Beschrijving

This episode explores two approaches to making moral decisions. When we make a choice to comply with the moral law, do we do so out of a sense of obligation, such as to avoid some type of punishment? Or, on the other hand, do we do so because we desire to choose what is truly good for the sake of goodness itself? That’s what we’ll be talking about today.

26-Where is Purgatory in the Bible?

Hey everyone. Thanks for being here and listening to the show. The voice of the person you heard at the beginning is Mike Winger, a Protestant Christian. This episode discusses a video Mike Winger recorded on his YouTube channel. Mike seems to be a sincere Christian who loves Jesus and loves the Bible—so that’s great. I decided to respond to his video because some of the claims he makes are fairly common, and he has a large YouTube channel with over a million subscribers. In his video, he claims that the Catholic doctrine of purgatory is not found in the Bible, at least not in a sufficient way which allows for belief in purgatory. Throughout this episode, we’ll listen to some clips from Mike’s video, and I’ll offer some responses. I’ll also link to his video in the episode notes in case you want to watch it for yourself.

24-Responding to Wes Huff's Claims About Why He is Not Catholic

Recently Wes Huff made a YouTube video giving six reasons for why he remains a convictional Protestant and favors Protestantism over Catholicism. This episode interacts with his video, and explores one of the reasons Wes gave for why he favors Protestantism, which is his claim that scripture is the sole infallible authority on Christian faith and practice.
