartbroken.

      Show your husband this.👇🏽 Without Christ stamp of "authority" our brothers and sisters are adrift in no-mans land.
      From conception the Church was an OFFICIAL sect within Judaism. When you read Acts 1 and if you are familiar with Halakhah Law you will immediately notice that the Church is a legal entity WITHIN Judaism. There are 3 requirements which are met.
      Firstly, notice that there are 120 members in this synagogue. Why is this important? It is the exact number of persons in the Halakhah regulations to form a full fledged synagogue. The 120 is the Knesset HaGadolah which was supposed to be restored in the Olam Haba when Messiah comes. Judaism and Catholicism was born on Shavuot/Pentecost. To this day the Catholic Conclave has a maximum limit of 120 electors to elect the Pope.
      Secondly next according to Halakhah regulations there must be a "beit din" (Hebrew court) formed. We see that there is a beit-din and it draws lots and Matthias a disciple is chosen to take over Judas bishopric (episkopen). The first example of Apostolic Succession. So two of the three requirements are met.
      The third requirement is that there must be a NASI (prince/temporal) and an AB (father/spiritual) appointed. Curiously Peter is filling both these positions in this beit din. Why?
      In 190 BC the Kohan Gadol (jewish high-priest) fell into apostasy and bei-din gadol (Hebrew court) cast a vote of no confidence splitting the Kohan Gadol into two offices the "NASI" and the "AB" within the Beit Din Gadol.
      Fast forward to Matt16, in this new Beit Din Gadol (70 disciples) Christ has placed His confidence in Peter (the first AB/father/pope meaning papa) by presenting him the Keys to the temple/governance bringing the two offices back into one high priesthood the way it originally was.
      Rachi/Jewish sage writes a commentary on the priestly role of the steward/vizier and the Keys are the keys of the Temple and Authority. When the davidic kings were away the steward/vizier of the davidic kingdoms was in charge and he wore the keys the King gave him.
      The pope has both temporal and spiritual powers. Peter is the NASI prince of the apostles and the AB/pope (Pope meaning papa - meaning father) as you see even today the pope as Peters documented unbroken apostolic successor is both ‘nasi’ and the ‘ab’ in Catholicism.
      Christ appointed Peter as His steward with the keys as per Isaiah 22 vs 19-24 and Matt16. Peter/successors is First amongst equals. In the Davidic kingdoms there was always an al-bayith (steward/vizier), that is Peters role. Christ also renames Peter (the only Apostle renamed) as Abraham and Jacob were renamed by God in preparation for their specific role in salvation history.
      The Apostles knew exactly what had occurred when Jesus gave Peter the keys. Jesus presents the keys to Peter (Pope/ab) and appoints him/his successors as His royal steward to care for HIs flock until His return.
      Peter's successors (Popes) are first amongst equals ie the bishops. It's not a lording over them type of role. He figuratively sits in the Seat of Moses which we now call the Seat of Peter. Moses had the 70 elders who he consulted as equals.
      First book of Kings lists all the Kings and the royal steward/vizier is always listed next to the King because in the absence of the King he was in charge of the Kingdom. The steward would wear the keys around his neck so the citizens of the davidic kingdoms knew who he was. The steward is given the sash/robes/keys to the temple because the role is also a priestly role.
      Jesus created a Melchezidek priesthood (which pre-exists the Aaronic priesthood). This is why all Catholic priests belong to the order of Melchizedek, the fulfilment of the theophany of Melchizedek giving wine/bread to Father Abraham.
      Jesus, Son of David rebuilt the davidic kingdom as per 2SamCh7 - He is the King, Peter/successors/Popes are His royal stewards/viziers and the Hebrew court/beit-din is the Magesterium.
      Catholicism is not a new religion, it is the legitimate continuation of Temple Judaism (not Rabbinic Judaism). Catholics do not throw out what G-d has revealed prior and these continue to hold that all that is revealed is a single continuous revelation culminating in the Catholic Faith.

