My husband became Catholic after our son died. He had a dream where our son told him heaven was real and so beautiful. 💙
I *always* ♾ find dreams have *inferable, hidden information* 🕵🕵🕵 that is *not directly perceived* 🤐🤐🤐 about *the dream world* 🌍🌍🌍. E.g. Character 👤🪞 motivations ❓, modus/modi operandi 🛣🛣🛣, the validity ✅❌ of a statement 📑 within the dream, etc.
Dreams 💤 are primarily logic 🤔 puzzles 🧩🧩🧩.
Your husband should systematically analyse his dreams and solve it.
That is so beautiful.
My his soul rest in peace
God works in mysterious ways.
Wow
Just confirmed this weekend. Grew up protestant (Southern Baptist), became disgusted with the hypocrisy and ignorance, then was an atheist for 10 years, came back to the faith, got baptized, but soon became disillusioned with my chosen denomination (Pentecostal). Took some time to self analyze and research. Very happy to be Catholic now.
What exactly is it about Roman Catholicism that you "analyzed and researched" that leads you to believe it is the correct "church" for you ?? Sounds to me like you went from a spiritually dead works based denomination (Baptist) to an over the top spiritually alive church Holy Spirit based denomination (Pentecostal), and BOTH didn't suit you -- so you went for a "rituals" based denomination (Roman Catholic) -- where you can feel connected to GOD (who is Spirit) by your physical rituals (kinda like the pagans do).
You are screwed because you will not study Scripture and allow the Holy Spirit to teach you Truth (1John 2:27, Matthew 23:9, etc)
Not true that the Catholic church is not scriptural. It is based on scripture as Jesus lived it.
YOU: Not true that the Catholic church is not scriptural. It is based on scripture
*ME: Soooo.... you are saying that Apostle Paul got it wrong when he wrote that DEATH entered the world by ONE MAN/Adam (Romans 5:12), and Death/Satan were crushed/defeated by ONE MAN/Jesus dying on the cross (Hebrews 2:14, Genesis 3:15)* -- and that ROME got it right when Rome contradicts the Apostle/Canon and teaches that Death entered the world by the WOMAN/Eve and therefore Mary is the new Eve and Co-Redemptrix and crushes Satan (no NT verses).
*So you are saying that its Apostle Paul/Canon that are the HERETICS teaching the false doctrines that the Fall & Redemption of Mankind was ONLY between TWO MEN/sons of God* (1Corinth 15:21-22, Luke 1:35/3:38) -- *ONLY between TWO ADAMS* (1Corinth 15:45,47) -- *based SOLELY on the actions of these TWO MEN (Romans 5:12-21)* -- and Rome got it right when they teach that Mary's name is part of Redemption/Salvation as "co-Redemptrix" ???? contradicts PETER in Acts 4:12.
Heresy, thy name is Rome
I think what he's saying is the Catholic church is a Church formed by Jesus and we're appreciative of the Protestant Christians because they're doing a good job making Jesus aware and those people then that seek the truth will find the Catholic church and all the wonderful sacraments
@@commentsbydjb3821 YOU: the Catholic church is a Church formed by Jesus
*ME: You contradict the Apostles/Canon. According to Apostle PETER, Jesus started/"formed" a SPIRITUAL congregation comprised of Believers indwelled by the Holy SPIRIT -- 1Peter 2:5-7.*
*According to Apostles MATTHEW and PAUL, the "ekklesia/congregation of believers/church" that Jesus started was founded on the foundation of Jesus The Christ* -- Matthew 16:16-18, 1Corinth 3:11.
Here is what Apostle MATTHEW said:
"...thou art PETROS and upon THIS PETRA (not Petros) I will build my ekklesia/congregation of believers/church."
Here is what Apostle Paul said:
"For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ."
*Jesus didn't form a PHYSICAL church on the traveling Apostle Peter who was instructed to go PREACH the Gospel of Messiah Jesus to the JEWS* (Matthew 10:5-6, Gal 2:7-9) *starting in Jerusalem and then out to the scattered Jews in the world in order to get the Jews saved* (Acts 10:38-43, Luke 24:47-49, Mark 16:15-16, etc)
I grew up Mormon, but married a Catholic. Our kids were all baptized Catholic, and I just recently made the decision to start the RCIA process to convert. I like feel I'm a true Christian for the first time in my life, and it feels wonderful.
Welcome home!!! 🎉 Becoming Catholic was the best decision I've ever made. Becoming Catholic is one of the best decisions in the history of decisions, I reckon. It hasn't been easy but so worth it. I cannot wait... CAN'T WAIT... until you receive our Lord into yourself in the Eucharist for the first time. Have you been attending Mass??? Please do if you haven't already. Sunday is my favorite day of the week. 😊 I'm working and can't go to daily Mass, but I live for Sundays. RCIA made the pandemic bearable ( I came through in 2020 and was baptized in 2021). God bless you and your journey.
