Catholic Perspective on Paul

How do we understand Paul's traditional view of matrimony in the 21st century?

Was Paul a Catholic priest? Yes, he refers to his "priestly ministry" in Romans 15:15-16. He adminstered the sacraments, called himself a "steward of the mysteries", and he was even celibate! Join us as we look at the priestly language in Paul's Epistles.

Join us as we examine the origin of the Eucharist in Old Testament typology. Saint Paul deeply understood this continuity and speaks of the Lord's Supper and the "table of the Lord" with sacrificial language. We'll also take a look at how the Council of Trent examined specific passages in the epistles of Paul with respect to transubstantiation and the Real Presence.

“Are you a born again Christian?”

Together we examine what Paul taught about being “born again” in the context of the sacrament of baptism - as the Apostle calls it “the washing of regeneration” (Titus 3:5). We also find in Paul the doctrine of original sin, the custom of infant baptism, and also the relationship of the sacrament of baptism to the sacrament of confirmation. Join us as we plow through about 25 Scriptural passages in the works of Saint Paul as they touch upon the sacraments of baptism and confirmation.

Did Paul did teach that salvation entails faith alone?
