As a sixty eight year old sinner who has been celibate for about 15 years, I must say that the last 15 years have been the best for my psyche and growth in God.
Well, the reality is that you started at 53. That's past sexual prime and easier. Although I am starting to have past 50 health-related issues, I don't think I ever want my youth back if I had to relive the difficulties rising from overwhelming sexual urges.

@CroationGambler, keep on truckin', and keep getting back on the train if you fall off. Keep fighting. It will get better. I haven't fought this particular battle, but so many of the men I love have.
They with ears to hear, let them hear: Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit! Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry. Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples! These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father! There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you! They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God... Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask: "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen." Revelation 22:8-9 KJV 8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. 9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God. Acts 2:38 KJV 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

as a cradle catholic, i’m glad i abstained until marriage. met a wonderful girl who converted before we married, and she also remained chaste until after our wedding. we were each others’ firsts, and have been keeping faithful. no regrets whatsoever!

@@kermierogers7876 why not? i'm a 40-something never-married man who's also a virgin and completely porn-free as well. i have strong sexual urges just like any other heterosexual man but i am able to control my impulses because i have discipline. why don't we stop pushing the falsehood that people cannot control themselves?
As someone who has been struggling with my identity due to decades of bullying and obesity, I am so glad that the Catechism and channels like Pints with Aquinas exists, because too many Priests and even the Pope himself confuse the faithful with their statements. I wish more Priests and Bishops would be as clear as Bishop Strickland.
I've been hearing a lot of good things about the Courage program. It's Catholic, but many bishops pretend that it doesn't exist. Same sex attracted people can support each other in friendship as they pursue a chaste life.
Do you support the transgender movement and transgenders. Do you agree that transgenders should be allowed into classrooms to tell elementary school children about their perverted lifestyle and to counsel elementary school children *WHO MAY BE CONFUSED* about whether they are a girl or a boy?
@@dunexapa1016 I don't know what this individual's answer to your question would be, but there are many homosexual and gender confused people who believe that grooming children is wrong, and who are speaking out against it. We all struggle with sin in some form, and the struggle is real, but bringing kids into it is straight from the pits of Hell.
@@greyhoundmama2062 When you say 'gender confused people' you are talking about a group of people that are having a delusional experience. They are uncertain if they are male or female or think *IN THEIR MIND* they are male and try to make their female body conform to this *MENTAL IMAGE* and vice versa for the person that thinks *IN THEIR MIND* they are female and also try to make their physical male body conform to this *MENTAL IMAGE* . These person's entire mental energy and life energy seems to be consumed with this body alteration and that is just about the sum total of what they consider to be their worth. A rather pathetic state of affairs.
The Catholic church protects sexual perverts that prey on innocent children. This goes completely opposite the teachings of Jesus Christ. I believe the Catholic church is not a Christian Church, but only 'Catholic' church. People that follow the teachings of Jesus Christ should not attend such a church. It is more for perverts who want access to innocent children.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this wonderful shepherd! I pray for Bishop Strickland every day because I am sure he faces tremendous challenges in his ministry because he stands firm on Church teaching.
Few in the pulpit, pastor or priest, would ever use the word “disordered” and that’s exactly what sexuality is apart from Gods design and prescription is for sex. We’ve broken away from Christian/biblical ideas about sex, gender, marriage and family. Here we are in 2023 unhappy as ever, we lost as ever, but we sure have a our pride. 🏳🌈
@@TheSaintFrenzy I think you are spot on with your comment. It's too bad that the word "disordered" carries such negative weight in our culture today. It is very easy to explain that disordered describes an action which is not order toward God, our highest good (whether or not one recognizes Him as such), so it is therefore DISORDERED. If people take exception to that, there is nothing more that can be done. I use this language in my homilies often. I get emails from the usual suspects, but the message is thought-provoking for the majority.
Bishop's and Priest's like Bishop Strickland are wonderful examples of what a priest or Bishop should be and how they shepherd the flock in the Church today. Clear teaching that speaks to the heart of the problem and yet we are taught like a loving Father who wants the absolute best future and outcome for us as their "kids".

He is controversial and anyone who goes against the papacy needs to be removed or disciplined. I hope the Vatican does something about him and Taylor Marshall.
I was married, and now I am alone as far as the world is concerned. I took a vow of chastity years ago and this path has been a beautiful journey toward my heavenly Spouse, Jesus Christ, the true Beloved, and the one with Whom I will spend eternity. Thank you for telling the fearless truth. Sex outside of God's plan for us leads to suffering, for all concerned.
I wish more priest and bishops had the courage to say this. I also hope both Lay Women and Men will open their minds, hearts and brains to hear his words.
But he places the GOP and Trump above the Church. He only supports the teachings that can be considered conservative, or do you think it's a coincidence that he cast numerous mothers into a fiery pit because he doesn't like their party affiliation? He does not love any Democrats. He's full of blind hatred. Don't believe me? Tell him you voted for Biden in 2020 because you saw Trump admit to a room full of evangelical Protestants that he's never asked God for forgiveness.
Thank you very much bishop i am a African christian , i am so amazed of your teaching, your ability to spray the truth of Christ given the modern contemporary context of America and Europe, may God keeps you and bless you ,
After having way too much sex (outside of marriage) and battling huge lust demons since I was 14 years old, I have been celibate (still single) for almost ten years. It's not really hard once you turn away from the world and turn to Jesus.
Both the Bishop and Matt make excellent points: 1. The term “disordered” applies to all kinds of sexual sin. 2. It refers to a teleological disorder, but most people falsely understand it as meaning a psychological disorder. Very important distinctions.
Absolutely. Bishop Strickland is less persuasive because he doesn't tackle this basic point first. As a result, too much of this sounds like assertion without reasoning. A diisappointment.

