I was an evengelical pastor, evangelist, misionary, theology teacher and a church planter for more than 20 years. I returned to the Catholic Church seven years ago. I credit my conversion the intercession of the Virgen Mary.
Thank you for the kindness of your comment! My wife of almost 30 years was a devout Catholic (being raised in the Philippines) when we started dating, I attended mass about 5-6 times with her. I had a sit-down with a priest, I questioned Catholic friends and purchased several books on the RCC. I have bachelor's and master's degrees in Christian Theology and I'm a Bible teacher. I know the Bible very well and I know how to research. From all that, it was obvious that the RCC was a pagan religion. Catholics pray to idols and dead people, some even worship them. Roman Catholicism teaches a works-based salvation, not simple faith in Christ as taught in the Bible, works has no bearing in our salvation. You venerate a man to be on par with Jesus! I ask a friend once that if the pope spoke ex cathedra and what he said directly contradicted the Bible, which one would he follow, he answered, "The pope". That is so wrong! Neither the pope, nor tradition, trumps the Bible. BTW, my wife started attending church with me and a year later she was saved and baptized and admits that she was not a Christian while in the RCC.
@@whitebeardInn Acts 16:29 The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. 30 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They replied, “well you need to read the catechism and take a long course in what we believe and then add to God's grace of salvation by doing good deeds Sad that the roman Catholic will listen to the roman church first and to the scriptures second if at all.
I was just commenting that as a Catholic, raised in Catholic Schools; having heard countless sermons, vigils, & Masses devoted entirely to Mary this is 1 of the best I've ever heard! --He speaks with reverence, so passionately it's beautiful, inspired❤
@@johnalexis8284 In reference to Gen 3:15, do you know the Lord Jesus was nailed on His hands and feet on the cross? Do you know Jesus defeated death when He was crucified on top of the hill of skull called Golgotha? Jesus, the Word became flesh, the fruit of Mary’s womb did this to save us. God bless you brother ❤
My husband’s Baptist minister preached on Mary two weekends ago, and his eyes filled with tear and he had to stop for a minute. Praying for HIS conversion.
@@michaelpcooksey5096 @ Mary is NOT his His spouse, Mary is Jesus’ mother; the Church is his spouse. If you are trying to say Mary is God’s spouse, that is incorrect, and no Baptists that I know believe that.
@@GodGunsGutsandNRA I understand your lack of information in this arena ... but do confess that in the church capital T tradition Mary is in fact declared as spouse of the Holy Spirit. It was He who placed the Son within her womb [overshadowed by the Holy Spirit] ... and only a spouse is authorized to do so. My allegiance is to the church that existed way way before the Baptist came into being. The data comes from there. Have you ever read the Didache document written around AD 1000? It is a how to worship manual for the church and certain elements are traceable back to AD 70. Also have you ever read documents from St. Ignatius of Antioch?

This is jaw dropping. Literally have tears in my eyes. A Protestant pastor preaching the truth about our Blessed Mother. Never heard it before from a Protestant. There was little doubt you’d become catholic after that awesome sermon
You cannot read the Bible truly paying attention to the Gospel accounts of the Incarnation, and Revelation where John writes about the woman clothed with the sun…and not recognize Mary unless you literally keep your spirit closed.
@SnkrhD13 I believe a few people in the congregation may have started on a journey too. I wonder if he knows of anyone else who may have converted from that day planting seeds.
God’s love for Mary, shows how much God loves each one of us, as His creation and children. God even humbled Himself as a man. That is how precious we all are in the eyes of God. And we do Him honor when we obey Him. God is love, and when we love one another we magnify our God. That’s why our mother Mary , all the angels and Saints honor our God. Holy Holy Holy is our Lord.
History accurately displayed tells amazing things. Check out the Didache Document. It was written around 1000 years ago and elements of it are said to be from around AD 70. It is a how to procedure manual of sorts for the worship service. Also, read the documents from St. Ignatius of Antioch. He was made Bishop by St. Peter himself and likely was tutored by him as well.
Thank you for posting this. I am a Catholic by birth and choice but I have always struggled with the Catholic Church veneration of Mary. I no longer question it. Thanks be to God.
Amen! I totally understand because I was there too. I’m a cradle Catholic but always struggled with the veneration of Mary. This past year, God has opened my eyes to her magnificent place in history. She is the mother of our Lord. Jesus has her DNA. She was chosen above others. Once that truth went from my head to my heart everything changed in the way I saw her. She is the Queen of Heaven because God the Father has bestowed her with this title.❤
Brother Keith, I grew up a Catholic. Like other Catholics, I was a "blind" follower of traditions. This sermon helped me appreciate my faith. You, Steve Ray, Jim Akin and other converts helped me destroy any doubts I have had about the Catholic faith. Although I told myself I'd die as a Catholic, I had doubts and questions about the Catholic traditions, especially the Rosary. I just recently started asking the Holy Spirit to give me wisdom and guidance, and I received them. I love our Holy Mother because she is the mother of our Lord Jesus. But after gaining a much deeper understanding of our Holy Mother's role, I love her even more. I might not be able to remember all the verses in the Bible to defend the Catholic faith, but all my doubts have been erased. I was blind, and now I see. The Holy Spirit is working through you. Thank you, and my our Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your family.
You could not possible be more deceived and more outside of the kingdom of God. You are completely steeped in darkness, deception, and absolute ignorance. Repent, and learn what the truth and the Christianity of the Bible actually is.
@@battyz1 ,...I appreciate you wanting to remember me and pray for me, however, God absolutely does not hear your prayers, nor the prayers of any catholics. Again, you are 100% spiritually dead and blind, and know nothing of the truth or the Christianity of the Bible. You have a 100% different and opposing religion to the Bibles (Jesus's) Christianity. Everything you believe and hold to is all 100% false, manmade, unbiblical nonsense. Mary is dead and in the grave and has never and will never hear a single word any of you completely Biblically illiterate, totally willingly ignorant Godless, blind, lost, and deceived people (catholics) pray to her. You are all accursed of God, all vessels of wrath made only to be destroyed. Get away from the Godless abomination of catholicism, repent, and learn what the truth, the gospel, and the Christianity of the Bible actually is.

