- The TAN Roundtable: The Errors of Protestantism
Originally recorded November 17, 2022
In Christ's love for us, the fullness of Truth found in the teachings of the Church encompasses Tradition and Scripture. What was handed down from the Apostles still guides Holy Mother Church today through the Holy Spirit who would "teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you" (John 14:26).
In time, though, moral relativism took hold, perverting the good, true, and morally right understanding of the one, apostolic, holy Church. How can we best understand and appreciate the Church's teaching of the Catholic faith since apostolic times.
Fr. Chad Ripperger, Steve Cunningham, and Joshua Charles join TAN's Mary Harrell to discuss how errors have led to the crises of Christ's teachings as handed down through the Apostles.
The TAN Roundtable is a live webinar that occurs once a month discussing various themes pertaining to the Catholic Church: the spiritual life, the saints, the enemies of the Church and so much more. The TAN Roundtable features three guests alongside our TAN publicist.

I'm a former Baptist Pastor turned Presby turned Lutheran, and I am now in RCIA by God's grace. One thing about hardcore Lutherans is they realize that "the Pope is antichrist" is in the Book of Concord, and this makes it hard for them to convert. Also some of the most scholastic ones (Confessional Lutheran) like to poke holes in history in order to bolster the Solas. I had to fight my way through these things, and the question on the Canon was big in my conversion. Epistemology in my case can't be overstated. Thank you for this great roundtable.
So far, all the popes have only been lowercase "a" antichrists. But, there is still time. 666.
Really curious to your story! Pastor now Catholic, now that's crazy! One of the major issues with me is when catholics say there is no salvation outside the church. Are then Protestants saved? So many questions though.....
I’d like to add my experience and what I see across the spectrum. I was born in NYC in 1964. My church nuns went from habit to skirts, big hair and make up in the early to late 70’s. I barely knew my basic prayers and had no understanding of Catholicism when I went on to make my communion, penance then confirmation. Then after, I only went to church on occasion or not at all. After a life of perdition, life bought me to my knees in 2019 where I resolved to commit myself and learn my faith after an encounter with Our Lady. At age 53, I was saddened and mourned extensively the loss I felt of having Christ stolen from me. I am part of probably 75 percent of Catholics. Where do we start? There’s zero help for us in the church as it is devoid of Spiritual Directors and Confessors that will take time with you. I find that my education level seriously lacks and it affects my comprehension of the books that I can understand. It has taken me 4 years just to try and reach a level where I have a basic understanding of tradition. Its sad. We need help and we thirst for it.
So true…very happy you’ve come back
It's not too late. I would start by reading a good Catechism for the most basic understanding. Baltimore Catechism is good. Catechism of the Council of Trent. The older pre-V2 Catechisms. Podcasts like Dr. Taylor Marshall's old stuff has good Bible studies. There's a Bible Study with an FSSP priest on SensusFidelium that's good as well. I think the most recent one is on Genesis. I was in your boots just a few years back to some extent and that's basically what I did. Reading the Bible from cover to cover multiple times is a good thing to do as well. I also read the missal (TLM) every day. The Fr. Lasance missal has a little something about the saint for each day as well. For more spiritual reading, Humility of Heart, Imitation of Christ, the End of This Present Age were life-changing for me.
I'm in the same position, l've got over my exasperation at how lame the Catholic Church is over Pastoral care. Harsh but factual, look where being nicey nicey and bland has got the Church, nowhere fast!
So l imagine l'm a hermit and l have to set up my own structure and routine, l have no one in my circle who is actually Catholic for instance.
Yes it's good to "squeeze back in" so to speak and get one the last seats just before Revelations
But basic facts, you have to ask God for guidance in everything, and do everything yourself.
But when l was a child Catholics were good people, but in retrospect completely passive, and just being carried along by the crowd.
I have to Google everything there are no structures in place for "prodigals" and no celebrations at their return either, just blank looks.
Also l found l have had to cult "deprogram" myself from all the worldly ideas that l have picked up over a lifetime, usually the opposite is true spiritually.
Yet still we are blessed next to most we meet everyday.
@veronica griffin,
I agree with you. Very well said.
@@marciasloan534 When l came out of Low Mass today l chatted with a Syro Malabar Lady, l think it benefitted both of us.
I think on Sunday l'll loiter at the back of the Church on the way out and say good morning to everyone, see if it breaks thru our icy English reserve and decorum. 😉
Only 2 people spoke to me after my 1st Mass (that l was overwhelmingly ahnxious to go to to for some reason) They were both gentlemen of a certain age who had leaned over my garden gate on occasion in the past few years, to ask for some pot herbs now and then, and who l didn't know were fellow Catholics!
I think it's time we started nurturing communities again.
Oases of calm in the maelstrom of a world turned upside down.
Bless you for "pausing to chat" Appreciated.
I converted to a catholic 20 years ago and I am still growing in the lord. ❤
Welcome home.....
From what demonic LIE did you convert from?
Tan's new Resurrection Series -all in the series- should be on every serious Catholic;s bookshelf. They are absolutely beautiful. Fell in love with the series after reading the story o St, Sebastian. One of the most helpful things we can do to grow in our faith is to understand and live a more virtuous life. There are two books in the series that teach on the virtues, one by St. Albert the Great!
Blessed convert 25 years this Easter 2024. Thanks be to God.
I become catholic exactly because I Learned about the tradition and I fell in love with the richness of the church.
My husband worked with a dispensationist Calvinist and readily accepted that his son wasn't chosen. I can't think of a more hopeless way to worship Jesus.
Calvinism and dispensationalism is double cringe.
And these people like that man lack fruit in their lives, totally broken and all ego.
Calvinism is just the worst.
Had to read Calvin for a Trinitarian Theology class in college. I walked away from him seriously wondering how people were not left suicidal after reading his theology.
Calvinism is blasphemy
So is worshiping God through ONLY through works too...
my husband and I are converts from protestantism! Love this talk so good🤍
How could you convert to ROMAN Catholicism after being a New Testament Christian?
Do you really believe that the pope has the power and authority to release souls from a purgatory that the Bible never mentions?
"Christ is the head of the church", Colossians 1:18, 2:19 Ephesians 4:15 and 5:23."
For there is ONE mediator between God and man, the Lord Christ Jesus. I Timothy 2:5."
What is the best source, the Bible or the pope? 🤔
@zoey&norman..yes! great conversation!
@@jeffmilum9001 You are absolutely correct. I'm a convert to Protestantism from Catholicism.
@@jeffmilum9001 'Roman' is is a rite within Catholicism, its the Latin rite. It has nothing to do with ancient Rome.
Also, from the catechism of the Catholoc Church paragragh 480:
'Jesus Christ is true God and true man, in the unity of His divine person; for this reason He is the one and only mediator betwee God and man'
You are mistaking mediation for intercession
@@user-lh5li8ll7iNo offense but you said "mediator" didn't you? Then why do you need a priest and why pray to the various saints? And how did Christianity become Catholicism? 🤔
Listening to this roundtable discussion panel makes my head spin. 😵💫
The brains and intelligence all of you have been gifted with is a blessing.
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I love the Church.
The blessed Mother has given me a mission passing out her Miraculous medal in public.
So this makes up for my wee little brains! 😁
This round table is crucial for youth of today because a good number do not value tradition of any kind anymore and they are actually being separated from it. It is important to stress how crucial it is to learn from our elders.
The youth are a lot more traditional than the elders currently
@@HA-me3ed And that’s because the youth hate the ways of the boomers, having seen it for the vapid contrivance that it is. Those younger people who have had the fortune of finding tradition have embraced it as for the first time they’ve had something real and authentic.