Many, many years ago, way before my conversion, I attended a Bible college that was run by folks of the Dutch Reformed persuasion. Catholicism was presented in the context of ridicule, not logic. (A professor dismissed the deuterocanonical books by laughing at the book of Tobit, saying that it obviously didn't belong in the canon because no one could possibly take it seriously.) I remember sitting in my dorm room shortly before graduation, thinking, "Is this all there is?" All I needed to do was sit in a pew once a week, listen to a sermon, say a few prayers, sing a few hymns, and I was "in"? Many of my fellow students were enthusiastic, active participants, but it never made sense to me. Fast forward about 10 years, and I discovered the early Church Fathers. I was both horrified and stimulated by finding that they were unabashedly Catholic! That led to my conversion and subsequent discovery that the Catholic church had depths of spirituality that were missing in my former Evangelical life. Oddly enough, a year or so ago, a post came up in my Facebook feed from some protestant pastor who was pushing a book on writing sermons. The plug started off, "We all know that the height of Christian worship is the sermon . . ." and I found myself shouting, "No! No! It's the Eucharist, you idiot!" I guess I'm Catholic to stay.
As Catholic we work out our salvation with fear and trembling.
True, it is the holy eucharist but not if you go to confession once a year. We should confess more often because there is just too much temptation.
@@virginiaquiroga6631 Hi Virginia, I go to Confession almost every Friday
You are blessed to have been given that Grace to identify the TRUTH.
I was raised as Dutch Reform and I am with you 100% on your views/ experience’s yes you grow up around people that ridicule the Catholic Church and beliefs. Last year November age 52 I’ve also decided to become a devout Catholic it’s just so real and so much more than any other denomination You feel it everyday and it’s becoming a way of life for me even though it’s only been 4/5 month’s. I will be Catholic until the day I die just sad it took me so long to realise. 🙏
When I became a Christian again in 2021 I tried going by just the bible and avoided catholicism because of all the propaganda from prots. But within a year I returned to the Catholic church and transformed my life
Amen 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Welcome Home 🤗🏴
Does the Catholic Church tell you how to get to heaven, after many hours and finding out what the Church tells you , you must do and what God says you must do are to completely different things. The Catholic Church has many doctrines and traditions over the century's that are not even in the bible. After finding out the truth i left the Catholic Church 20 years ago. I wanted to know what GOD says i must do to get to heaven, you must be saved ask the lord into your heart and repent ,its a transformation of the heart that you now live for God and put him first in your life. Catholic Church has rituals you must do to get to heaven with pennants and Purgatory, that is not in the bible and goes against what Christ died on the cross for. Hears a site that goes over the history of the church and what the bible says you must do to enter into the kingdom of heaven. The Church has gotten so far from GODs word i was pretty shocked. I am glad i am saved and someone showed me what GOD says i am saved over 20 years ago ,now i no were i am going when i die, czcams.com/video/3aMeCBHZ24g/video.html
@@littlesilver2205 the Catholic church teaches you that only through Christ can you get in heaven. Everything the church teachers can be traced back to the bible, and all seven sacraments were instituted by Christ and all point directly to Christ as the center. The mass is the highest possible form of worship. Sola scripture is false and doesn't less to salvation because it is of the flesh and not of the spirit. Something doesn't need to be explicitly stated in the bible for it to be true. God be with you.
@@littlesilver2205 because the Bible was completed thousands of years ago. Catholics are not "bible alone" people, because it's not Biblical (give me verse that justify "bible alone"), it's just a novelty from Protestant movement. The Church is the pillar and the foundation of the Truth, not the Bible, the Church interprets the Bible through the authority handed down by the Apostles, and that Church is the Catholic Church, not your sect founded by man registered in Securities and Exchange.
My husband is being inducted into the Catholic faith today at Easter Vigil Mass at 8:30pm at St Francis, Xavier - Scotland UK. A lot of prayers throughout the years from my a lot of people, priests, and my mum. Please keep him in your prayers.
I'm on it! God pulled a good friend into my life this past year whom has finally came home to the faith with baptism, confirmation, and full communion. My prayers will be for your family this evening. Blessings from Huntsville Alabama USA!
Catholicism is a weirdo cult. A friend who was a catholic told me that. I've thought the same thing for years. Take away all of the God worship and look at what they're doing.
I am Catholic, not only Christian... thanks be to God's Grace more than 30 years ago, from protestism to Catholicism!
Yes, Jesus is the Eucharist!
Thank you for a beautiful discussion with Fr Gregory.🕯🕯🕯
Bless you all.
My husband is in his final Cathechism... next week he will be received as a member of this beautiful Faith... we thank and praise God.👐👐👐
That is wonderful Annemarie 😊🙏🏴
🎉🎉🎉🎉
🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
you cant be catholic and a christian ! .... make up your mind what god your going to serve...
Father Gregory is a blessing to us all. He and the Dominican friers played a huge part in my conversion from Evangelical to Catholic.
I almost started going to mass at a Baptist church because I met the church secretary and she became my friend. She never talked bad about Catholics and said she had good friends that are Catholic. She never pushed me to join her church but did insist I join a church for the fellowship. I went back to mass last week at a nearby Catholic parish.
Our Catholic Mass is so beautiful. I highly recommend Scott Hahn’s book The Lamb’s Supper: The Mass as Heaven on Earth. He explains the Mass in detail. If you have not heard of him, he is a former Presbyterian minister who converted to Catholicism.
I would love to have seen the expression on her face when you referred to a Baptist church service as "Mass"
@@williammcquinn5278😂😂😂 right!😂😂😂
I almost joined SDA church because a friend invited me. Then God told me to join the Catholic Church. My friend was LIVID when I told her... It almost ended the friendship. She hurled all sorts of accusations at me, especially that Catholics worship Mary. Then, she said that maybe the Spirit who told me to join the Church was evil with I'll intent. Hurt my heart. I was resolved even more to join, though. Why attack a church that's already not true? satan wouldn't; he attacks the Catholic Church because he knows it's TRUE. I pray for my friend, but I enjoy myself, especially in church.
