I REALLY liked this interview. I have been very interested in the topic of spiritual warfare, and love Fr. Ripperger, Fr. Vincent Lampert, Msr. Rosetti, and Jesse Romero. Fr. John brings something to the table, so to speak here, that is lovely and useful
I wonder how he feels since the Catholic pope claimed hell doesn't exist neither does purgatory. Smh... I was Catholic growing up, looking into the treaty they had with the Nazis and the Vatican being the third arm of the three city states Learn Quantum grammar if u want 'deliverance' Evil seems to be attracted to the holy vs sinful
@@dominicdangelo4801 this isn’t the first bad pope and likely will not be the last, yet the Spotless Bride of Christ remains. Extra Ecclesiam nulla salus.
Wow, this is great. I know Fr. John personally. He was my Chaplin when I was locked up. He is a wonderful priest. Every time I went to confession with him, I experienced God's grace. I would feel conviction and sorrow for my sins and I would cry. He is a special priest.
Matthew 7:22 - "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!"
I'm not Catholic, I attended Methodist and Baptist churches until I was 19. I do not currently attend any church but I think God put this in my feed. I thank you for this message.
"Ordinary catholic families cannot survive.They must be extraordinary catholic families. They must be what I do not hesitate to call 'heroic' catholic families.Ordinary catholic families are no match for the devil as he uses media of communication to secularize and desacralize modern society.No less than ordinary individual catholics can survive,so ordinary catholic families cannot survive.They have no choice. They must either be holy- which means sanctified - or they will disappeared". Fr John Hardon S.J Many Catholics easily stray away from the faith that they received. What are the reasons for their falling into complacency, becoming indifferent and even hostile towards Christ and the Christian Faith? The fault with many Catholics is that they think baptism is a graduation from having acquired knowledge and understanding of their faith. After completing their catechism classes or RCIA journey, they no longer seek out opportunities to continue growing their faith, both doctrinally and spiritually. Their only occasion to grow in faith is the one-hour Mass that they attend every Sunday. This is hardly enough to sustain the life of a Catholic. Those who do not grow in their faith are already losing their faith. There is no neutrality. How, then, can we grow in our faith? Firstly, we need to deepen our intimacy with God through Christ. In Christ, we come to know and love the Father. Secondly, we must be rooted in the Word of God. We cannot grow in our faith without deepening our love and appreciation for the Word of God through bible study and most of all, a prayerful reading and sharing of the Word of God. Thirdly, we must seek the support of the Christian community. A Catholic without the support of his fellow Catholics will eventually fall out from the faith, especially when he undergoes the trials and challenges of life, the influence of secularism, and the materialistic, individualistic and atheistic views of the world. Fourthly, to grow our faith, we need to evangelise and be a witness to Christ. We evangelise ourselves by evangelising others. By sharing our faith with others, we strengthen our own faith. By teaching our faith to others, we grow in understanding and clarity in what we believe in. Finally, growing in faith is to grow in our Christian life. This is the most effective form of witnessing. It means that those of us who are baptised must live a life of holiness and purity, free from sin and a bad conscience. A life of holiness and charity are the fruits of a strong spiritual life and a life of hope founded in the promises of God. If the Catholic Church is accused of being satanic, that is no more than its Founder, Jesus Christ, was accused of. When our Lord was on earth, he had the same problem. He was driving demons out, and some said he was doing this by the power of the devil. How did Jesus respond? He said, “How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand; that is the end of him” (Mk 3:23-26). The Catholic Church drives out the devil, too. This practice is called exorcism. No one can deny that the Catholic Church has been doing exorcisms on people and driving out Satan for nearly two millennia. Therefore, we must reason like Jesus: If the Catholic Church were from the devil, it could not drive the devil out. We shouldn’t be surprised when such charges are made against the Catholic Church. Jesus told us, “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master; it is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign those of his household” (Mt 10:24-25). Images and Statues, Relics & Holy Water I. Images and Statues Deut. 4:15 - from this verse, Protestants say that since we saw “no form” of the Lord, we should not make graven images of Him. Deut. 4:16 - of course, in early history Israel was forbidden to make images of God because God didn’t yet reveal himself visibly “in the form of any figure.” Deut. 4:17-19 - hence, had the Israelites depicted God not yet revealed, they might be tempted to worship Him in the form of a beast, bird, reptile or fish, which