#117 Protestant Reaction to New Pope (Leo XIV)

Chicagoan Pope Leo XIV has been elected—and in this video, Joel Settecase of the Think Institute critically examines the office of the papacy through the lens of Scripture, history, and worldview analysis. You'll get a breakdown of Pope Leo XIV's Chicago roots, progressive alignment with Pope Francis, and the controversies surrounding his record. Then, Joel turns to the Bible to assess the legitimacy of the papal office, showing why Jesus—not Peter—is the true Rock of the Church. This episode concludes with a call to discernment, gospel clarity, and joining a community of men committed to biblical truth.Watch my whole Apologetics Answers playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfSpUNYR5qo6sv8Pk8x0tmaq8lLQHHlTm&si=FlnSB-pBhZ6SSaJEMen, get real accountability and knowledge to help you become the worldview leader your family and church need.