These days are hard for the faithful. I do think Christ had compassion. Reaching out to the sinners. Not judging them. But yet not condoning their sin. The church can do this. More than today. Amen
Thank you Matt, for this wonderful interview with Bishop Strickland. I have started recently to read the Catholic Catechism, and now I'm even more motivated! 💘God bless you, your beautiful wife, and four children! 💘God bless Bishop Strickland! 💘Praying for you! 💘Praying for Bishop Strickland! 💘Saint Joseph, we love you, please pray for us!
Charity demands clarity. The Bishop is spot on about the widespread disorder in human sexuality, the Church must teach the truth clearly, whatever groups feel it unfair.
And yet, Bishop Strickland is uncharitable towards Democrats as a whole. How many mothers did he claim are going to hell? How many mothers did he cast into a fiery pit simply because they don't vote Republican? And whether you like it or not, the Democrats and Republicans are both corrupt. Trump didn't change that. He exacerbated the problem.
Amen to that, thank you God for giving us Bishop Strickland who is not afraid to speak the truth it is so needed especially in these difficult times we live in when a lot of people seems like they've lost their minds even worse sold their souls to the...
@@Sarah-zg5qs Amen. But we still need more people like Bishop Strickland who follow Christs way and not the World’s. There was a saint whom I forget her name, but she was a nun who was tested with certain sins such as anger towards another in her convent or jealousy, whenever tested with that sin, she always increased her behaviour in the opposing grace. Such as If she felt angry towards another nun, she would try to be extra nice to her instead. That is something I try to emulate. Even though it is cot directly stated, ( or maybe is)it is implied by Christ and his disciples in written documents and stories and are good role models in following Christ. People throughout history have done things through kindness and bravery and so forth and have gone through circumstances similar to us in our lives, but have done something extraordinary to follow Christ and we should emulate that. Such is the story of the Saints. All of which was inspired by Christ.
Thank you Bishop Strickland for being courageous while others remain quiet you are not afraid to speak the truth about the beauty of our Church and its teachings! I am an 85 yr old woman. I love my CHURCH, I love the teachings of the Church! I have studied the Catechism it’s such a treasure! We Catholics need the Bible in one hand and the catechism in the other!
Always praying for our bishops, priests, and religious. Siempre orando. They devil will seek to attack them even more so that the sheep will be scandalized and scattered. 🙏 Viva nuestro Santísimo Dios!
Bishop Strickland is the BEST American bishop. Period. The clearest and most steadfast in teaching according to the Catechism and Magersterium, and the most courageous. There are way too many weak-sister bishops afraid of secular criticism, I thank God for Bishop Strickland.
an exemplary Bishop,may Almighty God protect him against the insidious evils of this modern World around us.Pray for the conversion of sinners, lapsed catholics,and those who are twisting and destroying the teachings of Our Lord . May God have mercy and touch their hardened hearts.
I love love love this Bishop , he is always speaking the truth. He is a gift for this generation for all Catholics all around the world. I always pray for this Bishop to protect him and give him good health. I want him to live long to teach the Catichism / the teaching of the Christ .
I have you in my prayers and daily mass, most Rev. Bishop Strickland. I prayed for you especially today during rosary and mass. Thank you for standing up for righteousness. May God be with us in this battle.
The evil one knew exactly what he was doing when he said, "did God REALLY say...?" Up to the very day, so many people continue rationalizing, "Oh, he couldn't POSSIBLY..."
Today, we find ourselves here after a span of 10 months, witnessing the removal of this individual from his bishopric by the Pope. The Catholic Church seems to be facing escalating issues and a decline in health.
What happened? Why did they remove this good Shephard? I have been seen posts from x about him and listening to him now gives me goosebumps. This is the kind of message and gospel that the world needs now. God help your church.
from Blessed Mother's message to Pedro Regis on 11/7/2023: "Dear children, you are heading towards a future of great spiritual confusion. Those who love and defend the truth will be persecuted and thrown out. The enemies will unite and revenge will come from the throne. I suffer because of what is coming for the righteous. Do not be discouraged. My Jesus is with you. Fearlessly proclaim the Gospel of my Jesus and the teachings of the TRUE MAGISTERIUM OF HIS CHURCH. The quagmire of false doctrines will spread, but the truth will win. God’s Victory will come for His Church. Do not retreat! The silence of the righteous strengthens the enemies of God. Go forward along the path that I have shown you! Do not depart from prayer and the Eucharist. This is the message that I give you today in the name of the Most Holy Trinity."
I know it will be hard to swallow,but this man,is telling us what was preached to me,as a young Catholic boy,I am 75,born in 1948,This is the true teaching of the Catholic faith!There is to much liberalism in the church,and way to much in society!We all need more discipline,in our faith and in our life’s!
One minister said we go to HELL one step at a time. Disordered thinking leads to disordered actions and rationalization . As one person told me "God wants me to be Happy" my response " No He wants me to be Holy.and then I will be happy."
