Every 15 minutes, someone dies in a drink driving accident. The coloring photos are a reenactment, no one was harmed in the main of this scene.

@LostFountain @briankeepsworth .... I feel like you missed his point, and this take isn't very charitable.

@briankeepsworth It's okay that you need someone to tell you what to believe instead of reading His scriptures.

"If you want to know why I became Catholic instead of Protestant, it’s because I’m just not smart enough to be Protestant. I needed it to be obvious… and it was." 📽️ Watch Below 👇

@briankeepsworth Good video. I'll only push back on one point. What if we don't have answers for everything? What if God has deliberately left since things to mystery? If that's true, then the premise behind your initial question is already faulty.

@B_Mitchell43 @farmingandJesus It's existed in America since the beginning. Maryland was a Catholic settlement.

@farmingandJesus We always knew it was a false religion, which is why it was not allowed to exist in America in the past

They truly are the modern day Pharisees.

@JeskoRiot @CredoMilesX And happened over a period of time, and has grown over the past 1,000+ years. But thankfully, God is above time.

@Elefjohnson @CredoMilesX I think unity in the body of christ is really possible now. It is gonna take work from all sides. Just like the separation was caused by all sides.

One Church has to be completely right on everything or Christianity is false

@gonefishin1948 After years of learning about the different denominations, I've determined that God places people where He needs them. I'm not certain that any one of us has the full, unfiltered truth.

@Elefjohnson I don't either. That's why I became a Catholic.

Do you take your preacher's word for what is in the Bible and what the Bible means?

@BruceNorth46058 @AnotherStam When I was LDS, I was told that they were taken back up to Heaven. I later realized just how convenient that was.

@AnotherStam We know where they are, David. Thanks for the comment.

If we had the golden plates in a museum, and every expert in the world agreed Joseph translated the Book of Mormon correctly, would that "prove" The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true? Would everyone be compelled to join the Church?

@BruceNorth46058 Maybe. It would, at the very least, give some validity to his claim.

@elcumster My response when a non-Christian tries to tell me what Christianity is:

I love how Catholicism is just unbiblical bureaucratic idol worshipping paganism cloaked in tradition and most protestantism is just random fucking bullshit where the Bible means whatever you want. What do yall think is the most “Christian” denomination if that makes any sense?

@heliec574 @CredoMilesX Would that be Greek, Eastern, Russian, Ethiopian? There are subtle differences in each one, yet by your standard only one of them can be correct.

@CredoMilesX The orthodox Catholic Church has the Fullness of the Truth

@JeskoRiot @CredoMilesX Well said. Technology has opened a door for us that has for so long been closed. We've never had the grace to understand and communicate with each other at this level before. I pray we learn to use it wisely.

@CredoMilesX All baptized Christians are part of the Eclastial community. I believe the dogma of the church is true. If we are going to unify Christianity we cannot continue to talk down to other Christians no matter what they say. It is a struggle. We are living thru something incredible.

@CredoMilesX Where did the standard come from?

@b1lld0zer @kingofthehood89 @antepedium Call it my own weakness, but I can't wrap my head around the concept of a finite person being able to process and petition for hundreds out thousands of prayers at the same. There might be something on corporate petitions, no individual petitions seem impossible.

@Elefjohnson @kingofthehood89 @antepedium Don't need omnipresence to listen to a finite number of prayers from a finite number of Christians in a finite about of time. God can grant the saints any power he wants, that doesn't make them god. Pauls handkerchief wasn't part god but it still healed people who touched it.

The saints are not dead but that is no reason to believe they possess omniscience or are capable of hearing us and bringing our prayers to God’s ears (who doesn’t need them anyway).

@BillArnoldTeach To some degree, yes. I think guide rails are important. Creeds and confessions are important. But I take issue when the authority makes dogma issues that have no business being dogma. I know what question comes next, but I'll wait for it.

@Elefjohnson If Scripture is the final authority, why are there thousands of conflicting interpretations? Final authority without a final interpreter is chaos.

You say “Bible alone” But the Bible never says that Problem

@EricMFriel @antepedium Ok. So fairly, what would be the capacity of Heavenly Saint at any one time? I didn't expect you to answer that. The point of that no matter what limit you set, it's either way too small, or ridiculous that a finite being would be capable.

1. Onnipresence is the logical consequence of both omniscience and omnipotence manifest in the same being. It is not relevant here, just food for thought. 2. Omniscience would mean to be of infinite capacity related to being all knowing. While hearing the prayers of millions or even trillions or quadrillions is immense, it is nonetheless finite. Thus, it would not require omniscience.

@PopeDefendersX Christian. They would all be Christian Christianity is bigger then the Roman brand.

Yes, everyone in heaven is Catholic. What would they even be protestant of?

@ViiiZachary @antepedium

@antepedium The saints are certainly praying for *us* as the whole church body though.

@kingofthehood89 @antepedium You would, out omnipresence. How else would they receive all those prayers ask at once.

@antepedium You don’t need omniscience for that. What a ridiculous argument

@EricMFriel @antepedium That's exactly why I don't pray to them. Unless they had some kind of omniscience or omnipresence there is no way they could hear the prayers of millions at a time.

@antepedium It is not Catholic Doctrone to believe that Saints are omniscient. In fact, it would contradict Catholic doctrine.

@MrCasey62 And yet they do every Sunday in Protestant Churches. And you knew what? It's valid, impactful, and effectual twords sanctification and a right relationship with Jesus. Your validation isn't necessary.

Protestant “priests” CAN’T “administer” the Eucharist. They don’t even know what the Eucharist IS. You can keep your “unity”. Catholics don’t need it.
