    AWESOME presentation. I made a PROMISE to God that I would pray for the souls in purgatory every day of the rest of my life. Please I challenge you to do the same. These souls are suffering more than we could imagine. They will do the same for us when WE go to purgatory.
    May the souls of the faithful departed rest in PEACE, AMEN

      Stop with the Hail Mary's.! There is no such thing in the Bible.Hail Mary, was a message the angel gave to Mary from God to explain to her that she would get pregnant by the Holy Spirit placing Jesus in her womb.Mary is not part of the Hothead ! She is not deity ! We are not to pray to her or any saints as the catholic church teaches.They are sending people to hell by the millions by their wrong teaching !.Stop believing these lies.Get out of the Catholic cult.!

      @@donnabernick6467 the whole Hail Mary prayer is completely scriptural, taken from from the Gospel of St Luke. Please correct your misconceptions of the Catholic church, outside which no one is saved. We DO NOT worship her but give Mary honour as the immaculate mother of Christ. You Protestants ask your friends to pray for you, in the same way, we ask Mary and the saints. Please....the full canonical bible wasn't compiled until the 4th century AD. Perhaps the early Christians were misled because they had to rely on Sacred Tradition?

      @Peter Cho( All paths lead to God the Creator of mankind. The followers of God interpret the Teachings in different ways that lead to confusion. Once confusion sets in you can be sure that the only way is to simplify your beliefs. Simply believe in and honor your Creator.)
      John 14:6 tells me that all paths do not lead to God and that the rest of your paragraph is false as well. Yes it does sound pious and spiritual , but anytime you have anything false put into any prophecy then you need to chuck the whole prophecy out.
      1 Cor 6:11 tells me that I am washed already , I am justified already, and I am sanctified already, and there is absolutely no need for me to go anywhere for any length of time to clean up my soul, when The Lord tells me He has done it already. Purgatory is a lie of Satan and the RCC has promoted it , rather than removing it as they should have.

      @Peter Cho "These nations will consist of some nations in the world who have shown allegiance to Me, God the Father, My Son Jesus Christ and the Mother of God, Queen of Heaven."
      As soon as I saw this , I realized you are listening to Satan masquerading as an angel of light.
      Your reference to Mary the queen of heaven is heretical nonsense. You obviously do not question everything as the bible tells you in 1 Thessalonians 5:21 but test everything; hold fast what is good.
      and by example Acts 17: 11 Now the Bereans were more noble-minded than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if these teachings were true.
      You just blindly accept this pious nonsense as if God is speaking when in reality He is not.
      Your reference to Rev 12 is not talking about Mary it is talking metaphorically about Israel.
      =--=
      His Blessed Mother, the Mother of Salvation, was crowned Queen of Heaven and will also reign as Queen of the New Paradise.
      Her Coronation in Heaven was a very special Divine Manifestation of her role in the future of the salvation of the world.
      She was crowned in great honour and splendour for the role she played, not only as the Mother of God and as spouse of the Holy Spirit, but as the Mother of Salvation given the power to destroy Satan.
      Absolute trash without any back up in any scripture whatsoever. You should be ashamed of yourself for not having any gumption to check out the scriptures to any of these silly claims . This is satanic nonsense to lead people away from the Only savior Jesus Christ.
      John 14:6 does this verse say Mary has anything to do with salvation?
      Queen of Heaven was a title given to a number of ancient sky goddesses worshipped throughout the ancient Mediterranean and Near East during ancient times. Goddesses known to have been referred to by the title include Inanna, Anat, Isis, Astarte, and possibly Asherah (by the prophet Jeremiah).

According to tradition, our Lord promised her that 1000 souls would be released from purgatory each time it is said devoutly.
    Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.

      Pope Leo XIII warned us that there is no such prayer that is guaranteed to deliver a fixed number of souls from Purgatory. Also, the so-called Prayer of St. Gertrude was not found among her writings.
      But that does not mean that this prayer is ineffectual. It actually is a very good prayer. But don't expect an automatic 1000 souls being delivered every time you say it.

    EXODUS 20:4-6
    “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
    And yet you see Catholics bowing down to and praying to religious idols and statues of Mary and peter and st. Antony who ever the hell he is when God himself says don't do this and don't tell me that the catholics don't pray to idols because I was not born yesterday just look at the internet where you will find pictures of Pope Francis kneeling down to and praying to and kissing the feets of idols of Mary and Mary with baby Jesus
    Revelation 21:8
    But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

      Religious art is a help to raising the mind and heart to God. No Catholic l know adores a statue, which is only stone or plaster. The artistic representations are a method for focusing on the Divine. Two angels decorated the ark of the Covenant. The Jews knew the difference between idolatry and religious art. My own particular favorite is stained glass window. Kisses for statues, bowing in front of pictures etc are really showing love and adoration for God. The objects remind us of the gifts of God. Thank you for your concern but you really are mistaken if you think Catholics or Orthodox adore church art. Blessings

      Now you listen to me very carefully. We Catholics do not pray to statues or to any idols. The figures are symbols only of a given person and are treated as such. Mary is the Mother of God-Jesus Christ and is the only human being without original sin. Jesus, hanging on the cross, said to Saint. John: "Behold your mother." Mary is the Mother of all people, including yours. I know that for you the only mediator between God and people is Jesus Christ, but Jesus Christ has His Mother, whose prayers He listens to. We do not honor saints, we only pray through their intercession. The Protestant Bible is different than the Catholic one, so don't compare it with the Catholic one! As for waking up in hell... If someday, in the future, death knocks on your door, you will see that it was not you who were right, but Catholics and the Catholic Church !