I’m 42 year old and left my catholic roots. God wanted me back and has been showing me that my religion was always the right religion and trust me when I say I went down the rabbit hole. Praise Jesus I’m so happy to be home. 🙏🙏🙏
I was a protestant,by God's grace am now a catholic and it has been a great joy walking the journey with Jesus and our blessed Mother Most Holy Virgin Mary
Your research is just incredible, mentioning the Nicene Creed, written and still proclaimed today since the year 321. The Magnificat is icing on the cake! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I’m a born again Catholic. I LOVE your book for new converts! I return to it again and again. You have such a heart for God and for the beauty of the mass and the Eucharist. God Bless you on your Way🕊✝️🕊
I could hardly believe my ears a Protestant Pastor PREACHING about the Blessed Mother in this way with such passion that you wouldnt hear on a Sunday sermon at a Catholic parish. Little wonder you took her as your Mother and SHE brought you to her Son’s Church. ❤❤❤
Thank you for this video. Many people think that we catholics are heretics and that our devotion to the Virgin Mary is wrong. The same Lord Jesus Christ appointed her as our mother and that has a deep meaning that we can’t ignore. The Virgin Mary lovingly acts like our mother and protetor, and prays for us when we are in need. She has not only said yes to being the mother of Jesus but also being our mother and our greatest intercessor.
Every time I see another Protestant put down our Blessed Mother, I will remember this video. And be reminded that even when Keith was still a Protestant, the Lord was pouring His light on him and can do the same for all of them. Bless you Keith!
It really hurts me when Protestants bash our Mother Mary, and the true Church of Jesus Christ. I pray for their conversions. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for those who have recourse to thee🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Why do Protestants bash the mother of God? Is it because there are statues of Mary in the Catholic church so they have to hate Mary because they hate Catholics? Ask them to find hate in the Bible.
Why would anyone pit down Mary 😮! She is the most blessed of all women and she did no evil, so there's no reason for anyone to put her down. This sermon is a fine example of a pastor who isn't really engaged with the word He's rather academic, but without the heart and soul.
@@suew4609Mary was not conceived without sin. She was a normal human being, of the house of David, and betrothed to Joseph, from the house of David . She also had a choice, which the pastor seems to miss
PRAISE GOD FOR KEITH NESTOR! YOU'LL LEAD MORE SOULS TO GOD MORE THAN YOU' LL EVER KNOW! I' M A 76 YO FILIPINA FROM THE PHILIPPINES & AND I LOVE THIS MORNING 🌅 PRAYERS ❤! GRACIAS k
Isn't it so cool that God delayed his conversion until just the right moment so that all his fellow churchmen and women could hear all that first? He is so Great.
As a protestant exploring Catholicism and Eastern orthodoxy having this served up to me today, it was something I needed to hear and think about. Bonus it was presented in a way that allowed me to hear. Thank you for this.
Just remember the Orthodox do not accept the Immaculate Conception or the Rosary or any of her apparitions such as Lourdes, Fatima, Guadalupe. This is reason enough to know they are cut off from the true vine.
Keith, What a powerful sermon! I am in tears. As a cradle Catholic for 67 years, I still can not recite the Magnificat without choking up. How wonderful that the Lord gave us His mother to nurture and teach us perfect obedience to God! Holy Queen of Heaven and earth, pray for us.
Strangely, I secretly memorized the Hail Mary prayer as a child. I was welcomed into the Church when I was in my 60s. God is patient. Father, I must say if you are now a priest, well what a blessing for those who receive your homily at the Masses. Another tidbit, Fr. Ripperger notes that Our Blessed Mother not only said yes, but "she never counted the cost".
Thank you so much Kieth I to am a Protestant becoming catholic and it is because of the Blessed Virgin Mary! Pray for us oh Blessed mother of God and the whole world…
Mary is the best example given by God of how every woman should be. Dedicated to God and His will. No ego, doesn’t complain, doesn’t think of her own image, doesn’t worry about the future, her hands and life is to be holy, just for God. What an example.
Excellent! I am a 76 year old man. I converted to Catholicism in 1970. I grew up in Mississippi, a very non-Catholic state. I cannot be quiet about my Catholicism, but I try to speak of it indirectly, as you have done, hoping much will b taken in. Direct may become counter-productive. Again, well done! God bless!
@@cristiancastro1381the road ends only when we die, my friend. The real necessary thing is our openness of heart. Always. I am catholic since 2 days old. I am now almost 60 years old. And everyday is the day to look in the eyes of Our Lord and ask Him to help me. And His Mother is a gift of Him to us. I hope you have a blessed journey.
I speak the truth with what I tell you. Oct 9, I was healed at “Our Lady of Champion,” Shrine the only approved Apparition site of our Blessed Virgin Mary in USA. I speak not just from our Lady but from God the Father, the Son, & the Holy Spirit. Catholics must see the truth about Nationalism. The prophesies of Marie Julie Jahenny stating: the “horrible religion,” that “many many Bishops embrace,” is not the Novus Ordo Missae aka The New Mass from Vatican 2 that many accepted as such. This false acceptance had a ripple effect through our Church and caused much division and damage to Catholicism throughout the world! The true “horrible religion that “many many Bishops embraced,” is the communist backed Nationalism Movement! In USA it is known as Christian Nationalism and they play a huge role politically with this new party that took over our Republican party in real-time. MAGA’s goal is to dismantle the Constitutional Federal Republic Government of America! To rebuild a government for the needs of this incoming administration and their global multi corporate interests. Christian Nationalists hijacked the Christian name-they are a guise for white supremacy! In America the Nationalist Movement aka “Christian Nationalism,” has one goal-Dismantle Christianity & replace it with Nationalism, (aka Hate). The billionaire backed MAGA along with Nationalism work hand in hand, why Republicans and Democrats must work hand in hand to dismantle them-or America is no longer and religion will no longer exist, exactly what this communist backed, billionaire, private sector, “venture capitalist,” “rogue”government wants, because they strive to dismantle the global system to bring in the NEW WORLD ORDER & lawlessness, so that they can use their reverse engineered “alien technology,” against the people of the world, to have TOTAL CONTROL. This is the work of the EVIL ONE and the LEFT & the RIGHT AND ALL PEOPLE AGAINST the NEW WORLD ORDER MUST WORK TOGETHER! Nationalists teach hate, racism, and they fear diversity-everything that is the integral measures of the Catholic Church! The diverse congregation of all creeds, race, colors, converts of all religions from all nations is the Christian congregation-the body of Jesus Christ. These Nationalists will gather Christians of the 7 main denominations & Catholics up along with Gays, Jews, Blacks-all marginalized groups and persecute us! Please know I speak the truth!
There's a REASON why this video popped up now. An angel may not have appeared to you physically, but your Guardian Angel certainly helped put this amazing talk on your heart! ❤ Thanks, Keith!
I didn’t learn this explanation until I returned to the Church at 49 years old. At that time, the teachings of the Catholic Church had exploded. Bookstores, conferences, EWTN, Bible studies, great sermons, so much available that there is no longer any excuse for not being educated in the faith. It’s our responsibility too for continuing our education. The days of learning through osmosis are over. We now have such a wealth of learning sources that no Catholic should be clueless about the Faith. Thank you, God!
@@Fortis_etFidelis I would because this talk is utterly twisting scripture. The generation of Mary in the RC church is just this... a continuation of the cult of Semiramis. I encourage people to read the scriptures, and certainly not listen to Aimee if the writings about some of the early fathers, the Nagesteruim or Tradition, and especially not the Papacy. This talk is so full of holes it is astonishing. This chap is preaching an entirely different scripture and is certainly nowhere near the gospel of Christ. I just wish people would learn this.
Keith, I was choked up with emotion, and I had tears in my eyes. It’s so difficult trying to defend Mary’s role in discussions with Protestant friends. I'm really hoping your sermon has left me with some powerful quotes and scriptures I can rely on next time. The Lady of Fatima brought me back to church after 48 years. Thank you so much.
Keith I was compelled to watch this sermon and I was completely transfixed by your reverence and respect for our Mother. I am somewhat of a lapsed Catholic but watching you has renewed my fervor for my faith. Thank you.
@MaryFortunato-o4o I will pray for you to act on the prompting of the Holy Spirit to return home. I reverted 24 years ago after a 33 year lapse. I am constantly amazed that Jesus gave us his mother Mary to guide us to him because she is his perfect disciple. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Mary.
@@AmpwichBecause God gave her reverence first. Please re read Luke 1 and meditate in the words of God put through the Angel and Elisabeth. They venerated Mary before anyone else in salvation history. And as an extra read Psalm 45: 9-17 “Kings' daughters were among thy HONORABLE women: upon thy right hand did stand the QUEEN (Rev. 12) in gold of Ophir. Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; So shall the KING GREATLY DESIRE THY BEAUTY: for HE IS THY LORD; and worship thou him (only). And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift (Lk. 1:28); even the rich among the people shall ENTREAT THY FAVOUR (intercession). The king's daughter is all GLORIOUS WITHIN (immaculate): her clothing is of wrought gold. SHE shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins (religious women) her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace (heaven). Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children (mother of the christians) whom thou mayest make princes (bishops) in all the earth. I WILL make THY NAME to be REMEMBERED IN ALL GENERATIONS (Lk. 1:48) therefore shall the people PRAISE THEE FOR EVER AND EVER.”
Keith, I was born into the Catholic Church and returned to the Catholic Church a few years ago when I got engaged with to my fiance. Prior to that I was attending Presbyterian churches (on and off for 14 years). I always wrestled with Mary's role (why we pray the Rosary). Watching this helped me understand way more and I am convicted . That was amazing. Thank you and God bless you!
I happened to stumble onto this video, as a soldier who had a NDE and still growing in the Catholic faith, I want to say thank you, God is definitely using you as a bridge, God be with you in your ministry .

Similar experience for me. Born in a non practicing catholic family, i got faith at 18 by reading the bible, and joined an evangelical church. After 5 years, the pastor ask me to preach some Sundays in the year when he was on vacation. I prepared a sermon about Mary and what the Gospels tells us about her. Like you it was one of my first step to go back to the roman catholic church.
I was born Catholic, a Filipina, and this teaching of yours BRO. KEITH, help me much to know more the rule of the VIRGIN MARY in the Salvation of sinners LIKE ME. 😢🙏📖➕ 28:55 😢😢
I actually had an angel appear in my room at 4:30 a.m. to let me know that my son had had arrived at his destination "all right". I was awakened by the dazzling gold light that filled my room and then she gave me the message that he got there "all right ' and then my room went black. I looked at the clock and it said 4:30. And then l went back to sleep. You're right. Angels are quite big.
I seen one as a child and it was far from traumatizing it still encourages me to this day. I was 4 or 5 and excited to tell my mom in the car. She remembers me experiencing it. It was standing on a house in great glory. And it was taller than the house. To be fair the house is a small house. Near my first house.
Well sir, I'm a lifelong Catholic and I've always loved Mother Mary. As I listened to your sermon my smile only got bigger and bigger and I thought to myself, the only thing that has to happen now is for him to say "yes" just as our Blessed Mother did. Welcome home 🙏 God bless you and keep you. My favourite title for Mary is Ark of the Covenant

