- And as exorcist Fr. Chad Ripperger tells us this week, the Evil One hates when we stay positive in the face of hardships. When we set our sights on the good, the demons are forced to flee. Fr. Ripperger has seen this happen with the possessed people he has worked with, but it can work for all of us. We should all make positivity a part of our everyday spiritual lives. Join me and find out how to do just that.

I see Fr Chad, i click immediately.
Me too 😇
It's very pavlovian but I get caught doing the same.
Me too. Anything with Father Chad is bound to be very good
Yes Based
Simple as
Fr. Ripperger has been so instrumental in my return to Catholicism and my going deeper into our beautiful faith. I'm so grateful for him. God bless him.
Same here
A voice from Heaven. So much truth. God bless you Father.
I saw a quote somewhere:
"The best theologians are Catholic
theologians, who used to be
(catholic-bashing) Protestant
theologians."
~ B. Julian Kohl.
The first time I saw it, the blogger said Kohl listed some folks....
Dr David Anders was one. Another was Dr Robert Tilley from Australia. There were a couple others.
I also
Stay strong, God bless you and your family 💖
"Christian, you need to spend more time in the Good News than in the Breaking News". Love it!!
I agree, it's great
@ Michelle Maillo...👍👏🤝🙏💝
Amen!
Good News = Bible
I’m thinking of putting it on my phone background
I am a Protestant and I have watched all three episodes. I have found it very interesting. Certainly, I can see that by focusing on God and reading Scripture every day has great benefits. However, I have not really considered that entertaining negative thoughts can be a serious cause of demonic attack and can weaken me spiritually. I’m changing that aspect of my life immediately. Lots to consider over these three videos. Thanks.
"When you think about Hell, Wars, evil or punishment you are on a road to it. Your task is to accept Christ's peace, to live it and to spread it."
--Our Lady of Medjugorje.
You cannot combat Satan without the sacraments, please consider and pray for your conversion to Christ and His true Church.
@@rschiwal TY for that beautiful quote! 🕯
My words to your future: Welcome in the Catholic Church, Brother!
Have you ever considered converting to Catholicism ? as a Catholic you can enjoy the protection and God’s Grace through the sacraments . I had fallen away from the church in my young adult years but as I matured , I re-evaluated the reasons the Catholic faith presented the word of God and the example of Jesus . what’s unfortunate is church scandals, which I believe happened because Catholic Church and our priests face enormous temptation from Satan, and with their own failings as humans , too many priests succumbed to temptation and committed horrible sins . The destruction of The Catholic Church and our priests is a priority of Satan and his evil minions.
I'm Protestant, not Catholic, but still received so much from this talk, thank you
THERE IS NO SALVATION OUTSIDE THE ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC AND APOSTOLIC CHURCH BUILT BY CHRIST JESUS.

"...If you're comfortable in your spiritual life, that's not a good sign" - Fr. Chad Ripperger
While at the same time admonishing us to be joyful. No mixed message here at all.
@@leoncaruthers joyful doesnt always mean or equal comfort - if you want to climb a moutain and you are excited joyful about it - the moments of lack of comfort are or can be seen as part of the entire experience - often too much comfort means not enough growth or positive change 👍
@@kbc3601 I'll never reach the summit, so it's all just discomfort. Or is perpetual abject terror at eternal pain for failing to achieve perfection the right amount of discomfort?
@@leoncaruthers joyful is not the same as complacent
@@leoncaruthers you must be a Debbie downer. A negative Nancy huh?
As the evil darkness increases here in these last days, this is a very important message. Focus on Christ and not the darkness. Fr. Ripperger is AWESOME.
❤️🙏💞
@@lulumoon6942 💖😎👍
Both good and evil are increasing.
Amen to that! 💫🕊💫
The fact that evil exists is what should awaken this generation
MORE OF FR. RIPPERGER PLEASE!!! 🙏
Yes
He has more teachings on sensus fidelium videos
Can't get enough of Father Chad. May he have a long life.
