No longer eligible to vote in a Conclave, but technically still electable as Pope, himself. And, Heaven help us, he's exactly the type of strong medicine the Church NEEDS right now.
Jesus Christ, as the good cardinal says: the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, for always. These comments by Arinze are concise, very well thought out and expressed and speak for the majority of Catholics, I believe. I appreciate, also, his most important point: servants come and go but Jesus is the most important message. My gratitude for posting this.
@@nberrios777 cardinal arinze defends the truth with scriptural and traditional evidence. He's not afraid to stand up to evil, blasphemy, and sacrilege and protects Holy Mother Church especially in a time of confusion and infiltration. He's clarifies the uncertainty people have.

This is beautiful. I love Cardinal Arinze; he's such a smart and holy man. He doesn't have much chance of being elected, but he's lived such a full life already. God bless him.
You are a blessing to us and the Catholic community. You love your people in Eziowelle and your sister village Abacha; which is my village. My love is undying for you, Cardinal.
How inspiring to remind us "Our faith is not on the Pope, is on Christ, who is the foundation of the Church. Christ is the same yesterday, today, and the same forever". Thanks CNS for posting. This is good Catholic news coverage.
This is another transparently Holy Man. I was probably as much as anyone I knew in the Ratzinger camp in 2005, and I miss him multiple hours every day. But I have great reverence and love for Arinze, who is the picture of a man who effectively communicates his faith, and he is playing a large role, alone with Cardinal Turkson in the explosion of Catholicism in Africa. May these Princes of the Church continue to do their job in remembering to always pray to discern what God wants. Cars.
What an awesome and clear testimony to the Catholicity and importnace of this event. I am strenthened by his words of wisdom when he says that Papa Benedict "may be teaching us more things [in his resignation] than we may have realized." God bless Benedict XVI for ever and ever.

Thanks for sharing this. Remember too that the "Church" is not just the building in which we worship, nor is it the Vatican, pope, cardinals, bishops and priests (they are parts of the Church); the CHURCH is the BODY of CHRIST. The BODY of CHRIST is the COMMUNITY of BELIEVERS. The COMMUNITY of BELIEVERS is THE CHURCH. I love being Catholic and I LOVE the CHURCH. GOD bless and keep you ALL. Peace, OUT. aas

I would LOVE so much to see Cardinal Arinze become Pope he articulated his point so beautifully. Our faith is not in the Pope but in Christ; we are only servants. Beautiful!!! Make him Pope someday!!

He articulates with common sense and love. Just two of the many things this world needs right now. I pray the Holy Spirit inspires the other cardinals to elect him.
Cardinal Arinze I love you and your steadfastness and support for Pope Bendedict XVI. But what strikes me is that when it was mentioned that Holy Father that he was clear headed and firm and could not have rushed the decision, that is what puzzles me. If he was clear and firm why he would not continue? Was there something that we all missed? Catholics must not be caught by surprises anymore, though we will continue our life with pains and suffering.
Emminence you give me courage especially now with the current crisis...you are so right our faith is based on Christ and the Pope could be a holy man or evil man..it will not alter the greatness and perfection of Holy Mother Church!

The pope who is he a god on earth lol ? We have o ne father and that is god no one. Else I'm sure this world will go on without the pope etc ? James anti religion but have a free mind with noo attachments to it lol James UK
Yes all the beautiful art work and artifacts are our treasures.The beauty of the church belongs to the people. It is there for the whole world to enjoy!
Frankly I don't know why the Cardinals or anybody would have been shocked by Benedict's action in resigning. He has been hinting and even saying for the last few years he would take this action which according to Canon law he has a right to do.
May God continue to Bless Pope Benedict, Cardinal Arinze, and all the holy and Orthodox Cardinals in the coming days and weeks. And may God have mercy on the souls and convert the hearts of those who are His enemies, and His vicar.
Arinze is great! I'll never forget when he gave a speech at Georgetown and ripped into them for not having any Catholic identity anymore (i.e. crucifix on wall in classrooms,having pro-abortion faculty members, etc.) and he ruffled their feathers and offended the libs. That's when I knew he should've been our Pope after JP II. Nothing against Ratzinger, but we need a more energetic, younger Pope who is NOT European.
Too dang bad for all of them, Latin has always been the official language of the Church, and if they have a problem with Latin, then they must return to school and learn this beautiful language
Anyone who is confused about the Pope resigning should watch this! Every word he said made perfect sense and was very comforting. Like he said, the Holy Spirit does not go on holidays and will surely see the church through and at the end of the day it should be about serving Christ. AMEN Cardinal Arinze, AMEN!!!!!
Peace be with you... I wish to congratulate all my catholic brothers and sisters. We have Jesus Christ as our founder we have the Holy Spirit guiding us. We have 1.2 billion Catholics and 2000 years of history... God Bless--
There is no danger but it causes confusion. Christ is our focus true, but the Pope is Christ's representative of Christ on earth. There is no sentiment but concern for the affect it has on the faithful.
