I am not of the catholic faith....but you do not have to be catholic to appreciate, enjoy, respect, and honor Bishop Fulton Sheen. God Bless You Bishop Sheen!!
I have lost so many people who I loved dearly, even my little dog. It's hurts so bad. Severe depression has set in. I can only feel numbness locked up in my house, alone for months. Sometimes I would dream, fantasize about being good, devoting my life to God. The guilt of turning on God was a constant burden. Last night I went to confession. It was a simple confession with just the necessary details. The priest was not told of the above details of my situation. The priest basically said, that I need to get out my house. That I need stop dreaming and start doing. He said no matter what, I had to darken the door of the church. He told me I'm not alone in my suffering and very convincingly told me how much Jesus loves me. I am still amazed by what the priest said. Last night, God spoke to me through that. My is faith renewed. I asked and received. Praised be God.
129jaystreet….being 80-young now I am like you in many ways. Lost a lot of family and friends who have gone on and most recently lost my beloved little Westie Brodie MacDuff a marvelous dog for 12 and ahalf years. But I don’t know what I would have done if I didn’t have Christ in my life. I go to Mass every day and my faith has saved me that I know God will let me see Brodie again over the 🌈 Rainbow Bridge. We will greet each other and walk with Jesus. While I’m still here May God send me another companion I prefer the 4 legged kind. I love Bishop Sheen used to watch him on TV many years ago. We miss his spirit and love for Christ. Pray the 📿 rosary faithfully. Happy Easter!
I am praying for you Ladies. My Mom is feeling the same way She even lost her Westie “McDuff”. Please pray for my mom Alice, and for those around you and who come across your path, maybe even like me and Mom, and the priest in the confessional. I think we should ask God, our Father, “what can I do for You?” As well. I took from bishop sheen that Christ knows exactly how we feel because he allowed himself to to suffer in the same way. Especially on this day of Good Friday 2000 years ago. Godbless you both and keep you. Kevin
@@TheJoyoftheFaith and makes perfect sense when surrounded by lukewarm people who only care about Easter because they get a free banquet for lunch and chocolate eggs
@@TheJoyoftheFaith indeed. Last year was my first as a faithful Catholic. Having been raised in a nominally Catholic family, I knew very little about Our Lord. I remember the clock hitting midnight and Easter Sunday starting and there were tears of joy and emotion in my face. I wish my family would feel the same one day.
In '64 I sent my allowance of $2.34 to Bishop Sheen for the Pagan Babies. (Older folks will remember Pagan Babies charities). He wrote such a lovely note back to me (which I still have). He told me the Recording Angel cherishes my gift and will write it in a heavenly book.
@@susangallen4548 Get outta town! Really. We’re all so scattered now that when I’ve occasionally asked if some Catholic knew about Pagan Babies..they always say Pagan what! So, your note is really cool
This sermon changed my whole attitude towards life at a time when I am mourning on the sudden demise of my beloved wife.God spoke to me through Bishop Sheen! How timely it is! Feel greatly relived!Praise be to God The Father Almighty! Greetings from Colombo Sri Lanka with love for all the people of good will!🙋😇👍🌹🌹🌹
Very sorry for the loss of your wife I know as a man as a husband it is difficult very difficult for men to deal with the loss of their wife because the wife really organizes the home she organizes our lives she heart of the home she gives a home a soul and a father and the children we seem to build our lives around her and that Home the family so I hope you’ve made your adjustments and you adjust to that it’ll always be difficult. I pray your children if you have any are helping you with your loss and I’ll be praying for you And my ministry, my family and I pray for people all the time and it seems to help somebody my neighbor is suffering right now, my other neighbor across the street he literally came home from work and his wife who was my dearest friend she was dead on the couch, came over on my stoop and tears he couldn’t speak. I went into the Home and there she was I had to deal with the police cause he couldn’t do anything he just crumbled as any man he had to move. He couldn’t even live in the house anymore so anyway, but he didn’t lean on God for help. God will take away and help us with our pain. It won’t go away, but it’ll help us adjust and that seems to be where you are and I’m so happy for you. She is a wonderful, intelligent man a great resource, for anybody of faith, but as a Christian, he has a wealth of information and really good guidance so another great place the Bible shepherds chapel is a great place to learn your Bible check them out start the book of Genesis you will be surprised at the truth of the word that I want any money from you, they will teach you the Bible chapter my chapter verse by verseanyway, we will pray for you and my family and God always love you as he does and we love you in the name of Jesus sincerely preacher, and Pastor Paul😊
I lost my brother in car wreck, then sister (suicide), then dad the same wk as my sister, then my son (suicide). So, I’ve learned a bit about heaven. For many years I’ve chanted an old, special word for God, HU. I found it in a book by Paul Twitchell, called “the spiritual notebook”. The HU changed my life. My dreams changed to a spiritual journey. I ask God to help in my recall of past lives, and to time travel, and to meet with/ loved ones in heaven, and for many years now I have. Death of the physical is so hard for those left behind, but for the person who’s moved on it is usually a true joy. HU will enhance your religion. It can bring freedom U never knew existed in the spiritual realms, while you’re still here. The powerful HU is on many RU-vid channels, and the one with the quotes is really good.. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
To think that this is what used to constitute prime time, award winning television. We are SO, SO steeped in so much sin, and most cannot even see it. What used to be common knowledge to all Catholics is now unknown to most of them. The Church is suffering Her Passion, and Christ is watching to see what role we each choose to take.
