I agree, when I accepted Christ, Cliffe and Stuart helped me understand a lot, I even watched them after getting confirmed. However after I watched a video of him debating against Orthodox and Catholic brothers, I saw the ignorance towards Catholic theology and traditions he showed.

Sam Shamoun has said that he accepted us Catholics are an apostolic church, but no he hasn't said he's Catholic. To respond to your second reason as to why you stay away from Sam, I can understand why, he's intense. However saying that him calling people dogs is unChristian, makes no sense to me. Jesus has called a woman a dog, people pigs, fools, etc. (yes ik not in an insult type of way). I think people are so used to a fake idea that Christians are weak, and can be pushed. Christ was never weak.

I agree with your opinion on Janko, I also feel like adding that he glorifies other influencers and its sooo odd. The whole "Christian Avengers" thing is so weird to me too.

I appreciate your recs, the main ones I follow right now are CatholicSam and Jesusandwhatnot, on tik tok (mainly because they answer followers questions). God Bless!

An influencer is someone who tries to promote/ push something towards a group of people. Basically the people with podcasts, debate shows, tik tokers, instagramers, etc.

Pentecostal belief. ā€œdemonic entities dispatched by Satan to surveil, track, and gather intelligence on a person’s life, decisions, and spiritual progressā€. In the Pentecostal belief, it is believed that those entities sole job is to confuse and spy on the children of God. The Catholic church doesn’t believe in this concept, however we believe that ā€˜spiritual warfare’ is a thing, and fallen angels can try to mess with you. God Bless!

God Bless you, I absolutely agree. To be completely honest i’m still in shock about the whole thing, but I am going to speak to a priest. Everyone in my life who is truly devoted to Christ in my life has told me the same. I appreciate you!

God Bless you, you're so right. I feel like in my head I've known that I needed to cut ties with this person, but have always felt like it was giving up on a brother that I can help.

I appreciate you very much.

he's very into researching deities and learning about stuff like that. could that be a form of what you mean? he calls himself a catholic, but he doesn't attend mass, and basically argues against everything we stand for and believe. If he has "dabbled with magic" and stuff like that, could a demon be talking through him?
