Catholic apologists often let us know how crucial it is to have an infallible magisterium help one interpret the Bible correctly. With so many Catholic apologists now commenting on sacred scripture, I thought it would be interesting to provide their commentary on the Bible. Let's see how they've been able to rightly divide the word of truth . I'll post their interpretations as I come across them.
In this first installment, Catholic apologist Tim Staples explains Romans 5:12, "Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned."
Listen to Tim's interpretation of Romans 5:12, here.
The church has not defined this. The church has not made as an object of any infallible declaration the nature of animals in the next life and that sort of thing.

Animals are by nature mortal. They do not have immortal souls.