was a common error of the times. Exodus 3:2-3; Dan 7:9; Matt. 3:16; Mark 1:10; Luke 3:22; John 1:32; Acts 2:3- later on, however, we see that God did reveal himself in visible form (as a dove, fire, etc). Deut. 5:8 - God’s commandment “thou shall not make a graven image” is entirely connected to the worship of false gods. God does not prohibit images to be used in worship, but He prohibits the images themselves to be worshiped. Exodus 25:18-22; 26:1,31 - for example, God commands the making of the image of a golden cherubim. This heavenly image, of course, is not worshiped by the Israelites. Instead, the image disposes their minds to the supernatural and draws them to God. Num. 21:8-9 - God also commands the making of the bronze serpent. The image of the bronze serpent is not an idol to be worshiped, but an article that lifts the mind to the supernatural. I Kings 6:23-36; 7:27-39; 8:6-67 - Solomon’s temple contains statues of cherubim and images of cherubim, oxen and lions. God did not condemn these images that were used in worship. 2 Kings 18:4 - it was only when the people began to worship the statue did they incur God’s wrath, and the king destroyed it. The command prohibiting the use of graven images deals exclusively with the false worship of those images. 1 Chron. 28:18-19 - David gives Solomon the plan for the altar made of refined gold with a golden cherubim images. These images were used in the Jews’ most solemn place of worship. 2 Chron. 3:7-14 - the house was lined with gold with elaborate cherubim carved in wood and overlaid with gold. Ezek. 41:15 - Ezekiel describes graven images in the temple consisting of carved likenesses of cherubim. These are similar to the images of the angels and saints in many Catholic churches. Col. 1:15 - the only image of God that Catholics worship is Jesus Christ, who is the “image” (Greek “eikon”) of the invisible God. II. Relics Mark 15:43; John 19:38 - Joseph of Arimathea sought Christ’s dead body instead of leaving it with the Romans. Joseph gave veneration to our Lord’s body. Mark 16:1; Luke 24:1 - the women came to further anoint Christ’s body even though it had been sealed in the tomb. John 19:39 - Nicodemus donated over one hundred pounds of spices to wrap in Jesus’ grave clothes. This is also veneration of our Lord’s body. Matt. 9:21; Mark 5:28 - the woman with the hemorrhage just sought the hem of Christ’s cloak and was cured. This shows that God uses physical things to effect the supernatural. Acts 19:11-12 - Paul’s handkerchiefs healed the sick and those with unclean spirits. This is another example of physical things effecting physical and spiritual cures. Acts 5:15 - Peter’s shadow healed the sick. This proves that relics of the saints have supernatural healing power, and this belief has been a part of Catholic tradition for 2,000 years. Rev. 6:9 - the souls of the martyrs are seen beneath the heavenly altar. Their bones are often placed beneath altars in Catholic churches around the world. 2 Kings 13:21 - Elisha’s bones bring a man back to life. The saints’ bones are often kept beneath the altars of Catholic churches and have brought about supernatural cures throughout the Christian age. Rom. 13:7; Phil. 2:25-29; Heb. 3:3; 1 Pet. 2:7 - we are taught to honor the people of God and in 1 Cor. 4:16-17; 1 Cor. 11:1-2; Phil. 3:17; 1 Thess. 1:6; 2 Thess. 3:7; Heb. 6:12; Heb. 13:7; James 5:10-11 - we are reminded to imitate them. Keeping relics of the saints serves both to honor and imitate their heroic faith in Christ (just as keeping articles of deceased loved ones helps us honor and imitate them). III. Holy Water Ex. 29:4; Lev. 8:6 - Aaron and his sons were washed in holy water in their consecration to the priesthood. Thus, we see the use of holy water during the beginning of salvation history. Ex. 30:18-19 - the Lord requires Aaron and his sons to wash their hands and feet in holy water before they offered sacrifices to Him. The Church uses holy water for various purposes, and holy water fonts are generally located at the entrance of Catholic churches to be used before the sacrifice of Christ is offered to the Father. Num. 5:17 - here again, the priest uses holy water. God uses natural matter to convey the supernatural, just as God who is Spirit became flesh in Christ Jesus. Num. 8:7 - the Lord says to “sprinkle them with the water of remission.” The Lord uses water, a physical property, to convey His supernatural property of grace. 1 Kings 7:38-39 - in King Solomon’s temple, there were ten large basins of holy water. Holy water has always been used in the context of worship. John 9:6-7 - Jesus uses clay and spittle to heal the blind man’s eyes, and ordered him to wash in the pool of Siloam to effect the cure. Jesus did not need to use spittle, clay and water, but He does to demonstrate that God uses the material things He created to give graces and heal us. John 13:4-10 - the Lord uses water to wash the apostles’ feet to prepare them for their sacramental priesthood. John 19:34 - water and blood flowed from Jesus’ pierced side on the Cross. The Church uses holy water as a symbol of our Lord’s life giving water that flowed from His sacred Heart, and as the property which brings about the power of Jesus Christ Himself, in baptism, the Eucharist, and other sacred rites of the Church.
