A large and consistent issue within the Church is that many have rested too much in the safety of her bosom. Complacency has set in and led to lukewarm Catholicism.

It lacks specificity and weight, and therefore substance. Elaborate. Share examples of apathy and compromise. Illuminate it against the backdrop of the scriptural standard.

@@Clif87 Ex-athiest to Catholic (in early 2023). Your observation aligns with my own, about a resurgence of some kind in the Catholic Church. My spiritual director, a devout and caring pastor was shocked when I told him my observation. I told him to look at how many people are turning up to the 7am Mass on weekdays (~50 people) which is a HUGE improvement from past years based on what I've been told, and considering that the weekend Masses have ~800-1000 people cumulative over 5 Masses. Not sure I would say an end to lukewarm Catholicism but certainly a curbing of its growth. The number of people having supernatural experiences and coming/returning to the Church is unlike anything I can recall from the past 30 years.

They were planning to go back that week where the war is going, this couple were telling us horrific stories about what happened at their country back home. She said, she gets anxiety with fear every time she hears loud explosives such as fireworks. It was so heartbreaking and devastating the stories, so I end up giving her all of my scapulars, and about 7 small wallets Divine Mercy pictures of Jesus, a bracelet rosary, Saint Benedict’s and miraculous medals, the rosary oil that I carried in my bag everywhere, the Lady of Lourdes water, all of it was already exorcist blessed by the priest. I told her every time she gets scared just look at the Divine Mercy picture of Jesus and recite the prayer at the back or just say “Jesus I trust in you” as many times as she wants. I said Jesus is a Jew like her, he will answer, and she nods her head yes. She gave me a big hug😢 I told her to have all her doors, windows blessed with the oil and Lourdes water with the sign of the cross and also put it on her families forehead and chest blessings with The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit.

My understanding from an Orthodox rabbi is that Isaiah 53 describes Israel, not Jesus. Curious to hear other Jewish perspectives because Christians tell a different rendition of the Tanakh.
Well of course someone who denies the divinity of Jesus (blasphemy) seeks to downplay the relevance of Jesus and emphasize something that temporally benefits them (Israel)
@@lordvader5246Nope. It's called context. If the church had to look at it and own up to it, all its lies would die. Christian dogma is built on cruel ancient Roman satire and psychological warfare.
@@lordvader5246 Rome sponsored various cults and temples, including the Herodian one in Judea. It is Rome that created and preserved the messages and symbols that we call Christianity, although the ideas were shaped by one particular Alexandrian satirist who used a variety of aliases, one of them "Josephus." Think about how absurd it would be for an actual itenerent Judean preacher to tell peope to give to caesar what is caesar's as people starve from taxation, to carry their cross as they are literally crucified by the droves for rebelling against Roman oppression, and go the extra mile when already forced to by occupying Roman forces. If not predisposed by ideology to hyperspiritualize the text, people would instantly recognize the gospel literature as the cruel satirical campaign that it is. In particular The Flavians sposored literature to legitimize their rule in a century marked with civil unrest and rebellion.
Modern Judaism is NOT AT ALL the same religion as the religion of the ancient Israelites. Scott Hahn's equating of the two is one of his persistent errors that he brought from his Protestant background. It should have been corrected long ago,
Why Is it Hard for a Jew to believe in Jesus Christ?
The Answer is recorded by The Prophet Isaiah in chapter 6
Isaiah 6: 1-10 God Blinds The Children of Israel
1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
In the time of Christ Jesus this was being fulfilled...
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Just as it was back in the Time of Jesus Christ, the Religious Leaders especially could not believe in him, because Scriptures could not be broken...
Even in the Time when The Apostle Paul was sharing the Truth with some Jews... many could not believe, and this is what occurred in Acts 28...
Acts 28:21-29 The Apostle Paul also Quotes from the Prophet Isaiah...
21 And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.
22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.
25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
This is Why it is easier for a Gentile to believe in God and The Lord Jesus, than a Jew - but there will be a Day when The Children of Israel as a whole will get their eyes open.
That Day will not come to pass until the 70th Week of Daniel 9:24-27 comes to pass. Until that time, only a Few of Many will Believe in The Lord Jesus Christ.
Same way Protestants don't see the literal body and blood of Christ in the Eucharist. Also, you think jews don't look at you guys and wonder how come you guys don't see that you are clearly making stuff up? You read the bible searching for jesus in it. Thus every possible human like appearance of god on earth has to be jesus... Why? The father cannot manifest and present himself as a human or an angel? The holy Spirit cannot? And this is not even going into the discussion that an angel is a messenger, thus someone addressing an angel as god, does not mean he is literally god, but since he represents god, we talk to him as if he is god. Like moses and the fire bush... Ofc no one worships bushes on fire and thinks they are god. We understand the bush is a medium where god chose to express himself through. Why can't god do the same with literally his own messengers....
Or some way Unitarians don't think jesus is God... Or same way seven day Adventists understand Saturday to be the Sabbath... Catholics do not have a perfect understanding of the bible where only jews cannot "see" It.... If anything, try listening to the people that know the holy book in it's original language...
Is this a catholic coping mechanism? Why cant jews see jesus is the Messiah, because he isnt for them or what they believe. Closer to their version would of been simon bar kochba not a bishop of the roman empire Might as well say why is horus not the alpha and omega!
Jesus isn't for them? Are you not aware of what Jesus said during his ministry? "I come for the lost sheep of Israel"? His apostles all being Jewish and Paul likewise a Jewish persecutor of Christians. I think it's fair to say Jesus was for them considering he was the Jewish Messiah...
@@xenahx685 yes but that is the same as saying Mohammed says... Perhaps speak to someone Jewish or read their books, as their version of Messiah is far different, more akin to a warrior king figure, such as bar kochba or for Samaritans the Baba Raba figure..
@@thewatcher_UK yeah, imagine the fact that God superceded human expectations of the Messiah, how dare he... Also, where is this warrior king Messiah? I know the Rebbe claimed he would come after Netanyahu but I highly doubt it. "Jews" have been waiting for their Messiah for plenty of time now. Yet, only one seems to fit the bill proper.
@@xenahx685 missing the point, which is why I said they thought it was bar kochba and the Samaritans thought it was the Baba Raba. God said in the old testament about the ingathering of exiles and the uniting of Israel with Judea, which would of been the Samaritan Israelites and the judean Israelites etc.. so unless god changed his mind??
@@roddumlauf9241 your ambiguous take from an unspecified Bible verse is both suspicious and communicated nothing related to my comment. It remains true that we should pray for the conversion of Jews along all other infidels (non believers).