*gigachad
This is a very eye-opening talk. I have recently found Jesus, and I was definitely a person who was dedicated to sin. I thank Jesus for saving me from the dark, sinful life I was living.
God Bless You. He Loves You So Much!!! 🙏❤️
This brightens my day to read this ❤
For everyone watching, just remember that as you try to do better .. do it in Gods power and not your own ❤
I have felt pulled back towards my faith lately, and the more I pray, and the more I surround myself with religious items, and holy water, I feel so much better and happier and CALMER/PEACEFUL. ♥️✝️♥️
Let us pray for all good and faithful priests who dedicate themselves to their people with generosity and unknown sacrifices.🙏🏻❤️
I absolutely love listening to Fr. Ripperger. I learn so much every time I do. This time I've figured out much about myself and my own spiritual warfare.
2 Corinthians 4
3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
1 Corinthians 15 KJV
1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Romans 3 KJV
25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
♥️know♥️
1 John 5 KJV
13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
Hmmm - seems like there no limit to your gullibility....or ignorance.
@@alexanderbrown2717 Alexander, out of curiosity, why do you come onto Catholic forums quoting the King James Bible? Are you trying find the truth from Catholics? Or are you trying to antagonize people? If you have a genuine question such as why do Catholics believe that they have to do works, I'm more than willing to share to help you in your journey towards God. However! If it is to cause mayhem, then you are not doing God's work. I've added some information about work's to help you: Faith without works
John 8:51
51 In all truth I tell you, whoever keeps my word will never see death.
How do you keep Jesus' word? By doing what he asks of us!
James 2:14-26
14 How does it help, my brothers, when someone who has never done a single good act claims to have faith? Will that faith bring salvation?
15 If one of the brothers or one of the sisters is in need of clothes and has not enough food to live on,
16 and one of you says to them, 'I wish you well; keep yourself warm and eat plenty,' without giving them these bare necessities of life, then what good is that?
17 In the same way faith, if good deeds do not go with it, is quite dead.
18 But someone may say: So you have faith and I have good deeds? Show me this faith of yours without deeds, then! It is by my deeds that I will show you my faith.
19 You believe in the one God -- that is creditable enough, but even the demons have the same belief, and they tremble with fear.
20 Fool! Would you not like to know that faith without deeds is useless?
21 Was not Abraham our father justified by his deed, because he offered his son Isaac on the altar?
22 So you can see that his faith was working together with his deeds; his faith became perfect by what he did.
23 In this way the scripture was fulfilled: Abraham put his faith in God, and this was considered as making him upright; and he received the name 'friend of God'.
24 You see now that it is by deeds, and not only by believing, that someone is justified.
25 There is another example of the same kind: Rahab the prostitute, was she not justified by her deeds because she welcomed the messengers and showed them a different way to leave?
26 As a body without a spirit is dead, so is faith without deeds.
Matthew 25:42-46 (faith without works)
42 For I was hungry and you never gave me food, I was thirsty and you never gave me anything to drink,
43 I was a stranger and you never made me welcome, lacking clothes and you never clothed me, sick and in prison and you never visited me."
44 Then it will be their turn to ask, "Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty, a stranger or lacking clothes, sick or in prison, and did not come to your help?"
45 Then he will answer, "In truth I tell you, in so far as you neglected to do this to one of the least of these, you neglected to do it to me."
46 And they will go away to eternal punishment, and the upright to eternal life.'
Romans 2:7 (Proof of the need for works)
7 For those who aimed for glory and honour and immortality by persevering in doing good, there will be eternal life;
Matthew 7:21
21 'It is not anyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord," who will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but the person who does the will of my Father in heaven.
Matthew 25: 34-40
34 Then the King will say to those on his right hand, "Come, you whom my Father has blessed, take as your heritage the kingdom prepared for you since the foundation of the world.
35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you made me welcome,
36 lacking clothes and you clothed me, sick and you visited me, in prison and you came to see me."
37 Then the upright will say to him in reply, "Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?
38 When did we see you a stranger and make you welcome, lacking clothes and clothe you?
39 When did we find you sick or in prison and go to see you?"
40 And the King will answer, "In truth I tell you, in so far as you did this to one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it to me."