I am going to find and pray the Binding Prayer for my Mom. She reacts to anything Catholic like a rabid animal. I've hid a Green Scapular in her bathroom to the backside of a drawer, and have been saying its prayer every day. Sometimes I forget for a day or few (and I can guess why I forget) for 6 months. I need this additional weaponry.
Hi, not sure if you have the authority to do a binding prayer on your mother. Perhaps you can check that or check father Rippergers videos on deliverance prayers.
You don’t have the authority to do that on your mom. You can pray for her and love her. The devils thee bc of her own will and God alone can take her blinders off.
Maybe your Mother should get Exorcised. Since Satan, Fallen Angels and Demons *HATE* the Blessed Virgin Mary.
She can ask Jesus to bind the demons preventing her mom’s conversion.
Pray a 54 Rosary Novena for her. I just finished one for my brother and Mary absolutely transformed his life in ways I never expected or even asked for. The Miraculous Medal is also know for its incredible conversion stories!
“‘I went to Catholic School’ and what follows is not going to be good.” Too true! The one that saddens me more is, “I was ‘raised’ Catholic but I’m __ now”
(No, you were not and are not Catholic and you were raised poorly.) I teach Scripturally, doctrinally, dogmatically and Traditionally sound Catholic theology to Catholic adults and ALL of them are saddened that they previously had no idea what Catholics purport to believe (exacerbated by the confusion and divisions coming down from the hierarchy) AND they are on their knees praying for the conversion of their children and grandchildren.
The TAN book I’m reading at the moment is “The Secret of the Rosary by St Louis De Montfort. I love Tan book, they’re brilliant. It’s held in high esteem here in England’s Catholic circles 😮
What kept me trapped in fundamental protestantism and scriptural literalism for so many years is the mythical fog surrounding scripture alone, and reading the 66 book Bible apart from any concept of who is speaking to whom, context, genre, etc etc. I was taught and listened to countless sermons on scriptures taken entirely out of context. The Apostles, were called "disciples" and that we are all disciples, so everything Jesus is recorded as telling his "disciples" is addressed directly to us verbatim in King James English. Having someone come alongside to elucidate scripture, calling upon 2000 years of wise experience, began to open my eyes, like the Ethiopian eunuch. I ended up becoming Catholic once I could see, albeit imperfectly, the truth
@gentlegiants1974
So Jesus' sacrifice on the cross for our atonement was not literal?
Peter was a disciple and an apostle. Disciple is a learner, student. Apostle, a messenger.
mathétés: a disciple
Original Word: μαθητής, οῦ, ὁ
Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine
Transliteration: mathétés
Phonetic Spelling: (math-ay-tes')
Definition: a disciple
Usage: a learner, disciple, pupil
The roman catholic douay-rheims version calls the 11, disciples. So referring to them as disciples also is not wrong.
16And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
@@nightowl5396 My point was that the denomination I belonged to made no distinctions between what Jesus said in a general way to all within earshot as in the sermon on the mount, and the personal conversations Jesus had with the Twelve on certain matters. Or what Paul wrote to Timothy and Titus. Yes the Apostles were all disciples, but not all disciples were Apostles. Discipleship is what we must bring to the table, Apostleship is a gift from God to those men He chooses and will continue to the end of the Age.
Of course the sacrifice of Our Lord on the Cross literally occurred. Who says otherwise? The Cross is the only way there is. Literally. Not sure why you would pick an argument with me sir. I did not intend a 10 second youtube comment to be a treatise or scriptural exegesis
Joshua was a huge part of my conversion! The st ignatious red pill woke me up to the reality of the church.
He’s my brother. He played a big role in mine too. I’m still in catechism but without him I wouldn’t have taken even a second look at the Catholic Church.
@@MyMachineWorld1990God bless you sister, hold fast, the barque is going through some big storms, but we stay! I'm sure you already know that, since you're his brother! God bless you and Our Lady keep you
I am protestant but am interested in learning about Catholicism. I went to a Catholic church once when I was a young girl with my great grandmother and never forgot about it. I know my family was Catholic for generations before my grandmother gave it up. Once they left Italy, all of their children rejected the faith. I want to know more about why somebody would choose Catholicism over protestantism, where should I start?
There's a channel called "The Coming Home Network International". It's entirely about Protestants thinking about Catholicism. It has a series called "On The Journey" which covers a lot by ex-Protestants.
And for why, there's many answers. But the one that stands out is Jesus Real Presence is in the Eurachrist. There's no where in Protestantism to find that.
The first place to start is to ask who started your church? All Protestant sects are man-made. They are just off-shoots of off-shoots. Nowhere in scripture does it say that anyone is to go and start any churches. Jesus started only one Church, the Catholic Church, with the primacy of Peter and the apostolic succession that has been with us ever since.
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:8-10 ESV
@@vinc-e01 A good synopsis of the truth of Catholicism.
I know this is from a few months ago. I recommend praying the Rosary daily, if you don't already. I will keep you in mine. 🙂
I read Tan books since I was a teenager in the 80's.. 🎉🎉🎉
You should bring these men back for a reboot 🎉
My favorite TAN books are are both of the pair of books by Catholic teacher Ann Ball "Modern Saints."
As a convert, learning about the Saints (as Dr. Scott Hahn says, "they are our older brothers and sisters in Christ") was so wonderfully eye-opening. Ann Ball was particularly devoted to Mexican Martyr Blessed Fr. Miguel Pro, who also touched my heart after reading about him in one of her "Modern Saints" books.
Scott Hahn needs Prayer.
I’m converting to Catholicism and when I told someone they said something about tradition. I told them that we have traditions too…
There’s a different between capital T Trasition and traditions. Tradition is the sacred deposit of faith .
@@DF-fo9bh capital T at what point do you realize that behaving like a Pharisee is NOT a good trait?
@@jtfike At what point do you bother to learn anything about Catholicism from Catholic sources?
TAN Book : 'WHICH BIBLE SHOULD I READ' . Short, GREAT, and to the point.
INCREDIBLE . WONDERFUL!
TOOOO BAD TAN BOOKS STOPPED Producing it...
Please BRING IT BACK 😢😢😊😊😊 ???????
Yes! I second this request!
This lady is a good interviewer. These men are excellent at answering her questions. Thank you!
And I am currently debating with a Southern Baptist from the true bible belt of Dallas Texas about all of these topics for the last several days and he has the same ideas. He even says that Baptists are not Protestants and insists on that and also says his line of thinking is more in line with Landmarkism!!!! Oh Brother. It is like banging my head against the wall. He will not accept any church history and says the usual that it is man-made traditions. I have heard it all before because I have known him for decades. He says he will never become a Catholic. I am sorry but they are in a state of denial. History cannot be denied but they will not look at it and do not realize they are being lied to.
Don't waste your precious time.
Your view on history involves a church that was state run by the Roman Empire. It is not the only church history nor does it represent the churches formed in Acts.
And the others telling you not to waste a breath….are they the “light of the world” Jesus asked us to be? Or are they darkness?
Your faith is in Jesus, not a church. Where two people get together, I shall be. That is a church. There is no Catholicism necessary. You willfully ignore the word of God when you make these stands. They are Christian’s and so are some of you.
The Holy Spirit doesn’t answer your prayer because you pray for the wrong thing.
The fighting between churches is not healthy for the body.
@@jtfikeThanks for giving us your fallible views on Scripture.
@@jtfike Except Jesus started a church not a mental intellectual cult.
There're a whole lot of Protestant denominations that insist they are not Protestant.
Such a wonderful conversation! God bless you all! I loved that comment “the model to file now is Saint John and Our Lady at the cross”
A terrific talk with a terrific round table! 😊
Loved this interview.

