Podcasts about Sola scriptura

In this week's episode, Phil EuBank sits down with Pastor Matt Summers to dive into Sunday's message, The System of Merit. Framing Roman Catholicism as our theological parent in the Christian family tree, they explore how a system built on human merit, sacraments, and tradition can subtly turn faith into a tollbooth or a self-funded spiritual insurance policy. Together, Phil and Matt discuss the core contrasts of the Protestant Reformation, specifically Sola Scriptura (Scripture alone) and salvation by grace alone through faith alone. Drawing from Phil's childhood friendship with a local priest named Father Michael, they highlight the vital need to hold deep conviction without losing the humble, loving posture of Jesus. They also turn the mirror on Protestant culture, exposing the invisible performance tolls we often pay when we try to earn God's love or blame ourselves during life's hardships.

Eastern Orthodoxy appeals to many evangelicals because of its claims to ancient Christianity, historic continuity, liturgical beauty, and authoritative tradition. Yet its claims raise a fundamental question: When Scripture and tradition conflict, which one has the final word? Dave Jenkins is joined by Samuel Farag, author of Eastern Orthodoxy Through the Lens of Sola Scriptura, to examine the beliefs and theological structure of Eastern Orthodoxy according to the Word of God. They discuss the Orthodox understanding of Holy Tradition, the authority claimed for the church and ecumenical councils, icon veneration, teachings concerning Mary, monasticism, salvation, and the sufficiency of Scripture. They also explain why Christians should study church history while keeping every tradition, confession, and council subordinate to the final authority of God's Word. The episode concludes with practical encouragement for Christians speaking with friends and family members who are exploring Eastern Orthodoxy. Believers must define theological terms carefully, understand what the Orthodox Church officially teaches, remain prayerful, and proclaim the biblical gospel with clarity and compassion.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend theologian, Bible scholar, and former Protestant pastor Dr. John Bergsma to dig into one of the most nefarious misconceptions about the Catholic Church versus Protestantism and, cordially, share some of his shocking conclusions. Is Protestantism really more "Biblical" than Catholicism? Dr. Bergsma says, no. On topics of how the Church is organized, what worship looks like, what Jesus taught, how authority is passed on, and how decisions and interpretations of Scripture are made Dr. Bergsma shows, over and over again, that the Catholic Church is more closely aligned to Scripture than Protestantism at its very core.This is a truly fantastic episode!For more from Dr. Bergsma visit his website.

Join the show with a TEXT here!My local church has given me the privilege of teaching Sunday school in light of our most recent sermon series through the book of Jude. Jude's epistle exposes the patterns and tactics of false teachers, urging believers to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints.In that same spirit, our church aims to guard the flock and equip them with biblical clarity about groups that claim Christian identity while departing from the gospel. This Sunday school series walks through several movements and teachings that align themselves with Christianity but diverge from historic, apostolic truth.Today, we'll be examining Eastern Orthodoxy, its claims, its distinctives, and how Scripture calls us to evaluate every doctrine. Hope you enjoy.

Picture a World Cup final with no referee — both teams disqualifying each other's players, every goal disputed, chaos taking over. Someone has to make the final call. But who decides the meaning of Scripture? It's a question that cuts to the heart of one of Protestantism's oldest principles: sola scriptura. And the objections are sharper than you might expect. If Scripture never actually says "Scripture alone," doesn't the whole idea collapse on itself? And didn't the church decide which books made the Bible — meaning the church came first? This article takes those challenges seriously. Listen in for some surprising answers.