So wonderful! Thank you for sharing. My wife when I met her..she's Vietnamese and if she had a religion she was Buddhist. Yet it's like she was waiting and when she came before the tabernacle it was like a flower opening up.. she was love love love open to grace! Her conversion completed my conversion. We must evangelize and be courageous and stand up to the hierarchy bent in hiding the treasure of the faith and the Eucharist especially
And you weren't Catholic? Wow... Praise be to God for He shows us the truth if we are willing to receive it. Glory be to God for He answers when we humbly ask, He opens the doors when we knock, He gives us if we ask of Him... Marvelous!!! God bless you and us all, may our Mother Mary lookout for us!
I'm glad you got a positive response from some of your parishioners. I guess it's much easier for them to accept it from a fellow protestant than from a Catholic. Welcome home, and thank you for your work.
I'm a 28 year old Filipino 🇵🇭 cradle Catholic and I have NEVER left the Catholic Church because of the Grace of God the Abba Father Yahweh Adonai, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ✝️ and God the Holy Spirit 🕊️. I am receiving Mystical experiences from God the Abba Father Yahweh Adonai, my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ ✝️, and the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Keith, this is beautiful. I actually had the thought the other night, “I wonder if I can find this sermon about Mary that Keith talks about in his testimony?”. Sure enough, I see you post this as an upcoming upload this morning and immediately clicked the notification! I stumbled upon your channel shortly after having my own realizations about The Blessed Mother a month ago (my father was a Methodist pastor and I’ve considered myself Protestant until a recent experience I had-I’m still processing it to be honest). Your story has resonated a lot with my Christian upbringing and your willingness to be genuine on this platform is admirable. I never would have imagined I would align with the Catholic Church but I can’t unlearn what God has been revealing to me lately. I sincerely thank you for putting yourself out there and helping me on my own journey. I have been humbled tremendously during this time with how much I have bad-mouthed the Catholic Church in my 29 years of age. Now I pray my Rosary every day and have never felt so spiritually in tune as I do now. Much love from Georgetown, Tx
How wonderful that God is leading you to the one true apostolic Church! One of the best priests I've ever known was a Baptist convert & a Marine as well. He is so reverent and a good and holy priest. When you do join the Catholic Church, be sure to find a church that has a reverent Mass. Find a traditional Latin Mass if you really want to experience the Mass of the ages. It's amazing! God bless you on your journey!
This is so cool. I've heard this story a few times, It's awesome to see it now. I'm reminded of my time when I was very early in Reverting I called myself a "Born again Catholic" I was finding so much Truth studing Christian history, but I wasn't ready to let go of my endeavors to become a protestant pastor. It's what I wanted to do for God, but I had a strong desire to serve God and I was starting to realize that's not what God was Calling to do. God was Calling me to grow closer to Him and figure out what He wanted me to do for Him.
Hi Keith! You came here to Bluffton and you spoke about this sermon. I just found it. I was enthralled! You didn’t learn that from a class in the Catholic Church… You learned that directly from the Holy Spirit. That touched my heart it was absolutely beautiful and you are such a cute guy back then and you still are. Thank you for everything. God bless you Julie.
What a powerful and anointed sermon that was , and in a Protestant Church to boot. I am a convert to the Catholic Church, and as a Protestant I often wondered why they only “ brought out”Mary at Christmas time when a young girl had the role holding the baby Jesus. I always felt that something wasn’t right about that as she played a vital role in our Salvation. Thank God I’m in the Church where she is honored and respected as I’m sure her Son ( Jesus) wants her to be . Thanks Kieth for sharing that sermon. 🙏🕊️
Practicing Catholics know this it should be required for Protestants and perhaps they would then give the Queen of Heaven proper respect and recognition.
@@TheresaCronin-kc6wzYes I agree Catholics know the importance of Mary but I’m afraid most Catholics cannot defend the theology behind our Marian doctrine. Brother Keith put on a master class regarding that defense as a Protestant! 😊
Thank you for sharing that beautiful sermon definitely the blessed mother inspired you and she gave you grace to see the true faith in our Lord through the Catholic faith. God bless you and your family.🙏⛪️😇
Hello Keith, I'm a Catholic. I love your sermon. Yes, I was in tears while i'm listening to your sermon. I'm a fan. I listen to you podcast, and also Dr. Hans
The Godless abomination of catholicism has nothing whatsoever to do with the Christianity of the Bible. It is all a 100% false, manmade, Godless abomination. Repent!
Cradle Catholic here and blessed beyond words for being born into a Catholic family. This is a beautifully moving sermon, Sir, and I am so happy that you listened to God’s call. Pray the rosary every day, go to Mass every day if possible, and pray pray pray to our blessed Mother and our Lord Jesus. 🙏🏻❤️
I speak the truth with what I tell you. Oct 9, I was healed at “Our Lady of Champion,” Shrine the only approved Apparition site of our Blessed Virgin Mary in USA. I speak not just from our Lady but from God the Father, the Son, & the Holy Spirit. Catholics must see the truth about Nationalism. The prophesies of Marie Julie Jahenny stating: the “horrible religion,” that “many many Bishops embrace,” is not the Novus Ordo Missae aka The New Mass from Vatican 2 that many accepted as such. This false acceptance had a ripple effect through our Church and caused much division and damage to Catholicism throughout the world! The true “horrible religion that “many many Bishops embraced,” is the communist backed Nationalism Movement! In USA it is known as Christian Nationalism and they play a huge role politically with this new party that took over our Republican party in real-time. MAGA’s goal is to dismantle the Constitutional Federal Republic Government of America! To rebuild a government for the needs of this incoming administration and their global multi corporate interests. Christian Nationalists hijacked the Christian name-they are a guise for white supremacy! In America the Nationalist Movement aka “Christian Nationalism,” has one goal-Dismantle Christianity & replace it with Nationalism, (aka Hate). The billionaire backed MAGA along with Nationalism work hand in hand, why Republicans and Democrats must work hand in hand to dismantle them-or America is no longer and religion will no longer exist, exactly what this communist backed, billionaire, private sector, “venture capitalist,” “rogue”government wants, because they strive to dismantle the global system to bring in the NEW WORLD ORDER & lawlessness, so that they can use their reverse engineered “alien technology,” against the people of the world, to have TOTAL CONTROL. This is the work of the EVIL ONE and the LEFT & the RIGHT AND ALL PEOPLE AGAINST the NEW WORLD ORDER MUST WORK TOGETHER! Nationalists teach hate, racism, and they fear diversity-everything that is the integral measures of the Catholic Church! The diverse congregation of all creeds, race, colors, converts of all religions from all nations is the Christian congregation-the body of Jesus Christ. These Nationalists will gather Christians of the 7 main denominations & Catholics up along with Gays, Jews, Blacks-all marginalized groups and persecute us! Please know I speak the truth!
Jeez Keith you rocked the greatest hits of Mary in that sermon! Mary is the • New Eve • New Ark • Woman clothed with the sun So many years ago you also still said your catchphrase, “my friends.”
Dude, I’ve been listening to your story since you first told it! I shared it with many many many of my protestant friends and my fallen away family members. I came back to the faith after reading Saint Faustina‘s diary 2006 and God granted me all the promised graces he gave to Saint Faustina this is so heartwarming, listening to you preach about Mary as a protestant and how it brought you to the Eucharist God bless you my Marian Brother!
Wow! That's a very Catholic sermon as a Protestant. You researched all your data so well. God was certainly 🙏 working with you! This is so powerful. Our Lady is so, so amazing and powerful ❤️! Thank you so much for letting us see and experience tge beginning of your conversion.
They would be screaming "In Tongues" profanities lots of profanities. Also saying a woman needs to know her place she is a human woman nothing more, a by product of Adam ( rib ) some are very sick minded and not of God
When Eve spoke in the garden, the fall of man started. When Mary spoke at the wedding, the salvation of man started. Jesus was waiting for those words from Mary for his "time" to come. That was His signal that His mother was ready for the battle.
Jesus only does what he sees the Father doing, John 5:19 [19]Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.
@@jeromepopiel388as Catholics we believe scripture reflects precisely what the Holy Spirit inspired it to convey. Does the Holy Spirit protect every reader at every time? And how could that be possible, given so many contrary interpretations? That is not how it works. Mary is the servant of God (Lk1:38). The servant does the will of their master. Your uncharitable dismissal of Mary, God’s servant, is a dismissal of God’s will. Read scripture, not verses alone. BTW, your verse doesn’t disallow God working through His creation. If you’re a Calvinist and think God’s sovereignty is somehow jeopardized like that, you’ve been misled.
@@mikelopez8564 It is you who are projecting my intention. Mary of course played an important role, but to over play it is also unbalanced . The reason Jesus addresses Mary as "woman" signals a change of relationship Jesus is now her savior, not her child.
@@jeromepopiel388 now you say she ceased to be Jesus mother. Since God is Mary’s savior then and now, there is no change in their relationship. The distinction you’ve added is erroneous and sounds like you’re trying to defend a Calvinist reading to secure a false notion of God’s sovereignty. When Jesus said “Salvation is from the Jews”, would you correct Him? We all know salvation is from God; He did that through the Jews. Holding up exemplary people who cooperate with God is just
@@jeromepopiel388hahahahha.. So when Adam called Eve Woman, is that also mean the same, "I'm your savior"... ? What exactly Woman means in the beginning? Adam called Eve, WOMAN, because of ONE REASON, "she is bones of my bones and flesh of my flesh" Jesus calling His mother Mary, Woman, denotes the importance of Mary's role and she really is. Jesus and Mary shared the same humanity. Jesus is saying that He and His mother shared the same flesh and the same blood. The body and blood that Jesus sacrificed and shed for all of us were the flesh and blood of His very own mother.
I was raised catholic, but really didn't understand her role until a few years ago. Now, I am so grateful to her for all her love and intercession. Thank you for reminding me to pray for the people in my life who aren't practising, and to ask her intercession. It was also cool to hear you reference the Nicene creed, see an Advent wreath, and a loaf of bread and a chalice. Wow, God was preparing your heart.
Wow. That was incredible. ❤ So many of my Prot. family and friends (like my former self) think She was just a regular girl like any one of us, a good, devout Jewish girl but nothing special - almost as if God just randomly picked from the assortment of girls available. They seem to view St. Joseph the same way. My own relationship with and appreciation of Mary has had to grow slowly over the 24 years since my conversion. She is a gentle & patient Mother.
I speak the truth with what I tell you. Oct 9, I was healed at “Our Lady of Champion,” Shrine the only approved Apparition site of our Blessed Virgin Mary in USA.