"For most of the planet across the world it would be disordered..." As a woman who has been married to one man for nearly 22 years and in all that time have never been unfaithful, I can say YES, my sexual expression in my life has been DISORDERED, even during this long time of monogamy! I'm not off the hook just because I'm married and straight. It is not always disordered, and it is not ONLY disordered, but nonetheless, even we who are in heterosexual unions for life are going to catch ourselves sinning sexually. Even women like me, in their 40s, who go to church and confession and pray constantly! Even nuns, monks, priests, SAINTS. It is increasingly difficult to avoid disordered sexual behavior in the world today, but I truly believe very very few people ever born throughout the history of humanity have avoided sexual sin. In the same way, nearly no one has avoided pride, greed, envy or sloth, neither have we been able to escape lust. The important thing is that when we fall down, we get up and turn from the sin, and when we fall again, we get up again, and again and again. Our sexual obsession in the modern age makes this seem like an insurmountable obstacle, but it is no more or less dangerous to our souls than the other sins, it just happens to have the spotlight on it in our age. Pray to the Theotokos for help in doing God's will. Pray to Saint Mary of Egypt for her intercessions on behalf of your debaucherous sin. God bless!
On the Commandment, 'You Shall Not Fornicate (Deut 5:18),' and Sexual Satisfaction, Our Lord says (excerpts from Maria Valtorta's Poem of Man-God, Vol. 1, pp.665-667): "Do not fornicate! Oh, tell Me, especially you men. Which of you has not tasted this bread made with ashes and excrement, which is Sexual Satisfaction? And is lust only what carries you for one hour between the arms of a prostitute? Is lust not also the desecrated union with your wife; desecrated because it is a ratified vice as it is reciprocal sensual satisfaction, which, however, evades its consequences?
Marriage means procreation and its act MEANS and MUST be fecundation. Otherwise it is immoral. You MUST not make a brothel of your nuptial beds, and that is what they become if they are soiled by lust and are not consecrated by maternity. The earth does not reject the seed. It receives it and makes a plant of it. The seed does not escape from the furrow after being laid there. But it takes root at once and it strives to grow and bear fruit, that is the vegetable creature born of the union between soil and seed. Man is the seed, woman is the soil, and the fruit is the son. It is sinful to refuse to bear fruit and scatter strength in vain. It is PROSTITUTION performed on the nuptial bed, and, in no way differs from the other prostitution. On the contrary, it is aggravated by disobedience to the command that says; "Be one flesh and multiply by bearing children (Gen 1:28, 2:24)."
Therefore, women, deliberately barren, legal and honest wives in the eyes of the world, but not in the eyes of God; you can see that you may be considered prostitutes, and you fornicate just the same, even if only with your husbands, because you do not seek maternity, but, too often, you are only after the pleasure. Do you not consider that Pleasure is a Poison that contaminates every mouth that tastes it? It burns with fire that seems to satisfy, instead it falls out of the fireplace and devours, more and more insatiable, leaving a sour taste of ash on the tongue as well as disgust, nausea and contempt of both oneself and the partner in pleasure, because when a conscience revives, and it does revive between two hearts, one can but feel such contempt of oneself, being lowered below the level of beasts.
A great deal of the carnal actions of men are fornications. And I do not take into consideration the inconceivable obsessive union which Leviticus condemns; "Man, you must not lie with a man as with a woman, and you must not lie with any animal (Lev 18:22-23)." But after mentioning the Duty of Husband and Wife in Marriage, which is no longer holy when it becomes barren through malice, I am going to speak of the true and proper fornication between man and woman performed out of reciprocal vice or for compensation in money or gifts. The human body is a magnificent temple that contains an altar. God should be on the altar. But God is not where there is corruption. Therefore impure body has a desecrated altar without God. Like a drunken person, who wallows in ire and in the regurgitations of his own drunkenness, man lowers himself in the brutality of fornication and becomes worse than the most impure worm and beast.
Tell Me, if among you, there is anyone who has perverted himself, which benefit did you gain? Take your hearts in your hands, examine them, question them, listen to them, note their wounds, their pangs, and then tell Me: was the fruit so sweet as to deserve such pain to a heart that was born pure and that you have compelled to live in impure body, and to beat to give life, and heat to lust, and to be worn out by vice? Tell Me: are you so perverted that you do not sob secretly, hearing the voice of a child calling, 'mummy', or thinking of your mothers, you, woman of pleasure, who have run away from home or have been driven out of them, so that the rotten fruit may not contaminate with its oozing rottenness the other good ones? Thinking of your mothers, who probably died broken-hearted, having to say, 'I gave birth to disgrace'? But above all, are you not terrified of the Just Judge, Who created you and is waiting for you to ask you, 'what have you done of yourself?' Did I, perhaps, give you life for that? How dare you come to My Presence, you, nest swarming with worms and putrefaction? You have had everything of what was your god: Pleasure. Go to the place of eternal malediction!"
This needs to be reposted..... timely with clarity and truth. Let's all find the time to do a Rosary for Bishop Strickland and for the Church to be cleansed of evil. God Bless All.

