The Difference Between Roman Catholicism And Christianity: Voddie Baucham 

Voddie is my new favorite pastor. He’s not afraid to speak the truth from the word of God 10/10

There is only one true Gospel, it is simple to understand and to receive. It is free there is nothing you can do to buy it or work toward. It is a free gift from God through your faith in him. Faith alone offers you salvation through the grace of God alone. It is free to receive but it will cost you everything to pick up your cross and follow Christ. God bless you in your walk with Jesus.

I have viewed only a few of Mr. Beacham's video's, and I am THANKFUL, so very thankful I did. God bless you and yours!

Voddie is the best. He is awesome.

Very good sermon and absolutely spot on!!!

I am really looking forward to Voddie’s sermon called “The difference between Calvinism and Christianity”. ☦️🙏🏼😇

Could someone explain the verse about how fath without works is dead? I dont believe we ourselves earn our salvation, but it seems as though there's something expected of us beyond just accepting verbally, and i dont think that distinction is made very clear often enough.

When you repent grâce is not enough you have tout improve yourself otherwise you are a hypocrite because improving is works. Jesus says what you haven't done you haven't done it to me what you have done to the smallest you have done to me. those are works.

Man, did Martin Luther do a number on Christians! But so did the Catholics at the Great Schizm.

Sorry, but Bible (particularly: Epistle of James) says that "faith without deeds/works is dead". And Protestants' favorite quote: "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." - Ephesians 2:8-9 In the very nest verse says: ""For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." - Ephesians 2:10 Works are still a "part of the equation" and should not be taken out of it.

"But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also." - James 2:20-26

Most of you aren't very enlightened

As always, Catholic-hating protestant pastors misrepresenting and misinterpreting the teachings of the Catholic Church. They have thousands of scholars to draw from, even the Catechism itself, explaining in detail what's our doctrine on Grace and Faith, but they'd rather quote directly from a 500 yo document knowing most of the listeners won't understand a pip. Catholics believe in collaboration of our actions with God's grace, like a boat that has to point its sails to the right direction to be moved by the "grace" of the wind, like a toddler learning to walk, who can only walk with the help of their father, but still has to move their legs. In the end all is God's grace, but Our Lord wouldn't create automatons who have absolutely no sovereignty over their actions, like most Calvinist believe. It'd make it impossible to actually prove our love for Him, because without freedom there can be no proof of love. Our creation would be pointless.

Acts 2:38 ya’ll…”Peter said to them, Repent, and each of you be baptized for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” All require faith…repentance, baptism and receiving the Holy Spirit..after which continued faith and obedience is paramount. God requires you to make the 1st step and he will follow thru with grace. When we act on our own genuine volition noticed by him then, he extends grace. Amen.

So, if Catholics aren't Christians, who was a Christian any time between 325 and 1517?

Why is it that Jesus said you can believe in me and be saved, yet this 'false teacher' teaches that you have no say in being 'born again'. I used to think that way until someone pointed out to me that an unborn child is the one to decide he will be born! The mother, unless there are medical complications, does not decide when she will bring her child into the world, the baby does! He obviously doesn't have the words to explain why, but he definitely has a say as to when he will be born when everything is healthy and normal. Why, oh why, could it not be the same with the born again experience? Perhaps this is what the Lord meant when He said," the spirit moves and nobody knows where it comes from or where it goes!" A person for who the Holy Spirit moves, can, from his own heart and conscience, realize he is lost, drowning, dying in his own sin, reach out to God and ask to be saved!? John 1 is full of admonition to BELIEVE ON HIM who God sent and be saved! These reformers are wacked and turning the simple, yet powerful Gospel, into a pretzel. Why would the Lord say, "unless you become like little children,You CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF GOD". Try explaining the silly TULIP nonsense to a kid and see what happens.

Which is why I don’t understand Catholics are called Christian-

We don't condem anyone but this teaching of your may God rebeak the evil spirit in you

There isn't a difference. Roman Catholicism IS Christianity, just as protestantism is too.

Not much difference between Calvinism and Catholicism in the end, assurance that your elect can only come from works… no way you can be sure that God has elected you , if we are totally dead how can we know if God has truly made us alive, only by works..there is no assurance of salvation in Calvinism or Catholicism

So once we are saved, we don’t need to love or fear God anymore. So we allow Him to suffer even more for our salvation as we feel we can continue to commit every vile grave sin known to man and still go to heaven. In other words, we can continue to crucify Jesus more than would be necessary for our salvation knowing that we are saved no matter what. It is contemptuous of us on our part to escalate our sinning since He will pay the price anyway. This is a vile, demonic doctrine that some Protestants teach. It shows no care or love for the suffering servant(Jesus.) This illogicality is straight out the satan’s mouth.

Steve Lawson also great although i think he might cling to ridiculous premillennialism