      @@livvyrae94 I think the answer will be different for every couple/person. Listing ideas helps me think this through. But it is not a list to be followed. Only suggestions for each person to make their way:
      1. I read the Bible everyday and journaled...especially verses that spoke to my situation...trusting in the Lord. I engaged the Lord through prayer, in my struggles with this.
      2. I believed then and now that the LOVE of GOD is not a formula that requires us to browbeat family into submission.
      3. God loves marriage and asks us to honor our spouses. Read 1Cor 7, esp. 10-24. In our best judgment, I believe God honors our walk in bringing His truths to our spouses. You are definitely being obedient! In the Protestant/Catholic "wars/debates" there are those who will disagree with me, but Paul says it better than I.
      4. I remembered my own 40 years of agnosticism/atheism. I remembered resenting a "heavy handed" presentation of the Gospel. I had to encounter Christ (immediately and unexpectedly) or I would probably have remained agnostic.
      5. I openly read Catholic literature, especially on the saints. There are many admirable Protestant saintly people, and it was easy to share with my husband (books/articles/movies) the lives of these good people along with Catholic saints in their love of and service to God.
      6. EWTN - I watched shows openly. I didn't force them on my husband and gave him his own TV time. But the presence of EWTN gave witness to the love and sanctity of the Catholic Church. (If RUclips, don't hide yourself in the closet.)
      7. Remember the first Christians who listened to Peter, Paul and the other apostles. I'm sure these converts struggled, too. It's tempting to feel alone when attending Mass without our spouse. But we can rest in the love of Christ. I'm not a priest, and I'm sure there are those who will encourage you.
      8. I was not afraid to tell my husband I looked forward to becoming Catholic. I was also willing to attend both Mass for myself and his own church's service. I refrained from Protestant communion and other practices inconsistent with our own Catholic sacraments.
      9. Most importantly, I believe, I never spoke against Protestantism or his church (led by a few ex-Catholics). ;) I reinforced my love for my husband and assured him that I honored his faith in Christ, even as it wasn't Catholic. I was open that I hoped one day he would feel that same comfort in seeing me as a Catholic. But I didn't press the point or push. (See #4) Love wins the day. :)
      God bless your journey! I will be interested in suggestions from others if they offer them here.

    1. You’re glasses are the bomb 👌🏼👌🏼
    2. I’m a convert. I cannot tell you how difficult it was for me to finally take the leap of faith and join. I studied for 7 years. I went through RCIA 3 times and pulled out right before committing. My family is anti Catholicism and I knew I would be hurting them. I finally decided I needed to follow the Truth no matter the consequences. I cried. I was somewhat embarrassed - which I shouldn’t have been, however I knew what people would think of me. What I used to think of Catholics. I have found so much peace being Catholic. I have a community. We all don’t sit and debate doctrine, but instead we celebrate and learn it together. I still have some difficulties with some things, but I trust that it is my imperfect nature and thousands upon thousands of theologians before me know more than I.
    I can trust them, and trust Gods word.
    I’m more at peace now than ever. But it took a long time, even after coming into the church. I’ll pray for you Cameron! It’s not an easy journey, but it’s worth it. It’s the Narrow path.

    This is such big news. I re-verted to Catholicism, after having been a member of the protestant church for a number of years. The Catholic church is 100% the true church, or should I say, it is the fullness of Christ in this world. I've met some truly Godly protestants, but there is some big pieces missing from that doctrine. I know this logically but most importantly, I know it spiritually. I still visit a protestant church from time to time, just to meet up with my friends but when I do, I feel this sense of emptiness, like its just not right, it just doesnt work. And then literally on the same day, I'll go to the catholic church and instantly, the second I walk in the door, I feel the presence of God, and my spirit is lifted, I feel that fullness, that holiness. This is how I know the catholic church is the one true church in this world.

