In this latest episode of The Road to Emmaus, Scott Hahn interviews Fr. Dave Tomaszycki, compiler and editor of Archbishop's Fulton Sheen's newest book, On the Demonic.
Although the late Fulton Sheen spoke of writing a book about the demonic in 1974, he never completed the work. Nearly fifty years later, Fr. Dave has successfully gathered and compiled all of Fulton Sheen's work on the topic into one complete book!
In the episode, Scott Hahn and Fr. Dave discuss Fulton Sheen's impact on the modern Church, his deep and rich prayer life, and the contents and messages of the book. They also talk about how much of this book was not only relevant in his day, but how it is even more relevant and necessary in the modern world.

Adam and Eve were made perfect and clothed in a garment of light and righteousness. When they sinned, they lost their garment of light that clothed them. From the writings of the mystics.
You might want to correct your typo Fulton not Futon
I hear from some Vatican II was a good idea but was hijacked. So live Vatican II right. Ecumenism only for the rare well grounded in the Faith.
One day I hope you do a whole show, or series, on Archbishop Fulton Sheen.
My neighbor's Catholic school class was required to write a paragraph on the subject of his show as proof they watched it daily.
His show had higher views than Milton Berle's show that aired at the same time..
He'd have made a wonderful pope..
in my very humble opinion.
Thank you & may our Lord reign His blessings & mercy over you both

Venerable Fulton Sheen please pray for us, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen...
About 8 years ago I stumbled upon a Fr. Fulton Sheen throwback video on CZcams. It sparked an interest in the Catholic faith. As a lifelong Protestant I was taught that Catholics are wrong and not Christians, yet This video pried open the door and God blessed me the grace to pursue more info. I can definitively say that I am Catholic in my heart tho not yet a member of the church although I do attend Mass at my local parish.
Oh, bless you! Catholic channels get so many posted comments from angry Protestants who have such wrong ideas about the Church. I often wonder how many of them got their religious education in childhood from Jack Chick comic books. They are deeply convinced and only God's Divine Grace will soften their hearts.
Welcome!
Welcome!!!❤
Catholics are Christians of the apostolic days.
I totally agree - same for me. I decided to go through RCIA and pray I’ll be confirmed next Spring. You should consider being confirmed into the Church! God bless you 🙏📿
A movie on Blessed Fulton Sheen is needed
Venerable*

I used to watch Fulton Sheen every Sunday on TV as a young girl growing up in Sydney Australia in the sixties. What a true blessing he was to the Catholic Church.
I enjoy listening to him speak from videos I’ve seen
I listened to sheen as a ten year eleven year old. By myself..he was a blessing. In LA CA USA.
Agreed!!!
God bless. 🙏
Peace out from South Texas.😎🌴😀
Me too as child in NY. State
Watched Life Is Worth Living. as a nine year old. I loved it! God blessed us with a very holy man.
Fr. Corapi would say our Mother wears combat boots ❤
He did say that and I love that thought. Our Holy Mother is continually fighting for our souls. Her combat boots represent peace and love as her and God’s Son want us to live.
@@Roman-Labrador “Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?” (Song of Solomon 6:10)
In other words, (37:04)!
I listened to Fulton sheen in Las Angeles CA suburbs 65 years ago. I was very drawn to him even though a young child...what a blessing he was to me and many..😊
Fr. Tomaszycki is a great blessing to us here in the Archdiocese of Detroit!