You can lose your salvation by: being unrepentant & harbouring unforgiveness.
An unrepentant person knows that he or she has sinned and refuses to ask God for forgiveness or turn away from the sin. The unrepentant show no remorse for their wrongdoing and don’t feel the need to change. Unrepentance is the sin of willfully remaining sinful.
Matthew 6: 14 if you forgive others their failings, your heavenly Father will forgive you yours;
Matthew 6:15 but if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive your failings either.
Matthew 7:21 'It is not anyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord," who will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but the person who does the will of my Father in heaven.
Matthew 7:24 Therefore, everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a sensible man who built his house on rock.
Mark 11:25 And when you stand in prayer, forgive whatever you have against anybody, so your Father in heaven may forgive your failings too.'
Exodus 32:33, Yahweh said to Moses, 'Those who have sinned against me are the ones I shall blot out of my book.
Hebrews 12: 14 Seek peace with all people, and the holiness without which no one can ever see the Lord.
John 15: 6 Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a branch -- and withers; these branches are collected and thrown on the fire and are burnt.
1 John 4:20 Anyone who says 'I love God' and hates his brother, is a liar, since whoever does not love the brother whom he can see cannot love God whom he has not seen.
You can lose your salvation (2 Peter 2:20-22)
20 and anyone who has escaped the pollution of the world by coming to know our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and who then allows himself to be entangled and mastered by it a second time, ends up by being worse than he was before.
21 It would have been better for them never to have learnt the way of uprightness, than to learn it and then desert the holy commandment that was entrusted to them.
22 What they have done is exactly as the proverb rightly says: The dog goes back to its vomit and: As soon as the sow has been washed, it wallows in the mud.
Ezekiel 18:24-26
24 'But if the upright abandons uprightness and does wrong by copying all the loathsome practices of the wicked, is he to live? All his upright actions will be forgotten from then on; for the infidelity of which he is guilty and the sin which he has committed, he will most certainly die.
25 'Now, you say, "What the Lord does is unjust." Now listen, House of Israel: is what I do unjust? Is it not what you do that is unjust?
26 When the upright abandons uprightness and does wrong and dies, he dies because of the wrong which he himself has done.
Hebrews 10: 26
26 If, after we have been given knowledge of the truth, we should deliberately commit any sins, then there is no longer any sacrifice for them.
Romans 11: 22
22 Remember God's severity as well as his goodness: his severity to those who fell, and his goodness to you as long as you persevere in it; if not, you too will be cut off.

Jesus Christ is perfect.
Jesus Christ name is called The Word of God.
Jesus Christ is the King.
Hebrews 5 KJV
9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;

13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

@@margaretoconnor7077 sorry to hear that you can lose your salvation. I cannot I am sealed by God until the day of redemption.

Look at this wicked Christian that is still going to heaven.
1 Corinthians 5 KJV
1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.
2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
As a practicing Catholic I have been left perplexed with the liberalism of the post Vatican ll church. As a result, I have become increasingly critical of the Pope and many cardinals, bishops and priests. Fr. Rippenger helped me realize this criticism has darkened my heart to the joys Christ desires for us to share through His church in worship of Him. The demons don't care why or how you attack the church but only that you do. That just blew me away. So blessed to have listened to Fr. Rippenger put things in spiritual perspective.
When I see Father Ripperger, I feel like I am seeing a family member. 🌹🙏❤
we are a family, all members of the Body of Christ
Having been attacked by demons before, I believe exactly what he is saying. I grew up Catholic and I am So glad he is shedding light on these serious topics. God Bless You Fr. Chad. You open the eyes of So Many through God. ❤️🙏❤️
I agree with most of this video. I also think Church Militant has an important apostolate as they uncover serious wrongdoings in the church. As a former undercover police officer and investigator, I would say that their work is courageous, spot-on, and necessary. The unnerving fact is that there are laity and seminarians who have suffered enormously because of corrupt and even, in some cases, diabolical clergy.
