My son, 16 yrs old and my daughter 20 yrs. old we have been called to The Latin Mass, my son kept desiring more silence … he started saying people should not be talking before or after mass…. We went to our first TLM this past March 16, we traveled 1 1/2 hours and it was so beautiful, I can’t even describe the beautiful depth of what it did to all our hearts!🕊🔥! As you speak of the Norvus ordo & TLM, my son & my daughter said so many beautiful things after we left the mass, but one thing that hit me hard was my son saying, if children and teens were brought up within this mass we would have more priests and religious…. He said I would love to serve within the TLM. To see this mass as Coming to Calvary with our Lord, Praise be to God for the enormous gift of the TLM. You continue to enlighten our family as we have entered into this new beautiful journey and experiencing it all, thank you again father for sharing your love and gifts of this mission you have been called too! Prayers for you daily for your strength & protection 🙏🏻🕊🔥🙏🏻
A friend was telling me that he was recently (last week) at a N.O. Mass and there was a woman dressed in white on the altar purifying the chalice after the distribution of the Holy Eucharist. This is the devastating result of feminism, which, I think (after listening to clever people on this issue like Tim Gordon and Michael knowles), was the gateway to transvestism. When the ideologies of feminism are accepted by men (including clergymen) and women, they become weak and effeminate (full of vices), hence, the mutilation of the Liturgy.
Don't exonerate the heretical MALE priest who allowed such liturgical abuse to indulge *His Modernist Agenda.* Tim Gordon and Michael Knowles blame women/feminism for all modern social problems... while they kiss and caress the common male vices like: drunkenness, drug abuse, domestic abuse, neglect, greed, selfishness, egotism, gambling, pornography, adultery, and criminality. They are too cowardly to correct their own peers, other men, so they pick on those smaller than themselves. They even blame women for wicked men. That's called MISOGYNY. MEN are transvestites. But the gender-confused, like Gordon and Knowles, blame women for perverted MEN. So it was actually Gordon and Knowles who led to transvestism because of their gender-confusion. Merriam-Webster definition of Feminism 1: the theory supporting the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes 2: organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests If men had fulfilled their obligations, then women would not have even needed equal rights. But unless you were born yesterday, you know that men quit the patriarchy. Men stopped providing for and protecting women, in favor of *their own self-indulgence, which makes men hard-hearted.* Only MISOGYNISTS claim that sinful men are feminine/effeminate. In reality, *sinful men are hard-hearted.* That is what Jesus said: due to the HARDNESS OF THEIR HEARTS. (Matthew 19:8) Tim Gordon got fired, from his teaching job, for his misogyny. Gordon and Knowles make up their own false, fantasy definition of feminism, as their replacement for *fallen human nature and the 7 deadly sins,* so they can blame women for society's problems, while they kiss and caress the common male vices.
I was a feminist. As an insider, I realized that feminism was the most destructive cultural force in the century. It has seeped through every aspect' politics, medicine, religion and morality. Feminism is a is a marxist dream come true.
@@JudeMalachi......... It is dead in the sense that it is not in common usage therefore meanings are now unchangeable (protected by the good Lord)(not much use to sophists)
@@JudeMalachi Latin is indeed a dead language: its morphology, grammar and pronunciation are fixed. Translating new words into Latin doesn't make Latin a living language.
I spent most of my Life in Novus Ordo. There is a disconnect, a vagueness relating to the Gospel of Redemption. There is almost no sense of the intensity of the need to be saved, the corruptibility of man, and the utter need to rely and depend upon God, and to submit and surrender to Him. There is no sense of Communion with God, and no sense of the sacrifice of Christ and our desperate need for it, a mortal need for it. There is nothing historic to the Novus Ordo, nothing Patriarchal, nothing sacrificial, no connection to, or continuity with the past of, the human race. It's a severance of Christ from Adam, and us from Christ. It's INSANE. And it is amazing how the Church can be ruined by bad formation, withheld truth, disconnection between teachings and rites. I mean, the change in Confirmation! Don't specify WHY the Holy Ghost is being asked to pour Himself out for? Protestants can pray for the Holy Spirit, but they cannot call down the Holy Spirit permanently outside of illicit Baptism.
This is awesome insight on the Mass. I am 59 and only have known the Novus Ordo. To be honest from the heart, all this in fighting on the Mass, the lock down of the church during pandemic, the sex abuse scandals still going on, the pagan ceremony at the vatican in '19, the lack of acknowledgement by the Pope and the USCCB on the outspoken defiance of Pelosi and Biden on abortion has left me shattered, angry and distrustful of the church. I am too old to learn latin and have been robbed of so much, the more I hear about the latin mass. I don't have one near me and I have watched online from time to time, but I totally get that you have to "BE" there to get it. The ONLY thing I hold onto now is Jesus. I haven't gone to Mass much since the pandemic, it's changed. I think the Lord has taken His hands off the Church at the moment until we get to our knees. But it isn't the same, something is missing. Anyway, God bless your work Father. I will pray for you.
It is a battering that the faithful have been taking from the world and in the past decades even worse from the hierarchy. But you are right never to lose you trust in Jesus, never let go of Him. He is fully Wise and fully Strong and fully Loving so He will keep every soul that the Father sent Him to save, including yours. If ever you could get to a TLM, don't worry at all about learning Latin. That comes more or less slowly to everyone. You get familiar with phrases like "Amen" or "Agnus Dei" and are at home with these, and slowly more words become known. And the hand missal is a great help whether one knows Latin or not. And even for priests who say the Mass and Office every day, they are still learning after decades (because some of the the hymns in the Office are so old and poetically written that it is not obvious even to this proficient in Latin exactly what they mean). I think you get it. But hang in there all the way. Who knows: in 5 years the TLM might be in many, many places again. God bless you. You have my prayers.
Stay away from the Novus Ordo. It’s poison. It’s all I knew for almost 30 years (converted to Catholicism in the mid-1980s). If you don’t have a Traditional Mass near you, sanctify Sunday by praying the Traditional Missal (Latin-English) and following a Mass live-streamed or recorded. Also, Latin is very easy to learn and I’m over 60! 😊🙏
Thank you, Father. I just bought your first three books in the series and got them in the mail today! Thank you as always for the clarity with which you teach. My heart is very heavy. My TLM priest is being moved and I will have very limited access to a TLM. I have 8 children to raise in the Faith, but who will lead us and who will give us the Holy sacraments? Please pray for my husband for guidance and for my children for holiness, and for me for trust in Divine Providence.
You have my prayers. If we fight hard and pray harder, who knows if the TLM might return to many places in the next few years. Whoever is the next pope might be a wicked disaster. But the Church cannot sustain many more years of this. I think after that we will have a sound pope -- if God wills -- and our problems will come more from external persecutions than the sick, cruel, insane, anti-Catholic destruction pouring out of Rome today. Have joy in Hope. Jesus has won and is seeing which of us believe Him.
I will add you to my prayers. 8 children, I can't even imagine. I believe your husband will be guided well, as you are both on the same page in your faith. The three of you , your husband, you and Jesus, are a powerful fortress and all will be well for you. It is hard when the ones charged to lead in the faith wilt under pressure, trying to be kind here, but you are blessed to have your husband to lean on.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJMyes, Father, the remnant faithful is a real thing. I know because I recently became one. The Holy Spirit also led me to find you. God bless. ♥️🙏🏼☦️
I have been praying for all traditional Priests and parishioners. GOD WILL PROVIDE. It cannot be easy for you with such need and our right for Catholic guidance for our Salvation. Jesus, Mary and Joseph, petition and be with you.
What this priest has discussed with Fatima Center is beyond wonrds. It is so informative, wonderful simplicity awesome ! He surely is not alone. The Holy Trinity is with him. I wish we had more of the kind. Praise The Lord always.
I'm blessed enough to live in an area that has both the SSPX and diocesan TLM but even the pastor of this traditional diocesan parish does the weekday TLM Epistle and Gospel readings in English at the altar and skip the Latin. The SSPX is the only place I can be sure that the important details won't be tampered with.
"The SSPX is the only place I can be sure that the important details won't be tampered with." Don't go to France: At St. Nicholas of Chardonnay, readings only in English: Reading out the Epistle and Gospel in the vernacular instead of reciting them in Latin has been the practice of the SSPX in France for decades.
@@matthewschmidt5069it's not ... Pope Benedict lifted the excommunication in 2009. Pope Francis ( and no I don't extol him ) used his authority to permit the general to access the sacraments , in 2016. It is irregular in status , but not in schism.
@jojackson1573 Schism means refusal to submit to the Roman Pontiff. SSPX priests have no ordinary. They do not submit to Francis and they reject Vatican II which is a mortal sin. Going there once may be valid per se but anyone who frequents SSPX will be drawn into mortal sin.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much Father Mawdsley and the Fatima Centre for your clear Christ like direction through the Storm we face. The TLM i love so much thanks to your direction towards Truth. God bless Pax
Catholic high schools from 1970- never taught the Epistle and Gospel were part of a sacrifice! etcetera. It makes total sense. Thank you for helping us to educate ourselves. God help us.
