I have been a staunch anti-Catholic Protestant for years, until recently. I have been studying intently, with an open mind, devouring books, articles, RU-vid videos, etc. and one by one my objections have fallen. I believe I am becoming Catholic and I believe I was wrong, so so wrong, all those years I misunderstood the Church that Christ founded. I have been in contact with my local priest, who is a very good man, and I am continuing to learn, and excited about this new journey. My wife is open minded and supportive as well. Prayers would be appreciated for our family, as we are having some difficulty with our teenage daughter. Thank you and God bless : )

Even as a "cradle" Catholic I went through a similar journey in my 30s, devouring books, hearing lectures, RU-vid and reading the entire Bible from beginning to end. Slowly my eyes started widening. I feel like the times I went to Mass before, I wasn't truly present or fully appreciating what was in front of me. Thank God I woke up. That drive to understand our faith, that which has pulled us, is what many people call Jesus leading us to his church. I went from Luke warm to devout Christian practicing Catholic. I went from being self conscious of my faith to wanting to openly show everyone my faith. When you know what you know, it's nearly impossible to turn back. I hope you are well in your way home my friend, and don't let anyone stop you. ❤️

Redeemed Sinner “Ignorance of scripture is ignorance of Christ” - St. Jerome As a faithful Catholic Christian myself and self-proclaimed apologist and spiritual director, I read the scriptures for myself all the time. I enjoy the homilies at Mass as well, but the point is, yes we read the Bible for ourselves and study it, however, remember Acts 8:31 where a eunuch asks for help reading and understanding the Scriptures from Philip. We need the Church to guide us. Back in the early Church times, people didn’t have access to all the scriptures. Some people only had a letter or two from Saint Paul, and maybe one gospel, and people couldn’t even read, so it’s the priests and the bishops who would teach the faithful through their words and preaching. Thankfully today we can all read the scriptures for ourselves, but we still have the Church and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, etc. as a guide for us to understand what we are reading as in Acts 8:31. I love you and God loves you so much more🙏🏼

I love how protestants always say "is it in the bible?" If they read only the bible literally then they would think Peter is Satan because Jesus said to Peter, " Get behind me Satan."

Hi Keith! I really admire the love you show for our Catholic faith. As a cradle Catholic, like many of us, I knew very little about my faith. I began attending protestant services about 6 years ago and the more I listened to their interpretation of the Bible I began to question their preaching. That's when I began to read and listen to Catholic programs and Protestant conversion stories, such as Scott Hann's story and other's. I have learned so much about my faith that the more I read the more I fall in love with Catholicism. If Protestants would only put their pride and arrogance aside and read these conversion stories and do their own research, they would know the truth. Let's all pray for them, that our Lord open their hearts and minds and use us Catholics as tools for their conversion. Always setting a good example of sanctity in our lives. God bless you Keith and keep up the good work!! I always pray for you and your family!

To be deep into history is to cease to be protestant. Many protestant pigeons hole themselves to the Bible alone and not study the church fathers. It was the Catholic Church 400 years after Christ through St Jerome and councils that determined the Canons of Scripture. It was a tradition that guided the early church and by those writings looked Catholic.

Love your Chanel! My daughter was raised Catholic. When she went to college all her friends she met were not Catholic and talked very mean about Catholics. She had never experienced this before. She became afraid to say she was Catholic and started attending many different churches with her friends. Many times in the sermons they would say disparaging things about Catholics. She was upset and feeling like this all must be true. Anyway, thank goodness she has come full circle and is embracing being Catholic, but she wishes she new what to say when attacked. The last thing she told me was her friend told her it’s a satanic cult and her preacher told her that!! Good grief!! Shes 22 and I’m glad she has at least found one friend to go to Mass with! I told her never ever in my 56 years have I ever heard a priest in Mass say anything negative about another denomination. It’s crazy!!!

Totally with you on this, Keith! I understand your frustration really well. My best friend who is a Protestant. He tried to introduce me to develop a personal relationship with Jesus and persuade me to read the Bible (so that I would eventually leave Catholocism). Little did he know that I know my faith well. He then asked me to speak with his father who as a Protestabt Pastor, but an Ex-Catholic who abounded Catholicism when he was around age 30 & left home after breaking all idols at his home. I am now talking to his father to try to show him and his family the fullness of the truth. Please keep them in your prayers. My friend though is very reluctant to read any books i give. For example (Fathers Know Best by Jimmy Akin). He says why should he read what my 1st generation Catholics belived when what aposteles and Jesus practised is already mentioned in the Bible. Luckily, his father is willing to read books. So i have now send over many good books to ready including your book (1st year in the church). God bless!