I remember going to lunch after church one day (still very much evangelical) and wondering how to broach the subject of looking at a different option for church. Turns out she was thinking the same thing. After a brief detour through an Episcopal parish, we were received in the Church just over 3 years after we were married. To the chagrin if our families, of course. 😅 I’m still amazed at how powerfully the Spirit was moving in our hearts at the same time.

On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair. So too, all [the apostles] are shepherds, and the flock is shown to be one, fed by all the apostles in single-minded accord. If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he [should] desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?” (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251]).

I remember the day I realized I longed for Confession, and... well, I can only say I am so, so thankful to regularly frequent the sacrament now. I don't know if I can think of any more vulnerable moment, or any greater swell of gratitude than when confessing what I'm genuinely ashamed of, and receiving absolution I could never deserve but absolutely need. Except for maybe Communion (and I suppose Baptism), Confession is _the_ Christian moment. Humility, repentance, submission, mercy, gratitude, reconciliation. It's all right there. God bless you, brother :) It's all waiting for you now

      I would respectfully disagree and argue that that's a great overstatement of the importance of this. In the RUclips world of Christian apologetics, it's a major splash, but in the larger scheme of relations between Catholics and Protestants, it's not even a blip on the radar. I agree that protestants and catholics could use an increase in substantive, charitable discourse ... but this event, while interesting in its realm, doesn't have the weight or relevance to move the needle in the grand scheme of things.

      @@1991jj I agree it's a big deal, I just think the realm in which it has much import isn't a huge swath in the larger picture of Protestant-Catholic relations ("overall"). That doesn't mean it can't be meaningful in a certain demographic. Someone like Bishop Robert Barron, I think, over time, is more likely to sustain a bigger impact b/c of his interaction on social and cultural issues with which many non-Catholics are of like or similar mind. I'm a protestant myself, but I've been keeping up with Barron a good bit for several years.
      I also think the high profile of Cameron's conversion may not carry on all that long if he does what he says he's planning to, which is to continue his channel with a "mere Christianity" kind of approach, in which case it won't have a Catholic focus. I could be wrong, or, he could change his mind or pursue it in a more nuanced way. In any event, it is a big deal, I don't want to minimize it! Cheers!

    What is so sad is that despite having so many reasons to rejoice as a Catholic because of Cameron's conversion (and what it means for the potential ripple effect in the world of lay Christian philosophy), in Rome on the same day there is a group of German bishops meeting with the Pope, a significant majority of whom would like to essentially dismantle the magisterium, the priesthood, Christian sexual ethics, etc. and turn the German Catholic church into another Nationalkirche, some of whom have already started implementing these ideas in their own dioceses.