And the reason for that is that many CATHOLICS were distracted by Pope John XXIII who prior to 1960 commenced the Ecumenical Council of Vatican 2 and then with POPE Paul VI continued with the DESTRUCTION of All that is CHATHOLIC due to the radical changes formulated by PROTESTANTS. And the FREEMASONS with HIS WORLDLY (NOVUS ORDO) NEW MASS a complete rejection of TRADITION as this is WHY it should be AVOIDED ‼️the work of the DEVIL one WORLD ORDER ! UNAM MONDUM SAECULORUM ‼️a SACRILEGIOUS PRACTICE-that is promoted by ANTI CHATHOLIC. FORMULARS
I’m so glad to hear Fr. Mawdsley talk about how the text of the gospel has been changed. I’ve been mapping other changes to the original text such as “just” and “justice” to “righteous” and “righteousness”, “penance” and “do penance” to “repentance” and “repent”, “presbyter” and to “elder”, and many more. Related to this, there has also been a general dumbing down of scripture over time. These changes, originally introduced by Protestants in order to make the Bible less Catholic, are now mirrored in nearly all Catholic Bibles. Only one Bible translation is free of modernist meddling, that being the Duoay-Rheims, which has been largely ignored by both Protestants and Catholics. Don’t take my word for it, though. Do your own comparisons.
Father, Thank you for this wonderful talk, it has brought me to tears as I miss the TLM. The priest at the novus ordo that I attend is a good man, but is blinded to the lacking in everything. I find it hard to fathom the he talks about how his country of origin has turned to communism yet he's fallen into the same trap in the Faith. I bought your books and showed them to a TLM priest friend of ours, he loves them so much he adopted them. I look forward to ordering more. God bless you Father for all you do for us.
Cardinal Manning, after Vatican I, Fr. Sylvester Berry, Archbishop Sheen, and St. Hildegard ALL discuss the inevitability of an anti-church, which LOOKS like the Catholic Church, uses the same titles and such, but a corrupt worldly doctrine. The institution that emerged after Vatican 2 wasn't the Catholic Church, but an anti-church.
@felixmasis3658 that is great however not everyone has the means (financial, physical etc) to be able to do so. We live nearly 5 hours from the TLM and go once a month, more often if we can, but it is not possible to for everyone to commit to such. While I admire your commitment, it is important to remain charitable and not to imply others need to do more as we don't know their situation. God bless
Mine is once every three weeks and is four hour’s drive across an international border. I try to make every Mass, but sometimes I’m just not up to it health or financial wise. I buy gas in the US because it’s still less money than in Canada! I fill the tank and carry two five gallon cans just in case! If I’m too tired to drive all the way back, I sleep in the back of the truck. (It has a cap.) That’ll only work in the warmer weather. It’s still great to have a Mass to attend after three years without! As for winter, I’ll have to see what happens. We get lots of snow and ice, so I may not be able to go.
Wow Wow WOW! Such an amazing interview. Father Mawdsley is an amazing priest so in love with our Lord and Lady so in love with the faith and true mass! An amazing teacher! God bless you Father and Mr. Rodriguez.
Father James, thank you for sharing the truth with love, clarity, and confidence. I was wondering if there was a way of contacting you via email. I am a teacher at a Catholic school and wondered if you had any wisdom or suggestions in making sure that the school does everything in its power to lead our students along the path of sainthood. If not, I would be very grateful to hear your reply here on the video. Whatever is most convenient for you. May God bless you.
My email is in the 'About' section of this channel. But I don't know what wisdom I can offer, beyond recommending the Five First Saturdays. And if the local priest or teachers will not encourage the parents to have their children do this, then set what example you can. The Rosary. The Sacraments. The Bible. Maybe this is too general to be any help. Perhaps other teachers can add their insights and experiences here?
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM Thank you Father, I will be sure to encourage those beautiful Catholic practices. Please keep us in prayer. On a different note, as you were talking about the beauty of having every Mass said in Latin and how it unites all Catholics during the Mass, no matter which part of the world we are in, I thought about how we are dealing with a Tower of Babel situation with the Novus Ordo. Instead of the vernacular being a remedy, it actually further disunifies the Mystical Body of Christ and weakens us since we no longer all speak the same tongue.
Fr, thank you so much as always. Can you do a catechesis on Venerable Catherine Emmerich? Much of what is happening seems to have been prophecied. On Aug 25, 1822, the gave the following message: August 25, 1822: “She [Our Lady] said that great tribulations were at hand; that the people must pray earnestly with extended arms, if only for the length of three Our Fathers, for it was thus that Her Son had prayed for them upon the Cross; that they should rise at midnight to pray thus; that they should continue to come to Her church which they would always find open; and that they should, above all, pray for the extirpation of the dark church.”
I liked what you said about home vs. the Mass. I've noticed more and more how when people come to Mass, they talk before and after, and sometimes during the Mass. More and more parishioners coming into Mass dressed like they just got out of bed, off the couch, or just got done mowing the lawn. And parishioners drinking and eating snacks during the Mass, it used to be parents providing these things to their children but I've noticed more and more adults breaking out their water bottles and drinking during Mass and eating snacks...like they're going to dehydrate or starve during a one hour Mass!
One of the biggest reasons I will not attend a NO Mass is because I don't want to be stepping on Jesus from all of the particles falling onto the floor from Communion in the hand. 😢
Thank you again. I have read most of Father Mawdsley's books, most excellent! And I am encouraging others to read these wonderful Catholic books. Patricia Mary F
I found a church that celebrates the Latin Mass near me and I’m really excited to attend. I have only attended to new Mass and through my 12 years of Catholic school learned nothing about it and barely learned much about the faith. I have happened to learn things on my own. Every time I attend Mass and begin to pray as soon as I enter, I find it hard to concentrate with everyone talking especially the ushers who are so loud complaining and saying oh my g.. I just think how disrespectful it is. Not that I’m perfect or anything near perfect.
I have had many conversations with my TLM parishioners on this topic. I like your perspective on this topic. I am still learning what does TLM really mean and stand for. So I appreciate the preservation of what has always been. You’re right we aren’t attending a party, we are at Calvary.
I didn't grow up attending Latin Mass, all i knew was the Novus Ordo Mass..I had the opportunity to leave the church, but i never did, because i believe the Catholic church to be the true church, and it was the Novus Ordo Mass that drew me closer to Christ..Your explaination Father on the difference between the Latin Mass and the Novus Ordo is very insightful, I wish i had grown up attending Latin Mass, but unfortunately in my country most of the Masses are Novus Ordo..I'm abit saddened to see the inner fighting and division between persons who prefer the Latin Mass and those who like the Norvus Ordo, this cannot be of the Holy Spirit, our main focus should be on winning souls for Christ..
@ScriptureandTraditionFrJMt hank you so much Fr for the inspiration. We can't thank you enough for all of the sacrifices you offered for the Church through the works of the Holy Ghost.
Note I attend the institute if Christ the King nass as often as I physically can, furthermore I attend a no service in my home parish when I am unable attend a tlm
Wow! I am so blessed I've been guided to listen to you Father you are a wonderful priest. Thank you. Most sacred heart of Jesus pray for us, our Lady of Fatima pray for us.
We in Australia have an extremely protestant watered down Catholic Church ... The rainbow flag has replaced the beautiful tapestry and beautiful paintings that have been painted over with rainbow ideology. Its a mess
That’s awful! It’s one of the reasons I cannot in good conscience attend my novus ordo parish, rainbow flags! We also have two eucharistic ministers who are ss lady partners. I’m in the USA.
@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM The Bishop in my diocese gave our Priest permission to use nonalcoholic wine for Mass. Are our Communions valid? You seemed to indicate that there had to be alcohol. Thank you for your books & this discussion about them. I’ve learned so much. I have all of them so far & looking forward to the rest. ❤🙏🏻
I’m no priest, but I believe it’s invalid. 😢 It has to be made of fermented grapes, not grape juice or chemically altered, and have an alcohol content from 9-18%. I don’t understand why the priest would use grape juice. Do check this out with another priest! You have a right and an obligation to know! What good is an invalid Sacrament? But it’s not your sin if you truly didn’t know. Do not go to that Mass until you find out for sure. If the grape juice is invalid, the Blood of Christ is not present, rendering the entire Mass sacrilegious. There is no sacrifice if there’s no Blood.
If the NO (novus ordo) mass is simply a celebration (in the “party” sense of the word), it’s not even a good party. In fact, it is the most pathetic party I have ever attended.
Thanks so much for these interviews!! I plan on purchasing all four of these books, Father Mawdsley!! Could you please keep me in your prayers, and is there anyway you could sign these books? Pax Tecum, Chris Bates, MDIV, MSW
That is a wise move. I bought all 4 and can't recommend them highly enough. I also get them for others. Fantastic work Father Mawdsley! Before these books I found reading the Old Testament burdensome, after reading these books I have genuine enthusiasm and interest! Thank you!
"How Christ said the First Mass' - by Fr. James Meagher. Very detailed - based on decades on investigation and conversations (in Hebrew) with rabbis in late 19th century Palestine.
