Dear Fr, Fr Bourke is a very brave man. The Irish State is in an undeclared war against Our Divine Saviour and His Church. The sooner our Church leaders recognise this fact the better. The minister voted publicly for the slaughter of the unborn therefore if he repented privately he must then publicly declare his opposition to abortion and do all he can to end this slaughter. This is repentance.
You don’t get to make that judgement, I’m afraid. You have no idea about the person’s relationship with God and with his confessor, nor does the priest. There’s a process around this, and the priest ignored it. A decision like this cannot be made by a priest without consultation with his bishop and the hierarchy. The priest is not brave, he is weaponising the Eucharist and trying to act as God in ultimate judgement. That’s extremely grave. The Eucharist is not a reward for do-gooders, we know that the Eucharist can bring us away from sin and protect us from mortal sin the more we receive it. The Eucharist is medicine, love beyond measure, healing, life itself. Christ said forgive sinners seventy times seven. Forgive, forgive, forgive, and bring people to see the error of their ways through love and good example.
Because the public promotion of any Mortal Sin is a grave scandal, it must be publically confessed and also confessed in Confession. When this public sinner came for Holy Communion he had not yet publically admitted his sin that he helped kill the innocent and that in the future he would work only to promote Pro-Life. Also Holy Communion received in Mortal Sin is NOT a blessing for that person as the Scriptures (and exorcists) warns us in 1 Corinthians 11:27-32.
@@InExcelsisDeo24That's completely wrong. He is recurringly promoting abortion. Thus without confession and repentance he cannot receive our lord in the eucharist
@@jackdoherty2125 Please read what I’ve written. When did he last promote abortion, and how do you know about the state of his soul?
@@robertryan2542 Catholic nonsense………Enough!!!…….of this so called churches nonsense…….it’s all about control and money……..believe in yourself first ……..sin exists only if you believe in it !!!!………the pain and suffering this so called church has caused around the world is nothing short of an an abomination and a disgrace ..:…:..make people feel guilty and you will control them easier…….they have destroyed countless lives in the name of Christ!!!….and NEVER !!!! apologized for any of it. Satanic church!!!……they have taken that beautiful carpenters message and misused it for centuries. An abomination to the world.
Agnus Dei is crying in disbelief.
Agnus Dei que tollis piccata mundi, Donna nobis pacem. Amen 🙏
I'm a atheist but I love this. If you believe something, believe it, stand by it, stand up for it. Well done to him.
You're not an atheist, you haven't asked seriously yet. You have to knock on the door and loudly too!
Considering atheism is non-belief (however one parses it), well done yourself for affirming belief
A very brave priest.....
Don't forget many of these politicians are happy to call themselves Catholic when it suits them.
Crawthumpers
Fr Gabriel did the right thing, and more should follow.
Catholicism is not a part time hobby, not a pick n mix option when it comes to selecting which of God's laws you wish to obey.
As I mentioned myself on a local radio station when we were discussing this subject, if you think you disagree with, or indeed know better than God unrepentantly, then you have no right to demand anything of his Church, and certainly no right to the Eucharist.
The church needs to stand for what it believes in, boldly. There is no ground gained in passivity nor retreat. The true the good and the beautiful doesn't change to accommodate contemporary opinions.
Thanks Fr Brendan for a great video as always.
To use the slogan from "up the road "
NOT AN INCH NO SURRENDER.
God bless that priest for refusing this man ,I pray that more priests stand up for Christ and the innocent unborn.
I would stand with Fr. Burke on this. He did not judge him just blessed and advised him. I do hope and pray that his Bishop will stand by him. How can anyone who supports the killing of 1 never mind 40, 000 babies think they can receive the body of Jesus in good conscience. If he knows his faith then he knows he is in Mortal Sin. I dont understand why he needs clarity from the Bishop. If 40,000 babies were killed outside the womb there would be uproar by the people of any country....
Well done Fr . Burke for carrying out your duty as a priest 👏 . I am no ones judge as we only have one. Lets pray for all involved 🙏 🙏 🙏
This just shows the pitifully condition the faith is in Ireland, when this is a perceived controversy.