Sorry I didn't get around to addressing your puerile juvenilities at an earlier date. Okay, kiddo. You can say whatever you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you rely on your ad hominem rants in order to feel better about yourself. My argument was based upon Scripture: the church is the very pillar and foundation of the truth. You never even bothered addressing that. Instead, you regurgitated some foolishness about the Pope not being as virtuous as you suppose you are. See ya kid.
My prayers are given to God, my faith is in the promises of Christ, unfortunately, I have no income, so I instead offer the Church my time and effort. He never deemed himself as living up to perfect virtue. You've literally made a fool of yourself for the entire world to see on the Internet, and all in one TH-cam comment. You deserve a prize for that: "1st Place: Most Self-Refuting Comment of the Year".
I am a Catholic, and I think a fairly knowledgeable one. You obviously do not know what you are talking about. 1 - The Pope is not the "god" of Catholics. The Pope is a servant of the Church. As the leading bishop, we look to him for instruction and pastoral care. We do not worship him. 2 - Only God forgives sins. Not the Pope. Not a priest. Christians have been performing auricular confession (privately to the priest) since the earliest days of Christianity.
Ooh, I can speak conspiracy theorist too. Want to see? Great city = JERUSALEM, sits on seven mountains/hills (Jerusalem), "Make the tabernacle in this manner: Thou shalt make ten curtains of fine twisted linen, and violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed" Exodus 26:1 (Tabernacle--->Temple in JERUSALEM), "come out of her" (your Protestant denomination) Revelation 18:4. Pretty good, huh? Mindless, clearly regurgitated quotes, unsubstantiated hypotheses, all the good old stuff you tend to use.
Funny you'd say that. The Gospel of Matthew is believed by many reputable scholars (and the early Church Fathers agree with this) to have been written in Aramaic originally! The distinction of large and small rocks is true, in Classical Greek. However, the distinction is NOT preserved in Koine Greek. Yes, all Scripture is inspired by God, but remember that men were the ones who wrote it. They had occasional slip-ups in wording, such as the humorous addendum of "Demas too" at Colossians 4:14.
Really? Revelation 17 says the words "Catholic Church" in it? If not, you are guilty of making a private interpretation of prophecies of Scripture (2 Peter 1:20) and you are sinning. Don't worry, you can be forgiven if you confess your sins to another (James 5:16), specifically one whom Christ ordained to the office (John 20:23) and one who carries out the ministry of reconciliation as an ambassador of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:18-20). I thought that Satan knew Scripture well...Guess I was wrong.
Yes, they were representatives of the Church, and poor ones at that. You could say that the men who burned heretics were poor witnesses to the Catholic faith just as Jack Schaap was (hopefully) a bad witness to the Baptist faith. It is unfortunate that men in places of authority are bad at their jobs, but it happens. Prayer can ease our pains, but forgiveness of them is necessary first. Remember not to throw the first stone until you have no sin within you.
I understand that the masculine/feminie differentiation of petra and petros sets you off, but keep in mind that the noun gender change was necessary as Simon was a man and would be rather embarassed if Christ gave him a feminine name! Further, Christ didn't speak Greek in the first place, He would have said" You are Kephas and on this kephas [rock] I will build my church." Matt. 16:18 is not my only justification. Who did Jesus ask to watch his flock in John 21:15-17?None other than St. Peter.
You don't understand what the word heretic means. The Catholic scientists who proposed new theories were ridiculed by ALL of their contemporary society. The equivalent of Copernicus (a Catholic priest) positing his theory at that time would be like someone proposing gravity is caused by invisible strings between all matter. It would sound ridiculous in the face of current sciences, just as his theory did. By the way, the Church never did that. Individuals within the Church did. Huge difference.
Dead rituals? Oh, you mean like the ones by which you unite yourself to the Body of Christ that is the Church of true believers? Who are you to say whether or not they have repented? Have you met every one of them personally and asked them if they have repented? I'm glad you have been born again. I was born again by water and the Holy Spirit 17 years ago at my baptism. I hope that some day you will realize your mistake in leaving truth in favor of an easy plan of salvation.
St. Jerome used the Greek, Hebrew, and possibly Aramaic texts to put together the Latin Vulgate. What Egyptian texts are you referring to? I don't think St. Jerome knew hieroglyphics... The Book of Enoch is alluded to in Jude 1:14, but it was never added to the official canon of Scripture because the Hebrews did not accept it as inspired in the Old Testament era. The Church, when standardizing the canon, did not think it expedient to add a sense of inspiration to it that was not there prior.
Was EVERY word that Jesus spoke necessarily literal? Do you truly hate your mother, father, and your own life? (Lk 14:26) And, I'm sure you're an advocate of the nonliteral meaning of Matt 26:26-28. But, with regard to the original point, was St. Paul condemned because he called Abraham his father? (Rom 4:12, 16) Finally, what do you call your own father? Papa, Pop, Dad, etc. all mean the same thing, so don't think you can gloss over Matt. 23:9 just by not using the exact word "father."