Praise God for a Priest speaking the truth about Holy Mass ...Priests are ordained for the specific purpose to act as Priests for Christ...the Holy Mass has been desecrated...we have recorded on line Masses where recorded Music doesn't permit the Congregation to sing hymns which permit them to praise and worship God.Benediction is no longer practiced in parishes and Adoration....The Vatican has desecrated the Holy Mass the Holy Eucharist is desecrated in forcing Gods people to receive in the hand....Our Priests preach from the middle of the Altar....I am hurting about the way there is a total lack of respect ...people talk in church ...in front of the Tabernacle...I taught the Sacraments and deplore the lack of reverence prevailing now....May God forgive these practices which do not show respect any longer...When i speak out I am bullied pray for us .Jesus is truly present in the Most Holy Eucharist and Blessed Sacrament and Holy Tabernacles throughout the world.God will not be mocked any longer.Prayer and fasting is what we are called to help us to become Holy.Come Lord Jesus Come....Holy Spirit renew refresh reform and revive the Catholic Church to honour worship praise adore glorify and love Our Saviour.May the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary Triump!Margi S.A
The Holy Week ceremonies are very different, especially Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday. Also the whole calendar for the year has significant variations. And there are less obvious changes in daily Mass, but significant too. Although the changes are very deleterious, God knows that we are only children, and so He normally makes us aware of it all only gradually. He wakes us up gently so that we do not panic!
Read it in whatever language you like before Mass, and meditate on it. Then when it comes up in Mass you can either simply listen to it chanted, or listen to it spoken, or read along in Latin while it is said, or read along in English while it is said, or whatever you find helps you pay attention best. But it is the reading it before Mass that will help prepare the ground of your soul for it to penetrate deeply in the liturgy. Hope this helps. If it does not work, find out what does -- God made us all different.
I have a friend who gives the same exact responses in regard to the norvus ordo except he goes as far as to say that the Traditional Latin Mass is equal to the NO. It is almost cult like.
That was the position of Benedict XVI: The Roman Missal promulgated by Saint Pius V and revised by Blessed John XXIII is nonetheless to be considered an extraordinary expression of the same lex orandi...for they are two usages of the one Roman rite. (Summorum Pontificum)
Father, is it ok if the Priest reads the Epistle and the Gospel in Latin at the Alter, but then reads them again in English not on the Alter? My priest does this at my church.
If one has to have them said in English, then as long as the Latin is said or chanted first, it is OK (for example if the english version precedes a homily)
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJMFather, I'd like to ask a question about that, too. When the Gospel is repeated in English, should we stand? It recently changed at the Cathedral closest to me. We were told NOT to stand. He said it was in the rubrics of the Mass that we were to sit. Would you please give clarification? Thank you, Fr. Mawdsley.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM Thank you for answering my question. Yes, it is read in English not on the Alter proceeding the homily. And it is read in Latin first on the Alter. God bless you, Father.
@@greatestever6738Thank you. I thought that was the proper way, but the pastor at the Cathedral changed it. We stand for the Gospel when we travel further to the FSSP or SSPX.
So like the tree when you mutilated and remove the important parts, it will not grow or will not survive fruitfully😢 . Return to TLM before its too late. Praying for it.
I don't think we are there yet. And I don't think Bergoglio is influential enough to qualify. And I don't think someone thought to be pope will be so close a collaborator of the AC as the false prophet. Keep hope!
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM thank you for responding! I am grateful for all you do and sincerely hopeful! Follow up Q: if he squashes enough TLMs, this would allow enough e*vl in the world for the AC to operate - then turn the N.O. Operation in to the N W O church. This would coincided with LaSallett which states the apostasy would reach the top. JMB has set up a nice building in Abu Dhabi…it seems like efforts are being made. If JMB is the FP, would you make a public statement to the flock? TY in advance!
I don’t think JMB can possibly be the FP in any scenario. He is not nearly evil enough and the Church is not going through her current troubles in order to fall before the end but to be purified so that even in her Militant members she is rock solid resplendent in Christ to welcome Him when He comes again. JMB is not of apocalyptic importance.
The Vatican has apparently dispatched a squad to meet with bishop Strickland of Texas, possibly to censure him for defending the church against the blasphemy at dodger Stadium. Something is not right with this papacy. Wicked people like James Martin get promoted. Faithful priests silenced. Will it be worse with the false prophet??
Everyone should start asking questions. Try asking the novus ordo pastor why important parts of the Mass have been removed. Or why parishioners do not kneel when receiving the Lord? I tried. He wouldn't answer me. Said he was busy. I sent him the video documentary that answered the question by showing each change. The difference is dramatic!
I have serious doubts about the validity of the Novus Ordo. First, the Form of the Mass was altered from what the Church had defined, this is problematic. Second, the change was done in the context of an "Institution Narrative", not an act "in persona Christi" (St. Thomas tells us the latter is essential). Third, the Novus Ordo has expunged every notion of the true definition of the Mass, so there is no clear indication to the priest that they are to act "in persona Christi".
When I told my RCIA directory about my attending the TLM they were taken back, told me Francis didn't agree with the TLM. They never told me that I should stop attending the TLM, but their message was clear; stop attending the TLM. This person told me they grew up in the TLM. I just can't understand why someone who grew up in the TLM would talk me, a Protestant convert who's fallen absolutely in love with the TLM, out of attending the TLM. Thoughts?
Yes, they’re following Francis, not Christ, whether by good or evil intent, no way to know! Go to the Latin Mass and inquire about studying the traditional catechism. You can also buy a good book or find an online study. For a very basic overview, I recommend the Third Baltimore Catechism with Scriptures and exercises after each chapter. I’m not sure if it’s still in print, but someone used to publish an answer key booklet. Really though, the answers are easily located in each chapter. For an adult, you can use it as a self-teaching course.

Father Mawdsley, hello from Canada. Can you please comment on what St Peter proclaimed to the Jewish people, after Christ, our Lord was Crucified if this same rejection of the cornerstone is the same in the protestantized novus ordo - Sacrifical Altar, which represents Jesus Christ and offered to Holy God, replaced by the "meal table"? St. Peter proclaims Jesus as the cornerstone, without which there could be no Church (Acts 4:11, 1 Pet. 2:6-7). The reference to Jesus as the cornerstone comes from Old Testament passages like Psalm 118:22 and Isaiah 8:4, and refers to the sanctuary or Temple of God where the Israelite people worshipped. I would like to explain this to others attending the Novus Ordo that the Catholic mass is Sacrificial-Roman Rite-Latin, and we are sacrifical Catholics. The Sacrificial Altar is gone! I have in fact used St. Peter's words in Acts 4:11: "This Jesus is 'the Stone rejected by you! I believe it is the same the protestants rejected, as the Jewish people did. Sorry if this is a bit lengthy. In corde Iesu, Mariae et Ioseph
Your comment is certainly not too lengthy, but I don't know if I can give an adequate response here. There is quite a lot in "Crucifixion to Creation" about the necessity of an altar for us to live with God, as also sacrifice -- and that the novus is designed to turn it's back on these in erroneous preference for a meal. You are quite right to identify the "cornerstone" in the Scriptures not only with Christ, but analogously with our altars, for it is upon these that the Church Militant is built. In "If You Believed Moses (Volume 2)", I will attempt to show that Protestantism is actually born from Judaising errors married to Christians with a worldly spirit. The Jews know that sacrifice is essential, yet they are without priesthood and Temple, so they cannot offer the lambs which Moses commanded... except of course that they convert to the true Lamb of God, Jesus Christ. Until then, their aversion to the Catholic altar and priesthood and Holy Sacrifice (all three of these are participations in Jesus Christ), filters through to Christians with weak faith, and is a major contributing factor to the Reformation. Not that we should blame Jews for the Reformation. It is Englishmen who rejected the Faith under Henry and Elizabeth. It is Germans who rejected the Faith to follow Luther. Each carries their own blame. But some Jews acknowledge (even with pride) that the Reformation could hardly have taken off or been sustained if it were not for their influence. I think it is very important for Catholics to understand this. For many decades we have heard that the Mass of Paul VI was composed in order to please Protestants. This is true, but it does not get to the roots. In fact, I believe, the novus ordo was ultimately to fit in with the powerful errors of Judaism, a submission to the spirit of this world. And the answer to this is not that we rail against the Jews but that we take responsibility for ourselves, that we seek to know God through Jesus Christ, love Him above all else, understand how He gives us His Life through Tradition. Then we will never, ever, ever surrender these goods again. And this great witness will be one of the factors which, in the end, helps to provoke the conversion of the Jews. It is a victory of love.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM A great, comprehensive reply for me Father Mawdsley about the "Cornerstore". I can use it for discussions, confidently now! I am home now at the Traditional mass for 1 year now, and I am so grateful to God that the Holy Spirit has led me to the mass for the true and due worship to God. With God's Graces, we are building quite the Community. I see all the erroneous preference for the meal table and abuses in the Novus Ordo, and I've been listening for years of the Bugnini devasting liturgy and all the communist infiltration right to the top, which is has our Church in crisis. I plan to read all your books, and will look for "If You Believed Moses" 1,2- on the protestantism to Jewish roots. It makes SO MUCH sense, it is a reality. I have listend to the majority of your Scripture & Tradition videos, and your talks with Fatima Centre, Kennedy Hall & more...I see this deep connection Cruxifiction to Creation--it is profound for the Latin Mass -- and can be easily shared with others who do not have peace at the protestanized mass. I was one of them, as my Faithful friends. I have listened extensively to your videos during Holy Week, in particular on the Jewish prayers. Absolutely., there's no hatred for Jewish or Protestants; this is all about the roots of how we got here today, and our Hope and love in Jesus Christ, and with the prayers for the Jewish conversion, and all of humanity. Such a gift to hear your talks in this valley of darknesss. I am dedicated to prayers for our good, holy cancelled, persecuted Priests and the good Bishops. I will make my next comments or questions a bit shorter. This "Cornerstone" rejection was really in my heart. Benedicat tibi Dominus🙏🙏🙏
@@christineOfsYou might want to investigate Luther’s bipolar relationship with the Jews. He loved and promoted them early on, but ended in virulent anti-Semitism. Something similar happened with Henry VIII, only not as drastic.