The. Minister. is A lukewarm. Catholic Abortion is Evil I support the priest. 100 per cent a man of God With great courage
Thank you. However you're incorrect. A Catholic cannot knowingly support murder.
@@valeriefleming2607 Absolute Rubbish !!!….:..the monsters are still living in our bedrooms
He is as Catholic as Joe Biden supporting abortion and declaring Transgender Visibility Day on Easter, the most important Christian holiday.
The priest is 100% correct and the Bishop needs to back him up. Enough of this watery clergy.
If the minister is excommunicated, why does the Bishop need to reply?
Sadly they don't hand out testicles and spines when they issue new purple hats
@@tylerk1013 wholly inappropriate comment. Fr Brendan doesn’t stoop to that kind of rhetoric, it’d be nice to mirror that in the comments on his videos. You can have vigorous debate without degradation.
@@Kitiwake There are two forms of excommunication, Latae sententiae and ferendae sententiae. The former is an automatic act under certain circumstances and not formally declared or may not even be know by church authorities. The latter is the formal declaration from the church following a process. This decision is not made by a priest. Formal excommunication is actually uncommon and it’s likely that some people have excommunicated themselves via their actions without even being aware and it will never be formalised. None of us knows the state of anyone else’s soul, so it’s certainly not the role of you or I to pass judgement.
In this case the Church has already passed judgment in incurring an automatic excommunication. He may not be aware of it, but this priest is aware of it and in good conscience and with the mind of the Church, has denied Communion to the Government Minister.
Dear Father Bourke. God bless and protect you for taking this brave step. Louise Australia
I really appreciate your channel. Im an Irish woman, left Ireland in 1986… love listening to your wisdom. Yes abortion is so evil and as I get older I sense that this act is likely at the core of all the chaos occurring in Ireland and elsewhere across the world. Killing the unborn…doesn’t get worse than that. Will we ever be forgiven? When will we see the truth?
Agree 💯
I think fair play to that priest. He actually appears to believe that he's giving the body, blood, soul and divinity of Our Lord to communicants, not just an oul wafer. If more priests were like him, maybe we lay people would be clearer on the fact that sin exists! Everyone seems to think everything is AOK now - do what you want. The queues for holy communion are long, the queues for confession are non-existant.
I see it as a wonderful grace that God granted that TD. But pride often gets in the way of seeing it as such. After the likes of this, it'll be very hard to appear in front of Our Lord and say 'aw sorry, I didn't know'
Thank u Fr. Brendan for clarifying the Fr Burke matter and I salute the bravery of Fr Gabriel pitty we hadn't more priests like you both God bless you both and I will keep u in my prayers Eilis
at 2 of my family members funerals we sent word back to the local TD who was well known to the family to stay away from Communion as he had actually canvassed for abortion months previous to my family members death and for gay marraige within a short time of a previous funeral. There will be some who would say I should leave it to the priest but we wanted to avoid something like this at our funerals and in all conscience we knew it would be a sacrilegious act.
I wish this would happen here in the US!
Maybe the Catholics would stop voting for pro abortion candidates
Well said.....
You overthrew Roe v Wade! Want to stop them having abortions? Tell the truth. The Russians and Chinese got rid of abortion and are now pushing women to have children. There's a reason for that. Their country's were failing. That being the case you'll have more Communists than Americans in no time. That should leave them thinking.
Irish bishops need to show a backbone and applaud fr Burke instead of sitting on there hands and doing what these disgusting politicians tell them what to do bishops need to start leading the Catholic people like true leaders do not by doing nothing god bless fr Burke pity there wasn't more priest like you
So glad to hear that Irish priest(s) are standing up in this way; American "Catholic" politicians need to be reminded of their status. Thank you, Fr. Brendan! Praying for you!
@@nancydunham4361 I’m afraid you don’t get to decide who is Catholic and who isn’t. It’s not some sort ‘I’m a better Catholic than that person’ game.