Not frightened
Excellent round table discussion. Steve is definitely on to something when it comes of the extreme hatred of Catholicism in the South. My family was a product of the Bible Belt (Texas and Arkansas) so Catholicism was not tolerated. I married a Catholic, only after I first converted her to Baptist. Well, the tables have turned because I started looking for the one, true, apostolic Church and found the Catholic Church was always there, waiting for me. I think there is a culture of anti-Catholicism in America. Some of it stems from our founding fathers (America, not Church fathers) and some that you see in the South has roots in the KKK. @TAN Books, I would love to see a book on the roots of anti-Catholicism in America.
I also think Fr. Ripperger is totally right about the need to bind spirits that are preventing them from converting/reverting to Catholicism. As a former Protestant, I was simply arrogant, ignorant, and believed myths about the Church that were wrong. I attended a Catholic Funeral Mass for my mother-in-law and the Holy Spirit opened my eyes and my heart to the Church. It’s quite possible that demons were keeping me away from the Church. I membered when my wife would make the sign of the cross and I would become enraged, “We don’t do those silly, superstitious things as Baptists!” Why should the sign of the cross bother me so much? My Baptist Deacon father got in my truck the other day and all he could focus on was the Rosary hanging from my rear view mirror.
If you think there is an anti-Catholic culture in America, you should examine the culture-bearing stratum and find out who and what they are. I can hint that they are not Protestants. lol.
The ultimate ignorance involves Protestants telling catholics they aren’t believers and vice versa.
@@jtfike - I would agree. I will say that based on my conversion experience, Catholics welcomed me with open arms and regarded me as a fellow Christian, as I was baptized. Baptists, on the other hand, warned me that I was in danger of damnation for “bowing to the Pope” (their words, not mine). For a denomination that believes in “once saved, always saved” apparently that doesn’t hold true if you decide to become Catholic. Let’s just say I’ve seen way more more vitriol coming from the Protestant side than I ever saw from Catholics.
@@Saul2PaulCatholic The Founding Fathers of the United States of America 🇺🇸. Was NOT Christians, they are Freemasons.
@@Darth_Vader258 - I would tend to agree based upon what we know of the founding fathers.
I love the joy and enthusiasm of Steve is great
This round table is refreshing and insightful. I have not been recently involved in research and literary studies in relation to the Christian faith being far removed from such past experiences ( primarily having my Master's degree in English with some focus on the Bible and literature). All three guests are genuine and very knowledgeable which I appreciate and respect greatly. I would like to see another round table of the same guests again. I enjoyed getting back in touch with my prior knowledge to reflect on while learning from these guests Thank you
I went to a Novos Ordo mass on Saturday. I had to explain to the priest that I learned sacred liturgy at Cal State Northridge where Catholic liturgical music was being taught.
Hallelujah! Three cheers for joy! 🙏✝️❤️
thank you all very much
Thank you for this. I read enough of the comments to see that there are many people, like myself, who have a strong devotion and desire to understand and live out the Faith, but feel very alone. This is not right. Is this a part of the suffering we are to bear? The reason the "evangelical" protestant churches have such numbers has very little to do with dogma or tradition, it is because it offers community, a place to be connected with others. Why can't this be in the Catholic church?
It absolutely is in the Catholic Church. Look for the traditional churches that offer the Traditional Latin Mass or at least ad orientum. Look for parishes with homeschooling families or at least a parochial school. Where there is tradition there are young families. Where there are young families there is life and community. If the church ain't crying, its dying!
Traditional Catholics go to Mass to worship God, not to socialize. The Paul V1 Mass is very Protestant. And that has been a disaster.
Parishes that are thriving with a real sense of community can be found on a website called Reverent Catholic Mass.
Sorry to be blunt, but the Catholic Church isn’t a community centre or a place for “feelings” which is a big part of a lot of protestant services. The focus of the Catholic mass is God. Modernists have tried to transform the Catholic mass into a protestant service for decades now and all it did was dumb down the laity and remove focus from God to focus on self. That is why so many left the Church, because it got rid of the sense of the sacred.
Your argument for making the Church a more social club like entity was the reason the Traditional Latin Mass and the alter and Communion rails were abandoned with Vatican II. What an abject failure. The number of people attending mass with the priest facing the people like the Protestant has plummeted as has the number of people becoming priests and nuns. What is up? Divorces and abortions.
Francis is making the Church more Protestant. It will be the One World Church but we will be the Remnant. We will not take the mark of the beast
Thanks.