I’m 64 and the Catholic Faith has been calling me. I’ve been reading and learning and will actively pursue the faith soon. I’m looking for the right parish. Thank you for more information to support my decision.
I will pray for you to find one. God Bless you
Go to any nearest Catholic Church or Parish. They will surely help you. Or If you know of any Catholic Nuns working near your area speak to them and they will help you to the Church Priest.
Your local parish is the right parish. The Mass is the same everywhere. Catholics are supposed to stay local because that way we build community and know each other.
It's the parish where you live, isn't it.
@@Anon.5216I live between two parishes- just about equidistant, though one is a little closer. I attend the other one. Not out of orneriness but because when I searched for a church in Sheikh Google, that's the one it gave. By the time I realized there was one closer, it was too late. I'd already joined the church, established a sense of community and grown comfy. Though we shouldn't parish-hop, there's nothing wrong with attending Mass in a parish different than the one in which we live. People have their reasons.
Catholic forever! 💜🙏💜✌️😊
Excellent episode. Blessing to Fr. Gregory. I pray Mother Mary protects his vocation. Our church needs more priests like Fr. Gregory.
I’m an on again and off again Catholic. This channel helps me to better understand my Catholic faith and I’m learning so much. Your channel is very necessary. Thank you.
Are you learning that DEATH entered the world by the Woman/Eve, and therefore Mary is the "new Eve" or "co-Redemptrix" (no NT verses) ?? *Which contradicts the Apostle/Canon that teaches DEATH entered the world by ONE MAN/Adam (Romans 5:12) and DEATH was crushed/defeated by ONE MAN/Jesus dying on a wooden cross (Hebrews 2:14).* Since the Apostle/Canon teaches that the Fall & Redemption of Mankind was ONLY between TWO MEN (1Corinth 15:21-22) -- ONLY between TWO ADAMS (1Corinth 15:45,47) -- based on the actions of these TWO SONS OF GOD (Romans 5:12-21, Luke 1:35/3:38) -- *then there is no need for a "new Eve".*
*Eve is a typology of the CHURCH, not Mary.*
Eve was of the BODY of the First Adam -- Genesis 2:22-23
The Church is the BODY of the Last Adam -- Colossians 1:18, 1Corinth 12
Eve was the BRIDE of the First Adam -- Genesis 2:24
The Church is the BRIDE of the Last Adam -- Ephesians 5:32, Rev 19
*And Mary can not be "co-Redemptrix" because "REDEEM" means to "PAY A RANSOM" -- Jesus alone paid the ransom/redeemed Mankind from the Sin/Curse/Death of the First Adam by his own death on the cross (Romans 5:12-21) -- completely reconciling Mankind back to GOD -- see Colossians 1:12-14,20-22.* Mary did not pay a ransom for Mankind -- Mary did not die to reconcile Mankind back to GOD -- Mary is not a "co-REDEEMER/Ransom Payer".
*You better press the "off again" button before its too late to receive Salvation* -- if you believe in Roman purgatory, you are DENYING the complete work of Redemption (purification, 1COrinth 6:10-11) BOUGHT/paid for by the shed blood of Jesus Christ -- *just as Peter warned in 2Peter 2:1-3 -- and there is no Salvation in DENYING the complete work of Jesus' shed blood* (Colossians 1:12-14,20-22).
Praying for your growth in the catholic faith!
@@joshuaambriz8711 Praying for your eyes to open to the paganism of the Roman Catholic faith -- which contradicts the Apostles.
@@veritasmuy2407 Veritas, what are you hoping to gain by being an obnoxious troll unwilling to hold a decent conversation?
@@amandadelassus2128 YOU: what are you hoping to gain by being an obnoxious troll unwilling to hold a decent conversation?
*ME: The same thing that the "troll" Jesus did to the Pharisees and those following the false doctrines of the Pharisees -- use written Scripture to prove your Roman doctrines/traditions are false -- see Matthew 15:1-9, Matthew 19:4-6, Matthew 22:29, etc..*
Want to hear one of "troll Jesus'" conversations with and about God's religious leaders ?? *Read Matthew 23*
Want to see how Jesus reacted to those disrespecting GOD ?? *Read John 2:13-16*
Prayers that soon all humanity will convert to the Catholic Church 🙏🏼❤️😊
My daily prayer
I'm Catholic Christian since birth. I respect all Christian religion. Catholic rocks !!
if your catholic then your not a CHRISTIAN !
Every time Fr Gregory is on a podcast I have to listen, such a wealth of knowledge and great wit. He is truly a gift to Catholics…thanks so much for this video…loved seeing him interact with TCTS it was thoroughly entertaining and informative, God Bless you all ✝️🕊
Papal protestantism (catholicism) is a heretical utopia with the pope that pretends to be infailible and a phony and dreadful heresy made by the franks even centuries before the schism from political reasons. What was the result? They changed everything. After that, was the reformation, the second wave of protestants, after the papal protestants, where they all became popes and after the reformation, the iluminism, the atheism, communism, nihilism, ecumenism and now pacha mama, your supreme lider is praying to a pagan godess who received human sacrifices along with all the satanic religions from the face of the earth. Now you think you have gone too far? Wait until antichrist comes. The pope is a figure, a typology of the antichrist. Good job you all! Come back home to orthodoxy and stop the nonsense. Many are coming back
Fr Gregory "Who Gives a Rip!" Pine everybody!
