I went from being an atheistic drug addict living neck deep in sin to out of nowhere being resolute in my belief of the truth of Catholicism.

[@Zultzify]

right on first question it strikes me personally. i am a baptist, and while i love that we emphasize learning and understanding the bible before baptism, it is in that same bible we read that baptism is for everyone, and to withhold salvation from people who are deserving of it isnt a very christian thing to do. This really changes my perspective, im glad my grandparents who are the ones that taught me faith are accepting of me wanting to learn more about catholicism, i bought them a cross from the vatican when i went there, even though that would mean nothing to our branch of religion they deeply respected it, and that it was blessed by a bishop. i really wish we didnt break into separate branches of christianity, we would all be better under the original church

[@buttermargarin440]

​@ThatGuy-nr5sp It's kinda like the case of the thief. So we all know he wasn't baptized or that he did any of the sacraments. Yet he was still saved without baptism. But if you look at it he had no opportunity to be Baptized so he was an exception. That's also with a baby because a baby can't be baptized by itself for the parents have to do it. What I'm saying is if you have no opportunity to be baptized it's and exception. Let's say the thief got down alive and knew about baptism but still refused to do it or the baby grew up and knew about baptism and still refused to do it. The things would've been different. And baptism absolutely is biblical, it's mentioned alot in acts and even in letters and gospels

I’ve been a non-denominational Christian my entire life. I really value my “relationship” faith with Christ, but now I’ve found so much information about the Catholic faith and am working on converting. I’m amazed at how much false information about the Catholic Church is being taught at non-denominational churches. From baptism, to Mary, to the rosary, it’s bizarre. I was taught Catholics added to the Bible. But I’m finding out - Luther took books OUT. Which is wild to me, and scary. From the spiritual perspective…it seems smart of the devil to destroy tradition, take away leadership, still give people some of the Bible but not all of it, leave people to their own interpretation of the scriptures, etc. Very thankful for these videos you’ve been sharing!!

Council of Florence mentioned I beleive that schismastics, pagans and jews could not be saved and would go to eternal hellfire created for Angels unless united to christ through the church... but second Vatican council seems to have a universalistic view of salvation saying that even Muslims can be saved as long as the acknowledge the creator. Don't want to misrepresent the positions. But are these teachings dogmatic? Which position is right according to the catholic church. Thank you!

I didnt seen the whole video yet, but i have a question: What if a catholic christian family has a baby at age 1 and the baby is not baptised, because the parents are not that much believing. And the baby dies, will the baby go to heaven?

[@scipherfilter5913]

Of course! All babies who die go to heaven whether they were baptized or not because they are the innocent ones. What did Jesus say: Unless you be converted as like one of these little children then you will by no means enter into the kingdom of heaven.

@@scipherfilter5913 Thank you!

[@mikejames303]

​​@@scipherfilter5913The Church teaches we cannot be sure of the status of children who aren't baptized. CCC 1261 says: we entrust our children who have died without baptism to the mercy of God. It doesn't claim to know what happens to babies who aren't baptized. Tradition has taught that they are in limbo until the return of Christ, but that isn't dogmatic. As catholics we can't claim to know for sure what happens to a child who isn't baptized, just that God is merciful. But we believe baptism isn't just symbolic, and regenerates one from original sin as well as all sin one has committed prior. It's how you become part of the Body of Christ and we believe that it's a necessity to be saved. Unless a Catholic is known to have lived an extraordinary virtuous life and died in a state of grace or if a Christian was martyred for their faith we cannot claim that they are in heaven with any certainty. It may not be the answer most people are looking for, or comforting, but it's what the Church teaches and as Catholics we cannot say otherwise.

🎶 Jesus loves the little children; all the children of the world… 🎶 So why not baptize them?

[@Murphydennis2332]

I’m still waiting for the biblical verse that shows infant baptism. But children does not mean infant, They must be reading a different bible. The devil always quotes ambiguous verses because he is trying to be deceptive. How can you baptize an infant?? Was Jesus baptized as an infant??

[@lonniestoute8762]

Didn't Jesus also say something about baptized by fire ?

[@joanvarholdt313]

When Jesus said, "You must eat My Body, drink My Blood or you do not have life within you." Then, many disciples left because it was too hard to bear. (They thought He was talking cannibalism) Jesus then said to the Apostles, "Are you going to leave Me too?" Peter answered, "Lord, where would we go? You have the words of Eternal Life."

