I also had a locution with a woman's voice in my right ear while praying. I immediately identified it as the voice of Our Lady. She told me if I fasted and prayed she would send me a son who would be a special priest to her. A few months later, after obeying the request, I became pregnant with a boy. Today he is 24 years of age and is in the Toronto Archdiocese Seminary. Please pray for him, his name is Kurtis Noro. Thank you for sharing your religious experience!
That's so amazing. A few years back, I had a locution in my left ear. It was Jesus. He said, "I love you." I guess I needed to hear that. It is a wonderful grace that I can return to.
I reverted back to Catholicism last summer after attending an Evangelical church for sometime. I felt the Blessed Virgin calling me home. I’m so thankful and grateful. God bless you! 🩵🙏🏼
@@joshuayen3 I pray that you continue to speak on your faith. The Lord has called you and needs many workers to harvest the field. Put on your armor daily. 🙏🏼
@@joshuayen3so you really think the deceased in heaven can hear your prayers ⁉️. That God would throw His word away to ALLOW ONLY CATHOLIC PEOPLE DO THIS? His word says NO one in heaven between God and MAN BUT JESUS YET you all say OH but Mary can and other dead saints ⁉️😵💫. Calling God a 🤥 liar ⁉️
@@joshuayen3ITS ALL ABOUT DOCTRINE. this is what you heard. Satan talking. They said the apostles if anyone come with ANOTHER DOCTRINE let them be accursed. They can not FORGIVE YOUR SINS. MAN can as a priest CAN NOT FORGIVE YOUR SINS. THIS IS DECEPTION. If you read the word of Christ and have the HOLY GHOST YOU CAN easily discern their LIES AND DECEPTIONS but if you just go on what YOU HEAR and they say IT LEAD YOU TO CULT church and following MEN. SORRY you fell for this CULT. MIMICKING CHRISTIANITY. MARY can not hear or do anything for your salvation and those men feed on y’all ignorance. They CAN NOT FORGIVE SINS. THEY CAN NOT FORGIVE YOUR SINS
I became Catholic but I thot the main reason I was called to the Catholic Church was because my husband was Catholic. One morning he didn’t go to Mass. I went by myself. I was MAD. As I was walking across the street I heard the Lord say “I called u here for me!”
Thank you for sharing. Jesus spoke to me in adoration. He interrupted my prayers by calling me by my given name. Which startled me, and then he went on to tell me that he was there, and I had the distinct impression of him leaning his head against mine. I still remember how soft and beautiful his hair was on my cheek. He's so loving and gives me consolation when I need it. ❤❤
Wow, i kept hearing testimonies of conversion from people of different protestant denominations and it's awesome to see the younger generations are very vocal with their witnessing to the Truth and its Bride the Catholic Church. The likes of you are the future of the church. May you keep proclaiming the faith specially to the young ones. God bless you! Who knows you are on your road to priesthood if the Lord calls you to be. My prayers 🙏🥰
My observation is that at least 90% of the most theologically and philosophically educates people discern the truth and then become Catholic. While I am not that educated, I am indeed in good company. Keep teaching me, please. God bless!
Thank you for your kind words, more Christian content will come out on this channel! But also, feel free to check my more philosophical and academic channel Philosophy for All
I had an experience with Jesus in 2023. He delivered me. He spoke to me inaudibly and sent me to the catholic church for the truth. He stressed the truth and interpretations of scripture is very important and warned me of the other churches. Not to say He isn't with all Christians. I felt His love for humanity. I sense something is really happening right now and in the church. I don't understand it. Honestly, I was in shock and wasn't 100% grounded until over a year after the experience. I'll be confirmed this Easter. ❤ 🙏 "Stay in prayer." "Be perfect in love." "Read (scripture) daily." He also spoke to me about feeding the hungry. God bless us all. 🙏 ❤
Josh, I was paying the rosary one night and started to drift to sleep when I was startled awake by a woman's voice. It was so startling I was looking around the room for the source. Unfortunately, I was not sure what she told me, because I was so surprised by this. She either said "come closer" or "pray slower". I felt a mix of guilt. disappointment, and elation at this, because I was not attentive in my state of drowsiness to clearly hear her speak, but I figure both of those are great advice in prayer and bear good fruit. I was surprised at the way her voice sounded: feminine but strong. If she was the BVM, I had always imagined her to have a higher pitched (soprano) voice, but the one I heard would have been in the alto range if she were singing.
This was so amazing. Mother Mary pulls us in and closer to our Lord. You are awesome brother welcome home. Best part of Mass…the most deepest connection and love with God are when I reverently say; Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world….brings tears to my eyes and my heart beats for the savior and His mother.
Your Asian roots also testify to the spiritual yearning you had that was met in the Catholic Church . China has been waiting for Christ for millennia . The Tang dynasty encouraged the building of over 100 Christian monasteries in the 6 th century . The Eastern roots of Catholicism is deep , and the mystical nature of the Church is still very much alive in that region .
China was monotheistic prior to the Common Era; there is a video detailing this history. They called their One God by the name “Shang Di”, meaning “supreme ruler” or “Lord above”.
The mystical spirituality of Catholicism is a rich tradition within the Church, and indeed, it is sometimes the very experience itself of God and grace at work in our human lives that strengthens faith. For all one’s intellect and brilliance, the best is surely when God understands our weakness - including intellectual pride - and works from the simplest point of contact, speaking directly a d interiorly with such joy and peace you know it is a genuine experience by itself. 😊
When I learned there are degrees of prayer and that anyone can go higher in these degrees up to mysticism, where they begin receiving loads of infused knowledge and actual clearer and bigger amounts of responses from God, then that was it for me... I already had other reasons, but this was the final one. And then when I actually began my conversion process I then had plenty of interesting experiences that showed me I was going the right direction and that I was comming closer to God and He's already communicating with me and teaching me things, giving me light, etc...
My brother was called to the priesthood by voice of the BVM, who identified herself! "I am the BVM, and I am calling you to the priesthood". It was totally unexpected, he was at a Catholic conference and was not actively faithful at all at that time.
@joshuayen3 I mean this with respect to your belief but it seems very strange. Of her calling ppl into priesthood or this or the other. Very strange to me in the bible the one thst would call someone into a particular ministry/mission is God. So that's strange to me. And yea in pretty much all chapels there's a statue of virgin mady above all others. That ain't right. So the catholic church praises God or Mary?
@@cbooth151Read Pope Benedict's 'Ratzinger Report' where he explains many of the innovations that came into use were not meant to be used. Read Vatican II documents to see what they really say. Latin was never meant to be done away with but given 'pride of place' along with English. Gregorian chant also was not meant to be done away with. I grew up with Tradional mass, we can not go back to pre-Vatican mass but to be fair, some of the innovations introduced were not meant to be used
Brent Pitre's books Jewis# Roots of the Eucharist, and J'wish Roots of Mary are gane changers. My spouse converted 4 months ago after 50 years of being hostile to the the faith. The traditional mass also helped reinforce how everything in the apostolic original christian Church is extremely scriptural
Welcome Home. Shared your experience exactly at the same moment as a new convert…same moment…but loudly in my whole body : KNEEL ! then understanding filled my being …yes! That makes complete sense! “ how can I stand there so casually asking God to have mercy on me ? “ 💡 now that my husband and I both assist at Traditional Latin Mass …Lex orandi, lex credendi, lex vivendi….May His Majesty be blessed and praised forever and ever. Amen 🙏 Amen!
Hey, you're from Hong Kong. That's great. Rosary Church on Chatham Road in HK has an always full (standing room only) English mass on Sundays. I used to love going to church there when I would visit HK.
It's so touching to hear that you made response to your mystical experience. 有一本關於默主歌耶的書籍，作者原本也是基督教徒，他也是聽到一位女士的聲音，結果變成一位傳揚聖母信息的使者。你的經驗是真實的，超過doctrine,超過senses,是一種直觀，由神直接主動將知識傾注在你心中。我十分為你高興，也請你為我祈禱。
You must do more video brother about your journey to the catholic faith, thanks for your time and effort, we are waiting for your next video. GOD Bless You
Mine was similar. I was an anti-Catholic agnostic. I awoke one day with the strongest voice in me that said clearly “you must go to Catholic Church.” Been Latin Mass for 13 months now.
My first thought perhaps was that you heard Our Blessed Virgin Mary speak to you. God bless you and welcome! You may be interested in hearing a Protestant pastors conversion story - his name is Keith Nestor and has a channel on you tube. Check it out ❤🙏
In your studies of phenomenology, have you come much across St. Edith Stein (aka St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross)? I've only just begun to very amateurishly explore her work, but evidently as a philosopher she was heavily influenced by and did a lot with phenomenology.
Well good news for you, I will be interviewing Dr Sarah Borden on Edith Stein soon on my philosophy channel philosophy for all, so stay tuned to it! Will come out in around a month
Isn't that funny that Luther said the finite cannot contain the infinite? Didn't he see the irony of his finite self trying to contain the infinite with his declaration?
Not the first time (in fact many) that I've heard of people brought up Protestant are exposed to anti-Catholic remarks at home and in sermons. So it is a reassuring feeling that I and the large majority of Catholics don't hear negative things about Protestants at home or at church simply because we know we are following the church founded by Jesus and barely give other churches a thought which is a waste of time.
I'm a former Protestant and New Catholic. The beauty in the Mass is unmatched. I just left and I feel so rejuvenated in my spirit! And I have a new love for Mary that the Protestant Church denied, saying ,"so what" about our Blessed Holy Queen Mother. At the same time, they'd say that our Christian lives on earth are rehearsal for what we'll be doing in Heaven. Well then...what was Our Lady doing HERE other than serving God perfectly and bringing people to her Son? But "so what", right? Ha! Her crowned Majesty is too humble to do it so...HA! Protestant church doctrine rips faith right out of people! The LORD Jesus tells us that He's ACTIVE in the holy waters of baptism, and that He's ACTIVE in the Eucharist, but they say that it only represents. But Jesus told us these things in TRUTH, and for our ASSURANCE, because He keeps His promises and His word never returns ineffective. If you're a PROTESTANT of any kind (but especially a Calvinist), LEAVE! It's demonic doctrine that leads people to doubt, deny and apostatize, because they strip God's promises bare with heterodoxical and heretical teachings with faulty 'gymnastics' then have the never to look down upon Catholics as "whores of Babylon", "the apostate Church", and "idol worshipping heretics", because THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND! THE 5 Solas are wrong! They're NOT biblical! Sola Scriptura causes them to almost completely ignore Church history - which would tell them what the ancient faith is EXACTLY - so they could be AGAINST HERESIES...but instead they defy God, formulate their own reasoning in the name of following Him, and thus become their own popes, traveling on the wrong road and leading others astray, in the name of being true to God. THIS IS THE BLASPHEMY OF CALLING GOOD EVIL AND CALLING EVIL GOOD PETER IS THE ROCK. JESUS SAID SO. THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WASHING AND SEALING US IN THE WATERS OF BAPTISM. JESUS SAID SO. JESUS IS FORGIVING SINS AND RENEWING ETERNAL LIFE IN THE EUCHARIST. IF YOU DON'T EAT HIS FLESH AND DRINK HIS BLOOD, WITH FAITH IN WHAT IMMANUEL (GOD WITH US) SAYS HE'S DOING THERE, THEN YOU HAVE NO LIFE IN YOU. JESUS SAID SO. Satan wants to knock you off of the straight and narrow road, but he won't present you with a new road to do it. He'll only make you doubt the road that God paved (the Catholic Church), and from there, when you start to doubt God, he knows you'll go your own way onto another road. Everybody needs to be under the Pope, because that's what Christ ordained with Peter, giving him the Keys and the Chair. He sits in the place of authority over the church on earth as the Vicar of Christ, and he is our universal pastor. Since the Pope sits in Jesus' Chair, if we refuse to do what he says, then we're refusing to listen to CHRIST THE LORD, WHO LEFT HIM IN CHARGE. PERIOD. You have to believe in the promises of Jesus or they're not YOURS! It's by FAITH! If you don't believe then it's not applied to you! You have NO ACCESS to His promises of forgiveness and eternal life if you don't obey Him, know Him rightly, and believe His words! If He promises, don't bet the house on it, throw it away! Trade in EVERYTHING for Jesus! The Catholic Church is the ONLY church Jesus built, instituting Peter as the Pope, and He promised that evil wouldn't prevail against it! His Church will stand FOREVER, and that's THE CATHOLIC CHURCH! If you're not part of His Church then...WHO'S IS IT?!? Luther, Calvin and Zwingli didn't die to save your soul!
Welcome home! Christ wanted us all together not separated by misunderstandings and pride! Edit: Our Mother brought me back home after becoming “spiritual”. She always had a place of honor in our home and I believe that’s what kept me from completely falling. She sent me St Padre Pio to kick my butt back home. The communion of saints is alive and well Viva Cristo Rey! Ave Maria! Pax et Bonum
Catholics understand that they are outside the world, exactly that is the meaning of the word CHURCH. We operate in two realms, a physical with physical or natural laws and a spiritual realm with another kind of laws. Some saints were allowed to walk both realms at easy. For instance bilocation ( be in two places at the same time), levitation, be suspended in the air, walks the waters as St Mauro, and extraordinary strength as St Christopher. So we have this knowledge of the supernatural as nobody else and no Protestant cannot phantom. Then we know about the inter dimensional spirits called angels and they also are outside of time as God, some of those angels are hate us and want our destruction and that is why we say that we live in constant spiritual battle and Jesus Himself warned us about them and that Lucifer is the Prince of this realm. So the richness of our Faith is limitless, abundant and perfect. Still Vatican is going through very bad period right now, so we focus on Jesus and not the pope right now, we don’t follow people who doesn’t follow God, and God gave us discernment for not fall for fake prophets. Blessings Ye, great job and welcome!!!