THANK YOU for adding this very important piece. Agree on all you said.
Church Militant is good in it does bring things into
the light , however they also make their judgements and turn the screws a bit too much on topics for what seems to me to be for their (CM's) own glory too often. Raise the flags, but no need to harpe on it and keep waving the dirty laundry past the point of awareness.
@@bajone02 They’ve gone “on beyond zebra” (to borrow from the Great Seuss) far too often for me. I don’t want to add fuel the ego of M. Voris.
Im sorry but they are liars in various topics and totally sectarian
Found absolute demonic clergy in grade school. Why they are allowed to stay in I do not know. I once asked the priest I saw a demon in if he was happy to be headed to eternal unrest. He said he didn't believe in that. I said I saw it in your face that you know it as fact, that you will suffer for eternity. He was unfazed. I was only in 4th grade facing this monster, alone. Of course Christ saw to it my angels protected me. God help us in these days over fifty years later
Ive been a demonologist for nearly 50 yrs now and never honestly realized the depth abd truth that Ive learned listening to Fr Chad Rippinger.
I think now that I perhaps only understood maybe a third of what I actually needed to know to do my best in my work for God.
I now have a brand new perspective, which i had prayed for for many years.
Thank you Lord for opening my heart, spirit and soul to your deeper truth. My prayer now is that God the Fathef, Son and Holy Spirit and the Blessed Virgin help me walk this greater and beautiful path.
Amen.
This conversation now makes so much sense as I am at the spiritual warfare myself. It was a grueling two-year experience but if there is one thing that I can testify with- is the Truth, the Beauty and the Goodness of our Catholic Church.
Be well blessed, stay in the light.
Same here. 2 years from hell itself. Read the book of heaven by Luisa picaretta. God bless. 🙏🏼
Exactly and absolutely true.
It's always a struggle.
That's great but the one thing you can testify with really should be Yeshua and His Father before anything and everything.❤
“We often see this today: people expect the liturgy to be conformed to their emotional states rather than they conforming themselves to an objective cult, which conforms itself to God.”
― Chad A. Ripperger, Topics on Tradition
Amen. We are supposed to be in Church to worship God, not so that we “feel good.”
Not sure that our liturgy - even the traditional one - conforms itself to God nowadays, for a very simple reason : it is electrified (mics, lights, etc).
@@ColHogan-bu2xq “Not only is a person bound to accept all parts of the Deposit of Faith and all of the irreformable doctrines declared by the councils and popes, but one is also bound to accept the teaching contained in and the legitimacy of all monuments and teachings of the Church which do not contain novelty or contradict the teachings of the Church. This means that if one were to reject the Ancient Rite as evil or heretical, he would be subject to this anathema.”
― Chad A. Ripperger, Topics on Tradition
@@mariyadepeche1658 I know a woman who attends only the Latin Mass because, as she told me, it makes her feel good, unlike the Novos Ordo.
@@Zoomo2697 Likewise, one shouldn't consider the Novus Ordo Liturgy to be heretical. I've had a couple of our self-declared "Traditionalists" tell me that.
"The earth is the intersection between heaven and hell and how much it's like heaven or hell is up to us." - Fr. Ripperger
Been guilty of being negative about Church and politics...am changing that right now!!!!!
99.5% of us listening to this talk are literally unable to change the external evils that we see going on in the world and Church-b/c we are ignorant, lack the vocation, or calling from God.
What we CAN change is our own evil through the grace of God.
Change the world by changing yourself.
I always see Father Ripperger as operating the spigot at the Lord’s Well of Objective Truth…it flows out with every utterance. So fulfilling.
We’re so parched…
Nice imagery
Oh snap didn’t know there was a part 3! THANK YOU GOD BLESS
I know, right! I needed this.
Demons also tend to distract us when we pray. I'm often distracted by negative thoughts concerning current event issues when reciting the Rosary and trying to meditate on the divine mysteries. I'm not possessed. This experience is essentially a form of demonic oppression that can affect anybody besides those who are possessed.
Me too man. It’s the intense temptation. Keep praying Holy Rosary consistently.
