These times were made for saints. We were born for these times and God expects us to "get it together" spiritually and in the other areas of our lives...health, preparedness, our families, etc. It is an all-out war that is coming: spiritually and physically. Learn who your enemies are.

When the Pandemic hit in California and the Governor shut everything down, i was devastated when we couldn't receive the Eucharist for months and months. I ended up walking out of the parish i was part of, because i felt that our Priest was bowing down too much to the hype of the governor, and wasn't doing anything to make sure we received Jesus. Then i went to my former faith community, the Oblates of St. Joseph Shrine near me, and low and behold the Provential Priest there had managed to get the people there to contribute to these two huge covered tents, and folding chairs, and he had daily confession and Holy Mass Every week, rain, cold, wind or shine, and brought us the greatest gift we could recieve... the Holy Eucharist. I can't imagine this happening again. Yet this video talk by Fr. Rippberger is so very helpful, and i am deeply grateful. Jesus said: If you Stand firm in the faith until the end, you will be saved.

I’m in California and the same thing happened to us! We left our parish which you had to wear a mask and even sign up if you wanted to attend (for contact tracing) We found a small parish that held Mass next door to their church in a park. We attended in the extreme heat, rain or shine. We were such a close community. The priest had kneelers and encouraged everyone to receive kneeling and on the tongue. I miss those days.
@@mrs.h3779, Yes, in a way I miss them too, because there was usually only standing room left, outside in the gardens, because so many people came to attend. ❤
From the way Father Ripperger, I am afraid it is going to be worse than COVID. Imagine where the priest will be jailed/persecuted. It is going on in China, Middle East, Nicaraguan, and etc… pray for them and hope that it won’t happen in the US.
Read Bso. Athanasius Schneider’s book, Christi Vivcit chapter 1 in which he describes his own experience under Communism with his family as they were denied Mass, access to a priest. He describes his deep closeness to Our Lord through Spiritual Communions.
Nothing stops you from saying the rosary. Even if you don't own one. If all the physical sacrament went away, it doesn't change your faith, or it shouldn't
Pray, pray, pray. Pray the rosary with Father Riperger! Attend any and every mass that you can. Stay in a state of grace! Catholic men, please join the Knights Of Columbus.
It occurs to me that many a saint in past times has gone long periods with no priest available. But somehow they lived a holy life and died in sanctity. So I think we need to keep in mind that God's mercy is indeed limitless, if we ask for it and sincerely strive for holiness. There were some absolutely beautiful photos shown during this video - Thank you!
1) daily spiritual communion 2) learn emergency baptism (Padre Peregrino had a good video in explaining it) 3) prep physically, get some supplies/food but don't go crazy if you don't have the means 4) say an act of contrition after you have committed venial sin...do daily examination of conscience 5) don't commit mortal sin 6) rosary and devotions 7) start practicing small suffering now....accept a long stoplight or grocery line, do some fasting....sorry if I missed anything
Dear God, make us all prudent, humble, and wise to face all trials that are ahead of us. Praise the Lord for fr. Ripperger. Saint Michael the Archangel, we beg you for your protection and guidance. Amen.❤
My TH-cam choice for tonight - Fr. Ripperger vs. Jordan Peterson, Bishop Barron and Fr. Mike Schmitz - I choose Fr. Ripperger! Thank you for saving my soul Father. 🙏🙏🙏
@@mirandamarie84 I actually personally met him and Tucker in Calgary a couple of weeks ago. I just feel that he is wrestling with his intellect and submission to God with the help of Tammy he will get there in the end. Also he has been under an enormous amount of stress since 2017. But still would rather listen to Fr. Ripperger (sorry Jordan). Haven’t actually watched the panel discussion yet it is on my list.
Over the last 5 years, I’ve been promoted to gather books for nurturing my faith. Why? Perhaps for these times. P.S. "Promoted" was the wrong word choice. Must have been tired.
TYVM! I have been “seeing” an Armageddon for over a year now. Our Lord is offended. We must come back to Him. We must call on the army of Heaven to help us.
In 1935, St. Faustina received a vision of an angel sent by God to chastise a certain city. She began to pray for mercy, but her prayers were powerless. Suddenly she saw the Holy Trinity and felt the power of Jesus’ grace within her. At the same time she found herself pleading with God for mercy with words she heard interiorly: Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world; for the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us. (Diary, 475) As she continued saying this inspired prayer, the angel became helpless and could not carry out the deserved punishment (see 474). The next day, as she was entering the chapel, she again heard this interior voice, instructing her how to recite the prayer that our Lord later called "the Chaplet." This time, after "have mercy on us" were added the words "and on the whole world" (476). From then on, she recited this form of prayer almost constantly, offering it especially for the dying.
