Fr. Alar! This talk was SO WELL DONE!! 👏🏽👏🏽 I am someone with same sex attraction who left the Catholic Church as a teenager to live fully in the LGBT movement for 10 years. 4 years ago I returned to the Catholic Church and now live out chastity as a dedicated single person. You left me very inspired at the end to continue carrying my cross. I almost cried, your words were so good! Thank you and God bless you Father Alar!!
Wow Tyler, God bless you my friend! You are a living example of a true disciple! God is giving you a special Mission and you have accepted! I admire you tremendously
Father Chris, your lecture from the Word of God is truly inspirational and full of Glory! I thank and pray for you and all that are carrying the Cross. ❤
Thank you, Fr. Chris, for having the courage to speak out on this controversial issue of PRIDE. May St. Michael & St. Joseph Terror of Demons protect you in your ministry. God bless the Marians.
Let this be the example for every catholic priest in this nation! A true catholic priest that speaks the truth and does not follow any agenda but only the word of God much respect thank you Fr Chris.
"What's behind the Gay Pride Movement - love or sin?" Well, when I watched a video (during Pride Month) of them marching, carrying their rainbow flags and chanting, "We're here, we're queer and we're coming for your children" over and over again; it told me all I needed to know about them, their motives and their agenda...and it isn't good!
We live in very troubled times. I’m grateful to Fr Chris and our beloved Marians who are leading us on the path to our future heavenly home. God bless you!
What you saw was a very small minority of Gay people acting out of frustration for being marginalized by society, it's not a fair representation of the entire Gay community.
@@paullemire4739They are no longer marginalized and haven’t been for quite some time. Everything revolves around this movement now, even to the point of having to use whatever pronouns they may identify as. It’s ridiculous. They preach tolerance and inclusivity yet they are not tolerant or inclusive of anyone outside of their group.
Heavenly Father, thank you for your courageous Priest especially for Fr. Chris. Father protect him from the snares of the devil. Thank you Father for giving him the wisdom to speak out especially on this topic.🙏😇🕊️📿✝️🇺🇸
I have been waiting a long time for some priest to discuss this much needed subject! I feel empowered now to go out and spread the word! Thank you Fr. Chris, I pray you will continue to enlighten the world! JMJ
When I was a child I always wanted to be a victim soul; I never in a million years thought it would be this. Years ago I chose to accept my cross and carry it and offer it up. I embrace this cross for the salvation of other souls and my own sanctification. I realized being a victim soul like this is beautiful and I do rejoice in my cross. This cross along with the dark nights is extremely painful and difficult but with God’s grace I cooperate and offer it up.
Fr. Chris - this was an excellent summation of not only the societal activity of the pride movement, but moreover, a powerful talk on the virtue of Chastity. I am an active Catholic, male and I struggle with same sex attraction. I do not identify as a “gay man”, because I do not live a sexually active gay lifestyle - I practice chastity as a single man. It’s a heavy cross and It’s been with me since I was a child. As much as Ive had countless days in life where I could not make sense of why this came to me, my attention eventually turned from focusing on “why” and instead, turning my attention to understanding that it was a cross - a most generous cross - given to me by God. The section of your talk on redemptive suffering, hit me in the heart like an arrow. I will end with this - a very devout Catholic priest once said to me in the confessional, “This cross is your pathway to Heaven and you should continue to live as such.” This memory came to me when you spoke about redemptive suffering. I will continue to offer this cross to Jesus and Mary, for those that struggle with these same challenges. And I offer it today for you Father, that the Precious Blood of Jesus protect and guide you during these most difficult and diabolical times. God bless you, Fr. Chris 🙏🏽 +JMJ+
Wow Jose you left me speechless. God bless you! You are the exact person, the one in a thousand, that I have been praying the world needs more of. God bless you for accepting your cross and living it for Christ. Denying yourself for the glory of God and the salvation of souls shows you are the opposite of pride. God bless you my friend!
Hard to hear and know truth. My son is bisexual. It tears at my heart always. Everyone thinks I’m mad feeling this way. I know the truth. I love him dearly. I gave him to God. Nothing else I can do but pray and trust
For anyone struggling, remember… we are ALL struggling with sin. We are all struggling together. Our temptations and sins are not all the same but we all struggle with our temptations.
Fr. Chris! I am going to be praying for you more and more! You are going to need more protection! I’m so thankful to God that my prayers matter! May God bless you and all the Marians abundantly always!🙏🏻❤️✝️🕊( of course I will also continue to pray for the conversion of as many souls as humanly possible)
I love you Fr. Chris. I thank you for being a rarity amongst our catholic priests to speak truth loud and clear. I'm praying for you and the all Marian priests🙏🙏🙏.
