Wes Huff has nearly a million YouTube subscribers and six reasons he won't become Catholic. In Part 2 of their response, Kenny Burchard and Dave Armstrong tackle two of his biggest objections: the Catholic Mass as sacrifice, and the development of doctrine. On the Mass, they show from Hebrews and Revelation that Jesus is worshipped in heaven as the slain Lamb — and the Mass is the earthly participation in that timeless heavenly liturgy. On the development of doctrine, they argue that a living Church, like a living person, grows in its ability to articulate what it has always believed — without becoming something it wasn't. Neither objection holds up under biblical and theological scrutiny. Download the free resource links in the description and follow along.