@@InExcelsisDeo24 I'm in no way responding to any particular person's Catholicism; what I am responding to is a widespread perception in the US that Communion is a social right, particularly among politicians who publicly dissent from Church teaching (E.g. support for abortion). I wish our bishops and priests would offer clarity on the situation, that's all.
@@nancydunham4361 There is clarity. There is church law and process. The Holy Father has spoken about this many times. Neither he nor his predecessors have ever denied any Catholic politician or public figure holy communion. He implores priests to act as shepherds guiding, and not to view the Eucharist as a weapon or a prize only given to the ‘best’.
“As a pastor, you have to be a neighbor, and if you get out of this pastoral care of the church, you become a politician."
@@InExcelsisDeo24 I have no doubt that the current Holy Father has made clear statements in this regard, but at times public figures seem singularly disinclined to benefit from a shepherd's guidance. It's disheartening, at times. I take your point, but I don't think continuing this conversation will get the question any further forward right now. Thank you for engaging with me.
Yes, "Catholic" Joe Biden who supports abortions and declares "Transgender Day of Visibility" on Easter is disgrace of both, the United States and the Christian faith.
Fr Brenden , your love for the mystical body of Christ shines through this episode in a beautiful way . Prayers continue for you Ireland 🌹🙏☘️ . For an end to the culture of death in Ireland and throughout the world , Jesus I Trust in You .
If you are in a state of mortal sin, one cannot receive Holy Communion.
Father Burke is absolutely correct to refuse to give Holy Communion to someone who publicly advocated for, and campaigned for, the removal of the constitutional protection of life of the unborn.
There is no public display of repentance / contrition by the politician who publicly advocated and campaigned. Zero evidence of any repentance / contrition.
Father Burke is 100% correct in this instance.
This incident highlights the fact that our bishops have never made it clear, before, during or after the campaign to remove the protection for the life of the unborn, that those promoting, procuring or voting for abortion are in mortal sin and automatically excommunicated, and remaining in that state and unrepentant, will take them to hell! The bishops, as shepherds of their flocks, have a duty to try and lead souls to heaven by preaching and proclaiming the Gospel, and they will be accountable to the most High God of any failure on their part to do so. God bless Fr. Burke and all those other faithful priests. The proclamation of the Gospel and the issue of mortal sin should never be a matter of semantics.
I forgot to add my name. Peter Killeen, Castlebar
@@coolmusic1daddy I agree absolutely. But many Catholics, including clergy, will regard us as 'judgemental'. We're 'alt right', transphobic, homophobic, haters🥴 and the rest! What a world we live in.
Fr Burke is truly compassionate. He is trying to save this man's eternal soul.I hope the minister opens his heart and mind to the truth about the consequences of sin. It's truly terrifying how uncatachised are current Catholics. Too many people think they're doing God a favour by attending Mass, and believe they have not only the right, but a positive duty to criticise His divine authority over us creatures.
@@coolmusic1daddy how do you know this man hasn’t confessed and repented? Has he made recent comments supporting abortion? The confessional is a totally private space. Nobody is required to tell all and sundry about what they have or haven’t confessed. Do you tell everyone about your sins after you’ve gone to confession? And no, not even constituents have a right to know about it.
Public sin that is encouraged and proclaimed publically carries with it a special moral imperative of revealing to the public his change of heart and mind on abortion and tell his reasons, and that he is sorry for his past promotion of abortion and his sincerity of amendment in the future. If I hurt one person, I apologize to that person, if I'm a teacher and have done wrong in the classroom, I apologize to the whole class. If I've done wrong to the public and thus to the common good, I apologize publically. And of course Confession is necessary for all Mortal sins both private and public, before going to Holy Communion. We must pray daily for all public leaders in the Church, government and every sphere of our society.
It's not only politicians that voted for abortion, everyone who voted for abortion committed mortal sin and should repent.
