Catholic Answers well done again! Nice, short video on the Origin of the Rosary. I have to get the book you mentioned, Champions of the Rosary by Donald Calloway.
@@brucewmclaughlin9072 I read all 73 books and it shows the Intercession of Saints in heaven and on earth. The rosary is meditation on the life of Jesus Christ.
@@brucewmclaughlin9072 In the Bible, 2 Thessalonians 2:15 says, "So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught-whether by word of mouth or by our letter". WORD OF MOUTH
@@bellottibellotti9185 No one is denying word of mouth and traditions in the early church , however we now have the scriptures in front of us and we also know just how vulnerable word of mouth content diminishes or changes over time. I will stick with the inerrant word of God.
Fun fact 1) The word Bead comes from the Old English verb bede* (Beh-duh), which means to ask for or to pray (think of rhe archaic "I bid thee...") 2) A few years ago archaeologists at Lindisfarne discovered a string of beads around the neck of a monk in an 8th Century Burial. The 12 beads were fashioned from salmon vertebrae and have been interpreted as prayer beads. 3) *St Bede was a near contemporary of of said monk, but lived at Jarrow monastery, not too far away. He wrote two tracts: -The Ecclesiastical History of the English People -On the Reckoning of Time The former is still in print and in the latter he sense checked classical Greek calculations of the circumference of the earth and dwscribed it as "round, not like a shield, but like a ball" St Bede is now entombed in Durham Cathedral and was made a Doctor of the Church for those works and his contribution to the dating of Easter. He also popularised the use of BC/AD reckoning. Love and peace to all my Roman Catholic Siblings in Christ, from a British Trad High Church Anglican.
St Cuthbert and St Bede are Catholic...not part of the government used abd abused state ecclesial community called Anglicanism. No thinking person should be an Anglican and Gavin Ashenden should be listened too and emulated. Chaplain to the Queen and ex "pseudo bishop" of the C of E as he describes himself. My own family left the C of E in the 1930's. It is far more British to be Catholic.
And that I have just finished Re-reading part one of Fr Calloway's monumental book "Champions of the Rosary". Go for this book to truly appreciate the gift that the Holy Rosary is. I am now understanding why Mother Mary called her name "Our Lady of the Rosary" at Fatima.
@@ji8044 that’s not what the Catholic Church means by meditation, sir. Go back with the catechism of the Catholic Church and then come back to me. Meditation is one of the forms of prayer in the Catholic Church. And it’s not the meditation that Buddhist do either
Yes. It is contemplative prayer. See, CCC 2724. "Contemplative prayer is the simple expression of the mystery of prayer. It is a gaze of faith fixed on Jesus, an attentiveness to the Word of God, a silent love. It achieves real union with the prayer of Christ to the extent that it makes us share in his mystery."
St Dominic was predestined to get the Rosary for millions of years, owing to the fact that he is receiving a rosary from Mary and St Francis is receiving the cord of holy poverty from the Infant Jesus in the miraculous image of Our Lady of Las Lejas in Columbia. The image looks like it was painted by a renaissance master, but is actually a natural rock formation with the image going 1 meter deep into the rock.
Want protection ? Ephesians 6:10-18 New Catholic Bible The Christian Warfare[a] 10 Put On the Armor of God. Finally, find your strength in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the armor of God so that you will be able to stand firm against the deceit of the devil. 12 For we are not struggling against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, the powers, and the cosmic rulers of this present darkness, and against the spirits of evil in the heavens. 13 Therefore, put on the armor of God, so that you will be able to hold fast on the evil day and to hold your ground with all your strength. 14 Stand firm, then, with the belt of truth fastened around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness clothing you, 15 and with your feet shod in zeal to proclaim the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances, hold in your hand the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation as well as the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 Be Vigilant in Prayer. In all of your prayers and entreaties, pray always in the Spirit. To that end, keep alert and always persevere in supplication for all the saints.
@@paulcapaccio9905 if U can hear the warning from elsewhere, why don't U hear the warning from the bible. The warning is direct from Jesus n no rubbish like praying the hail Mary 53 times
@dannyboy6598 I would rather pray the Hail Mary 53 times that point to the One and Only Jesus than pay any attention to the present 45,000 different Protestant Denominations.