But I find myself praying for them more often these days no matter how much they insult and hurt me. I am Catholic and I read and study the bible regularly. I have an intimate relationship with Christ because I receive HIM in the Eucharist which if understood correctly is the most amazing experience and fills me with so much love and gratitude for God. I'm deeply in love with Christ and honour Our Blessed Mother because Christ honours Her. Been Catholic is not just a religion but it's the way I live my life. And it's the one thing I'm most grateful to God for because the sacraments lead me closer and closer to Christ and helps me fall deeper in love with my adorable Jesus and my fellow man....and ultimately it will lead me to heaven.

As a former protestant of nearly 50 years ( from childhood ) and now a Catholic as of 3.31.2018, I've heard, seen, been the victim of so much hate filled words ( mostly online ) from professing Christians which is really sad. I was raised strict PENTECOSTAL and lots of stuff would send you to hell, but I never heard being a Catholic would send you to hell until I begin diving more into the Catholic faith which began in 2016. That didn't sway me from becoming Catholic. You say a lot of great things. If you keep your eyes on Christ and love him like you are saying living your Catholic faith, you can turn a deaf ear to those that condemn you to hell for being Catholic. No human has the authority to pass final judgment. Those condemning Catholics to hell shows their ignorance of the Catholic faith. Yes, we are saved by Grace from God's Mercy through faith in Christ which none of us deserve but as Catholics we believe we have to cooperate with God's Grace. There are a lot of religious nuts online who don't know how to be loving. They simply spew hate filled words in the name of love and try to justify it using select scriptures. Hold your head high, keep loving Jesus and live the Catholic life. Peace be with you.

In 2004, halfway through these years surrounded by these ppl, my brother committed sui***e. I was quiet all week, I did not talk to anyone for a week. When they found out, my boss and the bookkeeper cornered me shaking their fingers in my face, talking about sui***e and my brother. They were telling me only the catholic church teaches that sui***e is a sin, and not to listen to that crap I was raised with. I wanted to crawl in a hole, I don't know how people could be so insensitive, but it was all about scoring points again bashing Catholics and the church, who cares if I'm crying all week inside missing my brother. Never let a tragedy go to waste, they were using the same playbook as Leftists, but I doubt they realized this. One of these people who was a teenage girl at work, ran me down at the grocery store (I was trying to avoid being seen) this month 20 years after working there. She talked to me for more than half hour. She asked what I had in pen written on my hand. After we talked, I told her, I thought you hated me, the rest of the crew too hated me too, because you found out what church I go to. Ephesians chapter 5 , and Corinthians chapter 6 is what I had written on my hand, that's what was in my heart from the day I was born, and would not waiver and give into temptations, is clearly written in the bible. May not be popular in this day and age, but I can go back and read the inspired word of God and know I've been on the right path all along. I don't need to go out and put up Wilt Chamberlain numbers (off the basketball court), and then get "born-again". That always seemed disingenuous to me, as everyone I've ever talked to knew exactly what they were doing, referring to the first half of their lives, and had no regrets about it. In certain times at work when the right people were around, many Christians would tell hedonistic **x stories from their past (clearly no regret in what they are saying), before they supposedly became saved. To me this has always been an indicator of what kind of person I'm dealing with, and I care less about what church they attend. I've been told by a variety of people something similar, one put it in specific terms, that you wouldn't find 80 people out of a stadium of 80,000 people living according to God's law as described in Corinthians 6 or Ephesians 5. That's not less than 1 % , that's less than .1 % . Maybe before I'm dead our society will change for the better.......regardless of what church they go to. One can hope. But I think it was Red that said to Andy, hope is a dangerous thing in a place like this. Maybe that's why a person gets told they were born 100 years too late, just for trying to live by God's standards, but His standards are the best I've read