@@mariekatherine5238 Thank you Marie. I will research it. Martin Luther was not of sound mind. I suppose both the Jewish and Protestant theology over the centuries still made its way into the Catholic Church. The Revolution never seems to go away!
This morning our NO priest didn’t make it back from vacation on time for Mass. Deacon filled in. I guess you would call it a Communion service. I wanted to leave. My husband said in ages past when there was no Priest Catholics would get together & pray. It just seemed too Protestant to me. They did everything but consecrate the bread & wine.
I am a bit confused. I've been to many FSSP masses and the readings were ad orientem in the vernacular. In high masses the readings are sung in Latin and then read from the pulpit in the vernacular. Is Father against the standard practise of the FSSP?
Certainly not standard practice. Francis is pushing for it with Trad Cust for Low Masses, but that is to be ignored. He does not have authority to destroy.
You mean IVF? That’s immoral. The man has to perform an impure act to collect sperm. The eggs are surgically removed from the woman. The egg is fertilized in the Petri dish, creating a baby with a soul. The doctors try to implant the baby in the womb to develop, but this is done many times in the hope that one of the babies will implant. Most do not and they either let them die or actually freeze them for use in experiments or making certain vaccines and medications. IVF causes multiple mortal sins. Stay away from it!
When you capitalise the Blood and Body in your question is seems obvious you are asking about the Mass, which is a memorial of Calvary, where Christ poured out all His Blood for us. The life is in the blood. He gave His very Soul for us -- the anima Christi -- and the pouring out of His Blood both symbolises this and actually is Him giving His Life / Soul. The OT animal sacrifices were an anticipation of this. They made sense as a preparation (how else should they kill them, without breaking any bones in their bodies?). But they make no sense post-Crucifixion. So Christians don't really get it (except abstractly). Indeed we recoil from it. It is senseless now.
The TLM etc. has its place where there is a demand for it but I am content with the NO. I hope I speak for many of us Catholics on this. Although Fr JM makes good points such as contamination and that of one language fits all, and meaning not lost in translation, learning Latin wouldn't come easy to all so we'd be once again lost and unfulfilled in the Mass as used to be the case with TLM. Hyperbole comes to mind here. You'd think the priest facing the communicants is in keeping with the Last Supper. That former point about gaslighting comes to mind too but I don't see it. I am against a lot but idea of Women priests or married priests doesn't seem so bad. Still. Although on face of it a lot different it would be nice to see the Orthodox and Catholic come a lot closer together. Distance apart seemed to have had a hand in the schism. Internet perhaps could make a reuniting difference there..They seem more tied than the protestants. With Kind Regards!
Blessing a Sodomic Union is utterly corrupting the word "Blessing" for a Marriage Blessing" is to bring forth children (off springs) The words 'I came from the Father" suggests he came Blessed of the Father whereas The words "I came out of the Father" suggests a rebellion, like Protestantism came Out of Catholicism , not From Catholicism
I agree with the mutilation of the last century, it is clear to see and terrible. One critique I would offer (which comes from research laid out by Fr Cassian Folsom of the Monks of Norcia) is that the development of the liturgy from the time of the Church Fathers up until Trent was not at all a perfect development. Even disregarding abuses that arose from heretics, the liturgy had become "overgrown" with Carolingian Piety which was a problem for Rome (who desired liturgical "sobriety")...therefore many prayers and actions were removed in Trent to prune the overgrowth. The history of the liturgy has never been "perfect" or linear in its development.
Thank you for your comment. If a clarification helps, I believe that the stability of the liturgy from c.1570-1950 indicates that it had reached a 'perfect' proportion. If its development can be likened to a garden, then of course there were those periods of growth and pruning to which you allude. But once the whole has reached maturity, then it needs only a gentle touch to keep it well (whereas before there might be a deal more digging, planting and lopping). I still believe the pre-1955 liturgy is 'perfect', but we have to understand what 'perfect' can mean in the context of liturgy. It is not like drawing a 'perfect' circle. Rather, it is like you have been in love with your spouse for 1570 years and realise you do not want to change anything about them, even loving the signs of age and so-called 'imperfections'. The long-won familiarity reaches a point of perfection.
The Novus Ordo will not survive this century. It was a Mass tailored to fit the Second Vatican Council, which was a council tailor made to fit a specific time-frame with its specific mentality...much unlike Trent, which was meant to reiterate eternal truths. This is not to say that it is sinful, not a pleasing sacrifice (in and of itself), or an affront against God, but rather that it is temporary and will be forgotten about in one way or another.
This priest is heavy duty. 👍
Absolutely!
My son, 16 yrs old and my daughter 20 yrs. old we have been called to The Latin Mass, my son kept desiring more silence … he started saying people should not be talking before or after mass…. We went to our first TLM this past March 16, we traveled 1 1/2 hours and it was so beautiful, I can’t even describe the beautiful depth of what it did to all our hearts!🕊🔥!
As you speak of the Norvus ordo & TLM, my son & my daughter said so many beautiful things after we left the mass, but one thing that hit me hard was my son saying, if children and teens were brought up within this mass we would have more priests and religious…. He said I would love to serve within the TLM.
To see this mass as Coming to Calvary with our Lord, Praise be to God for the enormous gift of the TLM. You continue to enlighten our family as we have entered into this new beautiful journey and experiencing it all, thank you again father for sharing your love and gifts of this mission you have been called too!
Prayers for you daily for your strength & protection 🙏🏻🕊🔥🙏🏻
God Bless you and your children. x
Ave Maria.
Wow. The more I hear this Holy priest, the more I want to hear more.
He is spot on.
God bless you Father.
A friend was telling me that he was recently (last week) at a N.O. Mass and there was a woman dressed in white on the altar purifying the chalice after the distribution of the Holy Eucharist. This is the devastating result of feminism, which, I think (after listening to clever people on this issue like Tim Gordon and Michael knowles), was the gateway to transvestism. When the ideologies of feminism are accepted by men (including clergymen) and women, they become weak and effeminate (full of vices), hence, the mutilation of the Liturgy.
Don't exonerate the heretical MALE priest who allowed such liturgical abuse to indulge *His Modernist Agenda.* Tim Gordon and Michael Knowles blame women/feminism for all modern social problems... while they kiss and caress the common male vices like: drunkenness, drug abuse, domestic abuse, neglect, greed, selfishness, egotism, gambling, pornography, adultery, and criminality. They are too cowardly to correct their own peers, other men, so they pick on those smaller than themselves.
They even blame women for wicked men. That's called MISOGYNY. MEN are transvestites. But the gender-confused, like Gordon and Knowles, blame women for perverted MEN. So it was actually Gordon and Knowles who led to transvestism because of their gender-confusion.
Merriam-Webster definition of Feminism
1: the theory supporting the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes
2: organized activity on behalf of women's rights and interests
If men had fulfilled their obligations, then women would not have even needed equal rights. But unless you were born yesterday, you know that men quit the patriarchy. Men stopped providing for and protecting women, in favor of *their own self-indulgence, which makes men hard-hearted.* Only MISOGYNISTS claim that sinful men are feminine/effeminate. In reality, *sinful men are hard-hearted.* That is what Jesus said: due to the HARDNESS OF THEIR HEARTS. (Matthew 19:8) Tim Gordon got fired, from his teaching job, for his misogyny.
Gordon and Knowles make up their own false, fantasy definition of feminism, as their replacement for *fallen human nature and the 7 deadly sins,* so they can blame women for society's problems, while they kiss and caress the common male vices.
That’s very messed up!
I was a feminist. As an insider, I realized that feminism was the most destructive cultural force in the century. It has seeped through every aspect' politics, medicine, religion and morality. Feminism is a is a marxist dream come true.
Latin is fixed and unchanging (dead language). There is no way to miss interpret it. Can't mess around with meanings. Locks in truth.
