A Church in Crisis w/ Dr. Ralph Martin! 

Bless you!

I agree and say it also, now I must say it more ❤️

I agree. Such a gentle and humble spirit.

A little tone-deaf regarding abuse victims, however.

The great thing is that my parish priests is one of the leaders in renewal ministries.

@@christophercregar247 Elaborate, please.

@@nate9331 he said something like abortion is a greater sin than the abuse scandal in the church. I don’t think that is an appropriate comment. Many lives have been ruined and the reputation of the church has been horribly damaged.

God bless YOU!!!

This is beautiful. God bless you.

Blessed words!

God bless you for this humble statement of repentance. You have inspired me

Thank you for bith these consoling and encouraging words.

T vddfff🎉😂😂

Amen i

What is it about nuns laughing at the St. Michael’s prayer ? I’m in shock. !

I used to pray the long version every day at noon when I first converted. Fr. Riperger says that lay people shouldn't say it though.

Fr. Chad Ripperger says long prayer restricted from the laity. Disobeying that takes you out from under the the authority of the Lords protection and could make you vulnerable. Studying it to understand the Pope’s mindset has merit.

There's no thumbs down on the video I can see. God Bless!

YES! God bless you.

@@tlsmith9647 yes, there are 73.

Maybe because they're Not Catholic at all? ...Or Maybe sometimes people Hate hearing the Truth?

Their probably trolls

A true balance of love and orthodoxy. Beautiful man!

There’s no charity without Truth. Vatican II is a lie. Face the Truth. This man totally sugar coats; who are you (and he) kidding?

To be honest and forthright Bishop Barron is no Bishop Sheen.

@@reveilleamerica3589❤️AMEN❤️

Thankyou from the bottom of my ❤

“Level headed” = right on.

He should organize an online Catholic Bible study.🙏🙏🙏📚✝️⛪

@@SandyVTA Fr. Mike Schmitz is doing an awesome job with that. "Bible in a Year" podcast.

EXACTLY! I was like, “EVERYBODY! THE WORLD IS LACED WITH DYNAMITE! … Hallelujah!”

Absolutely right. Spot on

Amen!

What an awsome presentation Ralph. God be with you.

Halfway through the talk, I took out my rosary and started praying 🙏🏻

Speaking Truth is that Jesus’ finished work was enough. He certainly doesn’t need Mary’s help😭

@@dottieryan5574 Amen. When he said almost at the end the story that the lady after converting was smashing the images of Buda, same needs to be done in the Vatican and also removed evil pieces that are saved in their basement from other gods around the world. I never understood the emphasis that charismatic churches put on believers and that that they need to speak in tongues, even thou the Bible is clear that it is the smallest gift and that Abba gives to anyone different gifts. Sometimes more than one, but it doesn’t mean that it is tongue plus another gift. Also believers need to be wise because there is also people that are faking it, or receiving demonic languages. 1 Corinthians 14:1-40 1 Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. 2 For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. 3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. 4 He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. 5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying. 6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine? 7 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? 8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle? 9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air. 10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification. 11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me. 12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. 13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. 14 For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. 15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. 16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? 17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified. 18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. 20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. 21 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. 22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. 23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? 24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: 25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth. 26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. 27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. 28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. 29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. 30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. 31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. 34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law. 35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. 36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only? 37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. 38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. 39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. 40 Let all things be done decently and in order. We need to bring our fears to Abba and confess to Him and to your brothers and sisters when you have done wrong to them, not to just go and confess to a priest( in old days and could still now, some were even spies). Abba died once for our sins and all we need to do is repent, pick up your cross every day renew your mind every day in is word( no books that talk about the bible or theologians books), also said that what you learn in the Bible to go and do( not be iddle) and spread the good news. Always remember the thief that was dying next to Our Emmanuel, the answer to him was that he was going to be with him in paradise that day, no after baptism or after the church prayed for 9 days to move from purgatory. John3:16- Jesus christ is the only way.

Of course He doesn’t NEED her help. He WANTS her help. She’s His Mother. What is wrong with you?

Rural living can be difficult-we have a house in remote South-West France.

@@cecilefox9136 Yes Cecile, l believe we were designed for community. I love time alone and the beauty of nature but l need a few close connections to sustain me. At the moment I'm doing this by phone. May you be blessed with spiritually nurturing friendships there in beautiful France. Bon nuit😊

@@ANA-dk7lt I haven't been there for two years now but I hope to return this summer!P.s I live in Pamplona in Northen Spain.Thank you for the blessings and the wish for good friendships too!

BEAUTIFUL Testimony, ANA. THANQ so much. 🙏🌹

I hope you have found a community. I live in SW Scotland a spiritual wasteland apart from one small light. Here if you need anything

Remember that St. Paul said "I rejoice in my tribulatios" and "work out your salvation in fear and trembling", and never forget that Jesus said he would be with us all days until the end of the world"

Bless you! Jesus meets us where and when we need Him. God bless you for listening to this and deciding to unconditionally love and serve the Lord.