Praying The Rosary is contemplating Jesus Christs life, each decade reflects different events. Comprised of verses Mt 6:9-13, Eph 3:21, Lk 1:28, 42-43 & Jm 5:16. Rosary Center online gives The Mysteries to reflect on while praying. Powerful weapon against evil, used in exorcisms & even more powerful when fasting!!! Invite the Angels & Saints to pray with you. God especially heeds their prayers. Pro15:29, Jm5:16 Catholics are citizens among the Saints in Gods household. Eph2:19-22

The Rosary and Liturgy of the Hours is two different things. They had a poor man Biveray. They say 150 psalms and say an Our Father after each psalm. But a lot of people couldn’t read and afford a book. So they gave them beads to keep track of each Our Father after the psalms was said. The Hail Mary was years later when the Marine Devotions started and the Rosary we have today was reformed by the Pope. Saint Dominic did not come up with the Rosary we have today. Mary gave him a set of prayers to give and say for the people. Nobody knows what those set of prayers are but I am guessing the The Lord’s Prayer and the Jesus Prayer 150 times.
The problem is how people gave up saying 150 Our Father to say 150 Hail Mary and then the Rosary ? I always fear this exchange Our Father -> Hail Mary is a deception.@@crazyfaith77
I've been praying the Rosary everyday for the last 6 months for my family and country. With praying the Rosary, which has caused the winning of battles, can turn our country around for the good.
Jesus is king ✝️....I'm retired at 48, went from Grass to Grace. This video here reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, honest wife, $35k biweekly and a good daughter full of love ❤️
I raised 75k and Christina Ann Tucker is to be thanked. I got my self my dream car 🚗 just last weekend, My journey with her started after my best friend came back from New York and saw me suffering in dept then told me about her and how to change my life through her. Christina A. Tucker is the kind of person one needs in his or her life! I got a home, a good wife, and a beautiful daughter. Note!:: this is not a promotion but me trying to make a point that no matter what happens, always have faith and keep living!!
I know that woman(Christina Ann Tucker) If you were born and raised in new York you'd know too, No doubt she is the one that helped you get where you are!!
@@alexandertorro when Protestants understand that the Hail Mary, is the Angelic Salutation, and Angels can only speak the word of God, then, the Hail Mary is actually the words of God the Father(the first part in any case, to be specific) then you realize how powerful of a prayer it really is, once Protestants understand that, they cease to protest.
@@wjm5972 U caths hv no idea what n how the apostles lived. None of them prayed the rosary n they are now in heaven. Is it so hard to understand this. If Mary will talk to U caths, she will say how angry n disappointed she is tht caths hv to hurt God by wasting time with something tht takes them further from God
Of course it does. That's why Jesus and the apostles never were to pray it or teach it. For that matter there is account of Mary herself praying it or teaching others to pray it. I find absolutely amazing that all these teachings that these apologists say existed even before Jesus, nobody thought to record any of them in the scriptures. Things such as the papacy, the assumption, immaculate conception, the perpetual virginity and the rosary being discussed here.
Binding and loosening authority of the church is in scripture. Where on earth you get to have to read everything in scripture to be true. If you answered It is not in scripture that came from martin luther you would be correct.
@@zacharyvandress1120 yes, the authority to bind and loose does come from scripture. But it doesn't belong to the roman catholic church. THE CHURCH in scripture IS NOT the church of scripture. Scripture does not mention a particular religion or denomination. Your church is the one who has labeled itself as THE CHURCH. When Christ returns, he is not coming for the catholic church, the Mormon church or the protestant church. The church in scripture is the BODY of believers. That is who Christ is coming for. If you read the scriptures instead of listening to Rome you might learn something. So no, not everything has to be in the bible if you are proposing that everything goes. That is why you can't disprove what the mormons, the Jehovah's and everybody else. Are you proposing that anybody can say what ver and that their doctrines etc are what everybody should believe. Those religions, like catholicism all say they received added revelation from God. So please disprove it for me. The Mormons say they got some golden tablets from God, disprove that for me. Keeping in mind what you said, that not everything has to be in the bible.