Dear Father Dave Tomaszycki! 🙏🏻 I met him the day he returned to the parish where he had served as a seminarian intern, returned to celebrate Mass as a newly ordained priest. I was living elsewhere when he served as a seminarian, so I hadn't got to meet him then. But I had just moved back into the Port Huron parish of my childhood when he came to celebrate that Mass. I don't recall if it was his first Mass as a newly ordained priest -- the Archbishop gives the newly ordained the choice of where to celebrate their first through however many Masses before they are sent to their new parish assignments. I think it's 2 or 3 Masses, one each at the parishes that helped to form them into the priestly life. Anyway, Father Tomaszycki struck me particularly as strong against the devil, carrying the strength of Jesus with him wherever he went. I'm not the only one who noticed these feelings or this presence, so I'm not saying I was having a unique mystical experience. I received a blessing from him that day, my first time receiving a blessing from a newly ordained priest, so it was pretty special. I've been holding God to the promise of that blessing ever since, that is, I'm reminding myself that I am strengthened by the blessing of God through His servant, Father Tomaszycki, in a particular way. And I've been praying for Father ever since, especially that he stand firm in Christ through all onslaughts of the devil. He returned to our parish again that summer to fill in when the Pastor _In Solidum_ was on vacation, and that's the last time I've seen him. I did notice his name in the news, at least Catholic news, and am very pleased to see that he was appointed Priest Secretary to Archbishop Allen Vigneron. It's fitting that he is also serving on weekends at Our Lady of Sorrows Parish, given the strength of Our Lady under this title in combating the devil. Father Dave is nothing special without Jesus, may God bless him for making himself a conduit for our Lord in this world. He's in my daily prayers, and I'm also stopping right now to pray 3 Hail Marys for his intentions 🌹🌹🌹🙏🏻✝️ and also for Dr. Scott Hahn and the St. Paul Institute 🌹🌹🌹🙏🏻✝️
Lovely witness. Thank you!
This discussion is just wonderful, both Father and Dr. Hahn enmesh their depths of knowledge to explain the great mind of Bishop Sheen. This is tremendous and necessary information for spiritual warfare. What a grace. Thank you!
Thank you St Paul Center for helping me learn more about religious teachings
I found Archbishop Futon Sheen on CZcams 2 years ago. I have broken a relationship on the idolatries coming from the political left. I didn’t know that at first. I fond a book with his face on it in a dusty thrift shop in Olathe, Kansas. So, I knew he was trying to speak to me after I found that book. I’ve bought 2 of his books since. The book of communism is so powerful I can only take the book in increments because how powerful his explanations are. That is when I knew that we all have been fooled. Thank you, and I love that you’re giving memorial to this man. I think he should be nominated as saint that fights objective philosophers.
Its the synagogue of satan. keyword synagogue.
I only accept, trust, believe fr. Sheen. He is a true holy man.
@@holyghostgal sheen is speaking thru Jesus.
@@holyghostgalleave your man made protestant CULT
May the LORD bless you more and more.
Thank you so much.
Loved this conversation! Thank you gentlemen! Blessed Archbishop Fulton Sheen , pray for us!
Oh, Bishop Sheen had such a good sense of humor. I loved how he'd get down to his lesson and right in the middle of it all put that funny vibe into it. Scott Hahn is similar in that approach as are others. Yes, we must be serious about being good Catholic Christians, but we also must help bring about the Kingdom with a lightheartedness that expresses the joy associated with what's ahead. IMHO, that is what true fulfillment of the Kingdom is all about! Laughter and soaring high on Eagle's Wings! Oh the thought of it makes me love our God even more!! ❤😊
“They’ll change the world, but they won’t change themselves” such a good observation
Love Fr. Dave, I remember his love for Fulton Sheen when he was an associate Pastor at my former parish. Can't wait to read his new book!
Ordering 2!! God bless and continued prayers for Fr. Dave and Mr. Hahn… I fall more deeply in love with the Catholic Faith with wonderful podcast such as this!!
When the communion line is long and the Confession line is short, we have major problems...
You do not need to go to a priest to confess sins, I too once believed that in catholic church, God shoed me differently as I was on folie for god, christ, got baptized a 2nd time, as you are to have a personal relationship, be born again matters catholic church doesn't preach sadly.someone asked how i thought god would condemn them for being gay( I answered, god doesn't hate the sinner, but the act, same as a hetero person havongcs3x outside marriage, sin is sin
@@veev2561Confession is a gift and the priest is “in persona Christie,”, frequent confession helps keep us free the right pat. We are to hate the sin, live the sinner as God does, but we we need to go to a priest even if sins are venial, to gain grace and strength to avoid mortal sin. Exorcist Fr. Ripperger recently mends regular scheduled prayer, like the Angelus ay 6-12 -6 to draw folks who have been lax & mired in mortal sin back to God and spiritual safety, away from the devil’s lures.
