Not a Catholic but I’ve been raised nondenominational Christian. You and your content are a big reason I’ve been strongly considering Roman Catholicism.
The Church awaits you, brother.
Let the Holy Spirit lead you where you truly belong: The one and only true Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
May you find your way home.
God bless you, my friend!
@@guithomasfl Catholics aren’t saved so what is the point of “becoming”catholic.this post is just disinformational catholic propaganda.

Father Casey, your videos have helped me so much learn about being Catholic at a time when I really was not sure if I wanted to return to my faith. Thank you so much for your work. Keep going you are changing lives.
Thanks Father from old New Orleans 😇
Always wondered why catholics call priests father. Matthew 23 verse 8 says do not call anyone father nor teacher. The father is only one ,God, and teacher is only Jesus just curious
@@sharkyandbabyorchie6949 Call no men your father?? Jesus uses hyperbole to post a warning that no one should pridefully desire honorific titles his words were not in the literal .terms like father and rabbi were given to esteemed teachers as a sign of respect. the nt writers elsewhere use father for not natural fathers heb 12:7-11 and spiritual fathers in the ch(1cori 4:15 philem10) the spiritual fatherhood of new covenant priests (judg17:10; 18:19) the verse does not forbid addressing natural fathers in fact apostles referred by to themselves as spiritual fathers and Christians in the community they founded as their children (pet 5:13 gal4:19) ccc2367
*Everything in Roman Catholic ct is man made. Bible does not teach "exorcism with garlic holy water and crucifix". Bible teaches "cast out demons in Jesus' name". And all believers can cast out demons. You do not need any Roman ct priests to "chant 1000 years or sprinkle Roman ct unholy water or throw salt and garlic".*
Mar 16:17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;
Evidently you have never dealt with a demon. I was accosted by a demon. The Holy Spirit prayed through me in another language All Night Long before that demon left. The devil doesn't give up that easy. Sometimes a person has many demons in them. They all will fight for the right to stay where they are and torment that person. It may take months of working with someone to eliminate all the evil in and around them. Jesus told his disciples, when some of them tried to cast out demons and they wouldn't obey, that some only come out after fasting and prayer. You have to be in the right frame of mind, heart and soul, in order to do an exorcist.
Be careful with your attitude. Christians can't be Possessed with a demon, but they can be Oppressed by a demon. Don't try to eliminate a demon on your own if that would come up. They know who is spiritually ready to deal with them and who isn't. They could attack you.
If you are willing, go to the Pints With Aquinas UA-cam channel and watch a full interview with a priest exorcist; or watch the Michael Knowles show interview with a woman who was delivered out of years as a psychic medium. Both of them have chilling events to tell. This could help in your understanding of the occult evil in the world.
Father, I'm a victim of demonic possession. My case has been under the bishop of my diocese for several years now. I had diabolical manifestations just watching this video, especially the parts where you recited the prayers. I never knew the rite to be this long and complex. I believe in the authority of Christ exercised through the Church. I really need one of these, please pray for me.
I will pray for you. In Jesus name, be healed and be rid of the evil spirits who torment you! In the name Jesus our Lord through his blessed mother Mary. Be healed! Amen.
go see a shrink
@@Eighty8percentThe case being investigated for several years probably implies he already has
@Eighty8percent I'm seeing one, actually. And they've affirmed the spiritual reality
@@blingknight1 Amen. Thank you
I'm from Portugal, and I'm fortunate to have an exorcist in my parish, recognized by the bishop, and blessed to have studied and learned from the late Father Amorth, may God have him in his glory. Father Duarte Sousa Lara.
God bless the Portuguese Catholic Church. May the recent scandal lead more souls to God than before

Enlightening as always!! God bless His church, The Priests, Fr. Casey Cole and all the faithfuls..Amen
great video Father Casey
I would also like to address a few of the objections that I usually see about the subject and that some people have made in this comment section.
1- "Why aren’t exorcisms filmed"
you can find exorcisms filmed, but you need the person's consent, and even when it's filmed it's not like most cases of demonic possession give people superpowers or anything that would raise an eye brown.
2-"Why aren’t they studied by secular scientists?"
they have been studied by secular scientists, but as the video said, it's a rare (but although important) usually monotonous process.
3-"Everything I’ve read on exorcisms is just a lot of anecdotal evidence that I don’t find convincing at all."
