Father Leonard Feeney was a Jesuit priest who was a best-selling author and radio celebrity in the United States in the 1940s who taught that “there is no salvation outside the Church” in a very literal sense: all those who did not formally enter the Church would go to hell. All un-baptized babies and all adults who did not formally enter the Church - get their name on parish registers - would also go to hell. This put Feeney on a collision course with his archbishop, Boston’s Cardinal Richard Cushing. In 1949, Cardinal Cushing silenced him. Soon after, the Jesuits expelled Feeney from the order. Feeney publicly accused Cushing of heresy, and called upon Pope Pius XII (1939-1958) to issue an ex cathedra (infallible) statement reaffirming the non-negotiable nature of the “outside the Church” doctrine. To Feeney’s apparent surprise, the Holy See refused. Instead, it twice summoned him to appear before the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to explain why he should not be excommunicated. Feeney twice refused. In 1953, Pius XII excommunicated Feeney for heresy.
We MUST follow the True Magisterium which upholds 2000 year old Church Traditions and Teachings which cannot be changed with time. We now have an imposter in St. Peter's chair. He has been changing the ages-old Church teachings, and teaching heresies. We MUST resist him, and follow those faithful bishops, archbishops, and cardinals who upholds the Church Dogmas and Teachings. Anyone who follows this false one will follow him to the eternal pit.

POPE BENEDICT XVI: Pope Benedict XVI says that Catholics should be delighted whenever non-Catholics do what is good or embrace what is true. The pope was reflecting on a passage from the Gospel of Mark, in which “a man who was not among the followers of Jesus had cast out demons in his name” and “the Apostle John, young and zealous, wants to stop him, but Jesus will not allow him.” Pope Benedict said: “Members of the Church should not feel jealousy, but should rejoice if someone from outside the community does good in the name of Christ...” The pope quoted St. Augustine, 4-5th century saint: “Just as one can find that which is not Catholic in the Catholic Church, one can also find something that may be Catholic outside of the Catholic Church.” This, the Pope said, is what Jesus wishes to explain to his disciples, that “good and even miraculous things” can happen outside their circle when others “cooperate with the Kingdom of God” even in small gestures such as “offering a simple glass of water to a missionary.”
All that text is very pleasing, but none of that relates to the heresies that Pope Francis has committed against the word of God! Pope Francis has long been used by Satan to twist and pervert the word of God! He endorsed homosexualism when God clearly already passed His judgment on Homosexuals! Who is that pope to change or twist what the Almighty God has already said? That pope is a heretic, and the Catholic church should demand his resignation!
I listened to this interview in its full length and honestly, it was depressing. I don't see any value in dwelling on the imperfections of the church. People come to the church for many different reasons, but no one expects perfection. You're only going to get out of the church what you put into it. I have a personal philosophy of giving those in leadership and authoritative positions the benefit of the doubt. So often in this world, those who have never walked a mile in those shoes want to be the first in line passing judgment. As laity, we need to pray for Pope Francis, and all clergy, their battle is tough enough without the laity casting stones and throwing darts. I am tired of seeing Catholics cast dispersion on the clergy in our church. That's not the right approach and those that are doing it need to look in the mirror before looking at others.
@@TheCordialCatholic The "shortcomings" is still Christ's Body, and is still protected by Him. If you don't have faith in our Pope you don't have faith in Jesus or His words.
As long as the pope does not remove one of the sacraments that our Lord Jesus established, why be bothered? Maybe the pope wanted to be politically correct but inside his heart he did not mean what he said, that will be between him and our Lord Jesus Christ. I am not at all bothered with these interviews that ask suddenly questions which puts him on the spot. I love the Catholic church which our Lord Jesus established more than what pope Francis will say to the media.
Sometimes we forget the Church is both human and divine, indefectable, and that outside of Her no one can be saved. When I consider those three de fide doctrines, I know that I am in the right place, and Jesus will heal His own Mystical Body.

I can sympathize with the Pope, it can be very difficult to say difficult things that modern people dont like to hear. Unfortunately, for Pope Francis, that is exactly what the Lord calls all Christians, especially his Vicar, to do. Pray for him, pray for our bishops. St. Paul had to call out St. Peter. We need to start talking to our Bishops, we need to write to Pope Francis. Let him know the laity understands the faith and that it is out of our great respect for his office that we want him to stand for the Faith.