JK, I love the fact a clergyman so knowledgeable and erudite understands the wisdom of the angels and saints (and G.K. Chesterton) in recognizing and utilizing in himself the gift of taking things lightly.
This guy is awesome.agree.Such clarity and honest precision in his words.Has a sense of humour too.👍
I truly love my Catholic faith
God is the who carried me through my beautiful son's mark's death foot prints in the sand and to many to mention here of serious trauma's in my family mental health my faith has always held me not without sufferings but keep going because
God is my
Lord saviour best friend my heavenly beautiful forever friend
Whose always been with me he died for me how much more can he loves us forever forgiving 🇨🇮🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤✝️✝️✝️✝️
I was confirmed into the Church in 2004 and I have been a horrible disciple. I think I have undergone a self inflicted excommunication because I wanted to go and explore other cultures and strange mysteries. Now I think I am starting heal both my faith, spirit, belief, and the will to return to the church.
Like a "Lost" sheep? Christ is The Good Shepherd who worries over his lost one the most. He knows the wolves are out there...
A lost sheep still longs for his fold?
@@nobusmanrbbj Yeah that definently describes me, just a little lost sheep, that wants to be found, I just don't really know if I'm being searched for, and what would Jesus Christ say if he saw how much of a terrible wretch I look like. I know its a sin to think that I can't be healed, but that thought has crossed my mind. I don't know if what ever I do will ever be enough to please Him to give me His gift of Grace.
@@nikopawlowic6557amigo, Jesús no vino a salvar a los justos, sino a los pecadores, o sea a nosotros los pecadores.
Priests in training are encouraged to visit other faiths. To know what they believe and why. U should not feel guilt for seeking understanding/knowledge. It should strengthen ur faith!
Whenever someone says, "I think the Bible is really saying...", the toughest response to avoid is, "Even though people have been studying the Bible for almost 2000 years, I am sure that you have found something in there that no one has ever considered before."
When the Protestants say that Catholics carry the hung up Jesus on their necks but dont realise that Jesus rose up 2000 years ago. I Bluntly say to them that the plain cross they keep is not of Jesus but of the grudging criminal. Then they say you dont understand the Bible then I say you keep your opinion to yourself.
@@bhaktabdrtamang5805yeah I don’t understand why they hate the crucifixion 😂 do they not understand the significance??? A cross didn’t die for us, Jesus did ❤
Moreover, the most devout of those are following a 16th/17th century translation with virtually no knowledge of its context or the history of the time in which the original writings were written.
Catholic religion is like a recipe of food that it has all the ingredients to taste the best food you want.
It's like painting with the full rainbow
too bad its false.
@@vanoriskcope
@@Demi.d3mi no need
@@vanoriskdo Catholics troll prot YT accounts? Just curious. I never had the desire to waste a minute of time viewing something I don’t believe in. Me thinks someone has too much time on his hands
Catholic is UNIVERSAL CHURCH FOUNDED BY JESUSCHRIST 🙏📿🙏
Seriously, Is that another name change to deceive?
This episode couldn’t have been more perfectly timed! I was JUST having this conversation yesterday with my 11 year old daughter. I wholeheartedly agree with all of your points!
I went to St. Dominic school and parish when I was young in Youngstown, Ohio and certainly didn't appreciate the O.P. order nor my Catholicism back then. Still learning to appreciate my faith even more today with Fr. Pagano at St. John Paul II in Nocatee, FL. Thank you for this entertaining and informative session.

Thank you, Fr. Gregory. You are such a great teacher. What you said about "loving the truth over loving the conquuest" really struck me. I am always praying for you.

Catholic Priests spend seven years training and are as well educated in catholic scripture as any doctor or vet is in medicine. Jesuit catholic Priests train for 13 yrs not all in Seminary. Pope Francis is a Jesuit Priest.
I came across your show by happy accident. I find your discussions interesting, informative and sometimes terrifying when I realise how far from grace I am. Your show gives me inspiration and an incentive to strive towards living a better and more fulfilling Catholic Life. Thank you Fr. Richard and your co-hosts and guests.

Loved Fr. Gregory!
Have him back!
You can tell that Fr. Gregory is a holy priest!
Pray for me Fr. Gregory!
I always wondered what it would feel like if I ran into one of my professors at a frat party. Now I know.
Hahhahahaaa!
@@CatholicTalkShow Love you guys. Keep'em coming! God bless!
Eucharist.. and the beautiful devotion to Our Blessed Mother!
Fabulous!!!! Love Fr Pine!!!! Thank you so much for this!!
When I had my sudden conversion from atheist to Catholic, my Protestant friends asked me why. I told them it took 3 divine revelations to even admit that what I was experiencing was real. During each of those, there was a very clear message and direction. Not becoming Catholic wasn't even a choice.
🙏🙏🙏 Thank you all.
Love the energy and enthusiasm. Thank you for witnessing for our Lord!! God bless you all!!!
Great episode, thank you! My reversion process over the last 15 years was finally accepting the authority piece. Seeing that I am not smarter than all the apostolic father's who came before me and preserves the faith anyone who has a problem with authority will have a problem with The Catholic Church.
Very well stated!
as a protestant this was interesting to say the least
““Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.””
Matthew 11:28-30 NIV
That is one of my favorite verses.
