Questions Covered:
04:24 – How is the Eucharist not cannibalism?
15:30 – I think the Pentecostal belief in the real movement of the Holy Spirit within the community was pretty convincing. What is the best response to this?
22:31 – How do I answer the following: The Catholic argument that we need an infallible interpreter for scripture would not work because then you would need an infallible interpreter of the infallible interpreter and so on.
37:08 – For Catholics almost anything can be a mortal sin but for Jesus there is one mortal sin.
43:00 – What was lacking in Jesus that made the Jews reject Jesus as the Messiah in the early church?

Questions Covered:
06:40 – In support of the belief that Mary was a Perpetual virgin, Catholics appeal to Luke 1:34 where Mary asks Gabriel how she’s going to conceive a child since she doesn’t “know man,” the implication being she hasn’t had sexual relations with Joseph. But some Protestants counter that Mary asked this because she wasn’t yet married to Joseph. How do we respond?
13:29 – Regarding Jesus’ sacrifice, did he fulfill all Mosaic sacrificial offerings? Or just specific offerings?
21:19 – Is baptism actually the baptism of the holy spirit, not that of water, and is the evidence speaking in tongues?
29:49 – Were Mary and Joseph actually married but just hadn’t consummated it?
41:35 – Mark 9:38-41 is the best argument for Protestantism.
51:15 – What is the connection between the coronation and the bodily assumption?

Questions Covered:
01:45 – Why do Catholics believe we are born again at baptism, and how do we answer Protestants who deny it?
06:50 – I’m a convert and I have family who are SSPX and they say that its wrong for me to go to my church. How do I navigate this and why do they believe this?
13:51 – What do Catholics believe about evangelism? I’m about to be confirmed and am wondering what God will expect of me.
20:53 – 1 Peter 3:21 says baptism now saves you. But it seems like the later part of that verse would contradict the Catholic view of baptismal regeneration.
29:25 – I’m married and considering becoming a permanent deacon. I am too young for the program now, but what can I do to form myself now before I am eligible for the program at age 35?
33:47 – Why is artificial insemination a sin?
41:15 – John 3:5 says nobody can enter the kingdom of heaven unless they are born of water and the spirit. How does this square with Genesis 2:4-7, which seems to describe a baptism of Adam. Adam was already in the kingdom, so why would he need baptism?
46:20 – Why does the Catholic Church practice infant baptism? Shouldn’t it be later like with confirmation?

Questions Covered:
03:25 – Why do Catholics believe Luke 1:34 supports Mary’s perpetual virginity?
13:02 – Why believe in Eucharistic miracles and Marian apparitions when some of them can be proven to be false?
20:50 – Why do people constantly refer to our pope as liberal or conservative instead of just a faithful Catholic? Why do popes make comments that cause controversy or cause confusion?
32:08 – I was wondering if I need an annulment since I’m getting divorced? Why would I need it?
35:28 – Why do we pray to the saints and how can I help my wife see this using the bible?
45:15 – Why should we find comfort in the Church being right if it appears to be conforming to political correctness?