God has nothing to do with UA-cam algorithms, blame it on UA-cam....I was brought up by a devil worshipping sect and i don't blame the devil on a UA-cam algorithm....Give your head a shake....
The part when he mentions the demon saying "hate can turn into a curse" gave me goosebumps. We really need to watch our hearts the lead to our souls and that is what they want. May peace be with all of you.
@@jernisharichard5032 They're not not God nor are they Jesus Christ... They're guides, who help anchor you to your faith, you don't need to speak to God through a priest, but they're there to counsel us in our times of doubt or need...
@jernisharichard5032 No, they're "not God nor Jesus Christ" no more than your protestant reverend or the pastor of your favorite snake-handling pentecostal church. Your 'point' here is divisive and completely lacks any sound reasoning, logic, any necessity whatsoever.. Yet here we are. 🙄😒
Working as psych nurse l realized a lot of the ailments had to do with childhood sexual abuse or trauma 🥺🥺like reading the charts gave me PTSD.

Been struggling internally, spiritually, depressed, angry these past few months. Recently been watching tarot reading videos, subconsciously maybe it's where i would found all the answer. All of a sudden i found this video on my feed.I think God showed me this for a reason. I think God is trying to talk to me through this video. Thank you. ❤🙏
@@aratiphilipose6099 If you want to know the truth what God said you must do to get to heaven, this is a great site ,it goes over the History of what the Catholic Church and others belive.

I have been away from the church for a long long time. I feel a tug at my heart to go back. This priest seems to really know his stuff. Thanks for posting! I'm glad I found this!
God knows we are prey for demons unless we cling to Him. That is why He gave us His Church, the sacraments, to protect us. We must utilise them with complete trust in God.
Follow that tug ❤I came back in 2017 and I went to confession and my life completely changed. I have completely fallen in love with my Catholic faith and it’s beauty and the healing of my wounds has truly happened for the first time in my life. The blessed mother guided me back to the church. Stay close to her and the rosary and go to confession and the Eucharist. I will be praying for you.
As a practicing Muslim, I have deep respect for my catholic friends. I am very much in tune with the Christian spirituality and wish we all work together to defeat devils in ourselves.
@@patof72clune51 no, Jesus is a creation, albeit one of the most lofty and dearest creation of God. And the God we believe in is the same Single, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient God that all Abrahamic faiths believe in.
@@babbar123 Read your Quran & hadiths ....your Muslim ( demon ) god thinks the Trinity is Father, Son & Mary.... If your Muslim ( demon ) god was THE TRUE GOD, he would know all things. So either 1) your ( demon ) god lied to moo ham mad 2) moo ham mad heard about this small false gnostic group in arabia that existed & thought Mary was part of the Trinity. Either way Christians know Mary is human & not a God. So your Quran & hadiths saying Christians thought so is false. Just one of hundreds of examples that Islam is false as your god was/ is a demon & moo ham mad a false prophet ( died of poison / having his aorta cut off ).