Join the show with a TEXT here!In today's episode, we continue our deep‑dive review of last week's debate. Pressing further into the kinds of arguments Eastern Orthodox apologists often rely on when biblical support is thin or absent. You'll get a clear, structured look at why these arguments feel so foreign to many Christians, how they can unsettle people who've never encountered them, and what's actually driving the logic beneath Eastern Orthodox argumentation. Most importantly, we'll walk through how Scripture equips us to respond faithfully, confidently, and charitably, because God's Word is living and active and never returns void.Before jumping into the debate review, we'll take a moment to address the increasingly unhealthy state of Eastern Orthodox interactions online. We'll talk honestly about how certain communication patterns, dismissiveness, hostility, and rhetorical posturing, shut down real conversation and breed resentment toward the Church. If you've ever engaged with EO communities online, you've likely seen this firsthand, and it's something that must be called out for the sake of Christ's witness.If you're ready for another round of careful study, debate analysis, and Scripture‑centered clarity, grab your Bible and strap in. This episode is all about truth, discernment, and engaging difficult conversations with confidence rooted in God's Word.

Join the show with a TEXT here!When your priest can't answer the most basic question—“What is the Gospel?”—it's time to run. Today we take a closer look at yet another Eastern Orthodox voice, but this time it's not a layperson… it's a priest who still cannot give a clear, biblical answer. And wait until you hear what he actually says.We'll unpack why this question is consistently dodged, what's really going on beneath the surface, and what the true Gospel actually is according to Scripture—not tradition, not speculation, not philosophical fog.On top of that, we'll walk through a recently posted debate on what the true church is. I'll break down the main arguments presented by the Eastern Orthodox participant and evaluate whether they hold up—or whether they're just polished evasions dressed up as theology. Expect to see abuses of Scripture, equivocation, category errors, and plenty of posturing against what the Bible plainly teaches.If that sounds like your kind of deep dive, grab your Bible and a snack. Let's get into it.

Join the show with a TEXT here!You've heard it before: “That's just your interpretation.” But is that a meaningful reply, or simply a way to dodge what Scripture actually says? This common objection exposes a deep divide between how Bible‑believing Christians approach the text and how other groups often impose meaning onto the text rather than drawing meaning from it.In today's episode, we tackle this objection head‑on. We'll walk through how to handle it faithfully, how to approach controversial passages with accuracy and humility, and why this matters for the health of the church. We'll also examine the kinds of “converts” these groups tend to produce, and why so many of them struggle to engage with the gospel or the broader witness of Scripture.This is a delicate but crucial topic. Many are being pulled into these groups by confident claims and persuasive rhetoric, and our aim is to “save others by snatching them out of the fire” (Jude 23) by exposing the deficiencies clearly and biblically.So grab your Bible, settle in, and let's dive deep into truth together.

Sola Scriptura: A Theological Debate The Bible never says Scripture is the sole authority of the Christian faith, and the Latin proves it. In this episode, we examine three texts from St. Paul and St. Peter and let the grammar do the work. No philosophical argument. No circular reasoning. Just the words themselves, in the language the Church has always read them. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ TIMESTAMPS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 - Introduction: The question underneath every Protestant-Catholic divide 0:30 - Why this approach is different: grammar, not argument 1:00 - 2 Thessalonians 2:15, Tenete traditiones: spoken word and letter as equals 2:00 - 1 Timothy 3:15, Columna et firmamentum: the Church as pillar of truth 3:00 - The verse where Paul could have said "Scripture" and didn't 3:30 - Subscribe/support note 3:45 - 2 Peter 1:20, Propria interpretazione: Peter forecloses private reading 4:30 - What the three anchors do together 5:00 - Patreon Deep Dive: the second-century witness 5:20 - Closing prayers: Pater Noster, Ave Maria, Gloria Patri   The Patreon-Only Deep Dive goes further, a second-century witness trained by a man who knew St. John names the exact principle that makes sola scriptura impossible, and calls it the rule of truth. He says the apostles handed it down before they wrote a single letter.

Valete (Goodbye)   This video explores the concept of biblical authority within Christianity, specifically addressing the divide between Protestant and Catholic beliefs. We examine why the Bible does not explicitly state scripture is the sole authority, and how Latin texts provide additional insight. The discussion sheds light on the differences between "sola scriptura" and the Catholic view, offering a deeper understanding of the Christian theology at play. You will also see familiar Latin prayers such as Pater Noster, Ave Maria, and Gloria Patri.