Yes, I am rather upset that men sin. Unfortunately, the Church has not always had as great men as St. Peter to run it (though even he denied Jesus thrice!). I posit Alexander VI, Formosus, etc. Nevertheless, the FACT that men sin does not turn me away from the Church that Christ founded. The Church needs a Pope for the same reason the Hebrews needed a king, they would be lost in anarchy if they tried to establish a pure theocracy. MAYBE a nice thought, but it's simply not even feasible.
The Church is the Body of Christ and the very "pillar and foundation of truth." If you wish to speak against it, be my guest. Heretics have been doing that for 2000 years now. If you wish to speak against the men in it who have been admittedly far from perfect, do so, but remember Christ's teaching on casting the first stone. True, a disgusting number of Catholic (as well as Protestant) clergy have committed sexual sin. However, speaking bad about them will solve nothing. Rather, pray for them.
The Catholic Church IS the Church of Christ, plain and simple and has the Divine guarantee that the gates of hell shall not prevail. If at any point in history the Catholic Church ceased being the Church that Christ founded then God's promises to the Church have failed and the gates of hell have prevailed. What you refer to as 'a perversion of biblical principles' is your perception. The authority to teach in His name never left the Church and the Church continues this mission. Catholic com
You missed the point: The original twelve consisted of sinners (one grievously so) and so if you're going to condemn the Church today based on the fact that there's some members who don't want to follow the teachings of Christ then you must equally apply that principle throughout all history. You don't judge a medicine by those who refuse to take it, do you? Nor should you judge the Church by the actions of those who do not follow it's teachings.
Peace be upon you Who is Christ Jesus ? 1- The god 2- The son of The god 3- The god and Theson in some 4- The messenger of The god Allah look at the book " The bible " what can we see Jesus said to His The god *- [Van Dyke] [Jn.17.3] And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. Jesus Christ is The messenger of The god Allah
You can look in Rev 12 to start. Obviously the Antichrist will rise up against the Church. Perhaps you would like to name a scripture contradiction and be more specific as to what you're referring to as innocent blood? Are you scandalized by sinful members in the Church? How are you then not scandalized by Christianity in general (assuming you're protestant) since there were sinful members to begin with; one of the original 12 betrayed Christ?
What religion (or lack of) are you coming from? God in the O.T. ordered thousands to be killed (ie. book of Exodus etc.) And St. Peter pronounces the death sentence to Ananias's wife in Acts:5. The death penalty is clearly established in the Bible as legitimate. Concerning "millions" killed during the inquisition it has been demonstrated that there maybe a few thousands over the course of 300 years but they were justified under religious and state law.
I think it was the Persians which invented crucifixion so the cross wouldn't be a "pagan symbol" from the Romans but I don't see the relevance of that seeing how Christ saw fit to use the cross as the means of His death - pagan origins or not. The cross has become an easily recognized symbol of our redemption and the early Christians made use of the symbol quite regularly as there is an overwhelming use of it in the catacombs as well as the early practice of making the 'sign of the cross.'
Like I said - no Catholic follows a cross (your words). We follow the Church established by Christ. The cross was the instrument chosen by Christ to effect the redemption and He makes use of the *mental imagery* of the cross throughout His preaching (like when He tells us to take up our crosses daily etc.) as well as St. Paul. Search the NT usage of the word 'cross' and you will see that it is used throughout.
I don't know of a single Catholic who follows a symbol. The Catholic Church was founded by Christ Mt16:18 and History bears this out. When Christ ascended into Heaven He didn't give the Apostles Bibles and tell them to hand them out and let everyone pick and choose what they want to believe. No, He established a Church which has the power to teach in His name, to bind and to loose and he who does not want to hear the Church let him be to thee as a Heathen and a publican.
The verses you gave don't even say the word priest anywhere in them. Yes, of course I agree with private prayer, as do all genuine Catholics. Indeed, living the Lord's Prayer is even more important than saying the words. I agree. However, did He ever say you were forbidden from repeating Scripture? Last time I checked, He used Scripture as prayer many times.
Well, I don't ever want to outright ignore somebody's mistaken comments, because maybe, just MAYBE, they'll show a little common sense and see where they went wrong if I can help to point them in the right direction. However, in accordance with Titus 3:10, "after the first and second admonition" I will "avoid" the "heretic". +AMDG+
just remember everyone the true Jesus Christ of light for Christianity have's a twin brother so the questions is who they so call this Christ are they talking about just remember the anti-Christ could be that false prophet they talking call their Jesus Christ maybe im wrong i dont know so yea maybe one of the other i could be right or wrong
You're not free to come up with your own doctrine concerning the Trinity. It is 3 persons in one being - all of them being equally God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This is part of Divine Revelation and has been infallibly taught by the Church since the beginning. Any teaching that is contrary is heretical.