This is what I was taught in RCIA back in 1991. Thanks be to God. I have seven children now instead of the 3 I thought we were going to have, Thanks be to God!!! Being Catholic is THE Best gift God has given to me!!! Thanks be to God.
What a great interview, you’ve packed into just a few minutes that which has plagued my life forever. Thank you for answering in truth. It’s sad that Protestant’s do not realize the catechism is from a time that goes back to the very first church.

I've started to read a Catholic Catechism, but it's not easy to read, like a book is... I don't know anything about this Priest... Thank you for sharing.💘🙏💘
@@zionlion4445 Father Mike Schmitz also did the Bible in a Year a couple of years ago. It was the #1 podcast for quite some time. He is a wonderful priest in my home state of Minnesota and I got to attend a Mass of his at the U of M Duluth where he is assigned at the Newman Center.

Bishop Strickland is a rock solid pastor. As an unmarried Christian man, I must say no to sexual sin for the good of my soul. How is that any different from someone who struggles with SSA? It is difficult sometimes but holiness always is, which is why we treasure it.
As a sixty eight year old sinner who has been celibate for about 15 years, I must say that the last 15 years have been the best for my psyche and growth in God.
Well, the reality is that you started at 53. That's past sexual prime and easier. Although I am starting to have past 50 health-related issues, I don't think I ever want my youth back if I had to relive the difficulties rising from overwhelming sexual urges.

They with ears to hear, let them hear:

Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry.
Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples!
These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!

Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:

Wow, that’s not common. Praise God
Awesome to hear. May God continue to bless you.
What planet are you both from? Just kidding. I don't know how you managed that.
@@kermierogers7876 why not? i'm a 40-something never-married man who's also a virgin and completely porn-free as well. i have strong sexual urges just like any other heterosexual man but i am able to control my impulses because i have discipline. why don't we stop pushing the falsehood that people cannot control themselves?
As someone who has been struggling with my identity due to decades of bullying and obesity, I am so glad that the Catechism and channels like Pints with Aquinas exists, because too many Priests and even the Pope himself confuse the faithful with their statements. I wish more Priests and Bishops would be as clear as Bishop Strickland.
I've been hearing a lot of good things about the Courage program. It's Catholic, but many bishops pretend that it doesn't exist. Same sex attracted people can support each other in friendship as they pursue a chaste life.
God bless you and keep you, sister.
May the healing continue. The Lord will raise you up on eagles’ wings.
Do you support the transgender movement and transgenders. Do you agree that transgenders should be allowed into classrooms to tell elementary school children about their perverted lifestyle and to counsel elementary school children *WHO MAY BE CONFUSED* about whether they are a girl or a boy?
@@dunexapa1016 I don't know what this individual's answer to your question would be, but there are many homosexual and gender confused people who believe that grooming children is wrong, and who are speaking out against it. We all struggle with sin in some form, and the struggle is real, but bringing kids into it is straight from the pits of Hell.
@@greyhoundmama2062 When you say 'gender confused people' you are talking about a group of people that are having a delusional experience. They are uncertain if they are male or female or think *IN THEIR MIND* they are male and try to make their female body conform to this *MENTAL IMAGE* and vice versa for the person that thinks *IN THEIR MIND* they are female and also try to make their physical male body conform to this *MENTAL IMAGE* . These person's entire mental energy and life energy seems to be consumed with this body alteration and that is just about the sum total of what they consider to be their worth. A rather pathetic state of affairs.
Bishop Strickland for Pope, a true son of the church👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🙏
Bishop Strickland is a GOOD Shepherd. We need more like him.
The Catholic church protects sexual perverts that prey on innocent children. This goes completely opposite the teachings of Jesus Christ. I believe the Catholic church is not a Christian Church, but only 'Catholic' church. People that follow the teachings of Jesus Christ should not attend such a church. It is more for perverts who want access to innocent children.
Aye, 100%
A good sheep. Your welcome
the pope is trying to get him to resign
Well said
Happy to hear that the very word 'disorder' applies to a wide range of sexual misconducts. Not only gay ones.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this wonderful shepherd! I pray for Bishop Strickland every day because I am sure he faces tremendous challenges in his ministry because he stands firm on Church teaching.
Few in the pulpit, pastor or priest, would ever use the word “disordered” and that’s exactly what sexuality is apart from Gods design and prescription is for sex. We’ve broken away from Christian/biblical ideas about sex, gender, marriage and family. Here we are in 2023 unhappy as ever, we lost as ever, but we sure have a our pride. 🏳🌈
@@TheSaintFrenzy I think you are spot on with your comment. It's too bad that the word "disordered" carries such negative weight in our culture today. It is very easy to explain that disordered describes an action which is not order toward God, our highest good (whether or not one recognizes Him as such), so it is therefore DISORDERED. If people take exception to that, there is nothing more that can be done. I use this language in my homilies often. I get emails from the usual suspects, but the message is thought-provoking for the majority.
Thank you Bishop Strickland for speaking out loud and clear to some of us quite ignorant of our own Catechism. We love you and pray for you.
We love that you are now unemployed.
Bishop's and Priest's like Bishop Strickland are wonderful examples of what a priest or Bishop should be and how they shepherd the flock in the Church today. Clear teaching that speaks to the heart of the problem and yet we are taught like a loving Father who wants the absolute best future and outcome for us as their "kids".

