Summary
Patrick welcomes listeners into a swirl of faith questions, from whether God creates souls bound for hell to what really sets the Ethiopian Bible apart. His conversations jump from parish problems in New York to hard-won lessons in marriage, landing on raw moments of confession and the ache to bring loved ones home to Catholic truth. With honest calls and scriptural insights, Patrick threads thought-provoking theology into the candid struggles and hopes of everyday believers.

- Keith - How do Catholics view the Ethiopian Bible? (06:08)

| 0:14.8 | It's the Patrick Madrid Show on Relevant Radio. |
| 0:20.5 | Welcome back to the Patrick Madrid Show. The number is 888 9149149 have a |
| 0:26.6 | note here from Chris who says question on our final destination we agree I think that God is |
| 0:32.2 | omnipotent omnipresent and omniscient yeah we agree on. He is outside our space and time. With that said, |
| 0:39.6 | God therefore knows our choices before we make them and knows our life's outcome before our |
| 0:45.1 | creation as well. He doesn't bias them, but our choices are unknown only to ourselves. Would |
| 0:50.8 | God make a soul to damn them to hell then if he knows all past, present, |
| 0:56.4 | and future on my Odyssey, and that's from Chris. |
| 0:59.3 | Thanks, Chris. |
| 0:59.8 | I appreciate that. |
| 1:00.8 | I don't remember whether or not this is an add-on from an earlier email exchange or if this |
| 1:06.1 | is something different, and you're not the same person who wrote to me earlier. But in any case, |

| 1:34.4 | it would be contrary to his nature as all good. |
| 1:37.6 | And what I mean is that God is all good. |
| 1:40.0 | God is love, as St. John says in the Bible. |
| 1:43.4 | And it's the opposite of loving somebody to create a human being solely for the purpose of damnation. |
| 1:49.4 | That would go contrary to God's nature as all loving and all good, because then he would be the author of evil. |