To be fair to the Pope, I think he had brought much joy and faith in his recent pastoral visit to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore. Look at the huge huge, crowd there following him. Personally, he had brought peace to all, regardless of race, language or even religion. Indeed he showed us that we can exist together as one in this deeply divided world of hatred and intolerance. For this, I dare to say he is a peace maker. Please continue to pray for him. Do not slam him down with a broad brush. Let God be the ultimate Judge. "Blessed are the peace makers, they will be called children of God.) Mk5:9.
a true shepherd would always play a single tune for the sheep to conform to , but this one plays a cacophony of tunes which not only confuse but lead many astray. I see no excuse for such behaviour at all..
Several times when I was a boy, my dad urged me, “Read for yourself, study for yourself and think for yourself.” It didn’t take me long to realize anyone who does that will, sooner or later, be accused of heresy. Were my parents heretics? I subscribe to several doctrines widely considered heretical (and I think there are more similarities than differences between my parent’s beliefs and practices and mine). 1: Justification is by grace alone through faith alone i.e. directly by God without the necessity of the mediation of a priest on Earth. 2: The primacy of scripture i.e. scripture over traditional interpretations of scripture. Notice I stop short scripture sola because I agree there are other sources of “authority” than scripture alone. 3: The priesthood of all believers. For me, this includes not only the doctrine that a special priesthood of humans on Earth is not necessary but the doctrine that spiritual authority is as available to laity as to clergy and from the same source - the Lord himself. 4: “And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7 Douay translation A study of the Hebrew words translated spirit, hell and soul (as in this verse) seems to indicate that the Greek philosophy of an immortal soul imprisoned in a moral body was entirely foreign to (or maybe even unknown by) the writers of the Hebrew Bible. (See also I Corinthians 15:51-55 & Timothy 6:16.) 5: This, in turn, allows for the belief that hell is not so much a place as an event. “For behold the day shall come kindled as a furnace: and all the proud, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall set them on fire, saith the Lord of hosts, it shall not leave them root, nor branch....And you shall tread down the wicked when they shall be ashes under the sole of your feet in the day that I do this, saith the Lord of hosts.” Malachi 4:2 & 3 Douay translation 6: My mother sometimes used the phrase, “the honest in heart”, which I understood as her way of expression the belief that God will save as many people as he can but intellectually dishonest people would continue to deny the truth regardless of how the evidence is presented to them and, therefore, they will never be “safe to save”, i.e they would infect heaven with their doubts and thereby perpetuate the rebellion begun by Satan. 7: Given all of the above, you might not be surprised that I agree with Pope Francis that (I’m paraphrasing here so feel free to tell me if you think I misunderstood what he said) for a man to lie with a man as with a woman is a sin but it shouldn’t be considered a crime.
I don’t have any problem with Pope Francis’s statement considering the context. The Pope is not speaking to Christians in Europe or North America. His statement is correct especially when looked at from a missionary perspective. The Jesuits were among the first religious congregations to practice inculturation. In other cultures religion and culture do not exist separately. You can say the same about Judaism. You can’t evangelize people by first disregarding their culture. All people have been evangelized through their own culture. In fact, the attempt to civilize and evangelize native Indian Americans failed, but that changed when Our Lady of Guadalupe used native symbols on Juan Deigo’s tilma to evangelize them. John Mbiti, an Anglican Pastor, Philosopher and Theologian, famously said that “Africans are notoriously religious,” not because all Africans were already Christians when the missionaries arrived, but because the concept of God and other Christian elements already existed among African religions before the missionaries arrived. It is in this sense that I believe the Pope is speaking. Only Christianity has full revelation and truth. But it doesn’t mean that the Holy Spirit is not at work in other cultures.
As members of the laity, we have neither the competence nor the authority to make such a pronouncement. All we can do is hold fast to the Faith we have received. Let no one move you from the pillars to which we are moored.
Do you have the authority to make a pronouncement that he is the Pope? If you cannot make a pronouncement that he is the pope, then you cannot make it either way, which means you can't say whether he is or is not the pope. The real answer is that of course you can do both, because if you can do one then you necessarily must be able to do the other.
@stevedoetsch I have no authority to make that pronouncement. The Princes of the Church make their pronouncement, and I am their dutiful servant who gives assent to their pronouncement.

@@boom-botz444you clearly did not read the right translation. Read the Vatican’s translation. He clearly said they are “religions are TRYING to reach God” This is the actual dialogue: One of the things that has impressed me most about the young people here is your capacity for interfaith dialogue. This is very important because if you start arguing, "My religion is more important than yours..." or "Mine is the true one, yours is not true....." where does this lead? Somebody answer. [A young person answers, "Destruction". ] That is correct. Religions are seen as paths trying to reach God. I will use an analogy, they are like different languages that express the divine. But God is for everyone, and therefore, we are all God's children. "But my God is more important than yours!". Is this true? There is only one God, and religions are like languages that try to express ways to approach God. Some Sikh, some Muslim, some Hindu, some Christian. Understood? Yet, interfaith dialogue among young people takes courage. The age of youth is the age of courage, but you can misuse this courage to do things that will not help you. Instead, you should have courage to move forward and to dialogue. I hope you live a devoted life to Christ before trying to judge the Pope. You sit here and criticize the holy father while you don’t even understand what he is actually saying. It’s honestly sad. Do you lack faith that Jesus put someone in charge of our church that won’t lead us to destruction? Pray for Pope Francis and his holy intentions rather than bashing him. I’m sure he would be praying for you rather than bashing you, that’s why he’s the Pope and you’re not. Meanwhile I and the rest of the faithful trying to be HUMBLE Catholics will pray for him.

The Pope is selected by God. The problem the Pope has is same problem Jesus had. The self righteous said, You sit down with prostitutes ,Tax collectors and sinners. For such are the ones get saved.
I believe Pope Francis doesn't mean to desert Jesus, I think it's just his way of being accepted by all religions in the world and ultimately he hopes everyone can find Christ in the end. keep in mind he was a Jesuit known for his cunning in spreading the Gospel.
First of all Keith, I love your channel and the (Catholic) value you and your educated guests provide. With that said, it seems that many misunderstand Pope Francis’ heart. Now, there’s no excusing heretical statements or actions as he’s done, but these Bible verses come to mind: “For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.” - 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 There’s a fine line between worldly subjugation and leading lost souls to repentance. The Pope needs to focus on the latter. I hope that he desires many to be saved by becoming Christians. Certainly not an excellent Pope, but one who established the potential of building bridges to gain more converts for the Lord. Even in ecclesial affairs, Francis sought reconciliation with our Orthodox brothers by meeting with Patriarch Kirill of Russia and boldly (truthfully) stating that “we are of the same baptism.” Amen.
@@johnbrowne2170 not really, at least 6 Popes in the first Millenia were deposed. And 4 had teachings which were later condemned as heresy.