You are right Father about perfect contrition! I have been praying for perfect contrition for years and have not been graced with it. Its not a prayer formula that we can just say and all is good. Perfect contrtion is truly a gift from God.
My son who was a very premature birth was baptized twice, by Catholic priests. Once in the NICU and then again in the church in the formal baptism. Praying that this is ok!!
Agh.. I baptized my son when he was an infant. He is adopted and I called the church and they wouldn’t Baptize him until the adoption was final. So as not to potentially cause a problem. I was heart broken and my mother said you can baptize him until we can have his actually baptism. So that’s what I did??? I hope I didn’t make a mistake!! He was formally baptized by the church once the adoption was all done and closed but yes,, I did my best and I baptized my son when he was a baby for his safety is why I did it..
You did right. But, if you have anxiety about it, find a good, holy, faithful, obedient and knowledgeable Catholic Priest and make an appointment to discuss it. Confession is still very important; but the Priest can advise you better outside of the Sacrament of Reconciliation/Penance/Confession. God Bless you 🙏❤🕊✝️⛪
You did your best...with the knowledge and understanding you had at the time...trust in God in all things - He is faithful! If you used the correct matter and form and valid intentions, then your child was validly baptized. All you need to do - I believe - is meet with your parish priest to explain the date, place and reason for the emergency baptism. From what you've said here - you have no moral culpability as far as sin.
He was in fact formerly baptized into the Catholic Church after the adoption became valid when he was just over a year old.. yah sometimes it takes awhile..
Thank you for this spiritual toolkit as we begin to prepare for a very difficult chapter ahead in Church history. It honestly made me weep as I watched, feeling the desolation that comes with not having access to the sacraments that we all take for granted - weddings, baptisms, mass, confession, extreme unction. This is what the people of Ireland endured during the time of Cromwell's suppression of the Church, and I assume happened in 1780s during the French Revolution, in China, and wherever the Church was suppressed. In the turmoil of the past year in the Church AND global political events this information is feeling very much like spiritual direction for Catholics who recognize the reality of the situation. Thank you, Fr Ripperger,
Thank you, I truly needed to see your comment. Lately I've been impelled to go to the sick/dying. I'm no Priest, but I am a child of GOD & can't stand before the Holy Sacrament with empty hands anymore !!!
Not necessarily, since the Internet allows us to have, at the very least, a glimpse or sense of the level of malfeasence and evil existing in our time. The truth is easily accessible, yet obscured by much distraction, distortion and obsfucation, by much of the present media machine.
Thank you Father Ripperger for this very informative video about the Sacraments which is very much needed during this tumultuous times in our Churches and in the world. Your video is being forwarded to other people and is saved to listen again. One more time Thank you 🙏
We must learn from our Japanese and English brethern as they had to endure terrible persecution and were regularly unable to have any sacraments, rosaries, scripture, or worship. We as Christians are a flower that grows under stress
Courage will be so needed.. as it was for the Martyrs! If we love God tenderly every day ..and ask Him to give us whatever we will need to carry out His will ..He will most certainly be with us as he was with the three men in the fiery furnace and every Martyr .. We have to make the most of every day while we are still able,to grow closer to Him,Our Lady and the Saints..and Angels.. and keep our eyes on HOME
Living and praying in the Divine Will are also good. Mary through the visionaries has said we need to establish a close relationship with ALL the Angels for this time coming, pray the Chaplet of St. Michael daily. Excellent talk Father, we really needed this as I like others were wondering what exactly do we do as we will not have been through this before here in the US, not like Communism. Any other prepatory talks will certainly be welcomed. Thank you for taking the time to get us up to speed. God Bless! 😇🙏💕
Remember the promises of the Rosary and the Brown Scapular. I say, very humbly, develop absolute confidence in Mary! With the Rosary, we're assured that if we pray daily, Our Lady will ensure we get the sacraments before dying or at least obtain the grace of final perseverance. That is one of the 15 promises. And The Brown Scapular's Sabbatine Privilege means Mary will intercede to free us from Purgatory quickly if we've lived up to that devotion's conditions. As I understand it, Her help in the hour of death is guaranteed. Nothing replaces sacraments! Yet these special devotions are like spiritual lifelines in desperate times. They tap into the Church's teachings on God's mercy, the communion of saints, and Our Lady's roles. Staying faithful to them helps me trust that even without access to a priest, God's grace can still reach us extraordinarily through Mary's hands. And Fr. Ripperger has been invaluable to me. His books are essential. (Check out Dominion if you have not.) Ave Maria! 📿
@@bradleyjones7391Read in John about the wedding of Cana. Mary was the one who asked Jesus to perform his first miracle. Jesus said,”Woman, what is that to me and to thee? my hour is not yet come.” Then Mary said to the servers, “Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.” Then he performed his first miracle and started his ministry. The point is, he listens to his mother, and she can intercede for you. Can you go straight to Jesus, obviously yes. But the prayers of the righteous availeth much, and there is no human creature that has existed more righteous than Mary! Who is he going to respect a request from more? You, or the most holy human to ever live?