We aren't saying they are like a flue, there is a reason most exorcisms don't go forward in the catholic process, it usually isn't considered possession, but has a natural cause.
4- If it's not true wouldn't it be medically harmful
Honestly, the catholic exorcism process probably leads to finding more mental health diagnoses than we finding cases we consider demonic possession.
Many religious people who are reluctant to call a psychologist/psychiatrist go to one because their priest requires them to do so (because if they don't the exorcism isn't allowed).
And let's suppose it's just an ultra-rare disease that has no cure, can't be diagnosed, and persists even after a year, in that case at least the exorcism will be a placebo which is useful to the person and it's better than nothing.
5- "why would psychologists examine these cases, I bet most psychologists don’t believe in the possibility of demonic possession. It just seems like it’s disingenuous."
There is nothing inherent about psychologists or psychiatrist that make them incapable of being in demonic possession, smart people can believe in the supernatural, however, it's of fundamental importance for psychologists or psychiatrist to treat any mental illness according to its protocol, and not resort to saying mental illnesses or caused by demonic possession.
Plus, mental illness is carefully studied and defined, they can be a secular mental health professional, but if they are intellectually honest, they will say that a specific case doesn't fit in any established diagnosis in the DMS-5 or anything similar reported in the scientific literature, these things happen, even most doctors have reported experiencing thing they can't explain conventionally.
look, I am not saying exorcisms can't be harmful, but at least the catholic ones usually aren't because of the large number of precautions church the process takes.
When someone close to me had to be admitted to hospital due to mental illness I told the priest and his first reaction was to say thank goodness, because a lot of people came to him wondering about possession and evil spirits etc.
Very good explanation.
@@TrixRN thank you very much : D
Someone once joked that it's easier to win a lottery than to get a Vatican approved exorcism.
True story-I had a family member that went to seminary pre-Vatican II. He didn't take his vows, but I remember when I was in high school he found his old exorcism pamphlet. My siblings and I were shocked for a moment and then started freaking out that all the movies were 100% true and we didn't sleep for like a week. We also made promises to each other that we would get the priest ASAP if anything happened. LOL!!!
You should fear god only then you wouldn’t have to worry about any demon or Satan himself in the name of Jesus Christ our lord and saviour amen ❤️🙏
Exorcisme is not real. If it were real, it would be on the news. People who say they are possessed. They are mentally disturbed.
Sometimes after being angered at all the pope-hater UA-camrs, I am being reminded of your kind existence. Thanks for your down to earthness. Love ya!
U reminded me to pray fr Pope. I was quiet sceptic abt him. But who m I to judge.
LORD hv mercy
There is a difference between Exorcism and Deliverance. Exorcism, involving an exorcist, is done in cases of persons who are mostly or even completely under the control of one or more demon spirits. Deliverance sessions are done for people who are being harassed by a demon spirit, or who have an addiction or compulsion that is not just the result of an emotional or psychiatric problem but is the result of direct influence of a demon. MANY people can benefit from prayer for deliverance, while only a few people are truly possessed and require the ministry of an exorcist.
I dont think you really took notice of this video. In the Catholic church there is no such thing as Deliverance.
The Church teaches about different kinds of demonic operation namely; Oppression, Infestation, vexation and Possession.
@@spaceforgrace3312 yes. There is. I am currently in a school, authorized by my Archbishop that teaches Deliverance Ministry, remember the 70/72 Jesus sent out.
@@meaganmcgrath7556 well I've learned something today!
Really, I cannot see the difference between Deliverance & Exorcism - both are attempts to send the demon packing.
Your videos are well done. You explain concepts well, not too “academic”, but still giving them due respect. Thank you.
Another great talk Father Casey... can you please talk about the Rosary? Specifically in a way that will help Protestants understand why it's not "vain repetition" and why it's not worship of Mary... I'm a protestant who has discovered the Rosary and while I have found praying it has dramatically improved my spiritual life I still feel conflicted because of the various protestant arguments that linger in my head...
Well, repetition is one thing, and vain is another. Is it wrong to repeat prayer? Are you supposed to pray something slightly different each time, to avoid repetition? Nope! And the rosary is not in vain. Quite the opposite, assuming you are not just treating it like some kind of magical formula. We can never call out to our sweet, beloved Holy Mother and meditate upon each mystery too many times. And the honor and reverence we give to Mary is different than the true worship, latria, that we give to the Blessed Trinity. Also, please, Mary wants you to be fully in communion with her Sons church!