The Pope has done very well in Indonesia, Singapore and gain lots of respect for his views on religious harmony. More people will convert to catholicism with his views.
The teachings of Pope Francis have nothing to do with the teachings of Jesus! Pope Francis is a heretic who invalidates the sacrifice of Jesus! Pope Francis has tried to trample the word of God with lies and heresies. No one should follow or submit to a false leader who lies and perverts the word of God! Why did Jesus lay on the cross if all religions arrive at God? That is heresy! People should be aware of the wolves in sheep's clothing! Submit to Jesus, not to Judas!
There were countless people from different faiths who in their sincere search for God were led to Jesus. And there were also countless people from the Catholic church who were led astray from Jesus. Remember also Matthew 7:21-23, John 6:44, John 6:65. Let’s not be so quick to judge and anger.
Members of the church can be compromised. The pope is the vicar of christ on earth, his representative on earth. We are to be obedient to the teachings of the pope. Only the teachings of the pope "ex-cathedra" or from the seat of Moses is infallible. The Popes poorly worded explanations are not ex-cathedra. What the pope meant is that all religions have some element of truth, but its only the catholic church is 100% true. That is the meaning of the Catholic or Kathalikos meaning TOTALITY of the truth
@@FrJohnBrownSJ what's the difference? Saying that all religions lead to God is heresy. How could that not make him a heretic? Is it because he didn't say it ex-cathedra? A heretic is still a heretic. 🤷🏻♀️
@@1Hope4All I get what you're saying, I think. But if there's no difference between a material heretic and a formal heretic, I bet we're all in trouble. I've got content addressing exactly this, if you're interested.
@@1Hope4Alla material heretic is someone who believes something heretical but isn't aware of it. For instance, an illiterate peasant from 1500 ad thought that Jesus only had a divine will and not both a human and divine will. That's heretical, but the peasant wouldn't be excommunicated or outside of the church for it. A formal heretic is someone who knows something is wrong and continues in their error despite being corrected. I don't know how you can say he's not a formal heretic, only a material heretic. Are we voting in fools who don't know theology to the papacy now? How can someone ignorant of the faith be elected to the papacy? There's no way he's ignorant of the church's teaching. He simply think the church was wrong for 2000 years and knows better. It seems to me that the only way to understand this is that he's a formal heretic.
Revelation 21 talks about “The New Heaven and the New Earth” - check it out. “I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God’. . .’people will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations.” People take different path to God and most gets there.

But yet not one of them has ever wished to be called by such a title, or seized upon this ill-advised name, lest if, in virtue of the rank of the pontificate, he took to himself the glory of singularity, he might seem to have denied it to all his brethren._ And a passage where he says that St Peter himself was not the universal bishop : _Certainly Peter, the first of the apostles, himself a member of the holy and universal Church, Paul, Andrew, John, - what were they but heads of particular communities? And yet all were members under one Head. And (to bind all together in a short girth of speech) the saints before the law, the saints under the law, the saints under grace, all these making up the Lord's Body, were constituted as members of the Church, and not one of them has wished himself to be called universal._ Kyrie eleison ☦️

All orthodox popes rejected the catholicity of Rome until Leo IX who claimed the imperial Insignia of Cesar based on the donation of Constantine, a forgery , and used this to justify his universal juridiction over the entire Church and provoked the schism because he knew no other Patriarchate will accept such an heresy. A dogma proclamed 20 years later in Dictatus Papae. Popes were crowned during their intronisation ever since. Since Vatican 2 the popes have deposed the triple crown of the tiara, are not crowned during the ceremony of intronisation and do not claim to hold the imperial Insignia of Rome anymore.

At least you cannot call Francis the 'Vicar of Christ'. Then papal infallibility which depends on the title has to go as well. Welcome to the Reformation. It is duplicitous to separate his official teaching from his actual teaching. Every blessing.
Being the head of religion and head of state put one in compromising situations. Jesus wasn't head of state when he spoke with Herod and Pilate. The whole structure of Vatican is not biblical.

Protestants DIFFER in DOCTRINES. Catholics DON'T. What the Pope says DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY BECOME A DOCTRINE or an OFFICIAL TEACHING of the Church. When the Pope says controversial things, the OFFICIAL TEACHINGS/DOCTRINES of the Magisterium is NOT AFFECTED, it REMAINS SOLID as ROCK, it DOESN'T CHANGE. So Catholics have the SAME OFFICIAL MAGISTERIAL DOCTRINES, and DOESN'T HAVE the same DOCTRINAL CONFUSION/ DIFFERENCES like Protestants do. And when the Pope says things that cause confusion among Catholics, we follow what the MAGISTERIUM OFFICIALLY PROCLAIMED as DOCTRINE. Unlike Protestants who DOESN'T HAVE an AUTHORITY to turn to TO SETTLE their DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES. Indeed, the Church's MAGISTERIUM is the BULWARK against CONFUSION.