40,000 is a crazy amount in such a small country
@@martingomel1611 Rubbish !! the Catholic Church has outlived its useful ness a bunch of old men telling the world what to do ??……..it’s all about money with these people……abusing children , the laundry’s in Ireland, the treatment of unmarried mothers …???…this so called church has to answer a lot of questions,before it continues to pontificate to people about what they consider right and wrong. People starving in Gaza and the pope calls for prayer ha!ha!ha!……..with all their money they couldn’t send any to GASA ….the the pope calls for prayer 🙏………as if prayer is going to feed them . Wake up !! Looks like prayer saves money and it would be hard to find that beautiful carpenter in the Vatican .
Agnus dei , qui tollis peccata mundi, Donna nobis pacem .
@@petermurtagh6294 Well when you're now the main hub in Europe for sex and human trafficking, how is it surprising? Women and children are going missing and no one in politics is addressing it.
People didn’t vote for abortion. They voted for the woman’s right to decide her own fate in the circumstances in which she finds herself. It’s a huge difference that fake Christian’s like to ignore. Jesus in his understanding, compassion and kindness would give the woman the choice and he would love and respect her.
@emmevery tnolan2329
Very true and outspoken,I 👏you.
FR. BOURKE is spot on as Jesus said if your not for me you’re against me ❤
We most certainly need more priests like that one
Thank you for every video you release, Fr Kilcoyne. My prayers are with you, your podcast, and your congregation.
Well done Fr Gabriel. Let’s hope your Bishop will not act in the same way as the Bishop of Kerry when he stopped Fr Sheehy from saying Mass after saying that while abortion is now legal in Ireland, it is a mortal sin and totally unacceptable in Catholic teachings and faith.
Well done you are also a great priest
More Priests, Like Him Please 🙏 and Fair Play to Enoch in Total, agreement ❤❤
Fr Brendan, please do not be sorry for speaking the truth, you are correct in saying the law is demonic because IT IS. If you do have people coming after you in the comments for speaking the truth, then that is pitiable for them, and it only demonstrates how alienated they have become. My husband and I always keep you in our prayers. Thank you for being an excellent priest.
Thank you Fr Brendan for addressing this matter and giving us clarity on it. It is important for the Bishops to give clear guidance to the faithful on the issue of abortion. May God bless your work.
Thank you Father Kilcoyne
Very well presented.
Can’t wait to see the Bishop’s response. Hopefully he will fully support Fr Bourke.
🙏💙
Father Gabriel Burke is a faithful priest and absolutely 💯 correct. If the political decision maker on promotion and legal implementation of abortion into Irish law. Father Burke has Courage .they political Minister comes across as narcissistic. I'm entitled I'm I'm I'm.
Wise words - close attention. Thank you Father, hopefully many will listen to these wise words.
I am surprised the minister does not have the self awareness to know that supporting abortion is beyond the pale, he maybe making a issue of this to gardener support from the left liberals and raise his profile.
!THANK U Good priest, your words need to be heard around the world. May God's Holy Spirit inspire u even to speak out. May u be blessed a thousand times for you courage in speaking out. abortion is the greatest crime that mankind can commit.
The Minister in question was refused twice before and had a camera ready for the 3rd refusal.
The minister needs a good kick in the you know whats. He has made a funeral all about himself. Mary McAleese is another one who claims to be an expert on canon law yet seems to have no problem with abortion or SSM. Lets face it this all should have been explained during the SSM referendum. You vote for this thats your business, but don't present yourself for communion.
I agree.The horse has bolted.
Why were these issues,concerning, Church Law and breaking Canon Law explained to the laiety,by Bishops and Priests,before the Referendum for Abortion,took place.
The Catholic Church was mainly very quiet on its preaching and teaching at that time..Sadly.....
Great explanation Fr, a great voice of reason, in this issue.
Fr Brendan, I compliment Fr Burke for his courageous stance on this very serious issue. I was a parishioner of a terrific Fr Hogan, in Multyfarnham, in 2018 when, after the Abortion Referendum, he refused Holy Communion to Robert Troy, a pro-abortion FF politician. After complimenting Fr Hogan on his courageous stance his answered humbly "I did it to save his soul!" Whata a great priest!