@Maxim Newdel Thanks Maxim! I've been a protestant for 40 years so it's not a quick process... in a nutshell I married a Catholic and our kids have been going to a catholic school for years and slowly I've been realizing that there are many things that some Protestants believe about Catholics that just aren't true... in some cases I'm getting a sense that the Christian life is definitely incomplete outside of Catholicism and I know people who would have a spiritual heart attack if they heard me say that :p
Every line of the Hail Mary is about God.
Hail Mary, full of GRACE.
The LORD is with thee,
BLESSED art though amongst women,
And BLESSED is the fruit of thy womb, JESUS.
HOLY Mary, mother of GOD, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, amen.
@@kerinskuriosities Your heart seems to be tender towards Catholicism and I think that’s amazing. I know it might not be the quickest process, but I think that if you prayerfully decide to join an RCIA, perhaps at your nearby parish, you could be confirmed and fully received by next year. It depends. I recommend talking to a priest about any of your qualms with Catholicism, going to mass with your wife and kids if you haven’t (without receiving Communion), and maybe even praying the rosary as a family too.
@Aayush Kumar No offense Aayush but how do you get any of that from my comment? I actually don't belong to a church of any denomination at the moment, so it's literally impossible for me to love my church while not attending one. Secondly there is nothing in my comment that spreads hate. There's nothing hateful about just trying to understand where my brothers are coming from when they choose to pray a little differently to me, but I can assure you when I am praying or reading scripture, however I do it procedurally speaking, I'm doing it in Spirit and in Truth. Also you misquoted me, I said that, "I'm getting a sense that... is incomplete..." I wasn't necessarily making an absolute statement, I'm talking about a deep feeling or sense that my experience for the past 40 years as a protestant has been incomplete. Please don't put words in my mouth.
Love your videos Fr. Casey. You are such a good speaker
Fr Casey, I truly enjoy your videos and learn so much. Being a cradle Catholic I had an adequate understanding but Breaking the Habit and everything on Ascension had deepened my faith. Thank you. May the peace of God be with you.
Well said
This feels like a direct rebuke to your bot who keeps telling us about our demonic forces. Great, succinct video, Fr. Casey. Thanks a bunch.
What bot?
@@dewilew2137 if you look around at various breaking in the habit videos-and maybe upon friar review-there's some spam thing promising exorcism and "somethin's coming, somethin' good" prosperity-gospel put-it-out-into-the-universe nonsense.

Always enjoy your videos! It's educational and practical. You have modernized the teaching of the church into bite-size as well as incorporated the modern-day human attention span which is about 10-15 minutes.

A great explanation, Casey. Nana and I have been in the presence of two women being delivered. Not necessarily an exorcism, but even so, very unsettling. May God bless you and keep you holy.
When I did my Masters degree I was good friends with a 60 year old colleague who was married to a Thai wife. One evening while we were in the computer lab he told me that while he and his family was in Thailand, his family said he behaviour suddenly became extremely bizarre. Finally, after much consultation with the local Thai people, his wife and kids were told to bring the husband to a Catholic church for an exorcism which was performed by a Catholic priest.
I didn't think much of the story that my colleague told me but he did seem to be quite genuine about the story that took place in Thailand and I had know the person for around 2 years already.
However, one evening his 14 year old son and 18 year old daughter had accompanied their father to the computer lab that day. Just for the sake of interest, I asked the son and daughter about their dad's demonic possession and exorcism that took place in Thailand. Sure enough, the son and daughter vouched on behalf of the father that the father's demonic possession and exorcism were 100% REAL.
The father wasn't in the room at the time when I asked the son and daughter about their father's demonic possession either and both the son and daughter had no reason to lie to me either since they knew I was good friends with their dad.
It's interesting, since I also encountered a second demonic possession story while I was in the Philippines. However, this one the teenage girl that had become possessed was due to her playing with the occult....
People who are highly skeptical of demonic possessions and exorcism need to be informed that these spiritual paranormal events are indeed 100% REAL phenomenons that exist and happen to people. As the Bible tells us, the spiritual and physical world interact with one another and the Bible does explicitly warn people never to tamper with the occult.