That's quite basic demonic temptation that everyone deals with, probably not the level of oppression.
Maybe God is talking to you when you pray, telling about the evil that is hidden around us.
That used to happen to me all the time in the past. It got me so aggravated. However, one of the messages from Our Mother says that the devil is full of pride and very impatient, if one insistently pray then the devil will go away. Therefore, I patiently keep on praying the Rosary daily and whenever I can, then, the distraction go away. By the way, the Rosary has two parts- body and soul. The body of the Rosary is the Rosary and the verbal prayer. The soul of the Rosary is the mental contemplation of the prayer.
@@zenuno6936 I think it's more than demonic temptation. I'm not tempted to become preoccupied with troubling thoughts concerning the state of affairs that have adversely affected my life lately. According to the late chief exorcist of Rome, Father Gabriel Amorth, demonic oppression is the result of demonic activity that escalates with " physical attacks, sleep disturbances (including regular nightmares), frequent and severe illnesses, major depression or anxiety, severe financial or employment problems, or relationship troubles." In my case, I've been experiencing much anxiety this past year and sometimes mild forms of depression, and sleep disturbances because of interminable unemployment and financial trouble because of the strict Covid restrictions imposed by our federal and provincial governments in Canada. These thoughts of how the normal course of my life has been disrupted by the pandemic, and even other bits of bad news such as the war in Ukraine, especially pop up with extreme force and captivation while I'm praying the Rosary or visiting the Blessed Sacrament. It's an internal struggle to discard these thoughts and refocus my attention on prayer and meditation. What helps me to overcome these distracting thoughts and the anxiety that's fuelling them is gazing on the crucifix and maintaining an uninterrupted line of vision. Anyway, I'm in no qualified position to rule that demonic oppression is the cause of my mental and emotional state, but it could be.
I truly needed to hear this today. This was the answer to the question I was wrestling with this morning. God bless you both!
It's not easy dealing with these people. If I were to guess, you encountered the question "Why" (would someone do/say). It's their nature. I was just telling my wife this morning how many times I encountered unsolicited negative "observations" from a certain group of people that I used to be extremely familiar with. I weathered it all, and came out of it stronger.
Now I do exactly what Fr. Rippenger suggests, counter with Positive Perspective. First you must understand, they plant the seeds of doubt and negativity everywhere they can. That seemingly innocuous comment, the one that seems out of place, is aimed at those who are in a weakened state, to sow doubt and self hatred.
It drives them nuts when you counter them and take away their power.
All that said, there is NO greater way to banish these people than to do it in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. It has never failed me when I command the evil spirit to get behind, be gone, and never return. His name alone will silence them, when used with the authority granted you by Jesus. Keep the Faith.
@@Nothing2CHere4U I actually work for a relative who moans, screams, and curses a lot while I try to clean her home. When she gets in one of those moods (all the time) I usually just do a rosary or part of my Bible in a Year on the Hallow app and clean another room, but she started screaming the other morning at the top of her lungs. I go in there and try to figure out what's wrong and she said it was her shoe. Who screams several times over a house slipper coming off? Anyways, she screams so much and I mean literal screaming. I fairly resilient, but listening to someone scream and curse so much does make me anxious on a physiological level. I think she's in a lot of spiritual pain, but she only has the vocabulary to explain it in terms of physical pain. Anyways, it's frustrating and my nerves are slightly shot by the time I leave.
@@Totustuus822 I say this in all sincerity, as a Health care professional. How often is she touched? Massage therapy has an wholistic effect and can help to soothe and regulate the nervous and endocrine systems. Without knowing more, I can only say that physical nurturing has more healing effect than most people realize. It could take some time and persistence, but If you can manage even a hand or foot massage and then note any variance of behavior, like more time between outburst, or a reduction in severity, even if only 1%, it may help you and her to relief and recovery.
I've known and know people who put a portion of their life aside to care for loved ones. You have a beautiful heart, allow the Lord to wok through you. He has chosen many vessels to do his work here on earth, great and small. I pray the best for you both, I know it's not easy, but it does say a LOT about you. Feel comforted by that. Bless you.
