Trent Horn’s analysis of the debate between Candace Owens and Andrew Wilson seems to be very good. I never had time to investigate her (Candace) nor Andrew Wilson (what I have seen, is that he just cusses and talks vulgar … Continue reading
This Roman Catholic had a total meltdown in anger; and what he said revealed a lot in what they really want – they want to return to the days when Roman Catholicism was in charge of society with the state … Continue reading
Timothy Kauffman does a good job of showing the problem of interpreting Irenaeus (died around 200-202 AD) statements about baptism as the way Roman Catholicism understands – that the ceremony in water and saying the right words over the person … Continue reading
Someone asked about 2 Timothy 3:16-17, and the Roman Catholic argument that it only includes the OT, as v. 15 is clearly about the OT sacred Scriptures that Timothy learned as a child. John Henry Newman also uses this argument … Continue reading
Shamoun claims that the “canon argument” is the achilles heel of Protestantism. No it is not. Shamoun needs to read Michael Kruger’s two books on the canon. “Canon Revisited” and “The Question of Canon”. See other articles I have written … Continue reading
Many people don’t like Reformed Theology or Calvinism, the teaching about God’s Sovereignty- that God has ordained (decided beforehand) to allow evil to enter the world and for evil and sin and suffering to take place. They don’t like Predestination … Continue reading
I am only talking about the first 22 minutes of this video. (don’t have time for more of that) Sam Shamoun admits that Trent Dougherty’s explosion in anger and cursing, etc. is a defeater for the Roman Catholic side of … Continue reading
I wrote this years ago, in 2013, over at Beggar’s All blog. I really appreciate James Swan, and him letting me blog there for years; and his work on really detailed aspects of Luther and Calvin and his striving for … Continue reading
Good analysis of church history in relationship to the doctrine of justification by faith alone. I am impressed with this guy’s (says his name is Miles) channel, “Canon and Creed” about “Reformed Catholicism” (Reformed Catholicity – universal Christianity that is … Continue reading
The recent hot topic on social media, twitter/X and You Tube discussions and debates is about the Roman Catholic Vatican 2 position that says that Muslims worship the same God as Christians do. Well, Biblically, Vatican 2 is just wrong. … Continue reading
Since I don’t know how to do videos or editing or clips, Michael Lofton has provided a lot of clips that expose Sam Shamoun’s wicked and evil behavior – sinful anger, dirty talking, ad hominem methods, bullying, manipulation, bombastic bravado, … Continue reading
Michael Lofton just destroyed Roman Catholicism’s claim of being true and the one true church. What an amazing bunch of false-hood! Not only does the Vatican 2 documents and post Vatican 2 theology claim that Muslims worship the same God … Continue reading
“Papalism” or “Sola Ecclesia” (The Roman Church has the final ultimate say on everything.) The Eastern Orthodox have their version of “Sola Ecclesia” also – (Their own Church Councils have the final say, even after the first 7 and their … Continue reading
The claim of venerating icons being apostolic (by both EO & RC) is so obviously wrong that it seems that Nicea 2 (787 AD) is one of the clearest examples of a massive mistake in doctrine that the universal church … Continue reading
Thank you brother Marlon Wilson (of the Gospel Truth You Tube channel) for doing this video (with clips from a video of Ruslan and EO apologist Jay Dyer)! (see the video at the end) Sam Shamoun has been doing this … Continue reading
Jeremiah Notier (“The Apologetic Dog”) and Tony Costa (Toronto Apologetics) discuss several passages in the early church fathers on baptism and show that ex opere operato baptismal regeneration was not the view of the early church. I have written on … Continue reading
In the last 3 minutes, Ruslan rightly calls out Sam Shamoun for his sinful behavior. – He is full of sinful anger, cursing, name-calling, unhinged, bellicose, bombastic, bullying, manipulative. Click on the category of “Sam Shamoun” and you can read … Continue reading
My, how time flys! I meant to write a response to this along time ago, but have not found the time to be organized until now. One can see my comments in the You Tube com box and Dr. Ortlund’s … Continue reading
Recently, they had 2 debates: On Sola Scriptura and on Purgatory I will be commenting more on these later, as time allows. Several points that stood out in the Sola Scriptura debate. 1. Trent did not emphasize his previous emphasis … Continue reading
Irenæus (wrote around 180-202 AD) says Jesus opened Mary’s womb (aperians vulvam, Against Heresies 4:33:11), a “denial of virginity in partu” (during birth) – Also, Against Heresies 3:21:10 and 3:22:4 the way he compares to creation’s ground (as yet, virgin … Continue reading
Joshua Charles thinks that disagreements over baptism, the Lord’s supper, and church government are a problem for Protestants. Also, everyone cannot be a scholar. That is true, but that seems to be a smoke-screen for “just trust us” (the Roman … Continue reading
The 6 minute Case for Sola Scriptura – that Scripture alone is the only infallible rule of faith and practice – that Scripture is the final court of appeals, above traditions, councils, creeds, bishops and Popes in church history. Note: … Continue reading
Sam Shamoun and William Albrecht are caught mis-understanding the argument that Dr. James White was making about Jerome’s reason and argumentation for the Perpetual Virginity of Mary. They accuse Dr. White of lying, thereby slandering him. All Dr. White was saying was … Continue reading
See the book: You can find it at various sellers, including Amazon. This book is very insightful. Especially the beginning that gives more background on John Henry Newman. His infamous statement and claim: ”To be deep in history is to cease to be … Continue reading
Augustine, On Baptism Against the Donatists – Book 2, Chapter 3, 4 . . . . But who can fail to be aware that the sacred canon of Scripture, both of the Old and New Testament, is confined within its … Continue reading
Gavin Ortlund does an excellent job of showing how the dogma of the Bodily Assumption of Mary is wrong and not early in church history, and, in 1950, for the Pope to make it a dogma on pain of anathema … Continue reading
This is from an online written debate on Oral Tradition at Green Bagins, from 2010. Comment # 26 by David T. King, who has done lots of work in apologetics vs. Roman Catholicism. (and Co-Author with William Webster, of the … Continue reading
Protestants can hold to the promise of Matthew 16:18 and Ephesians 3:21, without falling for the typical historical arguments that Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox make about “where is, or are the true apostolic church” or churches ? ; or … Continue reading
Originally posted on Apologetics and Agape:
The Roman Catholic doctrine of Purgatory is thoroughly analyzed from Scripture and Church history and refuted. (by Keith Thompson) Addendum: April 24, 2021 – apparently, Keith Thompson has taken down this video. That is…
