    You could tell Dr. John Bergsma has made alot of Sacrifices especially to get Catholic, he set down his own pride. I am sure he has done more sacrifices and has felt compassion and love for our Lord to be Catholic and he is an inspiration to us all.

    we are so undeserving of God's love and mercy, but Jesus loved us so much that he came to save us, that too brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Lord.

    Only a person who has made tremendous sacrifice can speak the way you spoke, Dr Bergsma. Not only can they speak but one is given the authority fm God to continue doing so, as long as one remains in Him. Thank u so much Dr for the very insightful msg. God bless you and all those at the St Paul Renewal Ministry.

    Nailed it, The workers who complained don't have a true relationship with the land owner. Therefore the labour was done for purely self interest and not for the kingdom.Thank you Dr Bergsma btw I had purchased you audio lessons on the dead sea scrolls for catholics simply mind blowing thank you again God Bless you and your family always.
    p/s: to those who are listening don't gamble with your soul conversion on a death bed is simply wishful thinking one would be converting purely because of fear and not for the Love of God also for every sin committed there will be consequences that we'll have to bear.

    Dr. John should have mentioned Purgatory in that, Purgatory is the place where all those who repented on their deathbed can “catch up” so to speak to all the ones who made sacrifices for Christ while on Earth. While lifelong Christians earned graces to remove the stain of sin in order to be purified, on Earth, requiring little or no time in Purgatory; so too, these souls who repented on their deathbed, in Purgatory will be fully cleansed in another way, as through “fire”, cleansed, and given full grace, in order to equally enjoy the beatific vision. Dr. John said, "those of us that freely give ourselves our entire lives will never regret the deeper intimacy that we are going to be able to have with god". Is it not that we all will experience a close relationship and intimacy with God, it’s just that some will have to spend time in Purgartory in the “refiner’s fire” to be purified sufficiently before being presented in Heaven.

    • @ibatan4336
      @ibatan4336 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Maybe, unfortunately, we do not know much abt Purgatory. We do not have verses that describe the condition of the Purgatory. What you have stated may be true but it is based on human logic (which I hope it would be true).

    • @crazyedswonderfulworldofso9370
      @crazyedswonderfulworldofso9370 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Scripture is full of references to Purgatory the Church Fathers, and some saints, interpreted as burning, as in fire, indicating we can assume it will be very painful and not at all pleasant.

  • @jamesmorrissey2297
    @jamesmorrissey2297 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I understand what you're trying to get across. However, the parable is describing the landowner, labourer relationship as a pretty cut and dried enterprise. None of the grandiose language usually used when the kingdom of heaven is described Thanks and God Bless.

      @Max Wylde Right, in the anne catherine emmerich's private visions, she accounts on the Holy Family (run-away from Herod) journey to Egypt that they were almost mugged by a group of outlaws but one of them, touched by God, prevent the rest of thieves of any wrong doing to them. He took them to his shack with his family to spend the night.
      Then Mary asked for water to bath baby Jesus, and after she finished the thief guy (who was lame) by accident touched that water and was healed.
      Right away they took that water out to bath one of their little sons who was isolated because he had leprosy. That little boy was Dimas.
      In the same way, she tells that the little boy Jesus put in the middle of the disciples to say that to enter at Kingdom of Heaven must to be like a child, that boy later on turned to be St. Ignatius of Antioch.
      And the two sons of Simon of Cyrene, are mentioned by St. Paul as Rufus one of them.

No law, no sin, no transgression judgement ... mic drop 😮😮😮😮😮. We are saved by Christ’s faith and god’s works which is our fruits of salvation.