I love this channel so much. Thank you for playing a part on bringing me back to my faith. I'm ready to fully devote myself.
Can you please do a show on the beatitudes?
Thank you so blessed to have found this refreshing Chanel.
🙏for future priests
I’m in OCIA now. I was an independent baptist (KJV only) Sola Scriptura. I’d say if you’re KJV only you’re stepping towards Catholicism because you care about the purity of the word and reject changes. But as you see Protestantism allow more and more open sin and change the church to fit the sinner you will either become Catholic or Orthodox.
YOU: if you’re KJV only you’re stepping towards Catholicism because you care about the purity of the word and reject changes.
*ME: You mean like how Rome teaches that DEATH entered the world by the WOMAN/Eve, which heretically contradicts Apostle Paul who taught that DEATH entered the world by ONE MAN/Adam (Romans 5:12), and that DEATH was defeated by ONE MAN/Jesus dying on the cross (Hebrews 2:14)* -- meaning no need for a "new Eve".
YOU: Protestantism allow more and more open sin and change the church to fit the sinner
*ME: You mean how Rome ignores Apostle Paul's instructions in 1Corinth 5 and not only allows known homosexuals and pedophiles to remain in the Church, but allows these perverted men to continue in church leadership ??*
Do you mean like how the Roman Church "allowed more and more open sin" for 1000 YEARS when the Roman Church participated in the hunting down, torture, murder, and stoled the assets of anyone in Europe (Christians, Jews, etc) that would not convert to Roman Catholicism ?? Creating multitudes of orphans and widows starving in the streets while Rome did the work of Satan according to Jesus in John 10:10, John 8:44, etc.
HYPOCRITE. See what Jesus thinks about you in Matthew 23
Sorry but there is no such religion as Protestantism. Catholic have no clue. You either surrender your life to Jesus or you do not. Catholics surrender their lives to the RCC!
Hi, thank you for explaining this topic. It is so important. So true, I was shocked how "Christians" when I was debating w a John Mccarther follower told me as a Catholic, we are going to Hell. We worship Mary, the Saints. I do not have the gift of evangelizing. Sometimes I get pissed. Then I got to tell myself, Jesus wouldn't get mad. Love your talk show. God Bless
It definitely tries your patience though when you hear yet another Christian condemn you to hell for being Catholic or parroting the same over used and old issues with Catholicism like you said if we worship to Mary, we think Mary is equal to God, we worship the Saints, we don’t know anything about Christ, we removed the 2nd Commandment, the Latin rite/Catholic Church didn’t come into existence until the 4th century or that we are a works based religion and fixate on works and not faith etc.
it’s extremely trying when you have to go over the same thing time and time again or when it’s Christian’s who have no interest in dialogue but want to preach to us Catholics so we ‘leave the whore of Babylon’ yet when we show with Scripture where the Catholic beliefs come from they always seem to put their fingers in their ears singing lalalala…
@Gemma Teller. It is indeed frustrating ? What is your response then ?
1 Peter 3:15
But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect
We're going to Hell? Whatever happened to condemn not, lest ye be condemned? 🤔
Why is it that prots think we worship Mary when we ask for her intercession? Why is it that they INSIST they know what we believe in even if they don't? Why is it that they do not believe in perpetual virginity when the scriptures also elaborate on the parents of the 'brothers' that were mentioned.. even Luther believed in perpetual virginity...so many questions.
@@tinag7506 if Protestants don't want to believe anything, they will mental gymnastics to do everything they can to argue against Catholicsm.
Love the way you talk about Christ’s body, Mr. Delacross, made up of all of us, with us on earth and beyond!
Always nice to see catholics showing their fruit by gossiping 😉 You both claim these Marian dogmas are biblical, but yet the two of you together can't support them 😆
Most enjoyable show. Thank you.
Thanks for the post!
Fantastic. Great dynamics, great conversation, great video! Subscribed.
I learn something new each time I tune in.
Always a great show. This is one I never saw but am very interested in...I am a former Catholic now Biblical Christian. I am from an Italian Catholic Family. I attended twelve years of Catholic School which I am inestimably grateful to my parents. No one educates like the Catholic Church! My family was very close to the nuns and priests of the two schools I attended, as was I, and to this day I love them very much though many have passed. Beautiful, wonderful people! Thomas Aquinas is an important influence on my thinking relative to theology, particularly my doctrine of God, I am committed to the Thomistic understanding of the DDS, and my theology of the Trinity, in addition to and the Incarnation, my Metaphysical and Epistemological commitments as well as my Ethical commitments as I am committed to Classical Natural Law Theory and a Christian Anthropology. However, Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Knox, John Owens, Francis Turretin, Matthew Henry, and others amongst the Puritans are great influences of mine also especially in their capacity to exegete the scripture. Many of whom also held Aquinas in very high regard. They have influenced my Theology concerning questions of Authority, Justification, Sanctification, Theocentrism and Christocentrism, the Doctrine of Inspiration and the Infallibility of Scripture, and how I view the relation between scripture and tradition. I subscribe wholeheartedly to Sola Scriptura and the Five Sola Doctrines: Sola Fide, Sola Gratia, Solus Christus, Soli Deo Gloria and Sola Scriptura. I understand what historically Protestants were protesting and why which seems to escape many so-called protestants today. I reject the papacy as unbiblical, particularly its three-pillars of supremacy, succession and infallibility as defined by Vatican I. I reject the Marian Dogmas with qualification. I accept the first of the four, i.e. the Theotokos, with qualification as Christocentric as intended during the Council of Ephesus to support or otherwise establish the Incarnation. I reject its contemporary use as a title intended to exalt Mary. I reject the other three and the potential fifth if ever defined by Rome as bereft of biblical warrant or support. I will never pray to Mary or to those whom the church designates as Saints.