English on the other hand (Gay used to mean happy/carefree)(inflation gets bigger) NOW (shopping cart gets smaller)
@@JudeMalachi......... It is dead in the sense that it is not in common usage therefore meanings are now unchangeable (protected by the good Lord)(not much use to sophists)
@@JudeMalachi Latin is indeed a dead language: its morphology, grammar and pronunciation are fixed. Translating new words into Latin doesn't make Latin a living language.
I spent most of my Life in Novus Ordo. There is a disconnect, a vagueness relating to the Gospel of Redemption. There is almost no sense of the intensity of the need to be saved, the corruptibility of man, and the utter need to rely and depend upon God, and to submit and surrender to Him. There is no sense of Communion with God, and no sense of the sacrifice of Christ and our desperate need for it, a mortal need for it.
There is nothing historic to the Novus Ordo, nothing Patriarchal, nothing sacrificial, no connection to, or continuity with the past of, the human race. It's a severance of Christ from Adam, and us from Christ.
It's INSANE. And it is amazing how the Church can be ruined by bad formation, withheld truth, disconnection between teachings and rites.
I mean, the change in Confirmation! Don't specify WHY the Holy Ghost is being asked to pour Himself out for? Protestants can pray for the Holy Spirit, but they cannot call down the Holy Spirit permanently outside of illicit Baptism.
This is awesome insight on the Mass. I am 59 and only have known the Novus Ordo. To be honest from the heart, all this in fighting on the Mass, the lock down of the church during pandemic, the sex abuse scandals still going on, the pagan ceremony at the vatican in '19, the lack of acknowledgement by the Pope and the USCCB on the outspoken defiance of Pelosi and Biden on abortion has left me shattered, angry and distrustful of the church. I am too old to learn latin and have been robbed of so much, the more I hear about the latin mass. I don't have one near me and I have watched online from time to time, but I totally get that you have to "BE" there to get it. The ONLY thing I hold onto now is Jesus. I haven't gone to Mass much since the pandemic, it's changed. I think the Lord has taken His hands off the Church at the moment until we get to our knees. But it isn't the same, something is missing. Anyway, God bless your work Father. I will pray for you.
It is a battering that the faithful have been taking from the world and in the past decades even worse from the hierarchy. But you are right never to lose you trust in Jesus, never let go of Him. He is fully Wise and fully Strong and fully Loving so He will keep every soul that the Father sent Him to save, including yours.
If ever you could get to a TLM, don't worry at all about learning Latin. That comes more or less slowly to everyone. You get familiar with phrases like "Amen" or "Agnus Dei" and are at home with these, and slowly more words become known. And the hand missal is a great help whether one knows Latin or not. And even for priests who say the Mass and Office every day, they are still learning after decades (because some of the the hymns in the Office are so old and poetically written that it is not obvious even to this proficient in Latin exactly what they mean).
I think you get it. But hang in there all the way. Who knows: in 5 years the TLM might be in many, many places again. God bless you. You have my prayers.
Thank you Father for your words of encouragement and most importantly your prayers. 🙏
You don't need to learn Latin, our Missal has Latin one side and English on the other, so you can follow along easily.
Are you sure there is not a TLM near you?
Stay away from the Novus Ordo. It’s poison. It’s all I knew for almost 30 years (converted to Catholicism in the mid-1980s). If you don’t have a Traditional Mass near you, sanctify Sunday by praying the Traditional Missal (Latin-English) and following a Mass live-streamed or recorded. Also, Latin is very easy to learn and I’m over 60! 😊🙏
Fr. James is such an incredible shepherd 🙏praise be to God for this holy priest. Lord, please protect him!
Thank you, Father. I just bought your first three books in the series and got them in the mail today! Thank you as always for the clarity with which you teach. My heart is very heavy. My TLM priest is being moved and I will have very limited access to a TLM. I have 8 children to raise in the Faith, but who will lead us and who will give us the Holy sacraments? Please pray for my husband for guidance and for my children for holiness, and for me for trust in Divine Providence.
You have my prayers. If we fight hard and pray harder, who knows if the TLM might return to many places in the next few years. Whoever is the next pope might be a wicked disaster. But the Church cannot sustain many more years of this. I think after that we will have a sound pope -- if God wills -- and our problems will come more from external persecutions than the sick, cruel, insane, anti-Catholic destruction pouring out of Rome today.
Have joy in Hope. Jesus has won and is seeing which of us believe Him.
I will add you to my prayers. 8 children, I can't even imagine. I believe your husband will be guided well, as you are both on the same page in your faith. The three of you , your husband, you and Jesus, are a powerful fortress and all will be well for you. It is hard when the ones charged to lead in the faith wilt under pressure, trying to be kind here, but you are blessed to have your husband to lean on.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJMyes, Father, the remnant faithful is a real thing. I know because I recently became one. The Holy Spirit also led me to find you. God bless. ♥️🙏🏼☦️
@@theherbalsanctuary811 I really appreciate that. Thank you.
I have been praying for all traditional Priests and parishioners. GOD WILL PROVIDE. It cannot be easy for you with such need and our right for Catholic guidance for our Salvation. Jesus, Mary and Joseph, petition and be with you.
Well explained Fr. JM . As i have read your 3rd book i am sad and ask myself why they change the mass. 😢 Thank you for this video . God bless
What this priest has discussed with Fatima Center is beyond wonrds. It is so informative, wonderful simplicity awesome ! He surely is not alone. The Holy Trinity is with him. I wish we had more of the kind. Praise The Lord always.
I'm blessed enough to live in an area that has both the SSPX and diocesan TLM but even the pastor of this traditional diocesan parish does the weekday TLM Epistle and Gospel readings in English at the altar and skip the Latin. The SSPX is the only place I can be sure that the important details won't be tampered with.
SSPX is a recognize and resist group, not good, cause they are offering the Holy sacrifice of the mass in union with a heretic.
The SSPX is in schism against the See of Peter.
"The SSPX is the only place I can be sure that the important details won't be tampered with." Don't go to France:
At St. Nicholas of Chardonnay, readings only in English:
Reading out the Epistle and Gospel in the vernacular instead of reciting them in Latin has been the practice of the SSPX in France for decades.
@@matthewschmidt5069it's not ... Pope Benedict lifted the excommunication in 2009. Pope Francis ( and no I don't extol him ) used his authority to permit the general to access the sacraments , in 2016. It is irregular in status , but not in schism.
@jojackson1573 Schism means refusal to submit to the Roman Pontiff. SSPX priests have no ordinary. They do not submit to Francis and they reject Vatican II which is a mortal sin. Going there once may be valid per se but anyone who frequents SSPX will be drawn into mortal sin.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much Father Mawdsley and the Fatima Centre for your clear Christ like direction through the Storm we face.
The TLM i love so much thanks to your direction towards Truth.
God bless Pax
Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! Truly enlightening! Thank you both!
This should go viral on all platforms
Yes!
You found the perfect words.
Catholic high schools from 1970- never taught the Epistle and Gospel were part of a sacrifice! etcetera. It makes total sense. Thank you for helping us to educate ourselves.
God help us.
And the reason for that is that many CATHOLICS were distracted by Pope John XXIII who prior to 1960 commenced the Ecumenical Council of Vatican 2 and then with POPE Paul VI continued with the DESTRUCTION of All that is CHATHOLIC due to the radical changes formulated by PROTESTANTS. And the FREEMASONS with HIS WORLDLY (NOVUS ORDO) NEW MASS a complete rejection of TRADITION as this is WHY it should be AVOIDED ‼️the work of the DEVIL one WORLD ORDER ! UNAM MONDUM SAECULORUM ‼️a SACRILEGIOUS PRACTICE-that is promoted by ANTI CHATHOLIC. FORMULARS
Fr JM and Michael Davies. God bless them
I’m so glad to hear Fr. Mawdsley talk about how the text of the gospel has been changed. I’ve been mapping other changes to the original text such as “just” and “justice” to “righteous” and “righteousness”, “penance” and “do penance” to “repentance” and “repent”, “presbyter” and to “elder”, and many more. Related to this, there has also been a general dumbing down of scripture over time.
These changes, originally introduced by Protestants in order to make the Bible less Catholic, are now mirrored in nearly all Catholic Bibles. Only one Bible translation is free of modernist meddling, that being the Duoay-Rheims, which has been largely ignored by both Protestants and Catholics.
Don’t take my word for it, though. Do your own comparisons.
Father, Thank you for this wonderful talk, it has brought me to tears as I miss the TLM. The priest at the novus ordo that I attend is a good man, but is blinded to the lacking in everything. I find it hard to fathom the he talks about how his country of origin has turned to communism yet he's fallen into the same trap in the Faith. I bought your books and showed them to a TLM priest friend of ours, he loves them so much he adopted them. I look forward to ordering more. God bless you Father for all you do for us.
I agree with you 100%. Thank you for sharing, God bless this faithful Priest. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Father! God bless and may our Blessed Mother keep you and yours!
“It’s like two churches”. AK Emmerich. Two churches. Two popes. Two destinations. Which does the soul choose?

@@connieaguayo9591☝ the truth!!