He is controversial and anyone who goes against the papacy needs to be removed or disciplined. I hope the Vatican does something about him and Taylor Marshall.
@@Truthseekingcatholic you got your wish!!!
I was married, and now I am alone as far as the world is concerned. I took a vow of chastity years ago and this path has been a beautiful journey toward my heavenly Spouse, Jesus Christ, the true Beloved, and the one with Whom I will spend eternity. Thank you for telling the fearless truth. Sex outside of God's plan for us leads to suffering, for all concerned.

Agreed! Keep going friend!
I wish more priest and bishops had the courage to say this. I also hope both Lay Women and Men will open their minds, hearts and brains to hear his words.
God bless Bishop Strickland for having the courage to speak out and support the Church’s teaching.
But he places the GOP and Trump above the Church. He only supports the teachings that can be considered conservative, or do you think it's a coincidence that he cast numerous mothers into a fiery pit because he doesn't like their party affiliation? He does not love any Democrats. He's full of blind hatred. Don't believe me? Tell him you voted for Biden in 2020 because you saw Trump admit to a room full of evangelical Protestants that he's never asked God for forgiveness.
Thank you very much bishop i am a African christian , i am so amazed of your teaching, your ability to spray the truth of Christ given the modern contemporary context of America and Europe, may God keeps you and bless you ,
One of the coolest bishops out there
💘🙏💘
After having way too much sex (outside of marriage) and battling huge lust demons since I was 14 years old, I have been celibate (still single) for almost ten years. It's not really hard once you turn away from the world and turn to Jesus.
Amen! Bishop Strickland has my deepest respect. Prayers for him and all bishops that speak with such clarity.
A truly holy man who’s not afraid to speak the truth and who like the good shepherd guides his flock.
God bless and keep Bishop Strickland in His sight allways. Our Lady and St. Joseph, pray for him! ! !
What a good bishop. I wish more had his courage. Great video.
Thank you bishop Strickland God bless you and your ministry and thank you for your calling your yes 🙏☀️
Both the Bishop and Matt make excellent points: 1. The term “disordered” applies to all kinds of sexual sin. 2. It refers to a teleological disorder, but most people falsely understand it as meaning a psychological disorder. Very important distinctions.
Absolutely. Bishop Strickland is less persuasive because he doesn't tackle this basic point first. As a result, too much of this sounds like assertion without reasoning. A diisappointment.
Disordered doesn’t just apply to sexual sin, it also applies to greed, self indulgence ( shopping, eating) despair etc.
@@basil5641 good point!
Does it apply to adultery, like with Trump?
Love Bishop Strickland.

Be it known: Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry.
Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples!
These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
"Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
Revelation 22:8-9 KJV
8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
Acts 2:38 KJV
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Luke 11:13 KJV
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
John 14:21-24 KJV
21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*
3 John 1:11 KJV
11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. *He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.*
1 John 3:6-10 KJV
6 *Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.*
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: *he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.*
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 *Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.*
10 *In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,* neither he that loveth not his brother.
Being chaste as an older senior comes with devotion and total surrender to Jesus and Mary on your spiritual journey! Grace upon grace is given to you by God! Amen.❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you Vito, please continue to pray for bishop Strickland, he is suffering.
Thanks to Bishop Strickland. May God bless and protect him always.
This was very interesting, this is the first time I've heard a Priest or Bishop actually talk about the difficulties for remaining celibate.
I believe Father Chris Alar has, and also Bishop Robert Barron.
This is why we must pray for all the Priests and all the Bishops! 💘🙏💘

Matt you need to get Bishop Strickland back on the show. He needs a platform.
Absolutely
These days are hard for the faithful. I do think Christ had compassion. Reaching out to the sinners. Not judging them. But yet not condoning their sin. The church can do this. More than today. Amen
He needs an income source.