      Jesus said his Church would be “the light of the world.” He then noted that “a city set on a hill cannot be hid” (Matt. 5:14). This means his Church is a visible organization. It must have characteristics that clearly identify it and that distinguish it from other churches. Jesus promised, “I will build my Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it” (Matt. 16:18). This means that his Church will never be destroyed and will never fall away from him. His Church will survive until his return.
      Among the Christian churches, only the Catholic Church has existed since the time of Jesus. Every other Christian church is an offshoot of the Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox churches broke away from unity with the pope in 1054. The Protestant churches were established during the Reformation, which began in 1517.
      There is ample evidence in the New Testament that Peter was first in authority among the apostles. Whenever they were named, Peter headed the list (Matt. 10:1-4, Mark 3:16-19, Luke 6:14-16, Acts 1:13); sometimes the apostles were referred to as “Peter and those who were with him” (Luke 9:32). Peter was the one who generally spoke for the apostles (Matt. 18:21, Mark 8:29, Luke 12:41, John 6:68-69), and he figured in many of the most dramatic scenes (Matt. 14:28-32, 17:24-27; Mark 10:23-28). On Pentecost it was Peter who first preached to the crowds (Acts 2:14-40), and he worked the first healing in the Church age (Acts 3:6-7).
      It is Peter’s faith that will strengthen his brethren (Luke 22:32) and Peter is given Christ’s flock to shepherd (John 21:17). An angel was sent to announce the resurrection to Peter (Mark 16:7), and the risen Christ appeared first to Peter (Luke 24:34). He headed the meeting that elected Matthias to replace Judas (Acts 1:13-26), and he received the first converts (Acts 2:41). He inflicted the first punishment (Acts 5:1-11) and excommunicated the first heretic (Acts 8:18-23). He led the first council in Jerusalem (Acts 15) and announced the first dogmatic decision (Acts 15:7-11). It was to Peter that the revelation came that Gentiles were to be baptized and accepted as Christians (Acts 10:46-48).
      Peter’s preeminent position among the apostles was symbolized at the very beginning of his relationship with Christ. At their first meeting, Christ told Simon that his name would thereafter be Peter, which translates as “Rock” (John 1:42). The startling thing was that-aside from the single time that Abraham is called a “rock” (Hebrew: Tsur; Aramaic: Kepha).
      When he first saw Simon, “Jesus looked at him, and said, ‘So you are Simon the son of John? You shall be called Cephas (which means Peter)’” (John 1:42). The word Cephas is merely the transliteration of the Aramaic Kepha into Greek. Later, after Peter and the other disciples had been with Christ for some time, they went to Caesarea Philippi, where Peter made his profession of faith: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God” (Matt. 16:16). Jesus told him that this truth was specially revealed to him, and then he solemnly reiterated: “And I tell you, you are Peter” (Matt. 16:18). To this was added the promise that the Church would be founded, in some way, on Peter (Matt. 16:18).
      Then two important things were told the apostle. “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matt. 16:19). Here Peter was singled out for the authority that provides for the forgiveness of sins and the making of disciplinary rules. Later the apostles as a whole would be given similar power [Matt.18:18], but here Peter received it in a special sense.
      Peter alone was promised something else also: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 16:19). In ancient times, keys were the hallmark of authority. A walled city might have one great gate; and that gate had one great lock, worked by one great key. To be given the key to the city-an honor that exists even today, though its import is lost-meant to be given free access to and authority over the city. The city to which Peter was given the keys was the heavenly city itself. This symbolism for authority is used elsewhere in the Bible (Isa. 22:22, Rev. 1:18).
      “The Lord says to Peter: ‘I say to you,’ he says, ‘that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.’ . . . On him [Peter] he builds the Church, and to him he gives the command to feed the sheep [John 21:17], and although he assigns a like power to all the apostles, yet he founded a single chair [cathedra], and he established by his own authority a source and an intrinsic reason for that unity. Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was [i.e., apostles], but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is but one Church and one chair. So too, all [the apostles] are shepherds, and the flock is shown to be one, fed by all the apostles in single-minded accord. If someone does not hold fast to this unity of Peter, can he imagine that he still holds the faith? If he [should] desert the chair of Peter upon whom the Church was built, can he still be confident that he is in the Church?”- St. Cyprian of Carthage (The Unity of the Catholic Church 4; 1st edition [A.D. 251]).
      Early Church historian J. N. D. Kelly, a Protestant, writes: “As regards ‘Catholic,’ its original meaning was ‘universal’ or ‘general.’ . . . in the latter half of the second century at latest, we find it conveying the suggestion that the Catholic is the true Church as distinct from heretical congregations (cf., e.g., Muratorian Canon). . . . What these early Fathers were envisaging was almost always the empirical, visible society; they had little or no inkling of the distinction which was later to become important between a visible and an invisible Church” (Early Christian Doctrines, 190-1).
      “There are many other things which most properly can keep me in her [the Catholic Church’s] bosom. The unanimity of peoples and nations keeps me here. Her authority, inaugurated in miracles, nourished by hope, augmented by love, and confirmed by her age, keeps me here. The succession of priests, from the very see of the apostle Peter, to whom the Lord, after his resurrection, gave the charge of feeding his sheep [John 21:15-17], up to the present episcopate, keeps me here. And last, the very name Catholic, which, not without reason, belongs to this Church alone, in the face of so many heretics, so much so that, although all heretics want to be called ‘Catholic,’ when a stranger inquires where the Catholic Church meets, none of the heretics would dare to point out his own basilica or house”- St. Augustine of Hippo (Against the Letter of Mani Called “The Foundation” 4:5 [A.D. 397]).