Cardinal Manning, after Vatican I, Fr. Sylvester Berry, Archbishop Sheen, and St. Hildegard ALL discuss the inevitability of an anti-church, which LOOKS like the Catholic Church, uses the same titles and such, but a corrupt worldly doctrine. The institution that emerged after Vatican 2 wasn't the Catholic Church, but an anti-church.
Absolutely- I wish I had a TLM close to me- the closest one is 3 hours away :/
I would attend even if I have to drive 5 hrs
@felixmasis3658 that is great however not everyone has the means (financial, physical etc) to be able to do so. We live nearly 5 hours from the TLM and go once a month, more often if we can, but it is not possible to for everyone to commit to such. While I admire your commitment, it is important to remain charitable and not to imply others need to do more as we don't know their situation. God bless
Mine is once every three weeks and is four hour’s drive across an international border. I try to make every Mass, but sometimes I’m just not up to it health or financial wise. I buy gas in the US because it’s still less money than in Canada! I fill the tank and carry two five gallon cans just in case! If I’m too tired to drive all the way back, I sleep in the back of the truck. (It has a cap.) That’ll only work in the warmer weather. It’s still great to have a Mass to attend after three years without! As for winter, I’ll have to see what happens. We get lots of snow and ice, so I may not be able to go.
Wow Wow WOW! Such an amazing interview. Father Mawdsley is an amazing priest so in love with our Lord and Lady so in love with the faith and true mass! An amazing teacher! God bless you Father and Mr. Rodriguez.
Your explanations Father are very enlightening ! Thank you
May God Bless you
Oh Father thank you for your truthfulness,may the good Lord bless you and your work,
Outstanding as usual
I really enjoy your channel. I attend TLM every week. Learning how to pray in Latin ✝️❤️🙏🏼
Father James, thank you for sharing the truth with love, clarity, and confidence. I was wondering if there was a way of contacting you via email. I am a teacher at a Catholic school and wondered if you had any wisdom or suggestions in making sure that the school does everything in its power to lead our students along the path of sainthood. If not, I would be very grateful to hear your reply here on the video. Whatever is most convenient for you. May God bless you.
My email is in the 'About' section of this channel.
But I don't know what wisdom I can offer, beyond recommending the Five First Saturdays. And if the local priest or teachers will not encourage the parents to have their children do this, then set what example you can.
The Rosary. The Sacraments. The Bible.
Maybe this is too general to be any help. Perhaps other teachers can add their insights and experiences here?
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM Thank you Father, I will be sure to encourage those beautiful Catholic practices. Please keep us in prayer. On a different note, as you were talking about the beauty of having every Mass said in Latin and how it unites all Catholics during the Mass, no matter which part of the world we are in, I thought about how we are dealing with a Tower of Babel situation with the Novus Ordo. Instead of the vernacular being a remedy, it actually further disunifies the Mystical Body of Christ and weakens us since we no longer all speak the same tongue.
The sad part there are people that grew up with the Latin mass think there is nothing wrong with this
This talk is awesome to me. Thankyou!! God bless you both
O my Father! It makes complete sence what you say about the devestation of the Holy Communion in the N.O.
Excellent
I want to listen to Father forever ..... even if my I.Q. is way below his. Father is brilliant!
BRAVO Fr!
Dominus Vobiscum!
Fr, thank you so much as always. Can you do a catechesis on Venerable Catherine Emmerich? Much of what is happening seems to have been prophecied.
On Aug 25, 1822, the gave the following message:
August 25, 1822:
“She [Our Lady] said that great tribulations were at hand; that the people must pray earnestly with extended arms, if only for the length of three Our Fathers, for it was thus that Her Son had prayed for them upon the Cross; that they should rise at midnight to pray thus; that they should continue to come to Her church which they would always find open; and that they should, above all, pray for the extirpation of the dark church.”
Blessings and appreciation from Sydney Australia .
I liked what you said about home vs. the Mass. I've noticed more and more how when people come to Mass, they talk before and after, and sometimes during the Mass. More and more parishioners coming into Mass dressed like they just got out of bed, off the couch, or just got done mowing the lawn. And parishioners drinking and eating snacks during the Mass, it used to be parents providing these things to their children but I've noticed more and more adults breaking out their water bottles and drinking during Mass and eating snacks...like they're going to dehydrate or starve during a one hour Mass!
One of the biggest reasons I will not attend a NO Mass is because I don't want to be stepping on Jesus from all of the particles falling onto the floor from Communion in the hand. 😢
This even brought us to stop going to diocesan TLMs because they are held after NO masses where hundreds practice this 😢
And to be obliged to receive communion in the hand from one of the women in baggy pants and saggy arms.
@@theresagoldschmidt8740😂 If TLM priest has baggy pants and saggy arms, you don’t have to see it!
Thank you again. I have read most of Father Mawdsley's books, most excellent! And I am encouraging others to read these wonderful Catholic books. Patricia Mary F
Thanks for the clarity.
I found a church that celebrates the Latin Mass near me and I’m really excited to attend. I have only attended to new Mass and through my 12 years of Catholic school learned nothing about it and barely learned much about the faith. I have happened to learn things on my own. Every time I attend Mass and begin to pray as soon as I enter, I find it hard to concentrate with everyone talking especially the ushers who are so loud complaining and saying oh my g.. I just think how disrespectful it is. Not that I’m perfect or anything near perfect.
Praise be to God ! Thank you Dear Lord for giving us good and holy priests. May God bless you, Father Mawdsley 🙏
I have had many conversations with my TLM parishioners on this topic. I like your perspective on this topic. I am still learning what does TLM really mean and stand for. So I appreciate the preservation of what has always been. You’re right we aren’t attending a party, we are at Calvary.
Why is every pope after the council being canonized if they allowed the destruction of the mass of the ages?
I didn't grow up attending Latin Mass, all i knew was the Novus Ordo Mass..I had the opportunity to leave the church, but i never did, because i believe the Catholic church to be the true church, and it was the Novus Ordo Mass that drew me closer to Christ..Your explaination Father on the difference between the Latin Mass and the Novus Ordo is very insightful, I wish i had grown up attending Latin Mass, but unfortunately in my country most of the Masses are Novus Ordo..I'm abit saddened to see the inner fighting and division between persons who prefer the Latin Mass and those who like the Norvus Ordo, this cannot be of the Holy Spirit, our main focus should be on winning souls for Christ..
Glória Tibi Domine, Laus Tibi Christe!!!
God bless you Father
Super Super glorious Verità.Grazie …
@ScriptureandTraditionFrJMt hank you so much Fr for the inspiration. We can't thank you enough for all of the sacrifices you offered for the Church through the works of the Holy Ghost.
Women priests cannot stand in the place of Jesus and state "This is my body". How can a woman stand in the place of Christ?
Thank you.
Note I attend the institute if Christ the King nass as often as I physically can, furthermore I attend a no service in my home parish when I am unable attend a tlm
Wow! I am so blessed I've been guided to listen to you Father you are a wonderful priest. Thank you. Most sacred heart of Jesus pray for us, our Lady of Fatima pray for us.
Biggest battle cry for the protection of the greatest jewel of a shepherd!
This perfectly captures the reality/identity of the Novus Ordo, which I know is another and a different church.
Do not exaggerate, it's not a different Church. Criticise without indulging in blasphemy.
We in Australia have an extremely protestant watered down Catholic Church ...
The rainbow flag has replaced the beautiful tapestry and beautiful paintings that have been painted over with rainbow ideology.
Its a mess
Don’t go to any “church” that has displayed that blasphemous flag. It’s not Catholic.
Ta
That’s awful! It’s one of the reasons I cannot in good conscience attend my novus ordo parish, rainbow flags! We also have two eucharistic ministers who are ss lady partners. I’m in the USA.
Ask yourself a question? Is god present or absent in any form of Novus Ordo?

@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM The Bishop in my diocese gave our Priest permission to use nonalcoholic wine for Mass. Are our Communions valid? You seemed to indicate that there had to be alcohol.
Thank you for your books & this discussion about them. I’ve learned so much. I have all of them so far & looking forward to the rest. ❤🙏🏻
Short answer: no, those "masses" are not valid because they don't use the proper matter.
Likely invalid.
Usually those indolts are given because a priest may have an inclination to alcoholism.
I’m no priest, but I believe it’s invalid. 😢 It has to be made of fermented grapes, not grape juice or chemically altered, and have an alcohol content from 9-18%. I don’t understand why the priest would use grape juice. Do check this out with another priest! You have a right and an obligation to know! What good is an invalid Sacrament? But it’s not your sin if you truly didn’t know. Do not go to that Mass until you find out for sure. If the grape juice is invalid, the Blood of Christ is not present, rendering the entire Mass sacrilegious. There is no sacrifice if there’s no Blood.
If the NO (novus ordo) mass is simply a celebration (in the “party” sense of the word), it’s not even a good party. In fact, it is the most pathetic party I have ever attended.
Deo Gratias Father- Thank you for being a warrior for Christ.
Fr Mawdsley speaks no lie.
Thanks so much for these interviews!!
I plan on purchasing all four of these books, Father Mawdsley!! Could you please keep me in your prayers, and is there anyway you could sign these books?