Following Rene Descartes meditation Category 1: Minds I exist and I am a mind. Therefore Minds exist. Category 2: Matter I have feelings. These feelings originate from sensors in what I call my body. The sensors are receptive to stimulation from events created from within my body and from events created from outside my body. The stuff that bring about these events I shall categorise as matter. Thus my body is also made of matter. Therefore Matter exists. Category 3: Space My body needs space and matter in general needs space. Matter can exist only in space. Therefore space must exist. Category 4: Time My body needs time to change and matter in general needs time for change. Matter can change only in time. Therefore time must exist. From the above observation I conclude that these 4 categories permeate each other and exist equally with none more abstract or less abstract than another. Now to the question of the origin of these categories Could it be that any one or more of these categories can be made from any one or more of the remaining categories? Could these categories transform from one to another? Matter needs space and time for its existence, therefore without space and time matter will not exist as such matter could not have been the origin of space and time. From physics it has been observed that space and time can give rise to matter spontaneously. As such matter maybe a result of a localised change to space and time. So then could space and time be the origin of everything else? Again from the theory of the Big Bang all space, time and matter originated from this singular event. Therefore space and time could not alone have brought about the other categories. Since the big bang was an event, could it be that all things are made from events? Where there is space, time and matter there is always an event. There can be no space , time or matter without events. In an instant all of space and the matter is nothing more or nothing less than a set of events. So then space, time and matter is one and the same as a set of simultaneous events from one instant to the next. From this observation the 4 categories can be reduced to 2 categories Category 1 : Minds Category 2 : Events Now then can minds exist without events. We know that simultaneous events give rise to feeling in minds. We know from special relativity simultaneous events cannot give rise to anything physical or material. Therefore feelings cannot be physical or material. Now as feelings are a part of minds we must conclude minds are not physical. Now can the mind exist without feelings OR does feelings create the mind, that is one and the same as the mind? If feeling create the mind then as feelings are created by events then space, time and matter which we have concluded is the same as events, must also have feeling and thus be one and the same as a mind. Thus we would need to conclude a rock has a mind or is part of a mind to the same extent that my brain is a mind or is part of a mind. This conclusion is not palatable as such let’s consider the OTHER alternative Now if a mind can exist without feeling then we also know that the mind can create events. (e.g throw a rock, move a finger) So then given that the mind can create events then the big bang (The Event) could have originated from The Mind in order to evoke feelings in other minds. These other minds may have also been created by The Mind such that the earthly life of each mind is the big bang that determines the eternal or heavenly life of that mind in The Mind. philpapers.org/rec/DESCAS www.jcer.com/index.php/jcj/article/view/1020/0
We don’t convert, God does! But we put a good word for the Lord out there when is needed it. We are bears of His Light and we don’t hide the light under the table but we show the Light to others, it’s like to plant a seed also. Plenty of references in the Bible about this. Blessings! Thanks for sharing.
Jesus Christ or Yeshua said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me”. John 14:6 “Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.” Deuteronomy 6:5 We need to pray for spiritual discernment and for the LORD to guard our hearts and minds from the evil one. We need to test teachings and any other feelings or thoughts against Scripture to make sure they align with God’s truth. Always remember the interaction between the evil one and Eve (and Adam) and how they were deceived.
Very brave but reaching the truth... To encourage in your direction read Maria Valtorta As padre Pio told one of his parishioner " i dont recommend you to read Maria Valtorta book but i order you to read it"...
Christianity is a unitary whole, a matter of mind and heart, body and spirit. Follow the g guidance of a God pastor, in words and by spirit. God bless.
"Thoughts" and The concept of God Usage of the word "Thought" in this post is taken to mean anything that is part of a humans conscious experience. Under this definition a sound heard is a thought as much the thoughts going to solve a mathematical puzzle. Based on the above definition it can be said that all of humanities knowledge consist of "thoughts". For anything to be known by a human it must become a "thought". In the context of such a definition of "thoughts" The set of all "thoughts" would fit the concept of God. If you accept Mathematical Platonism then God would exist The concept of God entails a single entity that has the following properties Wisdom: The set of all thoughts will contain the perfect answer to every possible question Infinitude: The set of all thoughts will have an infinite amount of thoughts Sovereignty: There can be no thought that is not an element of the set of thoughts Omniscience:The set of all thought is all knowing as it contains all thoughts.
At Lord’s, there have been over 8000 miracles even though not that many have been proven because it’s expensive to get a lot of doctors to compare everything but around the world that over 39 spots where the Blessed Virgin Mary has appeared there have been numerous miracles she wants to help all of us to get to heaven.
Do not separate Jesus and the Church Because Jesus is the head of the Church and the Church is His body. what the Church leaders ought us to do, it's from Jesus Himself. In fact Jesus affirmed the authority of the Church as equal to the authority in heaven. "....whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, whatever you loose on earth will be lose in heaven" (Matthew 16:18-19) that's a strong statement of authority given to the church.
@@waynecornell-w5u. Hahahaha.... Pray to Mary? What does pray means? pray means to ask in old english. Prayer and Worship are not equal. Asking prayers to any other christian members is being encourage. PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER (James 5:16) PRAY FOR ALL PEOPLE (1 Timothy 2:1-2) KEEP ON PRAYING FOR ALL THE LORD'S PEOPLE (Ephesians 6:18) And so many more..... So if praying for other people does not avai anything my dear, why it is being encourage?? So if there is something good out of praying other people then tell me why do you think it is wrong to ask prayers to your co-chtistian? Mary is a christian so you and me. We are God's people and we are urge to pray for one another. If I pray for you, would it ve useless before the Lord? If you pray for me, will God hids His face and neglect you prayer? If not, and God is willing to listen to each ofcour prayer then it is never wrong to ask prayers from one another. Now, you might go and proceed, is Mary alive? Mary is dead. No way she could hear our prayers. I'll answer you the same way Jesus answered the pharisees. "God is God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob. He is not God of the dead, He is God of the living" (Luke 20:37) but it may not make sense to your literal mind because those name Jesus mentioned are even more dead than Mary. but Jesus proceed by saying " ...He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, FOR TO HIM ALL ARE ALIVE" that means, isn't it the promise of Jesus? Whoever believes in Him shall never die? and take note the present perfect tense of the WORD BELIEVES which denotes that until death you kept the faith and surely you'll get you reward. And what reward? Eternal life. Means not dead at all. and even if you died you shall live (John 11:25-26) we became victor when Jesus finally paid the ultimate price. Death is no longer the end. death is just the beginning. If someone died in the flesh as a christian, it doesnt mean that you will become a non-christian because of your death. In fact even death cannot separate us from the love of God in Christ (Romans 8:38-39). Those who died in Christ are more alive than you think. God is God of the living. Now if they are alive and with Jesus in heaven. Surely they are still member of the same church. In fact they are our family in heaven (Ephesian 3:15) and a family prays together and stays together. but I understand if you are not confident in asking Mary or any of your bothers and sisters in heaven. Because you are not even part of the family. Your family belongs to the people who believe that death is powerful and Christ sacrifice was useless. so go ahead and pray to the father of death.
Fr Ronan Murphy’s conversion story is a good example of what Our Lady can do. He had a mystical experience and became a priest. He is a good and holy priest. th-cam.com/video/7MS9i2DbL9c/w-d-xo.htmlsi=FKbO9dY1u4rwDQyW
One of the biggest critiques of all Western Europe Protestantism, the one that proves it to be completely and utterly false . The Catholic Church is not the only apostolic church . Ethiopia is the world’s first Christian nation , never in communion with Rome as it grew organically when st Matthew went there and was martyred. Same with st Thomas traveling to India . The disciples when out into the world . Today we have many apostolic churches from Assyrian to Coptic to Catholic to Greek Orthodox to Ethiopian . While higher level theology differs , we all believe in the teachings Jesus gave us through his blessed apostles . The real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The role of Mary as Mother of God . The confession of sins to a priest . The role of the saints in our lives . Separated by hundreds of years , thousands of miles , before communication , We all believe and still do believe the same . So my friend , are all of Jesus apostles wrong , or , is Protestantism ? What they did, was they removed the spirit from our great faith . And this is why modern Europeans and Americans look to the far east for spiritual growth .
Yes for a short time and generation , you can remove his heavily kingdom and only focus on Jesus . But it’s only a matter of time before we lose to the demons . We need the heavenly court . It’s why God gave us it . Our society in the west is broken because of this . We have lost our spirit
700 years ago in Europe , u can be excused for thinking Catholics were lying when they said they were honoring the true faith . Now we can see. They are
Ms. Graduate here. One would risk the loss of his salvation by worshipping or praying to saints as if they were gods, which constitutes idolatry; however, Catholics pray to saints for their intercession with the Triune God.
If you were to read your Bible you would know that it prohibits communication with the dead - Like Mary. Also the Mary of Catholocism always leads devotion and attention to her and not to Christ as the Holy Spirit does.
Sorry brother, but you are wrong on both counts. Mary is not dead. She is the mother of Christ - his first and most devoted disciple. And Christ is the God of the living and not the dead. Mary wants nothing more than for people to come to her Son. It sounds like you have been taught to not understand her or her role. But it's very simple. Christ came to us through Mary. And that is still the case. Mary loves her Son and wants us to follow Him.
@@jeannefernando4937 Why give Mary any attention at all. I would think that Paul would deserve a lot more attention since he fleshed out the Theology. I love Paul, but I don't adore or worship him. He is dead and we are prohibited from speaking to the dead. It's in the Old Testament. God does not change His mind, He is Immutable. So it would be hard to justify speaking or praying to any dead person. I am so glad I left the Roman Catholic Institution. Sola Scriptura!
I don't know what your original church was, but mainline protestantism does not argue the blood and body, is has different mechanics of the sacrifice rather than the material one. God bless you on your path❤
You said you don't research on the theology and doctrinal side of Christianity. That's why you converted to RC. My experience is, I grew up as a Catholic in a predominantly Catholic country, and studied in a Catholic school. My grandmother and mother are devout Catholics. But I did research on the bible. That's why I left the RC.
You said you research on the theology and doctrinal side of Christianity. That's why you converted to Prots. My experience is, I grew up as a Catholic in a predominantly secular country, and studied in a Catholic school. My grandmother and mother are cradle Catholics. But I did research on the bible. That's why I am still a RC.
I am a Protestant ......... The Female Voice that you are hearing is the Holy Spirit. We haven't been taught, that the Holy Spirit is feminine (Skekinah Glory is Feminine, Old Testament) Our mothers have always been our Comforter and Nurturer. So The Great Comforter is going to be Reflective of Her. Father and Mother from Heaven.
An unsurprising comment, considering that Protestants tend to downplay or deny the Blessed Mother’s singular role in salvation history, as well as Her God-given power to communicate with/intercede for Her Children as needed. Pax vobiscum. 📿
Very woke and Sat..anic. Sorry you haven't got to meet our Blessed Mother Mary. She IS a unique woman, so strong and loving at the same time. I used to think She didn't count much on God's Revelation, how wrong I was!!! Read A Treatise On The True Devotion To The Blessed Virgin Louis-Marie Grignon de Montfort
@maryannerazzano7692 I brought this on myself. I started listening to Catholics on youtube to learn what they believed. I don't think Mary wants me to be Catholic because the more I learn and listen to Catholic apologists and youtube Catholic channels, the less it makes sense to me.
@@JT-ts6nr I would say stick to Joe Heschemeyer and the Catholic Answers channel. It's easy to get overwhelmed because once you watch Catholic videos YT starts recommending you some crazy stuff. I also recommend Brant Pitre's "The Jewish Roots of..." books. It provides a foundation that even most Catholics don't know, so you'll be ahead of the game. And for future reference, there are three vertical dots that appear when you hover over the video title of the home page. If you click them you can choose "Not Interested". This teaches the algorithm what to show you. I'm Catholic but I've been able to filter out the crazy content because of this.
Christ never created any denominations least of all a cult greedy for power and mamon. As Christ said " Where two or more are gathered in my Name, there I shall be among them" Any church, anywhere, any time.