Although I attend the Trindentine Mass, I reject the idea that the Mass is a sacrifice. I reject Alter-Christus and In Persona Christi as grossly unbiblical. I subscribe to the real presence however I reject Transubstantiation as an explanation of the mode of Christ's being present in the Eucharist. My opposition to Transubstantiation is not Metaphysical though but is instead Theological.
The canon my friend was received according to Athanasius, patriarch of the Christian See of Alexandria, in his Thirty-Ninth Festal Epistle, paragraph seven. The canon was not established by the Catholic Church. I affirm for instance the Athanesian Canon as reflected in the same letter, paragraphs four and five, and reject what my Catholic friends characterize as the deuterocanonical books rejected by Athanasius in the same letter paragraph seven. According to Athanasius then, there are sixty-six books of the bible.
The problem for me is that there is no evident way to reconcile what I consider to be Rome's errors with a sound biblical theology. I actually love the Catholic Church, the Clergy and many of its institutions. I pray the Benedictine Office daily however I do not celebrate Feats that involve saints or Mary. I am a huge fan of Father Pine, Father Thomas Joseph White, Father Dominic Legge, Matt Frad, etc...... But my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot breach the gulf between Sola Ecclesia and Sola Scriptura. Great show though I am a fan and will always watch your podcast. God bless you my friends!
Catholics are Christian.
Very delightful!
We've had Dr. Scott Hahn. We've had Father Gregory Pine... Father Mike Schmitz should be nearby.
For PRECISELY the same reason that We should ALL be PATRIOTS and not just Americans.
Unless you’re English?
I stepped away from the Church not long ago. But I find myself defending and teaching apologetics more out side the church than when I was inside the church.
Come on back in. Yes, there seems to be fresh drama every other week or so. But sometimes I need to pretend I live in a time when information took longer to disseminate (re the Vatican) and I follow the faith I have always known.
I am a 68 year old mother of 3 adult married children I wish they would watch your show I truly feel they would come back to the faith! You guys are great, you show being Catholic can be fun along with times of being prayerful and quiet . Celebrate on! I love your show and someday would love to go on pilgrimage with you guys I am sure it would be amazing❤️🙏😁
When I was 20 which was 60 years ago, I became a Catholic. I was of the Episcopalian faith.
I took 8 months of private instructions and that Easter was my First Holy Communian.
I was age 20 when I got married and that May of 1964 was my wedding day on the 23rd.
But the priest of St. Mary's Episcopalian Church was VERY upset that I was becoming Catholic because I was marrying a Catholic. My sister also became Catholic as Her husband was one, and is still Catholic today as I am and my one daughter. I had five children but only one has stayed faithful to the Church.
What I wanted to tell you is what was said to me when I became Catholic, what the Episcopalian priest said to me;
"Why do you go to Rome for what we have here?"
Of course, one of the reasons was to be of the same faith as my husband. And anyway, I always had a secret longing to become Catholic, and I couldn't understand fully why the two Churches that were so similar, (?) because we're considered Anglican Catholic, (high church) as we call ourselves because we had the Eucharist we had Confessions. We genuflected we had the sign of the Cross. We also had devotion to the Blessed Mother. As I used to say the only thing we didn't have was the Pope and the Latin!
Anyway, I thought I would just share that.
And there are definitely VERY stark differences in what Orthodox believe and Roman Catholics.
I went to a fair one time put on by the Orthodox Church in Randall, New Jersey, a Rev. John, and after that the priest let us all go inside the church to explain to us the faith they believed in.
Some family members were with me and as we sat on the pews we noticed what was in the little brackets attached to the back of each pew. And they had a large plastic kind of paper and it had the Creed
on it. So I started to read it to my daughter very softly and everything just was like word for word Except they left the Holy Spirit Out of the Creed!
With my family member I went to the office of the priest as he wanted to answer some of my questions and I had tears...
I just couldn't BELIEVE what they believed. I mean if I practice any of the things that he said, I would be excommunicated from the Catholic Church!
They believe in birth control and I told him the story about the man in the Old Testament who displeased God VERY much when he was having an affair with his brother's wife. We all know that story. No need to go into details. And he said that they didn't consider that was not a reason not to practice birth control... He also said that they are allowed to marry three times and divorce three times.
(I guess not 4 because that would be ridiculous right? RIGHT!)
If you wanted to go to Confession, you did it by appointment. The wedding ring is worn on the right hand because they think it's pagan to have it on the left hand. The priests can marry, but then I'm not going to say anything about that right now. And the Communion is different on a spoon or whatever, but I won't say anything about that either.
There were other things as well, but I'll stop there. He gave me a bunch of books to read, but I never did open them because I just was dumbfounded at what he told me, and his reasons why... which didn't make much sense to me. So I just thought I would mention that as well...
Okay, God bless you, and thank you for standing up for our faith and being strong ...and also joyful because Jesus is our Salvation and the Eucharist is beyond priceless and precious.
And also to know that we have a wonderful Mother in God's Mother is absolutely fantastic as well.
