Many love to make fun of the Catholic church, and say our masses are dry and dull. Right away, I could tell from the organ an d notes that I am listening to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. If the world only knew what a treasure we have in the Eucharist.
The liturgy is still beautiful, but the very fact that we have abandoned are beautiful churches and ornamentations of the last 2,000 years in favor of building these dull and sterile looking monstrosities in their place and call them Churches speaks volumes about what’s been done to our faith. Most Catholics no longer even really know their own faith anymore and they have no idea what really separates them from their Protestant neighbors.
So beautiful. What a wonderful thing that all over the world the church is giving witness to our faith through the devotion of its clergy and people. The music is truly beautiful. Thank you. Blessings from the UK to our beloved brothers and sisters in Japan.
When you are troubled and need comfort, walk into a church like this and immediately feel the presence of something greater than anything, embracing you! It's chilling comfort! When my mom was on her last days from cancer, I could see the discomfort from pain, not even morphine can stop! It was just a matter of hours, days, but suffering! All we could do was wait. One lunch break, I walked into St. Margaret's and lit a candle, just stood there staring up at Jesus on the cross. I said: Jesus, you come first in her daily life, hours of praying, never missed. If you're not sparing her life, then please take her now, because she's suffering. Shortly, at 10 pm I get a call from my brother in another state, "mom passed". I thanked Jesus for hearing me and now mom's safe with Him. ❤💙

There are indeed lots of examples of the Novus Ordo, which are solemn. A major part depends on the music and the use of the pipe organ. The conservative enjoys portraying the Novus Ordo as a failure, to justify the Tridentine Mass as the one and only authentic tradition. What is not said is that the Mass became a spectacle to be watched during the baroque period, from where the Liturgical Renewal at the end of the 19th century originated, returning to the liturgies of the Early Church, spearheaded by liturgists like J.Jungmann . Finally, there is a relation between worship and belief, between the theology of the church and the way the liturgy is celebrated. The Tridentine Mass reflects the clerical church, the Novus Ordo reflects a theology which describes the church as the People of God.
Anyway, the true is that Novus Ordo is full of old people, but Tridentine Mass is full of young families with many children and the youth are more interested in the teaching of the faith.

I am a catholic, but not a Japanese, but when oneday I attend a mass in this grand church I have no worry although I do not speak Japanese, because I know what is going on, at the moment, Catholic ritual is the same all over the world.

What a vile building, the clericalism is evident for all to see. Our risen Lord is off in some concrete cupboard, the bishops chair - looks throne like is right up there.
The design of this church is as sickening and offensive as Our Lady of the Angeles Cathedral in Los Angeles. These Vatican 2 priests lost their minds, as did their bishops.
@@Jimmy73562 yet we are also bound to show respect and glory to God also in other forms, not just with the faith, also with actions, words etc. It would be like the Pharisees, as they only cared for the laws, the actions, they were empty in the faith, that doesn't mean that we can be empty in the law and in the actions as faith leads to works. Both faith and works are important, faith without works is blind, easy to do; work without faith is empty. But I do agree with the principle of the faithfuls that are the Church and not the building.

I love to see the japanese tradition in this Catholic Mass at the Tokyo Cathedral
Wow
Wonderful
This is very beautiful. How wonderful to see the Holy Mass celebrated with such love, reverence and holiness.
Beautiful music, beautiful architecture.

