The first two chapters of Walter Martin's book on Roman Catholicism called, "The Roman Catholic Church in History" are here presented. Walter Martin (September 10, 1928 -- June 26, 1989), was an American Evangelical minister, author, and Christian apologist who founded the Christian Research Institute in 1960 as a para-church ministry specializing as a clearing-house of information in both general Christian apologetics and in countercult apologetics. Walter authored such works as: "Jehovah of the Watchtower," " The Rise of the Cults," "The Maze of Mormonism," "Essential Christianity: A Handbook of Basic Christian Doctrines," "The Riddle of Reincarnation," "The New Age Cult," "Walter Martin's Cults Reference Bible," the classic "The Kingdom of the Cults, " & others. Walter Martin debated the famous atheist Madalyn Murray O'Hair on national radio (to hear some of these debates go to https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL640E505B96CD6B39).

Chapter One - The Papacy, Was Peter the First Pope?
"To study the papacy is to learn a valuable lesson - to learn that when we surrender to men what we are commanded to surrender only to the Holy Spirit, spiritual tyranny and slavery results.

Great Sermon! WONDERFUL! I purchased Dr Martin's book entitled "Kingdom of The Cults about 40 years ago, but unfortunately, I loaned the book to a friend of mine, but soon thereafter, he moved out of town, and he kept it for many years, but after several requests from me, he finally promised to return it when he next visited my area, but, unfortunately he died a few months after deciding he'd bring it back to me. It was one of the best books I'd ever invested in, but was unable to find it again in any of the few Christian bookstores in my city, and this is the reason why I'd begun to request that he return it. It is a very good read, and, likewise this is a very, very good presentation of the section of his book that concerned Catholics. I have listened to this audio several times after recently discovering it here on SermonAudio and am downloading it THIS day, before I lose the ability to find it again and to listen to it without logging onto the Internet. THANKS to whomever it was who made this great broadcast available here on SA. God's blessings!!!
