No. Faith in Christ is more than just intellectual assent. You can’t just say “Christ is the messiah” and stop there. You must submit to the authorities he established to guide the faithful. Come home to the church He established, the Catholic Church.

Is there a place in the Kingdom of God for someone like me—a Jew who believes in Yeshua as the Messiah while fully maintaining Jewish lifestyle and identity? Or do I need to relinquish my Jewishness?

Conservative men believe in God. When we analyze politics and decide what position to take, we look at it through the lens of: “What would God want us to do?”

As for liberal men, sex is their god. When they analyze politics and decide what position to take, they look at it through the lens of: “What do I think will help me get laid?”

Wrath is really a big one for me for sure. Which might be surprising because with people I know, I’m very patient and forgiving. I give a lot of grace to people who are my friends or family, but if I feel like someone is doing something that is harmful to others then I can become very wrathful. Just to use one example, when I’ve seen people leave comments justifying the rape of a young boy by his female teacher because they think the teacher is hot, I have a tendency to wish death on those people because it causes so much anger in me.

The only way I’m dying in the Middle East is if Papa Leo calls for another crusade to retake the Holy Land.

If you’re a non-Catholic who’s discerning Catholicism and you’ve been waiting for a sign to make that leap…consider this your sign.

The Catholic Church is where the fullness of truth is found. It is the Church that Christ Himself established. He wants you to come home.

[The Unapologetic Apologist @TheTradCath]

Too many people try to make their faith fit their political agenda, rather than make their political agenda fit their faith.

They make a political party their god and a church their tool.

You can’t be a Catholic—or any kind of Christian for that matter—and follow Andrew Tate.

That’s it. That’s the tweet.

@taco_talks It’s really funny that you think you know Christ. The fruit you bear is sour and rotten, it’s clear you have no relationship with Christ whatsoever.

@TaylorRMarshall Randy Fine isn’t a Protestant he’s a Jew

In defense of Sola Scriptura, Protestants often claim that scripture interprets itself. But what does scripture actually say?

Acts 8:26-40 tells the story of a man who had obtained some scripture and was reading it without any guidance. When Philip the deacon asked the man if he understood what he was reading, the man said “How can I, unless someone instructs me?” Philip then explained what the scripture meant to him.

This is scripture clearly showing us that it does not interpret itself and that you need to be taught by the church what the proper interpretation of scripture is. Protestants deny this because it undermines Sola Scriptura since, if you need an authority that can provide an infallible interpretation of scripture, then scripture clearly can’t be the only infallible authority.

Antisemitism is wrong. Meaning, hating ethnically Hebrew people for the fact that they are Hebrew. It's never okay to hate someone for innate, immutable characteristics. However:

Opposing the modern nation state of Israel is not antisemitism.

Opposing the teachings and practices of rabbinical, talmudic Judaism is not antisemitism.

Opposing the immoral actions of ethnic, secular Hebrews influencing geopolitics is not antisemitism.

The only things that are truly antisemitic are things that boil down to hating Hebrew people simply because they're Hebrew. More often than not, accusations of antisemitism are just an attempt to shut down discourse from voices that are disfavored by the political elite.

3. If Sola Scriptura is true, then when exactly did it become true? It couldn’t have been true in 34 AD when the only scripture that existed was the Old Testament, because then Christianity wouldn’t be true. Did it become true in 96 AD when the last book of the New Testament was finished? Does that mean up until that point scripture was fallible? When exactly did it become true?

[The Unapologetic Apologist @TheTradCath]

Here are 3 questions regarding Sola Scriptura that I’ve yet to hear a good answer for from Protestants. A thread 🧵🪡

[The Unapologetic Apologist @TheTradCath]

2. If Sola Scriptura is the operating principle for Christians established by Christ, then what did the earliest Christians do for the first 15 years of the faith? Because the earliest book of the New Testament is Galatians and that wasn’t even written until 48 AD at the earliest, 15 years after Jesus’s ascension. Did Christians have no infallible authority for the first 15 years of Christianity and they were allowed to believe whatever they want?