Just because someone says he/she is Catholic it does not mean they live out the catholic teachings and Faith. We have saints and we have sinners. Go to primary sources to find out what the Catholic Faith is all about. After all it is the Church which Christ Himself instituted so it cannot be what a rude or ignorant « catholic » makes you think that Church is.
Matt. 13:47-50 - God’s plan is that the Church (the kingdom of heaven) is a net which catches fish of every kind, good and bad. God revealed this to us so that we will not get discouraged by the sinfulness of the Church’s members.
I also had a locution with a woman's voice in my right ear while praying. I immediately identified it as the voice of Our Lady. She told me if I fasted and prayed she would send me a son who would be a special priest to her. A few months later, after obeying the request, I became pregnant with a boy. Today he is 24 years of age and is in the Toronto Archdiocese Seminary. Please pray for him, his name is Kurtis Noro. Thank you for sharing your religious experience!
Thank you, so many mothers will consciously/unconsciously steer their children away from religious life out of the desire for grandchildren.
That's so amazing. A few years back, I had a locution in my left ear. It was Jesus. He said, "I love you." I guess I needed to hear that. It is a wonderful grace that I can return to.
This is such a beautiful sharing, it is a great sacrifice to raise a child for the priesthood. I shall pray for him
How wonderful.

@@joshuayen3ITS ALL ABOUT DOCTRINE. this is what you heard. Satan talking. They said the apostles if anyone come with ANOTHER DOCTRINE let them be accursed. They can not FORGIVE YOUR SINS. MAN can as a priest CAN NOT FORGIVE YOUR SINS. THIS IS DECEPTION.
If you read the word of Christ and have the HOLY GHOST YOU CAN easily discern their LIES AND DECEPTIONS but if you just go on what YOU HEAR and they say IT LEAD YOU TO CULT church and following MEN. SORRY you fell for this CULT.
MIMICKING CHRISTIANITY.
MARY can not hear or do anything for your salvation and those men feed on y’all ignorance. They CAN NOT FORGIVE SINS. THEY CAN NOT FORGIVE YOUR SINS
I became Catholic but I thot the main reason I was called to the Catholic Church was because my husband was Catholic. One morning he didn’t go to Mass. I went by myself. I was MAD. As I was walking across the street I heard the Lord say “I called u here for me!”
Thank you for sharing.
Jesus spoke to me in adoration. He interrupted my prayers by calling me by my given name. Which startled me, and then he went on to tell me that he was there, and I had the distinct impression of him leaning his head against mine. I still remember how soft and beautiful his hair was on my cheek. He's so loving and gives me consolation when I need it. ❤❤
That is very beautiful
He’s so awesome and such a gentleman!
Welcome home brother..
Your loving Blessed Mother brought you HOME. Salve Regina❤️🙏🏽
Wow, i kept hearing testimonies of conversion from people of different protestant denominations and it's awesome to see the younger generations are very vocal with their witnessing to the Truth and its Bride the Catholic Church. The likes of you are the future of the church. May you keep proclaiming the faith specially to the young ones. God bless you!
Who knows you are on your road to priesthood if the Lord calls you to be. My prayers 🙏🥰
Welcome "Home," Joshua! Yes, Catholicism is rich in doctrine, tradition, and history, but above all rich in mercy and love. God Bless ~ Ave Maria!
Ave Maria indeed!
Excited to see the Blessed Mother Mary leading many souls back to the Church of her Son, Jesus
Indeed
Great story. Thanks for your story. Will pray for you and your new found faith. God bless you
My observation is that at least 90% of the most theologically and philosophically educates people discern the truth and then become Catholic. While I am not that educated, I am indeed in good company. Keep teaching me, please. God bless!
Thank you for your kind words, more Christian content will come out on this channel! But also, feel free to check my more philosophical and academic channel Philosophy for All