@@bradleyjones7391it's the graces of Jesus on the cross conferred through Mary. We do not think Mary has any power of Her own, only the power given Her by Her Son. Please at least know what our theology is before criticizing it.
I know that things will only get worse from here on, so I've been asking myself a lot lately - what will I do to get absolution from my sins when the persecution to the Church tightens - when Churches close, when priests either leave their vocations or have to go into hiding or captivity. How will we go about confessing our sins and be forgiven? Because by then we will certainly be without the Eucharist, unfortunately.
Search online for a PDF version of "Perfect Contrition: The Golden Key to Paradise." It will suffice if you find yourself without a priest in the lead up to or during the reign of the antichrist.
There is a " Sacramental " called the Pardon cross. Search for it online, and get a Latin Mass Priest to bless it. The cross will come with a Prayer, which you need to say if you're near death. This only works when a Priest is not available. It was recommended by Pope Pius X. Your sins will then be forgiven. God bless you 🙏
When Fr. R talks about Fortitude, the image that comes to mind is Rocky Balboa...going 12 rounds and sustaining blow after blow, after blow. Lol. The blows coming for us are going to be much worse, but fasting and moritifcation now are certainly key because they're effectively "preliminary rounds" of suffering to develop our pain tolerance for what's coming. God bless.
Can't hear the people's questions Father - I do wish you would repeat their questions so we can know what is being asked and answered. Thank you for your teaching.
My mother and I recently had Covid. When I called our pastor and asked if someone could bring the holy Eucharist to our home I was told that he didn't feel comfortable asking anyone to do so. He then suggested that I notify him when we were cleared by our doctor.
The idea of no sacraments ... I will be at a loss, save for the love of Christ. Pray pray pray, and prepare. Trust in Christ. War' about to come, spiritually, physically ... its scarier, but Christ has already won the victory.
I do not want to punish aching mankind, I desire to heal it, pressing it to My Merciful Heart. I use punishment when they themselves force Me to do so; My hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice. (Diary, 1588) of st faustina
Dear fr Ripperger, I am not a Catholic but a Christian Orthodox. Even so I often offer my sufferings to Our Lady for the sake of pope Francisc to the best of my poor ability. Today I trust she has shown me the pope as a great fire which brings the Light to the entire church and I was left with a strong conviction that his level of Holiness is not something I will ever comprehend. I know she loves him in a different manner then any of us. I need you to know that no "draconian" thing can be born from such a fire of God. Father please bless my weak soul.
That is a great question I've been having trouble with lately. Here in Brazil we almost don't have T.M, it's mostly Novus Ordo. And since the priests in the different parishes have become aware I prefer Catholicism prior to Second Vatican Council II it's been tough on me to get to confession. Also they have been pushing forward in ways to dessacrate even the Novus Ordo like putting the Eucharist Minister to lead Mass, and the priest will be absent.
Father is right that there will be temptation to distraction during chastisement, as it says in scripture. "I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted" Psalm 88:15
As I believe Padre Pio said we could live without the sun better than we could live without their eucharist. And we can't live without the sun so ... what to do?