My opinion is it's about fundamentalism. It is easy to believe what one can see or observe. That is, two demential thinking. To remain in a confined area of thinking and doing. To remain in one's comfort zone. To believe that a Consecrated Host is the real Soul\ Spirit of Jesus Christ is difficult to believe. One must look beyond by Faith. If one can believe via three demential thinking all the better. Knowledge is one good ability such as having a PHD, knowledge in a box. Critical thinking or three demential thinking is difficult because it's a special gift. So Protestants want to stick within a comfort zone. Catholics, even if lacking in critical thinking they have faith to believe.
hard belief ... They walked away from Jesus on just THAT needed BELIEF .
I think that you mean to say "dimensional" instead of demential, right?
Critical thinking is not "a gift", it is acquired with practice.

And the conversion of Cameron Bertuzzi which I posted on my FB page was what started the debate with my Southern Baptist friend who actually said well the Jim Jones cult also got a lot of converts, the road is wide............ This is what I am dealing with.
One thing that I notice in the seven books removed from the Old Testament in the Protestant Bible is that they are all in Greek and no earlier translations are available. Even in Ester and Daniel you notice that the Greek portions are removed from Protestant Bibles. I think they wanted a OT that could truly be tied to the Hebrew people even though the New Testament books are all in Greek. “Just a thought”
Even though they may be extant in Greek, I believe at least some were originally written in hebrew.
I've read that Martin Luther didn't really have a problem with all seven books, just a few in particular, and eventually used the language difference as an excuse to exclude all of them. But truth is truth, no matter what language it is written in. He also wanted to use his new "canon" to attract J3ws to his version of Christianity. When that didn't work like he thought it would, he turned against them too.
protestantism is often a judaizing heresy
Except the Jews spoke Greek and used the Greek septuigant and this happened during the hellinization of the Jews. Which takes place during the books of Maccabees which were removed 😂
@@DF-fo9bh And even the Jews didn't have a closed canon until about 100 years after Christ's death. The different sects accepted different lists of books during the time of Jesus.

The thing about Roman Catholic that fascinates me off course I’m talking about intellectually is that we are pushed to read and expand our understanding wow! Catholic faith is everything for me I have the miracle of The Eucharist with is my everything and a lot of to learn about secular life .

