Why the Bible Is Actually a Catholic Book (feat. Fr. Chris Alar, MIC)

Do you often wonder about the origin of the Bible? How often do you hear people say that the Bible is not actually a Catholic book?

Divine Mercy is a gift given to us by God. Devotion to Divine Mercy has been growing through the revelations to St. Faustina and the modern-day ministry of St. John Paul II. What Catholics may not realize is that the revelation of Divine Mercy is interwoven into the Bible.

The Divine Mercy Catholic Bible clearly shows the astounding revelation of Divine Mercy amidst the timeless truths of Sacred Scripture. This Bible is edited and compiled by several Marians of the Immaculate Conception — including Fr. Chris Alar, Fr. Donald Calloway, and Fr. Seraphim Michalenko — and other authors to explain how God encounters us with mercy through his Word and sacraments.

Reading this Bible will help transform your mind, heart, and soul as you discover the overwhelming love God has for you.

Very well said Father Chris. We’re learning so much from you. Your daily homilies and Saturday talks at the Shrine of the Divine Mercy are powerfully informative and should never be missed! Thank you and God bless.🙏🏻🤍💐

Fr. Chris Alar is a gift. He helped me come back to the faith.

Fr Chris, it’s great to see you on Ascension again ! I remembering you talking about the chained bibles in a homily—that was the first time I had ever heard of that. And it makes perfect sense! As a cradle Catholic, I never tire of taking so much joy in the beauty of the Faith, and that includes the Bible. (I love my Divine Mercy Bible).

Glad to see someone with authority saying it.

[kelleya]

This was needed. Thank you!! There are a lot of popular podcasters out there telling a different story about the missing books of the Bible. I never realized how many people blanket everyone in the Catholic faith as part of a cult. My Catholic faith is everything to me! Again, 🙏🏻 thank you!

[praveenliverpool]

Well explained Father
Keep it coming 🙏

[hiimdominic]

Wow! I love this video. I am currently trying to better equipt my self with the word of god. I get asked questions sometimes that I haven't been able to answer until about this year. I have been studying hard to learn as much as I can about my Roman Catholic faith.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ! 🙏

The three pillars of the Church is Sacred Scripture, Apostolic Tradition, and the Magistarium one is not greater or less than the other.

[AllanKoayTC]

there were thousands and thousands of Christians long before there was ever a Bible. so that alone proves that sola scriptura is not a viable doctrine, but Apostolic tradition and succession goes hand in hand with the Bible.

Thank you Father Chris for this clarification and history ..

[marcihf]

Thank you Father. Hope you and everyone watching is having a great evening.

Also, Jesus started a church, through the Apostles before there ever was a holy book (Christian Bible.) Our early church fathers all had an important role in why we are Christians today, and I am so grateful for them for persevering in a time of martyrdom and religious persecution. By reading what they taught and wrote about in the first century and beyond, it all points to and can be explained by the Catholic Church.

Father Alar, you are changing my life ❤

Stop justifying the many mistakes of the institution and return the the actual works of the church. As a catholic im sorry for all the mistakes we have made and thank God for helping us return to the narrow path.