In his younger days he was Priest at a London parish church. There was a well known celebrity a music hall beauty with many lovers and plenty of all the good things. Yet she was almost suicidal with self-disgust. She came into Sheen's church and said she was a lapsed Catholic and just wanted to talk to him. She said "Just one thing, don't say a WORD about confession'. He was leaving and arranged to meet her the next day, walked her through the church to his office and then gently pushed her through the open door of a confessional. She confessed and confessed and confessed. She later became religious sister.
You don’t need to ask ANYONE to pray for you. You yourself can and should pray to Jesus. Saints or angels or the Virgin Mary do NOT stand between you and Christ. Jesus abolished once and for all any obstacle between us. That is Easter.
Words like this puts one back on the narrow road to salvation. God bless everyone on this Good Friday of Lent 2024! May God grant us all a correction of conscience.
"Wasted pain" what a word of wisdom! Our world is pushing away value of suffering, seeing it only as an evil, undeserved experience. Nobody wants to talk about suffering as a grace to become closer to Jesus, as a sacrifice for sins, as a way to help souls in the purgatory. Yes, as a nurse, I see a lot of wasted suffering.
Christ takes on our suffering - which is to be accepted because of His Crucifixion. I am depressed and my operated on foot is painful. Yet I'm still here. How did Christ repair the rift between God and humanity after Adam transgressed? He cruci-fixed it.
i agree so much and have been called a masochist because i expressed gratitude for suffering because it brings me in a position where i grow very close to God.
As a nurse I intercede for my patients and ask Jesus to use their suffering in union with His for their own soul and the souls of others. We are one Body in Christ. Intercession prayers are powerful!
As a young boy I would sit with my dear mother and listen to this wonderful man weekly she would always tell me that God and our Lord Jesus Christ is speaking to us thur him I never forget that awesome sentiment Amen 🙏
After 83 yrs of life it still brings sollice to hear the voice of his excellency Bishop Sheen even if it is only a recording but that is how deep he has touched me not only in my childhood but also an adult. God Bless him still.
I hope this is your first step to Catholicism. Nothing, absolutely nothing, will bring you happiness, as surely as this great offering to Jesus. May God Bless you on your journey to Jesus.
@@blindknitter Keith nestor's Channel a former Protestant Minister does it very well he does it so good there's nothing better than a converted Protestant to explain it. He actually is a reason why I returned and started going again a few years ago as I quit for 15 years
I remember watching him with my mom dad and siblings every week I was so intrigued and to this day I enjoy hearing his wisdom we need prayers for this world pray to Bishop Sheen
Bishop Sheen has been God's gift to us who enjoy listening to his talks. He was really a gifted personality, a person with deep faith who knew Christ. May you rest in peace.
Bishop Sheen masterfully takes us to Jesus Crucifixion and as we are there, it pierces you to your core. Thank you Lord for giving us Fulton J. Sheen who was instrumental in getting thousands of us to follow Jesus. Juanita Ortega
I'm not Catholic but Bishop Sheen was clearly a wise and holy man. His ability to speak to people in a common sense and logical way that is accessible to all people that care to listen and hear him place him among the great speakers of Christianity.
@@archangelliii2536 Sorry brother, I was born and bred Greek Orthodox. I married a Catholic women and never converted. My old dad used to say you never turn your back on family or your faith. I'll never convert but I'm not entirely convinced that you have to be any one faith to get into Heaven.
@@michaelgeorges5203 Sorry? Are you kidding me? Be sorry for YOU. For Starters your faith is false and is taking you to Hell, not Heaven! Then as our Lord clarly said, if you love your family more than HIM, then you're not worthy of Him and stop deluding yourself, there's only ONE faith and Church Jesus established and it ain't the Greek Orthodox! It is the one your spiritual ancestors broke away from in the year 1050, the Holy Catholic and Apostolic ROMAN Church.I hope you change your mind before your time is up...what are you waiting for??!!!
I feel so grateful to my dad who introduced me to Bishop Sheen in the early '70s. He gave me his book "Life of Christ". That book is a treasure worth reading. My father never got to hear or watch Bishop Sheen as these means were not available to us in Goa then. How happy my late dad would have been for this opportunity to hear him, as I am right now. May Bishop Sheen be canonized soon.
God Bless Bishop Sheen. A true saint of a man. Words of wisdom of such divine nature. We so need his words today. We all need to pray to restore our souls. Amen
@@TheJoyoftheFaith I have listened multiple times( and I mean multiple) to every talk Bishop Sheen gave that had heretofore been available on You Tube. I was surprised and really happy to see this new batch of talks! Means a lot !