Humility 🔥 Precious One of the Lord
I had an experience with Jesus in 2023. He delivered me. He spoke to me inaudibly and sent me to the catholic church for the truth. He stressed the truth and interpretations of scripture is very important and warned me of the other churches. Not to say He isn't with all Christians. I felt His love for humanity. I sense something is really happening right now and in the church. I don't understand it. Honestly, I was in shock and wasn't 100% grounded until over a year after the experience. I'll be confirmed this Easter. ❤ 🙏
"Stay in prayer." "Be perfect in love." "Read (scripture) daily."
He also spoke to me about feeding the hungry. God bless us all. 🙏 ❤
Convert here as well. Welcome home, brother.
Thank you! God bless
God bless your journey 🙏🏽
Josh, I was paying the rosary one night and started to drift to sleep when I was startled awake by a woman's voice. It was so startling I was looking around the room for the source. Unfortunately, I was not sure what she told me, because I was so surprised by this. She either said "come closer" or "pray slower". I felt a mix of guilt. disappointment, and elation at this, because I was not attentive in my state of drowsiness to clearly hear her speak, but I figure both of those are great advice in prayer and bear good fruit. I was surprised at the way her voice sounded: feminine but strong. If she was the BVM, I had always imagined her to have a higher pitched (soprano) voice, but the one I heard would have been in the alto range if she were singing.
This was so amazing. Mother Mary pulls us in and closer to our Lord. You are awesome brother welcome home.
Best part of Mass…the most deepest connection and love with God are when I reverently say;
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world….brings tears to my eyes and my heart beats for the savior and His mother.
I spent 40 years in Protestantism in many of its forms before falling in love with the Catholic Church. I know what you mean.
That is beautiful to hear! Thank you for sharing
What a beautiful testimony. Thank you for sharing with such honesty and authentic joy
Thank you for the kind words, many blessings

