  • 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.

    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.

      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.

      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!

      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."

    (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.

    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

      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

      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.

    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.

    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.

      @@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.

    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.

    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?

    • @ashleyslack5960

      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!

      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.

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.

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.

      If you seek out the TLM you will likely find a community that you can be happy to call friends.

    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.