Thank you Fr. Chris Alar for speaking the truth. I am from San Diego, CA. We are a small group praying outside St. John The Evangelist Catholic Church where homosexuals are welcomed and have a special mass every Sunday at 5:00 p.m. We have invited many, no one wants to join us, some have even deserted us. I hope your podcast wakes up a lot of christian catholics. We are a militant church we need to defend our creator, our faith and family. Will be praying for you and all the priests who stand up for the true faith.
I left the lgbxyz "community" after 30 years and came back to the church recently. I no longer needed "pride" to be my guide. We all know how that ends ❤
I work for the only Catholic school board here in Ontario (Toronto) that did not fly the flag this past June. We were raked over the coals by the media for not doing so. Parents were nearly arrested at school board meetings for protesting against flying the flag, how crazy to think they pay taxes and school board employee salaries and have no say towards their children's education. I am utterly disgusted. After 27 years of service I have never seen such divide amongst teachers, it is heart-breaking and soul crushing. Our union, has only served to add fuel to this demonic fire. It has pushed its members into a corner by borderline forcing us to place these stupid "safe spaces" pride flag stickers in our classrooms since our school board voted against flying the flag. Praise God, none of those stickers are up at my school. Our union president, basically threatened us that if we made any comments or "liked" any social media posts that do not align with the current woke ideology that we could stand to lose our jobs. Of course, this did not and does not apply to those members who agreed with the distorted and demonic woke ideologies, they have been encouraged to speak freely over social media. Fr. Chris what is happening in our Catholic schools up here in Toronto is nothing short of an abomination. It really is worse than anyone could ever imagine. I call it COVID 2.0 but even more dangerous because covid was about our health, this is about the precious souls of our future generation. I will never forget the day I was hired by my school board, my dad shook his head and said to me in his deep Italian accent "now you work for il diavolo and will be a slave until you retire", how right he has been about everything. I am so grateful that I only have 2.5 more years until I retire. There is nothing, I repeat nothing Catholic about our school boards anymore. They have been tainted by progressive garbage, DEI and now the gender nonsense. I work tirlessly, to ensure that my students are properly catechised (unlike what I experienced when I went to Catholic school). We begin our day with the Gospel, pray the Angelus at noon (genuflection included), we pray the rosary at least 3 times a week and focus heavily on the lives of the Saints and the importance of accessing the Sacraments. Once my students leave me to go on to high school they have a firm understanding of the truths of our beautiful Catholic faith. Phrases that are frequently repeated in my classroom are: "The Lord's mercy is greater than any sin but we must turn to Him in repetance through the sacrament of confession" and "Love the sinner, hate the sin" . Thank you so much Fr. Chris for boldly speaking the truth! Lord have mercy on us all.
The disturbing thing is that our bishops there are bowing down to Trudeau"s woke agenda. And that woke ideology is creeking into our catholic schools here in the states. Lord have mercy on us all.
I listen to your talks right before bedtime. No matter how disturbing the topics are. It gives me hope to hear the truth being spoken. It gives me courage to speak the truth. Because I know I'm not alone. Thank you Father Alar 🙏✝️😌
The whole pride movement is the weaponization of empathy. Using our good will against us. We all realize that being inclusive and tolerant are virtuous qualities but they can't be applied across the board if we serve the biblical God. It's causing massive divisiveness and that decisiveness is also by design.
How sad a time is this? That the few Priests who speak the true teachings of our church are at risk of being cancelled. God Bless Father Chris who knows he risks his own soul by not remaining silent in this diabolic world we are living in. 🙏🙏🙏
Nobody is being cancelled. I find it weird that priests are not married. I also find it appalling that the church does nothing to pedophile priests or pedophile evangelical preachers.
Plenty of priests have been removed from Ministry so that is being cancelplease see the Jenkins study from Penn State and the John Jay report. 85% of abuse happens in the home, 14% in public schools and extracurricular activities and 1% happens in religious institutions, of which the Catholic Church is in the bottom half. Granted, there should be zero and none is to be tolerated, but please know the facts. God bless.
Thank you dear Father Chris. This generation is blessed to have holy Priests like you , courageously teaching the truth. May God Bless and protect all Marian Priests.