Welcome home, bro!
Thank you!!
Your Asian roots also testify to the spiritual yearning you had that was met in the Catholic Church . China has been waiting for Christ for millennia . The Tang dynasty encouraged the building of over 100 Christian monasteries in the 6 th century . The Eastern roots of Catholicism is deep , and the mystical nature of the Church is still very much alive in that region .
We all pray for its conversion!
China was monotheistic prior to the Common Era; there is a video detailing this history. They called their One God by the name “Shang Di”, meaning “supreme ruler” or “Lord above”.
The mystical spirituality of Catholicism is a rich tradition within the Church, and indeed, it is sometimes the very experience itself of God and grace at work in our human lives that strengthens faith. For all one’s intellect and brilliance, the best is surely when God understands our weakness - including intellectual pride - and works from the simplest point of contact, speaking directly a d interiorly with such joy and peace you know it is a genuine experience by itself. 😊
Indeed the miracles of God are fundamental
When I learned there are degrees of prayer and that anyone can go higher in these degrees up to mysticism, where they begin receiving loads of infused knowledge and actual clearer and bigger amounts of responses from God, then that was it for me... I already had other reasons, but this was the final one. And then when I actually began my conversion process I then had plenty of interesting experiences that showed me I was going the right direction and that I was comming closer to God and He's already communicating with me and teaching me things, giving me light, etc...
My brother was called to the priesthood by voice of the BVM, who identified herself! "I am the BVM, and I am calling you to the priesthood". It was totally unexpected, he was at a Catholic conference and was not actively faithful at all at that time.
I don't mean to be rude but since when does she go over God in that way?
That is a beautiful story Thank you for sharing
It may be helpful to think of BVM as a messenger of God, higher to the angels, but performs a similiar purpose in such appearances. She is NOT God
@@Rickybobby190
Mary doesn't "go over God". Where did you get that idea? She can't do anything that does not comport with God's will.
@joshuayen3 I mean this with respect to your belief but it seems very strange. Of her calling ppl into priesthood or this or the other. Very strange to me in the bible the one thst would call someone into a particular ministry/mission is God. So that's strange to me. And yea in pretty much all chapels there's a statue of virgin mady above all others. That ain't right. So the catholic church praises God or Mary?