Nice video, enlightening as always, Friar Casey!!
Anytime I have a nightmare if I close my eyes in the dream and pray to God I’ll either wake up or get out of the scary situation in my dream. 💤 ⛈️🙏🏻🌤️ 💤
Thank you for answering my unasked question about demonic possession versus mental conditions. Like many, I have wondered what the line is between the two.
Keep up the good videos .
Fr. Ripperger is a great exorcist
Father Lampert Vincent, father Dan Reheel, msgr Stephen
Thanks for the video it's great to learn even more about our faith
I love you are tackling this topic 🕊️
Thank you Fr...
It was really helpful
I was in a docudrama about Exorcism playing the victim of demonic possession in one of the vignettes. It's called The Rite of Exorcism: Myth, Mystery, and Hope.
I've been sort of scared recently.. but I saw this video came at the right time. Praise Jesus!
Learn so much from you, every subject.
Awesome video Father Casey!
Thank you Father 🙏🙏
Another great teacher of catholicism thankyou God bless you
Fr thanks so much for your teaching iam a catheciser iam getting more knowledge, may God Almighty bless you in abundance and the whole team Goretti from Zambia
This is very timely given recently released catholic movies such as The Popes Exorcist and Nefarious
Nefarious has high ratings because it demonstrates the demonic mind. It's written by Catholics.
Neither of those films are Catholic. The Pope’s Exorcist is riddled with inaccuracies & outright fabrications of Fr. Amorth’s book. Nefarious is by a Protestant, while it makes good points, it is fiction & not Catholic.
@@TrixRN You're wrong. Nefarious is written and directed by Catholics with a priest consultant.
@@carolynkimberly4021 Steve Deace, who wrote the book, is not Catholic. I didn’t think both producers were Catholic, but I could be wrong.
We all have the power to cast out demons through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Father Casey,
I wish more parishes did weekly small groups. I know the Jesuits have their CLC groups.
I was raise Roman Catholic, I was an alter server for 7 years. I had my first encounter with Jesus when I was 10 when my life was spared.
Now I go to a non denominational church but am always looking for parishes that do more than just weekly mass.
I know some of my outlooks are different from the church, like I believe that as the Church treats baptism for babies as a dedication ceremony. Parents saying I am dedicating raising this child in the teachings of the church. Right now I am in a church that does have small groups that meet on Sundays and Wednesdays and my kids go to Sunday school and Wednesdays. I wish there were more parishes out there to both equip and sustain its families.
Fr. Casey forgive me for being this naive but please, I've always wondered do you use a teleprompter kind of reminder for your videos or do the words just flow out of you? I mean the scripting is incredible but do you memorise it and deliver it so perfectly or is it just an editing process that makes the presentation all put together perfectly? Please I wanted to know so I can learn how to do it too, Thank you!
On the night of June 19, 2022 I saw Jesus and he talked to me. The next night, just as we entered summer, I had a visual and sensorial experience of possession of both my brain and my heart. I went to see a exorcist priest in Paris. He told me what I have was not a possession and that it was not something bad for me. However I still feel it and I’m still worried.
Well, they have books and pamphlets available with the pertinent prayers. And search UA-cam for interviews with Catholic Priest Exorcists. Although I have no reason to believe that I am possessed, some of the videos offer great advice for staying demon-free, and to get rid of partial possessions, which is a real thing. I remember some of it, which is basically just being a “Good Catholic “, such as going to confession and receiving the Eucharist; playing (actual) Gregorian Chant continuously, at a low level, in your house; and the big one, pray the rosary at least 3 times a day, at precisely 6:00 AM (Fr. Carlos Martins says that 7:00 AM won’t do. It MUST be 6:00 AM), 12:00 noon and 6:00 PM.
UA-cam videos with Fr. Carlos Martins (a former atheist, he’s actually taught other priests how to be exorcists), and Fr. Ripperger seem to have the largest presence on the web, although neither one has a website. Fr. Carlos does have a podcast, though. The Exorcist Files.
Or else, just search the web for prayers to protect you from demons.
It doesn’t sound to me that you’re fully possessed, though I’m no expert. I just watch UA-cam videos about it.