Great episode! I listened to the podcast on my way to work today.
Q: Which character on The Andy Griffith Show was a Dominican?
A: Opie (say it slowly)
Really enjoyed this episode! Thank you!
Many things to think about
The key to become a catholic is about God’s Glory first or else it is all about me. 🤔🙂😇
The church founded by Jesus the only church founded by Jesus. Like the saying goes All Roads lead to Rome
...and Rome went into Jerusalem and crucified the King of the Jews.
Jesus started Catholic church. Take RCIA and join
@@johnyang1420 Where is the error in what's been said?
The “church” is not an institution. It is the believers in Christ.
@@cesargarcia7074 for your information the Basilica of St Peter in Rome was build at exact place where St Peter ( Simon Peter) was crucified, many years after our Lord's Resurrection. So....Rome at that time was pagan but it was the Jews who didn't recognize their Messiah who crucified our Lord.
Learn some history please.
And learn what Really happened and when. That's where your error lies.
Father , I remember I got alot of friends in Singapore but defferent religion , they always ask me try their faith , in other religion but I always says , we are friends but no need to discussed about religion because I won't follow you what ever happen , I stay being a Catholic in I am proud of that
What great show! I am a Catholic. Fr Gregory is so funny. Love it!! xxx
Because we want to be linked to the authentic Body of Christ
Can you do a show on the German schism?
Great episode guys
Thanks
Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P. (Over Powered)
❤️❤️🙏🙏
Hi.There are Dominican nuns near me in a beautiful chapel.Lately I have felt burdened by the Christian church all the divisions and coldness and some interfered in my private life. I have been finding peace and rest upon stumbling on a chapel. Sitting inside praying I feel heard by God himself.I think maybe I need time out of the C of E etc as all I feel is confused. Some give false phropecy also. Thanks for showing me Catholics can have fun.
Love your sense of humour 😘🥰😍🤔
I was in the cereal aisle in our local store when I happened to notice a quote on a box of Corn Flakes: “Original and Best.”
Such it is with our blessed Catholic Church. There can be only one original faith.
Corn Flakes are an SDA product and which has been making people sick for 100 years.
Ephesians 4:4 One body and one Spirit: to this you have been called by the one hope of your calling:
Ephesians 4:5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Ephesians 4:6 one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.
2 John 1:9 Everyone who withdraws and does not remain in the doctrine of Christ, does not have God. Whoever remains in the doctrine, such a one as this has both the Father and the Son.
If I am a Catholic surely I am a Christian.?
Absolutely 🥰.
I was brought up a Catholic and spent a years thinking why I was Catholic and not Christian- what set me apart.
I was lucky in College that we had to look at Schillebeckx’s Christ the Sacrament of the Encounter with God.
And it suddenly dawned on me how Catholic I was. How we have a Sacramental view of the world. It underpins many of our teachings - but it is rarely said outright. I’ve heard it said recently that our understanding of the Real Presence as Transubstantiation and not “consubstantiation” etc makes sense when you have a sacramental understanding. It’s just not present in Protestant teachings in the same way.
I’ve since forgotten what Schillebeeckx wrote. And we didn’t just read his views either. But that has remained with me as the reason I am Catholic.
We should talk more about living a sacramental life.
@@laurarees4223 Just so you know, @veritasmuy2407 is a troll. That person has nothing better to do than to show the world how stupid he, she, or it is.
A true Christian doesn't have the burden of false doctrines. 95 in Catholic Church, 25 in Eastern Orthodox, 5 in Calvinism.
I am lost, 56 year old male and looking to get back into my faith which is Roman Catholic. I had a Priest visit me, do a blessing on me and my home. I would like to go to church but, can't due to mental illness. So where online can I do mass? Also I no longer have a Catholic Bible, where can I buy one? Please send me links and thank you in advance.
If you go on CZcams
And search Catholic Mass for the date a bunch of live masses will come up. Your local parish may also livestream. Mine does, I take care of my 87yr old mom, she can't physically attend Mass, so she watches it frm home. I dont know what your illness is. But, I have severe social anxiety. Honestly, when I go to Mass, sometimes it's fine, but sometimes I feel a pull to not go, like every1 might be looking at me or whatever I just get anxiety I have to just walk out the door and go w/o thinking. And when I receive the Eucharist it strengthens me. I always think of what St. Padre Pio said Pray, Hope, Don't Worry. Some days I just say that to myself over & over. Good Luck & God Bless
You can try to search using phone app.
CZcams has several Catholic daily Mass videos. The Catholic Bible is on apps and online.
@@southernlady1109 Oh how do I find them? Thanks for this much appreciated :)
Please check Fr Mike Schmitz, who offers mass online
I'm catholic, which is christian. So I don't have to say I'm christian or the other odd saying "I'm a christian catholic"🤔
I grew up in Poland where 96% of people were Catholics. We have used these both terms interchangeably.
Can you guys speak about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, particularly the gift of tears?
I concure that was the best explanation of what a Dominican is. All teenagers should be encouraged to read thr life if StDominic because there are so many incredible supernatural instances of why the Catholic church is the one true church. Just the story of when those angry women confronted him in the church and a demon appeared and frightened them and he calmly banished it and they converred and actually became the first Dominican nuns. Our history is so rich and interesting and helps explain truth for our ignorant current society
YOU: All teenagers should be encouraged to read thr life if StDominic
*ME: St. Dominic wrote the blasphemous "The Blessed Virgin Mary's 15 Promises" which replaced GOD/Holy Spirit/Jesus with Mary -- GOD HATES THAT -- read Romans 1:25-28.* Now you know why the Roman hierarchy has been cursed with rampant homosexuality.