Pray for The Restoration of Traditional Latin Mass
You want to listen to a ceremony in a language you can't even speak? Does that make sense to you?
@@cbooth151Read Pope Benedict's 'Ratzinger Report' where he explains many of the innovations that came into use were not meant to be used. Read Vatican II documents to see what they really say. Latin was never meant to be done away with but given 'pride of place' along with English. Gregorian chant also was not meant to be done away with. I grew up with Tradional mass, we can not go back to pre-Vatican mass but to be fair, some of the innovations introduced were not meant to be used

Thank you!
Brent Pitre's books Jewis# Roots of the Eucharist, and J'wish Roots of Mary are gane changers. My spouse converted 4 months ago after 50 years of being hostile to the the faith. The traditional mass also helped reinforce how everything in the apostolic original christian Church is extremely scriptural

Great! Thanks for sharing. This is encouraging for those who are devoted to praying the Holy Rosary of Our Lady for conversions. It's true grace.
It's so touching to hear that you made response to your mystical experience. 有一本關於默主歌耶的書籍，作者原本也是基督教徒，他也是聽到一位女士的聲音，結果變成一位傳揚聖母信息的使者。你的經驗是真實的，超過doctrine,超過senses,是一種直觀，由神直接主動將知識傾注在你心中。我十分為你高興，也請你為我祈禱。

It has to be balanced.

Thank you for sharing. Interesting after you said you converted you body language also calmed down and you seem more at peace.
The voice was either an angel or our Lady who always points us to her Son.
Indeed. The more you look into the intercession and miracles related to Mary, the more convinced you become
God Bless you 🙏
Thank you
I prayed to the Holy Spirit to keep on coming! Well....
Mine was similar. I was an anti-Catholic agnostic. I awoke one day with the strongest voice in me that said clearly “you must go to Catholic Church.” Been Latin Mass for 13 months now.
It's not always about doctrine, but it is always about love.
It’s about both!
My first thought perhaps was that you heard Our Blessed Virgin Mary speak to you. God bless you and welcome! You may be interested in hearing a Protestant pastors conversion story - his name is Keith Nestor and has a channel on you tube. Check it out ❤🙏

Heidegger opened me up to a philosophic skepticism of materialism.
You might want to look at some Eucharistic miracles to pin down this claim of it really being the body and blood of Christ
In your studies of phenomenology, have you come much across St. Edith Stein (aka St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross)? I've only just begun to very amateurishly explore her work, but evidently as a philosopher she was heavily influenced by and did a lot with phenomenology.
Well good news for you, I will be interviewing Dr Sarah Borden on Edith Stein soon on my philosophy channel philosophy for all, so stay tuned to it! Will come out in around a month
Trivia: Peter the Apostle of Christ is the First Pope of the Catholic Church and St. Evodius of Antioch invented the word Christian
Isn't that funny that Luther said the finite cannot contain the infinite? Didn't he see the irony of his finite self trying to contain the infinite with his declaration?
I predicted this.
Not the first time (in fact many) that I've heard of people brought up Protestant are exposed to anti-Catholic remarks at home and in sermons. So it is a reassuring feeling that I and the large majority of Catholics don't hear negative things about Protestants at home or at church simply because we know we are following the church founded by Jesus and barely give other churches a thought which is a waste of time.
I'm a former Protestant and New Catholic. The beauty in the Mass is unmatched. I just left and I feel so rejuvenated in my spirit! And I have a new love for Mary that the Protestant Church denied, saying ,"so what" about our Blessed Holy Queen Mother.
At the same time, they'd say that our Christian lives on earth are rehearsal for what we'll be doing in Heaven. Well then...what was Our Lady doing HERE other than serving God perfectly and bringing people to her Son?
But "so what", right? Ha! Her crowned Majesty is too humble to do it so...HA!
Protestant church doctrine rips faith right out of people! The LORD Jesus tells us that He's ACTIVE in the holy waters of baptism, and that He's ACTIVE in the Eucharist, but they say that it only represents. But Jesus told us these things in TRUTH, and for our ASSURANCE, because He keeps His promises and His word never returns ineffective.
If you're a PROTESTANT of any kind (but especially a Calvinist), LEAVE! It's demonic doctrine that leads people to doubt, deny and apostatize, because they strip God's promises bare with heterodoxical and heretical teachings with faulty 'gymnastics' then have the never to look down upon Catholics as "whores of Babylon", "the apostate Church", and "idol worshipping heretics", because THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND! THE 5 Solas are wrong! They're NOT biblical! Sola Scriptura causes them to almost completely ignore Church history - which would tell them what the ancient faith is EXACTLY - so they could be AGAINST HERESIES...but instead they defy God, formulate their own reasoning in the name of following Him, and thus become their own popes, traveling on the wrong road and leading others astray, in the name of being true to God. THIS IS THE BLASPHEMY OF CALLING GOOD EVIL AND CALLING EVIL GOOD
PETER IS THE ROCK. JESUS SAID SO.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WASHING AND SEALING US IN THE WATERS OF BAPTISM. JESUS SAID SO.
JESUS IS FORGIVING SINS AND RENEWING ETERNAL LIFE IN THE EUCHARIST. IF YOU DON'T EAT HIS FLESH AND DRINK HIS BLOOD, WITH FAITH IN WHAT IMMANUEL (GOD WITH US) SAYS HE'S DOING THERE, THEN YOU HAVE NO LIFE IN YOU. JESUS SAID SO.
Satan wants to knock you off of the straight and narrow road, but he won't present you with a new road to do it. He'll only make you doubt the road that God paved (the Catholic Church), and from there, when you start to doubt God, he knows you'll go your own way onto another road.
Everybody needs to be under the Pope, because that's what Christ ordained with Peter, giving him the Keys and the Chair. He sits in the place of authority over the church on earth as the Vicar of Christ, and he is our universal pastor. Since the Pope sits in Jesus' Chair, if we refuse to do what he says, then we're refusing to listen to CHRIST THE LORD, WHO LEFT HIM IN CHARGE. PERIOD.
You have to believe in the promises of Jesus or they're not YOURS! It's by FAITH! If you don't believe then it's not applied to you! You have NO ACCESS to His promises of forgiveness and eternal life if you don't obey Him, know Him rightly, and believe His words! If He promises, don't bet the house on it, throw it away! Trade in EVERYTHING for Jesus!
The Catholic Church is the ONLY church Jesus built, instituting Peter as the Pope, and He promised that evil wouldn't prevail against it! His Church will stand FOREVER, and that's THE CATHOLIC CHURCH! If you're not part of His Church then...WHO'S IS IT?!? Luther, Calvin and Zwingli didn't die to save your soul!
What a fine man
Welcome home! Christ wanted us all together not separated by misunderstandings and pride!
Edit: Our Mother brought me back home after becoming “spiritual”. She always had a place of honor in our home and I believe that’s what kept me from completely falling. She sent me St Padre Pio to kick my butt back home. The communion of saints is alive and well

Pax et Bonum
Catholics understand that they are outside the world, exactly that is the meaning of the word CHURCH. We operate in two realms, a physical with physical or natural laws and a spiritual realm with another kind of laws. Some saints were allowed to walk both realms at easy. For instance bilocation ( be in two places at the same time), levitation, be suspended in the air, walks the waters as St Mauro, and extraordinary strength as St Christopher. So we have this knowledge of the supernatural as nobody else and no Protestant cannot phantom. Then we know about the inter dimensional spirits called angels and they also are outside of time as God, some of those angels are hate us and want our destruction and that is why we say that we live in constant spiritual battle and Jesus Himself warned us about them and that Lucifer is the Prince of this realm. So the richness of our Faith is limitless, abundant and perfect. Still Vatican is going through very bad period right now, so we focus on Jesus and not the pope right now, we don’t follow people who doesn’t follow God, and God gave us discernment for not fall for fake prophets. Blessings Ye, great job and welcome!!!
Without a second Eve, mankind would still be finished.

