The Entire Mass is from Scripture! 

The Universal Church! We really are one family. I think that is wonderful.

My family and I lived in Italy for four years and often went to the Italian church down the street. We could follow along every step of the way even though we did not speak Italian.

Indeed! that is one of the beauty of our Universal Church. i also attend Korean Mass ( as a Filipino) here in South Korea, sometimes TLM. and i will always know what is going on. Such a beautiful gift ❤

@winnienagel yes you are absolutely right... same readings across the world.

@@sharoonjames7106 I love that.

I also recommend Father Mike Schmitz videos from Ascension Presents, he's really down to earth at explaining the Catholic faith and every day life, and also Bishop Robert Barron, he is very smart, and he is really good at explaining history, philosophy, and theology if you're looking for a more academic understanding of the Catholic faith.

@@Eserr7856 Oh thank you very much for the recommendation! I like being instructed. Actually, recently, I was searching books that talks about the bible, but as you say, to be down to earth but I didn't find it, these priests are very intellectual. Thanks ☺️

@@Eserr7856 sorry for my english, my native language is spanish 😅

​@@Readyuvyour English is very good.

Father Chad Ripperger gets very intellectual also, and father Chris Alar is another favorite!

I remember reading through Malachi first time a while ago, getting to that part and being like: I’ve heard this before

@@killianmiller6107 the Early Church Fathers agreed that this passage is about the Eucharist

Albeit only in EP3.

In spite of the difficulties you may experience, especially temptations, always remember that He is full of mercy (cf. Lamentations 3:22-23, Proverbs 28:13, Hebrews 4:15-16) and that He who will live in you (by baptism) is greater than He who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Throughout the world we are praying fot the catechumens like yourself at Holy Mass and at home

Me too brother, I am 18 and currently converting! Good luck and God bless you✝️🇻🇦

There are quite a lot of footnotes in the catechism, it’s a great resource

My guess is that this person was a fundamentalist, rather than a typical evangelical. Most of us now realize that many within the Catholic Church have as real and vital relationship with Jesus Christ as the best of us.

@@vincewarde right. After doing that research it became clear that he was a fundamentalist, yet he also chooses to take certain scripture and interpret them in a way that’s not fundamentalist

@@christianlamb3911 Please remember that Billy Graham invited Catholic Churches to participate in his crusades, in fact I remember one time when a Catholic Church hosted the training sessions. CS Lewis, in Mere Christianity, stated that he didn't care what kind of Christian they became, as long as they came to faith in Christ. I have frequently said that it would be completely appropriate to label Father Casey as an evangelical. There is a core of Christian belief that we call agree upon, those who believe, trust in Christ and repent are saved and part of the body of Christ. Even the Catholic Church agrees with this, holding that we Protestant/evangelicals are imperfectly joined to the Catholic Church. Let us first and foremost share the Gospel with a lost world, rather than moving sheep between farms!

The Catholic Church compiled the Holy Bible that your evangelical "friend" who challenged you is divinely privileged and blessed by God to read, believe and live. The Catechism strictly obeys these sacred truths of the Bible and teaches them to the Faithful Catholic. I would pray, and you and everyone else that he would see the error of his way, repent and embrace the True Church of Jesus Christ, Catholic Church. Every verse from Sacred Scripture is contained in the Mass, hopefully he comes to embrace this as Jesus's divine gift to us, a gift of his salvation for us.

Don’t waste your time. BTW just for the record, Yeshua didn’t want to start a religion, He just wanted to teach the Way of Righteousness. I thing more, nothing less. 🙏

And exactly where is the proof that you aren’t worthy. That’s quite a slap in Gods’ face. God only creates perfection, otherwise God wouldn’t be God. It’s man’s persistent blatant blind ignorance that creates unworthiness, sin, death, war, fear. God doesn’t make that nonsense. We need to wake up. 🙏

Where did you find that list? I would like to keep it handy and add the notes to the margins of my study Bible.

oh yeahhhhh

Yeah, his list is far from complete. I guess that he wanted to keep the video short.

But so few will be called.

You ought experience Eastern Orthodox... The short mass is 3 hours long; it is the same each week and only liturgy, with the priest singing many parts. Beautiful

@@russellmiles2861 Beautiful? I'm sure it is - but it wouldn't be if I had to do the singing 😁😁

Apologies for being trite but I’m sure if I polled your congregation I’d walk away with the same impression.

@@vincewarde I imagine such is a prerequisite with Orthodox communions.

@@FimiliarGalaxy9 You would - my wife was my go to worship leader.....

Good one there, good one 😂

That mass that originates from quantum interactions.... also originates from the word of God

Lol

I’m both a physicist and a practicing Catholic; that’s funny!

