Bishop Strickland on Gay Marriage and Fr James Martin 

Well, the reality is that you started at 53. That's past sexual prime and easier. Although I am starting to have past 50 health-related issues, I don't think I ever want my youth back if I had to relive the difficulties rising from overwhelming sexual urges.

@@thomasc9036 🌹Sorry to hear this, Thomas. Praying for you!🙏 🌹May God bless you, and I wish you the Happiest New Year ever!🙏 🌹Eternal Father, for the sake of His sorrowful Passion, please have mercy on Thomas, Matt, Bishop Strickland, everyone in this channel, and on the whole world!🙏

Im 22 and I’m 3 months clean from pornography so far. Very hard

@CroationGambler, keep on truckin', and keep getting back on the train if you fall off. Keep fighting. It will get better. I haven't fought this particular battle, but so many of the men I love have.

@@croatiangambler8059 keep at it. Difficult for many of us. It’s Everywhere we turn in society

Let it be known to all: Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit! Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry. Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples! These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father! There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you! They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God... Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask: "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen." Revelation 22:8-9 KJV 8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. 9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God. Acts 2:38 KJV 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Luke 11:13 KJV 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? John 14:21-24 KJV 21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.* 22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.* 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.* 3 John 1:11 KJV 11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. *He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.* 1 John 3:6-10 KJV 6 *Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.* 7 Little children, let no man deceive you: *he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.* 8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. 9 *Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.* 10 *In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,* neither he that loveth not his brother.

Wow, that’s not common. Praise God

Awesome to hear. May God continue to bless you.

What planet are you both from? Just kidding. I don't know how you managed that.

@@kermierogers7876 why not? i'm a 40-something never-married man who's also a virgin and completely porn-free as well. i have strong sexual urges just like any other heterosexual man but i am able to control my impulses because i have discipline. why don't we stop pushing the falsehood that people cannot control themselves?

The Catholic church protects sexual perverts that prey on innocent children. This goes completely opposite the teachings of Jesus Christ. I believe the Catholic church is not a Christian Church, but only 'Catholic' church. People that follow the teachings of Jesus Christ should not attend such a church. It is more for perverts who want access to innocent children.

Aye, 100%

A good sheep. Your welcome

the pope is trying to get him to resign

Well said

I've been hearing a lot of good things about the Courage program. It's Catholic, but many bishops pretend that it doesn't exist. Same sex attracted people can support each other in friendship as they pursue a chaste life.

God bless you and keep you, sister. May the healing continue. The Lord will raise you up on eagles’ wings.

Do you support the transgender movement and transgenders. Do you agree that transgenders should be allowed into classrooms to tell elementary school children about their perverted lifestyle and to counsel elementary school children *WHO MAY BE CONFUSED* about whether they are a girl or a boy?

@@dunexapa1016 I don't know what this individual's answer to your question would be, but there are many homosexual and gender confused people who believe that grooming children is wrong, and who are speaking out against it. We all struggle with sin in some form, and the struggle is real, but bringing kids into it is straight from the pits of Hell.

@@greyhoundmama2062 When you say 'gender confused people' you are talking about a group of people that are having a delusional experience. They are uncertain if they are male or female or think *IN THEIR MIND* they are male and try to make their female body conform to this *MENTAL IMAGE* and vice versa for the person that thinks *IN THEIR MIND* they are female and also try to make their physical male body conform to this *MENTAL IMAGE* . These person's entire mental energy and life energy seems to be consumed with this body alteration and that is just about the sum total of what they consider to be their worth. A rather pathetic state of affairs.

Few in the pulpit, pastor or priest, would ever use the word “disordered” and that’s exactly what sexuality is apart from Gods design and prescription is for sex. We’ve broken away from Christian/biblical ideas about sex, gender, marriage and family. Here we are in 2023 unhappy as ever, we lost as ever, but we sure have a our pride. 🏳‍🌈

@@TheSaintFrenzy I think you are spot on with your comment. It's too bad that the word "disordered" carries such negative weight in our culture today. It is very easy to explain that disordered describes an action which is not order toward God, our highest good (whether or not one recognizes Him as such), so it is therefore DISORDERED. If people take exception to that, there is nothing more that can be done. I use this language in my homilies often. I get emails from the usual suspects, but the message is thought-provoking for the majority.

💘🙏💘

You need The Almighty and Christ much more than you need more Stricklands

AMEN!!!!

Amen. We really do.

