HOUR 1: John Martignoni - Scriptural Apologetics
HOUR 2: Mark Giszczak - Suffering: What Every Catholic Should Know

Timestamps:
00:00:00 - We'll Begin Soon
00:03:06 - Introduction
00:12:20 - Would It be ok for Catholics to believe extra books of the bible like 3rd and 4th Maccabees as inspired scripture?
00:18:29 - Where do we see in the bible passing on of the diaconate, priesthood and episcopacy?
00:25:21 - Could we use Mt.18 as evidence for confession?
00:32:28 - What’s the difference between Catholics and Protestants?
00:41:51 - Gal 1:17 used as evidence for not needing apostolic teaching but for individual interpretation. What’s the rebuttal?
00:46:02 - It seems that John 20 is sufficient for salvation. What is the Catholic Rebuttal?
00:50:06 - How do we understand sin based on the bible, and how does that correlate with Jesus giving authority to forgive those sins?
00:53:30 - I’m a convert. The Methodists are the only exception with more authorities than scripture.

00:58:06 - 5-minute break
01:03:06 - Welcome back!

01:14:48 - How do we alleviate suffering since we can’t totally get rid of it?
01:26:57 - I’m a widow. It’s important to call out to God during suffering.
01:35:45 - I’m in my 80’s and in constant pain. My wife constantly takes care of me daily and has embraced suffering daily.
01:45:52 - How does suffering connect to the souls in purgatory? How can suffering bring us closer to God?
01:54:24 - Can you expound on your comment that suffering is related to evil?

Jesus gave to men to forgive sin of course we all are Jesus priests we recitate this on the Lords prayer 🙏

Friendly Protestant here. The denomination that was mentioned at the beginning which was anti-Catholic was almost certainly some sort of Calvinist denomination. They do not get along with anybody who is not one of them, whether they be Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, or other.

Why on Hebrews 2:15-16 Christ Jesus at his dead he became our High Priest because he is the only one who paid for our sins?

[tatie]

A load of beads and repeating the same prayer a hundred times drives me crazy.

No point in continuing with your Q n A when u have no answers n no proof of the Immaculate Conception n assumption dogmas.

So pls show proof that Mary was conceived sinless n assumed into heaven. This is why it's foolish to believe in the infallibility nonsense
