“Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” were Catholic because we are sick and need a Dr.
El Greco's paintings of Christ are extraordinary. I find them more approachable and personal than much Italian renaissance work, and I'm Venetian! Thanks for posting.

To understand Predestination from a Catholic perspective one must read Fr Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange’s book entitled Predestination available from TAN books. I am uncertain if this sermon accurately reflects the contents of this excellent work.
That one book and along with it the one on Grace if I could add, in my understanding of the matter of those topics which they support mutually and integrally. Good observation, let us keep praying and asking for the gift of understanding, May God bless you

This is the ”contradiction”/hard saying that’s very hard for us emotional creatures to accept. But we must accept it since it is true. The reason is that eventhough it is true no one can initiate the process of salvation with their free will without grace, grace is not owed to anyone so the basis on which God sends people to hell are not that God didn’t chose them, but their real sin which he left them in . Why God chooses this or that person belongs to His Will alone, and should not be sought after unless you want to err.
Predestination is not predeterminism. Predestination just means that God has infallibly chosen some for salvation and will give the neccessary graces for the chosen ones to follow God with their free will and die in a state of grace. Free will just means we can choose among options, our choices are not predetermined/forced. Both free will and predestination are true. However free will has never been strong enough to initiate the process of salvation so why God doesnt call everybody and lifts them up from the blindness of original sin, is due to His choice of Will alone, since no one is owed grace. That’s why people who are born into christianity have a huge gift, especially catholics that should not be squandered.
@@MuttonBiryani1994 ok. But if God has already decided they are going to hell that doesnt give very much incentive to try to get to Him. I never really understood this part of things. The whole concept seems to be an oxymoron, or opposites together. I know I am probably missing something in there but my mind wont wrap around it. I am trying but I still dont get it. But thank you for taking the time to explain. I guess that part is above my pay grade lol.
@@esmysyield2023 People cannot know if they will ultimately end up in hell or heaven, that’s why the incentive is still there. God bless. Oh yes theologians have debated this for centuries.
@@MuttonBiryani1994 well thats encouraging to know people smarter than me are still trying to figure it out too. That makes me feel better, honestly it does. I dont feel so foolish now. Thank you so much. 🙂
If any one saith, that the grace of Justification is only attained to by those who are predestined unto life; but that all others who are called, are called indeed, but receive not grace, as being, by the divine power, predestined unto evil; let him be anathema (CANON XVII).

Too many terms are being thrown around. I get what he meant about Luther and Calvin and he's not wrong. Their reformation was every bit a political reformation as a religious. Reprobate? Idk
@@redknightsr69 The Predestination in Catholic theology is that God only Predestines the Elect to Heaven. Because God doesn't predestinate anyone to Hell even before they're born.

That’s protestant theology not Catholic
“Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” were Catholic because we are sick and need a Dr.
The interesting part about that line is other than the saints it applies to everyone on earth.
El Greco's paintings of Christ are extraordinary. I find them more approachable and personal than much Italian renaissance work, and I'm Venetian! Thanks for posting.
El Greco was on drugs and his paintings are objectively seen as horrendous because of their inferior quality in comparison to Italian works of art.

Omg I've been longing for this father sermon forever. It's like he's only do 1 sermon every year lol 😆 😂 😅 🤣 🙃 😄 😆 😂
Have confidence. we are Catholics, we are baptized and we have God's mercy 🙏🏻
I don't understand how anyone can be held accountable if they are predestined?

@@MuttonBiryani1994 I still don't understand
@@KMF3 Pray for knowledge and study.
@@KMF3 God LOVES the Reprobate, but it is the Reprobate who *OBSTINATELY* chose their Sin rather than God.
@@Darth_Vader258 true but it still doesn't explain predestination
God wouldn't give us a desire of heaven if he didn't plan to fulfill it
I dont understand how predestined and freewill can come together and both be true. Can someone explain please.
Predestination is not predeterminism. Predestination just means that God has infallibly chosen some for salvation and will give the neccessary graces for the chosen ones to follow God with their free will and die in a state of grace.

The Reprobates are NOT the ones Rejected by God. But those the Reprobates have REJECTED God.
Reprobatus is a passive verb. It means “rejected”, not one who rejects.
That’s the most beautiful painting as the thumbnail . Anyone know the name and artist ?
I always saw predestination as simply God’s foreknowledge of our choice that He gives us.
He doesn’t damn anybody without giving them a choice ?
Well, you know now what you must do.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amazing!! This was an incredible blessing to hear.
Can someone Please tell me what Priest was speaking? He was wonderful! 🙏🕯️
I truly love this holy priest. Anybody know who he is and what Diocese? Thank you - God Bless!!! 😊🙏

What does the Tao Cross look like and did I spell it correctly? Thank you, Father (I promise to pray 3 Hail Marys for the priest). Amen. 🙏☧❤👑🕯⚘🎄
Tau cross. It looks like an upper case T.
13:35 hahaha 😂🍻 i love you Father
Wish I knew this priest’s name. Been asking for years.
double predestination is heresy
I don't understand the Tao cross
tau
Tau. It's the Greek name for the letter T.
It is a sign of conversion. The Franciscans wear it.
I'm still confused
Me too

Same as Islam: their god created some for damnation and evils are predetermined, in the full teachings of Islam.
