Welcome to the Council of Trend Podcast, a production of Catholic Answers.

Hey everyone, welcome to the Council of Trend Podcast.

I'm your host, Catholic Apologist, Trent Horn.

And today I want to talk about the allegedly easy way to get saved, at least according

to some Protestants.

But before I do that, please consider doing a definitely easy good work by liking this

video, subscribing to our channel.

That way you don't miss any of our great content.

All right, so when I watch Protestant Apologists, especially popular evangelicals, often

are the claim that true biblical Christianity presents a simple way to be saved, whereas

Catholicism makes salvation overly complicated.

Here's a few examples.

When you look at the Roman Catholic plan of salvation, it is a salvation of works and

sacraments.

Along the way, however, they can commit these small sins, venial sins, which plunges

them back down, and heaven forbid they commit a mortal sin, which knocks them completely

off the plan of salvation.

And he must now receive sacraments.

He must confess his sins to a priest, which is the sacrament of penance.

And then he must be re-justified by doing good works, by doing penance.

And once he is re-justified, then he must maintain his salvation through sacraments.

The Bible teaches.
