Scott Hahn on the Conversion of St. Paul

After years wondering around Protestantism, my conversion to Catholicism was completed on the feast of the conversion of Saint Paul. Thank you John Martignoni. I was confirmed Paul a year later on Easter.

[@josephcorrigan9160]

so? you were never a christian? as a wondering pro test ant! AND you still aren't a christian? Michael Ibach! even as a confirmed roman catholic who is still a pagan!

[@michaelibach9063]

@@josephcorrigan9160 pagans are people that make their own religion, aka Protestants. 40,000 man made pagan denominations, who carved idols out a Catholic book. Catholicism is exactly the religion God intended. See, I used to be an atheist, but God wouldn’t allow that, so he literally started talking to me and over time taught me many things as a Protestant, many things that while true, didn’t fit any one particular Protestant denomination. Where those things fit is in Catholicism. Everything true any Protestant sect claims, was stolen from Catholicism. The rest of what Protestants teach is all man made garbage. I assure you, me and God are still on speaking terms after becoming a Catholic and I was brought into Catholicism just as Paul was, by God Himself. The United States is the fruit of Protestantism, Freedom to worship God in anyway one would choose is freedom to worship any god you choose. Protestants rebuilt the pagan Roman Empire. Greed gluttony pride envy sloth anger and lust are her gods and 62.5 million babies have been sacrificed to those idols in my lifetime plus 2 years in abortion mills across the country. Decadence and luxury, soft living and convince for some while others go hungry. Your Protestant reformation experiment has come to an end, it failed miserably. It’s all going to be burned down. It’s already started. The Christian life cannot be lived without the sacramental life of the Catholic Church. She is His bride and She distributes His body in the Eucharist and correct interpretation of scripture.

I ask you to pray for me. I grew up in the Catholic Church and went to Catholic school, but left the faith after middle school due to egotism and my selfishness. Although I have never identified myself to others as anything but Catholic, I’ve been living an atheistic life for quite some time. I now am attempting to revert back to the Church but suffer from discouragement, despair, and bouts of depression due to my regret. I have tried to work up the courage to go to confession but suffer from doubts about my worthiness and how Christ could love me who betrayed him so harshly and consciously. I need your prayers.

[@mariog9480]

Sure! He's waiting for you in the confessional. Don't be afraid or despair. How convenient because this video is about Luke too and what could help you out is also written by Luke: Luke 15:11. Don't despair, we're all unworthy. Take hart!

[@ohmightywez]

I’ll tell you what a good priest told me, God’s love and mercy are infinitely greater than your most hideous sin. I struggle with accepting that all the time, because I don’t want to let myself off the hook. I feel like that’s cheating, so to speak. But that same wise priest told me to get my ass off the cross and get back to work in being a better Christian, otherwise I was just wasting my time. God wants you to repent but he also wants you to come back to Him and rejoice. Reread the story of the Prodigal Son. It always used to make me angry when I was little that the bad son got welcomed back and was given the best of everything. Until I realized we’re all the bad son, and we should all be happy when our lost family comes home and we should be grateful when we’ve made it back to our Father too and are welcomed back.

Good talk Dr. Hahn. Yes, Paul is amazing. I think people forget. The fact he traveled all over the Roman Empire preaching Jesus is astounding, considering how hard and dangerous travel was at the time. Yes, the film PAUL, APOSTLE OF CHRIST is a good film. The british actor James Faulnkner was quite good as Paul and Jim Caviezel was good as Luke. Another good film is a tv movie from 1981 entitled PETER AND PAUL, starring Anthony Hopkins as Paul. You have any favorite books about Paul? I've enjoyed reading N.T. Wright's books on Paul.

So was his action sinful. If he thought he was doing right. Was he culpable?

[@ohmightywez]

The Church teaches that there are necessarily “conditions” of sin. If you eliminate the word sin and substitute the word damage, the teaching makes more sense. Damage to your mind, soul or body impairs your ability to perceive and follow the will of God. And you can cause damage to yourself or to someone else. Damage is damage is damage, whether you know it is or not. If you do something damaging to yourself that separates you from God, or separates someone else from God, that is sin. But God judges based on how a person is equipped to understand the damage. We are all damaged, but our responsibility for our damage is different. The church teaches that you have to know something is wrong, then you have to believe in your heart that it is wrong, and then you have to purposefully and knowingly cause that damage that harms your ability to love and serve God. That’s why we watch our own sin, examine our own conscience and raise our children to know what is damaging and sinful so they can avoid those things and make true good decisions. And because we in our limited way cannot understand or know what is in another’s heart or how well they understand how they are damaging themselves and others and their relationship with God. I hope that helps a little bit.

Dear Dr Hahn, I much appreciate this video and your beautiful and scholarly insights into St Paul. On a personal level and I feel , perhaps wrongly, that St Paul is more quoted by clergy than Jesus. I feel Jesus is more merciful than St Paul and I find St Paul very demanding on his sexual morality , whereas Jesus whilst inviting us "to sin no more" was very gentle to the adulteress and to the Samaritan woman. What do you think of this? Am I misjudging St Paul? God Bess You and Thank You.
