For Episodes 2-10 we'll be diving into the 9 key differences between Catholicism and Protestantism in a series called Catholic or Protestant: What's the Difference?
In today's episode we'll be exploring the Catholic Priesthood and what makes it different from Protestant Ministers called Priests. We'll also be talking about Priests acting In Persona Christi Capitis, as well as apostolic succession and the Episcopate (Bishops), the Indelible Mark of Priesthood and, lastly, why only men can be ordained Priests.
Code of Canon Law, Canon 1008: “By divine institution, some of the Christian faithful are marked with an indelible character and constituted as sacred ministers by the sacrament of holy orders. They are thus consecrated and deputed so that, each according to his own grade, they may serve the People of God by a new and specific title.”
Bible Passages Quoted:
-1 Timothy 2:5
-John 20:21-23
-2 Corinthians 2:10
-Matthew 10:40
-Hebrews 7:17