@@johnflorio3576 And it's good, something you can say now, too.

Justin Martyr on eucharist and mass, First apology 150 to 160 AD CHAPTER LXVI -- OF THE EUCHARIST. And this food is called among us Eukaristia [the Eucharist], of which no one is allowed to partake but the man who believes that the things which we teach are true, and who has been washed with the washing that is for the remission of sins, and unto regeneration, and who is so living as Christ has enjoined. For not as common bread and common drink do we receive these; but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Saviour, having been made flesh by the Word of God, had both flesh and blood for our salvation, so likewise have we been taught that the food which is blessed by the prayer of His word, and from which our blood and flesh by transmutation are nourished, is the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh. For the apostles, in the memoirs composed by them, which are called Gospels, have thus delivered unto us what was enjoined upon them; that Jesus took bread, and when He had given thanks, said, "This do ye in remembrance of Me, this is My body;" and that, after the same manner, having taken the cup and given thanks, He said, "This is My blood;" and gave it to them alone. Which the wicked devils have imitated in the mysteries of Mithras, commanding the same thing to be done. For, that bread and a cup of water are placed with certain incantations in the mystic rites of one who is being initiated, you either know or can learn. CHAPTER LXVII -- WEEKLY WORSHIP OF THE CHRISTIANS. And we afterwards continually remind each other of these things. And the wealthy among us help the needy; and we always keep together; and for all things wherewith we are supplied, we bless the Maker of all through His Son Jesus Christ, and through the Holy Ghost. And on the day called Sunday, all who live in cities or in the country gather together to one place, and the memoirs of the apostles or the writings of the prophets are read, as long as time permits; then, when the reader has ceased, the president verbally instructs, and exhorts to the imitation of these good things. Then we all rise together and pray, and, as we before said, when our prayer is ended, bread and wine and water are brought, and the president in like manner offers prayers and thanksgivings, according to his ability, and the people assent, saying Amen; and there is a distribution to each, and a participation of that over which thanks have been given, and to those who are absent a portion is sent by the deacons. And they who are well to do, and willing, give what each thinks fit; and what is collected is deposited with the president, who succours the orphans and widows and those who, through sickness or any other cause, are in want, and those who are in bonds and the strangers sojourning among us, and in a word takes care of all who are in need. But Sunday is the day on which we all hold our common assembly, because it is the first day on which God, having wrought a change in the darkness and matter, made the world; and Jesus Christ our Saviour on the same day rose from the dead. For He was crucified on the day before that of Saturn (Saturday); and on the day after that of Saturn, which is the day of the Sun, having appeared to His apostles and disciples, He taught them these things, which we have submitted to you also for your consideration.

​@@enderwiggen3638I like that you included the timeline of the First Apology's composition. I've seen a lot of Protestants wholly ignore such quotes from the Church Fathers because they assume that they come from the post-Nicene era (after 325 AD, which is the subject of several conflicting conspiracy theories), when in fact there is a demonstrable continuity of belief between the ante-Nicene fathers (before 325 AD, such as Ignatius of Antioch, Cyprian of Carthage, Justin Martyr) and post-Nicene fathers (such as St. John Chrysostom, St. Gregory Nazianzen, St. Aphraates)

Fra Casey can you make a video on St. Joseph and I would be happy to provide you the themes.

I know first we had to learn not to say "and with your spirit", now we're going back to that and have to change again. But I still like "and with your spirit" better, even though I still slip up once in awhile.

@harper626 it isn't necessarily ceremonial but are gestures of reverence. You would notice whenever the congregation is asked to stand it is a call to intimate prayer or to listen to the words spoken in the Gospel. They will kneel when in the presence of Jesus in the Eucharist during Consecration and while being moved to and from the tabernacle, out of reverence to the True Presence. A little hokey pokey is fine if a Spirit filled song comes up and you're inclined😂

I know quite a lot of non-Catholics can't get their heads around the matter of transubstantiation. I simply refer to Jesus' own words when taking up the bread he said "This is my body" Not "This bread represents my body" As for "the bread of life", Well, Jesus also said "Unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you shall not have life within you"

@@Mike-li5yqThat's all good but they will swear blind it does not say what it clearly does say. You could also point out than in the first Passover (and the remembrance of it) (Exodus 12 and 13) You MUST EAT the Lamb! Followed by Malichi 1:10-12 where a pure sacrifice will be offered, John the Baptist greeting Jesus for the first time saying "Behold the Lamb of God and what seems clear from Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:16-21 and 1 Corinthians 11:27-30

Especially the opening Prayers at the Foot of the Altar ("Judica me, Deus..."), which is Psalm 43.

@tchristianphoto That, too! I love it!