9:13 YES! It's very cultural down here in Brazil to attribute one's misfortune into evil spirits, evil wishes and evil feelings from others. It's so clear in my mind that none of these have absolutely no power over my life, simply because I don't allow it to and because God, who infinitely more powerful than petty evil, protects me from it at all times.
I know someone who was legitimately possessed and her mother took her to some type of witch doctor in Mexico, they were Mexican. The witch doctor knew things there was no way he could. They didn’t contact him beforehand. Her mother was raised in that village so they just showed up. Apparently he lived in like a small like adobe hut with a small alter. She went with her brother and mother and it was the brother who told me all the details of what happened there. Still scares the hell out of me.
HAPPY family of holy trinity ✝️🛐❤️🔥
🙏 very clearly explained the truth in a very simple way..for the one's who wish to learn the true works of God Amen
Hey, when a video from Upon Friar Review? God Bless
What brings me comfort is a exorcist's preparation for the exorcism. It's so simple, it's humbling. He goes to the confession, he receives Lord's body in the Eucharist, he prays, he fasts. Nothing mystical, nothing magical, and yet so very important. It's all about our Lord Jesus Christ, the minister is only a faithful servant. God bless the priesthood! :)
Very informative! This video boosts my faith, to focus to God, Jesus, Our Saviour, Protector, Redeemer.
Thanks Father from old New Orleans 😇
Hello Father Casey! Big fan here! Thank you for making your evangelization project so much fun and effective! I often pray for you, because we need more people like you to show the kind and non-judgmental side of our Catholic faith. I had a horrible experience one time I felt my home was going through some “negative energy”. I won’t go into details, but NOTHING related to exorcisms is to be played with. Neither are games or anything related to the occult. I learned my lesson well.

Thank you father
Not sure if anyone will see this.
But does casting an evil spirit out, sometimes lead to the person being in a worse condition?
I'm just thinking about Matthew 12:43-45.
I got possessed about 7 years ago, it was intense.
But God helped me overcome them and then said "I will lead you to me one day."
Four years later, backed up into a corner and out of fight, I called out to Him.
And within the next day or two I found Jesus.
But the demonic influence didn't immediately leave like I'd hoped it would have.
Instead I got a word from someone "Don't seek a cure, draw closer to God."
Ultimately I feel like that might be the way God wants me to go about it.
Walking in repentance and sanctification, slowly giving them less and less room in my mind, heart and life.
I've tried asking people to cast them out of me in the past.
Even tried casting them out myself with seemingly varying results.
But I would usually find moments of peace and freedom, followed by a heavier burden and suffering, as worse demons showed up.
So yeah, sorry I do usually get a bit carried away with explaining stuff.
But I was wondering if that was something that is mentioned in these understandings.
Cheers and God bless you and yours everybody ✝️
Thank you for making this video.
Good video Father Casey- so much nonsense around and even some in the comments below. People are like lost sheep. Glad you mentioned Ireneaus as I'm reading him now and finding how much people love to make things up for reasons of feeling more special or for some weird excitement. The Catholic church is a beacon of experience and rigour and common sense too in our misled times. How much stuff people concoct out of sheer ignorance is astonishing to me.
OH NO! The Catholic Church has lost its way sadly 😥 - they are in competition with Holywood.
As Christians, we need to ask ourselves these questions:
What are we expected to take with us spiritually once we've vacated this mortal body?
What have we learnt & done on this Earth that we can proudly stand before The Lord Jesus Christ on judgement day when we face Him?
Pride, almost arrogance displayed - our Catholic priests are the only one's who are powered to perform an exorcism. Are they really the only ones who can perform this act/service- effectively? 🤔
@@patthompson8591 I think the point was that this is how it is perceived by Hollywood. Lots of people may try to perform exorcisms and may succeed but even Hollywoood in the the way it portrays possession seems to think only a Catholic priest can perform them effectively.
Is it necessary for any kind of exorcism (minor/major) to be performed in Latin or any other language may do?
Your'e back!
Colossians 2:15 (KJV) [And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Father, do you have any videos on the Third Order, OFS? If not can you do one please :) Pax et Bonum.
A very concise explanation 👏👏👏👏👏
These videos are amazing
I was blessed to do pastoral work with Fr. Vince Lampert, who was in your clip, before he was trained as an exorcist. Not sure I believed in exorcism before chatting with Fr. Vince.