But, may I suggest, there's a related more serious issue for our priests and bishops i.e. as guardians of the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ which can only be received if recipients are in the state of grace. Our priests and bishops know that it's widespread that people, for example while at funerals or weddings, - including non-Catholics - present for Holy Communion while not being in the state of grace! Are priests and bishops doing anything to address this fundamental tenet of our Faith? At the very least, I would suggest, celebrants should announce before Holy Communion the importance of this condition and, should the state of grace not be present, they present for a Blessing instead of Holy Communion.
God bless you Father Burke.
Well said Fr
God bless you Father for your teaching skills. Like all humans I'm a sinner. But it has always helped me that the church articulates right from wrong...Father Burke God bless him does this. Without we are in an ocean of moral chaos.
This priest on Breaking Bread was a real treat. Glad to have found his own channel
Well done..a proper deciple of Christ
Thank you for this excellent presentation Fr Kilcoyne. Much good I suspect and espcially as you say "clarity" will come from Fr Burke's stance. Prayers assured for Bishop Crean, Fr Burke, yourself and all clergy who are trying to be faithful to Christ and His teaching. Best wishes. Cork viewer.
Well said.
As usual Fr you have hit the nail on the head. We need far more guidance like this from the bishops as a group.
I agree with your interpretation and it's about time someone from the church has the courage and moral conviction to say it as it is. Your job is to educate and guide the flock which the Catholic Church has been remiss in heretofore. ⛪
It is right and just! Pray for his Minister of health soul that he might repent and turn his actions for the glory of God and do good! Good for the priest for doing his duty well and to protect the holy church and the word of God! Praise Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour ❤
Thanks a million Fr,we need priests like you to keep telling people the seriousness of the situation,.
Thank you Fr. Brendan
God bless this priest and sanctified men of God who stand firm in faith.
Thank you Father for your direct and strong stance on this. You are one of the few with a back bone. And an educated backbone at that. Tough times for the priests like yourself. Especially in your diocese. Thank God for the ordination of another strong man to your number a few weeks back. Ye will be rewarded for yer defence of the unborn by the mother of the unborn.
"almost, certainly, maybe" 😂😂😂😂 best sentience ever 😂
Thank you. The danger to the eternal life of the proposers and supporters of abortion is well made. In charity we need to encourage them to repentance and welcome them home. Démian Ó Riain
I agree with the good Priest, it's so sad to see how the Country has rejected God and the family, and just look what's happening to the Country.
Fr, go one step further and implore them to repent rather than just not receive communion.
God bless fr Bourke why can there be more priests like him 🙏
TD burke had some1 ready with the camera 2 record as it happened twice b4 and the media reported his saying he didnt want 2 take away from a funeral mass- that the mass was 2 celebrate a person life and all they did in local life,
A funeral mass should be the total opposite of shane McGowan funeral.
Bless you Father
Thank you for your frank and honest explanation. God bless you. 🙏
During the Abortion referendum, A FG Councillor was up reading the Lessons and participating as a minister of the Eucharistic, After Mass she stood outside the Chapel handing out the FG policy on the Afore mentioned subject
Only the priest is a minister of the Eucharist. Lay people are called “extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion “
“Scripture readings” …… not lessons
Sorry for being pedantic but our language around the faith is very important to its understanding
@@Beanbag777, In our Chapel it was always called reading the Lessons
The parish priest of that church needs to be taken to account in allowing any politician to abuse the church in that way.
@@seamusweber8298 an affluent are of Sligo Town
The minister ( Josepha Madigan) actually led the entire service. At the time the media made remarks about her saying mass. She wasnt reprimanded. @@Beanbag777😮
If this TD respected the blessed sacrament he would not have insulted our Lord by receiving the communion
Hopefully Bishop Crean won’t throw Father Burke under the bus, as the Bishop of Kerry did to Father Sheehy in Tralee last year ✝️
Very well said,.Fr. I really hope the bishop will support him.
Much respect to Fr. Bourke a good priest standing up to what is morally , ethically and what is right in the eyes of God .
Thou shalt not kill abortion is murder , it is the ending of the most innocent vulnerable life .
The right to life is a basic fundamental human right .