@@veev2561 Where is the sacrament of confession in the Bible?
As soon as Jesus rose from the dead and earned salvation for us, he brought his apostles a new gift. After speaking peace to them, he said, “As the Father has sent me, even so I send you” (John 20:21). Just as Jesus was sent by the Father to reconcile the world to God, Jesus sent the apostles to continue his mission.
Jesus then breathed on the apostles. This is a verse that is often passed over, but it has extraordinary significance because it is only the second time in all of Scripture where God breathes on anyone. The other instance was at the moment of creation, when God breathed his own life into the nostrils of Adam. This should tell us that something of great importance is taking place. Upon doing this, Jesus said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained” (John 20:22-23).
Notice that Jesus is not simply commissioning the apostles to preach about God’s forgiveness. He is not saying, “Go tell everyone that when God forgives men’s sins, they’re forgiven.” In using the second person plural you, Jesus is telling his apostles that by the power of the Holy Spirit he has given them the power to forgive and retain the sins of men. Having the power to forgive and to retain sins implies that the apostle knows what a person’s sins are, which in turn implies oral confession. Otherwise, how is the apostle to know what to retain or forgive?
In the same way that Jesus gave his apostles other supernatural powers (such as raising men from the dead), he gave them power to absolve sins (raising them from spiritual death). In Matthew 9, we read that Jesus forgave a paralytic and then healed him so “that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins” (Matt. 9:6)
After he exercised this power as a man, the crowds glorified God for having given “such authority to men” (Matt. 9:8, emphasis added). Notice that Matthew indicates this power to forgive sins had been given to men, and not simply to a man.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen was an amazing preacher of Truth. I learned so much about my faith in Jesus as a child listening to Life is Worth Living.
I ordered the book. I love reading Fulton Sheen' s writing. And Dr. Hahn, in my opinion, the greatest theologian of our times. Love his books!
Thank you I just ordered Fulton J Sheen book.
The devil will give you whatever you want, as long as he owns your soul eternity. This is why Mama Mary said to pray the rosary everyday, all 4 mysteries because it protects you from demonic ways.
I've already pre-ordered a few copies.

Ordering this book. Father Dave was an associate pastor at my former parish. He loves Bishop Fulton Sheen and we all were blessed as he shared his love for Bishop Fulton Sheen. Sounds like this is needed for our world today. Thank you Father Dave!
This is a great discussion! Much needed for today! Thank you! Praise Jesus ✝️✝️✝️
A great conversation between two good men
On this topic, I would like to take a moment to warn parents and grandparents out there about a song that is being promoted as a "nurse rhyme" called Johnny Johnny Yes Papa.
The lyrics are: Johnny Johnny? Yes, Papa. Eating Sugar? No, Papa. Telling lies? No, Papa. Open your mouth (revealing evidence that sugar was indeed being consumed). Ha, Ha, Ha.
This song has several variations on almost every kid show, including the very popular show Cocomelon. In every iteration, the character caught in a lie merely laughs at being caught.
Is it so far fetched that the father of lies would introduce a nursey rhyme teaching children to lie, that lies aren't a big deal, and that lies are fun?
Great episode, thank you.
This is an excellent discussion. I'm definitely buying this book!
This is great. XOXOXO
Also, "Half an hour's meditation each day is essential, except when you are busy. Then a full hour is needed." - Saint Francis de Sales
Yes, please do a whole series on Archbishop Fulton Sheen!!
He spoke about the 2 churchs living side by side, with the anti Church looking catholic on the outside, but worldly and devoid of supernatural faith on the inside.
Well, the man was a prophet because thats exactly what i see today.
