Having faith means trusting in sacred scripture, sacred tradition and the magisterium of the church.
Ever wondered why there's so much debate over who wrote the first Gospel? In this episode of 'Why Did Peter Sink?', Peter Flies dives into the scholarly arguments surrounding Matthew's authorship. He takes a closer look at how some scholars have tried to knock Matthew off his pedestal as the first Gospel writer, a move that has significant implications for the Protestant view on Peter as the first Pope.
Flies explores the biases that can creep into biblical scholarship and how these biases can influence our understanding of sacred texts. He doesn't shy away from discussing the broader implications of this debate, touching on how these academic squabbles can sometimes reflect larger cultural and religious battles. But amidst all the controversy, Flies brings it back to a core message: the importance of faith.
He argues that trusting in sacred scripture, tradition, and the teachings of the church is crucial for maintaining a strong spiritual foundation. If you're curious about the intersection of faith, history, and scholarship, this episode offers a thought-provoking listen.
