It was hard for me to choose between mother
and daughter for the second segment of
Crystal (left) was searching different religions
and Sherry (right, Crystal's mom) was a Catholic
that "sometimes goes to church". I choose to
hand the cell phone to Sherry for the segment.
And while Sherry was on the air with Todd, I
shared the Gospel with Crystal.
After the program, I made sure that Sherry and her daughter
understood the differences between Catholics and Christians namely,
the sufficiency and authority of Scripture, how one is saved, etc.
They listened and seemed to understand
what the Bible taught about how we can be forgiven.
I explained that their works of righteousness
cannot justify them but Christ
can and we are to base
our faith solely in the fact that we are “
justified as a gift by
His grace through the redemption which is in
Christ Jesus, whom God displayed as a propitiation
in His blood through faith.” (Romans 3:24-25).
The Catholic doctrine of purgatory is another difference,
plus the fact that Catholics believe that man must
or even can
pay or
make satisfaction for his own sins
is totally contrary to scripture! Yikes!
God saves us, “not on the basis of deeds
which we have done in righteousness, but according
to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and
renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out
upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
so that being justified by His grace we would be made
heirs according to the hope of eternal life” (Titus 3:5-7).
I showed them the pink and blue gospel tracts.
She and her daughter seemed very grateful.
I pleaded with the ladies that their was
nothing more important than living for Christ and
trusting in Him alone for their forgiveness.
I can only hope that they cry out to God for their eternal salvation!
The broadcast starts about 20 minutes into the program.