'Holy Father' is a term used to describe the office not the person. Sure there has been a few unholy Popes just as there was an unholy Apostle. To say that no one is holy except Jesus is not true since Christ calls us all to be holy and St. Paul refers to the Apostles as Holy (Eph 3:5) - which is what the Pope is - a successor of St. Peter.
Did I ever say that Christians do not have direct access to God? You seem to be putting words in my mouth. Every Christian still has direct access to God. I don't see your point because you based it on an argument I never made. That would be called a "strawman".
Where in the Bible does it say that we must make such substitutions? I assume you are operating under the heresy of sola scriptura, so you can only quote Scripture in support of your statement. Remember, no private interpretations are allowed here (2 Peter 1:20). +AMDG+
They encourage them to not slaughter the human beings that they give life to because they cannot control their lustful impulses. Big difference. I know it's not hard to do such, you simply are talking down on a charity organization, not a criminal organization.
Many other religions don't believe in this either. Judaism, Islam are of the few. Why don't you ask them to change their doctrine? Why focus on Catholicism? Before you go lambasting my Church to change (and it won't), how about you ask those that behead heretics to change as well :\
The Blessed Trinity is clearly established in the Bible and taught authoritatively in the Bible. Christ taught to baptize in the *name* of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There are numerous instances of God revealing Himself as a Trinity. It is one of the core beliefs of Christianity.
Dear Cardinal Arinze, please Sir. I have a very high concerns regards the appointment of Pa Pete Edochie, who was appointed as KNIGHTS in Catholic Church. But this man is NOT a Christian. He is into cultic x 10. ETC. PETE EDOCHIE last born (YUL) married to a very strong Catholic member lady (MARY). Pete Edochie son had 2nd wife with two children, and 3rd wife with son. So the 1st wife said, l can be number with any woman. Pete Edochie had made the 1st wife hell on earth. And refused to give the first wife her PROPERTIES given to her by her late parents. Etc. Sir please help MARY, Pete Edochie want to kpai this lady. If the Catholic Church look into this case, URGENTLY. There are so many things l can not say here. IF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WOULD PLEASE LOOK INTO TH-cam regards this report. THIS IS INCIDENT IS HAPPENING NTEJE, IN ANAMBRA STATE in South East.
oh so you're saying everything that has to do with God is one on one? that people in heaven don't do anything? You're wrong. Jesus is salvation of course. The Body of Christ is united in Him, that is why heaven transcends time and space and why people are able to ask for intersession from each other. Why did Jesus tell his apostles, "stay up and pray with me" if they're not allowed to pray in heaven? They do pray in heaven, in fact, it's in Revelations chapter 5. Trust in God who gave YOU the
BE CAREFUL THAT NO ONE DECEIVES YOU. MATTHEW 24 - 5 For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and they will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; Take care that you are not troubled, because all this must happen; but it's not the end yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in different places. 8 And all this will be the beginning of sorrows.
No. I want people to make their own choice to believe or not. If you don't like people enforcing beliefs on you, don't enforce the belief of no religion in general on them. Peace.

Jesus is the only salvation catholics stop praying to Mary. Theres nothing she can do to save you or help you! Jesus is the only salvation and his rapture is imminent!
the catholic church are middle men, pay the salaries, pope mobiles, cardinals villas, gold robes, and if theres any loose change give a bit to charity (with strings attatched)
I could listen to him talk all day. A wonderful bishop.
Cardinal Arinze YES he would make a fantastic Pope
@Gilbert Please, its really not.

Hello your Eminence . Would like to have chat with you. How do I go about it? Thank you.
@@lydiaaka3136 It is a fake account. His Eminence would never ask you for money over the internet.
Cardinal Arinze should have been elected Pope!
He was too old to go to the conclave. But yes, he would've made a great pope.
No longer eligible to vote in a Conclave, but technically still electable as Pope, himself. And, Heaven help us, he's exactly the type of strong medicine the Church NEEDS right now.
John xxiii was an old guy, too. Arinze would have my vote.
I watch Cardinal Arinze on EWTN and have always loved his knowledge and wisdom....let us pray we have a Pope with qualities like Cardinal Arinze!
St John Bosco Guide, Teacher and Model for Priests: th-cam.com/video/tRa4MhjDjF0/w-d-xo.html
This is the first time I've heard Arinze talk and he's a very charismatic man. You guys are lucky to have him
Jesus Christ, as the good cardinal says: the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, for always. These comments by Arinze are concise, very well thought out and expressed and speak for the majority of Catholics, I believe. I appreciate, also, his most important point: servants come and go but Jesus is the most important message. My gratitude for posting this.
I prayed that Cardinal Arinze is the Pope.
Amen! He’d be an AMAZING Pope!!!
Why? And before you assume that I am a racist, I am not white.
