@oliviacola I grew up having deep theological conversations on the daily in my home. We held a weekly Bible study at our house for almost a decade. There really isn’t another subject quite as vast and stimulating as the Bible. These other Christians you speak of r cutting themselves so short

It’s always been interesting to me, anytime I’ve tried to talk to someone who is a Christian & Bible reader, they can’t hold a conversation about the Bible. I enjoy reading Gods Word, mind you, I’m no scholar, I just like to have a back and forth discussion & some people just can’t.
Also, I’m not looking to debate or looking to tried to be schooled. Or looking for on online discussion, I’m talking about in person.

@JaredDHardin I like getting the best of both worlds by reading a chapter out of both testaments daily. For example, I’m in currently in Psalm and also 1 Corinthians. I’ve found this method to be very spiritually nurturing.

What are the major differences between Catholicism and Evangelical Christianity?
These aren’t small nuances, they shape how we understand salvation, authority, and the daily Christian life.
1. Authority: Scripture vs. Scripture + Tradition:
Evangelical Christianity: Holds to Sola Scriptura. The Bible alone is the final authority for faith and practice.
Catholicism: Teaches that authority comes from Scripture + Sacred Tradition, interpreted by the Magisterium (teaching authority of the Church, led by the Pope).
2. Salvation: Faith Alone vs. Faith + Works (Grace-enabled):
Evangelicals: Believe salvation is by grace through faith alone (Ephesians 2:8–9). Good works are the result of salvation, not a cause of it.
Catholics: Teach salvation begins by grace but involves faith working through good acts (including participation in the sacraments and a life of obedience).
3. The Role of the Church:
Evangelicals: The Church is the community of believers. No single human leader has universal authority.
Catholics: The Church is a visible, institutional authority founded by Christ, with the Pope as the successor to Saint Peter.
4. Sacraments / Ordinances:
Evangelicals: Typically recognize 2 ordinances: Baptism & the Lord’s Supper. These are symbolic acts of obedience.
Catholics: Recognize 7 sacraments, including: Eucharist, Confession, Confirmation, Marriage, etc. These are believed to actually convey grace.
5. The Eucharist (Communion):
Evangelicals: Typically see it as symbolic remembrance.
Catholics: Believe in transubstantiation. The bread and wine become the actual body and blood of Jesus Chris (while still appearing as bread and wine).
6. Mary and the Saints:
Evangelicals: Honor Mary as the mother of Jesus but do not pray to her or the saints.
Catholics: Venerate Mary and the saints asking for their intercession (prayers).
7. Assurance of Salvation:
Evangelicals: Often emphasize assurance of salvation. You can know you are saved through faith in Christ.
Catholics: Typically emphasize hope and perseverance. Salvation is something to remain faithful in, not always claimed with certainty.
8. Confession of Sin:
Evangelicals: Confess sins directly to God for forgiveness and atonement. Confess to other believers for accountability and fellowship.
Catholics: Practice confession through a priest (seen as acting under Christ’s authority to forgive sins).
BIBLE TRUTH:
The work of Jesus made the way possible to go directly to the Father. You don’t have to go through a priest or pope for forgiveness and restoration.
The Spirit intercedes for you, so you don’t have to appeal to Mary and the Saints for intercession.
You are saved by works. It’s just not your works, it’s the works of Jesus (life, death, resurrection). Trust in Him, and Him alone!