This is heart breaking, i now we have to be atrong and accept Gods will but im already suffering with the collaps of america i pray God delivers us from such horrendous times but i dont think my prayers matter 😏 Father im so afraid and i can't bear to see my small children suffer 😭💔 God forgive me because im weak 🫤😪
Aux archbishop Schneider was writing in his book Christus Vincit about his own parents' situation that when they were getting married in former Russia under Stalin, there was no priest available, and they were married without a priest, in the presence of two witnesses they spoke their vows according to the Rite of the Church. So even the Sacrament of marriage is possible. At that time they would see a priest once or twice a year, sometimes not even for a whole year. And when the priest came, he had to hold Mass in secret and hear hundreds of confessions under the same precarious conditions. That if he was caught, the faithful would have been left without a priest for half a century. So if he had had to hold weddings as well, he wouldn't have been able to hear confessions.... And then in Japan there were no priests for 2 hundred years, and yet the Catholic faith survived. So there must have been providence for the Sacrament of marriage, otherwise no Catholic offspring would have been able to live beyond half a century....
@@CatholicWhisper However, as long as we have access to a priest and the access of sacraments, we must avail ourselves to the norm (Mass on Sunday and confessing mortal sin in confession) as well as all the other sacraments we need. God may not be bound by any grace through any sacrament, but we are obliged to follow the norms of the Catholic Church, which Jesus Christ instituted for us!
My cousin died recently in Zephrhills and the local priest would not come. I never heard of that before. The priests said it was too late! They also have confessions at 8AM on Saturdays. Sounds like they can't be bothered with the Sacraments!
very good reminder of how we should be living everyday. As for marriage, I've always read that it is one of the two sacraments that can be performed without the clergy in an emergency.
Where on earth did you read that, I have never ever read that anywhere in my 66 years, but if I have missed something please reference where I can find it.
The fact that Fr. Ripperger is giving a talk about this, it is telling me that the time is getting nearer. He is preparing us already. Pray.
That's exactly what I thought! Pray!

After seeing what took place at St Patrick's Cathedral on Thursday this is expected to happen. Repent Pray, make Reparations
What happened?
“Thursday, pews at the historic Catholic church were packed with mourners for Gentili, who at one time professed to be an atheist in her off-Broadway show. Many Catholics have expressed outrage, saying the funeral made a mockery of the faith, including by some of the language used during eulogies.”
There was a eulogy which Catholics don't allow, using words such as whore and so much more
That was so horrific, I stop watching it right away, I couldn't believe why they allowed this to happen ,
Boy, is that the truth! What a horrific event at St. Patrick's Cathedral. What a mess. So, yes, we are in for a very rough ride.
Thank you, Fr.

I’m in California and the same thing happened to us! We left our parish which you had to wear a mask and even sign up if you wanted to attend (for contact tracing) We found a small parish that held Mass next door to their church in a park. We attended in the extreme heat, rain or shine. We were such a close community. The priest had kneelers and encouraged everyone to receive kneeling and on the tongue. I miss those days.
@@mrs.h3779,
Yes, in a way I miss them too, because there was usually only standing room left, outside in the gardens, because so many people came to attend.
❤
From the way Father Ripperger, I am afraid it is going to be worse than COVID. Imagine where the priest will be jailed/persecuted. It is going on in China, Middle East, Nicaraguan, and etc… pray for them and hope that it won’t happen in the US.
Keep in mind that God is purifying and putting things back in order all leading to beauty and peace...pure holiness and love.
FATHER RIPPERGER,THANKS FOR THE SPIRITUAL GUIDANCE...GOD HELP US.
Read Bso. Athanasius Schneider’s book, Christi Vivcit chapter 1 in which he describes his own experience under Communism with his family as they were denied Mass, access to a priest. He describes his deep closeness to Our Lord through Spiritual Communions.
Nothing stops you from saying the rosary. Even if you don't own one. If all the physical sacrament went away, it doesn't change your faith, or it shouldn't
Pray, pray, pray. Pray the rosary with Father Riperger! Attend any and every mass that you can. Stay in a state of grace! Catholic men, please join the Knights Of Columbus.
It occurs to me that many a saint in past times has gone long periods with no priest available. But somehow they lived a holy life and died in sanctity. So I think we need to keep in mind that God's mercy is indeed limitless, if we ask for it and sincerely strive for holiness. There were some absolutely beautiful photos shown during this video - Thank you!
Please make this a pamphlet for people to download and print
Good idea
Please don’t!
@@CatholicWhisperwhy?