I would say I deny Jesus too, but it would be like denying Harry Potter. It's a literary figure of an ancient satiric gospel campaign orchestrated by an Alexandrian who worked for Rome.

Catholicism doesn’t fulfill Judaism . None of your traditions and worshiping or praying of the saints can be found in the OT. Especially not Peter being the rock of the Church. The ENTIRE bible is about Jesus and Jesus alone. Not Peter, or mary, or any other sinner, and especially not the papacy. Just Jesus.

@@paulcapaccio9905 yeah everyone who chooses not to be Catholic falls into that category. Some people mistakenly believe Jews get a free pass because they think jews are still Gods chosen people (they aren’t).
@@paulcapaccio9905 The Catholic Church teaches that Protestants can be saved also.
@@roddumlauf9241 anyone outside the Catholic church can be saved, but only if they are outside the church through no fault of their own.
You cannot reject the catholic church with full culpability and still be saved.
@@roddumlauf9241 yes but it is harder because many even when exposed to the truth still avoid the Church . That is dangerous
There’s no argument here, no engagement with ideas or struggle to get at what’s true, just endless affirmation and praise for the speaker (and denigration of anyone who has the temerity to question him). We’ll just leave you to it but don’t ever tell yourselves that you’re interested in dialogue with people who don’t share your perspective.
Wisdom 2:12-20 and Isaiah 53... Who else could the OT have been foreshadowing, if not Jesus Christ?
My understanding from an Orthodox rabbi is that Isaiah 53 describes Israel, not Jesus. Curious to hear other Jewish perspectives because Christians tell a different rendition of the Tanakh.
Well of course someone who denies the divinity of Jesus (blasphemy) seeks to downplay the relevance of Jesus and emphasize something that temporally benefits them (Israel)
@@lordvader5246Nope. It's called context. If the church had to look at it and own up to it, all its lies would die. Christian dogma is built on cruel ancient Roman satire and psychological warfare.
@@booksquid856 sounds like projection
@@lordvader5246 Rome sponsored various cults and temples, including the Herodian one in Judea. It is Rome that created and preserved the messages and symbols that we call Christianity, although the ideas were shaped by one particular Alexandrian satirist who used a variety of aliases, one of them "Josephus." Think about how absurd it would be for an actual itenerent Judean preacher to tell peope to give to caesar what is caesar's as people starve from taxation, to carry their cross as they are literally crucified by the droves for rebelling against Roman oppression, and go the extra mile when already forced to by occupying Roman forces. If not predisposed by ideology to hyperspiritualize the text, people would instantly recognize the gospel literature as the cruel satirical campaign that it is. In particular The Flavians sposored literature to legitimize their rule in a century marked with civil unrest and rebellion.
@@booksquid856 sounds like you're mad about the destruction of the 2nd temple and the disputation of paris.
Modern Judaism is NOT AT ALL the same religion as the religion of the ancient Israelites. Scott Hahn's equating of the two is one of his persistent errors that he brought from his Protestant background. It should have been corrected long ago,
Why Is it Hard for a Jew to believe in Jesus Christ?
The Answer is recorded by The Prophet Isaiah in chapter 6
Isaiah 6: 1-10 God Blinds The Children of Israel
1 In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly.
3 And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 And the posts of the door moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
6 Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:
7 And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.
In the time of Christ Jesus this was being fulfilled...
Matthew 13:10-17 Prophecy being Fulfilled
10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
11 He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
12 For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.
13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Just as it was back in the Time of Jesus Christ, the Religious Leaders especially could not believe in him, because Scriptures could not be broken...