I am a Christian, but not Catholic. This interview means a lot. I think we are going into some bad times, but I also am slowly seeing more people turn towards God then I used to.
Likewise. I am Episcopalian. I wish that my Church would involve themselves with understanding the demonic reality & Practicing exorcism. I am trying to learn on my own. I DO believe, & it IS my experience that anyone--even a non-believer--can cast out evil in the Holy Name of Jesus. Jesus, Himself, *_WILL_* INTERVENE & CAST OUT DEMONS. Whether the person affected by the demons, or doing the casting out is a Christian. But,of course, one who has made the Sacred Covenant of Baptism with Jesus, & walks the Path of Discipleship of have more power & ability. But, Jesus is the Elder Brother & Savior of ALL OF US, & WILL HELP ALL OF US--whether we understand & appreciate Him, or not. Jesus is PURE Love & Compassion . He will help ALL OF US, REGARDLESS. I have never tried this on a practicing satanist, who willingly, purposely comports with evil. I have only done it with people who WANT to be released, or who have no understanding to even KNOW that it is the demonic that is their problem. I am _very clear_ that the reality of demons is an huge factor in what goes on in our lives & this world. It may not be full-on possession, but there is constant, regular stream of demonic obsession & oppression. And, satanism & the dark occult is woven into EVERYTHING & getting WORSE. (I have been studying satanism-- *_NOT TO PRACTICE, BUT TO KNOW MINE ENEMY_* -- & now that I know what to look for, I can see it EVERYWHERE. 💔 It horrifies me & breaks my heart. And, I can see how SO MUCH of what is happening is the unfolding of satanist agendae. Now that I am understanding more about satanism, it is very clear to me in ways that it never was. New Age stuff, & the normalization of occult practices & witchcraft, in particular, ESPECIALLY aimed at & amongst *_CHILDREN_* 💔 It scares me, & sickens me, & breaks my heart.💔) And, I think that we all need to be aware of this (in a grounded, calm, non-hysterical, not-freaked-out way), & act against it. We are in the end times, & the Bible says that it will be "as it was in the days of Noah" , & that the gates of hell will be opened & the residents loosed upon the Earth, & the Nephilim will be loosed as well. I, frankly, do not believe that we can solve the problems of this world WITHOUT recognizing this & taking ACTION against it. We are, *_in stark REALITY,_* engaged in _Spiritual warfare._
I am also not Catholic, however I believe that many Catholics will be saved because they repent their sins to Christ Jesus and Believe in their heart. I knew an older woman years ago (she likely is with the Lord now) that taught me a lot and she went to many churches in the area because she said the only truth that was 100% correct is the Bible. Man corrupts she said, and man corrupts scripture so we must pray and study. At the end of the day though I believe that you must believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God and died for us as our savior and that you need to repent of your sins to Jesus. I do not believe that any man can forgive your sins, only Jesus as our intercessor before God the Father. Jesus truly God and truly Man came to save you as well. Repent of your sins and trust in him.
Woah, this was the most moving interview that I have ever heard/ seen. I struggle with a lot of stuff and turned away from the church for over 12 years now & this video is exactly what brought me back to it. Thank you, thank you so much !
So interesting! My dad was a priest in Fatima, Portugal. He was born in a little village about 20 minutes from Fatima and was the only brother (6), that joined the Seminary at age 10. He got a dispensation in 1968 to marry my mom. He had to promise to teach the rest of his life. He taught at the University level from that point forward. He and my mom were married for 53 years. He was my best friend and I miss him every day ❤
I know right? You can see holiness and grace and love for the sick and suffering almost living like a hostage to the devil who the bravest and most fervent believers. Inspiring and courageous. I wish our church leaders and bishops grow spines and speak out for pro life. It’s almost a part of the ceremony when you become elevated to bishop or cardinal in our church by removing their back bone.
