Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly
Evangelical Protestants sometimes accuse Catholics of basing important doctrines on extrabiblical sources. Now Catholics will have a ready rejoinder: Patrick Madrid's Where Is That in the Bible? informs readers of the biblical origins of Catholic doctrines such as priestly celibacy, veneration of Mary and the saints, mortal and venial sins, and purgatory. While the tone is sometimes strident, the information is clear and conveniently organized by topic.

Product Description
When non-Catholics start quoting Bible verses to "prove" that Catholic teachings aren’t biblical, reach for this powerful Bible-based explanation and defense of the Catholic Faith! Where Is That in the Bible? shows you how to deflate standard objections to Catholicism — and how to use Scripture to bring people into (or back into) the Church. Veteran apologist and best-selling author Patrick Madrid gives you simple ways to:

• Show the true meaning of verses anti-Catholics twist to attack the Church

• Give Biblical answers to the most common questions that non-Catholics ask Catholics about the Church

• Explain exactly what the Bible teaches about the pope, priestly celibacy, the divinity of Christ, homosexuality, abortion, salvation, purgatory, the use of statues and icons, confession to a priest, baptism, and other issues often objected to by non-Catholics

• Interpret the Bible correctly, according to authentic Christian Tradition — and steer clear of common mistakes many people make when reading Scripture

• Share the riches of the Catholic Faith more effectively, especially with those who consider Catholicism to be "unbiblical."

4.0 out of 5 stars Great For Reference, Not For Scholarship, August 14, 2001

By	M.J.D. (California) - See all my reviews

Patrick Madrid has assembled an excellent tool for the Catholic who would like to see where exactly his/her Church's teachings are found in the Bible. It is an outstanding reference for finding those verses in Scripture that make you smile and say, "The Bible may as well just say 'Be Catholic!'" I highly recommend "Where is That in the Bible" for the Catholic who has already had an introduction to Scripture and apologetics, for this book does not work to introduce either. Instead, it is a wonderful supplement to a Catholic's on-going study. By no means a scholarly treatise (it wasn't intended to be), "Where is That in the Bible" is easy to read and digest while making the reader see the Bible as less complex, more managable and the kind of literature only God could author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for the pocket, May 2, 2001

By	Tim Drake "Author and Journalist" (Saint Joseph, Minnesota) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This pocket-size book by veteran apologist Patrick Madrid is a powerful resource for Catholics that need a quick Bible verse to justify Catholic teachings.

Not only does each chapter handle the most common objections about the faith (the papacy, sola scriptura, the saints, Mary, and the sacraments), but each also provides a plethora of Biblical verses to support the Catholic teachings in each case.

The nice thing about this book, aside from its size (which makes it easy to carry with you), is that it provides Scripture for issues beyond the typical objections raised. Interested readers will discover Biblical citations on issues such as abortion, tithing, non-Catholic beliefs, drinking and other issues - giving it some merit even outside of Catholic circles.

While there are several books like this in existence, few have gathered so much good information all into one place.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Yellow Pages for the Catholic, November 14, 2001

By A Customer

This book is not a theological compendium of all Catholic Beliefs.

If you want that, go buy a Catechism.

This book is not an apologetics manual for how to irrefutably defend the faith.

If you want that, I suggest Scott Hahn's tape series *Answering Common Objections*, or some other such material.

If we're clear on what this book is NOT, let's look at what it is.

It IS a reference book. It IS the kind of thing you want to keep handy at all times, or better yet, memorize it. It IS the sort of supplement that is nice to have when you KNOW the words of the bible, but you don't remember the chapter and verse. It IS the kind of thing that's nice when you KNOW the logic behind a teaching, but you need a list of bible verses that support it. It IS a kind of cross-reference guide that will help you become familiar with all the places in the bible that support Catholic teaching, so that you don't have to rely on one lonely proof-text.

This really is more like a Yellow Pages, with a handy tab-style reference on the sides of the pages, for fast, easy reference. It's a great investment, at a great price. Do yourself the favor of buying and memorizing this book.