Thank you for this beautiful message of truth and hope. Jesus heal us

Ralph Martin’s two books on the Crisis in the Church are very revealing. The collection of lectures, letters and essays of Absp. Carlo Maria Vigano, in the book, A Voice in the Wilderness, edited by Bran McCall s a must read forCatholcs and non Catholics alike as it addresses the Church, the world, and the United States in particular where the Absp.served as the Papal Nuncio for a number of years until Pope Francs’ visit to speak in front of Congress in 2014.

Ralph was a leader in the early charismatic renewal where my wife and I were very active. Met my best friend Scotty Bourne there he’s a deacon. Also, Father Scanlan, and a couple of nuns that were instrumental in starting Franciscan U at Steubenville. Solid and enduring. We learned prayer groups at our parishes for many years. I’m still writing at 88

I recently came across his book “Fulfillment of All Desire.” It looks so good to me! I haven’t got it yet but I plan to get it.

Look back on YT at his 2 series last advent and lent taken from his book fulfilment...They are wonderful accompaniment to the book

@@jenyoung2473 We are so glad the series was a blessing to you! If anyone else is interested, you can find the videos here: ru-vid.com/group/PLLK1vk61R6yivbCpTrTo2MloM6hMtVuxz.

@@riverjao do it! I don't think it is a stretch to say that it is the most spiritually impactful book I've ever read, apart from the Bible of course!

@@riverjao that sounds good! What a great title

Reminds me of what my Protestant friends used to say, "God's not finished with me yet!"

Praise God!

Our Lady of Fatima told the Children most people go there for sins of the flesh. Sad. Pray as MARY asks. Save a life, save your life 🙏🩸🙏 There is Purgatory for those that fall a little short of HEAVEN. Purgatory is always relative to time/sin… eventually all there get to HEAVEN, HOORAYS ❤

Thank you for clearing the fact regarding it not being the current President Bolsonaro that visited the vatican with a mistress. I was shocked hearing ot said, as I don't have that view of him.

These and other horrors are why I do not respect this pope, although in Church I mutter under my breath for his conversion to the Catholic Church

"With Pope (X), the behavior is the message." Nope. Not really, (starting with Peter). The behavior can be criticized, as Paul called out Peter publically for not practicing what he preached (see Galatians, and Acts 15), but Paul continued to recognize Peter as the "Rock", "Cephas". So should we.

Benjamin W. You want to go back and listen to the entire conversation. The meatier part is midway to the end. I'm going back to take down notes and purchase this latest book to giveaway for Christmas. Esp to Jesuit friends.

@@tellyhow6281how about that Jesuit that is supposed to be our pope????????!????

Putin seems not to mind setting (Ukrainian) churches ablaze (he doesn't seem to discriminate, destroying them whether Orthodox or Catholic), and his soldiers have also struck many other nonmilitary targets such as hospitals. Accidents happen (the Notre Dame fire may be an example) but...really?

Isn't the Pachamama like, a branch of God's love, directed towards nature and how we should respect the environmen? I read this as a commentary in my catholic bible edition (Biblia católica para jóvenes, in spanish)

@@VanillaBean15 pagan gods are not a branch of God’s love. Pachamama isn’t the goddess of the environment only part of its topography.

Covid was a test run for the Powers that exist. It worked… the Church capitulated for the first time in history. Not of the Holy Spirit. It will happen again as it worked for the super wealthy. The USCCB did not want to lose their government paychecks… money like that is evil. Now they are afraid of this crazy pope. They don’t want to lose their retirement MONEY…. Dismiss GOD. Shameful, 😢😢😢

@@VanillaBean15if you LOVE GOD you will love HIS CREATION. Pollution of any kind is evil. What sadness you cannot honor GOD and HIS CREATION, you will answer to GOD when you stand before HIM😢

I just said three Hail Marys for you folks. And God bless you and your mission.

That’s beautiful ❤

I just said three Hail Marys for you. From one struggling Catholic to another.

Some parishes try, but bishops have it removed and minimized.

@@j2muw667 They just need to pray it after Mass, just before the final blessing, then there’s no reason to object. The Church desperately needs it!

Post VaticanII, the St. Michael Prayer, rosary and exposition g the Blessed Sacrament were “nixed”, Marla’s Fridays and Ember Day fasts were dropped. Full flags Modernism took over. S. Pope Pius X was likely dismayed as hiss oath against Modernism was dropped.

@@j2muw667Our bishop requested it, but several churches can’t be bothered to pray the 17 second prayer.

Matthew 7:13-14

You mentioned barron, a real turn off. His name was the last word… I left.😢 He needs to be converted to Catholicism ❤
