3 Verses That “Destroy” Catholicism

Ahhh.... Exodus 20:4 an protestant spammed verse classic

James 2:14-26

English Standard Version

Faith Without Works Is Dead

14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good[a] is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

We are saved by God’s grace , justified by faith. Faith without works is dead (James). We will be judged by our works (Revelation)

How do you explain the Ten Commandments in the catechism being DIFFERENT than the ones in the Bible? If it's all so innocent, why would man DARE to alter the Word of GOD?

I understand brother but like you said, God instructed them to do so, and he gave them precise instructions, right? Now who say that you can do the same with the Saint are even the Lord? And for the father situation, the Lord say that because he wanted to make us comprehend that only God deserved those names because those are not just names. They are qualities and values that only God can fully carry. Now for the prayer, intercession, only Jesus Christ can intercede for us, the reason is just evident, he is the only one who died for our sins and he is the only one by whom we are saved my friend, and you say why not , praying or ask Mary are the Saint for intercession for you are for others, is not biblical it's just your point of view.

1 There was a man named Nicodemus, one of the Pharisees. He was an important Jewish leader. 2 One night he came to Jesus and said, “Teacher, we know that you are a teacher sent from God. No one can do these miraculous signs that you do unless they have God’s help.”

3 Jesus answered, “I assure you, everyone must be born again. Anyone who is not born again cannot be in God’s kingdom.”

4 Nicodemus said, “How can a man who is already old be born again? Can he go back into his mother’s womb and be born a second time?”

5 Jesus answered, “Believe me when I say that everyone must be born from water and the Spirit. Anyone who is not born from water and the Spirit cannot enter God’s kingdom. 6 The only life people get from their human parents is physical. But the new life that the Spirit gives a person is spiritual. 7 Don’t be surprised that I told you, ‘You must be born again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it wants to. You hear it, but you don’t know where it is coming from or where it is going. It is the same with everyone who is born from the Spirit.” -John 3:1-8 ERV

How does one get born again?

I was Catholic and thought I had a good relationship with God and am fairly fervent but didn't understand the sacramental life of the Catholic Church. Luckily, I did not know of the bias against what is deemed a conservative group called Opus Dei. who taught me how to love God with all my heart, mind and soul through art (liturgical art) and giving our best. I didn't know others called it opulent, but it was giving the best as what our best was... My mind was blind and could have gone judgy, but as I said, luckily, I didn't know.. And I saw with God's eyes that in this community of faith, I see people trying and becoming aware, even if some members' idea of best was funny to me, when they seem triumphantly saying (perhaps it is a symbolic act of giving away some of their riches) they gave a nun an LV bag or shoe (I bet the nun if properly formed wasn't really so impressed by the brand but just that it was hopefully good sturdy shoes, cultural references falling flat or even neutralized to reality. Some can't handle the idea that others may think it is opulent and would just monetize it.. to those who do think it is worth its brand... not so sure if we want to perpetuate that brandname mentality or elitist (pride) mentality🤑 it forms/ somehow still perpetuates by somehow using it in how people do pricing.... or just working the fund-raising system, not ideal but give to Caesar his ways and Godly things to God, I guess, choosing battles and who God wants to seed, at the moment, anyways, it is a work in progress of deprogramming to live in accordance to our Catholic Social Teachings in spirit and truth that helps show the way Jesus commanded the disciples to live basic lives.. i would just go with straight donations rather than these means of fundraising... but it's about giving away all one's riches. and they were consecrating their riches/business, etc to serve God and not to make a name or any elitist reason, and shifting to a mentality, of all of what they in their specific milieu deem as "best" for God, as when instead of wearing a beautiful Sunday dress, one wears a La Coste shirt to show one's "best." I was getting it... like the expensive perfume, why is that expensive, etc.. A beautiful mission place, holiness in work and lifestyle. I learned for the first time, about God calling a people.. It is just important to know of ways to express love for God in a communal way. It matters to do it as a people, not just as an individual.. A "personal communal" act, as the Catechism puts it. Catholic doctrine is Truth in other religions and fullness of revelation in Jesus Christ and the Holy Catholic Church having this deposit of faith. Salvation outside of the Catholic Church is obviously possible but fullness of its expression is all about being one with community, full participation in communal life as a worthy member was much of Jesus's ministry. And later, the Holy Spirit letting all know that all people of good will are welcome in this Church. It is not about being Catholic but just giving the opportunity to be a part of the fullness that human societal life can express, with all our hearts, minds and soul. It's about moving as one body and caring for each member as a part of who we are as one Human Race. We care when even if I am an eye if my foot is stubbed and in pain, the whole body is feels the pain. 😇 In this Opus Dei retreat I went to after 20 years since the last retreat (in university), they played "Rome Sweet Home: The Conversion of Scott Hahn" It touched me so much that a Protestant (Presbyterian pastor/dean to be) would give up everything and find the Catholic Church as having the Truth, Way and Life, that I got converted. I was touched when he was touched by the crying lady receiving communion so fervently... and I too wanted that deep relationship with God through the mysterious Sacraments. It was a very interesting 2.5 day retreat that was not even live-in. God was moving mightily through it. I thank God for all the fervent Protestants see the light in the Holy Catholic Church and not just go home or be Luther-in-reverse but even bring in cradle Catholics to know their faith.. 😇The structure and the people who give up their lives to serve God as pastors, ex opere operato, sure, some still need more formation work🤕 but if one looks past the outer cultural manifestations and see the heart, bottom line, (and with spiritual direction, too), we can see the heart is intact, there is still a pearl amidst the gooey entrapments of cultural biases 🙃which is more my plank than maybe the dust I see in these pastors/priests. And with God's grace, we will be able to see through it, call out the twisted manifestation 🤢for some as needed but calling out the light, sincerely and solely as such (positive reinforcement has been deemed more powerful than negative reinforcement, nowadays in creating a 2-in-1 change and guidance not from judgment but just God's justice and order ).. like Jesus and how he sees us pure and beloved despite our social trappings and how just by his seeing the Truth in our nature, the crusted dirt and pooh 💩just dissipates or falls off as false vision and the truth that we are the image and likeness of God is revealed and becomes our truth. Truth begets truth. Peace, bottomline, let the Holy Spirit himself manifest the undeniable truth to us, and all we need to do is respond, follow.. Faith that moves mountains (our mountain of dirt/blindness).. I wish there were paragraph markers hahaha.

