About me:
Hi! My name is Vanessa and I am a 22 year old (as of video date) from Los Angeles, California! I am very invested in my faith and found a passion for teaching others about it. My passion all started out due to the fact I wanted to convert someone to Catholicism to make my life easier when it was time to get married. Long story short, that person did not convert, and I was then left with all this knowledge about the faith and about Church history and no where to put it. So now you have it! I want to educate as many people as I can on the faith, and help them understand the truth that Christ has revealed to us through the only, holy, catholic and apostolic Church he founded. I am on my journey to understand more. Everyday I work towards educating myself more and more. I will never hit the finish line of studying in this life, I will continue to learn everyday. With that being said, I may hit some bumps in the road... maybe I will get a few dates wrong... and maybe even pronounce some words wrong (even the English ones!). But I will not let my mistakes stop me, and I will keep striving to make God proud! Feel free to reach out to me via comment. I love and accept every comment regardless if you agree with me or not. I am very grounded in my faith that I do not worry about opposition. In fact, BRING IT ON. I'm just kidding with you all, but seriously, if you have anything to say, drop it in a comment down below. Hope you all have a God blessed day and rest of your week, and I look forward to seeing and hearing from you!

In your clip 7:55. Again. That is not biblical. You are teaching what is not in the Bible which is a big mistake. Deuteronomy 12:32 do not add or omit from the scripture.

Lol you said “let’s see if this argument holds any *water*” Love the pun

[akimoetam]

Baptism is for everyone! Come! Be baptized for the forgiveness of sins!

Thanks for the video, I found it at the right time! Greetings from Nicaragua, and please, keep up the good work!

Yes and then have them confirm their faith as teens or adults 😊

Another reason why infant baptism should be done is that baptism is now used in place of circumcision as a covenant with Jesus. In Col. 2:11-12 Paul refers to baptism as “the circumcision of Christ” and “the circumcision made without hands.” During that time it only infants who were circumcised under the Old Law. If infants where not to be baptized why would St. Paul draw parallel with circumcision and baptism as he talks about a covenant.

Sounds like the Bible study leader is a protestant. Regardless, the problem I have with protestant denominations(all 30, 000+)is that they do not take into consideration the history of the Church prior to Luthers heresy. Great video and great references. Keep up the good work of God.

Great video very informative and interesting. Anyone notice how when she talks her nostrils ever so slightly flare from time to time? It's rather cute.

[hectorramirez]

Not to mention when the people of Israel were all baptized* 1cor 10, 1-2 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our ancestors were all under the cloud and all passed through the sea, a2and all of them were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.

I believe you are sincerely incorrect and have not studied your bible.

Here's some facts about the Catholic Church:

Authority - the church has and will continue to change their position on faith as it is written in the Bible to suit their needs and to have complete control over your conscience (read the converts catechism of Catholic doctrine).

Also the church claims the "authority" to change God's moral law although Deuteronomy 4:2 says God's law cannot be changed.

The Catholic Church claims to have the "authority" to remove the 2nd commandment, rewrite the 4th commandment and break the 10th commandment into 2 parts.

The following verse is speaking about Rome changing God's Law that is spoken about in the converts catechism.

Daniel 7:25
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.


Brothers and sisters, if your desire is to follow a system that clearly worships false idols and blaspheme God, then the Catholic Church is the beast power of revelation 13 and you will be receiving the Mark of the Beast very soon. Be not deceived. It is time to come out of Babylon.

Your explanation of Matthew is incorrect. Peter's name means pebble(not rock). There is only 1 Rock and that is Jesus Christ.

Jesus is the Rock
1 Corinthians 10:4
4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

In no way did Jesus give Peter his authority.

Read Matthew 16:22-24
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.

23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

God gave nobody his seat or authority. If Jesus gave Peter authority then what was the need of the Holy Spirit?

You are clearly misquoting the word of God and teaching others to follow the commandments of men rather than the commandments of God.

God's word is very clear on sola scriptura:
Isaiah 8:20
20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

2 Timothy 2:15
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

The Bible does not need you to interpret the teachings. The Bible teaches otherwise. The Bible is it's own expositor. In other words, there is no need for a Pope or priest to interpret the Bible for you.

1 Peter 20:21
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

Can an infant accept the message? They can’t. That’s why they did not get baptized. And infants have not sinned so there should be no forgiveness of sins. Babies and children’s baptism originated over 800 yrs ago about original sins (not biblical) and Catholics belief they if they die without being baptized, they go to limbo (again, not biblical). This was corrected by your pope around 1984 and the Catholics church declaration that the teaching of limbo in the church was an 800 yr old mistake.

Here is some scripture debunking infant baptism:
Acts 8:35-38 - Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.
(We can clearly see that the Eunuch couldn't get baptized until AFTER he believed in Jesus, babies are not capable of believing, the baptism is in vain if the person isn't believing).

[jennernolast]

The people who were baptized in the scripture are the ones who heard the teachings and accepted it and Jesus Christ. The Who were baptized are the ones who asked forgives. Then they were born again (not the religion). So babies and infants doesn’t need to be born again.

In Luke 18:15, Jesus said the kingdom of God is theirs. They don’t need to be baptized.