Praise God for a Priest speaking the truth about Holy Mass ...Priests are ordained for the specific purpose to act as Priests for Christ...the Holy Mass has been desecrated...we have recorded on line Masses where recorded Music doesn't permit the Congregation to sing hymns which permit them to praise and worship God.Benediction is no longer practiced in parishes and Adoration....The Vatican has desecrated the Holy Mass the Holy Eucharist is desecrated in forcing Gods people to receive in the hand....Our Priests preach from the middle of the Altar....I am hurting about the way there is a total lack of respect ...people talk in church ...in front of the Tabernacle...I taught the Sacraments and deplore the lack of reverence prevailing now....May God forgive these practices which do not show respect any longer...When i speak out I am bullied pray for us .Jesus is truly present in the Most Holy Eucharist and Blessed Sacrament and Holy Tabernacles throughout the world.God will not be mocked any longer.Prayer and fasting is what we are called to help us to become Holy.Come Lord Jesus Come....Holy Spirit renew refresh reform and revive the Catholic Church to honour worship praise adore glorify and love Our Saviour.May the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary Triump!Margi S.A
What is the difference between the 1954 Missal and the 1962 Missal?
The Holy Week ceremonies are very different, especially Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday.
Also the whole calendar for the year has significant variations.
And there are less obvious changes in daily Mass, but significant too.
Although the changes are very deleterious, God knows that we are only children, and so He normally makes us aware of it all only gradually. He wakes us up gently so that we do not panic!
My question is then do we as lay people read the Gospel in English ourselves? Otherwise, we would miss it. Should we learn Latin to read the Gospels?
Read it in whatever language you like before Mass, and meditate on it. Then when it comes up in Mass you can either simply listen to it chanted, or listen to it spoken, or read along in Latin while it is said, or read along in English while it is said, or whatever you find helps you pay attention best. But it is the reading it before Mass that will help prepare the ground of your soul for it to penetrate deeply in the liturgy.
Hope this helps. If it does not work, find out what does -- God made us all different.
Meraviglioso …
I have a friend who gives the same exact responses in regard to the norvus ordo except he goes as far as to say that the Traditional Latin Mass is equal to the NO. It is almost cult like.
That was the position of Benedict XVI: The Roman Missal promulgated by Saint Pius V and revised by Blessed John XXIII is nonetheless to be considered an extraordinary expression of the same lex orandi...for they are two usages of the one Roman rite. (Summorum Pontificum)
These things you speak of father are non denominational Evangelical Protestant Churches.
I am rooting for Russia too.
And for their slaughter of innocent children?
@@matthewschmidt5069 We're not talking about war.
@carolynkimberly4021 What are you talking about then? Your comment is dangerously ambiguous.
The novus ordo around me wants everyone to stand up and greet people before the priest processes down the aisle
Father, is it ok if the Priest reads the Epistle and the Gospel in Latin at the Alter, but then reads them again in English not on the Alter? My priest does this at my church.
If one has to have them said in English, then as long as the Latin is said or chanted first, it is OK (for example if the english version precedes a homily)
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJMFather, I'd like to ask a question about that, too. When the Gospel is repeated in English, should we stand? It recently changed at the Cathedral closest to me. We were told NOT to stand. He said it was in the rubrics of the Mass that we were to sit. Would you please give clarification? Thank you, Fr. Mawdsley.
@@carolynhernandez1596 We stand when it read in English.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM Thank you for answering my question. Yes, it is read in English not on the Alter proceeding the homily. And it is read in Latin first on the Alter. God bless you, Father.
@@greatestever6738Thank you. I thought that was the proper way, but the pastor at the Cathedral changed it. We stand for the Gospel when we travel further to the FSSP or SSPX.
The NO Rite is spiritual anorexia.
Mind completely blown away at 12:08 to 12:20
So like the tree when you mutilated and remove the important parts, it will not grow or will not survive fruitfully😢 . Return to TLM before its too late. Praying for it.
Father, sincere Q: Have you considered that JM Bergoglio is the False Prophet to the AC? Thank you for all you do🌠
I don't think we are there yet. And I don't think Bergoglio is influential enough to qualify. And I don't think someone thought to be pope will be so close a collaborator of the AC as the false prophet.
Keep hope!
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM thank you for responding! I am grateful for all you do and sincerely hopeful! Follow up Q: if he squashes enough TLMs, this would allow enough e*vl in the world for the AC to operate - then turn the N.O. Operation in to the N W O church. This would coincided with LaSallett which states the apostasy would reach the top. JMB has set up a nice building in Abu Dhabi…it seems like efforts are being made. If JMB is the FP, would you make a public statement to the flock? TY in advance!
I don’t think JMB can possibly be the FP in any scenario. He is not nearly evil enough and the Church is not going through her current troubles in order to fall before the end but to be purified so that even in her Militant members she is rock solid resplendent in Christ to welcome Him when He comes again. JMB is not of apocalyptic importance.
The Vatican has apparently dispatched a squad to meet with bishop Strickland of Texas, possibly to censure him for defending the church against the blasphemy at dodger Stadium. Something is not right with this papacy. Wicked people like James
Martin get promoted. Faithful priests silenced. Will it be worse with the false prophet??
READ - Fr. Cekada's “ Work of Human Hands”
Everyone should start asking questions. Try asking the novus ordo pastor why important parts of the Mass have been removed. Or why parishioners do not kneel when receiving the Lord? I tried. He wouldn't answer me. Said he was busy. I sent him the video documentary that answered the question by showing each change. The difference is dramatic!
I have serious doubts about the validity of the Novus Ordo. First, the Form of the Mass was altered from what the Church had defined, this is problematic. Second, the change was done in the context of an "Institution Narrative", not an act "in persona Christi" (St. Thomas tells us the latter is essential). Third, the Novus Ordo has expunged every notion of the true definition of the Mass, so there is no clear indication to the priest that they are to act "in persona Christi".
LICH, can you father make episode about Cassiciacum thesis?
Most Holy Trinity Seminary web site has articles on this.
@@littlerock5256Yes. I know. Institute Mother Boni Concilii too. But maybe Father will interested it?
Does not Mr David Rodriguez a recognize and resist Catholic?
When I told my RCIA directory about my attending the TLM they were taken back, told me Francis didn't agree with the TLM. They never told me that I should stop attending the TLM, but their message was clear; stop attending the TLM. This person told me they grew up in the TLM. I just can't understand why someone who grew up in the TLM would talk me, a Protestant convert who's fallen absolutely in love with the TLM, out of attending the TLM. Thoughts?
Yes, they’re following Francis, not Christ, whether by good or evil intent, no way to know! Go to the Latin Mass and inquire about studying the traditional catechism. You can also buy a good book or find an online study. For a very basic overview, I recommend the Third Baltimore Catechism with Scriptures and exercises after each chapter. I’m not sure if it’s still in print, but someone used to publish an answer key booklet. Really though, the answers are easily located in each chapter. For an adult, you can use it as a self-teaching course.
@@mariekatherine5238 yes wonderful idea, I just saw all the Baltimore catechism’s on Baronius Press website.
Did Jesus not state"where two if more if you are gathered in my name I am at your side!"
I cannot find a link or site that is selling the new book If you believed Moses in Hardback in Canada, any help with this?

So Paul vi and jp2 let this evil happen?
I FEEL LIKE SAYING; THEY HAVE TAKEN MY LORD; AND I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO FIND HIM! YOU ARE SO VERY RIGHT FATHER! IF PEOPLE can't SEE WHY THE STATUES of JESUS and MARY; ARE CRYING TEARS OF BLOOD; then I DON'T Understand what they THINK! AND STILL DRIVING THE NAILS INTO HIS PRECIOUS HANDS; THIS WAY! BY ALLOWING REGULAR PEOPLE TO TOUCH OUR DEAREST LORD'S BODY WITH UNCLEAN HANDS!!! I was shown this when I was; in kindergarten! In a Dream Vision! I was taken at Midnight across from my beloved church. And shown so many dark hooded men all the way down the side street. (LAFAYETTE) I know it was LAFAYETTE because I was so afraid that I would get in the wrong line to go home after school! So I know I was in school! But I was shown this at such a young age! I'm 7th born of 10 children. My Parents had a second conversion When they heard about Our Lady of FATIMA! They had 2 children then and were going to move to Florida! But after hearing of FATIMA! They stayed in Trenton and we lived all About God and Heaven! I am So Blessed to be the daughter of 2 Most Amazing Parents! My Father would Love to Listen to You Father! And I'm positive they would have read All of your books!
