️ May the Christ God bless you! ️ I came across a video of a street apologetic with a protestant background Vocab Malone. He criticizes eastern orthodoxy. But I think his critique is more based on his lack of understanding of our theology and conservatism. Here is what I wrote to him on YouTube...

Whenever there is talk on Anglo-Catholicism Vs Evangelicalism, you often hear or read that one emphasises the Catholic nature of the Anglican church and the other emphasises the Protestant nature, but can (or are) Anglo-Catholics still considered Protestants? Do AC's see themselves as Protestant...

Thought this might make for some interesting discussion / opinions. Which Protestant Church / Group is the most Catholic? And why? In other words, which one comes closest to Catholic teaching or practice?

I've been growing up in Northern Europe, so as I was faced with conversion from Buddhism into Christianity I eventually met other Christians that told me of Christianity in a distinct Protestant flavor, but I didn't ever feel I was met with a God that first demanded of me to choose between one...

I'm a Buddhist, but I'm curiously drawn to reading the Bible and feel a certain comfort in reading and holding it. In Buddhism we do have different schools and styles, but for the most part, we respect each others denominations and see them all as valid. I find Christians seem to have much...

Does regeneration precede faith, or does faith precede regeneration? My position is that they occur together spontaneously, yet if you were to find an order it would be first regeneration then faith. I understand the moment of our conversion as the quickening of the soul, by the sole power of...

Some kid committed suicide and had a funeral in a catholic church. Apparently the priest preached against suicide, indicating that the decedent wasn't in Heaven as a result. His parents have now sued the church claiming emotional distress and such. Here are my thoughts. First of all, the...

Hi, I'm a fervent christian catholic and I've recently started a new youtube channel expose the lies against the Church of Jesus Christ. A few years ago I was tested in my faith in Jesus and I began to look at the offers from protestant denominations.. I investigated their claims on...

The traditional Catholic, Brother Peter Dimond of the Most Holy Family Monastery, called into this Saturday's "reason and theology" LIVE YouTube show to confront Dr Robert Fastiggi on his claim that protestants and the orthodox are within the body of Christ. Br Peter enters the discussion at...

Yes, I know that this has been already suggested. I think it should be suggested again. The famous 'five solas' unites all Protestant traditions, and I think this is what should single out that forum from the others. Simply categorizing us as Non-Denomination is not enough, since many other...

I was talking to a Roman Catholic the other day and I felt myself getting annoyed because this person was telling me things about Revelations that are wrong. For example, saying that the book of Revelations is what the Catholic mass is based on? What? I left behind the Catholic faith. I...

I keep leaving and returning and leaving and returning to this Forum. This time however, I don't want to get advice from only one specific group at a time. I am very open to advice from any Christian who could help me here. I don't know what I am doing and have honestly been having an identity...

I am aware a lot of people do not know what it is, so here is the very short story. At the Council of Constantinople 381 the Nicene Creed was established. At the Council of Ephesus in 435 anathemas we declared against those who added to or took away from the Creed At the Council of Chalcedon in...

From a recently mentioned article: Here’s Proof That Not Every Protestant Doctrine is Biblical "Yet a curious double standard seems to be in play here, whether intended or not. The New Testament never mentions a host of things that Protestants of various stripes believe in. For example, it...

A lot of people are against the religion, and honestly I don't really know why. For as much as I've looked into it, it is still a religion like any other, still Christian even, and doesn't seem to raise a red flag for me. My boyfriend of two years is Mormon and I am a Protestant Christian...

"One out of every 10 Americans is an ex-Catholic. If they were a separate denomination, they would be the third-largest denomination in the United States, after Catholics and Baptists. One of three people who were raised Catholic no longer identifies as Catholic." At least half of those leaving...