1) daily spiritual communion 2) learn emergency baptism (Padre Peregrino had a good video in explaining it) 3) prep physically, get some supplies/food but don't go crazy if you don't have the means 4) say an act of contrition after you have committed venial sin...do daily examination of conscience 5) don't commit mortal sin 6) rosary and devotions 7) start practicing small suffering now....accept a long stoplight or grocery line, do some fasting....sorry if I missed anything
@@MW-he4cp I thought he said to do acts of penance/contrition after venial sins, not just vocal prayers…
God is watching and won't let His Church be destroyed
Dear God, make us all prudent, humble, and wise to face all trials that are ahead of us. Praise the Lord for fr. Ripperger. Saint Michael the Archangel, we beg you for your protection and guidance. Amen.❤
My TH-cam choice for tonight - Fr. Ripperger vs. Jordan Peterson, Bishop Barron and Fr. Mike Schmitz - I choose Fr. Ripperger! Thank you for saving my soul Father. 🙏🙏🙏
Jordan Peterson should be taken off the list lol. I don’t trust that guy.
@@mirandamarie84 I actually personally met him and Tucker in Calgary a couple of weeks ago. I just feel that he is wrestling with his intellect and submission to God with the help of Tammy he will get there in the end. Also he has been under an enormous amount of stress since 2017. But still would rather listen to Fr. Ripperger (sorry Jordan). Haven’t actually watched the panel discussion yet it is on my list.
Unfortunately Tucker is controlled opp. Owned by the Talmudic bankers
Where can this be located. Thank you
Should watch them all!
Make sure to wear brown scapular as long as possible every day. I try to only have it off in the shower since i don't want to get it wet.
It'll dry quickly or have two, new one for wearing always, older worn one for washing.
I wash in shower while it's on and it dries very quickly!
It's not as if the graces aren't there if you aren't wearing it in the shower. The Carmelite order has even said this.
I wear mine in the shower. Dry myself off, put a new Scapular on and hang up the wet Scapular to dry.
Father Issac Mary Relyea mentioned put on an old scapular for the shower. That way you're protected at all times.
Over the last 5 years, I’ve been promoted to gather books for nurturing my faith. Why? Perhaps for these times.
P.S. "Promoted" was the wrong word choice. Must have been tired.
I have been doing the same thing we have to know our Catholic Faith in these times so we don’t fall into false teachings
As have I.
Me too
Same here. I've learnt from them what is taught no longer by the Church and the priests.
Me too. Just found a lovely used Baltimore Catechism.
Lord, help me to not lose my faith in the face of my enemies.
Pray pray pray. We need much prayer to have the courage needed for upcoming times.
TYVM! I have been “seeing” an Armageddon for over a year now. Our Lord is offended. We must come back to Him. We must call on the army of Heaven to help us.
❤✝️Thank you for all this Priesthood is helping us 🙏❤️ Prayer for all faithful Priesthood
I say the Holy Rosary every day. Plus the Chaplet of Divine Rosary.
Man, I believe he hit the nail on the head here. Seems like the Holy Ghost is speaking right through Father.
In 1935, St. Faustina received a vision of an angel sent by God to chastise a certain city. She began to pray for mercy, but her prayers were powerless. Suddenly she saw the Holy Trinity and felt the power of Jesus’ grace within her. At the same time she found herself pleading with God for mercy with words she heard interiorly:
Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world; for the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us. (Diary, 475)
As she continued saying this inspired prayer, the angel became helpless and could not carry out the deserved punishment (see 474). The next day, as she was entering the chapel, she again heard this interior voice, instructing her how to recite the prayer that our Lord later called "the Chaplet." This time, after "have mercy on us" were added the words "and on the whole world" (476). From then on, she recited this form of prayer almost constantly, offering it especially for the dying.
Part of the chaplet
PRAY, PRAY, PRAY FOR THE TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST !!!!
They just don’t get it. So sad. Jesus please love them and forgive them they do not know what they do.
@@bradleyjones7391,
Tell us then please...what don't they get?
You are right Father about perfect contrition! I have been praying for perfect contrition for years and have not been graced with it. Its not a prayer formula that we can just say and all is good. Perfect contrtion is truly a gift from God.
You don't know that you don't have perfect contrition.
My son who was a very premature birth was baptized twice, by Catholic priests. Once in the NICU and then again in the church in the formal baptism. Praying that this is ok!!
Yes it is
@@seemashalini4187 No, you can't be baptize twice. It is in the Catechism of the Catholic church.
@@euchariambachu2543and?
Agh.. I baptized my son when he was an infant. He is adopted and I called the church and they wouldn’t Baptize him until the adoption was final. So as not to potentially cause a problem. I was heart broken and my mother said you can baptize him until we can have his actually baptism. So that’s what I did??? I hope I didn’t make a mistake!! He was formally baptized by the church once the adoption was all done and closed but yes,, I did my best and I baptized my son when he was a baby for his safety is why I did it..
