The vlog title is totally false and misleading. Daniel Alexander was never an ordained Catholic priest. Javier, you should correct the title and present the truth. Also, I found the interviewee’s testimony to be convoluted. In relating his stories he cites events that are not in chronological order, and locations that are out of place relative to his story . . . Very confusing and hard to follow. Javier, please correct your click bait title.
@@javiersblog2083 Your vlog heading is still incorrect and false. A Catholic minister is equivalent to a Catholic priest. Daniel Alexander was neither. He is simply a former Catholic. Javier, please make the correction.
The title of this video is at best incorrect. At worst, it is dishonest click-bait. Others have already commented that the person discussed is not now nor ever has been a Catholic Priest. Since the title has not been corrected, it is not truthful. Dishonesty has nothing to do with godliness. A good tree produces good fruit. A bad tree produces bad fruit.
David should be informed about this video!! I have followed him from the start. Aside from the fact he was taught by Sister Missionarys everything else is untrue! Where did they find this Guy?
Welcome to this blessed joyfully restart. Is not the only Catholic priest to be baptized into the church of JESUSCHRIST OF Latter-days' saints. I have known several of them, and pretty much of a similar journey and a new glorious beginning...I was a convert too from the same church 40 years ago.
That’s very sad. Because you don’t believe in the Father, Son and Holy Ghost! The Trinity! The Bible says anyone who does not is a false prophet and that’s why The Mormons are a cult and false doctrine! You can only get to heaven through Jesus Christ!
Not for nothing but this video should be taken down for your own credibility. Alexander was not a Catholic priest and did not serve in the Catholic Church in any capacity. Plus he even have the wrong location on wear this story took place. There are many things wrong with this video. Comes off as a fake story, actually is a fake story.
The short answer is yes. Same as anyone else. Especially with some people's ideas of what being Born Again means. Some believe all you have to do is say that you're a sinner and accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, once saved, always saved, so it doesn't matter what they do after that, they can keep being Catholic, Jew, Muslim or Atheist, and they are Born Again because they did the work of saying a prayer claiming Jesus Christ as their Savior.
Fake headline. Clickbait alert. Mormon lies. David Alexander was not a priest. He left the Catholic church because the church wouldn't approve his divorce.
It's not lies, just mixed up information on both interviewer and interviewed. No lies were intended here, but many, many mistakes. I've listened to David Alexander since right before his baptism into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints which was 15 months ago.
Really, David was married when he was 12 and left the Catholic Church to follow the Cultural Revolution? He did go back and investigate the Catholic Church, though he never rejoined, but he wasn't yet married then either. This guy with all his mistakes spoke more truth than you have.
This is a story that has been recycled many times. What you hear here is just a sloppy version of this whole wives tale about a Catholic priest that looks for the authority and can’t find it until we walked into an LDS service or met with the missionaries.
My testimony of the church is strong but this guys way of doing things is kind of wacko. Getting a small amount of people, along a few a bad apple because they don't believe you, is very cult-ish and brainwash-y. The gospel is very plain and clear. Doesn't require anything but the simpleness of the gospel. The restored gospel. It's frustrating when people with strong testimonies are tricked by the adversary into saying they have revelations on how to do things. This is wrong.
This story is important because he humbly and sincerely sought the Lord's guidance, with real intent. He didn't just rely on his own understanding, as too many people do. He sought the confirmation of the Holy Ghost, as we are admonished to do in Moroni 10 :4 of The Book of Mormon.
@@bartonbagnes4605 He is giving lots of details about "Catholic things" that are absolutly not Catholic. The story is an absolute lie. So the guy speaking is either a liar or stupid.... Now, if I'm going to go on camera about a story that was told to me, I would certainly get the stroy straight.
@@rafaelposada2399 Are you saying you have experience with every variation of Catholicism, of which there are many, especially since Vatican II. If not, then you can't be sure what he's saying about Catholicism isn't true. Afterall everywhere the Catholic Church forced conversion the people didn't stop worshiping their old gods, they just made slight changes to make the ceremonies more Catholic and called their gods by the name of Jesus or the Saints.
