Questions Covered:
3:00 – Catholics often critique sola scriptura by saying it blocks a Protestant from having an infallible testimony upon which they can base their belief that the Bible consists of 66 books, nothing more and nothing less. But Protestants counter that Jesus often held the Jews accountable to their scriptures even though they didn’t have infallible declarations of their canon. How do we respond to that?
12:46 – I’m an Eastern Rite Catholic. Every year in Holy Week we receive the sacrament of the anointing of the sick. My Roman Rite friends have said if you can only receive it if you are seriously ill. They’ve also said it can wipe away mortal sin. But that is not my understanding. Which is true?
22:00 – How can there never be instances where lying is okay?
34:55 – I’m having trouble with the doctrine of eternal conscious torment.
45:53 – Why do we have to accept the teaching of the magisterium even when it’s not infallible?
52:23 – what do you think of equivocation?

Questions Covered:
01:34 – Who received the first eucharist? Which scripture is the best to show as evidence for the real presence?
12:23 – How do we respond when a Catholic says they are getting more out of going to a Protestant church? How do we bring them back?
22:49 – How is the death penalty an immoral thing, and why is it changed for the first time in history?
37:30 – What is the response to the justification that the reformation is valid because the reformers followed the example of the apostles being kicked out of the temple?
42:05 – I see a lot of inconsistencies in the Catholic Church. I have an issue because if Doctrine can change how can I agree with what will change in the future?
51:24 – Why do Catholics pray the hail mary so much during the rosary? Isn’t it against scripture?

Questions Covered:
13:13 – How do we figure out the canon? Are the books self attesting. Why does the Holy Spirit give infallibility to the Church but the Holy Spirit does not give infallibility to individuals?
20:31 – I’m entering into the Church and recently met my bishop. Are traditions like kissing the bishop’s ring still necessary? Why or why not?
31:50 – How do I explain the Catholic approach to James 2 to Protestants?
42:11 – What are our areas of disagreement apart from Sola Scriptura?
49:11 – What does it mean when it says all scripture in 2 Timothy 3:16-17?