Following Rene Descartes meditation
Category 1: Minds
I exist and I am a mind. Therefore Minds exist.
Category 2: Matter
I have feelings. These feelings originate from sensors in what I call my body. The sensors are receptive to stimulation from events created from within my body and from events created from outside my body. The stuff that bring about these events I shall categorise as matter. Thus my body is also made of matter. Therefore Matter exists.
Category 3: Space
My body needs space and matter in general needs space. Matter can exist only in space. Therefore space must exist.
Category 4: Time
My body needs time to change and matter in general needs time for change. Matter can change only in time. Therefore time must exist.
From the above observation I conclude that these 4 categories permeate each other and exist equally with none more abstract or less abstract than another.
Now to the question of the origin of these categories
Could it be that any one or more of these categories can be made from any one or more of the remaining categories? Could these categories transform from one to another?
Matter needs space and time for its existence, therefore without space and time matter will not exist as such matter could not have been the origin of space and time.
From physics it has been observed that space and time can give rise to matter spontaneously. As such matter maybe a result of a localised change to space and time.
So then could space and time be the origin of everything else?
Again from the theory of the Big Bang all space, time and matter originated from this singular event. Therefore space and time could not alone have brought about the other categories.
Since the big bang was an event, could it be that all things are made from events?
Where there is space, time and matter there is always an event.
There can be no space , time or matter without events.
In an instant all of space and the matter is nothing more or nothing less than a set of events. So then space, time and matter is one and the same as a set of simultaneous events from one instant to the next.
From this observation the 4 categories can be reduced to 2 categories
Category 1 : Minds
Category 2 : Events
Now then can minds exist without events. We know that simultaneous events give rise to feeling in minds. We know from special relativity simultaneous events cannot give rise to anything physical or material. Therefore feelings cannot be physical or material. Now as feelings are a part of minds we must conclude minds are not physical.
Now can the mind exist without feelings OR does feelings create the mind, that is one and the same as the mind?
If feeling create the mind then as feelings are created by events then space, time and matter which we have concluded is the same as events, must also have feeling and thus be one and the same as a mind.
Thus we would need to conclude a rock has a mind or is part of a mind to the same extent that my brain is a mind or is part of a mind.
This conclusion is not palatable as such let’s consider the OTHER alternative
Now if a mind can exist without feeling then we also know that the mind can create events. (e.g throw a rock, move a finger)
So then given that the mind can create events then the big bang (The Event) could have originated from The Mind in order to evoke feelings in other minds.
These other minds may have also been created by The Mind such that
the earthly life of each mind is the big bang that determines the eternal or heavenly life of that mind in The Mind.

Rebirth here
you left the fountain of living water to drink from dirty pools by the wayside
Baptist religion in England??
Jesus Christ or Yeshua said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me”. John 14:6
“Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.” Deuteronomy 6:5
We need to pray for spiritual discernment and for the LORD to guard our hearts and minds from the evil one. We need to test teachings and any other feelings or thoughts against Scripture to make sure they align with God’s truth. Always remember the interaction between the evil one and Eve (and Adam) and how they were deceived.
You converted to Catholicism and being Irish.

"Thoughts" and The concept of God
Usage of the word "Thought" in this post is taken to mean anything that is part of a humans conscious experience. Under this definition a sound heard is a thought as much the thoughts going to solve a mathematical puzzle.
Based on the above definition it can be said that all of humanities knowledge consist of "thoughts". For anything to be known by a human it must become a "thought".
In the context of such a definition of "thoughts"
The set of all "thoughts" would fit the concept of God. If you accept Mathematical Platonism then God would exist
The concept of God entails a single entity that has the following properties
Wisdom: The set of all thoughts will contain the perfect answer to every possible question
Infinitude: The set of all thoughts will have an infinite amount of thoughts
Sovereignty: There can be no thought that is not an element of the set of thoughts
Omniscience:The set of all thought is all knowing as it contains all thoughts.
At Lord’s, there have been over 8000 miracles even though not that many have been proven because it’s expensive to get a lot of doctors to compare everything but around the world that over 39 spots where the Blessed Virgin Mary has appeared there have been numerous miracles she wants to help all of us to get to heaven.
Jesus said pick up your cross and follow HIM, so should we obey what Jesus says to do or what the Church says to do?
Do not separate Jesus and the Church
Because Jesus is the head of the Church and the Church is His body. what the Church leaders ought us to do, it's from Jesus Himself. In fact Jesus affirmed the authority of the Church as equal to the authority in heaven. "....whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, whatever you loose on earth will be lose in heaven" (Matthew 16:18-19) that's a strong statement of authority given to the church.
@@davetabuyan2172 So did Jesus say to pray to Mary anywhere in the Bible?
@@waynecornell-w5u. Hahahaha.... Pray to Mary?
What does pray means? pray means to ask in old english. Prayer and Worship are not equal.
Asking prayers to any other christian members is being encourage.
PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER (James 5:16)
PRAY FOR ALL PEOPLE (1 Timothy 2:1-2)
KEEP ON PRAYING FOR ALL THE LORD'S PEOPLE (Ephesians 6:18)
And so many more.....
So if praying for other people does not avai anything my dear, why it is being encourage?? So if there is something good out of praying other people then tell me why do you think it is wrong to ask prayers to your co-chtistian? Mary is a christian so you and me. We are God's people and we are urge to pray for one another. If I pray for you, would it ve useless before the Lord? If you pray for me, will God hids His face and neglect you prayer? If not, and God is willing to listen to each ofcour prayer then it is never wrong to ask prayers from one another.
Now, you might go and proceed, is Mary alive? Mary is dead. No way she could hear our prayers.
I'll answer you the same way Jesus answered the pharisees. "God is God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Jacob. He is not God of the dead, He is God of the living" (Luke 20:37) but it may not make sense to your literal mind because those name Jesus mentioned are even more dead than Mary. but Jesus proceed by saying " ...He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, FOR TO HIM ALL ARE ALIVE" that means, isn't it the promise of Jesus? Whoever believes in Him shall never die? and take note the present perfect tense of the WORD BELIEVES which denotes that until death you kept the faith and surely you'll get you reward. And what reward? Eternal life. Means not dead at all. and even if you died you shall live (John 11:25-26)
we became victor when Jesus finally paid the ultimate price. Death is no longer the end. death is just the beginning. If someone died in the flesh as a christian, it doesnt mean that you will become a non-christian because of your death. In fact even death cannot separate us from the love of God in Christ (Romans 8:38-39). Those who died in Christ are more alive than you think. God is God of the living.
Now if they are alive and with Jesus in heaven. Surely they are still member of the same church. In fact they are our family in heaven (Ephesian 3:15) and a family prays together and stays together.
but I understand if you are not confident in asking Mary or any of your bothers and sisters in heaven. Because you are not even part of the family.
Your family belongs to the people who believe that death is powerful and Christ sacrifice was useless. so go ahead and pray to the father of death.
Brother if you are wise, you will leave the cult of Catholicism and embrace true Christianity, before it is too late.
Fr Ronan Murphy’s conversion story is a good example of what Our Lady can do. He had a mystical experience and became a priest. He is a good and holy priest.