Hello Keith! Where did you get the idea that a Pope can be removed from office? I am struggling to find that answer anywhere online. @@TheCordialCatholic
Matthew 16:13-20. Jesus tells Peter: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (16:19) This is the comment of Jesus on the chair of Peter. For the Pope to excersize his petrine privilege, for me is courageous. Blasphemous? let the heaven be the judge of that!
(Exceprt from Nostra Aetate) Rays of truth reflected in other religions.... In its opening section, concerning Hinduism, Buddhism, and other religions in general, Nostra aetate explains that they “try to counter the restlessness of the human heart, each in its own manner, by proposing ‘ways,’ comprising teachings, rules of life, and sacred rites.” It continues, “The Catholic Church rejects nothing that is true and holy in these religions. She regards with sincere reverence those ways of conduct and of life, those precepts and teachings which, though differing in many aspects from the ones she holds and sets forth, nonetheless often reflect a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men and women” (NA, 2). This is Catholic teaching... the Pope was merely reiterating Vatican II when he said that statement...
I ask myself why traditional Catholics are always doubting, always pending of any confusing words from our pope? Jesus said many things that their apostles didn't understand but they stood steadfast as his disciples. How could one reconcile Jn 6:44 and Jn 14:5? So we need to reach the Father first so that He brings us to Christ? Or we can only reach the Father through Christ? Obviously both statements are true. The first is not talking about salvation. Once being brought to Christ then he can save us. But first we need to reach God. All religions lead us to reach God.
That might be dangerous considering that He has appointed quite a few Cardinals who have even more liberal views than He does. Those Cardinals are now potential successors.
Pope is heretic. Not everyone is a son or daughter of God as he declared in Singapore. Another contradiction by pope is when he said that all are sons and daughters of God. Bible speaks otherwise. Jesus said in John 8:42 “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me. Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. And John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
POPE BENEDICT XVI: ‘Everywhere, on every continent, to whatever people one belongs, every human being is a child of that same Father who is in heaven, and is a brother or sister of everyone else. Christians should treat all people lovingly as members of God’s one family. The Christian community is open to everyone, as all people are capable of knowing the truth of God’s love. Christianity is a living faith open to everyone, and gives witness to God’s love for all people. Therefore, Christians are to slander no one, to be peaceable, considerate, exercising graciousness toward everyone.”
Hey, the Pope said dialogue as opposed to warfare is the correct approach. He also said that all roads lead to God, clearly when you keep in mind his clear statements that Jesus is the basis of our salvation, and that is true for all. Please stop doing this pope bashing!
The Pope is not merely a heretic, but an Apostate. The Patristic theologians were only making an anthropological assertion when referencing "pagan religions partaking in the light of Christ"; they were not making a theological argument or assertion. To speak of ecumenism without the primacy of Christ and need for Water Baptism and conversion is disingenuous at best. Regardless of Bergoglio's own concern for political expedience, lack of clarification on his current teachings is not mere material heresy, but literal Apostacy. So sad to see a valid Pope also become the first Apostate Pope in History. Jesus' Great Commission includes the following imperatives. 1) Evangelize, 2) Preach/Proselytize, 3) Convert, 4) Trinitarian Water Baptism. An exclusion of any of these elements is to presume that one knows better than Jesus Christ Himself. This was precisely the Sin of Judas and Betrayal of Jesus' ministry. Judas was also an Apostle, who also believed he knew better than Jesus, what the Messiah would entail, and falsely believed that by turning Jesus in and avoiding the Cross, Judas could save the Ministry of Christ.
Not heresy? Let me quote Pope Francis: "Jesus," the Pope recalled, "taught us to welcome one another as brothers," adding that "this applies first and foremost to us, Christians, Jews, and Muslims, who worship the One God and who refer, albeit in different ways, to Abraham as father in faith." Islam does NOT worship the same God. "Al-Masih ad-Dajjal, otherwise referred to simply as the Dajjal, is an evil figure in Islamic eschatology who will pretend to be the promised Messiah and later claim to be God, appearing before the Day of Judgment according to the Islamic eschatological narrative. The word Dajjal is not mentioned in the Quran, but he is mentioned and described in the Hadith." So when Jesus returns Islam will consider him the antichrist. Wake up guys!!!!
Jesus never claim to be GOD,he never said to people to worship him nor he said to people to worship priest and popes,he never talk about vatican,santa clauss,christmas,he dont eat pork,he dont drink alcohol,he dont carry a bible kjv,niv,rsv,esv,he never preach the trinity nor the bible,he speak aramaic not latin,greek,italian,english The messiah only worship GOD alone,he is like Moses,Noah,Muhammad,Abraham Jacob,Ishmael,Issac,Joseph,David Salomon,Lot,Job,Jonas,Enoch Adam,Elyahu,Elisha,Aaron,Seth Isaiah,Ezekiel,Joshua,Samuel John the baptist,Zakariya peace be upon them all They all preach strict monotheism,to only worship GOD alone,only one GOD
Obviously you are suffering from extreme biblical illiteracy with a dash of Gospel ignorance mixed with a splash of sheer stupidity.”I am” says Jesus which probably means nothing to you.

Father Leonard Feeney was a Jesuit priest who was a best-selling author and radio celebrity in the United States in the 1940s who taught that “there is no salvation outside the Church” in a very literal sense: all those who did not formally enter the Church would go to hell. All un-baptized babies and all adults who did not formally enter the Church - get their name on parish registers - would also go to hell.
This put Feeney on a collision course with his archbishop, Boston’s Cardinal Richard Cushing. In 1949, Cardinal Cushing silenced him. Soon after, the Jesuits expelled Feeney from the order.
Feeney publicly accused Cushing of heresy, and called upon Pope Pius XII (1939-1958) to issue an ex cathedra (infallible) statement reaffirming the non-negotiable nature of the “outside the Church” doctrine. To Feeney’s apparent surprise, the Holy See refused. Instead, it twice summoned him to appear before the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith to explain why he should not be excommunicated. Feeney twice refused. In 1953, Pius XII excommunicated Feeney for heresy.
My respone in all of this: remain obedient in faith to the magisterium
Amen!
Communion for civilly divorced and remarried living in mortal sin is in the magisterium. Just saying
We MUST follow the True Magisterium which upholds 2000 year old Church Traditions and Teachings which cannot be changed with time. We now have an imposter in St. Peter's chair. He has been changing the ages-old Church teachings, and teaching heresies.