"God wills the salvation of all." Who can resist the will of God?
If (as St. Alphonsus says) even "only one drop of Christ's blood is sufficient to redeem all of humanity," the Mass for All Souls each November 2nd will have booted into heaven all the souls in Purgatory!❤
Steve, wasn't it a sin in the past (and still is) to attend a protestant service. I myself had made that error due to being poorly catechized before finding tradition. Fr Hesse had a video talking about this.
It still is. You can only attend Protestant service for weddings, funerals-but not actively participate.
Especially an illicit but valid (potentially) Baptism!! Not good! And I used to be a heretic Lutheran. I guess I’m more sensitive and repulsed by Protestant “services” and what not, due to formerly being one….. I have to assume Steve doesn’t know. I can’t see a guy like that purposely giving scandal like that.
Actually you are not banned from attending a Protestant service but you cannnot actively participate ie communion, lector, etc yes in the past you couldn’t even pray with a Protestant but this is no longer the case but you cannot substitute your Sunday’s obligation for a protestant service those who are saying and outright ban are overstepping current catholic canon law which no longer has an outright ban on prayers with Protestants nor attending a protestant service and of course you can attend a protestant wedding or funeral we have moved beyond that now. That is scrupulous behavior which the church no longer calls for
Which Bible verse says this? Oh, that’s right…you attend a church that makes it up as you go…..
@@jtfike who compiled The Bible? Oh that’s right, The Catholic Church…. You’re welcome.
The Error of the Protestant Lie:
"But as for the cowardly and unbelieving, and abominable and murderers, and fornicators and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their portion shall be in the pool that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." Revelation 21:8, ignored by all liars. See Rev 21:27 also.
It is a foregone conclusion that Jesus Christ founded only one Church.
1) Why then, do Protestants ignore this fact and continue to splinter the Body of Christ?
2) There is no Protestant who can trace his or her church back any farther than the Protestant revolt of the early 16th century.
Where is the verse which authorized them to break from the true Church in the first place?
3) No Protestant can show that their church was founded by Jesus Christ, yet Scripture says there is only one Church, the one founded by GOD (Psalms 127:1, Matthew 16:18).
4) They deny that the Catholic Church is the Church which Jesus Christ founded, yet they cannot name the Church which He did found in its stead. Isn't it strange that Scripture has said that GOD's Church will last forever (Isaiah 2:2,59:21, Matthew 28:20, Ephesians 3:21), and yet Protestants refuse to name it? If Scripture can be believed at all, why then do they refuse to name GOD's one and only Church?
5) They cannot name the person who founded the Catholic Church while at the same time they deny that it was Jesus Christ. That is strange also, since every Church on earth was founded by a person with a name. Every single one of the tens of thousands of Protestant sects can be traced back to a human person with a name, as its founder. Why is it that Protestants refuse to name the founder of the Catholic Church?
Isn't that the epitome of arrogance as I touched upon in a previous segment?
6) Why do Protestants spread the lie that the Catholic Church apostatized soon after the last Apostle died, and therefore the Church of today is not the one that Jesus Christ founded?
This lie flies in the face of Matthew 16:18, as Protestants must then have to admit that the 'gates of hell' did indeed prevail, that the Bible was in error, and that all of the verses I have previously listed that promise the perpetualty of Christ's Church must be in error as well. This so-called "great apostasy" lie is then magnified a hundredfold since no Protestant can produce genuine historical documents which record such a "monumental, universe shaking event". Every writer who was alive at the time had to have witnessed that supposed "profound event", and those who have lived ever since (up until the time that the lie was invented by Protestantism), did not write about it either. What with the "greatest event since the crucifixion" at hand, why didn't they? It is because it never happened, that's why. Simply put, "No lie is of the truth", 1John 2:21, so therefore no lie can be proven.
Scripture does say that people within Christ's Church will apostatize, but not the Church itself. For you see, it is impossible, since Christ is the Head, and the Church is His Body.
How could the Body of Christ rebel against, and leave His Head? They are inseparable forever.
"Wives, be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior." Ephesians 5:22-23
Okay Protestants, explain those verses? Is Christ really the Savior of His Body, or did He desert it as Protestantism would have us believe? Is Holy Scripture in error yet again according to Protestant false charges?
Are we to believe the Protestant lie, or the truth of the Word of GOD?
Do you recall the story of the wheat and the chaff, where the weeds will co-exist with the righteous up until the very end, and then they will be separated out and burned (Matthew 13:24-30)?
"For, in the first place, when you assemble as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it, for there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized." 1Corinthians 11:18-19.
From those two verses we have a perfect example of the apostasy of individuals within the Church, those who cause divisions and factions. Now from what I have shown in many places in this writing, just who is the cause of divisions and factions? It is none other than Protestantism. Protestantism has already created over 36,000 divisions and factions, and which number is still increasing unceasingly every week to this very day.
Who are the 'genuine among you'?
They are the faithful of the one and only Church that Jesus Christ founded and which is still with us after almost 2000 years of persecution. Read Acts 5:38-39 for the reason why this longevity.
For those who continue to spread the lie of the so-called, and non-existent, "great apostasy", please re-read Revelation 21:8, and endeavor to explain Ephesians 5:23-24?
7) How many verses have I shown in this writing that Protestants ignore? Isn't it a lie to say that you follow Scripture literally to the word, and yet ignore so many Scriptural verses?
8) Why do Protestants take the whole Bible literally except for John chapter 6, which they call symbolic? One chapter in the whole Bible is symbolic? How can that be true?
9) How can Protestants say that Sola Scriptura has been in use from day one, when for over 1400 years almost no one had a Bible, and even if they did, the great majority of the masses were illiterate anyhow?
10) Since Protestants believe that "all Scripture is inspired (2Tim 3:16)", then why aren't the gospels of Peter, Philip, Nicodemus, Bartholomew, Andrew, Thomas, etc, in their Bible?
11) Where in Holy Scripture did Jesus give instructions that the Christian faith is to be solely based on a book? How about the same question except for using the Apostles instead of Jesus?
12) Why do Protestants say it is the Bible which is the pillar and foundation of truth when the Bible clearly says it is the Church (1Tim 3:15)? Please give me the name of that Church?
13) Why do Protestants reject Apostolic Tradition when the Bible clearly says, "So then, brethren, stand firm and hold the teachings that you have learned, whether by word or by letter of ours."
2Thessalonians 2:15, yet another verse ignored, and taught against by Protestantism.
14) Why do Protestants deny that the Bible came from the Catholic Church when they cannot name a truthful and provable alternate source, and where there are literally hundreds of genuine historical documents which prove them to be wrong in their denial?
15) Protestants deny that Peter was given primacy in Matthew 16:18. Nothing in Scripture is done without a purpose. For what purpose then, did Jesus change Simon's name to Peter?
16) Why do Protestants deny that the Papacy is Scriptural, when in fact, it is very Scriptural?
17) Why is it that Protestants can never supply genuine historical documents to "prove" their false charges? Is it because the lie can never be proven, but the truth can be?
It is simple, if you have no truth, then you have no proof.
Catholics can, and do, supply genuine historical documents to prove what they teach.
Why then do Protestants refuse to read them? Romans 1:18, 2:8
18) Why do Protestants deny the unbroken line of succession of Popes down through the centuries from St. Peter to the present Pope, when the Catholic Church has given free access for anyone to research genuine historical documents to prove it to be true, but Protestants refuse to read them? Anyone can go to a secular encyclopedia and see the same succession of Popes.
19) Why do Protestants deny that the Catholic Church has existed from the first century, when hundreds of genuine historical documents, written by scores of Holy men and women, are freely available to prove them wrong in their denial? However, Protestants simply refuse to read them. As explained earlier, Protestants teach that history ended with Acts 28:30 and did not begin again until Luther came along.