I was raised without religion and I was an agnostic , then I found Christ ( I didn’t know the difference between Catholics and Protestants) and went to different churches, started reading CS Lewis as well writings of the Saints, went to some Charismatic Churches including Charismatic Catholic meetings.

    Aww, Cameron! So excited for you! As a cradle Catholic, I have learned so much about Protestantism from you. It has helped me grow in my own Catholic faith. My prayers will be for you and your family during this adjustment period. Sending you peace and blessings on your journey!

    I thank God that i got the opportunity to get baptized under the Roman Catholic church.. I almost got baptized under an evangelical protestant church but i never understood why i never decided to do it, then i discovered catholicism, took the classes of catechism, found love inside the catholic church and got baptized there at 16 years old.

    Matt your glasses look great! Well done Cameron! I'm so looking forward to following your journey. I truly loved your incredible honesty and your charitable approach to all your supporters who may be Protestant and not on the same path as you. I hope they are kind and generous to you too. May God Bless you and hold you and your family close 🙏 Welcome home brother!

    It's really exciting to hear Cameron talk about coming into the Church! I am new to his studies and will be following now! Just take one step at a time... you have the rest of your life to learn & to appreciate the fullness of the faith! I don't think many converts (except for maybe Scott Hahn) know all about everything at Easter Vigil! God Bless you on your journey, Cameron, and thank you Matt for having him on in ROME!

    Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee, Blessed art thou amongst woman and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus, Holy Mary mother of God, Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen

    I just loved the Hail Mary at the end, and seeing Cameron learning it - I am not Catholic either, but also exploring it, so I could so relate to his baby step, with Matt’s help. And loved the beautifully worded prayer by the priest at the end too 🙏

    I was in RCIA last year and joined the church. Seeing others join RCIA brings me joy! This interview is delightful 😊

    So happy for Cameroon. I listen to his podcast off and on and love the contents that he gives. A cradle Catholic here and a very warm welcome home. Also look at Matt's face 😊. All written he is just so happy for Cameroon. True friend indeed

    Went to your channel and just subscribed Cameron after hearing your conversion story. Praise be to God for people like you who share your findings, process and discernment and not sugar coat how hard it can be. I watched The Chosen and there is a scene where Nicodemus believes in Jesus as the Messiah and wants so badly to follow but because of his status ends up not going m. The actor Erick Avari does such an excellent job showing that heart break of a person not willing to leave their life behind. Praying for you and your ministry. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    Praise God and welcome home Cameron. Your openness to the Truth led you to the true catholic faith. ‘You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Pax tibi

    So beautiful. When the priest laid over his hands and prayed, I got teared eyes and goosebumps. God is always present. He prepares people with greatness to follow him. I am amazed.

    I’ve heard of theological, intellectual, and philosophical conversions to Catholicism but the “Bertuzzi Analysis “ is by far the most amazing and complete. God bless

  • @kateharvey8524
    @kateharvey8524 2 года назад +5

    That was the most beautiful ending, a first-ever Hail Mary and the laying on of hands and blessing by the priest. I am a convert too, and your story brought back so many feelings and memories of my own tender, joyful conversion. Praise God for bringing you into His Church!

    • @kateharvey8524

      Also, there are sooo many good books you could read during this time of conversion…but one in particular I loved is Peter Kreeft’s 40 Reasons I Am a Catholic. (Can’t go wrong with anything he’s written actually.)

    As a Catholic, Cameron really helped me understand nuances of other faiths, and how other faiths have much good. But as a witness to Camerons channel, i can say that Cameron left no stone unturned and listened to the considerations of some great thinkers from all faiths.
