16:21 - "So as Christ gave Himself up for His spouse, His bride, which is the Church, so the husband sacrifices himself for the wife". 25:31 - "Do not pay attention to what people say, but to why people say it". 25:47 - "Do not argue about their faith, look into their morals". 26:17 - "If the window is dirty, the light cannot come in. If our moral are bad, then the faith in the light of God cannot come into us". Such wisdom! I'm watching from Brazil and hoping for his canonization. 💙💎
@@JetSkiSuper7 on your behalf I say “our father who art in Heaven, hollowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is heaven, give us this day, our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not in temptation but deliver us from evil” amen. Maybe one day you will appreciate The Lord’s saving power n goodness.
Young people today are fed the belief to worship the body , taking supplements sun beds ,botox ,gyms having the perfect body they forget this world will pass away but the word of Christ will never pass away .
Supplements are arguably necessary now, due to the fact that our government has legislated mandatory destruction of the nutrition in our food. For example, all produce must be radiated before going to the market, which destroys, among other things, the vitamin C in them. Not to mention the chemicals added to foods, and to the soil, rather than having to rotate crops to replenish soil nutrients. If you're one of those lucky people who can eat anything and still feel great, you would probably not understand what others suffer because if the abuse of our food supply, and the need to preserves shelf life in unnatural ways. You probably meant things like supplements used for building big muscles in combination with gym workouts, for vanity.
@@kselka1 I think all catholic men should go to the gym for the gains, because when we are physically stronger and more imposing, it makes others respect us more, and it shows the faith isnt just for "nerds".
Pray 4 me 🙏 my name is Andy turned 21 from New york and im having emotion and spiritual warfare ..i also in danger ,i need God to restore my health and i also got enemies ..Pray for me please.I just wanna live a Happy normal life here in these world 😢
"Everyone is either male or female. It's that simple. Period. Not at all complicated." It's unfortunate to see how far we've declined since he said these words.
I will say though, as much as we would like to believe it is unique to our century, it is not. Check out the book "Fathers Know Best" about the early church fathers (year 800 and earlier). In the early 5th Century (400s) one of the church fathers was lamenting about the "feminization" of men...men not knowing how to be men... You can also look at other early empires like Greek and Roman that had similar problems.
ADVICE ON SEX FROM A MAN WHO NEVER HAD SEX IN HIS LIFE. WELL AT LEAST THAT WE KNOW OF. WHO KNOWS WHAT REALLY WENT ON BEHIND CLOSED DOORS AS WITH SO MANY CATHOLIC PRIESTS. The Catholic Church is the cause of enormous suffering in the world. It forbids family planning so families suffer under the burden of too many children to care for, Catholic nations suffer massively because of over-population, women suffer terribly having to bear and care for as many children as their husbands can impregnate them with. Absolutely evil religion.
drServitis drServitis One does not need to participate in a subject to know of it. One does not need murder another to know he’s wrong. One does not need to commit an act of heresy to know a heretic. One does not need to feel sexual love to know love. If your talking about the sex crisis, Fulton Sheen is probably the most traditional Bishop there is at the time, you got the wrong guy. There are Judases in the Churches Hierarchy, there always will be. As I just stated Judas turned Jesus over to the Authorities to get money, Judas was a Bishop or at least held the rank of a Bishop. None of the Church Scandal has to do with actual Church teachings. The Catholic Church forbids contraception because Sex was created to be both Unitive and Reproductive. Both sides must be upheld. If people started covering their eyes and ears and the Catholic Church told people not to do that because that’s not the purpose of the ears and eyes would the Church be wrong to say that? So too is it unnatural to cover sex in plastic and prevent it from doing what sex was made todo. On your thinking that having large families impoverish the couple. No, it’s hard to get by but not impossible, I have friends who do have 5 and 8 kids, they don’t have that much trouble with that. Because you are one flesh within marriage, you suffer and create together. A man suffers when his wife suffers and so on. Natural Family Planning is always there but, it still allows for pregnancy. God created humanity to be fruitful, Catholics do so within marriage. As Mother Teresa saying there’s to many children is like saying there is too many flowers. Why are you really saying this? What do you blame on the Church for your own fault?
Still listening in 2020. I listen to this series every Advent and Lent. It inspires me to strive for goodness and light our savior Lord Jesus Christ the son of the living God.