Lovely Mass; hideous building.
Great solemnity and devotion! Well done!
building is terrifying
Very nice indeed - thanks!
🙏🏼🇦🇱🇯🇵🎌🇦🇱❤️❤️🙏🏼much Love
Jesus. Bless you all .
Wow a church (the building) is huge, so that one day the church (the people) will grow really big.
Wonderful to see my Japanese brothers and sisters in Christ.
I thank the UA-cam algo for being so sensitive. I miss being able to attend Mass in person because of this pandemic.
God 🙏 Bless 🗾 JAPAN 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🔯🕎✝️
The star of david is evil. Jesus warned against it. But God bless you.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ 🙏 and mother Mary. Blessed are people keeping faith alive.
Blessed 🙏 is the holy Catholic church

But that's the problem. The new mass reflects a new postmodernist theology, with origins in protestantism and inspired by archaeologism.
Nobody wants the novus ordos
Anyway, the true is that Novus Ordo is full of old people, but Tridentine Mass is full of young families with many children and the youth are more interested in the teaching of the faith.
God bless 🙏 keep it up
What are they meeting in? An abandoned concrete subway?
That really doesnt matter
Thats the Architecture Design of the Tokyo Cathedral where this mass was held itself
Ignorance is bliss is it not?
The mass is the most beautiful! Non christian's, non believers of all walks, Jews attend the Christmas high mass for the blessings!
I love its simple, unadorned, brutalist architecture. It soars to heaven with pure lines!
I love it too. Modern architecture done well is just wonderful - check out St. Basil in Los Angeles. My favorite!
As beautiful as a stripped down cave. Not worthy of bats or guano, let alone the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Holy hideousness!!!
Are you kidding? This church is so ugly. We went through the 7th Ecumenical Council and Protestant image-smashers for THIS?

I used to be an altar server, back then im a lector now not sure how i will serve God in the future
Are they in the basement of the church?
GOD BLESS JAPANESE TO GROW_MORE FAITH THANK YOU

Beautiful mass celebrated in a beautiful cathedral
Location plzzzzzzzzz church
E disse Jesus a seus discípulos: ide a todas as nações e pregai o meu evangelho.
The Church is pretty in a modern sort of way...I guess. I'm not sure it's worse than the "fan" shape so favoured in America.
Yeah at least it is cruciform as opposed to in the round. Still, wow that is very brutalist....
How is this a high mass?
because the whole liturgy is either sung or chanted
It looks like a large alien space ship, not a church.
That design has a purpose, look it from above. Nevertheless, it's unorthodox.
It looks like a unfinished builduing
whoever designed this church had to be on drugs.
Looks like an alien spaceship to me.
John Palomo the organ is pretty impressive, though.
John Palomo, for me, as Protestant, I see the church is so beautiful ...
The church is designed by Kenzō Tange, a renowned Japanese architect and winner of the 1987 Pritzker Prize (Nobel Prize of architecture)
Look the cathedral from above... It's impressive
Reverent ceremony but the building is a soulless monstrosity.
Several churches in Portland Oregon look like this. Fortunately not mine
I'm happy to live in Spain, with beautiful churches.
The beauty of this church!
Bad Taste
IMHO the church looks hideous. Looks like a big dam behind them. Definitely not my taste, nothing beautiful about it.
Looks like this “mass” took place in the Star Wars Death Star
カルデドラ
😍✝️🇯🇵
The only problem I have in listening to the Music, is that the Oregan is overpowering the singing...cannot hear the words of the songs.

Vatican II in steroids.
The worst cathedral I have ever seen, this is a blaspheme
Why?
well it is not blaspheme, it is just ugly

Glory to God for spreading his truth to Japan... but the people of Japan deserve some better churches... not this utterly disgusting cinderblock.
This is not a High Mass. A High Mass is not possible in the Novus Ordo Missae.
俺はプロテスタントだが。日本のカトリックの仏教徒のようにお経を唱えるところが嫌い。理解不能
確かに海外でも特に東方教会ではお経っぽさのようなものは感じられなくもないが、ここまでではない。
こういうとこが日本人の無知で嫌なとこなんだよ。いやだねほんと
Don't stand between these people and how they worship God. You'll only be in the way
Shut up, son of luther
There's some grade A heresy right there. The Novus Ordo is not Catholic.
Fortunately, no one cares about schismatics opnions. Besides others schismatics, of course.
This so-called “church” is awful. It speaks volumes about what Vatican II has done to the faith.