@@Sarah-zg5qs Amen. But we still need more people like Bishop Strickland who follow Christs way and not the World’s. There was a saint whom I forget her name, but she was a nun who was tested with certain sins such as anger towards another in her convent or jealousy, whenever tested with that sin, she always increased her behaviour in the opposing grace. Such as If she felt angry towards another nun, she would try to be extra nice to her instead. That is something I try to emulate. Even though it is cot directly stated, ( or maybe is)it is implied by Christ and his disciples in written documents and stories and are good role models in following Christ. People throughout history have done things through kindness and bravery and so forth and have gone through circumstances similar to us in our lives, but have done something extraordinary to follow Christ and we should emulate that. Such is the story of the Saints. All of which was inspired by Christ.

But he places the GOP and Trump above the Church. He only supports the teachings that can be considered conservative, or do you think it's a coincidence that he cast numerous mothers into a fiery pit because he doesn't like their party affiliation? He does not love any Democrats. He's full of blind hatred. Don't believe me? Tell him you voted for Biden in 2020 because you saw Trump admit to a room full of evangelical Protestants that he's never asked God for forgiveness.

He is controversial and anyone who goes against the papacy needs to be removed or disciplined. I hope the Vatican does something about him and Taylor Marshall.

@@Maryismymom2 you got your wish!!!

These days are hard for the faithful. I do think Christ had compassion. Reaching out to the sinners. Not judging them. But yet not condoning their sin. The church can do this. More than today. Amen

@@Thomas-oc2ln We all do. Particularly disgraced bishops.

Absolutely. Bishop Strickland is less persuasive because he doesn't tackle this basic point first. As a result, too much of this sounds like assertion without reasoning. A diisappointment.

Disordered doesn’t just apply to sexual sin, it also applies to greed, self indulgence ( shopping, eating) despair etc.

@@basil5641 good point!

Does it apply to adultery, like with Trump?

Always praying for our bishops, priests, and religious. Siempre orando. They devil will seek to attack them even more so that the sheep will be scandalized and scattered. 🙏 Viva nuestro Santísimo Dios!

@@josea0121 Y que tenga Dios misericordia en nosotros siempre.

We do but they have to pray too.

And yet, Bishop Strickland is uncharitable towards Democrats as a whole. How many mothers did he claim are going to hell? How many mothers did he cast into a fiery pit simply because they don't vote Republican? And whether you like it or not, the Democrats and Republicans are both corrupt. Trump didn't change that. He exacerbated the problem.

Indeed. The word “gay” once was synonymous with libertine sexuality. Jack Kennedy seems to have confined his lust to women, although homosexuals like Gore Vidal seems to have lusted after him, but “gay” fits him as well.

Radio station EWTN has the Bishop Strickland hour at 7am ET

Thank you Vito, please continue to pray for bishop Strickland, he is suffering.

from Blessed Mother's message to Pedro Regis on 11/7/2023: "Dear children, you are heading towards a future of great spiritual confusion. Those who love and defend the truth will be persecuted and thrown out. The enemies will unite and revenge will come from the throne. I suffer because of what is coming for the righteous. Do not be discouraged. My Jesus is with you. Fearlessly proclaim the Gospel of my Jesus and the teachings of the TRUE MAGISTERIUM OF HIS CHURCH. The quagmire of false doctrines will spread, but the truth will win. God’s Victory will come for His Church. Do not retreat! The silence of the righteous strengthens the enemies of God. Go forward along the path that I have shown you! Do not depart from prayer and the Eucharist. This is the message that I give you today in the name of the Most Holy Trinity."

I know it will be hard to swallow,but this man,is telling us what was preached to me,as a young Catholic boy,I am 75,born in 1948,This is the true teaching of the Catholic faith!There is to much liberalism in the church,and way to much in society!We all need more discipline,in our faith and in our life’s!

Thank God for Bishop Strickland!💘 But Archbishop Salvatore Joseph Cordileone is 'lion-hearted' too!!! 💘💘🔥💘💘

@@zionlion4445 Yes, he sure is!