20) I saved the worst Protestant lie as the last one on this list. When asked who founded the Catholic Church, there are some who answer correctly that it is Jesus Christ who founded it, but they quickly add that the Catholic Church fell into apostasy and is not the same Church today as the one founded by Jesus. Of course they have no documented proof of this world shaking event as to the who caused it and when and where it happened. By making this false charge they may have condemned themselves because they have just called Jesus Christ a liar. You see there are verses in Holy Scripture which they either choose to ignore or do not understand, and the verses show that Jesus in fact did promise that His Church would last for all time and so did St Paul😉😉
@Bible Alone…🎯 AMEN!!
Oh my gosh! I wish I knew how to print your list of 20 questions! I don’t have a printer anyway LOL so I’ll have to subscribe and keep coming back to this channel to maybe copy by hand. I left the system of Denominationalism 30 years ago when I started to seriously question the 16th century dogma of sola scriptura and I never looked back. Praise be to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ for His gift of the Church! Thank you so much for your post.
@@patquint3291 here’s one for ya:EXTRA ECCLASIUM NULLA SALUS
Saint Irenaeus (died A.D. 202): “[The Church] is the entrance to life; all others are thieves and robbers. On this account we are bound to avoid them… We hear it declared of the unbelieving and the blinded of this world that they shall not inherit the world of life which is to come… Resist them in defense of the only true and life giving faith, which the Church has received from the Apostles and imparted to her sons.” (Against Heresies, Book III)
Origen (died A.D. 254): “Let no man deceive himself. Outside this house, that is, outside the Church no one is saved.” (In Iesu Nave homiliae)
Saint Cyprian (died A.D. 258): “He who has turned his back on the Church of Christ shall not come to the rewards of Christ; he is an alien, a worldling, an enemy. You cannot have God for your Father if you have not the Church for your mother. Our Lord warns us when He says: ‘he that is not with Me is against Me, and he that gathereth not with Me scattereth.’ Whosoever breaks the peace and harmony of Christ acts against Christ; whoever gathers elsewhere than in the Church scatters the Church of Christ.” (Unity of the Catholic Church)
“He who does not hold this unity, does not hold the law of God, does not hold the faith of the Father and the Son, does not hold life and salvation.” (Patrologiae Cursus Completus: Latina, Father Migne)
“Nay, though they should suffer death for the confession of the Name, the guilt of such men is not removed even by their blood…No martyr can he be who is not in the Church.” (Ancient Christian Writers)
Bishop Firmilean (died A.D. 269): “What is the greatness of his error, and what the depth of his blindness, who says that remission of sins can be granted in the synagogues of heretics, and does not abide on the foundation of the one Church.” (Anti-Nicene Fathers)
Lactantius (died A.D. 310): “It is the Catholic Church alone which retains true worship. This is the fountain of truth, this is the abode of the Faith, this is the temple of God; into which if anyone shall not enter, or from which if anyone shall go out, he is a stranger to the hope of life and eternal salvation.” (The Divine Institutes)
Saint Cyril of Jerusalem (died A.D. 386): “Abhor all heretics…heed not their fair speaking or their mock humility; for they are serpents, a ‘brood of vipers.’ Remember that, when Judas said ‘Hail Rabbi,’ the salutation was an act of betrayal. Do not be deceived by the kiss but beware of the venom. Abhor such men, therefore, and shun the blasphemers of the Holy Spirit, for whom there is no pardon. For what fellowship have you with men without hope. Let us confidently say to God regarding all heretics, ‘Did I not hate, O Lord, those who hated Thee, and did I not pine away because of Your enemies?’ For there is an enmity that is laudable, as it is written, ‘I will put enmity between you and the woman, between your seed and her seed.’ Friendship with the serpent produces enmity with God, and death. Let us shun those from whom God turns away.” (The Fathers of the Church)
Saint Ambrose (died A.D. 397): “Where Peter is therefore, there is the Church. Where the Church is there is not death but life eternal. …Although many call themselves Christians, they usurp the name and do not have the reward.” (The Fathers of the Church )
Bishop Niceta of Remesiana (died A.D. 415): “He is the Way along which we journey to our salvation; the Truth, because He rejects what is false; the Life, because He destroys death. …All who from the beginning of the world were, or are, or will be justified - whether Patriarchs, like Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, or Prophets, whether Apostles or martyrs, or any others - make up one Church, because they are made holy by one faith and way of life, stamped with one Spirit, made into one Body whose Head, as we are told, is Christ. I go further. The angels and virtues and powers in heaven are co-members in this one Church, for, as the Apostle teaches us, in Christ ‘all things whether on the earth or in the heavens have been reconciled.’ You must believe, therefore, that in this one Church you are gathered into the Communion of Saints. You must know that this is the one Catholic Church established throughout the world, and with it you must remain in unshaken communion. There are, indeed, other so called ‘churches’ with which you can have no communion. …These ‘churches’ cease to be holy, because they were deceived by the doctrines of the devil to believe and behave differently from what Christ commanded and from the tradition of the Apostles.” (The Fathers of the Church)
Saint Jerome (died A.D. 420): “As I follow no leader save Christ, so I communicate with none but your blessedness, that is, with the Chair of Peter. For this, I know, is the rock on which the Church is built. …This is the ark of Noah, and he who is not found in it shall perish when the flood prevails. …And as for heretics, I have never spared them; on the contrary, I have seen to it in every possible way that the Church’s enemies are also my enemies.” (Manual of Patrology and History of Theology)
Saint Augustine (died A.D. 430): “No man can find salvation except in the Catholic Church. Outside the Catholic Church one can have everything except salvation. One can have honor, one can have the sacraments, one can sing alleluia, one can answer amen, one can have faith in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, and preach it too, but never can one find salvation except in the Catholic Church.” (Sermo ad Caesariensis Ecclesia plebem)
Saint Fulgentius (died A.D. 533): “Most firmly hold and never doubt that not only pagans, but also all Jews, all heretics, and all schismatics who finish this life outside of the Catholic Church, will go into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.” (Enchiridion Patristicum)
St. Bede the Venerable (died A.D. 735): “Just as all within the ark were saved and all outside of it were carried away when the flood came, so when all who are pre-ordained to eternal life have entered the Church, the end of the world will come and all will perish who are found outside.” (Hexaemeron)
Saint Thomas Aquinas (died A.D. 1274): “There is no entering into salvation outside the Church, just as in the time of the deluge there was none outside the ark, which denotes the Church.” (Summa Theologiae)
Saint Peter Canisius (died A.D. 1597): “Outside of this communion - as outside of the ark of Noah - there is absolutely no salvation for mortals: not for Jews or pagans who never received the faith of the Church, nor for heretics who, having received it, corrupted it; neither for the excommunicated or those who for any other serious cause deserve to be put away and separated from the body of the Church like pernicious members…for the rule of Cyprian and Augustine is certain: he will not have God for his Father who would not have the Church for his mother.” (Catechismi Latini et Germanici)
Saint Robert Bellarmine (died A.D. 1621): “Outside the Church there is no salvation…therefore in the symbol [Apostles Creed] we join together the Church with the remission of sins: ‘I believe in the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins’…For this reason the Church is compared with the ark of Noah, because just as during the deluge, everyone perished who was not in the ark, so now those perish who are not in the Church.” (De Sacramento Baptismi)
Notice the dates of the aforementioned Church Fathers and Doctors! Should tell the Protestants something. But like the guys in the video said, it takes Grace ultimately for them to convert! And that’s only gonna happen if we do penance for them and ask that merit be applied to them for their conversion!!
All the best intellectual arguments in the world won’t reach them if they don’t have grace!
I TRUEly believe that “all things work to the GOoD for those who Love God and are called according to His Purpose.” In that very vein I believe that the tragedy of th Protestant fracture and reformation has provided, in so many cases, a most Loving safety net for so many who fall off th Golden high bar of Catholic genius.

