8. What are some fundamental errors in Roman Catholicism?

See below for a longer description:
In this episode of Scripture in Black and White, hosts Anthony Walker and Bobby Harrington tackle the topic of tribulation, both in general Christian terms and specifically in relation to end times prophecy as outlined in the Bible. They begin by reflecting on the challenges that come with following Jesus—loss of friendships, hardships, and even hatred, not for actions but simply for the association with Him.
They kick off by expressing gratitude for the audience's engagement and the high number of ebook downloads from Renew.org, which serves as a perfect transition into the day’s topic. Bobby admits he's a bit uneasy about sharing his thoughts, noting that his views on tribulation might not align with those of his church leaders or seminary professors. Despite this, he remains committed to following God's word, wherever it leads, even if it sparks controversy. Anthony encourages listeners to lean into these kinds of difficult conversations.
As they dig deeper into tribulation, the hosts remind us that all Christians will face trials, pointing to biblical examples like Job and Joseph. Jesus himself warned that believers would face hardships, as seen in John 16:33. This forms the foundation of their discussion: suffering is part of the Christian journey.
The conversation then shifts to specific Bible passages on tribulation, including references from Isaiah, Luke, and Revelation. Bobby offers a detailed take on Isaiah 13 and 34, suggesting that these passages point to future tribulations, contrasting this with the more traditional view that they only reference historical events like the fall of Babylon. He argues that these passages use typology, where earlier events foreshadow future, more significant ones.
They wrap up by exploring Revelation 6, where the opening of the first six seals brings conquest, war, famine, death, martyrdom, and cosmic disturbances—events Bobby links to the final tribulations. He draws parallels between these apocalyptic events and Jesus' teachings in the Gospels.
Throughout the episode, Bobby emphasizes the need for Christians to be prepared for hardship, suggesting a discipleship approach that builds resilience and faithfulness amid suffering. He shares insights from Curtis Sargent's missionary work, where new believers are trained to endure suffering as part of their faith journey.
The episode concludes with a recommendation of The Promise of the Future by Cornelius Venema, a helpful resource on end times prophecy. Anthony and Bobby encourage continued study and reflection, reminding listeners that while interpretations may vary, the return of Jesus is a certainty worth preparing for.
In essence, this episode offers a deep dive into tribulation, blending scriptural insights with practical advice for enduring future challenges. Anthony and Bobby's engaging discussion invites listeners to stay rooted in their faith while preparing for what’s to come.

Join us this April at our 2024 Courageous Renewal Gathering
Our era is a time of tribalistic ethics, tech anxiety, class envy, and “owning” the opposition as if they were trophies. In such a time, disciples of Jesus can’t afford to let the surrounding cultures box the Christian faith into a preset, predictable mold. We are disciples of a creative, courageous King. The gospel of King Jesus renews everything it reaches, starting with us and moving outward into all creation. Our courageous King rescued and redeemed us, and he invites us to participate in his courageous renewal of all things.