I wouldn't be worried about sinning mortally if I did that, since you did not know it is a mortal sin.
Even a heretic or a pagan can baptize a person. in an emergency.
You did right.
But, if you have anxiety about it, find a good, holy, faithful, obedient and knowledgeable Catholic Priest and make an appointment to discuss it.
Confession is still very important; but the Priest can advise you better outside of the Sacrament of Reconciliation/Penance/Confession.
God Bless you 🙏❤🕊✝️⛪
You did your best...with the knowledge and understanding you had at the time...trust in God in all things - He is faithful! If you used the correct matter and form and valid intentions, then your child was validly baptized. All you need to do - I believe - is meet with your parish priest to explain the date, place and reason for the emergency baptism. From what you've said here - you have no moral culpability as far as sin.
He was in fact formerly baptized into the Catholic Church after the adoption became valid when he was just over a year old.. yah sometimes it takes awhile..
Thank God I baptized all three of my kids as an emergency in the hospital!
My priest told me to keep praying for my sons, as well as my daughter and to not ever give up
❤People dont really think this is going to happen..
God Will be with us. Hard times is the spyglass God uses to get to know the heart of men❤
This is a valuable critique for the preparedness of the future chastisement
Thank you for this spiritual toolkit as we begin to prepare for a very difficult chapter ahead in Church history. It honestly made me weep as I watched, feeling the desolation that comes with not having access to the sacraments that we all take for granted - weddings, baptisms, mass, confession, extreme unction. This is what the people of Ireland endured during the time of Cromwell's suppression of the Church, and I assume happened in 1780s during the French Revolution, in China, and wherever the Church was suppressed. In the turmoil of the past year in the Church AND global political events this information is feeling very much like spiritual direction for Catholics who recognize the reality of the situation. Thank you, Fr Ripperger,
Lord God help me to carry my cross🙏🏻❤️
A brilliant summary of what lies ahead ! Thank you and God bless and protect you Father.
Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
I was in the ER twice this week, I called for a priest more than once, and had no answer.
May God Bless and Heal you of your ailments.
Thank you, I truly needed to see your comment. Lately I've been impelled to go to the sick/dying. I'm no Priest, but I am a child of GOD & can't stand before the Holy Sacrament with empty hands anymore !!!
Pray for more good and holy priests to fill seminaries
Call your priest before going to ER
Not surprising
Fr. Ripp is Gold and whatever he said should not be taken with a grain of salt
Totally agree that we don’t know the amount of moral corruption that is really present in this world.
Not necessarily, since the Internet allows us to have, at the very least, a glimpse or sense of the level of malfeasence and evil existing in our time. The truth is easily accessible, yet obscured by much distraction, distortion and obsfucation, by much of the present media machine.
You said it perfectly! We must all strive to be in the state of Grace at all times, because we do not know the hour!
Thank you Father Ripperger for this very informative video about the Sacraments which is very much needed during this tumultuous times in our Churches and in the world. Your video is being forwarded to other people and is saved to listen again. One more time Thank you 🙏
Father please consider writing a book with all of this info in it….😊
May God continue to Bless you in all that you do. 🙏
We must learn from our Japanese and English brethern as they had to endure terrible persecution and were regularly unable to have any sacraments, rosaries, scripture, or worship. We as Christians are a flower that grows under stress
Thank you Fr Ripperger! Your guidance is truly appreciated and needed. Keep ‘em coming!🙏🏻✝️
Courage will be so needed.. as it was for the Martyrs! If we love God tenderly every day ..and ask Him to give us whatever we will need to carry out His will ..He will most certainly be with us as he was with the three men in the fiery furnace and every Martyr .. We have to make the most of every day while we are still able,to grow closer to Him,Our Lady and the Saints..and Angels.. and keep our eyes on HOME
Living and praying in the Divine Will are also good. Mary through the visionaries has said we need to establish a close relationship with ALL the Angels for this time coming, pray the Chaplet of St. Michael daily. Excellent talk Father, we really needed this as I like others were wondering what exactly do we do as we will not have been through this before here in the US, not like Communism. Any other prepatory talks will certainly be welcomed. Thank you for taking the time to get us up to speed. God Bless! 😇🙏💕
This has been on my mind a lot, lately. Thank you, Father.