One of the biggest critiques of all Western Europe Protestantism, the one that proves it to be completely and utterly false .
The Catholic Church is not the only apostolic church . Ethiopia is the world’s first Christian nation , never in communion with Rome as it grew organically when st Matthew went there and was martyred. Same with st Thomas traveling to India . The disciples when out into the world . Today we have many apostolic churches from Assyrian to Coptic to Catholic to Greek Orthodox to Ethiopian .
While higher level theology differs , we all believe in the teachings Jesus gave us through his blessed apostles . The real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The role of Mary as Mother of God . The confession of sins to a priest . The role of the saints in our lives .
Separated by hundreds of years , thousands of miles , before communication ,
We all believe and still do believe the same .
So my friend , are all of Jesus apostles wrong , or , is Protestantism ?
What they did, was they removed the spirit from our great faith . And this is why modern Europeans and Americans look to the far east for spiritual growth .
Yes for a short time and generation , you can remove his heavily kingdom and only focus on Jesus . But it’s only a matter of time before we lose to the demons . We need the heavenly court . It’s why God gave us it . Our society in the west is broken because of this . We have lost our spirit
700 years ago in Europe , u can be excused for thinking Catholics were lying when they said they were honoring the true faith . Now we can see. They are

yeah tell me mr. graduate, will one not praying to Mary/saints lose salvation?
Ms. Graduate here. One would risk the loss of his salvation by worshipping or praying to saints as if they were gods, which constitutes idolatry; however, Catholics pray to saints for their intercession with the Triune God.
If you were to read your Bible you would know that it prohibits communication with the dead - Like Mary. Also the Mary of Catholocism always leads devotion and attention to her and not to Christ as the Holy Spirit does.
Sorry brother, but you are wrong on both counts. Mary is not dead. She is the mother of Christ - his first and most devoted disciple. And Christ is the God of the living and not the dead. Mary wants nothing more than for people to come to her Son. It sounds like you have been taught to not understand her or her role. But it's very simple. Christ came to us through Mary. And that is still the case. Mary loves her Son and wants us to follow Him.
@@jeannefernando4937 Why give Mary any attention at all. I would think that Paul would deserve a lot more attention since he fleshed out the Theology. I love Paul, but I don't adore or worship him. He is dead and we are prohibited from speaking to the dead. It's in the Old Testament. God does not change His mind, He is Immutable. So it would be hard to justify speaking or praying to any dead person. I am so glad I left the Roman Catholic Institution. Sola Scriptura!
I don't know what your original church was, but mainline protestantism does not argue the blood and body, is has different mechanics of the sacrifice rather than the material one.
God bless you on your path❤
You said you don't research on the theology and doctrinal side of Christianity. That's why you converted to RC. My experience is, I grew up as a Catholic in a predominantly Catholic country, and studied in a Catholic school. My grandmother and mother are devout Catholics. But I did research on the bible. That's why I left the RC.
Because you did your research using non-Catholic paradigm.
You said you research on the theology and doctrinal side of Christianity. That's why you converted to Prots. My experience is, I grew up as a Catholic in a predominantly secular country, and studied in a Catholic school. My grandmother and mother are cradle Catholics. But I did research on the bible. That's why I am still a RC.
😂😂😂😂😂 the Bible is a Catholic Tradition first. It's actually ours
Feel free to check out some of my doctrinal reasons for being Catholic as well on my philosophy channel, linked in the description

Thanks. I will also suggest to read the bible on its own. Not just a reference for proof text of certain doctrine.
I am a Protestant .........
The Female Voice that you are hearing is the Holy Spirit.
We haven't been taught, that the Holy Spirit is feminine (Skekinah Glory is Feminine, Old Testament)
Our mothers have always been our Comforter and Nurturer.
So The Great Comforter is going to be Reflective of Her.
Father and Mother from Heaven.
An unsurprising comment, considering that Protestants tend to downplay or deny the Blessed Mother’s singular role in salvation history, as well as Her God-given power to communicate with/intercede for Her Children as needed. Pax vobiscum. 📿
Very woke and Sat..anic. Sorry you haven't got to meet our Blessed Mother Mary. She IS a unique woman, so strong and loving at the same time. I used to think She didn't count much on God's Revelation, how wrong I was!!! Read A Treatise On The True Devotion To The Blessed Virgin

I am so tired of TH-cam recommending Catholic videos to me. TH-cam pls stop it.
It just might be a sign ? 🙂
@@maryannerazzano7692Agreed 😊
@maryannerazzano7692 I brought this on myself. I started listening to Catholics on youtube to learn what they believed. I don't think Mary wants me to be Catholic because the more I learn and listen to Catholic apologists and youtube Catholic channels, the less it makes sense to me.
You must ask Holy Spirit to lead you to truth@@JT-ts6nr
@@JT-ts6nr I would say stick to Joe Heschemeyer and the Catholic Answers channel. It's easy to get overwhelmed because once you watch Catholic videos YT starts recommending you some crazy stuff. I also recommend Brant Pitre's "The Jewish Roots of..." books. It provides a foundation that even most Catholics don't know, so you'll be ahead of the game.
And for future reference, there are three vertical dots that appear when you hover over the video title of the home page. If you click them you can choose "Not Interested". This teaches the algorithm what to show you. I'm Catholic but I've been able to filter out the crazy content because of this.
Christ never created any denominations least of all a cult greedy for power and mamon. As Christ said " Where two or more are gathered in my Name, there I shall be among them"
Any church, anywhere, any time.
Any church that celebrates the Eucharist.
We're not a denomination, all the apostolic communions are the original church.
The only church Christ founded, the Holy Roman Catholic Church ❤

Thanks for your kind words!!!
Which country are you from bro ??
Wonderful.
Thank you!
Just because someone says he/she is Catholic it does not mean they live out the catholic teachings and Faith. We have saints and we have sinners. Go to primary sources to find out what the Catholic Faith is all about. After all it is the Church which Christ Himself instituted so it cannot be what a rude or ignorant « catholic » makes you think that Church is.
I thoroughly agree, we all need to reflect on the divine mysteries and on scripture to further our relationships with our Lord
Yes, we even have Judas priests.
Matt. 13:47-50 - God’s plan is that the Church (the kingdom of heaven) is a net which catches fish of every kind, good and bad. God revealed this to us so that we will not get discouraged by the sinfulness of the Church’s members.