There are a lot of tourist Catholics who go to Church when they feel like it , they like to sin and live in sin and think the world revolves around them , they think they are so important that the Church and the word of God has to change to facilitate their sin .
Pride comes to mind , thank you for this video I hope more priests get the courage to speak up on this issue .
The church need to stand up. To these politicians...for there evil laws..
The Priest did the right thing, and I hope that the Bishop does too. Are Politicians unaware of the Teachings of the Church? If so, they need to educate themselves asap. NONE of us can break the Commandments.
Thank you for upholding the Church’s teaching on Holy Communion.
May Our Lord Jesus Christ be praised in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar, now and forever.
Really glad that Narcissistic Man got a dose of reality from Fr Burke.
Well said Fr. Brendan
Father,fr Bourke is a true man of God,he should be truely supported on his actions,I emailed the bishop to offer my support as I believe you cannot be a follower of Christ and support the murder of unborn babies, thankyou for this video
Many people today think they can pick and choose and leave the rest with regard to the Catholic faith? Pope Saint John Paul 11 said during his visit to Ireland " There will be no 'a le carte' religion " He was spot on. God is the same today and every day for all time as are the 10 commandments.
We have state sanctioned murder of little people who can't defend themselves 😢 I am on your side Fr. Burke May God Bless you 🙏
Thanks Fr Brendan 👍
As a catholic agnostic, diversity is different views, fair play to these people for standing up for themselves.........PC had become the state religion, every time you turn on the media there PC Feminist propaganda being peddled...
The Bishop must support the Priest, as the Priest was totally correct in declining to abuse the sacrament of Communion.
Thank you Fr. Brendan. You explained that very well.
Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed....
I hope Father that the bishop is as brave as you.
We need more priests like Fr. Burke and Fr. Kilcoyne 👍! Priests, who take Catholic faith seriously and aren't afraid to defend its values and principles regardless the backlash in current political climate!
What kills Catholic faith is lukewarmness, compliance and silence on controversial topics.
We live in an age of utter 'relativism' with its total indifference to authority. The question is 'why' any individual would knowingly precipitate such a crisis? Why would any individual with prior indifference to the sanctity of human life want to present for Holy Communion? Is presenting oneself thus not a less-than-passive-act, a further public assertion of the prior indifference but which potentially visits injury to the conscience of many others? Do we want to have the cake of relativism and eat the bread of life? Hardly! If we don't believe in the sanctity of life we probably don't believe in the real presence and view the Church merely as a human institution. In that case why would continue to participate? Is it for mere social gain?
This is an outstanding video as always Fr Brendan.
Every word is true.
Bishop Crean meeds to stand for Christ and his priest.
Name and Shame the SIN
Offer repentance to the sinner through confession.
We choose heaven or hell ourselves.
Keep these talks coming.
I thrive on them
Blessings to you
No communion for this clique in Leinster house.
Priests is a warrior 🎉🎉❤
God bless you Fr. for speaking about this, you are being very brave and truthful we need more Catholic priests to speak out on matters like these ….Abortion is a mortal sin people need to hear this from our priests and spiritual leaders more often…. I totally agree with Fr.Burke he did the right thing, politicians need to wake up especially the practicing Catholics ones they need to be educated on the rule’s before they draw up these legislation laws just to earn themselves more votes and think that’s what the people of Ireland want ….we certainly never wanted abortion to be passed in this our lovely family oriented country. Thank you Breda
Here in the US, our former Speaker in the House of Representatives representing San Francisco area in California has supported abortion rights and against any legislative restrictions passed by various states throughout her political career. Her bishop excommunicated her-her bishop. Soon after, she flew over to Rome and received communion from Pope Francis. Our current president goes to communion publicly all the time and again has always voted for abortion rights and against any restrictions. When the earthly head prelate of our Church ignores church teaching, we’re going to have confusion.
Am I right in thinking that the TD had previously been warned twice by the priest that he was not able to receive Holy Communion? If so, and he chose to ignore the advice then he in even more trouble.
Twice before. He also just happened to have a camera ready for the 3rd time.
