General Description:

Gregory Oatis

Catholic Doctirne in Scripture is a compendium of scripture verses, topically arranged and easy to use, which confirm the scriptural affirmation of Catholic teachings - particularly those that Catholics and Protestants traditionally dispute. Of course, since it was the Church herself who - through the power of the Holy Spirit bestowed upon her by Christ - promulgated the book we today call the Bible, the Catholic faith does not derive its authority from the "scripture alone." Indeed, we only know which books make up the inspired and inerrant New Testament because sixteen hundred years ago Pope St. Damasus I discerned them. We cannot trust in their authority without trusting in his.

While the Catholic Church has never held to the doctrine that the Bible ought to be our sole authority of faith, anyone who does hold to that belief will have difficulty denying the Church's teachings, since the Bible testifies to them so compellingly. This book is intended to help Bible-loving Catholics - and Protestants discover how, and where.

"...Attractive, thorough, well-organized, well-written, and easy to use for the average lay person."
- Carl Olson, Editor, Envoy Magazine, author of Will Catholics Be "Left Behind"?