@@nberrios777 cardinal arinze defends the truth with scriptural and traditional evidence. He's not afraid to stand up to evil, blasphemy, and sacrilege and protects Holy Mother Church especially in a time of confusion and infiltration. He's clarifies the uncertainty people have.
he is over the age of 80. He can not become pope.
Nicholas, the correct English is..that Cardinal Arinze Would Be..the Pope
It is Christ who is the Same: Yesterday, Today, and Forever.

Clear cut no nonsense clarity of the church's teaching. Need a Pope like him right now.
This is beautiful. I love Cardinal Arinze; he's such a smart and holy man. He doesn't have much chance of being elected, but he's lived such a full life already. God bless him.
You are a blessing to us and the Catholic community. You love your people in Eziowelle and your sister village Abacha; which is my village. My love is undying for you, Cardinal.
How inspiring to remind us "Our faith is not on the Pope, is on Christ, who is the foundation of the Church. Christ is the same yesterday, today, and the same forever". Thanks CNS for posting. This is good Catholic news coverage.
This is another transparently Holy Man. I was probably as much as anyone I knew in the Ratzinger camp in 2005, and I miss him multiple hours every day. But I have great reverence and love for Arinze, who is the picture of a man who effectively communicates his faith, and he is playing a large role, alone with Cardinal Turkson in the explosion of Catholicism in Africa. May these Princes of the Church continue to do their job in remembering to always pray to discern what God wants. Cars.
As always, Cardinal Arinze speaks truth, with great wisdom and charity.
What an awesome and clear testimony to the Catholicity and importnace of this event. I am strenthened by his words of wisdom when he says that Papa Benedict "may be teaching us more things [in his resignation] than we may have realized." God bless Benedict XVI for ever and ever.

Thanks for sharing this.

I wish Cardinal Arinze WOULD BE the pope, not was
Our prayer's are with our Holy Father always !!!!
I would LOVE so much to see Cardinal Arinze become Pope he articulated his point so beautifully. Our faith is not in the Pope but in Christ; we are only servants.
Beautiful!!! Make him Pope someday!!

He articulates with common sense and love. Just two of the many things this world needs right now. I pray the Holy Spirit inspires the other cardinals to elect him.
The Mass of Saint Pius v is the correct Mass, and Saint Pius 10 who tried to maintain the correct Mass, knowing what was coming in the future
Cardinal Arinze I love you and your steadfastness and support for Pope Bendedict XVI. But what strikes me is that when it was mentioned that Holy Father that he was clear headed and firm and could not have rushed the decision, that is what puzzles me. If he was clear and firm why he would not continue? Was there something that we all missed? Catholics must not be caught by surprises anymore, though we will continue our life with pains and suffering.
Love you daddy,you will be a saint.Thanks for encouraging the world
why do u call him daddy, so weird.
@@reigenlucilfer6154 In Cardinal Arinze's culture, it's normal to call a man around your father's age daddy. Same applies to women.
I am WRONG to conclude that there is discrimination in our church? If not, then it is time to have an african Pope, please.
Emminence you give me courage especially now with the current crisis...you are so right our faith is based on Christ and the Pope could be a holy man or evil man..it will not alter the greatness and perfection of Holy Mother Church!

The pope who is he a god on earth lol ? We have o ne father and that is god no one. Else I'm sure this world will go on without the pope etc ? James anti religion but have a free mind with noo attachments to it lol James UK
Yes all the beautiful art work and artifacts are our treasures.The beauty of the church belongs to the people. It is there for the whole world to enjoy!
The Catholic Church popped up officially from the Holy Spirit at first Pentecost after the Lord's ascension.
Even as an atheist, I must admit Arinze speaks well. Thoughtful, insightful and charismatic.
Frankly I don't know why the Cardinals or anybody would have been shocked by Benedict's action in resigning. He has been hinting and even saying for the last few years he would take this action which according to Canon law he has a right to do.
I would chafe under Cardinal Wuerl, who is completely out of step with PP Benedict on the reform of the reform.
I love listening to Cardinal Arinze speak..I think he would make a great pope.
May God continue to Bless Pope Benedict, Cardinal Arinze, and all the holy and Orthodox Cardinals in the coming days and weeks. And may God have mercy on the souls and convert the hearts of those who are His enemies, and His vicar.
Arinze is great! I'll never forget when he gave a speech at Georgetown and ripped into them for not having any Catholic identity anymore (i.e. crucifix on wall in classrooms,having pro-abortion faculty members, etc.) and he ruffled their feathers and offended the libs. That's when I knew he should've been our Pope after JP II. Nothing against Ratzinger, but we need a more energetic, younger Pope who is NOT European.
At least Pope after BXVI. I love Cdl. Arinze's CLARITY and DIRECTNESS.
i love this guy..he is just so good and clear
The Gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church.
Funny, our Catholic Church is packed every Sunday.
If not Cardinal Arinze, then by God's grace someone of his spiritual stature, virtue, and clarity.
Very well said, Cardinal Arinze.