POPE BENEDICT XVI: Pope Benedict XVI says that Catholics should be delighted whenever non-Catholics do what is good or embrace what is true.
The pope was reflecting on a passage from the Gospel of Mark, in which “a man who was not among the followers of Jesus had cast out demons in his name” and “the Apostle John, young and zealous, wants to stop him, but Jesus will not allow him.”
Pope Benedict said: “Members of the Church should not feel jealousy, but should rejoice if someone from outside the community does good in the name of Christ...”
The pope quoted St. Augustine, 4-5th century saint: “Just as one can find that which is not Catholic in the Catholic Church, one can also find something that may be Catholic outside of the Catholic Church.”
This, the Pope said, is what Jesus wishes to explain to his disciples, that “good and even miraculous things” can happen outside their circle when others “cooperate with the Kingdom of God” even in small gestures such as “offering a simple glass of water to a missionary.”
All that text is very pleasing, but none of that relates to the heresies that Pope Francis has committed against the word of God!
Pope Francis has long been used by Satan to twist and pervert the word of God!
He endorsed homosexualism when God clearly already passed His judgment on Homosexuals!
Who is that pope to change or twist what the Almighty God has already said?
That pope is a heretic, and the Catholic church should demand his resignation!
I listened to this interview in its full length and honestly, it was depressing. I don't see any value in dwelling on the imperfections of the church. People come to the church for many different reasons, but no one expects perfection. You're only going to get out of the church what you put into it. I have a personal philosophy of giving those in leadership and authoritative positions the benefit of the doubt. So often in this world, those who have never walked a mile in those shoes want to be the first in line passing judgment. As laity, we need to pray for Pope Francis, and all clergy, their battle is tough enough without the laity casting stones and throwing darts. I am tired of seeing Catholics cast dispersion on the clergy in our church. That's not the right approach and those that are doing it need to look in the mirror before looking at others.
Thanks for your feedback. I thought Dr. Chapp was very thoughtful and empathetic with his remarks while emphasizing the shortcomings of the Church.
You are 100% correct, I feel the same way. Benefit of the doubt.
@@TheCordialCatholic The "shortcomings" is still Christ's Body, and is still protected by Him. If you don't have faith in our Pope you don't have faith in Jesus or His words.
As long as the pope does not remove one of the sacraments that our Lord Jesus established, why be bothered? Maybe the pope wanted to be politically correct but inside his heart he did not mean what he said, that will be between him and our Lord Jesus Christ. I am not at all bothered with these interviews that ask suddenly questions which puts him on the spot. I love the Catholic church which our Lord Jesus established more than what pope Francis will say to the media.
Sometimes we forget the Church is both human and divine, indefectable, and that outside of Her no one can be saved. When I consider those three de fide doctrines, I know that I am in the right place, and Jesus will heal His own Mystical Body.
Good reminder: We can have a Pontif who is a “clunker” but he not cannot change the infallible official teachings of the church.
No one or thing is infallible except God.
He can but the Roman Catholic Church and it Faithful have to weather his civil control till he is gone; then the papal conclave need to chuse a Military (one that goes back to the letter of the Scriptures) Pope to right and rite the Roman Catholic Church;

Nu, Jesus Christ was Also thought to be a "clunker" by the elders! !Of course, you are simply providing your own fallible opinion regarding Pope Francis! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink
@@matthewbroderick6287
I would suggest you read the Vulgata and 1611 KJV be cause his Name was not Jesus; the Roman Military carved IESVS over his head; it Iesu in the Vulgata, it Iesus in 1611 KJV since the Letter J did not enter the English language until 1640s; and connect Jesus to the past will take a Military 9109 Sentinel to do that in this Day and Age;
I can sympathize with the Pope, it can be very difficult to say difficult things that modern people dont like to hear. Unfortunately, for Pope Francis, that is exactly what the Lord calls all Christians, especially his Vicar, to do.
Pray for him, pray for our bishops. St. Paul had to call out St. Peter. We need to start talking to our Bishops, we need to write to Pope Francis. Let him know the laity understands the faith and that it is out of our great respect for his office that we want him to stand for the Faith.
If you go against the pope, you get demoted. Several bishops/archbishops got demoted and stripped of their office for only disagreeing with the Pope.

To be fair to the Pope, I think he had brought much joy and faith in his recent pastoral visit to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor and Singapore. Look at the huge huge, crowd there following him. Personally, he had brought peace to all, regardless of race, language or even religion. Indeed he showed us that we can exist together as one in this deeply divided world of hatred and intolerance. For this, I dare to say he is a peace maker. Please continue to pray for him. Do not slam him down with a broad brush. Let God be the ultimate Judge.
"Blessed are the peace makers, they will be called children of God.) Mk5:9.