You will be judged by God for twisting scripture.

Yas!!!!!!!! Pnly JESUS alone!!!! No mediator, nonpriest, no st Joseph etc etc but true JESUS,

This was terrific Keith! Keep up the good work!

When I realized most every protestant have their "graven images". Crosses, pictures of Jesus, depictions of biblical situations. Ye hypocrites, have you corrected others when thou thyself do the same things!? I used to be an iconoclast. Now I realize all things that point to Christ are pure. At least to those that are pure!

Why do you need to focus on a statue to draw your attention to the one who they represent? As a child born into Catholicism, I witnessed many people go to the statues of the church and touch their feet, as they were human sized and high up, and bow their heads to them as they prayed. These statues included the Virgin Mary, Saints, and even Jesus Christ on the cross. Even back then, as young as I was, I wondered why these people were praying to and worshipping these statues. No one comes to the Father except through Jesus, so why pray to Mary or to the saints?

I am so sick of Protestants saying we workshop and pray to statues and pray to Mary as if she was a God. We honor Mary being the mother of our savior Jesus Christ. Prayers of intercession is no different than asking friends and family for prayers and as far as statues... any place in the world has statues of famous leaders and even celebrities. Yet Protestants do not consider these statues idol worship! It really boils down to Protestant denomination jealously. They all shout "We have the Bible as authoritie as the word of God. You worship idols." And they spout & memorize scripture as though they have authority to judge and condemn those of the Catholic faith. Anyone can memorize scripture, it's not meant to be used as a weapon to condemn others.
The Catholic church is the church of Jesus Christ.. The Catholic Church is the only church that can claim to have been founded by Jesus Christ personally. Every other church traces its lineage back to a mere human person such as Martin Luther or John Wesley. The Catholic Church can trace its lineage back to Jesus Christ who appointed St. Peter as the first pope, to build his church.
Are they all ignorant and do not know that the canonical books of the Christian Bible were enumerated and approved by various councils, synods, and popes of the Catholic Church? Protestants make these false judgements of Catholics and pass their jealous gossip on and never even stepped or attended a Catholic Church or mass. Do even get me started on their anti-christmas idolatry rhetoric. They all need to pull the stick out of their butts!

The argument for Exodus 20:4 is not only in the commandment itself but in the fact the Roman Catholic Church modified and then removed it from their Catechism!

If idolatry was justifiable, why remove it from the Catechism?

Catholics are lost because the Church has led them astray!

In Matthew 4:1-11, Jesus resisted the temptations of the devil by quoting Scripture three times, saying “It is written” (v. 4, 7, 10). He did not appeal to any other authority, but relied on the written word of God as his weapon and defense.