Father Chris, thank you for all the research you continue to do in order to educate and protect us. Know that you, all the Marian priests, and the Marian Helpers are always in my prayers. ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤
Well done Father Chris! You thoroughly informed us about the Church’s teaching on this loaded topic in a loving, non threatening way and the conclusion was stunning. It’s an important reminder that we all have to pick up our crosses. God bless you. Offering prayers for you and your family, and I truly hope that all watched it and processed it with the same heart of love, and open mindedness with which you presented it. ❤️🤍❤️
Thank you so much Father for teaching the Truth. My late sibling struggled with same sex attraction but chose to live the teaching of the Catholic Church. She paid dearly for this at times with severe depression but living celibately was so important to her. However she often questioned why God made her that way so was so good for me to hear your explanation about that. It was so good to meet you in Missouri a few weeks ago! Really enjoyed your talk there. Thanks for coming out here.
I’m sorry for your loss of your dear sibling 😔. She was truly brave to follow Jesus in her spiritual walk, when I’m sure she got a lot of crap from the non-religious straight and the LGBT community. G-d never made her that way. Born That Way is a myth. She had a series of events in her life that arrested normal sexual development. But she showed herself to be bigger than her urges ❤️
True, many of us have been praying for exactly this. And I for one am hopeful that those prayers, now seem to be bearing fruit. "All it takes for evil to flourish, is for a few good people to do nothing". We need to make our voices heard.
Thank you Fr. for a beautiful talk! I have a celibate vocation and what I can say is that it's truly a beautiful vocation. I honestly can't see it as such a heavy cross or self-denial, I see it as a *gift.* And it's the most beautiful gift and blessing I could've ever wished for myself. I don't feel forced to live chastely and forego physical intimate relations, it's what I'm choosing. I actually don't even feel like I'm forgoing marriage, I'm only forgoing _earthly_ marriage, for I do have a bridegroom, and it's _the_ Bridegroom. I may not fully understand how it is to have same-sex attraction and struggle with it, although I'm close to someone with that inclination some I'm not entirely unfamiliar with it. I'm sharing my experience to show, that celibate life is possible and it can be absolutely fulfilling. I understand there's various vocations and we've all been given graces in a unique way, and I understand how I've been very blessed, and that for people with ssa it may not necessarily feel like a very free choice to give up that striving for intimate connection, but may indeed feel like a cross. Our crosses and blessings are indeee uniquely crafted. But I wanted to say, that the life of celibacy can be fruitful, fulfilling, and freeing. It let's you be lead by the Holy Spirit in different ways, in allows for a different levels of intimacy with God. Let Him satisfy your needs for that deep connection, in the way only He can, and 'you will never thirst again.' 🤍
Thank you, Father Chris! Part of your talk that deeply touched my heart is the reminder that we all have to embrace our daily crosses with humility and perseverance. I pray that God will continue to protect you and keep you safe. God bless you for your courage and boldness in speaking the truth! God bless all the Marians!
"Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness,who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter !" (Isaiah 5:20)
Welcome to the future. Science and reason gradually repleace religion. The traditions of the past give way to freedom. In the high tech labs of Earth are developed technologies that will create a new order of intelligence. Resistance is futile.
It takes a great and courageous priest to share this controversial topic to us. May God will always protect, guide and bless you. We are praying for you Fr. Chris🙏🙏🙏
This is just incredible. God Bless you a thousand times over. Thank you for being a voice for the Truth. I am one GI in the army of spiritual soldiers praying with you and for you. *JMJ*
Father Chris - you have explained everything perfectly. I just wonder how much our church would be strengthened if more priests spoke to their congregations the way you do. Some priests do - I find them on-line. Our "canceled priest" list is growing, sadly. Why? Because they spoke truth. Nothing at all to do with their sexual abuse. Quite the opposite. They preached truth, and their bishops 'canceled' them. It's so disheartening and sad. They will stand alone in front of Jesus and be held accountable. I do think Cardinal Burke said that. God Bless You Father.
We are in so much trouble. The devil is walking on this earth we must pray to Saint Michael to help us fight him. God bless you, father, Chris, and all the bishops and other priests that are trying to keep us morally safe.😇
Thank you for this wonderful talk, Father Alar! You are a blessing to all of us Catholics and other Christians around the world. Please continue to evangelize so we will be able to strengthen our faith. God bless you always!! 🙏🙏
Cool. But what about addressing the years and years if cover up from the catholic church from child abuse and paedophilia from priets. Was there any back lash when that can of worms opened up? Just asking
That’s a different thing. Also there’s is bad people in every organization. Doesn’t mean you should give up on it. There are strict rules now not to let in gay men in the seminaries. Also just because priests are gay that there are going to be molestors. Those who did molest were mentally ill and abused their power.