On the Commandment, 'You Shall Not Fornicate (Deut 5:18),' and Sexual Satisfaction, Our Lord says (excerpts from Maria Valtorta's Poem of Man-God, Vol. 1, pp.665-667): "Do not fornicate! Oh, tell Me, especially you men. Which of you has not tasted this bread made with ashes and excrement, which is Sexual Satisfaction? And is lust only what carries you for one hour between the arms of a prostitute? Is lust not also the desecrated union with your wife; desecrated because it is a ratified vice as it is reciprocal sensual satisfaction, which, however, evades its consequences? Marriage means procreation and its act MEANS and MUST be fecundation. Otherwise it is immoral. You MUST not make a brothel of your nuptial beds, and that is what they become if they are soiled by lust and are not consecrated by maternity. The earth does not reject the seed. It receives it and makes a plant of it. The seed does not escape from the furrow after being laid there. But it takes root at once and it strives to grow and bear fruit, that is the vegetable creature born of the union between soil and seed. Man is the seed, woman is the soil, and the fruit is the son. It is sinful to refuse to bear fruit and scatter strength in vain. It is PROSTITUTION performed on the nuptial bed, and, in no way differs from the other prostitution. On the contrary, it is aggravated by disobedience to the command that says; "Be one flesh and multiply by bearing children (Gen 1:28, 2:24)." Therefore, women, deliberately barren, legal and honest wives in the eyes of the world, but not in the eyes of God; you can see that you may be considered prostitutes, and you fornicate just the same, even if only with your husbands, because you do not seek maternity, but, too often, you are only after the pleasure. Do you not consider that Pleasure is a Poison that contaminates every mouth that tastes it? It burns with fire that seems to satisfy, instead it falls out of the fireplace and devours, more and more insatiable, leaving a sour taste of ash on the tongue as well as disgust, nausea and contempt of both oneself and the partner in pleasure, because when a conscience revives, and it does revive between two hearts, one can but feel such contempt of oneself, being lowered below the level of beasts. A great deal of the carnal actions of men are fornications. And I do not take into consideration the inconceivable obsessive union which Leviticus condemns; "Man, you must not lie with a man as with a woman, and you must not lie with any animal (Lev 18:22-23)." But after mentioning the Duty of Husband and Wife in Marriage, which is no longer holy when it becomes barren through malice, I am going to speak of the true and proper fornication between man and woman performed out of reciprocal vice or for compensation in money or gifts. The human body is a magnificent temple that contains an altar. God should be on the altar. But God is not where there is corruption. Therefore impure body has a desecrated altar without God. Like a drunken person, who wallows in ire and in the regurgitations of his own drunkenness, man lowers himself in the brutality of fornication and becomes worse than the most impure worm and beast. Tell Me, if among you, there is anyone who has perverted himself, which benefit did you gain? Take your hearts in your hands, examine them, question them, listen to them, note their wounds, their pangs, and then tell Me: was the fruit so sweet as to deserve such pain to a heart that was born pure and that you have compelled to live in impure body, and to beat to give life, and heat to lust, and to be worn out by vice? Tell Me: are you so perverted that you do not sob secretly, hearing the voice of a child calling, 'mummy', or thinking of your mothers, you, woman of pleasure, who have run away from home or have been driven out of them, so that the rotten fruit may not contaminate with its oozing rottenness the other good ones? Thinking of your mothers, who probably died broken-hearted, having to say, 'I gave birth to disgrace'? But above all, are you not terrified of the Just Judge, Who created you and is waiting for you to ask you, 'what have you done of yourself?' Did I, perhaps, give you life for that? How dare you come to My Presence, you, nest swarming with worms and putrefaction? You have had everything of what was your god: Pleasure. Go to the place of eternal malediction!"

💘💘🙏💘💘

AMEN!

Good point. We're all disordered sexually... Complex because we are living in a sexually sick time. Nice to have purity as a goal.

If sexual obsession and sexual sins are disorders of any kind should they be treated or are prayers enough to treat those disorders.

Tell Me: are you so perverted that you do not sob secretly, hearing the voice of a child calling, 'mummy', or thinking of your mothers, you, woman of pleasure, who have run away from home or have been driven out of them, so that the rotten fruit may not contaminate with its oozing rottenness the other good ones? Thinking of your mothers, who probably died broken-hearted, having to say, 'I gave birth to disgrace'? But above all, are you not terrified of the Just Judge, Who created you and is waiting for you to ask you, 'what have you done of yourself?' Did I, perhaps, give you life for that? How dare you come to My Presence, you, nest swarming with worms and putrefaction? You have had everything of what was your god: Pleasure. Go to the place of eternal malediction!"

He is so stuck in a rut. Not a modern thinker. Christ would not want his church to evolve as time does itself.

I've started to read a Catholic Catechism, but it's not easy to read, like a book is... I don't know anything about this Priest... Thank you for sharing.💘🙏💘

@@zionlion4445 Father Mike Schmitz also did the Bible in a Year a couple of years ago. It was the #1 podcast for quite some time. He is a wonderful priest in my home state of Minnesota and I got to attend a Mass of his at the U of M Duluth where he is assigned at the Newman Center.

@@zionlion4445 if you look up Ascension Press. You will see Father Mikes podcast of Bible in a year and the catechism. It’s awesome because he explains them very well.