Thank you to this Holy Priest Father Ripperger We need more Priest like him! May God Bless you Father 🙏✝️❤️
Found this extremely helpful. Thank you, Father and team. God bless you, Mary love you! Ave Maria.
Remember the promises of the Rosary and the Brown Scapular. I say, very humbly, develop absolute confidence in Mary! With the Rosary, we're assured that if we pray daily, Our Lady will ensure we get the sacraments before dying or at least obtain the grace of final perseverance. That is one of the 15 promises. And The Brown Scapular's Sabbatine Privilege means Mary will intercede to free us from Purgatory quickly if we've lived up to that devotion's conditions. As I understand it, Her help in the hour of death is guaranteed.
Nothing replaces sacraments! Yet these special devotions are like spiritual lifelines in desperate times. They tap into the Church's teachings on God's mercy, the communion of saints, and Our Lady's roles. Staying faithful to them helps me trust that even without access to a priest, God's grace can still reach us extraordinarily through Mary's hands. And Fr. Ripperger has been invaluable to me. His books are essential. (Check out Dominion if you have not.) Ave Maria! 📿
Do you hear yourself? Mary. JESUS DIED FOR YOU! Not her
@@bradleyjones7391Read in John about the wedding of Cana. Mary was the one who asked Jesus to perform his first miracle. Jesus said,”Woman, what is that to me and to thee? my hour is not yet come.” Then Mary said to the servers, “Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.” Then he performed his first miracle and started his ministry. The point is, he listens to his mother, and she can intercede for you. Can you go straight to Jesus, obviously yes. But the prayers of the righteous availeth much, and there is no human creature that has existed more righteous than Mary! Who is he going to respect a request from more? You, or the most holy human to ever live?
@@bradleyjones7391 Protestantism is heresy from hell
Also the promises of the five first Saturdays
@@bradleyjones7391it's the graces of Jesus on the cross conferred through Mary. We do not think Mary has any power of Her own, only the power given Her by Her Son. Please at least know what our theology is before criticizing it.
I know that things will only get worse from here on, so I've been asking myself a lot lately - what will I do to get absolution from my sins when the persecution to the Church tightens - when Churches close, when priests either leave their vocations or have to go into hiding or captivity. How will we go about confessing our sins and be forgiven? Because by then we will certainly be without the Eucharist, unfortunately.
Search online for a PDF version of "Perfect Contrition: The Golden Key to Paradise." It will suffice if you find yourself without a priest in the lead up to or during the reign of the antichrist.
There is a " Sacramental " called the Pardon cross. Search for it online, and get a Latin Mass Priest to bless it. The cross will come with a Prayer, which you need to say if you're near death. This only works when a Priest is not available. It was recommended by Pope Pius X.
Your sins will then be forgiven. God bless you 🙏
Devotion to The Holy Face. Present The Holy Face to the Father to obtain mercy.
When Fr. R talks about Fortitude, the image that comes to mind is Rocky Balboa...going 12 rounds and sustaining blow after blow, after blow. Lol. The blows coming for us are going to be much worse, but fasting and moritifcation now are certainly key because they're effectively "preliminary rounds" of suffering to develop our pain tolerance for what's coming. God bless.
Can't hear the people's questions Father - I do wish you would repeat their questions so we can know what is being asked and answered. Thank you for your teaching.
My mother and I recently had Covid. When I called our pastor and asked if someone could bring the holy Eucharist to our home I was told that he didn't feel comfortable asking anyone to do so. He then suggested that I notify him when we were cleared by our doctor.
The idea of no sacraments ... I will be at a loss, save for the love of Christ. Pray pray pray, and prepare. Trust in Christ. War' about to come, spiritually, physically ... its scarier, but Christ has already won the victory.
Jesus Jesus Jesus 🙏❤️
We are already in that time in some places.
At the end of every EWTN mass there is a format for spiritual communion.
I do not want to punish aching mankind, I desire to heal it, pressing it to My Merciful Heart. I use punishment when they themselves force Me to do so; My hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice. (Diary, 1588) of st faustina
I pray for you brother and sister amen our lord Jesus 🙏
Thank you Father for your great teachings.
Thank you, Father.