4:33 🤣 A clunker! Yes! After all, Peter was a clunker! 🤣
Several times when I was a boy, my dad urged me, “Read for yourself, study for yourself and think for yourself.” It didn’t take me long to realize anyone who does that will, sooner or later, be accused of heresy.
Were my parents heretics?
I subscribe to several doctrines widely considered heretical (and I think there are more similarities than differences between my parent’s beliefs and practices and mine).
1: Justification is by grace alone through faith alone i.e. directly by God without the necessity of the mediation of a priest on Earth.
2: The primacy of scripture i.e. scripture over traditional interpretations of scripture. Notice I stop short scripture sola because I agree there are other sources of “authority” than scripture alone.
3: The priesthood of all believers. For me, this includes not only the doctrine that a special priesthood of humans on Earth is not necessary but the doctrine that spiritual authority is as available to laity as to clergy and from the same source - the Lord himself.
4: “And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7 Douay translation A study of the Hebrew words translated spirit, hell and soul (as in this verse) seems to indicate that the Greek philosophy of an immortal soul imprisoned in a moral body was entirely foreign to (or maybe even unknown by) the writers of the Hebrew Bible. (See also I Corinthians 15:51-55 & Timothy 6:16.)
5: This, in turn, allows for the belief that hell is not so much a place as an event. “For behold the day shall come kindled as a furnace: and all the proud, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall set them on fire, saith the Lord of hosts, it shall not leave them root, nor branch....And you shall tread down the wicked when they shall be ashes under the sole of your feet in the day that I do this, saith the Lord of hosts.” Malachi 4:2 & 3 Douay translation
6: My mother sometimes used the phrase, “the honest in heart”, which I understood as her way of expression the belief that God will save as many people as he can but intellectually dishonest people would continue to deny the truth regardless of how the evidence is presented to them and, therefore, they will never be “safe to save”, i.e they would infect heaven with their doubts and thereby perpetuate the rebellion begun by Satan.
7: Given all of the above, you might not be surprised that I agree with Pope Francis that (I’m paraphrasing here so feel free to tell me if you think I misunderstood what he said) for a man to lie with a man as with a woman is a sin but it shouldn’t be considered a crime.
I don’t have any problem with Pope Francis’s statement considering the context. The Pope is not speaking to Christians in Europe or North America. His statement is correct especially when looked at from a missionary perspective. The Jesuits were among the first religious congregations to practice inculturation. In other cultures religion and culture do not exist separately. You can say the same about Judaism. You can’t evangelize people by first disregarding their culture. All people have been evangelized through their own culture. In fact, the attempt to civilize and evangelize native Indian Americans failed, but that changed when Our Lady of Guadalupe used native symbols on Juan Deigo’s tilma to evangelize them.
John Mbiti, an Anglican Pastor, Philosopher and Theologian, famously said that “Africans are notoriously religious,” not because all Africans were already Christians when the missionaries arrived, but because the concept of God and other Christian elements already existed among African religions before the missionaries arrived.
It is in this sense that I believe the Pope is speaking. Only Christianity has full revelation and truth. But it doesn’t mean that the Holy Spirit is not at work in other cultures.
Keith you’re doing some great work on your channel. Lots of growth and robust conversation. Great discussion.
As members of the laity, we have neither the competence nor the authority to make such a pronouncement. All we can do is hold fast to the Faith we have received. Let no one move you from the pillars to which we are moored.
Do you have the authority to make a pronouncement that he is the Pope?
If you cannot make a pronouncement that he is the pope, then you cannot make it either way, which means you can't say whether he is or is not the pope.
The real answer is that of course you can do both, because if you can do one then you necessarily must be able to do the other.
@stevedoetsch I have no authority to make that pronouncement. The Princes of the Church make their pronouncement, and I am their dutiful servant who gives assent to their pronouncement.

@@boom-botz444you clearly did not read the right translation. Read the Vatican’s translation. He clearly said they are “religions are TRYING to reach God”
This is the actual dialogue: One of the things that has impressed me most about the young people here is your capacity for interfaith dialogue. This is very important because if you start arguing, "My religion is more important than yours..." or "Mine is the true one, yours is not true....." where does this lead? Somebody answer. [A young person answers, "Destruction". ] That is correct. Religions are seen as paths trying to reach God. I will use an analogy, they are like different languages that express the divine. But God is for everyone, and therefore, we are all God's children. "But my God is more important than yours!". Is this true? There is only one God, and religions are like languages that try to express ways to approach God. Some Sikh, some Muslim, some Hindu, some Christian. Understood?
Yet, interfaith dialogue among young people takes courage. The age of youth is the age of courage, but you can misuse this courage to do things that will not help you. Instead, you should have courage to move forward and to dialogue.
I hope you live a devoted life to Christ before trying to judge the Pope. You sit here and criticize the holy father while you don’t even understand what he is actually saying. It’s honestly sad. Do you lack faith that Jesus put someone in charge of our church that won’t lead us to destruction? Pray for Pope Francis and his holy intentions rather than bashing him. I’m sure he would be praying for you rather than bashing you, that’s why he’s the Pope and you’re not. Meanwhile I and the rest of the faithful trying to be HUMBLE Catholics will pray for him.

I believe Pope Francis doesn't mean to desert Jesus, I think it's just his way of being accepted by all religions in the world and ultimately he hopes everyone can find Christ in the end.
keep in mind he was a Jesuit known for his cunning in spreading the Gospel.
Do you follow the 10 commandments to attain salvation as the RCC teaches? Yes or no?
Fr Nix asked an interesting? The other day. Is Francis Catholic. Not is he pope but is he Catholic?
First of all Keith, I love your channel and the (Catholic) value you and your educated guests provide. With that said, it seems that many misunderstand Pope Francis’ heart. Now, there’s no excusing heretical statements or actions as he’s done, but these Bible verses come to mind:
“For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law. To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.”
- 1 Corinthians 9:19-23
There’s a fine line between worldly subjugation and leading lost souls to repentance. The Pope needs to focus on the latter. I hope that he desires many to be saved by becoming Christians. Certainly not an excellent Pope, but one who established the potential of building bridges to gain more converts for the Lord. Even in ecclesial affairs, Francis sought reconciliation with our Orthodox brothers by meeting with Patriarch Kirill of Russia and boldly (truthfully) stating that “we are of the same baptism.” Amen.
I’m not even Catholic, but I miss Pope Benedict & Pope JPII. 😭

Members of the church can be compromised. The pope is the vicar of christ on earth, his representative on earth. We are to be obedient to the teachings of the pope. Only the teachings of the pope "ex-cathedra" or from the seat of Moses is infallible. The Popes poorly worded explanations are not ex-cathedra.