I don’t normally make comments but I have to thank you for this. This is truly awesome. You spoke about the Blessed Mother in a way that many Catholics could never articulate. And you answered a lifelong question for me because I never put together the pride of Zechariah versus the humility of Mary as to why he was stricken mute. She questions “ how can this be” but now I get that her questioning was pleasing to God because of the humility behind it. Thank you!! God bless you! The Holy Spirit is working through you!!
Thank you, Sir! I have been Catholic my whole life, but just a few months ago I decided to truly focus on my devotion. I have always had reservations about the blessed Mother. A few days ago I asked her to pray for me, so that I may see the truth in her being. THIS IS MY ANSWER!!! Glory be to God! ❤️
This must have made you smile and chuckle to hear yourself. Literally spot on with a lot of Catholic Apologists almost word for word. Minus the big mama lol. Really appreciate your story and your work that you do now as a Catholic convert. God bless you. May all Christian be led to the fullness of Truth.
I am awed beyond words! I am amazed that the then protestant you could speak about Mother Mary like you were a Catholic. Couldn't stop watching this beautiful sermon. Thanks, Keith.
Keith! I am a cradle Catholic who has recommitted to being a fully practicing one.. I have never heard an explanation on Maryology like yours..It was truly THE BEST one...Understandable, relatable, not overly "heady" full of theological words the average layperson doesn't understand.. I am sharing this one with all my family and friends! God Bless you!
Yes, because there would have been another Mary descended from David. There was nothing integral about Mary that required her & only her to give birth to the Lord. However, the Lord chose her, and as a result, she was blessed above all other women. But though she was the mother of Jesus, she was not “Mother of God” as taught by the Roman Catholic church, for the Lord’s divine existence preceded Mary. 29:51 Yes, Mary was “full of grace” just as each of us are when we are saved by God and reborn with a new heart. I ask God everyday to fill me with His grace, & I thank Him everyday for doing so.
@@jmbrown3502 Jesus is God. Mary is His mother.He is God and man, inseparablely, since His incarnation. Mary is the mother of God in the Person of Jesus. Get it now?
@@jmbrown3502so many are so joyful in the comments but maybe some will realize they missed the rapture and humble enough to admit how wrongthey were but many will fall for the deception. With vast amounts of Protestant’s not really understanding the gospel message it is no wonder they fall for this lie. God is no respecter of persons so all believers share equally with Jesus in all the father has. We are joint heirs. So to place Mary in some position to be more greatly blessed is not scriptural at all. How can some believe that without Mary, Jesus would have had no way into this world. How to say you have no clue about Gods abilities without saying so. There are so many flaws in their doctrine I am somewhat convinced that they are going to usher in the anti christ.
@@jmbrown3502wrong; she was immaculately Conceived and perfectly in line with GOD'S Will, humble, and obediant. She never sinned nor even inherited it. Only GOD could speak as to if the idea of her not accepting could have any merit or if she had not accepted whether he would have ever created another Immaculate Conception if Mary Most Most Holy did not accept and say yes to the Divine Plan, but then you are insulting God's Judgement in choosing poorly and HE failed to make the New Ark; but fool HE did not Fail to Create HIS ARK and She is The Immaculate Conception, Mother of God the Son, Bride of the Spirit, a Daughter of the Father. Queen of Heaven.
@ Ok, you are free to believe as you wish. I can see that you are quite emphatic in your dogma, & if that works for you, so be it. However, I will simply point out that none of the doctrines to which you allude are supported by a contextual reading of the Bible excluding apocryphal books. You may have other Catholic sources which support your interpretations, but they too are apart from the Bible & thus non-authoritative. Mary is not eternal in origin, she was born of natural human parents which made her human & therefore under original sin as we all are. She herself sinned before & after God chose her to bear Jesus, but that’s ok because God chooses sinful people to work His Plan. Saul/Paul caused the murder of several Christians, including Stephen in Acts, and sinful as he was, God chose him, & he primarily, to take the Word to the Gentiles. So why are you & others hung up on Mary being sinless? Do you think her sin would somehow contaminate Jesus? Sin is not contagious, though I think the Pharisees thought so since they were aghast at Jesus eating with sinners. So if Mary had to be sinless to carry Mary, then her mother would need to be sinless also in order to not contaminate Mary. And so isn’t Mary’s mother the Grandmother of God and Queen Mother of Heaven? But then what about *her* mother, the great-grandmother of God & Queen Grandmother of Heaven? She had to be holy also, and her mother, and her mother… going all the way back to Eve, holy & sinless before God; the Queen Mother of Creation! Yes? No? If Mary’s mother didn’t need to be holy then Mary did not either, and she was not. She was, as the angel said, “blessed among women”, but she had to also believe, repent, & put her faith in Jesus as any other person who is saved. Jesus was and is the ONLY perfect human who ever lived, the incarnate Son of God. God can use sinful, redeemed people to do great & wondrous things; as He used Paul; as He used Moses, as He used Mary. I will pray for you because you’ve put yourself on a dangerous path. The Lord commands that we are not to worship idols or to pray to any but Him. We are commanded to love & worship the Lord with all our heart, mind, soul, & strength, and to love each other, even Mary, as ourselves. To elevate ANY human to the level of prayer or worship is to make an idol before God. I pray that the Holy Spirit will deliver you from this errant doctrine. 🙏🏼
Keith, this was an amazing sermon. I love 💕 the blessed virgin Our Lady Mother Mary, who has been blessing and helping me since I was a little girl. I can recount so many times Our Lady Mother Mary has been there for me.😇☘️💜💟💚💙💜💟💚💙💜💟💚💙💜💟💚💙☘️😇
The amount of strength it takes to humble yourself Keith, to admit that you were wrong is something we will never fully comprehend as human beings in our spiritual life. You did as Mary did, perhaps not as quickly but nonetheless you humbled yourself. It hurts deep inside to realize you were not only in error but perhaps led others to it. I never fully accomplished my mission to be a self proclaimed " pastor ". Though i was on track....Yet when I realized I was wrong tears were shed and I admitted to all that I was wrong. May God bless you and yours always 🙏 ❤️.
Oh my gosh Keith, that was an amazing sermon! We are so blessed that you’ve come home the the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church!! God Bless you Brother!!!
Wow this was God speaking and calling you to his church. Listening to the sermon is amazingly Catholic and honouring of our lady. We shall continue to pray to convert more souls . Glory be to God.
@@KeithNester,Finally found where I could respond to you and not the many godless Non Christians who hold paganism and doctrines of devils, which you are following. I am neither Catholic which I left in 1973 or Protestant which I left Baptist and non denom churches in 1975. I got saved in A Apostolic Oneness Pentecostal church aka Monarchian which Asolph Harnack termed Modalist. Catholics were never the True Orthodoxy, they are a fraud of gentile Platonic thought and had to formulate and develop the error you are in. Your religion is a murdering one, of millions. Maybe read Foxes book of Martyrs or Martyrs Mirror done by Anabaptists, many who were us Monarchians. Read that your church followed the Justinian Code and the Theodosian Code, that they also enforced the anathema clauses at the end of the Creeds. You follow the false Trinity, false formula title baptism, the false mode of how to baptize,false Mariolotry and the church with godless celibacy and nunneries in Monasticism . Prayers to dead saints, Mary, Angels. You cannot even find anyone teaching this mess in scriptures or hinting at such.All the Apostles were Pentecostal in belief, Oneness in Theological idea, full salvation Soteriologically speaking of Grace, Faith, Belief, Confession, Repentance, Water Baptized, Spirit Baptized and Endurance. Hopefully you lead no one in any mess you believe in now or teach the false Protestant reformation lies. There is One church, it had Clement and Ignatius and Irenaeus and Noetus, Bishops of Rome till 223 a d. as Monarchians. Praxeas, Sabellius, Epigonus and Cleomenes as teachers and leaders. It did no murder, your church did. Maybe you should watch fhe Biblos Network or Steven Gill on Oneness Theology, or Davjd Bernard. Online. Or get Sr. Clinton Willis or Jerry Hayes, Ken Raggio, or Larry Tate to books, to name a few authors. I know you dont believe the Bible.
Awesome preaching, bro. I was an assistant pastor in a Christian Church. Because of my Catholic background I got to introduce the weekly Lord's Supper and I drew upon my Catholic faith. I said, "This is the body and blood of Christ. " I was accused of being too Catholic. Eventually, I returned to the Catholic Church and realized I was starving for the Holy Eucharist. Oh, and I also gained a mother!
WOW 😮 I was also raised Methodist. 50 years ago I met Jesus, but recently through the living testimony of several nuns who have become true friends I have started investigating the Catholic belief system. Bought the Apocrypha and upon reading the church fathers I cannot deny that the Apostles were practicing Catholics. My only hindrance to conversion was the Mary?? I asked the Lord last week to clarify this for me. And here I stumble upon this clip at 4a.m.as I couldn't sleep. I'm blown away at God's faithfulness to me. You are an amazing preacher Keith. Keep up the good work.
Oh my gosh, you're right. Hail full of grace, the Lord is with thee. The Lord was with Mary, BEFORE she was even pregnant! New thought for me. Thank you.
Holy Virgin Mary Undoer of Knots, thank you for working on the loosening of my knot for me. I have no doubt that you can make it all right with the Lord Jesus your son.
You could not possibly be more lost and deceived. You are NOT a Christian, you remain unsaved, totally blind, lost, deceived, and 100% snared into a Godless abomination. Repent!
I was an evengelical pastor, evangelist, misionary, theology teacher and a church planter for more than 20 years. I returned to the Catholic Church seven years ago. I credit my conversion the intercession of the Virgen Mary.
I hope you bring many people back with you! 🙏🌹
@@josepol148 you should credit Jesus. His words alone give everlasting life.
Not good read my comments .
Thank you for the kindness of your comment! My wife of almost 30 years was a devout Catholic (being raised in the Philippines) when we started dating, I attended mass about 5-6 times with her. I had a sit-down with a priest, I questioned Catholic friends and purchased several books on the RCC.
I have bachelor's and master's degrees in Christian Theology and I'm a Bible teacher. I know the Bible very well and I know how to research. From all that, it was obvious that the RCC was a pagan religion. Catholics pray to idols and dead people, some even worship them. Roman Catholicism teaches a works-based salvation, not simple faith in Christ as taught in the Bible, works has no bearing in our salvation. You venerate a man to be on par with Jesus! I ask a friend once that if the pope spoke ex cathedra and what he said directly contradicted the Bible, which one would he follow, he answered, "The pope". That is so wrong! Neither the pope, nor tradition, trumps the Bible.
BTW, my wife started attending church with me and a year later she was saved and baptized and admits that she was not a Christian while in the RCC.
@@whitebeardInn Acts 16:29 The jailer called for lights, rushed in and fell trembling before Paul and Silas. 30 He then brought them out and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31 They replied, “well you need to read the catechism and take a long course in what we believe and then add to God's grace of salvation by doing good deeds
Sad that the roman Catholic will listen to the roman church first and to the scriptures second if at all.
This is AWESOME!!! Keith, before you were Catholic, you were more Catholic than numerous Catholics 😳😳😳
Exactly.
@@Alexander-fr1kk ain’t that a mouth full!
Yes indeed. You are right
Inspite of knowing that he could be stoned, he delivered this amazing homily. May we all have the courage to stand for our Catholic faith.

Thank you accepting the call to guide His sheep.
May the Holy Spirit guides you in everything you do.