Father Mawdsley, hello from Canada. Can you please comment on what St Peter proclaimed to the Jewish people, after Christ, our Lord was Crucified if this same rejection of the cornerstone is the same in the protestantized novus ordo - Sacrifical Altar, which represents Jesus Christ and offered to Holy God, replaced by the "meal table"? St. Peter proclaims Jesus as the cornerstone, without which there could be no Church (Acts 4:11, 1 Pet. 2:6-7). The reference to Jesus as the cornerstone comes from Old Testament passages like Psalm 118:22 and Isaiah 8:4, and refers to the sanctuary or Temple of God where the Israelite people worshipped. I would like to explain this to others attending the Novus Ordo that the Catholic mass is Sacrificial-Roman Rite-Latin, and we are sacrifical Catholics. The Sacrificial Altar is gone! I have in fact used St. Peter's words in Acts 4:11: "This Jesus is 'the Stone rejected by you! I believe it is the same the protestants rejected, as the Jewish people did. Sorry if this is a bit lengthy. In corde Iesu, Mariae et Ioseph
Your comment is certainly not too lengthy, but I don't know if I can give an adequate response here. There is quite a lot in "Crucifixion to Creation" about the necessity of an altar for us to live with God, as also sacrifice -- and that the novus is designed to turn it's back on these in erroneous preference for a meal. You are quite right to identify the "cornerstone" in the Scriptures not only with Christ, but analogously with our altars, for it is upon these that the Church Militant is built.
In "If You Believed Moses (Volume 2)", I will attempt to show that Protestantism is actually born from Judaising errors married to Christians with a worldly spirit. The Jews know that sacrifice is essential, yet they are without priesthood and Temple, so they cannot offer the lambs which Moses commanded... except of course that they convert to the true Lamb of God, Jesus Christ. Until then, their aversion to the Catholic altar and priesthood and Holy Sacrifice (all three of these are participations in Jesus Christ), filters through to Christians with weak faith, and is a major contributing factor to the Reformation. Not that we should blame Jews for the Reformation. It is Englishmen who rejected the Faith under Henry and Elizabeth. It is Germans who rejected the Faith to follow Luther. Each carries their own blame. But some Jews acknowledge (even with pride) that the Reformation could hardly have taken off or been sustained if it were not for their influence.
I think it is very important for Catholics to understand this. For many decades we have heard that the Mass of Paul VI was composed in order to please Protestants. This is true, but it does not get to the roots. In fact, I believe, the novus ordo was ultimately to fit in with the powerful errors of Judaism, a submission to the spirit of this world. And the answer to this is not that we rail against the Jews but that we take responsibility for ourselves, that we seek to know God through Jesus Christ, love Him above all else, understand how He gives us His Life through Tradition. Then we will never, ever, ever surrender these goods again. And this great witness will be one of the factors which, in the end, helps to provoke the conversion of the Jews. It is a victory of love.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM A great, comprehensive reply for me Father Mawdsley about the "Cornerstore". I can use it for discussions, confidently now! I am home now at the Traditional mass for 1 year now, and I am so grateful to God that the Holy Spirit has led me to the mass for the true and due worship to God. With God's Graces, we are building quite the Community. I see all the erroneous preference for the meal table and abuses in the Novus Ordo, and I've been listening for years of the Bugnini devasting liturgy and all the communist infiltration right to the top, which is has our Church in crisis. I plan to read all your books, and will look for "If You Believed Moses" 1,2- on the protestantism to Jewish roots. It makes SO MUCH sense, it is a reality. I have listend to the majority of your Scripture & Tradition videos, and your talks with Fatima Centre, Kennedy Hall & more...I see this deep connection Cruxifiction to Creation--it is profound for the Latin Mass -- and can be easily shared with others who do not have peace at the protestanized mass. I was one of them, as my Faithful friends. I have listened extensively to your videos during Holy Week, in particular on the Jewish prayers. Absolutely., there's no hatred for Jewish or Protestants; this is all about the roots of how we got here today, and our Hope and love in Jesus Christ, and with the prayers for the Jewish conversion, and all of humanity. Such a gift to hear your talks in this valley of darknesss. I am dedicated to prayers for our good, holy cancelled, persecuted Priests and the good Bishops. I will make my next comments or questions a bit shorter. This "Cornerstone" rejection was really in my heart. Benedicat tibi Dominus🙏🙏🙏
@@christineOfsYou might want to investigate Luther’s bipolar relationship with the Jews. He loved and promoted them early on, but ended in virulent anti-Semitism. Something similar happened with Henry VIII, only not as drastic.
@@mariekatherine5238 Thank you Marie. I will research it. Martin Luther was not of sound mind. I suppose both the Jewish and Protestant theology over the centuries still made its way into the Catholic Church. The Revolution never seems to go away!
This morning our NO priest didn’t make it back from vacation on time for Mass. Deacon filled in. I guess you would call it a Communion service. I wanted to leave. My husband said in ages past when there was no Priest Catholics would get together & pray. It just seemed too Protestant to me. They did everything but consecrate the bread & wine.
I am a bit confused. I've been to many FSSP masses and the readings were ad orientem in the vernacular. In high masses the readings are sung in Latin and then read from the pulpit in the vernacular. Is Father against the standard practise of the FSSP?
No. The problem, wherever, is omitting the Latin.
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM Right. But ommiting the Latin is standard practise in the FSSP, isn't it? It is in the chapel I frequent at least.
Certainly not standard practice. Francis is pushing for it with Trad Cust for Low Masses, but that is to be ignored. He does not have authority to destroy.
what if it is conceived in a dish ?
You mean IVF? That’s immoral. The man has to perform an impure act to collect sperm. The eggs are surgically removed from the woman. The egg is fertilized in the Petri dish, creating a baby with a soul. The doctors try to implant the baby in the womb to develop, but this is done many times in the hope that one of the babies will implant. Most do not and they either let them die or actually freeze them for use in experiments or making certain vaccines and medications. IVF causes multiple mortal sins. Stay away from it!
Why is the Blood separate from the Body? Does this have to do with OT sacrifice?
It shows Calvary
@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM Draining the blood from an animal as a method of slaughtering it is not something gen(iles easily understand.
When you capitalise the Blood and Body in your question is seems obvious you are asking about the Mass, which is a memorial of Calvary, where Christ poured out all His Blood for us. The life is in the blood. He gave His very Soul for us -- the anima Christi -- and the pouring out of His Blood both symbolises this and actually is Him giving His Life / Soul.
The OT animal sacrifices were an anticipation of this. They made sense as a preparation (how else should they kill them, without breaking any bones in their bodies?). But they make no sense post-Crucifixion. So Christians don't really get it (except abstractly). Indeed we recoil from it. It is senseless now.
The TLM etc. has its place where there is a demand for it but I am content with the NO. I hope I speak for many of us Catholics on this. Although Fr JM makes good points such as contamination and that of one language fits all, and meaning not lost in translation, learning Latin wouldn't come easy to all so we'd be once again lost and unfulfilled in the Mass as used to be the case with TLM. Hyperbole comes to mind here. You'd think the priest facing the communicants is in keeping with the Last Supper. That former point about gaslighting comes to mind too but I don't see it. I am against a lot but idea of Women priests or married priests doesn't seem so bad. Still. Although on face of it a lot different it would be nice to see the Orthodox and Catholic come a lot closer together. Distance apart seemed to have had a hand in the schism. Internet perhaps could make a reuniting difference there..They seem more tied than the protestants. With Kind Regards!
Blessing a Sodomic Union is utterly corrupting the word "Blessing" for a Marriage Blessing" is to bring forth children (off springs)
The words 'I came from the Father" suggests he came Blessed of the Father whereas The words "I came out of the Father" suggests a rebellion, like Protestantism came Out of Catholicism , not From Catholicism
🔥🔥🔥
greeeaatttt
I just want to know if Christ is really present in the new mass. I
I agree with the mutilation of the last century, it is clear to see and terrible. One critique I would offer (which comes from research laid out by Fr Cassian Folsom of the Monks of Norcia) is that the development of the liturgy from the time of the Church Fathers up until Trent was not at all a perfect development. Even disregarding abuses that arose from heretics, the liturgy had become "overgrown" with Carolingian Piety which was a problem for Rome (who desired liturgical "sobriety")...therefore many prayers and actions were removed in Trent to prune the overgrowth. The history of the liturgy has never been "perfect" or linear in its development.
Thank you for your comment. If a clarification helps, I believe that the stability of the liturgy from c.1570-1950 indicates that it had reached a 'perfect' proportion. If its development can be likened to a garden, then of course there were those periods of growth and pruning to which you allude. But once the whole has reached maturity, then it needs only a gentle touch to keep it well (whereas before there might be a deal more digging, planting and lopping).
I still believe the pre-1955 liturgy is 'perfect', but we have to understand what 'perfect' can mean in the context of liturgy. It is not like drawing a 'perfect' circle. Rather, it is like you have been in love with your spouse for 1570 years and realise you do not want to change anything about them, even loving the signs of age and so-called 'imperfections'. The long-won familiarity reaches a point of perfection.
That is a very helpful clarification, and I most certainly agree with the comparison. Thank you Father!@@ScriptureandTraditionFrJM
The Novus Ordo will not survive this century. It was a Mass tailored to fit the Second Vatican Council, which was a council tailor made to fit a specific time-frame with its specific mentality...much unlike Trent, which was meant to reiterate eternal truths. This is not to say that it is sinful, not a pleasing sacrifice (in and of itself), or an affront against God, but rather that it is temporary and will be forgotten about in one way or another.
