One that I failed to mention in this video is baptizing babies. We do not believe in baptizing babies for salvation. We believe you can dedicate your baby to the Lord but that does not guarantee true or salvation. Baptism must happen subsequent to salvation.

Jesus is the Way, the truth, and the life.

Christianity is not complicated, Jesus & Jesus alone is the way!

John 14:6
6 Jesus answered,  “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me....

This is a rare video - you get fairly close to what Catholics actually believe, with only a few minor mistakes. Thank you for doing everything you could to get it right! It's so nice to see a good faith effort for once.

1. We don't believe we are saved by works, but that works are a necessary part of salvation, since faith without works is dead, among other verses.

2. We have 7 more books than Protestants, not 14, books that were used by Jesus in His day.

3. We believe in three authorities: written tradition (the Bible), oral tradition (the teachings of the Church such as interpretation), and the Magisterium (the Church itself).

4. We absolutely do not put Mary on the same level as Jesus. She is less than the smallest mote of dust beneath God's feet. However, she is the Mother of God, and deserves our respect for her role in salvation history. All generations will call her blessed, after all.

5. You do not have to say Hail Marys in order to be forgiven. The penance assigned after confession is not fixed nor is it necessary. Jesus forgives us either way. However, doing penance is a part of repentance, and benefits us.

6. The Bible never once says the Eucharist is a "symbol" of Jesus's body. Jesus repeats that it is His body and blood six times without backing down.

Keep putting out such great content. It's awesome to engage with faithful Protestants.

But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Matthew 6:6

As a Catholic myself I see all people as Christians if they believe Jesus Christ is the son of God and died for our sins and Jesus is the only way to heaven. I hoped to see all of you heaven someday and pray we don’t have to go through any tribulation. God love you 🙏🙏🙏

[everblessed]

My Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy. 🙏😔

I'm proud of being born, raised and now growing ever gracefully as a Catholic. Halleluiah

[samuelhonable]

John 14:6 Jesus said I'm the way, the truth, and the life no man comes to the father except by me. There is no other name under heaven, that you could be saved by excepted through Jesus Christ. All other ways leads to destruction, asks Jesus Christ to come into your heart to forgive your sins he will be faithful and just to forgive. God bless you all.

You have said many lies about the teachings of the Catholic Church. Why don't study first Catholic Theology before you make this kind of video. Your knowledge about the Catholic Faith does not even touch the surface. What you know about Catholic teachings all seems to come from protestant christian perspective. Challenge yourself to dive deep in the Catholic Theology...

[bridgetdrummond]

I am Catholic and a follower of Christ. I have always called myself a Christian. I also believe my prayers can go directly to God.

[drexlerjohn]

I was baptized and raised a Catholic. I thought Christianity was a religion, but after scripture reading and a lot of circumstances, I learned that it's a RELATIONSHIP with God. Ever since then, things have changed for me, and I'm proud to say I deeply know God in my life.

[itsmonikamaria]

So misinformed. When we pray to saints we ask them to pray for us. They themselves don't have any other power. We would never put anyone (including Mary) on the same level as God.

[dontworryyoullbealright]

I'm a Roman Catholic and I always believed that I'm a Christian, at first, I don't know why this debate is a thing lol

[PInkW]

Jesus
* started one church
* He said it would be visible
* He said would last forever
* He would always be with it
* He said it would be messy
* He picked 12 apostles
* They picked successors
* He talked of his Kingdom
* He said Seek and u shall find.
* He said those who u forgive
* He said This is My Body
* He said father let them be one.

I'm a Roman Catholic but I consider myself as a Catholic-Christian

[winnerijeoma]

I was once a catholic but am now a born again Christian believing only on the finished work of christ on the cross for my salvation

[DoubleEdged]

Actually as a Christian when you know if someone's religious beliefs aren't Bible based it is your job to let them know through the scriptures. After that it's their choice .

[abelflores]

The meaning of Christian is to be Christ like