Wow for acknowledging that a fuel tanker need fueling too. I hope you will give this video your priestly blessing at my request. It's really deep.

I am a 74 year old Catholic, and this is the best sermon on Mary that I have ever heard.
Prots need to hear the truth. I know because I was one.
Wonderful indeed! Sound, solid Catholic theology.

My husband’s Baptist minister preached on Mary two weekends ago, and his eyes filled with tear and he had to stop for a minute. Praying for HIS conversion.
Baptists try to get as close to the Holy Spirit as possible ... Mary is His spouse. Thank you for sharing
@@michaelpcooksey5096 @ Mary is NOT his His spouse, Mary is Jesus’ mother; the Church is his spouse. If you are trying to say Mary is God’s spouse, that is incorrect, and no Baptists that I know believe that.

This is jaw dropping. Literally have tears in my eyes. A Protestant pastor preaching the truth about our Blessed Mother. Never heard it before from a Protestant. There was little doubt you’d become catholic after that awesome sermon
True. I was surprised. God intervene on his sermon.
Exactly.
You cannot read the Bible truly paying attention to the Gospel accounts of the Incarnation, and Revelation where John writes about the woman clothed with the sun…and not recognize Mary unless you literally keep your spirit closed.
@@jimreilly917 Facts.

Agreed.
I heard Keith speak about this sermon.
It certainly was powerful to hear!
Facts
@SnkrhD13 I believe a few people in the congregation may have started on a journey too. I wonder if he knows of anyone else who may have converted from that day planting seeds.
I was protestant. Then i found the truth of the Catholic church started by Jesus. I knew little about the Immaculate. Now I love her more each day.
Don't forget, Jesus started the Orthodox Church too !
@@roddumlauf9241 And the Orthodox Church separated from the Church Jesus Christ founded upon Peter and the apostles.
God’s love for Mary, shows how much God loves each one of us, as His creation and children. God even humbled Himself as a man. That is how precious we all are in the eyes of God. And we do Him honor when we obey Him. God is love, and when we love one another we magnify our God. That’s why our mother Mary , all the angels and Saints honor our God. Holy Holy Holy is our Lord.

@Rg-hc6or Thanks❤️ I might loose some friends sadly but so far going to the catholic church feels right I don’t feel like something is missing
Welcome home bro.
Welcome home. I am excited for you, because you will discover more than you ever did prior to your conversion.
Ave Maria 🙏🙏🙏
Same here. Best decision I ever made in my 60 years!
Raised agnostic. Been studying Catholicism and Christianity after meeting many humble and wonderful Catholics through my job. This moved me to tears.
History accurately displayed tells amazing things. Check out the Didache Document. It was written around 1000 years ago and elements of it are said to be from around AD 70. It is a how to procedure manual of sorts for the worship service. Also, read the documents from St. Ignatius of Antioch. He was made Bishop by St. Peter himself and likely was tutored by him as well.
Thank you for posting this. I am a Catholic by birth and choice but I have always struggled with the Catholic Church veneration of Mary. I no longer question it. Thanks be to God.
Amen
I think this semon, just explained more than what I have understood being a cradle 4th generation(that we can find) catholic .
Amen! I totally understand because I was there too. I’m a cradle Catholic but always struggled with the veneration of Mary. This past year, God has opened my eyes to her magnificent place in history. She is the mother of our Lord. Jesus has her DNA. She was chosen above others. Once that truth went from my head to my heart everything changed in the way I saw her. She is the Queen of Heaven because God the Father has bestowed her with this title.❤
You’ll never love Mary more than her Son. I guarantee that.
Catholics have fallen far short of their obligation to pass on the faith to the younger generation.
Brother Keith, I grew up a Catholic. Like other Catholics, I was a "blind" follower of traditions. This sermon helped me appreciate my faith. You, Steve Ray, Jim Akin and other converts helped me destroy any doubts I have had about the Catholic faith. Although I told myself I'd die as a Catholic, I had doubts and questions about the Catholic traditions, especially the Rosary. I just recently started asking the Holy Spirit to give me wisdom and guidance, and I received them. I love our Holy Mother because she is the mother of our Lord Jesus. But after gaining a much deeper understanding of our Holy Mother's role, I love her even more. I might not be able to remember all the verses in the Bible to defend the Catholic faith, but all my doubts have been erased. I was blind, and now I see. The Holy Spirit is working through you. Thank you, and my our Lord Jesus Christ bless you and your family.
You could not possible be more deceived and more outside of the kingdom of God. You are completely steeped in darkness, deception, and absolute ignorance. Repent, and learn what the truth and the Christianity of the Bible actually is.
@PullingYououtoftheFire-d6o I will remember you at mass my friend. May the Holy Mother of God obtain your conversion.
@@battyz1 ,...I appreciate you wanting to remember me and pray for me, however, God absolutely does not hear your prayers, nor the prayers of any catholics.
Again, you are 100% spiritually dead and blind, and know nothing of the truth or the Christianity of the Bible. You have a 100% different and opposing religion to the Bibles (Jesus's) Christianity. Everything you believe and hold to is all 100% false, manmade, unbiblical nonsense.
Mary is dead and in the grave and has never and will never hear a single word any of you completely Biblically illiterate, totally willingly ignorant Godless, blind, lost, and deceived people (catholics) pray to her. You are all accursed of God, all vessels of wrath made only to be destroyed.

Again, you are 100% spiritually dead and blind, and know nothing of the truth or the Christianity of the Bible. You have a 100% different and opposing religion to the Bibles (Jesus's) Christianity. Everything you believe and hold to is all 100% false, manmade, unbiblical nonsense.
Mary is dead and in the grave and has never and will never hear a single word any of you completely Biblically illiterate, totally willingly ignorant Godless, blind, lost, and deceived people (catholics) pray to her. You are all accursed of God, all vessels of wrath made only to be destroyed.
Get away from the Godless abomination of catholicism, repent, and learn what the truth, the gospel, and the Christianity of the Bible actually is.

WELCOME BACK !
@@BDGChronicle-ql2rc You say welcome back as if a believer in Christ is not a believer.??
I went to a Catholic men's retreat where he was the speaker. He was on fire and loved every hour of it ✝️
I was a protestant,by God's grace am now a catholic and it has been a great joy walking the journey with Jesus and our blessed Mother Most Holy Virgin Mary
Welcome Home!❤
Your research is just incredible, mentioning the Nicene Creed, written and still proclaimed today since the year 321. The Magnificat is icing on the cake! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I’m a born again Catholic. I LOVE your book for new converts! I return to it again and again. You have such a heart for God and for the beauty of the mass and the Eucharist. God Bless you on your Way🕊✝️🕊
Welcome home!
I could hardly believe my ears a Protestant Pastor PREACHING about the Blessed Mother in this way with such passion that you wouldnt hear on a Sunday sermon at a Catholic parish. Little wonder you took her as your Mother and SHE brought you to her Son’s Church.
❤❤❤
Thank you for this video. Many people think that we catholics are heretics and that our devotion to the Virgin Mary is wrong. The same Lord Jesus Christ appointed her as our mother and that has a deep meaning that we can’t ignore. The Virgin Mary lovingly acts like our mother and protetor, and prays for us when we are in need. She has not only said yes to being the mother of Jesus but also being our mother and our greatest intercessor.
As a Catholic from Aug 30th 1938 - this was very moving to me - God is alive and well !
"God is alive and well!"
Indeed! When HE has a veteran like yourself in His Church.... 1938! Wow! The Lord be praised!
How old were you when you became a catholic.
@@gregkeeyako I?
1 month.
Why?

How did you make that decision?@@hiltonchapman4844
Every time I see another Protestant put down our Blessed Mother, I will remember this video. And be reminded that even when Keith was still a Protestant, the Lord was pouring His light on him and can do the same for all of them. Bless you Keith!
It really hurts me when Protestants bash our Mother Mary, and the true Church of Jesus Christ. I pray for their conversions. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for those who have recourse to thee🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
@@suew4609Amen.
Why do Protestants bash the mother of God? Is it because there are statues of Mary in the Catholic church so they have to hate Mary because they hate Catholics? Ask them to find hate in the Bible.
Why would anyone pit down Mary 😮!
She is the most blessed of all women and she did no evil, so there's no reason for anyone to put her down.
This sermon is a fine example of a pastor who isn't really engaged with the word
He's rather academic, but without the heart and soul.
@@suew4609Mary was not conceived without sin. She was a normal human being, of the house of David, and betrothed to Joseph, from the house of David .
She also had a choice, which the pastor seems to miss
This is one of the most Catholic, most beautiful sermons on Mary that I have ever heard! God Bless and welcome to the Catholic faith.
Holy cow, you even referenced the typology. This was epic for a Protestant congregation to hear.
They needed to hear truth.
Keith you are just too smart to "Protest" for too long 😊

Isn't it so cool that God delayed his conversion until just the right moment so that all his fellow churchmen and women could hear all that first? He is so Great.
As a protestant exploring Catholicism and Eastern orthodoxy having this served up to me today, it was something I needed to hear and think about. Bonus it was presented in a way that allowed me to hear. Thank you for this.
Come HOME. I’m Catholic. Join us. We have the Eucharist.😊 And sometimes donuts after Mass.