The 10 commandments are one guideline
Yes.... I don't understand what you are trying to say
God knows what’s in your heart
Deo Gratius father Chad
Thank you so much for this notice, am praying for all our families no matter how far away we are from one another. Please keep us all safe
Dear fr Ripperger,
I am not a Catholic but a Christian Orthodox. Even so I often offer my sufferings to Our Lady for the sake of pope Francisc to the best of my poor ability. Today I trust she has shown me the pope as a great fire which brings the Light to the entire church and I was left with a strong conviction that his level of Holiness is not something I will ever comprehend. I know she loves him in a different manner then any of us. I need you to know that no "draconian" thing can be born from such a fire of God.
Father please bless my weak soul.
Thank you Fr. Ripperger, this information is fabuliys
That is a great question I've been having trouble with lately. Here in Brazil we almost don't have T.M, it's mostly Novus Ordo. And since the priests in the different parishes have become aware I prefer Catholicism prior to Second Vatican Council II it's been tough on me to get to confession. Also they have been pushing forward in ways to dessacrate even the Novus Ordo like putting the Eucharist Minister to lead Mass, and the priest will be absent.
Go to confession regardless of N.O. or TLM. God will hear you.
Find a Melkite Church
Does the extraordinary minister of communion do a mass or a lay service?
Devotion to St. Michael the Prince of Angels...Archangel and of course The Rosary are 2 basics for me❤
Very informative and helpful
Father is right that there will be temptation to distraction during chastisement, as it says in scripture. "I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted" Psalm 88:15
As I believe Padre Pio said we could live without the sun better than we could live without their eucharist. And we can't live without the sun so ... what to do?
Thank you Father. God Bless you.
I have found that Living in The Divine Will has given me the confidence that whatever happens God is in control.
Me,too!
Best thing I ever found! Fiat!
Danke!
Going to now say a decade as per Penanceware requirement for viewing this valuable teaching. Thanks be to God.
Thanks!
What happened with COVD. That pained me very much and im not even a practicing Catholic that long. It was horrible.
Fr. Ripperger is already talking about when the chastisement will come not if.... I guess it's unavoidable now
Do you see mass conversions? No. Therefore...
This is heart breaking, i now we have to be atrong and accept Gods will but im already suffering with the collaps of america i pray God delivers us from such horrendous times but i dont think my prayers matter 😏 Father im so afraid and i can't bear to see my small children suffer 😭💔 God forgive me because im weak 🫤😪
Of course your prayers matter to God. Pray and trust God completely. Pray with your family, especially the rosary every day . God bless you and yours.
This is an amazing message ....
I can hear the voice of Holy Spirit in the message. I feel the battle happening in my soul already.
Aux archbishop Schneider was writing in his book Christus Vincit about his own parents' situation that when they were getting married in former Russia under Stalin, there was no priest available, and they were married without a priest, in the presence of two witnesses they spoke their vows according to the Rite of the Church. So even the Sacrament of marriage is possible. At that time they would see a priest once or twice a year, sometimes not even for a whole year. And when the priest came, he had to hold Mass in secret and hear hundreds of confessions under the same precarious conditions. That if he was caught, the faithful would have been left without a priest for half a century. So if he had had to hold weddings as well, he wouldn't have been able to hear confessions....
And then in Japan there were no priests for 2 hundred years, and yet the Catholic faith survived. So there must have been providence for the Sacrament of marriage, otherwise no Catholic offspring would have been able to live beyond half a century....
Christ is our great High priest when there is no other. God is not bound by man!
@@CatholicWhisper but Peter was given the keys to bind and loose in Earth and Heaven. These are the words of Christ in the Gospel.
@@CatholicWhisper However, as long as we have access to a priest and the access of sacraments, we must avail ourselves to the norm (Mass on Sunday and confessing mortal sin in confession) as well as all the other sacraments we need. God may not be bound by any grace through any sacrament, but we are obliged to follow the norms of the Catholic Church, which Jesus Christ instituted for us!
My cousin died recently in Zephrhills and the local priest would not come. I never heard of that before. The priests said it was too late! They also have confessions at 8AM on Saturdays. Sounds like they can't be bothered with the Sacraments!
very good reminder of how we should be living everyday. As for marriage, I've always read that it is one of the two sacraments that can be performed without the clergy in an emergency.
you still need priest to witness the intention of Marital bond to be valid. Father says this in the talk!
Where on earth did you read that, I have never ever read that anywhere in my 66 years, but if I have missed something please reference where I can find it.
@@hi-pg4mqthe Japanese kept the Faith going 200 years without a priest through marriage and Baptism.
Our Lady of Revelation is coming true!
Beautiful