@@julieelizabeth4856 Thank you, Julie, I remember watching an interview that Megyn Kelly had with him recently. I know that he has a You Tube channel, but I've been busy with Fr. Mark's, Bishop Barron's, John Henry-Westen's show, and lately, this channel... Praying that Matt reaches 300K soon! 💘💘💘🙏💘💘💘

@@MagnumLapua338 Thank you so much for sharing, Lapua! I wish you the Happiest New Year ever! 💘🙏💘

You have a heavy cross to bear. Blessings

It’s an abomination… ask god for forgiveness and stop that lifestyle

If you're Gay and Catholic, leave the Roman Church and become Episcopalian or Anglican or Old Catholic or even Lutheran. Being gay isn't a disorder nor a sin, homophobia is satanic.

It's true! There should be more resources for those who are struggling. Retreats or more celibate lay vocations would be helpful. I think a lot of people are uncomfortable acknowledging that some people, such as yourself, have such a heavy cross to bear. In modern Catholicism, we are sometimes way too comfortable. We think that just the fact that we don't eat meat on Friday is too hard so we only do it in Lent now, and so people are hiding from the difficult sacrifices that the faith demands. Sacrifices like SSA people having to live a totally celibate life.

On the Commandment, 'You Shall Not Fornicate (Deut 5:18),' and Sexual Satisfaction, Our Lord says (excerpts from Maria Valtorta's Poem of Man-God, Vol. 1, pp.665-667): "Do not fornicate! Oh, tell Me, especially you men. Which of you has not tasted this bread made with ashes and excrement, which is Sexual Satisfaction? And is lust only what carries you for one hour between the arms of a prostitute? Is lust not also the desecrated union with your wife; desecrated because it is a ratified vice as it is reciprocal sensual satisfaction, which, however, evades its consequences? Marriage means procreation and its act MEANS and MUST be fecundation. Otherwise it is immoral. You MUST not make a brothel of your nuptial beds, and that is what they become if they are soiled by lust and are not consecrated by maternity. The earth does not reject the seed. It receives it and makes a plant of it. The seed does not escape from the furrow after being laid there. But it takes root at once and it strives to grow and bear fruit, that is the vegetable creature born of the union between soil and seed. Man is the seed, woman is the soil, and the fruit is the son. It is sinful to refuse to bear fruit and scatter strength in vain. It is PROSTITUTION performed on the nuptial bed, and, in no way differs from the other prostitution. On the contrary, it is aggravated by disobedience to the command that says; "Be one flesh and multiply by bearing children (Gen 1:28, 2:24)." Therefore, women, deliberately barren, legal and honest wives in the eyes of the world, but not in the eyes of God; you can see that you may be considered prostitutes, and you fornicate just the same, even if only with your husbands, because you do not seek maternity, but, too often, you are only after the pleasure. Do you not consider that Pleasure is a Poison that contaminates every mouth that tastes it? It burns with fire that seems to satisfy, instead it falls out of the fireplace and devours, more and more insatiable, leaving a sour taste of ash on the tongue as well as disgust, nausea and contempt of both oneself and the partner in pleasure, because when a conscience revives, and it does revive between two hearts, one can but feel such contempt of oneself, being lowered below the level of beasts. A great deal of the carnal actions of men are fornications. And I do not take into consideration the inconceivable obsessive union which Leviticus condemns; "Man, you must not lie with a man as with a woman, and you must not lie with any animal (Lev 18:22-23)." But after mentioning the Duty of Husband and Wife in Marriage, which is no longer holy when it becomes barren through malice, I am going to speak of the true and proper fornication between man and woman performed out of reciprocal vice or for compensation in money or gifts. The human body is a magnificent temple that contains an altar. God should be on the altar. But God is not where there is corruption. Therefore impure body has a desecrated altar without God. Like a drunken person, who wallows in ire and in the regurgitations of his own drunkenness, man lowers himself in the brutality of fornication and becomes worse than the most impure worm and beast. Tell Me, if among you, there is anyone who has perverted himself, which benefit did you gain? Take your hearts in your hands, examine them, question them, listen to them, note their wounds, their pangs, and then tell Me: was the fruit so sweet as to deserve such pain to a heart that was born pure and that you have compelled to live in impure body, and to beat to give life, and heat to lust, and to be worn out by vice? Tell Me: are you so perverted that you do not sob secretly, hearing the voice of a child calling, 'mummy', or thinking of your mothers, you, woman of pleasure, who have run away from home or have been driven out of them, so that the rotten fruit may not contaminate with its oozing rottenness the other good ones? Thinking of your mothers, who probably died broken-hearted, having to say, 'I gave birth to disgrace'? But above all, are you not terrified of the Just Judge, Who created you and is waiting for you to ask you, 'what have you done of yourself?' Did I, perhaps, give you life for that? How dare you come to My Presence, you, nest swarming with worms and putrefaction? You have had everything of what was your god: Pleasure. Go to the place of eternal malediction!"