God bless u I'm from California
I'm old enough to remember when the priest told the congregation not to see "The Exorcist"!
The best part was when Fr. Casey said the demons would leave out of boredom. So funny!
GLORY TO YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST ALWAYS AND FOREVERMORE HALLELUJAH AMEN AMEN PRAISE BE TO GOD 🙏🙏🙏
Very educational! Does the demon leave the person at the end of the rite, or will the rite continue until the demon leaves? If the latter, how long does a more persistent exorcism last typically?
Thank you Fr. Casey, once again, for another very informative video! Speaking of exorcism films, I hope you and Fr. Tito, on your film podcast, Everyday Liminality, will do an analysis of the recent film "The Pope's Exorcist", which is loosely based on the life of the exorcist Fr. Gabriele Amort.
Say what you want about Roman Catholicism. Whether you agree with it, or disagree with it, you cannot argue that any other institution has done more for the arts than Roman Catholic Church. Whether it is grandeur of the architecture, sculptures and paintings of the Renaissance, the advancements it has made to the world of music, or its contributions to horror films, the Catholic Church is unrivaled in enhancing human creativity.
I find it quite disturbing to omit the Essence of what *CHRISTIAN* Roman Catholicism is about, rather than talking about all the frippery external flamboyance.
Sadly, that is the way it appears, Jesus Christ has been relegated to the back seat with all the showy nonsense.
I watched a TV programme last week on a pilgrimage in Portugal commemorating the appearance of Our Lady at Lourds - and felt very upset/sad at what I witnessed. Candles lit and singing dirge hymns carrying a STATUE of mother Mary above their shoulders with such reverence and worship. IT'S NO WONDER WE ARE LABELLED IDOL WORSHIPPERS. One of the pilgrims (former Roman Catholic) returned home to Ireland as he was unable to stomach this act of idolatry. Gosh! Father Casey, can you not see where the church is headed🤔.
very balanced and informative fr
This is what I had to hear today!
*My Almighty Father in heaven, Forgive us our sins, and we repent of our all mistakes. Please save us and the people who have deep faith and love for you. Have mercy on us. In Jesus Holy Name Amen 🙏🏻*
John 15:15-16 (KJV) 15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. 16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
John 17:1-3 (KJV) 1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
John 17:21-23 (KJV) 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, [art] in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
John 20:31 (KJV) But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
Philippians 1:6 (KJV) Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ:
Philippians 1:29 (KJV) For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
Galatians 1:15-16 (KJV) 15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called [me] by his grace, 16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
Galatians 4:4-7 (KJV) 4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Romans 8:28-30 (KJV) 28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose. 29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be] conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
Romans 11:5-6 (KJV) 5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace. 6 And if by grace, then [is it] no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it be] of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
I think to remember the pope having said (two years ago, or something) that the important thing when Jesus encountered the devil in the desert is that he did not go into dialogue with the devil. So if we're not supposed to go into dialogue with the devil, why do we speak to him (8:57)? If the devil speaks to us and we speak to the devil, I would say that is a dialogue...
I have been seeing many exorcist & exorcism from my childhood right from my own house to outside world even my family, but the only thing is that the person should be willing to leave evil & evil doings and be free his will is very important for that evil spirit to leave/losen the holds over his life the contract he got into is due to the evil life he/she lead, therefore even jesus asked the man do u want to be healed if a person repents and believe in Jesus he will surely set him free, also long prays make no sense unless u carry the authority & presence of god and god gives u the power to set an individual free untill that even the evil knows a man without power can do nothing to him, this is in the gospel too when disciples try to remove unclean spirit from a boy but they don't leave untill jesus commands them and then when they ask jesus why they couldn't do it, He answers u lack in deeper prayer, only by that u can drive such spirits out, long prayers dont make sense untill a person doesn't carry god presence and authority which comes by being holy and staying close to god by praying & doing his will. Have seen this in real life as soon as a demon possessed person comes/bought close to an individual/man of god filled by gods holy spirit the aura or the presence, the demons start manifesting and the person rolls, screams, yells, vomits, walks like spider on fours or crawl like a snake or anyother spirit in which form it manifest etc, cause he cannot stand the spirit of god and has to leave and feels tortured by the presence of holy spirit by the physical man carrying the presence of god, hence only a person with such power and authority given by god himself can do such things by practice and hence only few such priest & pastors are available but evils isn't only limited to such things but also things like disasters, accident, disease and bad incidents its just that common man look at it as a human accident or physical thing but a good exorcist immediately recognises the work of devil as he his lead by the spirit of god.👍
Thank you
Fr Casey,
We need to see you and Fr Patrick react to the Conjuring movies and real life Ed and Lorraine Warren at some point!
