True, and Parishes don't offer it much either so no one can go if it isn't even offered! 30 minutes to 1 hour on Saturdays won't give enough time for a large Parish to go to Confession!!
It lies with the parish priest. Let priests study and read the life of St. John Vianney, the patron saint of priests. Preach about the advantages of going to Confession. At least either in announcements or sermons , talk about the Sacrament of Reconciliation and its beauty.
Even if 99% of Catholics believed in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist, we'd still have to extoll and teach His Presence to the 1%and the rest of the world who are unbelievers
I think there has been a correction over the years. Priests have been preaching the real presence (some of them), and now we need priests to preach confession.
Transubstantiation is a miracle of faith. The bread and wine don't change chemically. The bread and wine become the body and blood of Jesus because of faith in the words of Christ in the gospels.
It IS the Body,Blood,Soul and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus.Once the transubstantiation occurs during the Consecration,the host is to be treated with the utmost reverence and respect.
In my opinion, I think the majority of the faithful do understand that it's Jesus, they are probably just confused or unsure with the technicalities or the way in which Christ is present.
@@FatherDavidMichaelYeah, just please be careful because Aristotelism is problematic nowadays... I used to be very confused when I was explained transubstantiation until I read Brett Salkeld.
I do believe.. My brain is too small to comprehend it also to understand the mystery of Thrinity.. but I do believe it and know that everything will be "explained " to us after we die..
Honestly, it could also be that the first study caused priests to teach more about it, and it had that great an effect. But I don't know if that would account for the whole disparity.
Or just that people started talking about it, it went a bit viral the previous study. I think both things explained the difference (what you said and the difference in wording).
I have watched The Veil Removed several times on CZcams and it is amazing! I love the Eucharist even more than I ever did. In the words of Dr. Chris Alar, this is powerful stuff. God bless all. Amen
Really appreciate you breaking it down and to bring your perspectives and experiences of your own parish to provide commentary. I pray this doesn't deter the mission we have set ourselves on this past year and to continue until we reach the remaining lost sheep. Keep up the great content!
I would add that geographical location of believers will also affect this. TX vs East Coast will be different . Also age. But maybe in these studies they controlled for those variables
Learning about the teachings of St. Margaret Mary on Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus really increased my love for Jesus in His True Presence. Here we learn how even back during St. Margaret Mary's time (1600's) there was lack of belief and outrages committed against His True Presence.
I think both are accurate. There is a difference between all Catholics and mass attending Catholics. If I recall correctly the number of “former” Catholics would be the largest Protestant denomination if they were all together vs atheists and all the various Protestant denominations they’ve joined.
The on,y time I’ve ever heard of the Real Presence is from CZcams priests… my local diocese just don’t preach the Eucharist is the Real Presence-just watching the priest/deacon grab a handful to place in the Ciborium is heartbreaking. Wonder how many priest believe 🤔
I think the First study was more accurate,sadly. If they second study were true after 2020 we wouldn't have had so many churches closing and parishes combined.
We’re dealing with polls and statistics here and there’s nothing in either poll, nor in the two polls combined, that would support your conclusion here. Neither poll was interested in finding out why churches have been closed.
The jews ate the Passover sacrificial lamb after it was slain, Jesus was the the sacrificial Lamb and he was preparing himself for the death on the cross and told his disciples to eat his flesh and drink his blood the way they would have eaten the sacrificed lamb so it is the new covenant replacing the old and it is real thanks Father !
Seems like a much more reliable study! Makes a lot of sense: you call yourself Catholic but attend Mass rarely, how can you believe in the Real Presence?? On the other hand, you go to Mass at least on Sundays and holy days of obligation, then the odds are much much greater that you truly believe He is really present in the Eucharist. 🔥☘🔥
📜 Philippians 3:19Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is set on earthly things. 20But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ. 21who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
Uh.. if this is to dismiss the eucharist you are using this verse VERY literally. This verse is about the people just indulging in their sin and desires, this has nothing to do with an actual deity being eaten and going into their stomachs. Please do your research on the scriptures and the eucharist to discover Christ's real presence in both.

