He spoke a nice message, but he did mention Mortal sin and venal sin. In that lays the problem the the scribes and Pharisees faced. By in their own strength determining just how close can you walk the fence without rubbing it. Read the 7th chapter of Mark 7:1-3
Grace and forgiveness coves a multitude of sins 1 Peter 4:7-8 I would say this man does a very good job of navigating threw the straining of gnats found in the over all teaching of the catholic church, that would seek to regulate every aspect of an other mans life. The freedom in Christ is lost, and comes under the direction and authority of men at that point it no longer lives as Christ would would have it grow, but becomes the product of men. Let every man determine what is the Lords will, for he shall stand or fall on his own. Romans 14:4
What I'm getting at is the difference between grace and obedience. The Lord will make know the obedience He expects from you and will place it upon your heart.
Before I watch and decide to comment. I'd like to take a moment to talk. You know If I edited out the word mortal and venal and did a blind survey of both catholic and protestants I assure you legalistic Catholics and protestants alike will take issue. I liked the, do as you would have done unto yourself message. But for us who are more mature it goes deeper. Many both C and P would accept it as sound doctrine. As a matter of fact technically he could be found to be in heresy against C church doctrine if someone wanted to push the issue, By not exactly presenting the catechism's explicit teaching in answering the boy.
Here's the rub
I can tolerate but would not partake of many of your practices. Kneeling, prayers to Mary ect ect but you insist they are pure of heart, in that I can not judge or comment. There is only one thing that I can't tolerate from your church, that is proclaiming salvation is only found in the CC.
That the works of the HS can only be from the CC. All the other things I can accept and with the grace given to me extend that same grace to you though I choose to not partake with you. I'm not the judge of another mans heart, there is only one that can justly know such things.

None of this has anything to do with the videos, and you are dead wrong about the CC and salvation. CCC817, 818, 819 explains.

I'm sorry but I have to ask...Has the body of Christ sunk so low and gotten so far off track that this really needs to be a topic of discussion at a gathering?