@@Nothing2CHere4U that is a really wonderful suggestion. You know, I had to clip her toes and put lotion on her feet a few weeks ago and it was probably the best behavior she's had in years. And no, she lives alone and doesn't get touched. That might be very beneficial for her. Thanks for giving me that insight.
@@Totustuus822 I really hope it helps you both. My Father was a Doctor, but more so a Healer. I followed his footsteps and hope to share whatever I can to help others. My best to you both.
This video called me out personally...... I love it.. lol Praise Be to God!!!! GOD IS SO GOOD AND MERCIFUL!
When we hit a fog in life, we fight back by FOG.... FOCUSING ON GOD.
I can’t even begin to tell you how blessed all of us are to have Father Ripperger’s insights on this platform let alone how much he has helped me try to grow in virtue. May the Lord bless you always in your ministry.
A humble man. This talk just helped me today very much. I woke up distracted by an offhand comment my neighbor said about me. Ruining my thoughts. I’m ready to let that go now.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Just listening to Fr. RIPPERGER’S voice chases my demons away ♥️🙏♥️
Thank you !!! I’ve struggled SO much with negativity. Huge enlightenment. Will be working on this! Thanks be to God
Legion of Mary when you feel negative, pray Long live Jesus, long live Mary lmmaculate at least 3 times. St Padre Pio.
🙏🏼 Amen.
It is great that fr. Chad Ripperger keeps reciting the church fathers because they were there before anyone else
I really enjoy and respect this interviewer. He is humble and inquisitory. He asks good questions and defers to Father. He doesn't talk about himself for too long and only in regards to how it pertains to the question, quickly. He never interrupts father and lets him finish his sentences and ideas.
I've noticed there's some other Catholic shows on CZcams that are just commentary by the man running the show. These men are not theologians or priests. Sometimes I think they say dangerous ideas.
I'm not afraid to listen to this guy.
THANK YOU!
“Ultimate goal in praying is to bring other people to God.” Super 🥰 30:58
Hurray for Part III! Hands down the best interview I have seen ALL YEAR! Thank the Lord for providing this wonderful insight! Prayers for you both! 🤍
Very informative. Many thanks.
I ❤ Fr. Ripperger. He's such a reasonable and sane man. So on point, all the time. I'm grateful he has time to teach and write, as well as deliver. Truly blessed, and a blessing. 😊
Fr. Ripperger is amazing! I love seeing recent videos of him pop up!
I asked a friend if he thought I needed an exorcism and I found this channel , thanks be to God, Amen
Thank you for helping my growth in the Catholic faith. I will go to confession and work on my negative thoughts and change them to positive 🙏
Wow. That “running commentary” at 5:50 -that’s me. Thank you Fr. Ripperger!
This channel gave me a living fighting chance for a godly life and achieving The Lord’s plan for me
Yeah! More Fr. Ripperger! More Chris Stefanick!!!!
We are in a serious situation. Almost to the point of saying "The Church is in a civil war."
My husband and I really, really, REALLY
wish Fr. C.A. Ripperger would do a vid
on the "Annulment Abuse Crisis Scandal".
99% of the annulled and remarried are
living in sin, and need to return to their original VALID spouses at a faster rate than they presently are.
I testified at a wedding and Saint Michel send by Jesus interveented and within twenthy seconds demonic music was turned Down and a song wich I sang in Church as a Roman Catholic boy popped up.
Everybody afterwards left ontime they all got home round twelve o' clock .
I am praying for them weakly to Mary. I wanne be with them in Christ love ❤️ forever.
Fr. I wish I sensirily could hug you as an autistic man.
Hugs of fellow Christians in the parich and outside mean so much to me. It makes me think of Jesus I recognize in a cat of friend of my.
The cat always wants to drink from the tap. It reminds me of Jesus who sais be thirsty for me. I was thirsty and you brought me a drink.