@@jaqian You couldn't make this up! God will not be mocked by these scheming, foolish individuals looking to ridicule church teaching
@@user-ot5mi1uc1d I think he is looking for sympathy votes in the General Election
Thank you❤
Thank you Father Kilcoyne for the clarifying this matter it can be overlooked I will continue to pray for you
Thanks Fr Brendan, the church is losing the faithful due to bad or cowardly direction, many souls will spend eternity in hell as a result of poor cathechesis. Catholic Parents have to take responsibility for their childrens souls, and insist on proper education in our schools. May God help us all.
Thank you father... I love listening to you. Your guidance is a blessing..
With The Help of God and His Holy Blessed Mother we will be blessed with more priests like this and you.
I have sadly been guilty of receiving Our Blessed Lord in a state of sin and I will be forever grateful that Our Lord Didn't Strike me down dead on the spot because that is what I deserved. I genuinely didn't do it intentionally but now that God Has Set Fire to my heart with love for Him I would rather die than receive Our Lord's Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity with sin on my soul.
There are two options here, either the T.D doesn't understand that receiving Our Lord in mortal sin is drinking hell upon yourself or he doesn't believe in The Real Presence of God in Holy Communion, both are horrific.
This priest has blessed this politician, he would see that if he had an actual faith in Jesus. So the fact that he is going to the Bishop to complain tells us everything we need to know about the character of his heart.
Let us pray for him, Jesus Died for him even though He Knew the sins he would commit, the same as He Gave His Precious Life for all us sinners 🥰 God bless
Edified by the stance taken by the Priest. Protecting his Lord and Saviour. I pray for the minister. He needs prayer, so the Holy Spirit will illuminate him.
what shocks me is that someone who votes for abortion would present themselves for communion… why do they do it, they don’t afree with Catholic principles. I am not Catholic, so I am external in my understanding of this.
Better yet the politician should go to CONFESSION & beg forgiveness AND work to CGANGE the evil law
Great to be, and staying,a daily repentent Catholic.
Thank you Father for mentioning 1 Corinthians 11: 28-29. Knowing what he did about the TD, Father Burke will have had a care for his soul, and therefore a duty to refuse communion. It will be interesting to see what +Crean and the hierarchy say.
murder is murder.........

Moral obligation trumps legal obligation, I would think. God is so good. I am here in America and as you know we are coming up to an election. I am so struggling with should I vote or not. I am 60 years old and since I have been of age to vote, I have voted. However, here I am with three candidates who two of which support abortion no matter, and one who supports it by existential circumstances and gave the decision back to the states (which I do agree it must be up to the states, but that is another debate) What is grieving is that one of the candidates RFK is Catholic! and is pro choice! once he came out and openly declared that, I messaged him, he won't see it but I had to anyway, and told him that I was encouraged by his reasonable approach to the issues that are huge right now, however because he is now pro choice I can not in good conscience vote for him. So Father, thank you so much for this video. it has put into context my dilemma. Holy Mother of God Pray for Us. Father, I ask your prayers for my and for America. Thank you again for holding the line.
Please watch Father Stephen Imbarrato's videos. He gives guidance on what to do in this situation.
@@marytierney794 thank you. I will
They would sell their baby and your granny try not to make things worse ❤ why does everything have to be so broken? It’s so tough God bless you
100% right, Fr. The sin is manifest so no need for a declaration or an imposition. Fr. Burke did the right thing. People need to understand and acknowledge this instead of being in denial because it maybe doesn't suit them. It's their very soul at risk.
Thankyou Fr. Kilcoyne for covering this. Fr Bourke was standing up for right and protecting the Blessed Sacrament God bless him and you
It is very strange how we have photographic evidence of what happened. Does that not seem as though Minister. Burke set the whole situation up. This was not normal to have a camera on hand
It actually might prove that Fr. Bourke had already spoken to him on the matter as Minister Burke was anticipating the outcome and wanted to record it for social media purposes.
Fr.Bourke refused Holy Communion to Mr.Bourke out of love for him.Fr.Bourke does not want Mr.Bourke go to Hell for all eternity.God bless Fr.Bourke and God forgive Mr.Bourke.