@bartonbagnes4605 I appreciate your efforts to teach me about my faith (like how many different Catholic Churches are there after Vatican Council), but respectfully, your question shows you don'tunderstand catholicism either. There aren't many kinds of Catholicism, you are either in Comunion with the magisterium or you are not. There are dissidents, but they are not Catholic, and the vast majority of people that call themselves Catholics are not dissidents
@@rafaelposada2399 Sounds more like an opinion or excuse to me. The facts don't agree. Besides one of the signs of a false religion given in the Bible is forbidding to marry, which the Catholic Church started doing in the second century A.D., or what would become the common or popular church, that the word Catholic means, though it only became common by torturing and killing those who refused to join. Another sign given for false churches is forbidding to eat meat, which the Catholic Church does every Lent. Jesus Christ also said call no man father, which the Catholic Church does, even Pope means father in another language. Could Jesus Christ and his Apostles have spelled it out any plainer? The Pagan Emperor Constantine chose one of the many Christian sects at random, and with the might of the Roman Empire told them to come up with something to unify them or destroy those who refused. And without any help or authority from God, they came up with the Trinity based on the Pagan Gnostic form, God the Father, and his Word (Logos), and his Wisdom (Sophia), a female entity that replaced the always male Holy Spirit/Ghost, this being the form of the Trinity given by Theophilus, the first to use the word Trinity. It took hundreds of years of men arguing and making changes before they settled on the current form of the Trinity. Again without authority or help from God.
Words spoken by an ignorant, brainwashed person. It's so much easier to listen to gossip than to make an honest effort to learn the truth for yourself.
@@Fred-mp1vf You call me ignorant and brainwashed, yet you offer no real argument against my claims that both Catholicism and Mormonism are Satanic Cults. Children come with personal attacks, adults come with arguments.
@@dougbrown8331 Because it is a false religion. The more you study the actual first writings from Joseph Smith, you will uncover how it has evolved and modified to be more palatable. So many Mormons only look to Mormon resources, and this is because the church leadership accuse other historical writers as being enemies of the church. So much hidden from the faithful membership. I should know, I was a born member who finally left the church after 40 years. It was devastating to find that what I thought was divine, was a huge manipulation.
@@DrewWahnon Drew you couldn’t be more wrong. Look at all the different denominations today, if the teachings of so called Christian churches was true their wouldn’t be a new church every time someone belonging to one of them got offended or but hurt. Also nobody has the keys to the priesthood. And they change doctrine to fit contemporary social norms. Gods doctrine doesn’t change but the modern churches most certainly do! There was absolutely a need for the restoration.
@@dougbrown8331 show me a verse from the Bible that mentions keys to the priesthood? And you forgot one giant problem….. there were always difference in the churches even in Pauls day or he would not have been correcting them. My goodness, Christ said His words would never pass away, yet we find here a religion based upon Christ’s words passing away and needs to be restored
@@DrewWahnonThe Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-day Saints isn't a works based religion. Who told you that lie? Sure Paul said salvation is grace THROUGH FAITH, and he also says faith WORKETH by love, and sure James says that by WORKS a man is justified and not by faith only and that by WORKS is faith made perfect. But it's not the works that guarantee salvation. Because Jesus Christ fully paid for all sins, he has the ability to give grace or punishment based on obedience to his teachings and commandments. So two people could do all the same things, one out of love for God and his neighbors, and the other out of a scene of obligation, but because faith worketh by love, only the first would receive grace. That is why those who have not the law, who do by nature the things in the law, are a law unto themselves.
So why are you here, though? Aren't you happy or are you feeling insecure with your denomination?. I was a Baptist, and not happy with the easy gospel they preach over and over and over plus I didn't see the authority of the holy priesthood in accion, so I started asking GOD and I received a personal revelation. Directly from God not a man. The Lord told me to move out and come straight to the church of JESUSCHRIST OF LATTER-DAYS SAINTS. Filled with the Holy Ghost constantly, and I know something that you don't know. Believe me. Blessed day.
@@franklebatista1091 Jeremiah speaks of those who cause themselves to dream dreams. The fact is you were never born again and still are dead in your sins. The gospel is easy. Why? Because Jesus paid it all. Your problem is not baptist, your problem is rejecting the simplicity that is found in Christ, who btw was God manifest in the flesh.

David lived in Australia now in America

It was the temple in Pocatello where David went first
Actually, David did baptisms in the temple in 2023 in NSW Australia, before moving to Idaho earlier this year. He took out his endowment March, 2024.
