Meeting the Protestant Challenge: How to Answer 50 Biblical Objections to Catholic Beliefs

by Karlo Broussard

In Meeting the Protestant Challenge, Karlo Broussard gives you the knowledge and tools you need to answer fifty of the most common Bible-based objections to Catholicism. How can the Mass be a sacrifice when the Bible says it’s just a memorial? Why do Catholics stress good works when the Bible says we’re saved by faith? Scripture says that all have sinned—so what Catholics believe about Mary being “immaculate” is plainly false. Jesus said to call no man father, yet that’s what Catholics call their priests! How much clearer could it be? For these challenges and many more, Karlo provides a step-by-step plan for understanding the roots of the objection, breaking down the context and full meaning of the Scripture passages, anticipating followup arguments, and offering your own friendly counter-challenge to help Protestants begin to see how the Bible and Catholic teaching actually coexist in harmony. Don’t get caught off guard! When the next biblical challenge comes, be ready to meet it with confidence.

Worth Reading

It’s good that others are out there helping to clarify the misbeliefs of people who do not really understand Catholic teaching and beliefs.

[Leslie Moellering · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very helpful to understand the historic Biblical interpretations behind many Catholic teachings.

[Rachel · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book could be summarized like this:
A. Protestant reads a verse and concludes it proves a Catholic belief wrong
B. Karlo points out the verses before and after to give context
C. Karlo points out several other passages of scripture that say otherwise
D. Karlo appeals to common sense, facts, and the early church
E. The Bible is a Catholic Book and there is no contradiction.

Moral of this story is an infallible book is useless without an infallible interpretation.

I would give this book 10 stars if I could! It’s simple and each challenge is met concisely with some really thought provoking questions and counter challenges. I would highly recommend this book to any Catholic looking for scriptural ways to defend their faith and any Protestant who is curious to find out how the Catholic Church scriptural justifies some of her teachings.

I feel so bad for not finishing Meeting the Protestant Challenge. I just couldn't really grasp it-- it kind of went over my head. I'll probably pick it back up when I'm older and able to understand the Bible better.

I honestly don't think it's a bad book, just hard to understand for someone my age. I think Meeting the Protestant Challange is good for people who understand the Bible and who can understand big words. I just found it hard to pay attention to, and hard to understand. It kind of reminded me of a textbook with the way it was written.

It was extremely similar to the essential Catholic survival guide by Catholic Answers but it is still insightful

A great book on apologetics!