In Matthew 5:17-20, Jesus affirmed that he did not come to abolish the Law or the Prophets, but to fulfill them. He said that not the smallest letter or stroke of the pen would disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. He also warned that anyone who breaks or teaches others to break the least of the commandments would be called least in the kingdom of heaven. He showed his high regard for the authority and permanence of Scripture.

In Matthew 15:1-9, Jesus rebuked the Pharisees and the teachers of the law for nullifying the word of God by their human traditions. He quoted Isaiah 29:13, saying “These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.” He exposed their hypocrisy and their violation of the first commandment by elevating their traditions above Scripture.

In Matthew 22:23-33, Jesus corrected the Sadducees, who denied the resurrection of the dead, by appealing to Scripture. He said, “You are in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God” (v. 29). He then quoted Exodus 3:6, where God said to Moses, “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” He argued that God is not the God of the dead, but of the living, and that the Scripture implies the resurrection of the patriarchs. He demonstrated his knowledge and interpretation of Scripture, and its relevance to the doctrine of the resurrection.
In John 5:39-40, Jesus challenged the Jews who searched the Scriptures, thinking that in them they had eternal life, but failed to recognize that the Scriptures testify about him. He said, “You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life.” He revealed that the ultimate purpose and goal of Scripture is to point to him, the source of eternal life.
In John 10:34-36, Jesus defended himself against the charge of blasphemy by the Jews, who accused him of claiming to be God. He quoted Psalm 82:6, where God called the unjust judges of Israel “gods”. He argued that if those who received the word of God were called “gods”, how much more could he, whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, be called the Son of God. He said, “If he called them ‘gods,’ to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be set aside—what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world?” He affirmed the truth and authority of Scripture, and its witness to his divine identity.
These are some of the things that Jesus said about Scripture. He showed his respect and submission to Scripture, his understanding and application of Scripture, and his fulfillment and confirmation of Scripture. He also taught his followers to do the same, saying, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” (John 8:31-32).

Exodus 20:4 (LSB): 4 “You shall not make for yourself an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth.

So you should listen to Peter over Jesus? Noooooo lol

Jesus never says to make statues of himself. A "graven image" is literally ANYTHING carved, or formed. It doesnt matter if you believe the statie is actually a god when you bow to statues and pray. That's what idolatry is

Jesus came and made the ten commandments irrelevant

Thank you for reminder me how beautiful is the Cathoic church, the one and only church.

Nice try. I'll pray for you.

As a Protestant you didn’t say any of the points that Protestants disagree with. Mainly the Rosary and praying to the dead. The vast amounts of worship (yes I know Catholics DONT worship Mary… yes you do). You guys take a verse of praying for one another to full blown praying to dead Saints. You have also taken out of context Mary asking Jesus to make more wine thinking that means she is an intercessor. What did Jesus say to the woman that said blessed is the woman that bore you and nursed you. He downplayed that role so much as to say “blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it”. Keep the sacraments, but do away with all the idols and keep it 100% Jesus and I think we can come back together

Perfect explanations Brother Keith! It is the Holy Spirit revealing All TRUTH!!

You are simply a liar promoting this non gospel thing.
God told him to put it in holy of holies not for people to worship
But why do you deny that you give honour a statute
Where is it written to build images to be honoured.
Where do you read this in gospels.
Xtianity must be based on what jesus said not what constantine saif and created.
BUT ACCEPT YOU ARE ARGUING TO PROMOTE CATHOLIC WHEN SOME THINGS ARE NOT IN GOSPEL WHERE DO THEY COME FROM.
jesus never taught catholicusm but the gospel.
The gosoel of the kingdom will be preached throughout this world.
But why do you keep quotinf catholicism not jesus ..gospel.
Accept greek..roman paganism is in catholicusm which is later taken up by others

Thank You, God Bless You 🙏

Many, many thanks for your videos. You are helping Catholic born people too. I like from Protestants their deep study of the Bible, which I have never seen from catholic priests (I am not from USA), so I am very grateful when a former Protestant pastor becomes catholic: you explain the Gospels. Thank you, and God bless you.

Since when are the dead saints omnipresent. Scripture evidence please. Another problem is infant baptism. Scripture teaches only the blood of Christ washes our sin away. Why did the church invent purgatory 500 years after Christ ascended into heaven?

Great Video! It amazes me how much energy and efforts scores of evangelists, many protestants and lots of Islamists spend trying to deface and destroy the Catholic Church. I wish they would focus on their own "herd" and practice something called "love" and "respect" - If I remember well, this is something that our Lord Jesus preached over and over (and yes, Catholics do listen to and read the Bible). May God bless you all and thank you for these explanations, Ciao, L (Catholic Veteran, the kind that rediscovered his religious roots and prayers in a foxhole).