Catholic apologists often insist, “Jesus Did Not Leave Us a Bible; He Left Us a Church.” Such assertions are intended to cancel sole dependency on the Bible as the standard of acceptable Christian doctrines, practices, and traditions. Such a claim is also intended to increase trust in church traditions and the rulings of church hierarchy, even if they are not found in the Bible. Is this view right? Is it safe? Is it pleasing to God?Comparative religion website: www.thetruelight.net Ministry website: www.shreveministries.org The Catholic Project website: http://www.toCatholicswithlove.org (English & Spanish) Video channel: www.YouTube.com/mikeshreveministries All audio-podcasts are shared in a video format on our YouTube channel.

Join the show with a TEXT here!Last time on the podcast, we examined a deeply concerning ecumenical exchange between Gavin Ortlund and Trent Horn. We didn't get to everything in that video, so today we're wrapping up by addressing the most critical points of compromise in their dialogue, and why these kinds of conversations only confuse people, muddy the waters, and blur what is actually very simple: the gospel truth.In this episode, we'll break down where the discussion went off the rails, why these attempts at “unity” often create more fog than clarity, and how we can pursue real progress in conversations with Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholics without compromising the Gospel or the Bible's definition of first‑degree issues.There's a lot to cover and not much time, so strap in, enjoy the episode, and don't forget to share and leave a comment to join the conversation.

The second hour, we get down to the nitty gritty of the Nicene Creed and Sola Scriptura. Do they fit like a hand and glove or are they like oil and water?

Join the show with a TEXT here!Ecclesial Anxiety, a phrase gaining traction as more people exploring Christianity wrestle with uncertainty about which church truly holds the gospel. Questions abound: Who can really be saved? Which church preserves the right traditions and theology? In today's episode, we dig into the root of this confusion. When ecumenical dialogue turns into compromise, the inevitable question arises: “What is a Christian?” Featuring a discussion between Trent Horn (Catholic) and Gavin Ortlund (Protestant), we examine how their attempt to affirm one another as brothers in faith—while sidestepping their exclusive claims—creates theological fog instead of clarity.It's time to cut through the cloudy talking points and polished rhetoric to uncover what Scripture actually says defines a Christian, not merely in name, but in reality!

They offer a range of pastoral studies for students of all backgrounds to serve your growth in ministry, from a Bachelor's to a Doctor of Ministry.To apply, go to grimkeseminary.org and use the code “christoverall” to have your application fee waived.Resources to Click“The Challenges of Eastern Orthodoxy: Comparing Evangelical and Eastern Orthodox Theology” – Tony Costa“Frank Schaeffer, Former Evangelical Leader, is a Self-Declared Atheist Who Believes in God” – Huffington Post“'The Bible Answer Man' Turns East: An Unlikely Conversion” – Erwin Lutzer“Young Men Leaving Traditional Churches for ‘Masculine' Orthodox Christianity in Droves” – Rikki Schlott“Evangelical Pastors and the Challenge of Eastern Orthdoxy” – Scott Hurst and Christian Clement-Schlimm“Reality: Questions regarding the Authenticity of the Sigillion of 1583” – Joshua Schooping“The Sunday of Orthodoxy 2024”“Service of the Small Paraklesis”“Entrance of the Mother of God into the Temple” – Orthodox Christianity“Debatable, Unnecessary, or Essential?

Joe reviews Christopher Cloos’ new argument in favor of Sola Scriptura, the Attribute Inscripturation Thesis (AIT). Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer, and many of you know I recently debated Doug Wilson on Sola Scriptura. If you haven’t seen that debate, you can check it out in the description below. But the debate prompted a lot of good conversations from both sides and one person in particular caught my attention because he offers a brand new argument for Solo Scriptura and for the 66th book Protestant Bible. That person is the Protestant...