For those who feel they dont have time and maybe if a mother has a child that kept her awake all night she will not feel like spending a half hour in prayer.. I missed daily mass when my children were going to school while been pregnant at the same time.I realised br offering my day to the Sacared heart Of Jesus my day could be a twenty four day of prayer.❤
Thanks for all you do....st. Paul center
My earliest memories are those of me and my mom watching St Archbishop Sheen on our tiny black and white TV. As a 60+ adult, I can only now appreciate the Catholic wisdom and wit of this contemporary saint. And I emphasize that he should already be a saint.
It’s unfortunate that Cdl. Spell- man picked a fight w/Bsp Sheen. We earn from Fr. Charles Murr’s book , The Godmother, that Cdl. Spellman was able toblock Bsp Sheen’s advancement to Cardinal, sadly.
My parish offers confession almost every day of the year.
That is excellent! The Church I attended in Florida offered the Sacrament of Confession once a week on Saturdays at 8AM. I bet that was well attended lol!
blessign for us is this podcast . Thank you St Paul Center
"Confession is the cross." 😢😮 Deep.
Yes. Your confession removes the nails in Christ's hands and feet. Our sins push them in further.

Great show, Mr. Hahn! Thanks…
Good video, I enjoyed this
Please pray for us, Venerable Fulton Sheen!
There is a documentary on the life of archbishop Fulton J. Sheen , 2010 Ignatius Press called "Servant of All". Also he did go to Australia (its in the doc..)
As much as I LOVE, absolutely LOVE Scott Hahn, as an interviewer with guests, Scott cannot help but dominate the conversation rather than allow the guest to speak so we can HEAR (James 1:19) what HE wants to share with us about the book HE wrote.
Love as Jesus Loves, Allan
Bishop Sheen sat in front of the Eucharist every day for guidance. He did from the time he was ordained. He said anyone that has important decisions, sit in front of the Eucharistic.
Thank you. I didn't know he did this.
We hope all your books are available in all St. Paul bookstores in the Philippines
Great episode, thank you so much for sharing!!
Fulton Sheen is all over YT and still great content.
Thank you this was amazing. I just ordered the book!!!!
It's so great, though he has moved on, that future generations can see and hear this delightful individual convey his thoughts, learning humour , and life.
One thing good about technology(?) when so much of it is utilised for evil.
Sincere Blessings to all humanity, especially children and women. ❤🕊🙏✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🎆
Thank you, Both so much GBY
This is a phenomenal discussion! The 3 signed of the Demonic....how relevant is that today? "Confused Identity". I'm excited to read this book! Thank you for this.
Amen 🙏
Great video! Thank you Brothers!
Great il wait for it on amazon uk
I see the term in new age, " you are gods, you can be like gods to creste what you believe"
Great. Show. /: Book, great. Brothers,v. Thanks
Need more confession times! And with all respect, priests need to schedule time even if no one comes for a while. It will take time!!!
We also need the priests to give the last rites when someone dies. I could not get a priest to come to the hospital for my cousin in Florida. He died without his last rites although it was 7:30 PM. This happened Nov 10, 2023. I thought that the reason for the existence of Priests with Holy Orders was to celebrate Masses and to administer the Sacraments.
@@pspears4741 I am so sorry. 😞 prayers for your cousin.
St Pope Pius X said "All the strength of satan's rein is due to the easy going weakness of Catholics". Let us preach in the world to the world!!!
I love this!
The devil divides... God unites...accept Jesus' invitation to God's Kingdom
Fulton Sheen was a Prophet and is a Saint
He never named the enemy behind communism...
@@rosemarymccarron3887 Sure about that?