God bless!
It's not recommended to watch actual horror movies. From what I've heard, 'The Conjuring' is more of a horror movie. Movies such as 'The Exorcism of Emily Rose' are safer to watch.
I love reading scipture :)
And the 4 Gospel themselves, did not fall short of exorcism chapters and verses.
This is a great video
See the movie "Nefarious".
I am a Catholic. I am aware that a thorough psychological and physicals are necessary. But what are the telltale signs of possession? What is common? I understand some of these to be super strength and speaking in a language the victim never studied. Is there anything else?
Great as ever
I'm going to pump the breaks on your 1st 30 seconds. You specifically give the power to cast out demons to priests. When in fact the power is given to anyone who is a Christian. We had someone possessed show up to one of our men's retreats once. It's not something we had ever experienced before so it caught us off guard. My brothers were able to cast it out of the man in Jesus name. The man that was possessed was completely changed the next day. He was not able to worship with us before and no one noticed but the next day he was worshipping with us And praising God openly instead of ducking out. Praise Jesus!!
ONE GOD forever and ever amen and amen,. Is how you end that prayer.
May I recommend the movie, NEFARIOUS 2023, is from the same writers and producers from UNPLANNED 2019, they claim to be Roman Catholic, but anyways, two wonderful movies that touch two delicate topics, on my opinion, in a proper manner.
During exorcism prayers ,what i need to abstain from,for holiness.thx ..soni❤
i Love your work i'm a friar monk online just like you i look up to your work
I do have some questions so have you read about any unsuccessful or even violent exorcisms??? Like those horror movies that are "based on a true story"?
I'm not a Christian but I went to church when i was about 5-9 then I got to busy to be able to go and I guess stopped being Christian? Idk but my brother's a Christian still well he stopped like me but became one again
I really don't know if I was a Christian or not cuz I didn't even know what was happening it was a church school thing that I went to
Maybe I need help. I was seeing in the past weird entities when I was laying on the bed. About 2 times. One in my dream when I was a little kid, but I somehow fought it and then after kicking it I woke up, and last year (when I was 17) it was not a dream. It was weird, because I was sleeping then I opened my eyes but then a black creature, very skinny and it had a disturbing face. His teeth very sharp and a bright smile, a creepy smile. With red eyes. It stared at me, I was so scared that I tried avoiding eye contact. After I closed my eyes and turned to the other side where I was laying, he was in my mind, it’s weird. That demon was like inside me and then I started moving. I couldn’t control the movement. And it hurt, the movements on my bed where so inhuman that it hurt. After that I went unconscious and I can‘t remember what happened after. The other time I was possessed was 2 weeks ago. I was sleeping and I was in a dream. I was a Little kid, and some perverted old man grabbed me, and then after I tried holding him back from me I woke up. But when I woke up I started screaming. That scream was very weird. It was like a „HHHHUUUUUUAA“ and I sounded weird like a zombie. Also my body moved inhuman. I was bending my back but I was also lifting. I Hope I wasn’t floating. I really hope that I am tripping. The worst case is that I was floating. And now I am very confused.
Oh I forgot to add something very disturbing. When I was having that dream which was 2 weeks ago, I was on a path. And it was not my body. It was like I was a soul, a spirit. And there were strange noises, and a language I never heard. That language was aggressive, quick and silent. And I liked that strange language. I don’t know, now that I remember it, it was a creepy language. But I was tempted to talk to them in the same language. And I was talking with the strange voices in their language. What I did was idk, repeating what they said. I don’t know why I did it, it seemed fun. But I really don’t know why I did it. And then I was moving. It was a path. I don’t know, it was a weird path, it wasn’t 3 dimensional. And then I got to a destination. It was not like I saw it, it felt like a destination. And after that destination I had that aggressive, silent but fast language speaking voices in my head. And it was so dominating that I hated it, I can remember that after hearing them I was scared. And I tried screaming „Jesus“ idk why I did it. I screamed „Jesus“ but the problem is. After I wanted to say it the third time, I went mute. It was weird. I couldn’t speak, it’s like my muscles went numb.