A new MP3 sermon from Alpha and Omega Ministries is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Church History Proves the Necessity of Sola Scriptura Subtitle: The Dividing Line 2026 Speaker: Dr. James White Broadcaster: Alpha and Omega Ministries Event: Podcast Date: 4/21/2026 Length: 72 min.

After some comments on a variety of topics at the top of the program, we dove deep into the following citation from Basil the Great, "because the honor paid to the image passes on to the prototype." We looked at the original context and meaning, and then how it was plucked out of that context and used by John of Damascus, and how that then became central to the arguments of the iconophiles at Nicea II, and hence became the basis of "infallible dogma" for both Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. Not an entertaining program, to be sure, but hopefully a helpful one. Tomorrow we will be doing a Zoom call "open phones" program, so join us then!

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by author Traci Rhoades to talk about her remarkable faith journey into the Catholic Church. Traci is a brilliant and insightful writer who I first met as someone exploring the different roots of Christian traditions. When I heard that Traci had, in fact, become Catholic I knew I needed to have her on the show! Traci's story is a fantastic one – and she's a great storyteller. From trying to incorporate the ancient elements of Christianity into her non-denominational church to realizing, ultimately, that those elements can only be rightly found in the most ancient churches, it's a wonderful story of following Christ to the absolute ends of where he leads, and a lovely tale of family and faith, too. For more from Traci visit her website.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.Sign up for our newsletter for my reflections on episodes, behind-the-scenes content, and exclusive contests.To watch this and other episodes please visit (and subscribe to!) our YouTube channel.Please consider financially supporting this show!For more information visit the Patreon page.  All patrons receive access to exclusive content and if you can give $5/mo or more you'll also be entered into monthly draws for fantastic books hand-picked by me.If you'd like to give a one-time donation to The Cordial Catholic, you can visit the PayPal page.Thank you to those already supporting the show!Theme Music: "Splendor (Intro)" by Former Ruins.

Joe’s opening statement in his debate against Doug Wilson on Sola Scriptura. Transcript: Joe: Welcome back to Shameless Popery. I’m Joe Heschmeyer and happy Easter. I suspect many of you are familiar with the Protestant pastor, Doug Wilson. He’s often been described as a Christian nationalist. He recently made the news for arguing that the law shouldn’t permit Catholics to process down the street with images of Mary or with the Eucharist. Clip: Catholic church bells would be okay. Catholic church bells would be okay. But a parade in honor of the Virgin Mary, carrying an...

“What is our authority structure?” This question leads to a discussion on the implications of Sola Scriptura and how Catholics understand authority through both Tradition and Scripture. Other topics include how Catholics respond to 2 Timothy’s assertion about Scripture’s profitability and the significance of 1 Timothy 3:15 regarding the Church as the pillar and foundation of truth. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 03:33 – If Sola Scriptura is Wrong, Then what does our authority structure look like? 13:54 – How do Catholics refute protestant understanding of 2 Tim, All scripture is profitable. 21:00 – 1 Tim 3:15 says the Church is the pillar and foundation. How do protestants get around that scripture? 29:33 – I think another evidence for being against sola scriptura is Satan using scripture to tempt Jesus. What are your thoughts on that? 32:35 – What exactly is Tradition? 42:14 – How do you deal with the objection from protestants about wisdom and not being in their canon but only accept Sola Scriptura?

“How do we respond to sola scriptura?” This question opens a discussion on the challenges of infallible testimony in the context of biblical canon, particularly in light of Protestant perspectives. Other topics include the sacrament of anointing of the sick in Eastern and Roman Rite practices, the morality of lying, and the doctrine of eternal conscious torment. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com 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?

“How do I explain James 2 to Protestants?” This question opens a discussion on the Catholic understanding of faith and works, while also addressing how we determine the canon of Scripture and the role of tradition in the Church. Other topics include the significance of traditions like kissing the bishop’s ring and the implications of 2 Timothy 3:16-17 for interpreting Scripture. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com 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?