The Holy Name of Jesus, the Holy Blood of Jesus, the Mother of Jesus, protect and save us. Amen.❤
Communism and Free Masonary is in the Governments, the healthcare world wide and in Religions. WW11 never ended. THANK YOU FOR bringing to light Bishop Fulton Sheens insights brought forth through love of God esp in the Holy Eucharist ,love for Our Mother Mary and Jesus Church. GOD BLESS YOU both 💖and prayers Kathy,watched him when I was a kid Deo Gratius
The devil's 'I am who am not' reminds me of a final line of The Usual Suspects: 'The greatest trick Satan ever worked was to convince people he didn't exist.' An preparatory trick was to get us to represent him as as the red, horned beast... which of course no rational person would believe in.
Quote from French poet Charles Baudelaire.
How important this book is at this time.
Our country is so divided right now.
It clearly lets you know who is trying to be in charge!
Jesus is always in charge. Though He loves us enough to allow us to have free will.
The culture is truly demonic and people are beginning to wake-up to it.
I believe that people are wholeheartedly starting to realize that God has been missing in their lives and are now intentionally seeking Him!
God bless America! 🙏
This was interesting.
I love Fulton Sheen. I am fortunate to be old enough to remember him when he still lived among us. His amazing intelligence allowed him to see through all the smoke and mirrors and then to communicate the Faith so successfully. He obviously knew that words matter. Words have consequences. It is no coincidence that Jesus is the WORD of God.
When it comes to contraception, Scott gets it right… Father not so much. The Catholic Church is not opposed to birth control, She is opposed to contraception. Humana vitae is subtitled “on controlling births”. In it, Pope Paul VI teaches that only the married couple has the right to regulate births. That is to control births. But, he says, that there is a licit and an illicit way to control births. Parents have the responsibility of determining how many children they are able to support. The church calls parents to be generous, but she does not call them to be reckless. There are serious and legitimate reasons at times to limit or postpone having children. What the church is against is contraception. Contraception literally means “against conception”. Natural Family Planning is so named because it conforms to the Natural Law., not because it is “natural” as in versus artificial. So many people get this wrong! Coitus interruptus is 100% “Natural“ and it is also 100% mortality sinful. Anything one does to actively prevent conception is contraceptive and sinful. This is an important distinction..
The other thing which father Dave brings up (Fr. is not the only one who repeats) is the concept that Cain didn’t offer the best of his produce. Go back and read it. Read it again. No where does it intimate that Cain gave inferior produce/grain/fruit. One offers sacrifice as a sin offering/atonement. The Bible is very explicit, as Dr. Hanh has often pointed out, that atonement for sin requires the spilling of blood. One can offer vegetables/wheat/bread/oil as thanksgiving, but not as atonement.
Connecting all the dots of Salvation...I Love this interview/discussion, involving the writings of Bishop Sheen. He is a favorite of mine,since I was but a small child. To me with his purple cape, he was the Superman of The Trinity, with Jesus and Mary, with St. Joseph,as well, depicting their Fiats/roles in our Salvation/ Refuge... and Satan and the deception he truly is, that constantly tries to lead us astray, however, Holy Mary was given The Power; by God , Our FATHER, The Wisdom; by God The Son, and Love and Mercy; by God The Holy Spirit, to turn us around, with this Grace, to defeat the devil, and Lead us through the Narrow Gate, if individually, we so choose..that Line in the sand, where we Choose; Excellence/Christ over Evil/ Satan. Jesus does't put anyone into Hell, where you live, isolated...You put yourself in Hell...and Throughput eternity, you Hate Yourself, because of Your Choice
I like Pierre Teilhard de Chardin and the concept of a spiritual evolution. That there’s two paths you can take with every choice you make. Creative☯️Destructive Join☯️Separate
He was an instrument of God guided by the Holy spirit 🙏 ❤ words thoughts and sharing God's word and jesus said I am telling the truth ❤ God The father ❤ of the son and the holy Ghost Amen. He was our Spiritual leader and a beautiful soul
I am almost blind and wondered if this book will be available and for a Kindle or other electronic reader if so is there any way of letting me know when it is available? )
Fulton Sheen reminds me of GK Chesterton, in that they both had such a clear view of truth that their observations and conclusions apply for any time and place.