[@fillup901]

I looked up all the households being baptized in acts but none mentioned an infant. acts 8:37, which is removed in most bibles both modern Protestants and Catholic bibles states that you have to claim to be a believer as a condition for baptism. Acts has a few stories of households being baptized. So what does this mean? That everyone in the house was old enough to say they believed in Jesus Christ. The Catholic argument assumes there were infants in the households. Not my opinion I’m trying to be as unbiased as possible.

[@bridgefin]

Households in those days were not single families but a collection of several families. It would have been unthinkable that there were no infants or young children among them.

[@fillup901]

@@bridgefin children can easily accept Jesus as their savior. Jesus even used children as the leading example of the faith we should have in Him. As for infants we would have to ASSUME that there weren’t while at the same time ignoring Acts 8:37.

[@bridgefin]

@@fillup901 LOL. Make up the history you need to support your agenda! You can also assume that every Jewish potential convert would laugh at Christianity. His son could come into the covenant with God at 8 days but would have to wait years under Christianity? Absurd.

If one can be baptized by desire, then why wouldn’t all believe in protestants, who desire to be with our Lord in heaven also be baptized by desire?

[@true.christian]

The word of God says that you shall call no one on earth. Your father, for there is only one father who is in heaven why is it that you don’t follow the word of God? These are the words of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who you believe in but yet you call him father not even one minute into the video

[@agzagadoo8598]

@@Ruudes1483 i would agree that we all assumes to get sense when we interpret the bible but the priest assumed about baptism that there is no place in the bible say dont baptize children, he used acts 2... does children able to repent? so we can safely assume that in that verse that no baby or children have been baptized..

My favorite comment on Father's last video is when somebody called him the Col. Potter of the Catholic faith, or something like that. Anybody who watches M*A*S*H would agree!

[@kevinninja787]

Legit question that I have a tough time understanding. I agree Peter is the rock and foundation of the church and that he would have a successor. What I can't quite understand is why is the bishop in the city he died in his true successor? Why wouldn't it be Antioch or another city he visited? It just doesn't seem to me clear why the place of his death has the rightful claim to succeed him?

[@papagin]

What do you mean? He made Rome his seat. The current Pope is Argentinian. The Pope is the Bishop of Rome. Of course his successors are chosen within those ordained under him.

[@kevinninja787]

@papagin I think you're misunderstanding my question. Why is the Roman pontiff specifically the successor of Peter? Why does Peter dying in the city mean that his chair is inherited in that city? I just don't understand why Rome and not Antioch for example. Do his bones confer that power? Serious question, not a gotcha or anything.

[@papagin]

@@kevinninja787 you dont understand then. Pope Linus became the Bishop of Rome at AD67, succeeding Peter. These successions follow the Bishopiric of Rome. It is the Roman Rite that has been spread far around the world more than the other rites. When Antioch started to fall under Constantinople, thus began following the Byzantine Rite, leading them to be amongst those who formed a council of the East during the Great Schism. All the while Rome maintained its succession through one Bishop. Just so happens WE are Roman Catholics, our bishops follow this line. The Antiochan Church split off at some point. You should be asking the Orthodox this question really. As far as Catholics are concerned, we have one seat that has remained in communion. They are all successors of Peter through ordination, but only one is chosen to take his seat.

[@kevinninja787]

​@@papagin I agree that Peter was in Rome and died there but my point is that, as far as I'm aware, there doesn't appear to be any conclusive evidence beyond tradition that he was the first bishop of Rome

[@papagin]

@@kevinninja787 if you read up on Irenaeus letters, even he states the importance of Rome having been established by both Peter and Paul. Ignatius as well in his letters to the Romans, states he would not command them as Paul and Peter did. This is the tradition the Church fathers believed themselves. When girst century Bishops of Rome were being martyred one after the other (four in the first century alone, five if you include Peter) one could argue it was in Rome where the fight for the Church was occuring.

[@pd5149]

As a Christian you really shouldnt say you are going to make someone feel stupid and mock/laugh at them. Not a good thing to say and make the excuse that you are not a holy person. Instead you should try to correct the person in an intelligent and nice way. Certainly made the Priest un comfortable.
