Former Methodist minister Paul Whitcomb also wrote The Catholic Church has the Answer. He wrote in the Introduction to this 1958 booklet, "This 'confession' is simply the graphic recounting of a rather extraordinary spiritual odyssey, a spiritual odyssey which had its finale in the Catholic Church. This is simply a testimonial of one man's faith, an intimate glimpse of one man's soul... contained in this testimonial is the basic Catholic motivation, the reason why ALL Catholics are Catholics." (Pg. vii)He states, "All of the stories you have heard about the unscriptural and totalitarian character of the Catholic Church notwithstanding, it was my pursuit of Scriptural truth and my exercise of intellectual freedom that led me to become a Catholic." (Pg. 2) He adds, "the more I studied the Bible, the more I made it my rule of faith, the more I realized that my faith was not wholly what God had ordered. I discovered VOIDS in my religious fabric, voids which had to be filled if I were to know real peace of soul... the more I studied comparative religion the more I came to realize that the Catholic faith was the one faith that could fill the voids in my religious life." (Pg. 5)He explains, "As a Protestant I was part of... an 'interdenominational association' made up of over 300 Christian bodies, each one different..." (Pg. 11) He adds, "here also was division, division in the most explicit and flagrant sense of the word. Here, unquestionably, was a concept of Christ's mystical body on earth which could not possibly be consonant with the one spirit, one faith, one shepherd concept described in the Bible." (Pg.