"Jesus Remember me when you come into your Kingdom." Those were my last words to both my grandma and my dad 15 years later as they both laid on their death beds and I kissed their foreheads and touched them for the last time. REMEMBER ME! 😢
This preacher use to scare me to death as a child. But he became an acquired and loved presence. One of the last things Bishop Sheen said on public television was,"It's gonna get worse!"
I Remember Bishop Sheen saying, "Satan on the outside of Church looking in, but Satan will be on inside of Church looking out" God help us. Our Lord promised, though, SATAN WILL NOT PREVAIL AGAINST HIS CHURCH🙏🙏🙏🙏 Those of us left must remain faithful & pray for His Church & from conversion of all.
What a great speech❤️ I went to school with Bishop Sheen’s great niece, Anne Cunningham. St. Denis, Yonkers, NY. Although I’m no longer Catholic, I follow Christ in a little church that is 200 years old in NC, I worship Jesus not the church. My faith has gotten so much stronger through reading and studying God’s word. Love and blessings to all on this Holy Saturday and God bless Bishop Sheen🙏🏼🥰
I'm sorry that you are so far away from the Eucharist!! That's where Jesus truly presents. I know one will visit one's mother if one truly loves one's mother. Hope you will visit the Lord too
@@2girlsfur192 Don’t be sorry for that person …he or she is doing the work to get to know Jesus…as a Catholic, we don’t get much Bible study … and all Catholics know that.
I believe I adore I hope and I worship thee. I pray for those who do not believe who do not adore who do not hope and who do not worship thee. God bless.
Bishop Fulton Sheen passed not long before I was born. I find comfort in his voice. I find comfort in his words. As if I had known him like he was my own Parish Priest and Confessor. Thanks be to the Almighty that He in his wisdom and mercy sent us this man to eloquently and clearly speak His truth to us. I pray that the Bishop is resting in peace with the Lord in hope of the Resurrection. Thank you Bishop Sheen.
Wow! He knew his reward was around the corner I can tell. It's like he was preaching to himself as well as to the rest of us. St. Bishop Fulton Sheen pray for us. Amen.
I hope everyone who sees this shares it to their social media accounts! This is powerful and what we need to hear! I pray that Jesus enters your hearts and that you get a blessing from this!
Hello...Thank You for sharing the message from this wonderful Holy Man Bishop Fulton Sheen. Growing up in the 40-50s my mom, dad and me would watch Bishop Sheen on Sunday evenings. My dad and mom were Protestants but I always was drawn to the Catholic faith but as a family we would listen to his religious teachings and really enjoyed them. We need more religious people with these true strong feelings of belief in Our Lord. My 3 favorite religious people are Bishop Fulton Sheen, Mother Angelica, and Rev.Billy Graham sadly they've went to Heaven. God Bless and Thank You for sharing this precious message tonight on this Holy Day of Good Friday. Bye from Ohio🌹
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 🩸 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 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; 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.
When I think of Longinus, his failing eyesight restored when he pierced Christ's side with his spear, I'm reminded of a quote: "Forgiveness is the scent left behind by the violet on the heel that crushed it." A painfully beautiful thing.
@@deemcdaniel9150 Although the name Longinus is ascribed to Apocryphal texts, the account of the centurion who pierced Christ's side is found in the Gospel of John (19:33-34) and the Gospel of Matthew (27:45, 50-51, 54).
Forever grateful for his conviction, wisdom, and eloquence of faith. Regardless of where you are on in life’s journey, Bishop Sheen is a light that can always be followed to peace.
We need his prayers. I don't think he needs ours. He will be canonized in due time on earth but I believe he has already been canonized where it counts...in Heaven!
I got chills listening to this. Easter Sunday, 2024. I was too ill to attend Mass at my local parish, so I sought an online option...and found this. Reciting the Act of Contrition along with Venerable Fulton Sheen affected me deeply. He is the person I hope to meet in Heaven one day.
A great man with true courage and strong convictions…we need people like this in our churches, cities, schools and especially in the US. Congress!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Best lesson from my Mother to me at 5 or 6 years of age... I'm crying from a cut and she tells me try to bare your suffering and unite it to Jesus as he suffered on the cross for love of me. Never waste any suffering in your life... Offer it up to Jesus to save souls or to make up for Sins. It makes Jesus' pain less.
I'm now 80 years old and in my younger days living in Rochester,NY, I would watch Bishop Sheen every week and I was Baptist because he was such a dynamic speaker!
As it is written: Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. As it is written: John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
God Bless Bishop Sheen, I have been listening to him for years, since I was a child. He should have been Cononized a Saint years ago. It has been said that Francis put a stop to it. What does he know about Saints? He does not agree with Sheen's beliefs, and who is going to believe what Francis believes. make your choice. I believe Sheen not the critic. May Bishop Sheen become a Saint asap, maybe God can do it. God Bless us all.
A GREAT LEADER OF THE CHURCH WHO CAME TO CHURCH TO CARRY THE WORD OF GOD HONESTY TO CHURCH AND GOD AFTER MY ORTH OF THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT I WANT TO BRING BACK LEADERS LIKE HIM BACK TO OUR BEAUTIFUL CHURCH SO HELP US GOD