Charity demands clarity. The Bishop is spot on about the widespread disorder in human sexuality, the Church must teach the truth clearly, whatever groups feel it unfair.
And yet, Bishop Strickland is uncharitable towards Democrats as a whole. How many mothers did he claim are going to hell? How many mothers did he cast into a fiery pit simply because they don't vote Republican? And whether you like it or not, the Democrats and Republicans are both corrupt. Trump didn't change that. He exacerbated the problem.
Amen to that, thank you God for giving us Bishop Strickland who is not afraid to speak the truth it is so needed especially in these difficult times we live in when a lot of people seems like they've lost their minds even worse sold their souls to the...
Catechism needs NO change at all. Love this Bishop, we need more like him to lead us
We need more Bishop Stricklands
💘🙏💘
You need The Almighty and Christ much more than you need more Stricklands
AMEN!!!!
Amen. We really do.
@@Sarah-zg5qs Amen. But we still need more people like Bishop Strickland who follow Christs way and not the World’s. There was a saint whom I forget her name, but she was a nun who was tested with certain sins such as anger towards another in her convent or jealousy, whenever tested with that sin, she always increased her behaviour in the opposing grace. Such as If she felt angry towards another nun, she would try to be extra nice to her instead. That is something I try to emulate. Even though it is cot directly stated, ( or maybe is)it is implied by Christ and his disciples in written documents and stories and are good role models in following Christ. People throughout history have done things through kindness and bravery and so forth and have gone through circumstances similar to us in our lives, but have done something extraordinary to follow Christ and we should emulate that. Such is the story of the Saints. All of which was inspired by Christ.
Praying for Bishop Strickland who is now being "visited" by the Vatican...
Thank you Bishop Strickland for being courageous while others remain quiet you are not afraid to speak the truth about the beauty of our Church and its teachings! I am an 85 yr old woman. I love my CHURCH, I love the teachings of the Church! I have studied the Catechism it’s such a treasure! We Catholics need the Bible in one hand and the catechism in the other!

This is very clear teaching. We need more shepperds like this. God bless you, Bishop Strickland!
Bishop Strickland makes no compromises. He has so much Wisdom. Sticking to the truth is what is important.
I’ve known about Bishop Strickland for about a year. This is the first time I have actually heard him.
I am amazed. ❤
Radio station EWTN has the Bishop Strickland hour at 7am ET
Yes, me too, amazed at his backward thinking and narrow mindedness. Oh wait, he's from Texas, sounds about right.
Bishop Strickland is the BEST American bishop. Period. The clearest and most steadfast in teaching according to the Catechism and Magersterium, and the most courageous. There are way too many weak-sister bishops afraid of secular criticism, I thank God for Bishop Strickland.
Thank God for Bishop Strickland!💘