@@aaron0415321583 Typical deflection, but just to be fair, reported cases of child abuse from the Church is 3%, while reported child abuse cases from public schools is 9%. And I would say the years and years of abuse from public schools is finally in the spotlight, while abuse from priests have been known for quite some time and continues to be dealt with today.
Thank you Father Chris for speaking out and teaching us all in our faith and our morals. Thank you for your courage. God bless you for all you do. The lgbtq/ pride movement and society is so frightening as they are coming after our poor innocent children. Our world has turned so far from our God. And our congress is allowing this movement to gain legal standing. Dear God please help us. Have mercy on us 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Father Chris is a bright light piercing the darkness. He always gives us hope. I agree, our government is virtually useless in protecting the helpless children. It was gratifying to note that 4000 were watching live today.
Praises and Glory be to Almighty God for these unenlightenedLGBTQ brothers and sisters in Christ..praying hard for them too Fr. Chris Alar..☦️🛐Phillippines
Thank you For. Cris for your e endless efforts to covert and convince wrong doers to come back to the faith. Please pray for my children especially Nachongo to heal her back which has pains everyday. Veronica Namonga
🙏 Praying for you Father Alar. You are such a good teacher! And corageous! That teaching will cause some bad reactions, perhaps even retribution. But with our prayers, I believe you will overcome all. Your faith in Christ is mighty. Thank you so for this important teaching. God bless you! 🕊️💟✝️🛐🙏
Sometimes we look around at our world and see the upside down values in things we thought we understood like family life and marriage. This talk was Soo helpful to hear church teaching and know what our attitudes towards all this chosen differences should be. Thank you father Chris.
Dear Fr. Alar, you are an incredible, dedicated priest. We are so grateful that you speak the truth in all things and defend our true, one Holy Catholic Apostolic Faith . We are praying for you always. God bless you and bestow upon you abundant, gifts, graces, virtues and blessings. Thank you for all you do protecting the faith and enlightening us. You are a true soldier of Christ and a blessing to the world.
My God and my all Thank you for listening to our prayers to strengthen Our Priests your devoted and faithful servants dedicated to serve you here on earth to keep spitting the truth according to your Words and commandments. Very special BLESSINGS JESUS TO YOUR SON Father Chris Alar!!!
@@tanyac.9005 May He extend this favor to all his brothers around him and others outside of the Divine Mercy Shrine. Expose what is false and denounce vehemently what is contradictory to the Words of God. Deuteronomy 13:3 Mathew 7:15 1 John 4:1-2 Jeremiah 14:14 Acts 13:6; 20:28-30 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 Jeremiah 23:21; 29:31 And the list long. Let’s pray to God that all clergy from the hierarchy ti the seminarians read these sacred words that would help them to think twice before taking an arbitrary decision against humanity which is mercilessly punishable by God.
Thank you Fr. Chris for this detailed explanation on a sensitive matter. We need to really pray that all their hearts may experience God’s love and mercy.
So in other words, God's love and mercy can only be experienced by a Select few. I think that Fr. Chris needs to experience a little more of God's mercy, and leave the judging to God Himself!
I read this all with a heavy heart. I have been blessed with a lesbian and transgender child. I am grateful that my dear Jesus reminds me daily that the greatest commandment is to love. I pray for you Father Chris and all Catholics that our hearts are open to the suffering and burden of others. I open my heart to the gifts my dear Jesus bestowed on me and only love will be welcomed and is the greatest weapon against the evil one
You’ve been blessed with two children I pray that both of your children will learn and accept the truth and will do God’s will for their eternal salvation. I pray for you as well.
Praying for the truth and all the MIC priest and family! Please pray for the protection of all the children in the world and for my two daughters who will have to grow up and fight for the truth in these times.
I've lived with same sex attraction for 2 decades dwelling in a debauchery and sin, denying Lord and His Mercy viciously. And yet Jesus has welcomed me in His Church for the sake of the salvation of my poor soul. Same sex attraction is still there, struggle is still there, but it's nothing comparing to His Love.
More blessings and prayers for your generosity and untiring spirit, Fr. Chris. My heartfelt gratitude knows no end. May everyone who hear your enlightening and encouraging message help themselves and take immediate action to live free from the bondage they are in and embrace the truth and teachings of the Catholic Church. You have our support in prayers and sacrifices to take the first step, move forward and that you may enjoy true freedom as children of God. God bless and prayers for you Fr. Chris, Bros Ken and Mark, MIC CONGREGATION, Marian family, the Catholic Church, conversion of sinners and salvation of all souls living and deceased. May peace,love and harmony reign in the world.