Of course tv is in service of the fallen, it’s run 💯by the children of disobedience.. “I was engaged in something much more unpleasant than espionage. I was engaged in ideological subversion, which is seldom explained to people by your media, because the media is part of that process.” “….The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures [meaning] psychological warfare… What it basically means is to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that, despite the abundance of information, no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interests of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.” -Y.Bezmenov “I don’t care if Americans think we’re running the news media, Hollywood, Wall Street or the government. I just care that we get to keep running them.” -Joel Stein, "Who runs Hollywood? C'mon" "The TV & movie industries are carefully designed to appeal to the sensuous emotions, never to the logical thinking mind. Because of this, the people are programmed to respond according to OUR dictates, not according to reason." -H. Rosenthal/From ‘Hidden Empire’
I’m a therapist and I agree. I pray for all children daily that if they’re being abused or neglected, abandoned, lost a parent that the demonic not enter their trauma.
This priest has the most amazing personality, such an even, calming, truly faithful, confident, happy disposition, I could listen to him for hours, and I'm not Catholic. Thank you so much for posting this interview with this happy, Godly warrior!
This guy. This video needs to go everywhere. I was raised Catholic, but I never understood what that meant until I saw this. However, this is relevant no matter what religion, or no religion at all. This is gold.
I am not Catholic (father claimed to be Baptist but actually only had faith in himself, mother Lutheran) but was incredibly drawn to watch this video. It left me with a sense of peace. Thank you for sharing it. ❤
I love that prayer, it saved my life the whole prayer if anyone needs it is: In the beginning there was the word, and the word is God And nothing but nothing came into existence but through him. And what came into existence through him was the Light The light that shines in man/woman The light that shines in the darkness and the darkness can Never overpower it.
You guys did a good job interviewing Father John. You built a rapport, asked him some good questions, and let him talk. This is difficult subject matter. I've watched this (3) times now and everything Father John says lines up with what researchers (Laura Van Tyne) and other demonologists and demon-seers (June Lundgren) have said. They are all looking at the subject matter from slighty different angles, but the information lines up and correlates with eachother . He's very sharp and is a fantastic narrator. I love listening to his anecdotes. I'm not trying to nutswing, but you guys should bring him back. This is one of the best videos I've seen on the subject anywhere. 👍👍
@Michael Mathieu: Laura Van Tyne is a Medium and is involved with the demonic. The Bible warns us to have nothing to do with Mediums for it is an abomination to the Lord. They are literally in different kingdoms. Fr is a Priest and is guided by the Holy Spirit and is under the Authority of Jesus Christ who is God. Laura Van Tyne is being guided by demons.
We have some Lourdes holy water for about 20 years in the house. I just sprinkled some around the house and drank a tiny little bit. I am returning to the faith after decades away lost in sin. I was going to go to confession this coming week. I’m now going to make sure I do a very thorough examination before I go.
That first examination afters years and years is HARD. Made my first confession at 36. But since then I keep a "running" tally so to speak and it get easier each week and has given time to work on other spiritual projects.
Man can not forgive you of any sin only THE SOVEREIGN CREATOR can. So, confess your sins to HIM and you will receive the REAL forgiveness that will keep you out of HELL. CONFESSION IS ONLY 1 of the false doctrines that is Man-Made. Don't forget CONFESSION to GOD + REPENTANCE= FORGIVENESS
@@scothammond5736 Exactly! And in my experience, it's a REAL deterrent to sin--I personally don't want to go to Confession and have to say something super embarassing! The element of accountability is through the roof!
@@YM-gi1qm how can you say this about embarrassing yourself, you are not because if you are following the Catholic way, you are confessing to God not the man behind the curtain, he doesn't count like you are saying, you need never be embarrassed at all.
This came up ...looked interesting so listened and was hooked. As a " non believer" and certainly no Catholic the Father here has a manner and warmth that is captivating and trustworthy. He is exactly how I would expect a benevolent priest to be. Made my day🙂Thanks for posting👍
My Uncle was a Franciscan Priest. And he was a fantastic historian. He was much loved by his siblings, all of his nieces and nephews many friends, and clergy. I loved him dearly. He was my father's oldest sibling.
@@skateorbri I what you're speaking is the "truth," can you expound on it? Creating malice and confusion is not what a person in a state of grace would do.