Awesome video. As a cradle Catholic who for the past 40 years has loved studying the Bible and eschatology back in the day I had to study with every Protestant group I could find because Catholics didn't talk about those things. Don't you know you can't be Catholic and be Christian? I was told that on a post as recently as a month ago. I love the Whore of Babylon subject. I have heard different Protestants describe it with Bible passages to prove it as any one of the following: 1) The Catholic Church 2) The United States 3) Jerusalem 4) Mecca 5) Revived Islamic Caliphate 6) European Economic Union Having attended Protestant worship services in many different denominations I can honestly say you will find more scripture throughout the Catholic Mass than in any of them. Here is the response I gave just yesterday to a video saying that Catholicism was a pseudo Christian cult. Please feel free to plagiarize me at will: As Catholics, we believe that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation. Contrary to what many Protestants believe Catholicism is not a works-based religion and never had been, true Catholicism is all about a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I have personally never known a single ex-Catholic who really knew and understood their Catholic faith before leaving Catholicism and becoming Protestant. All the doctrines of the Catholic faith listed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, are freely available online with the scripture references that support them, they are all Scripturally based. We can disagree on the scriptural interpretation of them but they are scripturally supported. I would like you to consider some verifiably facts though, the Mass can historically be verified to go back to the early church fathers and the Apostles. The doctrine of Sola Scriptura did not exist in Christianity prior to Martin Luther creating it. If the Holy Spirit is all that is needed for interpretation, there should be one Protestant church and the Catholic (and Orthodox and Coptic Churches who are essentially theologically the same). That's not what we see though, there are thousands of Protestant denominations covering a range theologically from Episcopal and Lutheran to Pentecostal and non-denominational. Which Protestant interpretation is the Holy Spirit guiding as many oppose each other? The New Testament is a Catholic book. The Canon of the New Testament was defined by the council's of I and II Carthage and the council of Hippo. Twenty Seven books out of an extant list of about 90 at the time. It was Martin Luther who changed the OT Canon and tried to remove Timothy and Revelation from the NT. Many Catholics, laity, priests, bishops, and Cardinals oppose some of the things Pope Francis teaches precisely because it is departing from historic Christianity. The most important reason I am Catholic is from the mouth of Jesus: Matt. 12:24-28 24 (D)Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons.” 25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges. 28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you. It is a matter of documented fact that the satanic black mass is designed to be a polar opposite of and desecration of the Catholic Mass. Ex-satanists and witches have admitted to stealing the blessed Eucharist for desecration and use in their unholy rites, the same with Rosaries and Crucifixes. The prayers of the church do in fact drive out Satan and his demons. By Jesus own words, this power cannot come from Satan, therefore it must come from God. If the Catholic Church is not from God, why is Satan so obsessed with attacking it and treating it down. Shouldn't he be the one building it up if it is from him? Are there misinformed and diluted Catholics who will end up in hell, sure. Are there diluted and misinformed Protestants who will end up in hell, sure. It's always about a personal relationship with Jesus. It's a matter of the heart, it's about loving God, that's what true Catholicism is really about.

I have been Catholic my whole life. I am 37 years old. I am very sure a lot of Catholics leave the church due to ignorance. They do not know their own faith. For my own experience I was a Catholic only by title but once I read a couple of books about the purgatory, exorcisms, and how it is scientifically proven that the body and blood of Christ is in the Eucharist then my faith and curiosity grew. It made me happy to know why I am a Catholic. I recommend you to watch on RU-vid Carlo Acutis, he created a website narrating miracles about the Eucharist around the world. Finally, if you want to go back home once for all please start praying the Rosary 📿. Oh Blessed Mother Virgin Mary pray for us Sinners. Our Blessed Mother is the fastest and easiest way to get closer to Jesus. The four lethal weapons we Catholics have against our battle with the devil are: the Eucharist, the adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, the Confession and the Rosary. 🙏😊 I hope you come back home soon.

Hey Keith You're awesome Today is the feast of St. Augustine Doctor of the Church Doctor of Grace Your posting today is perfect timing Most if not all of Non practicing Catholics or others 'protesting' the Bride of Christ are all the same with their arguments. They have too much pride and will never humble themselves in adoration to the One True God and actually confess their sins to Jesus (through the priests) and feel contrition for their sins. They are all their own Popes and rationalize accordingly. We all need to submit and if you don't want to you are in trouble and need true discernment. We need to pray and fast fir all. It's great to be Catholic BUT it's a great responsibility to humble yourself to AUTHORITY which was put there by Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

Rolando Velásquez like everything else, these quotes are taken out of context. None of them are specifically talking about Mary. You also switched words quoting St. Augustine as saying that Jesus was “born” without sin then you switched it to “conceived”. This is so common for anti-Catholic Protestants... the tactic even has a name - “the Protestant spin”. We all know Jesus was conceived and born without sin... duh! He’s God! Now show me a quote where St. Augustine (after he converted, of course) says specifically that Mary was not born or conceived without sin. Then please read the Protoevangelium of James and tell us that again.