Thank you so much for this video! I felt like someone had just hit me on the head! I have been watching a lot of videos on how bad the pope and the cardinals for a long time. Like your guest had said that developed a very negative view of the church, especially the papesy. Even to point of not wanting to go to Mass. I now see my errors. Thank you! God bless you!
This talk was honestly the answer to my prayers. I only finished the Novena to the Sacred Heart today & i was guided to listen to this recording. It answered a huge question for me. Thank you 🙏✨
Father is so brilliant and indeed puts gems of wisdom throughout his speech...I put the playback at .85 and listened twice to learn as much as I could from his words. Thank you Chris, God bless you and your family.
How do you change the playback speed?
Gosh, I really hope to see more episodes with both of you. All 3 episodes have been incredibly informative and confirming. There's also an excellent dynamic between you, which allows respect and important discussion in a way that's very real and applicable. Thank you for making these, I will be watching them again!
The first 2 seem the same
I agree!
@@joshreeves3369 There's definitely a more unique set of content for episode three, while the first two have more overlap. :) In the end, though, they all tie together to inform and teach us about the ONLY single focus we MUST maintain, which is God. Don't let the enemy shift your focus from Him and our place and purpose in His Creation.

Rejoice always pray without ceasing and give thanks in all circumstances for this is the will Of God in Christ Jesus for me. I say this consistently and it has made such a difference in my lovely. We have to acknowledge the realities of life which are difficult but when we give thanks we live through it all with grace. This is beyond coping it is redemptive even in suffering

What a blessed podcast! Praise God!
I needed to hear this as I spend too much time focusing on all the evils happening. I've decided to follow your advice and focus on thankfulness, kindness and above all, God.
I love these shows!!
So many nuggets of wisdom! Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 are exactly what I needed to hear right now. Thank you & may God Bless you both 🥰
This dude is legit!
Appearance was huge in my nuclear family. As I entered menopause, the weight piled on and nothing I could do to lose it worked. My brother and my Dad both didn't shy off from calling me fat. I had so much self-despising and criticism growing up. Dad died 9 years ago, brother last year. I finally looked in the mirror and told myself, "I am not going to hate you anymore." It's a habit that I have to continuously say. It was so hard to see how God loves me when I am fat and ugly. So now I must really work with God.
You are not ugly
The beauty is not a tissue thing. It is being brave and You ARE brave for loving yourself. I think also You are VERY feminine for being delicate.
They shouldn't encourage the worship of vanity either. Shame on them. This is why I've often hated men although we should never truly hate someone. They have terrible values I'm truly sorry. If they objectify women they walk in a spirit of lust the flesh. Pity them for this as well they are lost. And I may add pray for them.
This man ,my favourite warrior,is so cool.all day most days could watch him and learn,. The man,i know Jesus ,Mary,and the lord of all love him and he is their family ryan
If we could only have a Fr. Ripperger in every Church across the world!
Thank you for this very strengthening & uplifting Fr Ripperger video! God bless & stay positive & joyful :)
The was the best Fr. Ripperger interview. Great job. Made his insights so accessible. Worth watching over and over again.
Thank God for you. You bring truth like no other person. Thank you
Thank you for explaining your faith in such a way that I can connect and understand it. I love these talks and they are very helpful understand that love for yourself is love for God. It's comforting and beautiful. I am so thankful that I stumbled across your talks. My cup is empty and I so look forward to filling it. Thank you, Fr. Ripperger.
This is like the real-life “Screwtape Letters!” So interesting.
I believe my angel brought me here to listen and learn. I struggle with distraction about negative things and even during my prayer time. Whenever I start praying I noticed that my mind becomes ike television with tons of advertisement that I see myself out of focus. Thank you, Father Ripperger for this talk. "KEEP FOCUSING ON GOD".
I will pray for you - the spirits are working on you and you must resist! Keep focusing on God, for He is good and loving, and will renew your mind. Blessings!