Martin Luther learned "saved by faith alone," from Catholic bishops and popes, for the previous hundred years. The hierarchy KNEW THE FAITH the Faith; but they too often did NOT LIVE the Faith. Hierarchy lived as if they believed *"Sola Fidei."*
Maybe you can have a roundtable and discuss what you think about Orthodoxy. I'm curious what Fr. Ripperger thinks about saints such as St. Gregory Palamas, since he and St. Aquinas are not compatible from what I've heard.

I am protestant, the last few months ive been considering the catholic perspective... its caused me to question the secular scientific nonsense i hear from my pastors. They wouldnt preach on the pericope adulterae because its "not original". Johannine comma "not original". Im sick of this apostasy. Im considering the douay rheims as my preferred bible considering the Latin has preserved the canon of scripture better than anything else.

If you have kids who have fallen off the faith, do a 33-day prep for a Marian Consecration (like "33 Days to Morning Glory") and at the end, when you consecrate yourself to Mary, consecrate your kids alongside you, by name. You don't even have to tell them that you did, because according to Fr. Ripperger, you have power over your children. I did this, and within six months my son converted. I could see the Holy Mother working on him; she is amazing.
I have Masses said for family members. It's the highest form of prayer that we have. It's not just for people who have passed on. I find it very powerful to hear my priest say their names during Mass. I keep the bulletins too where their names are printed in the Mass intentions section.
Could you please list that binding prayer you told your sister to pray about her family member to join the Catholic Church? I’ve been praying hard for my family to convert, but it feels like one day it’s looking hopeful. Then the next day we’re back to square one. I need all the help I can get.