Had my parents been Catholic, and I be exposed to such truth, I would not have been so confused, unloving, and impressionable, I would have loved myself, our God more, and embraced His love with all the graces it provides…I still struggle with my sins of youth and freedoms. 😢
@@dnzlpintoa parent’s most important job is to raise them as saints and that only comes through knowing, loving, and serving our Lord. Boomers embraced world view and strayed very far from His love, a child only knows and values what he or she is exposed to…porn, inappropriate touching, and manipulative adults is often things we were exposed to, I was far too young to process it all by myself, yet too ashamed to tell my parents as they were 0:0too busy to care…had I been brought into churches with Good Shepherds like Fr I would have found the Truth to make better choices, finding the support and love in His grace…you don’t know me, you don’t know what happened, and you are not my friend, go and troll someone else to feel morally superior somewhere else.
@brettdethmers7411 I dont need to know your past. But it seems you are all negative whether it's about your parents , your past, or me. The only thing you have to do is make your today better than your past. However, as long you have time to feel guilty or criticize someone else, you have that much less time to improve...
"Purity gives us vision~ if the window is dirty the light cannot come in. If our morals are bad~ then the faith and the light if God cannot come into us" sooooo many good quotes in this one video! I love Ven Fulton Sheen~
cynic150 We are all sinners. However, when the window is dirty put on your windshield wipers. Catholic Church offers all of us Confession, which helps make the windows sparkle. Gods mercy is unfathomable, however we have to ask for his forgiveness. If we cannot recognize sin in the world, this gives us a license to have a mirror in every one of our rooms
@@markheneghan3804 8 Confession is one man listening to another man. If you believe in god, then you must know that only God has the power to forgive anything, not a man in a habit! Saying Hail Mary will not do anything or erase your sins!
cynic150 Priest is used as an instrument for Gods work. Priest in Catholic Church take the vows of Obedience , Chastity & Poverty. Unfortunately Priest are men who commit many wrongdoings & sin they are human beings. Still gives man a chance to show vulnerability & sorrow. God has a bucket of unlimited forgiveness. Problem is most men don’t believe in confession because they have a hard time recognizing sin.
Years after and Bishop Sheen is still lecturing me on how to live my life through my most difficult times. I pray that he be placed upon the altars as a Saint!
I’m proud to say that my son sacrificed himself for his wife. When they were engaged, my daughter in law contracted Multiple Sclerosis. He still insisted on marrying her, knowing there could be no children, and that he would have to physically take care of her for life. Twelve years later he’s still keeping his promise. I have nothing but admiration for both of them.
Lord Jesus Christ I thank you for having this blessed opportunity to listen to his sermon. What a mesmerizing messages. Today's need. I hear his sermon repeatedly.
I can watch Bishop Sheen all day long! He’s so interesting to listen to. He doesn’t preach like he is reading a script. He just talks to you like he means it. He explains things with examples that you can understand and makes sense. I wish he were alive and preaching today. I wonder what he would say about what’s happening in our world today? His sermons are timeless. He looks just like my grandfather that has passed away a long time ago.
“Every sacrament or every mystery has two elements: First, physical. Secondly, spiritual. Something that is visible; something that is invisible. Take for example, baptism. What is the physical side of baptism? Water. What is the invisible side of baptism? The cleansing of the soul to make us children of God. . . The Eucharist is a sacrament, a mystery. Something you could see: bread. Something invisible: the presence of Christ. Sex is a mystery. There is something physical about it. Everyone is either male or female. It’s that simple. Period. Not at all complicated. What is the invisible side of sex? What is the mystery? It’s a mystery of love and it stands for something spiritual. First of all, sex stands for God’s creative power given to people. So He gives the creative power to a husband and wife. Instead of directly creating us, He says to a father and mother, ‘I will let you share my creative power, and you will give life.’ This is the spiritual side of marriage and of sex, but it also stands for something else. . .”
All of my friends growing up did seem to worship specific female body parts. The girls I've known do genuinely seem to love the whole man. I never put 2 and 2 together. This man thinks on a much higher level.