They need excuses not to join the True Church.

Understand your frustration Keith. I believe we have become so prideful that we are no longer able to know when to speak up and when to keep silent. I pray every day that the Lord will remove the pride in our hearts and replace it with humility. Jesus come into our hearts! Make our hearts like yours! ❤🙏🏼

As a Catholic, I wonder whether the issue is whether Catholics know what is the right answer to these questions. Many Catholics are like the seeds that fall on thorns and are choked by these false teachers even though these false Protestant teachings are tired.

@PattiBowenSolutions i commented this with sadness instead of judging them from moral high ground. Its derived from many encounters from ex Catholics who attacked Catholics teachings, adopting the same accusations as the Protestants like Marian worshippers, idol worshippers from the Roman temple etc. These ex Catholics would claim that they have been in the church for 30 / 40 years but not been given bible lessons, seen fake priests and are spiritually dead. Now they are filled with the Holy Spirit and are inviting blinded Catholics to join them and leave the false religion Emperor Constantine founded. I can carry on. There are more. Wafer worshippers. Follwers of the whore of Babylon. These are common comments left in Catholics RU-vid vids. So do you still feel that I am judging them ? Are they not seeds that are choked by thorny false teachers ?

I think Patti initially misunderstood your first sentence, Jeremiah, as did I. It comes across as a challenge from a Protestant who thinks that neither Keith, nor any other Catholic, knows the true, Protestant answers to the five "questions" that Keith raises. But what you're actually saying is that it's important for all Catholics to know the right answers to these questions. In other words, there's no disagreement here.

@PattiBowenSolutions Thank you for your reply ! I have amended my post so that not so misleading. I am not a Sedevacantist. As a convert to the Catholic faith, I must say I am utterly disappointed at Vatican and the current /past 2 Popes for doing nothing to build the faith level of Catholics. In a biz, if the CEO and management had lost so many customers, they will be fired. The dismal PEW research on Mass attendance and belief in the Eucharist are testimony of the poor job the shephards are doing. Not to even mention shooting themselves in the feet by failing to prevent the sex abuse.

But know the thing are said in the hate of the fools that repeat them and although they are annoying but for those whom love Christ simply point out the history and facts as you have. For those who have studied the faith truly know the incredibly AWESOME love and graces the Almighty have given us. Be the person of faith God would wish us all to be and be calm. The Almighty is with us always. Be not afraid.

Well, i've just prayed to God he will remove these obsessions from my mind, i'm tired of judging protestants, and i'm tired of paying attention to these horrible arguments they make against us... may God just grant us peace and we may let all this pass, for it's His church after all and not up to us to deal with this... that we may love all whoever they are and think equally and at the end say thanks to Him for moving even if outside the sacraments... some days i'm just thankful for Hillsong and Bethel and a lot of Christian music you know? like, there's no way God isn't moving in these places in a wonderful way, to me it's a mystery, though i would never leave our blessed Catholic Church, Christ is TOO real in the Eucharist for me to go, the sacrament of penance is too real as well, may protestants come to open their eyes to these blessed means of salvation and even if they don't well, may we just not really care and move on and keep on loving them and praying for them. Former protestant here (congregationalist, sorta calvinistic, but sorta ecumenical), now fully Roman Catholic.

Cradle catholic here. Same for me no matter what doubts I have, the Eucharist always convince me that I'm at the right place. I saw our Lord one day during the procession of the Holy Sacrament. The priest wasn't there anymore it was Him standing in front of me instead. He's so real! He is Love and Peace. Just for that I will never leave my Church!

Just yesterday, a protestant had s long talk with me, and used comment #4 , it's all about Jesus and it doesn't matter what church you attend. But what made this different was that the man taught college history for many years, he had been to Catholic retreats, and even had a fondness for the traditional Latin mass. So it made me think, why couldn't this man see the truth, and all i can come up with this that his blindness comes from not having the grace. So I have it in my mind to pray for him to receive that grace. Keith, you're doing wonderful work for Christ, if you're not doing it already, i suggest a Holy hour each day. I do that ( and my rosary) to help strengthen me. God bless