May the holy spirit guide you to the truth 🙏☦️✝️
Just remember the Orthodox do not accept the Immaculate Conception or the Rosary or any of her apparitions such as Lourdes, Fatima, Guadalupe. This is reason enough to know they are cut off from the true vine.
@@quiqueglass6738 The Eucharist is the summit, as that is Jesus Himself.
Keith,
What a powerful sermon! I am in tears. As a cradle Catholic for 67 years, I still can not recite the Magnificat without choking up.
How wonderful that the Lord gave us His mother to nurture and teach us perfect obedience to God!
Holy Queen of Heaven and earth, pray for us.
Strangely, I secretly memorized the Hail Mary prayer as a child. I was welcomed into the Church when I was in my 60s. God is patient. Father, I must say if you are now a priest, well what a blessing for those who receive your homily at the Masses. Another tidbit, Fr. Ripperger notes that Our Blessed Mother not only said yes, but "she never counted the cost".
He might become a deacon.
Thank you so much Kieth I to am a Protestant becoming catholic and it is because of the Blessed Virgin Mary!
Pray for us oh Blessed mother of God and the whole world…
Mary is the best example given by God of how every woman should be. Dedicated to God and His will. No ego, doesn’t complain, doesn’t think of her own image, doesn’t worry about the future, her hands and life is to be holy, just for God. What an example.
For all of us. Who ever did the will of God more than she?
Not just women, but all of us should be like her. Humble and God-fearing.
❤
Well said, thank you for the persoective
In that case, isn't she also an example for men, too?
As a fellow Catholic, I am so glad to have stumbled upon this, especially during this month of Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary.
Your worshipping Mary not what pleases God . Come out of that church and God will bless you much more .

Excellent! I am a 76 year old man. I converted to Catholicism in 1970. I grew up in Mississippi, a very non-Catholic state. I cannot be quiet about my Catholicism, but I try to speak of it indirectly, as you have done, hoping much will b taken in. Direct may become counter-productive. Again, well done! God bless!
What made you convert?? Im on my rcia journey currently, still wondering at times if im making the right choice.
@@cristiancastro1381the road ends only when we die, my friend. The real necessary thing is our openness of heart. Always. I am catholic since 2 days old. I am now almost 60 years old. And everyday is the day to look in the eyes of Our Lord and ask Him to help me. And His Mother is a gift of Him to us. I hope you have a blessed journey.
I speak the truth with what I tell you. Oct 9, I was healed at “Our Lady of Champion,” Shrine the only approved Apparition site of our Blessed Virgin Mary in USA.
I speak not just from our Lady but from God the Father, the Son, & the Holy Spirit. Catholics must see the truth about Nationalism. The prophesies of Marie Julie Jahenny stating: the “horrible religion,” that “many many Bishops embrace,” is not the Novus Ordo Missae aka The New Mass from Vatican 2 that many accepted as such. This false acceptance had a ripple effect through our Church and caused much division and damage to Catholicism throughout the world! The true “horrible religion that “many many Bishops embraced,” is the communist backed Nationalism Movement! In USA it is known as Christian Nationalism and they play a huge role politically with this new party that took over our Republican party in real-time.
MAGA’s goal is to dismantle the Constitutional Federal Republic Government of America! To rebuild a government for the needs of this incoming administration and their global multi corporate interests.
Christian Nationalists hijacked the Christian name-they are a guise for white supremacy! In America the Nationalist Movement aka “Christian Nationalism,” has one goal-Dismantle Christianity & replace it with Nationalism, (aka Hate). The billionaire backed MAGA along with Nationalism work hand in hand, why Republicans and Democrats must work hand in hand to dismantle them-or America is no longer and religion will no longer exist, exactly what this communist backed, billionaire, private sector, “venture capitalist,” “rogue”government wants, because they strive to dismantle the global system to bring in the NEW WORLD ORDER & lawlessness, so that they can use their reverse engineered “alien technology,” against the people of the world, to have TOTAL CONTROL. This is the work of the EVIL ONE and the LEFT & the RIGHT AND ALL PEOPLE AGAINST the NEW WORLD ORDER MUST WORK TOGETHER!
Nationalists teach hate, racism, and they fear diversity-everything that is the integral measures of the Catholic Church! The diverse congregation of all creeds, race, colors, converts of all religions from all nations is the Christian congregation-the body of Jesus Christ.
These Nationalists will gather Christians of the 7 main denominations & Catholics up along with Gays, Jews, Blacks-all marginalized groups and persecute us! Please know I speak the truth!
There's a REASON why this video popped up now. An angel may not have appeared to you physically, but your Guardian Angel certainly helped put this amazing talk on your heart! ❤ Thanks, Keith!
I didn’t learn this explanation until I returned to the Church at 49 years old. At that time, the teachings of the Catholic Church had exploded. Bookstores, conferences, EWTN, Bible studies, great sermons, so much available that there is no longer any excuse for not being educated in the faith. It’s our responsibility too for continuing our education. The days of learning through osmosis are over. We now have such a wealth of learning sources that no Catholic should be clueless about the Faith. Thank you, God!
The next time I encounter someone who is curious about the importance of the Blessed Mother I am going to send them here.
Beautifully done.
@@Fortis_etFidelis I would because this talk is utterly twisting scripture. The generation of Mary in the RC church is just this... a continuation of the cult of Semiramis. I encourage people to read the scriptures, and certainly not listen to Aimee if the writings about some of the early fathers, the Nagesteruim or Tradition, and especially not the Papacy.
This talk is so full of holes it is astonishing.
This chap is preaching an entirely different scripture and is certainly nowhere near the gospel of Christ.
I just wish people would learn this.
Let us pray for the conversion of@@hartleyhare251
Keith, I was choked up with emotion, and I had tears in my eyes. It’s so difficult trying to defend Mary’s role in discussions with Protestant friends. I'm really hoping your sermon has left me with some powerful quotes and scriptures I can rely on next time. The Lady of Fatima brought me back to church after 48 years. Thank you so much.
Keith I was compelled to watch this sermon and I was completely transfixed by your reverence and respect for our Mother. I am somewhat of a lapsed Catholic but watching you has renewed my fervor for my faith.
Thank you.
Praise God!!
Welcome back! Say the rosary daily, as that is one of the best weapons against the devil. Spiritual warfare is real. Armor up! And welcome home! ❤️
Why would one have reverence for another human being who isn't divine like God?
@MaryFortunato-o4o I will pray for you to act on the prompting of the Holy Spirit to return home. I reverted 24 years ago after a 33 year lapse. I am constantly amazed that Jesus gave us his mother Mary to guide us to him because she is his perfect disciple. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Mary.
@@AmpwichBecause God gave her reverence first. Please re read Luke 1 and meditate in the words of God put through the Angel and Elisabeth. They venerated Mary before anyone else in salvation history. And as an extra read Psalm 45: 9-17
“Kings' daughters were among thy HONORABLE women: upon thy right hand did stand the QUEEN (Rev. 12) in gold of Ophir. Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; So shall the KING GREATLY DESIRE THY BEAUTY: for HE IS THY LORD; and worship thou him (only). And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift (Lk. 1:28); even the rich among the people shall ENTREAT THY FAVOUR (intercession). The king's daughter is all GLORIOUS WITHIN (immaculate): her clothing is of wrought gold. SHE shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins (religious women) her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace (heaven). Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children (mother of the christians) whom thou mayest make princes (bishops) in all the earth. I WILL make THY NAME to be REMEMBERED IN ALL GENERATIONS (Lk. 1:48) therefore shall the people PRAISE THEE FOR EVER AND EVER.”
May God bless you brother.
Keith, I was born into the Catholic Church and returned to the Catholic Church a few years ago when I got engaged with to my fiance. Prior to that I was attending Presbyterian churches (on and off for 14 years). I always wrestled with Mary's role (why we pray the Rosary). Watching this helped me understand way more and I am convicted . That was amazing. Thank you and God bless you!
Oh Mary conceived without sin,pray for us who have recourse to thee🙏
I happened to stumble onto this video, as a soldier who had a NDE and still growing in the Catholic faith, I want to say thank you, God is definitely using you as a bridge, God be with you in your ministry .

Never expected to hear such sermon on a protestant pulpit.
I am convinced this was divinely motivated.
God bless you pastor Keith!
Now if only I could get my protestant friend to listen to it.
🙂
Similar experience for me. Born in a non practicing catholic family, i got faith at 18 by reading the bible, and joined an evangelical church. After 5 years, the pastor ask me to preach some Sundays in the year when he was on vacation. I prepared a sermon about Mary and what the Gospels tells us about her. Like you it was one of my first step to go back to the roman catholic church.
I was born Catholic, a Filipina, and this teaching of yours BRO. KEITH, help me much to know more the rule of the VIRGIN MARY in the Salvation of sinners LIKE ME. 😢🙏📖➕ 28:55 😢😢
I actually had an angel appear in my room at 4:30 a.m. to let me know that my son had had arrived at his destination "all right". I was awakened by the dazzling gold light that filled my room and then she gave me the message that he got there "all right ' and then my room went black. I looked at the clock and it said 4:30. And then l went back to sleep. You're right. Angels are quite big.
So beautiful! What an amazing gift from God to comfort your broken heart.
I seen one as a child and it was far from traumatizing it still encourages me to this day. I was 4 or 5 and excited to tell my mom in the car. She remembers me experiencing it. It was standing on a house in great glory. And it was taller than the house. To be fair the house is a small house. Near my first house.
Well sir, I'm a lifelong Catholic and I've always loved Mother Mary. As I listened to your sermon my smile only got bigger and bigger and I thought to myself,
the only thing that has to happen now is for him to say "yes" just as our Blessed Mother did. Welcome home 🙏 God bless you and keep you.
My favourite title for Mary is Ark of the Covenant

Yet it's like she was waiting and when she came before the tabernacle it was like a flower opening up.. she was love love love open to grace! Her conversion completed my conversion.

Not so much defends it but proclaims it
And you weren't Catholic? Wow... Praise be to God for He shows us the truth if we are willing to receive it. Glory be to God for He answers when we humbly ask, He opens the doors when we knock, He gives us if we ask of Him... Marvelous!!!
God bless you and us all, may our Mother Mary lookout for us!
I'm glad you got a positive response from some of your parishioners. I guess it's much easier for them to accept it from a fellow protestant than from a Catholic. Welcome home, and thank you for your work.
We praise God for the Virgin Mary, and are OVERJOYED that she freely and willingly said YES. Thank you Mother Mary.