I love this man. He's down to earth. His roots are established in the Bible alone
My niggah is telling da truth
Now that's a wise man that recognised a wise decision.
As all ways from the begin to the end and around again for ever and ever with no End Amen
Legend has it most in the congregation did not know what was happening as Benedict was speaking Latin.
fak u I bet you got this from the movie "Two Popes"
Omovoiye Precious no that’s a fact
Too dang bad for all of them, Latin has always been the official language of the Church, and if they have a problem with Latin, then they must return to school and learn this beautiful language
What is the reason?
and who are you to judge?
I hope Arinze becomes the next pope.
Anyone who is confused about the Pope resigning should watch this! Every word he said made perfect sense and was very comforting.
Like he said, the Holy Spirit does not go on holidays and will surely see the church through and at the end of the day it should be about serving Christ.
AMEN Cardinal Arinze, AMEN!!!!!
Peace be with you... I wish to congratulate all my catholic brothers and sisters. We have Jesus Christ as our founder we have the Holy Spirit guiding us. We have 1.2 billion Catholics and 2000 years of history... God Bless--
There is no danger but it causes confusion. Christ is our focus true, but the Pope is Christ's representative of Christ on earth. There is no sentiment but concern for the affect it has on the faithful.
do u know whom u are talking to?
Do u know to WHOM u are talking?
Sorry I didn't get around to addressing your puerile juvenilities at an earlier date.
Okay, kiddo. You can say whatever you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you rely on your ad hominem rants in order to feel better about yourself.
My argument was based upon Scripture: the church is the very pillar and foundation of the truth. You never even bothered addressing that. Instead, you regurgitated some foolishness about the Pope not being as virtuous as you suppose you are.
See ya kid.
My prayers are given to God, my faith is in the promises of Christ, unfortunately, I have no income, so I instead offer the Church my time and effort. He never deemed himself as living up to perfect virtue.
You've literally made a fool of yourself for the entire world to see on the Internet, and all in one TH-cam comment. You deserve a prize for that: "1st Place: Most Self-Refuting Comment of the Year".
I am a Catholic, and I think a fairly knowledgeable one. You obviously do not know what you are talking about.
1 - The Pope is not the "god" of Catholics. The Pope is a servant of the Church. As the leading bishop, we look to him for instruction and pastoral care. We do not worship him.
2 - Only God forgives sins. Not the Pope. Not a priest. Christians have been performing auricular confession (privately to the priest) since the earliest days of Christianity.
Ooh, I can speak conspiracy theorist too. Want to see?
Great city = JERUSALEM, sits on seven mountains/hills (Jerusalem), "Make the tabernacle in this manner: Thou shalt make ten curtains of fine twisted linen, and violet and purple, and scarlet twice dyed" Exodus 26:1 (Tabernacle--->Temple in JERUSALEM), "come out of her" (your Protestant denomination) Revelation 18:4.
Pretty good, huh? Mindless, clearly regurgitated quotes, unsubstantiated hypotheses, all the good old stuff you tend to use.
Funny you'd say that. The Gospel of Matthew is believed by many reputable scholars (and the early Church Fathers agree with this) to have been written in Aramaic originally!
The distinction of large and small rocks is true, in Classical Greek. However, the distinction is NOT preserved in Koine Greek.
Yes, all Scripture is inspired by God, but remember that men were the ones who wrote it. They had occasional slip-ups in wording, such as the humorous addendum of "Demas too" at Colossians 4:14.
Really? Revelation 17 says the words "Catholic Church" in it?
If not, you are guilty of making a private interpretation of prophecies of Scripture (2 Peter 1:20) and you are sinning.
Don't worry, you can be forgiven if you confess your sins to another (James 5:16), specifically one whom Christ ordained to the office (John 20:23) and one who carries out the ministry of reconciliation as an ambassador of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:18-20).
I thought that Satan knew Scripture well...Guess I was wrong.
Yes, they were representatives of the Church, and poor ones at that.
You could say that the men who burned heretics were poor witnesses to the Catholic faith just as Jack Schaap was (hopefully) a bad witness to the Baptist faith.
It is unfortunate that men in places of authority are bad at their jobs, but it happens. Prayer can ease our pains, but forgiveness of them is necessary first.
Remember not to throw the first stone until you have no sin within you.
I understand that the masculine/feminie differentiation of petra and petros sets you off, but keep in mind that the noun gender change was necessary as Simon was a man and would be rather embarassed if Christ gave him a feminine name!
Further, Christ didn't speak Greek in the first place, He would have said" You are Kephas and on this kephas [rock] I will build my church."
Matt. 16:18 is not my only justification. Who did Jesus ask to watch his flock in John 21:15-17?None other than St. Peter.
You don't understand what the word heretic means. The Catholic scientists who proposed new theories were ridiculed by ALL of their contemporary society. The equivalent of Copernicus (a Catholic priest) positing his theory at that time would be like someone proposing gravity is caused by invisible strings between all matter. It would sound ridiculous in the face of current sciences, just as his theory did.