Okay, so you admit you don't believe the Bible... it is not your only rule of faith and practice. On the subject of idols... graven images to which Catholics need form and figure of to whom they pray to, is Necromancy, a pagan practice to which God says, in the Holy Scripture, is an abomination to Him. Deu.18. He did not make man to worship dead people by praying to them for aid and comfort. You also accuse God of being a hypocrite. Man, I don't want to be near you on Judgment Day.

The best way to destroy Roman Catholicism is to read your Bible. And the truth will set you free!!! HALLELUYAH!!! JESUS CHRIST IS LORD !!!

what really "destroys" catholicism is it rejects that Christ's death on the cross was enough for salvation. it has many other false man-made doctrines and practices, but this is the major stumbling block.

Proud to be Catholic

Jesus is the the only intercession we need. Not Mary and not saints.

On the first verse just having these things to "focus on" is a dangerous thing to do, why would you need something to help you focus on God? Jesus said The Father is looking for those to worship Him in Spirit and Truth.
Use your heart to focus on God.
On the second verse Jesus was referring to the usage of "Holy Father" the same title as what He called God The Father.
When Catholics call the pope "Holy Father" this is what Jesus meant not the biological father.
On the third verse I agree with what you said on that, it is the Saving Grace of The Lord Jesus Christ and not works that save us.
On the fourth verse concerning intercessory prayer we are called to pray for one another and there is nothing wrong with that but it should be for and about the living.
Asking those that have passed on to pray for us could end up being a slippery slope and open up doors to things a Christian shouldn't be involved in.

Idolizing anything is against God’s will!

Matthew 15:8-9

I am happy that finally more brothers and sisters go against catholic cult bc it is evil that spreads cancer can from the core of the Vatican,that leads people to hell 🔥...promote Jesus and His teachings bc that's the only life we do have,which is in Jesus Christ 🙏.

Thanks!

"I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. "I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever * you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever * you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven."
Matthew 16: 18,19. Use this verse 19 and understand it.....

Thank you kindly, but what about purgatory and Mary Worshipping?
And the corrupt Popes, previous ones, and the present one?

Amen brother...keith. God is great..

I feel very sorry for you & the rest of the Catholics as you are totally confused. Be humble & know the TRUTH & the TRUTH will set you free.

I is not a Christian, No no no, the Catholics does not worship image, they worship almighty God.

Very easy to proove Catholic doctrines are fake. Your are also not allowed to call the clown standing in front of you " Father" There is also only ONE FATHER GOD !!

If you don't worship them...
WHY DO YOU KNEEL BEFORE THEM?
If you understood Scripture you would know that Exodus is A HISTORY OF ISRAEL. Jesus said I came to fulfill the law not to abolish it. His death completed the work God started. Jesus is the ONLY way to heaven. There is NOTHING a human can do to enter heaven on his own. Can't pray enough. Can't give enough. Can't suffer enough. The ONLY thing man can do is Confess with your lips Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart He was resurrected from the dead and you will be saved. Rom 10:9
This guy is fighting for traditions and philosophies created by man when the Bible warns about.
"Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ."
Mary, Joseph, Mark, Paul or any of the other dead humans can't help you through your prayers to them. There is one mediator:
Jesus the Christ.
"For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus," 1 Tim 2:5
Nowhere in Scripture will you find Mary or any other "saint" listed as mediator.
The RC did not sprout from the Council of Nicea. It came from the Council of Trent (1200 years later).
Eph does kill the RC.
Else, why do RC go to confess their sins to some guy. Jesus' resurrection wiped our sin (if we confess Him as Lord).
Why do RC believe they must do penance? Jesus blood wiped our sin completley
Why do RC believe they need a priest to intercede for them? Jesus is the ONLY mediator 1 Tim 2:5
Why do the RC one needs confirmation? Jesus sealed us when we confessed Him as Lord Rom 10:9
I could go on but...
You should read Scripture instead of listening to some cult leader that could care less about your sould.

I realised Catholicism was wrong at just 9 years old, a pity that an adult can't understand that.

i am between issues was looking for satisfaction in life felt empty in heart i am born and raise a catholic am 70 years old went to the other church looking for answers it was good for a time feel empty again please pray for me and family

Can't thank you enough my for enabling me to confidently to answer questions I have been unable to give answers to for decades. May the good Lord continue to shower you with lots of blessings.

statues , symbols and carvings That have its origins outside of Christianty ... that has always been a Pagan practice...Preying to the Saints also isn't recommended...
