Product Description
A Compendium of Scripture verses, topically arranged and easy to use, which illustrate the scriptural affirmation of Catholic teachings-particularly those that Catholics and Protestants traditionally dispute. This book provides the actual biblical texts supporting 55 key topics including apostolic successon, intercessory prayer, indulgences, the Holy Eucharist, confession and many more. While the Catholic Church has never held to the doctrine that the Bible ought to be our sole authority of faith, anyone who does hold to that belief will have difficulty denying the Church’s teachings, since the Bible testifies to them so compellingly. This book is intended to help Bible-loving Catholics-and Protestants discover how, and where.
What a great way to find references in scripture regarding Catholic answers concerning specific topics such as papal infallibility, church authority, free will, divorce, sin, baptism, mass, and others.
Every Catholic should have this reference tool.
For those of us who have Bibles filled with cross-references and many colors of ink, this is a great, slim guide that can be carried or picked up any time you need to find a distinctively Catholic topic in Scripture in a jiffy. Greg Oatis has done a great service by compiling and publishing this!
