Commentary As Books The Roman Catholic Controversy

More than at any time in the past, Roman Catholics & evangelicals are working together.They are standing shoulder to shoulder against social evils. They are joining across denominational boundaries in renewal movements. And many evangelicals are finding the history, tradition, and grandeur of the Roman Catholic Church appealing. This newfound rapport has caused many evangelical leaders and laypeople to question the age-old disagreements that have divided Protestants and Catholics: Aren't we all saying the same thing in different language?The Roman Catholic Controversy is an absorbing look at current views of tradition and Scripture, the Papacy, the Mass, Purgatory, indulgences, and Marian doctrine. James White affirms that evangelicals and Catholics share common ground on some points. Yet there are crucial differences that remain regarding the Christian life--and the heart of the Gospel itself--that cannot be ignored.

Column Appertaining To Books The Roman Catholic Controversy

Amazing. I've followed James White pretty closely since 2012, but somehow never got around to reading this. I appreciate his scholarship afresh. This book is really well argued. Accessible, yet super thorough. I wish I didn't have so many other things to read so I could go through this again more slowly and carefully. A Protestant myself, I was blessed by this solid reminder of why these are such important issues. Particularly strong was the chapter on Papal infallibility, which White shreds.

Very informative and concise introduction to the distinctions between Rome and Protestantism.



A clear, precise explanation of Catholicism from a Protestant perspective. I would highly recommend this book to anyone consider Catholicism or in dialogue with someone about the differences between the two perspectives.

This is a helpful and lay-accessible introduction to some of the key differences between Roman Catholic and Protestant theology. It's written from an unabashedly conservative Protestant viewpoint, and the author makes no attempt to hide his premise: that Roman Catholics and evangelical Protestants are preaching two different gospels. Those who agree with that premise will appreciate this book; those who don't will, quite naturally, have some serious bones to pick with Mr. White. Those who are

This was a very clear and systematic refutation of Roman Catholicism which focuses on the core issue at stake between the Reformers and the Catholics: does the death of Christ on the Cross save Christians from all debt and punishment of sin or not? Ironically, this book has been crucial to my movement away from Roman Catholicism and towards Eastern Orthodoxy. The view of salvation described by the Eastern Orthodox understanding of theosis provides a satisfying answer to the solid refutation of

As a Reformed Protestant who grew up in a Roman Catholic household, I am grateful for the many good things that my Roman Catholic background gave, such as a good sense of morality and a rudimentary knowledge of the Bible. However, I have since come to know the truth of the Gospel and my desire for other Roman Catholics is the same.In witnessing to Roman Catholics, however, we need to know what exactly are those issues divide us, and why they matter. While it is uncommon, there are some Roman
