But he didn't say unlawful..thats only in a couple of the Catholic approved bibles. Every other bible including some Catholic approved bibles says, except for fornication (or a variant) The Greek says "porneia". That being said Im not saying it is an exception.
Utter papist propaganda that shifts blame from poorly catechized and selfish bishops and priests onto the big name Protestants swing around.. and honestly kinda effective, keep posting
What novel idea is your pope claiming all religions are path to God. Good job. Educate your pope too before buying your way to heaven with money or pray to your saints.
All religions are paths in a certain sense, but that sense is very limited - and not guaranteed. No man who knows the truth can lawfully follow non-truth, and the false religions of the heathens and the schismatic sects of the Protestants are not the fullness of truth. Yet there is one door of salvation it is Christ; if an unbaptized pagan were to know the Lord only implicitly it might suffice for salvation by baptism of desire, but it would be foolhardy to rely upon this or treat it as certitude.
The emphasis on, or distortion of faith to the exclusion of love has inadvertently made the protestant branch of Christianity produce some of the most heinous cults known to man. Classical protestantism used to be a liberating movement due to the rise of the printing press allowing for the facilitation of literacy rates. But in the modern era, it has devolved to "whoever is literate enough to read the bible has authority to start his own infallible teaching tradition" hence the dozen of sects flowing from the branch.
Ever since the satanic cult of sola scriptura a man made tradition invented by a devil possessed man was introduced five hundred years ago many idiots like Calvin, Smythe, Zwingli, Henry, Ellen, Knox, Wesley, Russell etc started to interpret the Bible on their own wild imagination and even adding their wishful thinking or twisting historical facts or even tried to manipulate the holy Bible itself in order to make their satanic theology fit into it and this madness went on and on and on and on and on and after five centuries by now about fifty thousand heretic idiots like McArthur, Benny, Copeland, Crepo, Osteen, Todd, Hagee, Ortlund, Mike, Tiff, Wilson etc are doing all sorts of nonsense and all are contradicting each other all the time bringing chaotic anarchism into Christianity.
Private discernment also plagued Calvin's French Confession in par. 4, WCF in par. 5 and the 1689 LBCF par. 5. Whether Protestants trace back to Luther or Calvin, "all roads lead to Rome" and I wish they'd see it.
Calvinism is especially inconsistent in the lengths it goes to deny synergy with God. The only way to make Calvinism work soteriologically is with what is called hypergrace easy-believism faith alone. If one acts in the belief that one's salvation is "evidenced by" or "will result" in works and fruits then one is trusting in one's own works. Holding this belief is an epistemological contradiction to the belief that only God solely causes our salvation.
@@asurrealistworld4412 Yeah, I wish they'd see that too. I can't tell you how many "pastors" of mine, or my wife, dance around the passages like Hebrews 6 or Hebrews 10 that assert /Christian/ apostasy. They just say "well they didn't really believe." For folks so emphatic on exegesis, it's scary and sad how they blatantly ignore their own eisegesis.
I attend Orthodox divine liturgues. I have had direct spiritual experience of flesh becoming one many years before I even read it in the bible. I agree with you Catholics on this one and I have suffered for this experience. But its all so complicated because so much religion falls down to trust me bro and we all know the devil is a lier and religion being run by humans is not incorruptible even your pope and thats the problem.
@@CatechesisVids also its interesting marriage rules are far more strict on the married Orthodox clergy than on the laity which I find quite peculiar to be honest. I think on this particular theological point yes the Catholic Church is right because I can draw on my own spiritual experience but than people have to trust me with my spiritual experience.

Great video, brother. I would really appreciate a video detailing the initial faith and justification. It seems from certain Scriptures that the moment one hears the Gospel-the power of God for salvation-and believes, he is justified (Romans 4:5, 10:9-10). However, we know that baptism is the instrumental cause of salvation (Rom 6:1-7). It would be great to hear more about how that initial grace (faith) in hearing the Gospel is the beginning of justification as a sinner is being prepared for conversion in Holy Baptism. Thank you
That Interpretation and translation of Matthew 5 and 19 "unless the marriage is unlawful" is quite new to me. Honestly im not even sure if thats a very realistic representation of the text. The douay rheims and the german "aliolli bible" give "fornication" as the translation of that passage. The commentaries (aliolli for the german and the Haydock commentary for the english) interpret this passage to be about spouses being permitted to live in seperate homes if one has fornicated, not allowing either party to remarry. For context the german commentary alludes to 1. Corinthians 7:11 "-and if she does separate she must either remain single or become reconciled to her husband..." What is the source/justification for retranslating this passage in this way? Just for clarification, i dont think this is a big issue. Im just curious.
I think what you're asking is do Catholics believe in the common priesthood of all believers, to which the answer is yes - though we distinguish it from the priesthood of ordination. The Catechism says: 783 Jesus Christ is the one whom the Father anointed with the Holy Spirit and established as priest, prophet, and king. The whole People of God participates in these three offices of Christ and bears the responsibilities for mission and service that flow from them. 784 On entering the People of God through faith and Baptism, one receives a share in this people's unique, priestly vocation: "Christ the Lord, high priest taken from among men, has made this new people 'a kingdom of priests to God, his Father.' The baptized, by regeneration and the anointing of the Holy Spirit, are consecrated to be a spiritual house and a holy priesthood."