Confession is where there’s a real crisis. Only 7% go monthly and only 43% go at least once a year.
This is so true. Huge issue. Will work on a video about this!
When the Eucharistic line is longer than the confession line, there is a huge problem

Late thirty’s poorly catechized, thank God for CZcams lol
I believe. The Eucharist is why I am Catholic.❤

Bring back the communion rails.
Absolutely. As a new convert in 2022, I do believe in Christ in the Eucharist, it is his body and blood.
I think there has been a correction over the years. Priests have been preaching the real presence (some of them), and now we need priests to preach confession.
Christ is present in the body and blood of our Lord Jesus. 🐑🐑🐑🕊🕊🕊❤️

Very possible! On us priests to be preaching about it 👍

Father, please pray for my family to get closer to Jesus
I do believe..
My brain is too small to comprehend it also to understand the mystery of Thrinity..
but I do believe it and know that everything will be "explained " to us after we die..
Thanks for watching!
Trinity is explained by St Paul and others. I hope you will read those. Also exists many videos online about Trinity
Thank you, Father. I believe!
Dude, you are so cool. I love your vids. Keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
I do believe. Many blessings from Jakarta
Honestly, it could also be that the first study caused priests to teach more about it, and it had that great an effect. But I don't know if that would account for the whole disparity.
Would be curious to know!

Tenho a certeza absoluta da presença real de Jesus na eucaristia. Porque quando recebo Jesus, sinto profundamente na minha alma.

Thank you, Father, thank you.
A very encouraging study, Father! Sadly, the "seldom" group probably take him for granted or it could be deep shame as well. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Thanks for this video father!
You bet!
@@FatherDavidMichael 😄

Keep up the great content!
May the lord Jesus Christ surround us in his peace and love
Viva Cristo Rey!
Amen!
Thank you for sharing Father. Yes it is the body and blood of Jesus. I am blessed to be an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion of my Parish
I believe in the real presence!📿❤️🙏
You make great videos Father. Keep up the great work!

Thankyou Father what a great Treasure we have in the real presence.
Thank you Fr, thanks for sharing this info with us. Yes I believe in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist 🇿🇦
Holy Eucharist is the shortest and safest way to heaven 🤍✨
How so? Never hear that before
It's the only because it's the body and blood of christ that save us. ❤ Amen
This has been happening in my family, my siblings no longer believe in the true presence of Christ. Our Holy Mother
Pray For Us
CHRIST IS KING! ALLELUIA!
Yes I believe Eucharist is Real Flash and Blood of Jesus Christ ❤
I go to Confession on either weekly, two weekly or three weekly basis. Will never receive our Lord unworthily.
🙏
The link to the study should be in the description. No excuses!
❤
1 Cor 11:27-31 Is very important to see that Paul speaks about the true Body and Blood of Jesus is present in the shared Meal.

Are you going to Indy? I’ll be there

The Eucharist is a major reason I converted to Catholicism. It’s a shame that even still 1/3 don’t believe in the True Presence.
Carlo Acutis knows the answers
The jews ate the Passover sacrificial lamb after it was slain, Jesus was the the sacrificial Lamb and he was preparing himself for the death on the cross and told his disciples to eat his flesh and drink his blood the way they would have eaten the sacrificed lamb so it is the new covenant replacing the old and it is real thanks Father !
Orthodox Christians also believe this
The presence of Christ might depend on how the question was asked.
I don’t necessarily think those 31% are REJECTING the real presence per se, but don’t understand how or why Jesus is present.
Remember this is from actual regular Mass attending Catholics, what about the majority who don’t attend Mass?
I think it was. There was a major shift in focusing on the Real Presence.
Seems like a much more reliable study! Makes a lot of sense: you call yourself Catholic but attend Mass rarely, how can you believe in the Real Presence?? On the other hand, you go to Mass at least on Sundays and holy days of obligation, then the odds are much much greater that you truly believe He is really present in the Eucharist. 🔥☘🔥
Father I see many priest always shouting at other religions so what is ur version on this
Jesus having his presence in the bread is no more miraculous than the fact we r bone n meat tied together by a consciousness that animates us
Our first founding fathers believe that the Eucharist is Jesus and the wine is blood of Christ
I Do, Emphatically!
Poll's can be deceiving and wording. Let your Yes mean Yes and Your No mean No. I So Absolutely Yes!.
People become Catholic because of the Eucharist
Yeah but who acts like they believe? They treat him like a piece of bread in their unconsecrated hands.
What % know what the gospel is????
Prosperity gospel and it's corrosive behaviour
📜 Philippians 3:19Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach,
and their glory is in their shame.
Their mind is set on earthly things.

Theres still 30% of our bretheren who are ill-informed. And many more who are non mass going.
Jesus is really pre sense in the Eucharist.
Eucarist is Real presence God said ,is in the bible. Jn 6:32 -69 ,1 corintians 11:23 , HB 9, HB 10, 1 cor 10:15. Irrefutable.
No they just don't understand English.
Obviously eucharist is a simbol duh...