That was what I wanted to include.
I don’t know if it’s all random or that I need an exorcist. I tried following Jesus in the past years but I am so lukewarm, and I was also pagan weeks ago. Now I stopped being pagan, and I am so confused and need help.
Word.
I'm Jewish so this was super interesting since I've never heard any information on what an exorcism is and what it entails :^]
At 7:30 Fr. Casey had a very Fr. Pat moment!
I guess you refer to "the move" 😆
Good to see someone talking about these things, they're rather "unfashionable".
In the Catholic Talk Show they made some statements that left me with some many questions!!! They talked about crystals and the “occult.” Please further explain !! They made a comment about “ghosts” been souls in purgatory?? I thought purgatory was not a believe in the Catholic religion? I am just returning to practicing my religion and with more questions than ever.!!!
Thank you for teaching, Father Casey. ❤ Has there ever been a priest who needs an exorcism? I think I may have met one who needs one, that's why I asked. Thanks.
Unfortunately, the symptoms of various illnesses were and are often confused with possession, leading to stigmatisation of sufferers.
Fr father breaking in the habit Cris 👼😇🙏❤️😀 happy good morning Thursday God bless thank you prayer intention family 🙏🙏🙏 prayer warriors heart love ❤️❤️❤️ Mr Cris Claudio Gomez molina bicol Naga city Philippines filipino 🇵🇭🇵🇭 god bless you mama mary loves you Ave Maria Jesus saint francis of assisi pray for us saint anthony of padua pray for us. Saint padre pio pray for us amen
I am a studying Protestant theologian and I was confused on how the faith of the believer plays into the act of Catholic exorcism. Is the teaching that the priests belief is enough to expel the spirit or does the person who has the spirit have to be Christian or even Catholic for it to work. I feel like I’ve read from some sources that say it won’t work if the person is not a professing Christian but others have written that it doesn’t matter the faith of the person so long as the priests faith is strong enough.
Would love to hear any clarification from you on this idea
Hi! In the meantime, while awaiting Fr Casey's response, may I recommend that you watch videos from Fr Chad Ripperger and Fr Vincent Lampert, they explain in much more detail how it works (their videos tend to be a bit longer)--I hope this helps--God Bless you!
Thanks Fr Casey for another excellent video, God Bless you as well!
@@YM-gi1qm okay cool I’ll check them out
@@bradleycombs2626 Cool! I learned alot from them, as well as from Fr Casey!
It’s all about proper apostolic authority
Non Catholics can get exorcisms, its the apostolic authority of the exorcist that is important. The handing down of authority from Christ to the apostles then to their disciples and so on. It's always through the power of Christ. I'm sure that a faith in God and Christ believed by the oppressed or possessed person can't but be a help.
The Exorcist Files podcast has been really good - look it up and give it a shot
Im from malaysia. We have one friar who have ability to perform exorcist and can detect if a person possess talisman associated with unclean spirit
Hi Father Casey! I have a question - when I got my confirmation, the bishop told us that we were essentially confirming our desire and commitment to taking the Holy Spirit into our body. My question is, since evil cannot exist where the Holy Spirit exists, does that mean that the sacrament of confirmation makes you immune to demonic possession? Thank you!
Yes and no. Yes, if you are devoting yourself to God and still believing that Holy Spirit will guide you everyday, then demonic or evil spirit can not harm you. But it doesn't mean it wouldn't. No, you are not always immune. Even after being baptized or after received sacrament of confirmation, if your behaviour acts in daily life are far from what God's teaching or you keep doing sins, then you're separating away yourself from God's grace and protection. That's the moment when demonic spirit will try to tempt, harm, or even possessing you.
@@stephanusandi9098 it is important to note that in extremely rare cases, God will allow someone to be possessed even if they are living a holy life. Again, it’s important to note this is very rare.
@@ahapka yes, it is also possible. In Bible, we know Job is faithfully to God. But the devil is allowed by God to tempt and give suffering to Job and his family.
And also Padre Pio sometimes had a vision of the devil, whom tried to pretend as holy person.
I wanna see your reaction about Maledicto another netflix exorcism movie.
