Session 29: Matthew 25 - “Whatsoever you do.....”

 Key Points:

God has given ALL of us talents to be used for the benefit of the Kingdom.  What we don’t use, we’ll lose.  (Just as we do physically by not exercising.) Check yourself with verse 40.  What are you doing for/to others who need help?
Many of those are not easy to love.  We love them not because they are “lovable”, but because Christ loves us so much, that he gave everything, (Our life, and  His life!)for us.
We’re all brothers and sisters in God’s family.  Nothing pleases a good father more than to see his children care for one another. You can’t say you love God without showing love for all others.  (You can’t say “It’s Jesus and me, and the hell with thee!)

About this Podcast

(Note: This blog is a supplement to the "Catholic Doctrine Bible Study" Podcast. The podcase is available for both iOS and Android) All Christians should want a closer relationship with God.  Toward that end, all Christians should read the Bible!  But there are so many conflicting interpretations that Bible study can be confusing if not disheartening.  Which church, if any, has the God-given authority to interpret the Bible? (Listen to Session 1, if no other,  to see why there can only be one answer to that question.) In this study, you will see the doctrines of the Catholic Church come alive as we go through each book of the entire Bible from a uniquely Catholic perspective. As we come across passages where there are differences in interpretation between the Catholic Church and other groups,  we will point them out, and show why the Catholic Church, the one Church founded by Christ, is the one you can rely on for the Fullness of Truth. The sessions are filled w...

Session 32: Matthew 26:31-68 - Peter’s Denial Foretold, Jesus’ Agony, Judas’ Betrayal, Jesus’ Arrest and Night Trial

  Key Points: We ALL deny Jesus, just as Peter did, every time we sin.  Yet, we too can seek and be given forgiveness. We ALL have our own “Gethsemane Moments” in this life....we can choose to become BITTER or BETTER (our relationship to God) through them. Jesus was no mere rabbi. (Teacher) Only three possibilities:  He was the biggest liar ever, He was the craziest man ever, or He was the only begotten Son of God.

Session 45: John 1 v 6-18 Belief defined & Word Became Flesh controversy

  Key Points: What does it mean to “believe” to the Catholic Church? Why do the heresies spawned by the phrase “Word became flesh” point to the need for the Catholic Church?” “Belief” is much more than an intellectual assent.  It is giving one’s self over in trust and action.  (“Wheelbarrow” story.) Three heresies were spawned by three consecutive words in John 1:14.  We needed the Church (the only Church Christ started, gave the power to “bind and loose” to,  gave the Holy Spirit to guide it into all truth) to eliminate the confusion as to who Christ is....and the confusion that still exists today.   (See 2Peter1:20 regarding personal interpretation of Scripture.  We must read Scripture through the eyes of the Church.)