By the way, the Church never did that. Individuals within the Church did. Huge difference.
Dead rituals? Oh, you mean like the ones by which you unite yourself to the Body of Christ that is the Church of true believers?
Who are you to say whether or not they have repented? Have you met every one of them personally and asked them if they have repented?
I'm glad you have been born again. I was born again by water and the Holy Spirit 17 years ago at my baptism.
I hope that some day you will realize your mistake in leaving truth in favor of an easy plan of salvation.
St. Jerome used the Greek, Hebrew, and possibly Aramaic texts to put together the Latin Vulgate.
What Egyptian texts are you referring to? I don't think St. Jerome knew hieroglyphics...
The Book of Enoch is alluded to in Jude 1:14, but it was never added to the official canon of Scripture because the Hebrews did not accept it as inspired in the Old Testament era. The Church, when standardizing the canon, did not think it expedient to add a sense of inspiration to it that was not there prior.
Was EVERY word that Jesus spoke necessarily literal?
Do you truly hate your mother, father, and your own life? (Lk 14:26)
And, I'm sure you're an advocate of the nonliteral meaning of Matt 26:26-28.
But, with regard to the original point, was St. Paul condemned because he called Abraham his father? (Rom 4:12, 16)
Finally, what do you call your own father? Papa, Pop, Dad, etc. all mean the same thing, so don't think you can gloss over Matt. 23:9 just by not using the exact word "father."
Yes, I am rather upset that men sin.
Unfortunately, the Church has not always had as great men as St. Peter to run it (though even he denied Jesus thrice!). I posit Alexander VI, Formosus, etc.
Nevertheless, the FACT that men sin does not turn me away from the Church that Christ founded.
The Church needs a Pope for the same reason the Hebrews needed a king, they would be lost in anarchy if they tried to establish a pure theocracy.
MAYBE a nice thought, but it's simply not even feasible.
The Church is the Body of Christ and the very "pillar and foundation of truth." If you wish to speak against it, be my guest. Heretics have been doing that for 2000 years now.
If you wish to speak against the men in it who have been admittedly far from perfect, do so, but remember Christ's teaching on casting the first stone.
True, a disgusting number of Catholic (as well as Protestant) clergy have committed sexual sin. However, speaking bad about them will solve nothing.
Rather, pray for them.
The Catholic Church IS the Church of Christ, plain and simple and has the Divine guarantee that the gates of hell shall not prevail. If at any point in history the Catholic Church ceased being the Church that Christ founded then God's promises to the Church have failed and the gates of hell have prevailed.
What you refer to as 'a perversion of biblical principles' is your perception. The authority to teach in His name never left the Church and the Church continues this mission.
Catholic com
You missed the point: The original twelve consisted of sinners (one grievously so) and so if you're going to condemn the Church today based on the fact that there's some members who don't want to follow the teachings of Christ then you must equally apply that principle throughout all history.
You don't judge a medicine by those who refuse to take it, do you? Nor should you judge the Church by the actions of those who do not follow it's teachings.
Peace be upon you
Who is Christ Jesus ?
1- The god 2- The son of The god 3- The god and Theson in some
4- The messenger of The god Allah
look at the book " The bible " what can we see
Jesus said to His The god
*- [Van Dyke] [Jn.17.3]
And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.
Jesus Christ is The messenger of The god Allah
You can look in Rev 12 to start. Obviously the Antichrist will rise up against the Church.
Perhaps you would like to name a scripture contradiction and be more specific as to what you're referring to as innocent blood? Are you scandalized by sinful members in the Church? How are you then not scandalized by Christianity in general (assuming you're protestant) since there were sinful members to begin with; one of the original 12 betrayed Christ?
What religion (or lack of) are you coming from? God in the O.T. ordered thousands to be killed (ie. book of Exodus etc.) And St. Peter pronounces the death sentence to Ananias's wife in Acts:5. The death penalty is clearly established in the Bible as legitimate.
Concerning "millions" killed during the inquisition it has been demonstrated that there maybe a few thousands over the course of 300 years but they were justified under religious and state law.
I think it was the Persians which invented crucifixion so the cross wouldn't be a "pagan symbol" from the Romans but I don't see the relevance of that seeing how Christ saw fit to use the cross as the means of His death - pagan origins or not.
The cross has become an easily recognized symbol of our redemption and the early Christians made use of the symbol quite regularly as there is an overwhelming use of it in the catacombs as well as the early practice of making the 'sign of the cross.'
Like I said - no Catholic follows a cross (your words). We follow the Church established by Christ. The cross was the instrument chosen by Christ to effect the redemption and He makes use of the *mental imagery* of the cross throughout His preaching (like when He tells us to take up our crosses daily etc.) as well as St. Paul. Search the NT usage of the word 'cross' and you will see that it is used throughout.