You are like saint Peter, not when he spoke words inspired by God but when he talked his own human thoughts and Christ told him to step behind Him.
You shall step behind Jesus as well and stop talking according to your human will in contradiction of the Word of God.
Lord have mercy on us all sinners.
Kyrie eleison ☦️
To go to the prisoner you must go to the prison. , to be locked up to preach and bring up.
Has Jesus not gone down to your level to bring you up? Should we we not go down to a child level to bring them up,
If you have to "fact check" your "pope", it means you don't have a Pope. If you truly believe Francis is your Pope, then he is the Supreme Teacher of the Church and out of obedience you have to accept his teaching.
I’m Orthodox and whilst i had such great respect for the previous popes that i thought unity was inevitable, now I’m glad we won’t see unity:
Amen☦️
Orthodox here. In a letter to saint John the Faster, saint pope Gregory the Great wrote: _"Whoever calls himself universal bishop, or desires this title, is, by his pride, the precursor to the Antichrist."_
How did we end up 1500 years later with a majority of Christians believing the exact opposite?
Lord have mercy on us all sinners.
Kyrie eleison ☦️
Pope Gregory isn't talking about universal jurisdiction
Know what he also ssaid?The holy see holds authority even over the patriarchs.
Please do not quote mine if you do not understand the context.
I can quote eastern fathers and even st maximus who affirmed papal supremacy
@@vaderkurt7848 I quoted saint Gregory the Great word fir word. You gave us your interpretation. Universal Juridiction was not claimed until Leo IX and he did so based on the donation of Constantine, claiming the imperial Insignia of Rome. Not the succession of st Peter.
@@vaderkurt7848 Here is another passage of saint Gregory the Great's letter where he speaks about his own holy see to say that he's not the universal bishop :
_Was it not the case, as your Fraternity knows, that the prelates of this Apostolic See which by the providence of God I serve, had the honour offered them of being called universal by the venerable Council of Chalcedon. But yet not one of them has ever wished to be called by such a title, or seized upon this ill-advised name, lest if, in virtue of the rank of the pontificate, he took to himself the glory of singularity, he might seem to have denied it to all his brethren._
And a passage where he says that St Peter himself was not the universal bishop :
_Certainly Peter, the first of the apostles, himself a member of the holy and universal Church, Paul, Andrew, John, - what were they but heads of particular communities? And yet all were members under one Head. And (to bind all together in a short girth of speech) the saints before the law, the saints under the law, the saints under grace, all these making up the Lord's Body, were constituted as members of the Church, and not one of them has wished himself to be called universal._
Kyrie eleison ☦️
@@Hope_Boat Also due to poor quote mining and not understanding the context (not just mere interpretation)
Pope Gregory also stated this specifically asides from the 12th epistle.
"The Apostolic See is, by the ordering of God, set over all Churches."-GreRome.
"the See of Constantinople is subject to the Apostolic See," -Gregory
"Through the observance of such custom both the Apostolic See may retain the power belonging to it, and at the same time may not diminish the rights which it has conceded to others."-Gregory
"If any of the four patriarchs had done such a thing," he wrote again to a bishop who had disobeyed his orders [ii:50], "such contumacy could not have been passed over without the gravest scandal."-Gregory
@@vaderkurt7848 You are changing the subject. The orthodox Church never contested the primacy of Rome. As our Lord said the greatest is like the youngest. Themis is translated into the Latin statement Primus inter pares, first among equals.
Primacy is not supremacy.
Primacy is not universality (Catholicism)
Saint Gregory the Great explicitly rejected the catholicity of Rome.
All orthodox popes rejected the catholicity of Rome until Leo IX who claimed the imperial Insignia of Cesar based on the donation of Constantine, a forgery , and used this to justify his universal juridiction over the entire Church and provoked the schism because he knew no other Patriarchate will accept such an heresy.
A dogma proclamed 20 years later in Dictatus Papae. Popes were crowned during their intronisation ever since.
Since Vatican 2 the popes have deposed the triple crown of the tiara, are not crowned during the ceremony of intronisation and do not claim to hold the imperial Insignia of Rome anymore.
You are more papist than the popes.
He needs to read the bible
No, Pope Francis has not undermind the prevention 2 papacies. I bet one million dollars before Jesus Christ, this guest has never read any of the encyclicals of Pope Francis or his Biblical commentaries! Sadly, people like this, like the poor, will always be among us! Peace always in Jesus Christ our Great and Kind God and Savior, He whose Flesh is true food and Blood true drink!
He denied Christ. Flat out. Shame on him.
PF sometimes goes too far in being outreachy.
At least you cannot call Francis the 'Vicar of Christ'. Then papal infallibility which depends on the title has to go as well. Welcome to the Reformation. It is duplicitous to separate his official teaching from his actual teaching. Every blessing.
Being the head of religion and head of state put one in compromising situations. Jesus wasn't head of state when he spoke with Herod and Pilate. The whole structure of Vatican is not biblical.
A Protestant response. So much for the magisterium being a bulwark against confusion. This Pope ‘s comments have caused nothing but confusion.
this is just between the ultra conservative catholics and and the pope.... compared thousands of protestants whose teaching depends on just the pastor... hahah
@@SammyVerra You keep fooling yourself into thinking that is true if it makes you feel better. Lol! BTW I think you mean’t “compared to”.
@@paulsmallwood1484 you feel the same way... karma
Protestants DIFFER in DOCTRINES. Catholics DON'T. What the Pope says DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY BECOME A DOCTRINE or an OFFICIAL TEACHING of the Church. When the Pope says controversial things, the OFFICIAL TEACHINGS/DOCTRINES of the Magisterium is NOT AFFECTED, it REMAINS SOLID as ROCK, it DOESN'T CHANGE. So Catholics have the SAME OFFICIAL MAGISTERIAL DOCTRINES, and DOESN'T HAVE the same DOCTRINAL CONFUSION/ DIFFERENCES like Protestants do. And when the Pope says things that cause confusion among Catholics, we follow what the MAGISTERIUM OFFICIALLY PROCLAIMED as DOCTRINE. Unlike Protestants who DOESN'T HAVE an AUTHORITY to turn to TO SETTLE their DOCTRINAL DIFFERENCES. Indeed, the Church's MAGISTERIUM is the BULWARK against CONFUSION.