I get tempted sexually when I get serious about religion
This is probably the 3rd time I’ve watched this and I’m still learning new things
I've got demons inside me. I never knew how to get out of poverty. I thought I had mental problems that made me unable to make enough money to pay rent. My whole life has been a mixture of lack of housing and a battle to feed my family. Lately, I came to understand that the reason for my struggle has been Landlords possessed by demons of greed. My demons have made my life a misery by never letting me forget that homelessness is just around the bend. They torment me relentlessly. I ask God why this world is so scary to me and the millions of others who are living in deep poverty. The fear never leaves. Nothing is possible without money. There is no escape but death. Being poor in the USA is very hard because people blame you for not being strong enough or smart enough to make more money.
Just thank you and God bless you both and your team. This was such a blessing.
I love these videos. Thank you
I am also a Protestant who finds real spiritual food in this man's ideas. The more I hear, the more I understand the Catholic view of identifying with the saints. Especially Mary. I have never prayed to Mary or a saint. As C S Lewis said, "If we can pray directly to Christ, why would we ever pray to a saint?" Good point, still, there is something to identifying with, coming to a greater appreciation of, and appreciating those who have gone before us and are closer to God than we are. Fr. Ripperger is someone I see in this light. I am sometimes tempted to become a Catholic.
@davidcrowley. Someone explained it to me this way; think of praying to a saint as the same as asking a family member who you know is a great prayer warrior to add their powerful prayers to your own. Praying to saints is just asking our brothers and sisters to support us in our need before the throne of God.
I'm not Catholic. I needed this thank you!
Love this!! Thanks Chris & Father!!
God bless both 🙏 thank you!
So Awesome! Y’all helped me so much. My gosh I’ve been so negative really truly focusing only on the negative. I can’t believe this…Oh Blessed Mary titled Untire of Knots please help me get my thoughts in order to think about You & Your positivity. In Jesus name I pray. May Thy will be done done Lord Amen❣️♥️✝️🙏🏼
You are a great interviewer, Chris. Thanks for letting him talk without interruption and asking good questions!
Thank you Fr Ripperger. Greetings from Ireland
Thanks for this series. God bless everyone. 🙏
Lord bless you, friend. ❤️🙏💞
Loving this series. Thanks.
Thank You for this message!
Fantastic talk explains everything so well
Glad for the clarification on watching videos like this...its educating me!
Great job on this
My dad said about Watergate years ago, "Watergate, Watergate, Watergate. I'm so sick of hearing about Watergate! You know that is the devil's way of keeping you from knowing what's really going on." Surely, Row vs. Wade was about to pass. The devil throws up smoke screens.
This episode helped me personnally. I never realized the effects of my negativity on my spiritual life
Me too!!!
This was my "Snap out of it" wake-up call.
God bless you.
Watched all three episodes. I'm a Protestant and have always believed from day 1 about the devil and demons existence. I've even had a demonic attack happen to me. Exorcists have always interested me, so it's cool to hear stories from one and suggestions on what to do with demonic influences in ones life.
@sarahsays194, if you needed an exorcist, would you look in the Protestant church or the Catholic?
Thank God for His Church, thank God for faithful priests, thank God for priests like Fr Ripperger, Fr Altman, Cdl Mueller, Bishop Schneider, Archbishop Vigano, Dr Taylor Marshall, Sr Miriam, and all the other faithful Cdls, Bishops, Priests, nuns, laity, that help all of us stay the course and pull us back on course when we're veering off corse.
Because of priests like Fr Ripperger, hes absolutely correct; I'll focus significantly more on praying, better learning the bible, and less on all the negative spiritual events presently occurring in the Church and world.
Yt sucks my time and then ends with sadness and anger because of all the cruelty shown on yt. Thank you Fr Chad

Thank you!
This was an AMAZING interview! I have always loved Father Ripperger and especially love seeing the growth in him personally. He walks the walk, as they saying goes. Many, many, thanks and God bless 🙏🏻
I’m not catholic and jus love this!❤️
Thank you Sir and Father Chad.🙏🙏🙏🙏.
WoW. Now we can see why young children are being targeted by evil. If you can get parents to be abusive, neglectful, or lack of affection or protection, you’re going to get children who are emotionally destroyed. . Or the negativity on TV and media, bad friends, etc..