I don't know of a single Catholic who follows a symbol. The Catholic Church was founded by Christ Mt16:18 and History bears this out. When Christ ascended into Heaven He didn't give the Apostles Bibles and tell them to hand them out and let everyone pick and choose what they want to believe. No, He established a Church which has the power to teach in His name, to bind and to loose and he who does not want to hear the Church let him be to thee as a Heathen and a publican.
The verses you gave don't even say the word priest anywhere in them. Yes, of course I agree with private prayer, as do all genuine Catholics. Indeed, living the Lord's Prayer is even more important than saying the words. I agree. However, did He ever say you were forbidden from repeating Scripture? Last time I checked, He used Scripture as prayer many times.
Well, I don't ever want to outright ignore somebody's mistaken comments, because maybe, just MAYBE, they'll show a little common sense and see where they went wrong if I can help to point them in the right direction.
However, in accordance with Titus 3:10, "after the first and second admonition" I will "avoid" the "heretic".
+AMDG+
just remember everyone the true Jesus Christ of light for Christianity have's a twin brother so the questions is who they so call this Christ are they talking about just remember the anti-Christ could be that false prophet they talking call their Jesus Christ maybe im wrong i dont know so yea maybe one of the other i could be right or wrong
You're not free to come up with your own doctrine concerning the Trinity. It is 3 persons in one being - all of them being equally God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This is part of Divine Revelation and has been infallibly taught by the Church since the beginning. Any teaching that is contrary is heretical.
'Holy Father' is a term used to describe the office not the person. Sure there has been a few unholy Popes just as there was an unholy Apostle. To say that no one is holy except Jesus is not true since Christ calls us all to be holy and St. Paul refers to the Apostles as Holy (Eph 3:5) - which is what the Pope is - a successor of St. Peter.
Did I ever say that Christians do not have direct access to God? You seem to be putting words in my mouth.
Every Christian still has direct access to God. I don't see your point because you based it on an argument I never made. That would be called a "strawman".
Where in the Bible does it say that we must make such substitutions? I assume you are operating under the heresy of sola scriptura, so you can only quote Scripture in support of your statement. Remember, no private interpretations are allowed here (2 Peter 1:20).
+AMDG+
They encourage them to not slaughter the human beings that they give life to because they cannot control their lustful impulses. Big difference.
I know it's not hard to do such, you simply are talking down on a charity organization, not a criminal organization.
Many other religions don't believe in this either. Judaism, Islam are of the few. Why don't you ask them to change their doctrine? Why focus on Catholicism? Before you go lambasting my Church to change (and it won't), how about you ask those that behead heretics to change as well :\
The Blessed Trinity is clearly established in the Bible and taught authoritatively in the Bible. Christ taught to baptize in the *name* of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There are numerous instances of God revealing Himself as a Trinity. It is one of the core beliefs of Christianity.
Dear Cardinal Arinze, please Sir. I have a very high concerns regards the appointment of Pa Pete Edochie, who was appointed as KNIGHTS in Catholic Church. But this man is NOT a Christian. He is into cultic x 10. ETC.
PETE EDOCHIE last born (YUL) married to a very strong Catholic member lady (MARY). Pete Edochie son had 2nd wife with two children, and 3rd wife with son. So the 1st wife said, l can be number with any woman. Pete Edochie had made the 1st wife hell on earth. And refused to give the first wife her PROPERTIES given to her by her late parents. Etc. Sir please help MARY, Pete Edochie want to kpai this lady.
If the Catholic Church look into this case, URGENTLY. There are so many things l can not say here.
IF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WOULD PLEASE LOOK INTO TH-cam regards this report.
THIS IS INCIDENT IS HAPPENING NTEJE, IN ANAMBRA STATE in South East.
oh so you're saying everything that has to do with God is one on one? that people in heaven don't do anything? You're wrong.
Jesus is salvation of course. The Body of Christ is united in Him, that is why heaven transcends time and space and why people are able to ask for intersession from each other. Why did Jesus tell his apostles, "stay up and pray with me" if they're not allowed to pray in heaven? They do pray in heaven, in fact, it's in Revelations chapter 5.
Trust in God who gave YOU the
BE CAREFUL THAT NO ONE DECEIVES YOU. MATTHEW 24 - 5 For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and they will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; Take care that you are not troubled, because all this must happen; but it's not the end yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in different places. 8 And all this will be the beginning of sorrows.
No. I want people to make their own choice to believe or not. If you don't like people enforcing beliefs on you, don't enforce the belief of no religion in general on them. Peace.

Words of wisdom..."The Holy Spirit doesn't go on holidays" awesome... stay blessed Cardinal Francis Arinze 🙏🙏🙏
You're foolish in your actions. You call people swears. Jesus said not to hate your enemies, yet to love your enemies. Love is kind. You are not kind.
the catholic church are middle men, pay the salaries, pope mobiles, cardinals villas, gold robes, and if theres any loose change give a bit to charity (with strings attatched)