Keith, this is beautiful. I actually had the thought the other night, “I wonder if I can find this sermon about Mary that Keith talks about in his testimony?”. Sure enough, I see you post this as an upcoming upload this morning and immediately clicked the notification!
I stumbled upon your channel shortly after having my own realizations about The Blessed Mother a month ago (my father was a Methodist pastor and I’ve considered myself Protestant until a recent experience I had-I’m still processing it to be honest). Your story has resonated a lot with my Christian upbringing and your willingness to be genuine on this platform is admirable. I never would have imagined I would align with the Catholic Church but I can’t unlearn what God has been revealing to me lately. I sincerely thank you for putting yourself out there and helping me on my own journey. I have been humbled tremendously during this time with how much I have bad-mouthed the Catholic Church in my 29 years of age. Now I pray my Rosary every day and have never felt so spiritually in tune as I do now. Much love from Georgetown, Tx
How wonderful that God is leading you to the one true apostolic Church! One of the best priests I've ever known was a Baptist convert & a Marine as well. He is so reverent and a good and holy priest. When you do join the Catholic Church, be sure to find a church that has a reverent Mass. Find a traditional Latin Mass if you really want to experience the Mass of the ages. It's amazing! God bless you on your journey!
@@laurae.4285 If you want a reverent mass newer priests are it seems better than old.... They seem to be becoming more conservative which is good.

@@juliannacodde8633 Very true. And I do not know anyone like the other brother who begrudges them.
This is so cool. I've heard this story a few times, It's awesome to see it now. I'm reminded of my time when I was very early in Reverting I called myself a "Born again Catholic" I was finding so much Truth studing Christian history, but I wasn't ready to let go of my endeavors to become a protestant pastor. It's what I wanted to do for God, but I had a strong desire to serve God and I was starting to realize that's not what God was Calling to do. God was Calling me to grow closer to Him and figure out what He wanted me to do for Him.
Best sermon about Mama Mary..thanks bro
Hi Keith! You came here to Bluffton and you spoke about this sermon. I just found it. I was enthralled! You didn’t learn that from a class in the Catholic Church… You learned that directly from the Holy Spirit. That touched my heart it was absolutely beautiful and you are such a cute guy back then and you still are. Thank you for everything. God bless you Julie.
What a powerful and anointed sermon that was , and in a Protestant Church to boot. I am a convert to the Catholic Church, and as a Protestant I often wondered why they only “ brought out”Mary at Christmas time when a young girl had the role holding the baby Jesus. I always felt that something wasn’t right about that as she played a vital role in our Salvation. Thank God I’m in the Church where she is honored and respected as I’m sure her Son ( Jesus) wants her to be . Thanks Kieth for sharing that sermon. 🙏🕊️
This should be required viewing, especially for Catholics! It’s so cool this was preached in a Protestant church!
Practicing Catholics know this it should be required for Protestants and perhaps they would then give the Queen of Heaven proper respect and recognition.
@@TheresaCronin-kc6wzYes I agree Catholics know the importance of Mary but I’m afraid most Catholics cannot defend the theology behind our Marian doctrine. Brother Keith put on a master class regarding that defense as a Protestant! 😊

I must read that book! (It is in my pile)
It's Divine Providence that you had this moment to talk about our Blessed Mother. God bless.
Wow! That's a very Catholic sermon as a Protestant. You researched all your data so well. God was certainly 🙏 working with you! This is so powerful. Our Lady is so, so amazing and powerful ❤️! Thank you so much for letting us see and experience tge beginning of your conversion.
Every Protestant should hear this sermon!
I would say EVERY CATHOLIC!!! also
They would be screaming "In Tongues" profanities lots of profanities. Also saying a woman needs to know her place she is a human woman nothing more, a by product of Adam ( rib ) some are very sick minded and not of God
Oh my goodness! I'm only 4 minutes into your sermon from Advent 2016 and my heart is jumping all over this!

Thank you for loving our Mother.
And may the Lord be with you, too 🙏🏻
When Eve spoke in the garden, the fall of man started. When Mary spoke at the wedding, the salvation of man started. Jesus was waiting for those words from Mary for his "time" to come. That was His signal that His mother was ready for the battle.
Jesus only does what he sees the Father doing,
John 5:19
[19]Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

That is not how it works. Mary is the servant of God (Lk1:38). The servant does the will of their master. Your uncharitable dismissal of Mary, God’s servant, is a dismissal of God’s will.
Read scripture, not verses alone.
BTW, your verse doesn’t disallow God working through His creation. If you’re a Calvinist and think God’s sovereignty is somehow jeopardized like that, you’ve been misled.
@@mikelopez8564 It is you who are projecting my intention. Mary of course played an important role, but to over play it is also unbalanced . The reason Jesus addresses Mary as "woman" signals a change of relationship Jesus is now her savior, not her child.
@@jeromepopiel388 now you say she ceased to be Jesus mother. Since God is Mary’s savior then and now, there is no change in their relationship. The distinction you’ve added is erroneous and sounds like you’re trying to defend a Calvinist reading to secure a false notion of God’s sovereignty.
When Jesus said “Salvation is from the Jews”, would you correct Him? We all know salvation is from God; He did that through the Jews.
Holding up exemplary people who cooperate with God is just
@@jeromepopiel388hahahahha..
So when Adam called Eve Woman, is that also mean the same, "I'm your savior"... ?
What exactly Woman means in the beginning?
Adam called Eve, WOMAN, because of ONE REASON, "she is bones of my bones and flesh of my flesh"
Jesus calling His mother Mary, Woman, denotes the importance of Mary's role and she really is. Jesus and Mary shared the same humanity. Jesus is saying that He and His mother shared the same flesh and the same blood. The body and blood that Jesus sacrificed and shed for all of us were the flesh and blood of His very own mother.
I gave your number to a friend of mine way back when I first converted. You helped him immensely. Thank you, Kieth. The Lord be with you.
Wow. God bless
I was raised catholic, but really didn't understand her role until a few years ago. Now, I am so grateful to her for all her love and intercession. Thank you for reminding me to pray for the people in my life who aren't practising, and to ask her intercession. It was also cool to hear you reference the Nicene creed, see an Advent wreath, and a loaf of bread and a chalice. Wow, God was preparing your heart.
Wow. That was incredible. ❤ So many of my Prot. family and friends (like my former self) think She was just a regular girl like any one of us, a good, devout Jewish girl but nothing special - almost as if God just randomly picked from the assortment of girls available. They seem to view St. Joseph the same way. My own relationship with and appreciation of Mary has had to grow slowly over the 24 years since my conversion. She is a gentle & patient Mother.
I speak the truth with what I tell you. Oct 9, I was healed at “Our Lady of Champion,” Shrine the only approved Apparition site of our Blessed Virgin Mary in USA. I was healed from disabling ailment I suffered with for 13 years and excruciating pain from 2016 incident.
I speak not just from our Lady but from God the Father, the Son, & the Holy Spirit. Catholics must see the truth about Nationalism. The prophesies of Marie Julie Jahenny stating: the “horrible religion,” that “many many Bishops embrace,” is not the Novus Ordo Missae aka The New Mass from Vatican 2 that many accepted as such. This false acceptance had a ripple effect through our Church and caused much division and damage to Catholicism throughout the world! The true “horrible religion that “many many Bishops embraced,” is the communist backed Nationalism Movement! In USA it is known as Christian Nationalism and they play a huge role politically with this new party that took over our Republican party in real-time.
MAGA’s goal is to dismantle the Constitutional Federal Republic Government of America! To rebuild a government for the needs of this incoming administration and their global multi corporate interests.
Christian Nationalists hijacked the Christian name-they are a guise for white supremacy! In America the Nationalist Movement aka “Christian Nationalism,” has one goal-Dismantle Christianity & replace it with Nationalism, (aka Hate). The billionaire backed MAGA along with Nationalism work hand in hand, why Republicans and Democrats must work hand in hand to dismantle them-or America is no longer and religion will no longer exist, exactly what this communist backed, billionaire, private sector, “venture capitalist,” “rogue”government wants, because they strive to dismantle the global system to bring in the NEW WORLD ORDER & lawlessness, so that they can use their reverse engineered “alien technology,” against the people of the world, to have TOTAL CONTROL. This is the work of the EVIL ONE and the LEFT & the RIGHT AND ALL PEOPLE AGAINST the NEW WORLD ORDER MUST WORK TOGETHER!
Nationalists teach hate, racism, and they fear diversity-everything that is the integral measures of the Catholic Church! The diverse congregation of all creeds, race, colors, converts of all religions from all nations is the Christian congregation-the body of Jesus Christ.
These Nationalists will gather Christians of the 7 main denominations & Catholics up along with Gays, Jews, Blacks-all marginalized groups and persecute us! Please know I speak the truth!
Loved seeing this! God bless you and keep it up!
@gabiafterhours ~ i watched you in LilaRose’s podcast this morning. Great segment, Praise God✨
Thanks brother, I was hoping you would see this, but didn’t want to spam you 😂
I cry too watching your video. May God Bless the Catholic Church that always recognized the importance of Mary the Mother of God.
I don’t normally make comments but I have to thank you for this. This is truly awesome. You spoke about the Blessed Mother in a way that many Catholics could never articulate. And you answered a lifelong question for me because I never put together the pride of Zechariah versus the humility of Mary as to why he was stricken mute. She questions “ how can this be” but now I get that her questioning was pleasing to God because of the humility behind it. Thank you!! God bless you! The Holy Spirit is working through you!!
Thank you, Sir! I have been Catholic my whole life, but just a few months ago I decided to truly focus on my devotion.
I have always had reservations about the blessed Mother. A few days ago I asked her to pray for me, so that I may see the truth in her being.
THIS IS MY ANSWER!!!
Glory be to God! ❤️
This must have made you smile and chuckle to hear yourself. Literally spot on with a lot of Catholic Apologists almost word for word. Minus the big mama lol. Really appreciate your story and your work that you do now as a Catholic convert. God bless you. May all Christian be led to the fullness of Truth.
Amazing ❤
"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!"
I am awed beyond words! I am amazed that the then protestant you could speak about Mother Mary like you were a Catholic. Couldn't stop watching this beautiful sermon. Thanks, Keith.
Keith! I am a cradle Catholic who has recommitted to being a fully practicing one.. I have never heard an explanation on Maryology like yours..It was truly THE BEST one...Understandable, relatable, not overly "heady" full of theological words the average layperson doesn't understand.. I am sharing this one with all my family and friends! God Bless you!
“Without Mary, Jesus would not have had the flesh and the blood required to secure our salvation.”
Bro, nailed it.
Yes, because there would have been another Mary descended from David. There was nothing integral about Mary that required her & only her to give birth to the Lord. However, the Lord chose her, and as a result, she was blessed above all other women. But though she was the mother of Jesus, she was not “Mother of God” as taught by the Roman Catholic church, for the Lord’s divine existence preceded Mary.
29:51 Yes, Mary was “full of grace” just as each of us are when we are saved by God and reborn with a new heart. I ask God everyday to fill me with His grace, & I thank Him everyday for doing so.
@@jmbrown3502 Jesus is God. Mary is His mother.He is God and man, inseparablely, since His incarnation. Mary is the mother of God in the Person of Jesus. Get it now?
@@jmbrown3502so many are so joyful in the comments but maybe some will realize they missed the rapture and humble enough to admit how wrongthey were but many will fall for the deception. With vast amounts of Protestant’s not really understanding the gospel message it is no wonder they fall for this lie. God is no respecter of persons so all believers share equally with Jesus in all the father has. We are joint heirs. So to place Mary in some position to be more greatly blessed is not scriptural at all. How can some believe that without Mary, Jesus would have had no way into this world. How to say you have no clue about Gods abilities without saying so. There are so many flaws in their doctrine I am somewhat convinced that they are going to usher in the anti christ.
@@jmbrown3502wrong; she was immaculately Conceived and perfectly in line with GOD'S Will, humble, and obediant. She never sinned nor even inherited it. Only GOD could speak as to if the idea of her not accepting could have any merit or if she had not accepted whether he would have ever created another Immaculate Conception if Mary Most Most Holy did not accept and say yes to the Divine Plan, but then you are insulting God's Judgement in choosing poorly and HE failed to make the New Ark; but fool HE did not Fail to Create HIS ARK and She is The Immaculate Conception, Mother of God the Son, Bride of the Spirit, a Daughter of the Father. Queen of Heaven.