#Truth God bless you, Bp. Strickland.
God bless all the clergy, that they remain faithful to Jesus and His teachings. 🕊️🙏
I have you in my prayers and daily mass, most Rev. Bishop Strickland. I prayed for you especially today during rosary and mass. Thank you for standing up for righteousness. May God be with us in this battle.
The evil one knew exactly what he was doing when he said, "did God REALLY say...?" Up to the very day, so many people continue rationalizing, "Oh, he couldn't POSSIBLY..."
💘💘🙏💘💘
AMEN!
Wonderful little gem with true and faithful teaching of our faith!
Best Bishop out there! 🙏💕✝️! Praying for him!
AMAZINGLY CLEAR!
Love the way he is explaining it so clear.
Blessed are you Bishop Strickland for Speaking the truth of God.
I have learned so much from the Catechism of the Catholic Church. I use it in my Bible study. Amen! ❤
Really sad that this good shepherd has been canceled. Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on us. May God's will be done
Today, we find ourselves here after a span of 10 months, witnessing the removal of this individual from his bishopric by the Pope. The Catholic Church seems to be facing escalating issues and a decline in health.
What happened? Why did they remove this good Shephard? I have been seen posts from x about him and listening to him now gives me goosebumps. This is the kind of message and gospel that the world needs now. God help your church.
from Blessed Mother's message to Pedro Regis on 11/7/2023: "Dear children, you are heading towards a future of great spiritual confusion. Those who love and defend the truth will be persecuted and thrown out. The enemies will unite and revenge will come from the throne. I suffer because of what is coming for the righteous. Do not be discouraged. My Jesus is with you. Fearlessly proclaim the Gospel of my Jesus and the teachings of the TRUE MAGISTERIUM OF HIS CHURCH. The quagmire of false doctrines will spread, but the truth will win. God’s Victory will come for His Church. Do not retreat! The silence of the righteous strengthens the enemies of God. Go forward along the path that I have shown you! Do not depart from prayer and the Eucharist. This is the message that I give you today in the name of the Most Holy Trinity."
I know it will be hard to swallow,but this man,is telling us what was preached to me,as a young Catholic boy,I am 75,born in 1948,This is the true teaching of the Catholic faith!There is to much liberalism in the church,and way to much in society!We all need more discipline,in our faith and in our life’s!
One minister said we go to HELL one step at a time. Disordered thinking leads to disordered actions and rationalization . As one person told me "God wants me to be Happy" my response " No He wants me to be Holy.and then I will be happy."
If the pope would be as half as Holy as Bishop Strickland he would be more respected !
That is so true. People don't know what disordered is.
"For most of the planet across the world it would be disordered..." As a woman who has been married to one man for nearly 22 years and in all that time have never been unfaithful, I can say YES, my sexual expression in my life has been DISORDERED, even during this long time of monogamy! I'm not off the hook just because I'm married and straight. It is not always disordered, and it is not ONLY disordered, but nonetheless, even we who are in heterosexual unions for life are going to catch ourselves sinning sexually. Even women like me, in their 40s, who go to church and confession and pray constantly! Even nuns, monks, priests, SAINTS. It is increasingly difficult to avoid disordered sexual behavior in the world today, but I truly believe very very few people ever born throughout the history of humanity have avoided sexual sin. In the same way, nearly no one has avoided pride, greed, envy or sloth, neither have we been able to escape lust. The important thing is that when we fall down, we get up and turn from the sin, and when we fall again, we get up again, and again and again. Our sexual obsession in the modern age makes this seem like an insurmountable obstacle, but it is no more or less dangerous to our souls than the other sins, it just happens to have the spotlight on it in our age. Pray to the Theotokos for help in doing God's will. Pray to Saint Mary of Egypt for her intercessions on behalf of your debaucherous sin. God bless!
Good point. We're all disordered sexually...
Complex because we are living in a sexually sick time. Nice to have purity as a goal.
If sexual obsession and sexual sins are disorders of any kind should they be treated or are prayers enough to treat those disorders.
On the Commandment, 'You Shall Not Fornicate (Deut 5:18),' and Sexual Satisfaction, Our Lord says (excerpts from Maria Valtorta's Poem of Man-God, Vol. 1, pp.665-667): "Do not fornicate! Oh, tell Me, especially you men. Which of you has not tasted this bread made with ashes and excrement, which is Sexual Satisfaction? And is lust only what carries you for one hour between the arms of a prostitute? Is lust not also the desecrated union with your wife; desecrated because it is a ratified vice as it is reciprocal sensual satisfaction, which, however, evades its consequences?
Marriage means procreation and its act MEANS and MUST be fecundation. Otherwise it is immoral. You MUST not make a brothel of your nuptial beds, and that is what they become if they are soiled by lust and are not consecrated by maternity. The earth does not reject the seed. It receives it and makes a plant of it. The seed does not escape from the furrow after being laid there. But it takes root at once and it strives to grow and bear fruit, that is the vegetable creature born of the union between soil and seed. Man is the seed, woman is the soil, and the fruit is the son. It is sinful to refuse to bear fruit and scatter strength in vain. It is PROSTITUTION performed on the nuptial bed, and, in no way differs from the other prostitution. On the contrary, it is aggravated by disobedience to the command that says; "Be one flesh and multiply by bearing children (Gen 1:28, 2:24)."
Therefore, women, deliberately barren, legal and honest wives in the eyes of the world, but not in the eyes of God; you can see that you may be considered prostitutes, and you fornicate just the same, even if only with your husbands, because you do not seek maternity, but, too often, you are only after the pleasure. Do you not consider that Pleasure is a Poison that contaminates every mouth that tastes it? It burns with fire that seems to satisfy, instead it falls out of the fireplace and devours, more and more insatiable, leaving a sour taste of ash on the tongue as well as disgust, nausea and contempt of both oneself and the partner in pleasure, because when a conscience revives, and it does revive between two hearts, one can but feel such contempt of oneself, being lowered below the level of beasts.
A great deal of the carnal actions of men are fornications. And I do not take into consideration the inconceivable obsessive union which Leviticus condemns; "Man, you must not lie with a man as with a woman, and you must not lie with any animal (Lev 18:22-23)." But after mentioning the Duty of Husband and Wife in Marriage, which is no longer holy when it becomes barren through malice, I am going to speak of the true and proper fornication between man and woman performed out of reciprocal vice or for compensation in money or gifts. The human body is a magnificent temple that contains an altar. God should be on the altar. But God is not where there is corruption. Therefore impure body has a desecrated altar without God. Like a drunken person, who wallows in ire and in the regurgitations of his own drunkenness, man lowers himself in the brutality of fornication and becomes worse than the most impure worm and beast.
Tell Me, if among you, there is anyone who has perverted himself, which benefit did you gain? Take your hearts in your hands, examine them, question them, listen to them, note their wounds, their pangs, and then tell Me: was the fruit so sweet as to deserve such pain to a heart that was born pure and that you have compelled to live in impure body, and to beat to give life, and heat to lust, and to be worn out by vice? Tell Me: are you so perverted that you do not sob secretly, hearing the voice of a child calling, 'mummy', or thinking of your mothers, you, woman of pleasure, who have run away from home or have been driven out of them, so that the rotten fruit may not contaminate with its oozing rottenness the other good ones? Thinking of your mothers, who probably died broken-hearted, having to say, 'I gave birth to disgrace'? But above all, are you not terrified of the Just Judge, Who created you and is waiting for you to ask you, 'what have you done of yourself?' Did I, perhaps, give you life for that? How dare you come to My Presence, you, nest swarming with worms and putrefaction? You have had everything of what was your god: Pleasure. Go to the place of eternal malediction!"
Bishop Strickland you rock !