@rbnmnt3341 what do you think the early church was if not catholic. It was the only christian church until martin luther. You protestants make up your own history
@@zacharyvandress1120 the early church was the catholic or universal church. NOT the ROMAN Catholic church. Early but not during Christ. Ignatius didn't come up with the word catholic til about 120. The next problem you have is that there is NO BIBLICAL evidence that Jesus, Mary or any of the apostles EVER believed, taught or practiced ANYTHING ROMAN catholic. Nothing that the modern church curtly teaches. Jesus or peter never taught the rosary or prayed it. Jesus never said pray to make or that the way to himwas through his mother. In fact he said just the opposite. He said pray TO THE FATHER. Jesus sain " no man can come to me UNLESS THE FATHER who sent me draw him." Where does that say anything about Mary? Where is there any account of Peter presiding over a mass, teaching transubstantiation, saying that the way to Jesus is through Mary? When did Jesus or peter say that the church has sole authority to interpret scripture? When did Jesus or anyone, anywhere in scripture refer to peter as pope? Why did peter refer to himself as a pope? Peter calls himself a servant, an apostle of Christ, a fellow elder and a man. He called himself a man to Cornelius. Cornelius fell to the ground in front of peter. Peter then helped Cornelius up and told him get up, I am just a man. Are those the words of actions of a pope? There is nothing, absolutely NOTHING catholic about any of them. Mary either. When did she say pray to her? Or go through her to get to her Son? Your church just can't make them catholic. They are ignoring that part of history. They waited til they had all passed, claimed they were catholic and just made peter a pope. Your church also uses Matthew 16 to say that it somehow says roman catholic church, that peter is somehow a pope or that he is the rock that the church is built on. All lies.
Just feels weird cause it’s like Mary is made to be the focal point so much, like she’s the main character while God & Jesus are the supporting characters.
No, its the mysteries that are the focal point. Each mystery is also associated with a spiritual "fruit" like humility or obedience. So we meditate on the mystery, we ask Mary to pray for us (that we would develop the spiritual fruits in our lives).
With all due respect, your perspective is off the mark. To meditate on the mysteries of the rosary is to meditate on the life of Jesus from Mary's perspective. And don't forget that it is God who gave Mary her role in our salvation: "I will put enmity between you and the woman, between your seed and her seed."
Mary at Fatima told us to pray the Rosary. People are ignoring her directive and praying the Divine Mercy chaplet, Listen to your Mother like Jesus listened to his mother at the wedding in Cana. Only pray the the divine mercy after you have prayed all three mysteries in one day. Millions of LESS ROSARIES are being prayed beacuse of this error.
Countless saints and Popes have promoted the Rosary and Marian consecration. The battle of Lepanto was won through its recitation. At Fatima where a public miracle was witnessed by over 70,000 people, Our Lady told the children to pray the Rosary every day. She has said the same at every other apparition that has been deemed “worthy of belief”. It is beyond belief that a Catholic would say “as Catholics we don’t need to believe in the Rosary” or “we don’t need to say the Rosary”. Every single Catholic should have a devotion to Our Lady! She is Mother of the Church and our spiritual mother. May God forgive you for your words of detraction which I can only think serve to foster and promote the ill guided idea that we must downplay everything that the Protestants object to. We know why they object! Because she crushes the head of the serpent. Disappointed in you.

@@Jesus3ITrustinThee u are absolutely right about this judge n you will be judged for adding n taking away from the word of God. Praying the hail mary 53 times is not biblical. So U talk about this judge n his punishment. What makes U think he is not going to punish U for disobeying his word. Can U see now how U are deceived but U seem to think tht those who obey the word n exposes the work of the devil will be judged for disobedience. Does it make sense. This is deception n you are deep into it
So when did Jesus say we needed to pray with beads? When did He say we needed Mary for anything? He never did. He said we can go to the Father in His name anytime we want. We can pray directly to Him without any 3rd party. I will always take the direct route and not some altenative way.
So when did Jesus say we needed Mary? Apparently you don't know your bible my friend. Saint Luke's Gospel 1:43 identifies Mary as the Mother of Our Lord and 1:48 states "Henceforth ALL GENERATIONS SHALL CALL (MARY) BLESSED". The Bible is God inspired and it tells us that we will ALL call Mary Blessed as Catholics do!
@@Greg-wn2pp But when did he need her after he was an adult. Jesus had Mary and Joseph come looking for Him when He was 12 years old. Where was Mary, why did it take a full day for the mother of God to find Him? Mary was a good mother overall. She did her job well. Catholics call her blessed because they are told to. It is banged into your head in kindergarten. This is what propaganda does to people. Mary was never Holy, she was never sin-free, not immaculately born, and not the queen of anything. Jesus told her and the other family that He was too busy to see them. He said His Apostles were just as important as she was.
@@bcalvert321 Wow my friend! You seem like you never read the bible! Catholics call Mary Blessed (HOLY) because the BIBLE tells us to do so from Mary's own lips! YES- Mary is sinless JUST as the Bible states!
