Summary

https://youtu.be/NkpOkZ842g4 The infection has gone deep. Case in point...Several years ago I was at a very orthodox Catholic conference on the West Coast. Great talks. Great people. Great event. Then the wheels came off. During the homily at Mass, the priest gave a completely anti-Catholic homily. He didn't do it on purpose, but it was anti-Catholic nonetheless. I was flabbergasted. I turned to a friend seated next to me, and asked, "Are you hearing what I'm hearing?" He nodded, just as frustrated as I was. Later, we proceeded to have a conversation about one of the most misunderstood topics in Christianity - salvation. That friend with whom I spoke so many years ago, Dr. Michael Barber, is my guest on this episode of the Art of Catholic. He wrote a book on this very topic (Salvation: What Every Catholic Needs to Know). And we're about to continue that discussion begun so many years ago. We're going to discuss: The major difference between Catholic and Protestant views on salvationHow exactly the Cross is a revelation of loveWhy the Cross was even necessaryThe role of good works in salvationThe strange relationship between economics and salvationThe big difference between salvation and redemptionThe controversy over the statement - "There is no salvation outside the Church" This is one of those meaty episodes for which the Art of Catholic is well-known. And you're going to love it! God bless! Matthew P.S. Doors re-open to the world's largest online school of Catholic spirituality at the end of summer 2019!
