Its so amazing to me, that everything in our bible and faith is so closely connected and points to the Eucharist. Truly the secret of our faith. Saddening that our non-catholic brothers and sister do not take part in such a holy gift. God Bless!

You will never understand the effect that your preaching has on the growth of souls, but one day you will be face to face with God and you will see yourself how many people you have helped and how much peace you have brought to the world

Fr Brett Brannen ( To Save a Thousand of Souls ) The purpose of celibacy is to learn to love the way the saints love in heaven. Celibacy is about intimacy with Jesus, the only one who can fill the void that is within us all. This is why prayer is so essential in the life of a priest. Intimacy with Jesus leads to love and intimacy with his people. Therefore priests who pray faithfully generally are not lonely. But when a priest is not praying and when he isolates himself from people, this can lead to loneliness and the desire to self-medicate to take the edge off. Yes, there will always be some nights in the life of a priest when he lies in bed and aches for a companion. God made us this way. He made us for union. But the priest raises his mind and heart to Jesus in these times and says, “Yes Lord, I ache tonight for a female companion. But my life is an eschatological sign to the world that you alone can fill the human heart.And I am glad to ache for you, to bring that truth to the world. I am glad you called me to be a priest! Now I am going to sleep.”
What a beautiful explanation, im actually studying an anthropology on the nuptial mysteries and reading a book on the old testament back to its origin and this explanation totally makes it soooo much easier to comprehend... anyway Im a Mexican and speaks Spanish, I do understand english but in order to pass this valuable info on to only Spanish speaking its kinda difficult with the closed caption also in english!.

Thank you. I never really considered the theology of the body as a Biblical subject. But it makes perfect sense being created in the image of God and we see right there in Scripture how marriage and intimacy between man and woman replicates the image of our relationship with God
Once experienced swelling of the Eucharist in mouth…was a young girl at the time. There was no euphoria really but just that “feeling.” It only happened once but wish it would again. God bless y’all.
Your heart is the throne of God. The issues of life flow from the heart. Guard it. That’s why Jesus said you must eat my flesh and drink my blood and then said if you love me you’ll obey me… He said the same thing in both places but tests to see if He’s really Lord in your heart and say “Lord, what do you mean?” or if you’ll be offended and say He’s evil. Then He says to love God and men and says “Go into all the world and preach the gospel…” and never says if they hate you then you can hate them back. He says Love them even when they kill you and share what you have with your brothers and sisters and don’t look down on them.
This very profound. I have recently rediscovered my Faith and have always received the Holy Eucharist on my tongue, never even touching my teeth, but never kneeling. Now since experiencing the Latin Mass I don't ever want to receive any other way. The Father feeds his sheep and I am not worthy to touch my Saviour. I would gladly be possessed by the Father. I've heard a podcast with a exorcist where he quoted a demon saying that they love that the dogs(us) recieve the Nazarene (Jesus) in our filthy paws. I would never aspire of touching my Father, His Son or the Holy Spirit with my filthy paws!
Are they still filthy, though, after Jesus himself has washed you clean in baptism? Isn’t the whole reason He humbled himself to become human and face death so that you could be made right and brought into a close relationship with Him? He clearly has no issue coming into contact with us, even our filth. He was born in a stable during a time of increased traffic. It would have been disgusting. The woman with the issue of blood was ceremonially unclean, but Jesus commended her for touching him. The same goes for the prostitute who washed his feet. Not to mention that He touched lepers and the sick himself. He even surrendered himself to be stripped, tortured, and killed by pagan Roman hands. Remember, your sinful hands nailed Him to the cross and held Him there, and so they are stained with his broken body and spilled blood. But that blood is the very thing that washes you clean from sin; indeed it is the only thing that can. So it is only by taking his body and blood into your own hands that they can be made clean. We are guilty of breaking his body, unless we eat it too. We are guilty of spilling his blood, unless we bathe in it. There’s nothing wrong with receiving the body and blood directly in the mouth if you wish, but don’t condemn your brothers and sisters for wanting to reach out and touch Jesus like the woman with the issue of blood, and don’t tell them they are filthy when Jesus has washed them with water and Word so they may be holy and blameless (Ephesians 5:26-27). As to your quote about the exorcist, when faced with lies and evil, Jesus quoted Scripture, not demons. We should take our teaching from Him and his Word, not from a demon. The demon may have said that in the hopes that it would continue to stir up division among the church over this issue.

Thank you so much Christopher ! Amazing. This is a random question. I stopped doing yoga when I became a Christian, but there is something prayerful about some forms of yoga and I want to pray to Jesus in body movement. Is there anything that you know that exists that might satisfy this desire? Does Theology of the body teach about this topic? Thanks for considering my questions , united in God.
This is a difficult and important question. While we must be wary of pagan religious practices, bodily experience is fundamental to our intimacy with God - no where more so than in the Eucharist! It is the essence of sacramentality. Can the disciplines of stretching, moving, and breathing found in yoga be incorporated into meditative prayer? I believe so. They can also be incorporated into new age pagan worship. So ultimately, I would urge you to be very discerning in whom you follow if you choose to practice yoga.
@@TheologyoftheBodyInstitute thanks so much for your reply! There are some catholics who say you can not seperate the hindi religion and Gods from the movements of yoga. It is a fervently debated topic. I feel both camps say something true. Yes, no invisible force owns body movement, the name of Jesus is powerful over all things...and yes yoga is part of pagan religion and christian yoga might be syncretism... so how can i fulfill my desire to worship Jesus in eucharistic meditation and body movement...I will ask Jesus to guide me. I would be realy greatful if you can point me to anywhere you or theology of the body teaches about this subject. United in prayer 🙂
@@angelamarie9874 hi there, so I’m an ex occultist / yogi, I dove deep into the occult in my teens, I am now a practicing Catholic - do not do yoga, it’s inherently spiritual and is explicit Hindu worship - just telling you from experience - look into a guy named Steven bancarz (he is a Christian who exposes new age/occult creeping into the church) he has many videos on this topic and others.
Faith is Wisdom that makes a human adhere to Trust that Our CREATOR is ONE AND ONLY in SELF. Not all the divisions of beliefs lived in one life because a human conned fools to believe in religion gods . The idiotic ignorant fools know to conquer money as a kingdom of survival but have failed hopeless to Unify The One and Only CREATOR
The Mass is not enough though. That's one kiss a week from your Divine Spouse. Imagine only having one opportunity a week to be intimate with your spouse. Married couples kiss multiple times a day sometimes, if their relationship is healthy. The soul who is not married has to wait just to have ONE spiritual kiss from God in the Eucharist per week. It's not enough. And daily Mass isn't always possible for people, and yet that itself only amounts to ONE kiss per day at most. It's not enough.
A lot of people reject Jesus because: 1) There is NO SEXUAL INTERCOURSE IN HEAVEN because men and women will not be married to each other in heaven (Matthew 22:30). 2) There is NO CHILDBEARING IN HEAVEN because God said that he would give the eunuchs a name and place better than sons and daughters (Isaiah 56:4-5).
Read the Saints - they were basically all mystics - the difference between new age spirituality and Catholic Christian spirituality is the relationship with God, there is no other religion or spiritual practice that offers an intimate relationship with our Creator - Catholics worship creator - everyone else worships a form of Gods creation - massive difference there
Its so amazing to me, that everything in our bible and faith is so closely connected and points to the Eucharist. Truly the secret of our faith. Saddening that our non-catholic brothers and sister do not take part in such a holy gift. God Bless!
Let's pray that we become one as the Lord calls us to!