I am trying to Read the Mystical City of God by Blessed Mary of Agreda.
But my favorite is
The Comming Chastisement by Yves Dupont printed By Tan books as his world trends was banned in Australia.
He prophesied Pius 11th death in 1938.
Allan.
The Coming Chastisement by Yves Dupont, continues to be a classic with relevancy. Every traditional Catholic needs to read it.
You want to know a miracle that happens every day? That ANYONE converts today with Pope Francis stearing the boat....is a moral miracle.
I found it especially miraculous to hear stories of people who converted in 2018. They discovered the truth still exists in the midst of the turmoil.
Have you ever actually read any of Papa Francis’ works?
@@TheCatholicSamurai I for one never said he never says anything good, he has and does. The problem with Francis is not necessarily the 99% of his content it is small. But what he does that is bad is REALLY bad. Just remember that RAT POISON is 99% perfectly fine food.
@@batboy49 But is that comment helpful if somebody comes across it as they are searching out Catholicism. I am always interested to know what exactly that one percent is that people think is so horrible? Misquoted statements by enemies of the Church? Pastoral moments that anybody would have difficulty giving a satisfactory response? What is that evil one percent?
Pope Francis, is still a *GOOD* Pope. He's NOT on the same league as Pope Alexander the VI or Pope Borgia.
Where online (elsewhere?) can the>oath< that Josh took be found? It sounds like it HAS key truths specified much needed in today's confusion!
It’s likely the oath against modernism. Which I believe is something that was taken by every cleric before the disasters of Vatican 2 and the so called “new mass”
We do not reject all tradition, but rather make judicious use of it in so far as it accords with Scripture and is founded on truth
Boettner, L. (1962). Roman Catholicism (p. 76).
All the gentlemen agreed that Protestants have their own tradition. That's the point! The modern Protestant follows traditions invented post 1500s AD in contravention of doctrines and dogmas held to be true in the universal Trinitarian church for the previous 1500 years, and exempts these modern novel invented traditions from the objection of "man made traditions" that he subjects Catholics to.
La Salette Secret says twice that Jesus will put an End to HIS enemies .
Allan.
Great show, but I’m deeply concerned with modernism in our Churches. What affect(s) will it have on our children.
Father Riperger can unearth World Trends by Yves Dupont as he had correlated.
Aloysius Perera of Campos Brazil met his sons but as he correlated prophesies they were neglected by him while he migrated to Australia.

Disappointed in the non-answer for why the Protestants removed the 7 books. It’s deep and meaningful, particular to each book, in the spirit of Modernism. Satan’s no dummy.
ABSOLUTELY ... TOO MUCH BANTER... Few FACTS...

Error of Protestantism: Novus Ordo
I like to always remember how Jesus interacted with the lady at the well when I consider the separation between the Catholic and non catholic Christians. Just like the lady at the well the people who are born into Protestant families had no choice in that and because of their faith in God and their relationship with Jesus in how they attend church, read the Bible and meet the needs of the world they will most likely never convert to the Catholic faith. But I did and do pray for them to do so as well but I refuse to talk down or belittle people who live a life fully immersed into Jesus.
I hear you, but their lives are not fully immersed in Jesus. They have no Eucharist, so they have no life. They worship a false version of our Lord, and thus cannot be truly immersed in Him. Just my unsolicited two cents.

Romans 14 applies to you and the Holy Spirit refers to you as the “weaker” Christian for adhering yo this folly.
The thief on the cross never received Eucharist….lol, it isn’t hard to put shotgun sized holes into your assertions…this is why Roman’s 14 refers to you all as weaker in the faith.

Matthew 23:9
“And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.”
Look bacj in the New Testament either (or both) St. Peter and Paul called himself/themselves " I am a father to you..." when addressing churches. You have to understand the context in which this quote, "Call no man your father ..." is often used against the Catholic Faith. And, of course, the Ten Commandment's "Honor thy father and thy mother..."
So your dad is not your father and you've never called him father? So protestants never call Abraham, father Abraham? You never celebrate Father's Day? etc

Maybe I'm naive, but why would any Catholic give a second thought to Protestant opinions of The Church?
Well, sometimes people examine things that other people think are flaws or problems or just confusing topics to decide if they have to improve or change. If people don't take the time to consider the opinions of others, then they would probably stagnate. So Catholics care about the opinions of Protestants because considering differing opinions gives them the opportunity to either strengthen their faith or decide that their current faith is wrong.
@@b-r3106 Unless you begin with the truth, that being that Catholicism is the only true religion, then I suppose one might care what a Protestant might think.
I was brought out of atheism by a voice from heaven that sounded like rushing water and thunder.
I was dropped into what’s basically deism, not Islam, not Buddhism, not Protestantism, not Catholicism, not Hinduism. Getting to Catholicism from that place took a lot of listening to other peoples perspectives, many of which I had to ultimately reject for one reason or another.
I forgot to mention this in my initial comment, but it can be important to address the opinions of others so as to clear up any misunderstandings and possibly pave the way for others to join. So by addressing the opinions of Protestants, Catholics could potentially convince some of them to join them.
@@b-r3106 Yes, it is important to lead people to truth. This I would welcome. I'm addressing false ecumenism.