Even in the Time when The Apostle Paul was sharing the Truth with some Jews... many could not believe, and this is what occurred in Acts 28...
Acts 28:21-29 The Apostle Paul also Quotes from the Prophet Isaiah...
21 And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.
22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.
25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
This is Why it is easier for a Gentile to believe in God and The Lord Jesus, than a Jew - but there will be a Day when The Children of Israel as a whole will get their eyes open.
That Day will not come to pass until the 70th Week of Daniel 9:24-27 comes to pass. Until that time, only a Few of Many will Believe in The Lord Jesus Christ.
Same way Protestants don't see the literal body and blood of Christ in the Eucharist.
Also, you think jews don't look at you guys and wonder how come you guys don't see that you are clearly making stuff up?
You read the bible searching for jesus in it.
Thus every possible human like appearance of god on earth has to be jesus... Why? The father cannot manifest and present himself as a human or an angel? The holy Spirit cannot?
And this is not even going into the discussion that an angel is a messenger, thus someone addressing an angel as god, does not mean he is literally god, but since he represents god, we talk to him as if he is god.
Like moses and the fire bush... Ofc no one worships bushes on fire and thinks they are god. We understand the bush is a medium where god chose to express himself through.
Why can't god do the same with literally his own messengers....
Or some way Unitarians don't think jesus is God...
Or same way seven day Adventists understand Saturday to be the Sabbath...
Catholics do not have a perfect understanding of the bible where only jews cannot "see" It....
If anything, try listening to the people that know the holy book in it's original language...
@@gabrielkovalov8966easy buddy no one understands that 😅
@@Seraphim33AD bummer
Is this a catholic coping mechanism? Why cant jews see jesus is the Messiah, because he isnt for them or what they believe. Closer to their version would of been simon bar kochba not a bishop of the roman empire
Might as well say why is horus not the alpha and omega!
Jesus isn't for them? Are you not aware of what Jesus said during his ministry? "I come for the lost sheep of Israel"?
His apostles all being Jewish and Paul likewise a Jewish persecutor of Christians.
I think it's fair to say Jesus was for them considering he was the Jewish Messiah...
@@xenahx685 yes but that is the same as saying Mohammed says... Perhaps speak to someone Jewish or read their books, as their version of Messiah is far different, more akin to a warrior king figure, such as bar kochba or for Samaritans the Baba Raba figure..
@@thewatcher_UK yeah, imagine the fact that God superceded human expectations of the Messiah, how dare he...
Also, where is this warrior king Messiah? I know the Rebbe claimed he would come after Netanyahu but I highly doubt it. "Jews" have been waiting for their Messiah for plenty of time now. Yet, only one seems to fit the bill proper.
@@xenahx685 missing the point, which is why I said they thought it was bar kochba and the Samaritans thought it was the Baba Raba.
God said in the old testament about the ingathering of exiles and the uniting of Israel with Judea, which would of been the Samaritan Israelites and the judean Israelites etc.. so unless god changed his mind??
I don't think about jews at all
Jesus is a jew
You should. If you loved them you’d constantly pray for their conversion.
@@lordvader5246 Paul says that all Christians are Jews in Romans and Galatians.
@@roddumlauf9241 your ambiguous take from an unspecified Bible verse is both suspicious and communicated nothing related to my comment. It remains true that we should pray for the conversion of Jews along all other infidels (non believers).

Catholicism doesn’t fulfill Judaism . None of your traditions and worshiping or praying of the saints can be found in the OT. Especially not Peter being the rock of the Church. The ENTIRE bible is about Jesus and Jesus alone. Not Peter, or mary, or any other sinner, and especially not the papacy. Just Jesus.
Matthew 16:18: “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my Church.”
Protestant gnosticism does not fufill judaism. The Catholic Church is the bride of Christ revealed in the whole of the Old and New Testament.