@@bcalvert321 Do you even realize that Mary is written about throughout the bible? From Genesis to the Apocalypse? You seem not to know your bible or your church history. Mary is mentioned in Genesis 3:15 as *"The Woman"* ; she is called *"Woman"* by her son Jesus Christ more than once thus to fulfill biblical prophecy concerning the Woman mentioned in Genesis 3:15. - St. John 2:4, -"And Jesus saith to her: *Woman*, what is that to me and to thee? and in St. John 19:26 - "When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: *Woman*, behold thy son." In the Apocalypse Chapter 12 where Mary is shown as the Queen of Heaven “[1] And a great sign appeared in heaven: A *woman* clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars: [2] And being with child.....[5] And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with an iron rod: and her son was taken up to God, and to his throne." The *Woman* is clearly Mary and the "man child" is clearly Jesus.
@@Greg-wn2pp Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring[a] and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel. Jesus is the one who crushes the head of the serpent. Mary is not God, she is not Holy. She had no power to do such a thing. Jesus rising from the dead crushed satan's head. Mary had nothing to do with it Jerome got many things wrong on his Layin version. This is just one of many. REV 12. never says it is Mary. John saw a vision as a woman. What this means is the vision represents something else and not a woman. John says this vision has the sun, moon, and stars surrounding her. this is taken from Genesis 37. It is in Jacob's dreams these are first mentioned. The sun and moon are Jacob and Rachel. In one dream his brothers are what shafts bowing to him and in the other they are the stars. In REV. 12 The woman represents Israel the nation. Sun and moon represent Jacob and Rachel and the stars are the sons or the 12 tribes of Israel. REV. is not a history book. It is about prophecy and the end times. Mary has nothing to do with the end times, Israel does. Chapter 12 is about how God will protect Israel from Satan. None of it has to do with Mary.
@@eve3363 Jesus is God. We pray unceasingly as 1 Thes 5:17 commands, but we pray the Psalms 7 times a day as well. The Psalms are prayers by the word of God. It is a prayer book.
@@Jesus3ITrustinThee God did not write Psalms. He imparted wisdom and knowledge into prophets to write down the Psalms. Most importantly, Jesus is not God and Jesus never claimed to be God. The "Trinity " is a lie directly from the tongue of Satan. Satan imparts his lies through the Catholic "Church ", Orthodox "Church", Mormon "Church", Islam, and Judaism.
@@zacharyvandress1120 2Peter 1:20-21 also 2Timothy 3:16, okay interpret and expound or explained are two different things, what you say is true not questioning you. You are right . Is you listened to this video then how is it that man came up with the our Mary replacing the 150 Psalms .. that’s interpretation
What rubbish. If this was practised even before jesus' time, then Jesus should hv done something similar. But the rosary was totally n absolutely not prayed by Jesus n the apostles after Jesus. Surely it would hv been out of the norm for the apostles to even consider something like this n with pagan beads. But paganism is the norm today n having the luminous mysteries confirms tht this is not of God
the old testament was fulfilled in christ. the new covenant is not like the old covenant, it does not live on thru the church, and "taken to new heights". the practices of judaism are not our examples to follow, the sacrifices, the priesthood, all done away with at the cross. "150 psalms reduced down to 150 hail marys"..i laughed out loud. how about rather, knowing that Christ is in you 24/7, praying without ceasing, a new and living way, not ordered and scripted but walking in the Spirit. so, stand fast in the liberty by which christ has set you free, and do not become entangled again with a yoke of bondage. come to jesus and he will give you rest. or you can become "a champion of the rosary". you choose.
@@sigurdholbarki8268 let's see then, how were so many gentiles saved? the old testament is His story. they were written as examples for us. we died to the law and are married to christ. no adultery allowed. the new testament actually reveals the mystery hidden in the old testament scriptures. jesus was in all of it, as he explained on the road to emmaus. the apostles and jesus were continually showing thru the prophets the things that were being fulfilled in their day. have you read this? "where there is a change in the priesthood, there necessitates a change in the law....the law of the Spirit of life in christ jesus.
There is no tradition of using prayer beads in Judaism. The earliest mention of the rosary in literature is at least 1,000 years after the death of Jesus. The Greek Orthodox Church, the earliest Christian Church per se, has no rosary tradition at all.
Don't confuse the issue by using facts as the common roman Catholic will listen to the roman Catholic church first and scripture second if at all. Hail Mary 1/2 from scripture 1/2 from man or satan as it certainly is not scriptural.
@ji8044 Did you not just hear him say no Catholic is obligated to pray the rosary? No one tells them to? Okay, and? Plenty still do use it outside of religious orders.