Ok, you are free to believe as you wish. I can see that you are quite emphatic in your dogma, & if that works for you, so be it. However, I will simply point out that none of the doctrines to which you allude are supported by a contextual reading of the Bible excluding apocryphal books. You may have other Catholic sources which support your interpretations, but they too are apart from the Bible & thus non-authoritative. Mary is not eternal in origin, she was born of natural human parents which made her human & therefore under original sin as we all are. She herself sinned before & after God chose her to bear Jesus, but that’s ok because God chooses sinful people to work His Plan. Saul/Paul caused the murder of several Christians, including Stephen in Acts, and sinful as he was, God chose him, & he primarily, to take the Word to the Gentiles.
So why are you & others hung up on Mary being sinless? Do you think her sin would somehow contaminate Jesus? Sin is not contagious, though I think the Pharisees thought so since they were aghast at Jesus eating with sinners.
So if Mary had to be sinless to carry Mary, then her mother would need to be sinless also in order to not contaminate Mary. And so isn’t Mary’s mother the Grandmother of God and Queen Mother of Heaven?
But then what about *her* mother, the great-grandmother of God & Queen Grandmother of Heaven? She had to be holy also, and her mother, and her mother… going all the way back to Eve, holy & sinless before God; the Queen Mother of Creation! Yes?
No? If Mary’s mother didn’t need to be holy then Mary did not either, and she was not. She was, as the angel said, “blessed among women”, but she had to also believe, repent, & put her faith in Jesus as any other person who is saved. Jesus was and is the ONLY perfect human who ever lived, the incarnate Son of God.
God can use sinful, redeemed people to do great & wondrous things; as He used Paul; as He used Moses, as He used Mary.
I will pray for you because you’ve put yourself on a dangerous path. The Lord commands that we are not to worship idols or to pray to any but Him. We are commanded to love & worship the Lord with all our heart, mind, soul, & strength, and to love each other, even Mary, as ourselves. To elevate ANY human to the level of prayer or worship is to make an idol before God. I pray that the Holy Spirit will deliver you from this errant doctrine. 🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing. Life long Catholic, here. Great insights; I know more about Mother Mary.
That was very Catholic, so much power!I think you're the first pastor who touched that verses and shared. Im curious about the listeners reaction 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This sermon is gold and a blessing. Thank you for sharing.
Keith, this was an amazing sermon. I love 💕 the blessed virgin Our Lady Mother Mary, who has been blessing and helping me since I was a little girl. I can recount so many times Our Lady Mother Mary has been there for me.😇☘️💜💟💚💙💜💟💚💙💜💟💚💙💜💟💚💙☘️😇
The amount of strength it takes to humble yourself Keith, to admit that you were wrong is something we will never fully comprehend as human beings in our spiritual life. You did as Mary did, perhaps not as quickly but nonetheless you humbled yourself. It hurts deep inside to realize you were not only in error but perhaps led others to it.
I never fully accomplished my mission to be a self proclaimed " pastor ". Though i was on track....Yet when I realized I was wrong tears were shed and I admitted to all that I was wrong. May God bless you and yours always 🙏 ❤️.
Oh my gosh Keith, that was an amazing sermon! We are so blessed that you’ve come home the the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church!! God Bless you Brother!!!
Wow this was God speaking and calling you to his church. Listening to the sermon is amazingly Catholic and honouring of our lady. We shall continue to pray to convert more souls . Glory be to God.
Dooood you even quoted some bishop named Iranaeus! Lol!! Love this. So awesome!
It was probably the first time that had ever happened there.
To be deep in history is to cease being Protestant…John Henry Newman, Anglican convert, Bishop, Cardinal, and Saint.
@@KeithNester,Finally found where I could respond to you and not the many godless Non Christians who hold paganism and doctrines of devils, which you are following. I am neither Catholic which I left in 1973 or Protestant which I left Baptist and non denom churches in 1975.
I got saved in A Apostolic Oneness Pentecostal church aka Monarchian which Asolph Harnack termed Modalist.
Catholics were never the True Orthodoxy, they are a fraud of gentile Platonic thought and had to formulate and develop the error you are in.
Your religion is a murdering one, of millions. Maybe read Foxes book of Martyrs or Martyrs Mirror done by Anabaptists, many who were us Monarchians. Read that your church followed the Justinian Code and the Theodosian Code, that they also enforced the anathema clauses at the end of the Creeds.
You follow the false Trinity, false formula title baptism, the false mode of how to baptize,false Mariolotry and the church with godless celibacy and nunneries in Monasticism . Prayers to dead saints, Mary, Angels.
You cannot even find anyone teaching this mess in scriptures or hinting at such.All the Apostles were Pentecostal in belief, Oneness in Theological idea, full salvation Soteriologically speaking of
Grace, Faith, Belief, Confession, Repentance, Water Baptized, Spirit Baptized and Endurance.
Hopefully you lead no one in any mess you believe in now or teach the false Protestant reformation lies. There is One church, it had Clement and Ignatius and Irenaeus and Noetus, Bishops of Rome till 223 a d. as Monarchians. Praxeas, Sabellius, Epigonus and Cleomenes as teachers and leaders. It did no murder, your church did. Maybe you should watch fhe Biblos Network or Steven Gill on Oneness Theology, or Davjd Bernard. Online. Or get Sr. Clinton Willis or Jerry Hayes, Ken Raggio, or Larry Tate to books, to name a few authors. I know you dont believe the Bible.
Wow wow wow! This is so good. Thank you for sharing this. That was incredible & moved me tears 🥹
Awesome preaching, bro. I was an assistant pastor in a Christian Church. Because of my Catholic background I got to introduce the weekly Lord's Supper and I drew upon my Catholic faith. I said, "This is the body and blood of Christ. " I was accused of being too Catholic.
Eventually, I returned to the Catholic Church and realized I was starving for the Holy Eucharist. Oh, and I also gained a mother!
I was just thinking yesterday that I wanted to show a friend this sermon....if only it existed. And here it is! Thanks.
Love those Godincidents!
That’s amazing! How did it go?!
We should all pray the Magnificat like that!!! Thank you Blessed Mother and Keith for your words, wisdom and love!
WOW 😮 I was also raised Methodist. 50 years ago I met Jesus, but recently through the living testimony of several nuns who have become true friends I have started investigating the Catholic belief system. Bought the Apocrypha and upon reading the church fathers I cannot deny that the Apostles were practicing Catholics. My only hindrance to conversion was the Mary?? I asked the Lord last week to clarify this for me. And here I stumble upon this clip at 4a.m.as I couldn't sleep. I'm blown away at God's faithfulness to me. You are an amazing preacher Keith. Keep up the good work.
Oh my gosh, you're right.
Hail full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
The Lord was with Mary, BEFORE she was even pregnant!
New thought for me.
Thank you.
@carolzappa1804 - an amazing revelation - right there in plain sight - that MOST miss! Blessings on You For Seeing!
Holy Virgin Mary Undoer of Knots, thank you for working on the loosening of my knot for me. I have no doubt that you can make it all right with the Lord Jesus your son.
You could not possibly be more lost and deceived. You are NOT a Christian, you remain unsaved, totally blind, lost, deceived, and 100% snared into a Godless abomination. Repent!
As a Catholic from birth it was something everyone needs to watch and listen to what you had to say! Deo Gratias!