I experience the same thing. What church do you go to and you say Catholic and the Protestant steps back. It’s sad because I was Protestant and remember the lies and misinformation and deceit. How can the truth be taught through all these layers of denial of truth by the leaders themselves?
I am also a convert. It truly is so sad once you see the truth and you wish to share it, but they are not willing to accept it. It breaks my heart for all Protestants because they truly don’t get to experience the depth of Gods love through the sacraments.
you catholics break my heart. praying for you
@@vanorisk appreciate your prayers but I don’t need them for being catholic. The fact you would say that shows me you truly don’t know what it means to be catholic and the joys that come with it and the fruitfulness.
@@vanorisk would you say that to a baptist? Or to a Methodist? No you wouldn’t. Protestants push an evil agenda against what it means to be catholic and our beliefs. If you think poorly of us it’s because you do not know what we actually believe in. You merely just believe in propaganda. Bless you.
@@CozyWithHaley i used to be catholic so I am aware of what you are going through. i will pray for you, because it is a false doctrine no matter how much you enjoy it.
Proof of the Apostolic succession is demonstrated by the Consecration during the mass when bread and wine is converted into the real Body and Blood of Christ. This is scientifically proven.
Clement testifies to apostolic succession as well around 70 AD in First Clement. Clement mentioned in Philippians 4:3 is writing and commanding the Corinthians from Rome while the Apostle John is still alive. I wonder why that is? 🤔
The list of the direct succession of Popes dating back to Peter, Jesus Christs apostle is found on the official website for The Vatican, The Holy See. The list is called the Annuario Pontificio.
@@southernlady1109 thank you for the information. But,just to be clear, I wasn’t speaking about a listing of popes. I was referring to Christ’s words giving the Apostles the change bread and wine to the Body and Blood of Christ; and this power is handed down to all ordained priests from that time. This what I meant by Apostolic Succession.
@@vitolipari3406 That’s called The Transubstantiation. Apostolic succession is each Pope replacing their predecessor.
Thank you for the show.

Not on this episode, sadly.

It's lent. I'll wait until Easter.
Get a protestant on there to argue
Catholic here.. the Albergensian Hersey was put down with horrendous violence and cruelty by Simon de Monfort, with the greatest respect Fr. I'm not sure if it's a chortling matter.
I hope next time, you can invite Fr. Dominic Legge too.
You can be in any branch of Christianity…..having faith in Jesus: who he is and what he accomplished is the key! Keep Jesus in your heart! Be catholic….be Lutheran….be Methodist…..be whatever!
Completely false. Jesus established only one true Church, the Catholic Church. 1500 years later Protestants decided to protest some doctrinal issues they didn’t like about Catholicism. They broke away becoming heretics who made up there own beliefs. It is 100% important if you are a follower of Jesus to be in HIS Church, not merely a church where you decide what you want to believe.
@@limoncellosmith7594 church means called out ones……people called out to faith in Jesus…..first called out ones were called the Followers of the Way!
The reformed Christians do not decided individually what they want to believe
Abide in me and you'll bear much fruit...this is the goal ..ang glorify your heavenly father ...your not told to abide in a church ..you'll told to be it ..
God rest my beautiful sister to cancer plus my son pls pray for my family going through alot of these enemies attacking my family to cause serious harm we don't even know why🇨🇮✝️🙏💔💔💔🔥🔥🔥☀️🕊️🕊️🕊️
I from asia and i catholic. Many youngster nowadays left the church and convert to other religion. Catholic church really have to look into this issue. Catholic and christian population is shrinking due to low birth rate and leaving the church. It will be wonderful if there laws prohibit catholic convert to other faith. Peace. Amen.
5:52 “That’s a bold strategy, Cotton.”
Because of the Eucharist. Without it nothing makes sense 🤷🏻♀️
So true!!
My best friend asked me when I knew Jesus growing up Catholic I told him I have always known Jesus
This question make my stomach hurt! Lol!
Born and raised Catholic, love it, if you don't understand don't criticize our Catholic Church, pray my mystery daily, Ave Maria.
All the disciples of Jesus were Catholics like us. Anyone who believes in Christ is a Christian. For us Catholics,Christ is the Alpha and the Omega and Panacea for all our problems in our lives as we have completely surrendered to Christ and do not believe in second options.
Additional they are part of Herald of the Evangelio and the fathers have EP after their name
Just love he idol Mary in the background
You love whining. Dude get a life

I AM HAPPY I AM CATHOLIC SINCE BIRTH
Whenever people find out I am a practicing Catholic they always wanted to bombard me with the error of my ways. My two go to scriptures in my arsenal are John 6: 66 and Luke1 46-56. Once they realize that i read the bible it opens up a less combative dialog.
sadley catholicism is sending people to hell by idol worshiping . God the father of abraham issiac and jacob warns against worshipping other gods . the rosary the saint statues and the mantras.bowing to the pope
Who makes y’all’s statue of Our Lady? It’s beautiful!
It is our lady of Guadalupe
@@catherinebyrne796 yes, but who makes that particular version? Have you ever seen one like it for sell anywhere? If so, please share. It’s the best I’ve seen Virgen de Guadalupe I’ve seen in that size.