Edit: And then I hear that Chesterton wrote the foreword on his doctoral thesis. 😄 I suppose I should just listen and learn.
Can never understand why anyone would go to the "new" Mass knowing that it was composed by a Freemason Annibale Bugnini and Six Protestant ministers. The Novus Odor Mass shows it's fruit by having Seventy Three Percent of the parisheners not believing in the real presence of the Body and Blood in the Holy Eucharist. Recommend listening to Father Malachi Martin's video called Catholicism Dethroned, made thirty-five years ago. Prayer and Penance.
Thank you both for this discussion ♥️
Thank you both for such an edifying talk. To say I enjoyed it is an understatement. You've filled me with an enthusiasm for Adoration.
I slip into a small chapel beside me a couple of times a week and stay to recite the Rosary. I know I should extend it, and if possible, make it daily. Scott Hahn says that the holy hour would include Mass? Did I get that right? I'd really appreciate clarification on that.
God bless both of you. We need priests like Fr Dave and theologians like Dr Hahn. (Love your books, btw)
My understanding is you pray as you can. An hour of Adoration is the stated goal but no less prizes given if you only can go a few minutes a day, or a full hour more than once in awhile. Adoration time is usually not phrased as part of holy mass. Those are different forms of prayers. 65 years of faithful Catholicism backs that answer. Others may give you different responses. Do what you feel called to do!
@@bajone02 Thank you for your reply. I really appreciate it. I love Adoration AND Holy Mass. I'll keep dropping into the chapel for Adoration and try to attend Mass every day.
just ordered it
I believe the sacrement of confession should be included in weapons ...
The volume is so low on this that one misses many parts of the convo. Would you consider reposting it with higher volume
Beautiful 👍👍
Thank you for the very enlightened discussion Fr. Dave and DR. Hahn
I ordered this book….there is so much I want to say. Confession 1/2 hour a week for a huge parish. What does that communicate to the laity?
The answer: Zombiefied clergy.
Our parish, no adoration for years.
That's what our parish does. It's infuriating
Typical NO
@@alan-muscat... and no confessional box in my parish- no schedule for confession either. This what we are getting under PF leadership
Try to locate a copy of Sheen's audio tape homily on the demonic.
It’s on you tube
AMEN!!!
The nudity point is kinda crazy. Before I converted, I used to have a decent following on tumblr. I deleted my account when coming to Christ. But let me tell you. Pretty much all lgbtq Ideas/ ideology came from tumblr. There are tumblr posts qouted in college papers when talking about lgbtq related topics. The website is jokeingly called a hellsite by its users. I am starting to realize maybe that nick name is kinda fitting.
Theres also a ton of users who believe in full public nudity too. Like it's crazy. The way it's presented is very convincing. I would actually argue that a lot of the content on there is grooming straight from the devil himself.
I would love tkk ok go to mass daily and confess daily because I think it’s worst to receive communion in sin that not to receive it.
had we only listened..... Saint Fulton Sheen, Ora pro nobis!
We not only didn’t listen we invited it into the church
I think part of the saints relevance is because we're still living in a technocratic society.
Is this guy like the guy from the Catholic talk shows brother or something? They don’t say their last names much but I know he is Slavic.
Also the chaos in the church spilled into the world.
It entered the Church FROM the world.
Opening prayer:.
Lord Jesus, you are the light of life.
Bless us as we listen to your teachings.
Teach us the way of integrity, and to live in righteousness and truth.
Bless our hearts with understanding so that we may be able to change and obey your words of eternal life.
Let your words serve as the mirror of our souls.
Let your words of life Establish your kingdom into our daily lives.
Empower our faith with knowledge and wisdom, and fear of the Lord.
Teach us to do your will even in times of sorrows and sufferings.
Pardon us for what we fail to do and grant us the grace to show greater love for you than anything else.
Forgive our sins and restore our love for you.
Make us worthy to stand before your presence.
Bless us and be with us.
May your holy spirit teach us to love one another.
May we worship you with clean hearts
May we always seek to live in your light and in truth and hide nothing from you.