This is not true anymore [if it ever was]. I hear girls all the time talking about what a "cute butt" a guy has, how muscular he is, his abs, his hair, his tan [big one] JFK junior was slobbered over for his looks only - it's the same now. Girls today will marry a guy for his looks, and they will vote for presidents exclusively on their looks. Then there's fame, an even bigger aspect women will gush over, to the exclusion of other traits . If you've seen any beatle concert footage, it's hard to argue this one. Neither of these remotely included the "whole man". As much as I like Fulton, and from my own observations, I think he's dead wrong on this one.
Women love the idea they project onto a guy. They pay attention only to a few qualities of his character and dream about the rest. Men lust over the female body, women lust over the male spirit. But it's lust either way. Failure to realize this puts all the blame on men when it's a problem with both. Immaturity looks different in men and women.
@@jimjoe9945 I believe when used in vain, but I believe the above poster intended it to be an incantation, using God's name to describe her admiration towards the message.
Joe Lusk Everyone is born to become a saint and not all Christians who lived good lives and are in heaven are officially saints . To be officially declared a saint you need to have two documented miracles.
The miracle requirement has been practically removed by being diluted. Research the proposed miracle underlying the pending canonization of Pope Paul VI.
@@kaitandlima4608 Cynicism is not a problem, it is an advantageous approach to thinking about things that you are told, but have not experienced, for example.
@@cynic150 you carry your faith I'll carry my faith. This way, commenting on every other comment and opposing will not solve your problems. Solve those problems. Don't just criticise others.
Read the book Americas Bishop by Thomas Reeves that tell s it all,even converted him while reaserching Bishop sheens life. This book was blacklisted by media. No one wanted to tell the story of one of the Greatest catholic clerics.😳🙄😡
Thanks for making this lecture available. I just discovered Venerable Fulton Sheen✨a gift from God. Just now more than ever we need a teacher like him. Venerable Fulton Sheen Pray for us
passing thought here, history doesn't seem to record 'men'. It kinda records a single individual that stood out at the period, just one person could have stood out in an entire century but with time, the net sum of these people that stand out se em to give an impression that men or women of olden days were all 'heros'. Some how i kinda feel in our age, we are as we always have been through out history. We are broken and confused and we seem to think it's progress. Next century, they'll also complain about how we were the standards of greatness, when im truth, they only think that because of the few individuals that stand out during our time.
Sermons were always this good, we all have to listen. When we were young we chose not to listen, instead, we follow the crowd to whatever is trending and separate us from the light of Christ!
yeah, I just saw that they can't get permission to move his body. I can't see what difference that should make. I will pray that someday this holy man will be canonized.

A man such as this has the breath of God himself in his lungs. He foresaw the evil and secularization of the current day, and was a warrior against. God Bless him.
14:04 "Everyone is either male of female.... it's that simple, period, not at all complicated." Not that many years after this sermon and satan was able to confuse even these simple terms...
20:47 Wow this part hits home, because I did a lot errors with my sexuality, even up to this day. This is why I believe God has me single, because I'm not ready for marriage nor I may never be, marriage is a huge responsibility because you need to take your spouse to holiness.
I was a teenager when Cardinal Sheen made this speech. There were religious cults, free love hippy movements, and chaos in more of the universities then not. But I gove thanks I was led by God in his way not all the youth's ways to study at 17 -18 at Alvernia College. I am sorry,but youth today are the same crybabies. I would nevwer be the best speaker At a wqorld youth day or world year of the family because I'd lay out the truth of how St. John the Evangelist himself with two children,Saint Edith Stein and her sister. Now, he was my Adviser at Freedom High School and he helped me. My parents went to Alvernia College at 8:00 at night and Saint Claire came happily to meet them and help enroll me. Yes that is truth. She is Sister Paccelli.
Can someone please explain to me the joke about the pajamas and the rochet? Is it that they thought he was married and it was a woman’s lace nightgown or something?
+Bishop Sheen is one of a kind gentleman with great wisdom and intelligence, laced with sharp wits and extraordinary eloquence, yet very down-to-earth and engaging to Christians of all layers. The modern incarnation of St. Vincent Ferrer or St. Francis de Sales indeed and the sort of clergyman we need for these times.
THIS MAN IS FUCKING WISE. Ever since I opened my heart and submitted to the truth of this world and myself I realised everything he is saying is soooooo true and sooooooo useful. Liars. Liars everywhere.