For my education, is it possible for the Pope to be removed? and if so, how and what would the Pope need to do be removed? Thank you.
Yes, a Pope can be removed by the College of Cardinals if they were to find him unfit.
Hello Keith! Where did you get the idea that a Pope can be removed from office? I am struggling to find that answer anywhere online. @@TheCordialCatholic
@@TheCordialCatholic has this ever even happened? Does not the Pope select the Bishops who make up the College of Cardinals?
Matthew 16:13-20. Jesus tells Peter: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (16:19) This is the comment of Jesus on the chair of Peter. For the Pope to excersize his petrine privilege, for me is courageous. Blasphemous? let the heaven be the judge of that!
(Exceprt from Nostra Aetate) Rays of truth reflected in other religions....
In its opening section, concerning Hinduism, Buddhism, and other religions in general, Nostra aetate explains that they “try to counter the restlessness of the human heart, each in its own manner, by proposing ‘ways,’ comprising teachings, rules of life, and sacred rites.” It continues, “The Catholic Church rejects nothing that is true and holy in these religions. She regards with sincere reverence those ways of conduct and of life, those precepts and teachings which, though differing in many aspects from the ones she holds and sets forth, nonetheless often reflect a ray of that Truth which enlightens all men and women” (NA, 2). This is Catholic teaching... the Pope was merely reiterating Vatican II when he said that statement...
@@rogieignacio9324Amen! Sad to see so much hate for Pope Francis.
@@denisbeaulieu3004 Yes Sir! In His Time, Jesus was hated by the pharisees... the pope as follower of Jesus will be treated the same way.
Jesus was the one who said no one can go to the father except brought me. Oh and you shall have no other gods before me.
No, you can judge Francis right out of the Bible.
He is a heretic. Period
@JoyToTheWorld-v2f❤
I ask myself why traditional Catholics are always doubting, always pending of any confusing words from our pope? Jesus said many things that their apostles didn't understand but they stood steadfast as his disciples. How could one reconcile Jn 6:44 and Jn 14:5? So we need to reach the Father first so that He brings us to Christ? Or we can only reach the Father through Christ? Obviously both statements are true. The first is not talking about salvation. Once being brought to Christ then he can save us. But first we need to reach God. All religions lead us to reach God.
We need to hold a conclave to elect a successor to Pope Benedict.
That might be dangerous considering that He has appointed quite a few Cardinals who have even more liberal views than He does. Those Cardinals are now potential successors.
Pope is heretic. Not everyone is a son or daughter of God as he declared in Singapore.
Another contradiction by pope is when he said that all are sons and daughters of God. Bible speaks otherwise. Jesus said in John 8:42
“If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me. Why do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word. You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.
And John 1:12
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
POPE BENEDICT XVI: ‘Everywhere, on every continent, to whatever people one belongs, every human being is a child of that same Father who is in heaven, and is a brother or sister of everyone else. Christians should treat all people lovingly as members of God’s one family. The Christian community is open to everyone, as all people are capable of knowing the truth of God’s love. Christianity is a living faith open to everyone, and gives witness to God’s love for all people. Therefore, Christians are to slander no one, to be peaceable, considerate, exercising graciousness toward everyone.”
A pope who doesn't believe the Bible What's new?
Hey, the Pope said dialogue as opposed to warfare is the correct approach. He also said that all roads lead to God, clearly when you keep in mind his clear statements that Jesus is the basis of our salvation, and that is true for all. Please stop doing this pope bashing!
The Pope is not merely a heretic, but an Apostate. The Patristic theologians were only making an anthropological assertion when referencing "pagan religions partaking in the light of Christ"; they were not making a theological argument or assertion. To speak of ecumenism without the primacy of Christ and need for Water Baptism and conversion is disingenuous at best. Regardless of Bergoglio's own concern for political expedience, lack of clarification on his current teachings is not mere material heresy, but literal Apostacy. So sad to see a valid Pope also become the first Apostate Pope in History.
Jesus' Great Commission includes the following imperatives. 1) Evangelize, 2) Preach/Proselytize, 3) Convert, 4) Trinitarian Water Baptism. An exclusion of any of these elements is to presume that one knows better than Jesus Christ Himself. This was precisely the Sin of Judas and Betrayal of Jesus' ministry. Judas was also an Apostle, who also believed he knew better than Jesus, what the Messiah would entail, and falsely believed that by turning Jesus in and avoiding the Cross, Judas could save the Ministry of Christ.
Not heresy? Let me quote Pope Francis: "Jesus," the Pope recalled, "taught us to welcome one another as brothers," adding that "this applies first and foremost to us, Christians, Jews, and Muslims, who worship the One God and who refer, albeit in different ways, to Abraham as father in faith." Islam does NOT worship the same God. "Al-Masih ad-Dajjal, otherwise referred to simply as the Dajjal, is an evil figure in Islamic eschatology who will pretend to be the promised Messiah and later claim to be God, appearing before the Day of Judgment according to the Islamic eschatological narrative. The word Dajjal is not mentioned in the Quran, but he is mentioned and described in the Hadith." So when Jesus returns Islam will consider him the antichrist. Wake up guys!!!!
This clunker ain’t the biggest problem with the false church but he’s a big part of it.
Jesus never claim to be GOD,he never said to people to worship him nor he said to people to worship priest and popes,he never talk about vatican,santa clauss,christmas,he dont eat pork,he dont drink alcohol,he dont carry a bible kjv,niv,rsv,esv,he never preach the trinity nor the bible,he speak aramaic not latin,greek,italian,english
The messiah only worship GOD alone,he is like Moses,Noah,Muhammad,Abraham
Jacob,Ishmael,Issac,Joseph,David
Salomon,Lot,Job,Jonas,Enoch
Adam,Elyahu,Elisha,Aaron,Seth
Isaiah,Ezekiel,Joshua,Samuel
John the baptist,Zakariya peace be upon them all
They all preach strict monotheism,to only worship GOD alone,only one GOD
Obviously you are suffering from extreme biblical illiteracy with a dash of Gospel ignorance mixed with a splash of sheer stupidity.”I am” says Jesus which probably means nothing to you.