He is so stuck in a rut. Not a modern thinker. Christ would not want his church to evolve as time does itself.
Bravo Bishop Strickland for brave defend of the Church Teaching
This is what I was taught in RCIA back in 1991. Thanks be to God. I have seven children now instead of the 3 I thought we were going to have, Thanks be to God!!! Being Catholic is THE Best gift God has given to me!!! Thanks be to God.
What a great interview, you’ve packed into just a few minutes that which has plagued my life forever. Thank you for answering in truth. It’s sad that Protestant’s do not realize the catechism is from a time that goes back to the very first church.

On the contrary, it is aggravated by disobedience to the command that says; "Be one flesh and multiply by bearing children (Gen 1:28, 2:24)."
Therefore, women, deliberately barren, legal and honest wives in the eyes of the world, but not in the eyes of God; you can see that you may be considered prostitutes, and you fornicate just the same, even if only with your husbands, because you do not seek maternity, but, too often, you are only after the pleasure. Do you not consider that Pleasure is a Poison that contaminates every mouth that tastes it? It burns with fire that seems to satisfy, instead it falls out of the fireplace and devours, more and more insatiable, leaving a sour taste of ash on the tongue as well as disgust, nausea and contempt of both oneself and the partner in pleasure, because when a conscience revives, and it does revive between two hearts, one can but feel such contempt of oneself, being lowered below the level of beasts.
A great deal of the carnal actions of men are fornications. And I do not take into consideration the inconceivable obsessive union which Leviticus condemns; "Man, you must not lie with a man as with a woman, and you must not lie with any animal (Lev 18:22-23)." But after mentioning the Duty of Husband and Wife in Marriage, which is no longer holy when it becomes barren through malice, I am going to speak of the true and proper fornication between man and woman performed out of reciprocal vice or for compensation in money or gifts. The human body is a magnificent temple that contains an altar. God should be on the altar. But God is not where there is corruption. Therefore impure body has a desecrated altar without God. Like a drunken person, who wallows in ire and in the regurgitations of his own drunkenness, man lowers himself in the brutality of fornication and becomes worse than the most impure worm and beast.
Tell Me, if among you, there is anyone who has perverted himself, which benefit did you gain? Take your hearts in your hands, examine them, question them, listen to them, note their wounds, their pangs, and then tell Me: was the fruit so sweet as to deserve such pain to a heart that was born pure and that you have compelled to live in impure body, and to beat to give life, and heat to lust, and to be worn out by vice? Tell Me: are you so perverted that you do not sob secretly, hearing the voice of a child calling, 'mummy', or thinking of your mothers, you, woman of pleasure, who have run away from home or have been driven out of them, so that the rotten fruit may not contaminate with its oozing rottenness the other good ones? Thinking of your mothers, who probably died broken-hearted, having to say, 'I gave birth to disgrace'? But above all, are you not terrified of the Just Judge, Who created you and is waiting for you to ask you, 'what have you done of yourself?' Did I, perhaps, give you life for that? How dare you come to My Presence, you, nest swarming with worms and putrefaction? You have had everything of what was your god: Pleasure. Go to the place of eternal malediction!"
I’m Catholic and agree. Any other is a sin in the Bible.
Amen Brother… thank you for keeping the Faith🙏🙏
Why do we not apply the same pressure on German bishops ?
God bless you Bishop Strickland!

We need to be clear of where the disorders are…. Amen!
Contracepted sex for a married couple is disordered! Thank you for saying it, Bishop!
Father Mikes Schimtz Catechism in a year is doing great!
I've started to read a Catholic Catechism, but it's not easy to read, like a book is...
I don't know anything about this Priest...
Thank you for sharing.💘🙏💘
@@zionlion4445 Father Mike Schmitz also did the Bible in a Year a couple of years ago. It was the #1 podcast for quite some time. He is a wonderful priest in my home state of Minnesota and I got to attend a Mass of his at the U of M Duluth where he is assigned at the Newman Center.
@@zionlion4445 if you look up Ascension Press. You will see Father Mikes podcast of Bible in a year and the catechism. It’s awesome because he explains them very well.

Thank you, Julie, I remember watching an interview that Megyn Kelly had with him recently. I know that he has a You Tube channel, but I've been busy with Fr. Mark's, Bishop Barron's, John Henry-Westen's show, and lately, this channel...
Praying that Matt reaches 300K soon! 💘💘💘🙏💘💘💘

Thank you so much for sharing, Lapua!
I wish you the Happiest New Year ever! 💘🙏💘
Bishop Strickland is a rock solid pastor. As an unmarried Christian man, I must say no to sexual sin for the good of my soul. How is that any different from someone who struggles with SSA? It is difficult sometimes but holiness always is, which is why we treasure it.
This Bishop is a hero.
Bottom line, Martin is a disgrace as a priest. HE should be shown the door. Why hasn't he been?