And may your words, like good seeds, take deep roots into our hearts, and bear fruits of love, humility, faithfulness, and obedience to your will and give glory and honor to your name. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
Montini said, there is the style of the rites. This appears to
“conspire to impede understanding” of the liturgy for modern man who desires
extreme intelligibility. Again, corruption of the primitive ideal, and the
Fog Curtain.
Montini warns against excluding modern man from the “inner spiritual
precincts” of the Sacred Liturgy. We must therefore “transform the difficulty
posed by the liturgical rite.”
Analogous to watering down of true liberal education in the west. Mortimer Adler warned of the consequences if education went this way,and the traditional movement did the same with respect to liturgy because they knew liturgy drives theology
Sounds like we have a Sede here.
@@PalermoTrapani nope. The seat is not empty, it’s filled. Many bad Popes in the past. Engage with ideas/arguments or else I can only conclude that you’re a sophist.
@@TheGringoSalado Not a sophist my friend, but when someone uses the name "Montini" rather than Pope Paul VI one could legitimately come to the conclusion of a Sede mindset. So step out and look at your statement from how one would understand it.
So the Seat is filled but many bad popes. Ok, you say I am a sophist. Let my try to engage your position with some questions.
Are you perhaps one of those groups that since Vatican II has moved from the straight Sede position to one of Sedeprivationism. That is the Popes since Vatican II are the Pope in the Formal sense but the Church is in a static mode and all Popes since Vatican II can't teach anything authoritatively . Therefore, only when a Vatican III is called to clean up Vatican II can a future Pope once again exercise the Papal Magisterium.
Yes there have been not so good Popes among the 267 who held the Chair in Rome (Bishop of Rome). Many who were Pope were not nor will ever be canonized Saints. That to me shows the promise Christ made to Saint Peter (MT 16:18) that the gates of hell will not prevail, and that God is in charge even when there is a not so good Pope.
Cheers
@@PalermoTrapani good questions here. One can’t ignore the obvious issues in church leadership today. I do not find it reasonable to hold that to be Catholic today is to mimic Protestants. The NO is objectively speaking a Protestant service (which I do attend). It veils sacrifice, it encourages irreverence for the body, places laity on the same level as Priests, and orients mass away from God. This does not hold to tradition, contradicts countless Pope’s and intellectually leads to indifferentism and the nihilism we see in the west. Prayers for you and yours in these times. 🙏
Fulton Sheen did visit Australia.
Amen 🙏
The lamp of the body is the eye...
Everything you see with your eyes will enter your heart. If you want God in your life, if you desire to live in righteousness and truth and choose to do good and serve the Lord, you will have Godly eyes and will have a good heart.
If you have good eyes of love and mercy to see the needs of the the poor, if you care for the sick, for the hungry, for the lonely, if you pardon and pray for sinners and see their need for God for the forgiveness of their sins, and for their conversion and salvation, if you seek only what's good for your neighbor, then your body will be filled with light and of the Holy spirit.
But if your eyes are bad, evil will enter your heart. If you have adulterous eyes you'll commit adultery either with your heart or with your whole body. If you have greedy eyes you could become a thief.
If you love evil, you will have no fear of God. And the devil will always give you strength to do evil things against God and against your neighbors. Also if you love evil, if you despise the poor, and the hungry, and disrespect the elderly, you will become merciless and your heart be filled with cruelty.
If you don't want God in your life your body will be in great darkness because no one will stop you from sinning. Only God can set you free from slavery of sin.
Those who love evil and choose to live in darkness and sin are under God's curse.
Choose not to be among God's enemies.
Choose not to be among the devil's servants. Those who trust in the Lord will never be put to shame. Those who choose to serve the Lord are children of light because they do what is right and just.
Demons love me and constantly hound me.
Satan mixes 99% truth with 1% lies and the most damming part of his lie lures people down his evil path.
...Jesus, peace be upon us...
As opposed to what followers of that other religion say: M... peace be upon him.