@@jewelboxballerina Usually a priest is tapped by the bishop to be an exorcist. Even if they are reluctant, they have to obey the bishop. If a priest has a fascination or particular interest in the demonic, that is a red flag. That being said, this priest seems solid…but maybe a bit eccentric.
@@jewelboxballerina you’re not supposed to seek out becoming an exorcist. You aren’t supposed to be curious about demons or satan or anything to do with the occult. Curiousity is not a virtue.
I’m Eastern Orthodox and therapist as well. I only once experienced something out of ordinary, a friend of a friend who came to me to talk about her trauma because she wanted to know what modality will work best for her. She end up being at my house for four hours, groan, moan it sounded like an animal noise and then she looked at me and asked “Aren’t you afraid of me?” I said no. I know Psalm 90 by heart and I couldn’t remember even a first word. She said that she is tired lay down, while she was on my sofa I searched psalm 90 on my phone and read it continuously. When she left I felt off emotionally, physically and spiritually. I re-blessed my house and with holy myrth put crosses on the wall. It took me five days to recover and I had a communion. I prepared well for communion with fasting, praying for this person, spent days in prayers and silence. Only after communion I felt relieved.
Scary! Especially if u r by yourself w this crazy person! One of my patients locked all the doors so I wouldn't leave. Fortunately, I am tall & husky and when he tried to attack me, I threw him against a sofa; so he began to cry like a baby. I called the police and they took him to ER. But because they didn't realize he was having a crisis, he committed suicide a couple days later along w his dog. It was so sad ni one cared about his mental status improving b4 sending him home.
@@vanessaweemsss5740 Exactly right! I had said you really do have to be careful who you let into your home. A friend of a friend doesn't mean anything nowadays. I'm glad that nothing happened & it really sounds like it was very intense there for a while. So scary right?!
I’m also Eastern Orthodox. My spiritual father has told me that the most powerful prayer is this ‘Lord, Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.’ He told me that it burns demons. I hope you never experience anything like that again but know that this prayer will help you.
You asked simple, direct, and open questions - and you gave Father John plenty of respect and room to express the full breadth of his experience and wisdom. This was gold. New Sub right here.
Perhaps the reason exorcism was hidden in the attic is because the Vatican leaders wanted it so. I am so happy for this revival. I have a degree in psychology and have seen that the two are different. In fact I would say that the world opulation has more of a spiritual problem than a psychological one. God bless.
Every bishop is an exorcist, and bishop can nominate as many exorcists as he wants. Here is the problem, bishops stopped fight against evil spirits and stopped nominating exorcists. That's why church is failing because of that.
@@mariobros7205 As a Protestant missionary, I used to do exorcism to Muslims, Buddhists, Africans......, and baptised them with the Holy Spirit , the Muslims always had visions of the Christ. When I went to the traditional Latin catechism, I asked the priest if he could do the exorcism when a case was presented. He said the case should be examined, it took time. Because of sexual perversion, the majority of the young are possessed. The Satan can’t defeat us, we fail because we don’t believe in the power of the Holy Spirit.
This interview answered a situation that was brought to light a few years ago, regarding a gentleman discovering a small box at the Masonic Lodge with photos of my Mother’s parents and myself. This has been very troubling for me, not knowing why, other than to KNOW that it wasn’t for good reasons. As a teenager, after months of indoctrination to enter the Rainbows, I had decided not to follow through. The night before initiation, when the candidates were taken into the ceremonial room of the lodge and given a run through. It was then that I was told that I would have to swear allegiance to ancient false gods. This didn’t sit well with me, having accepted Jesus Christ into my heart as my Lord and Savior. The podcast had been coming up on my feed late at night, when I certainly did not want to engage in the spiritual warfare listening to would undoubtedly bring... I can not thank you enough for this informative interview. I am now armed with the knowledge that I have been seeking for several years. With diligence, the Grace of God and the Sacred Blood of Jesus, I will break the generational curses placed upon my family. Godspeed 🙏🏻.
Excellent? Interviewers are all over the map with their questions. They're interviewing an exorcist, and so you think they would ask: how does the exorcist prepare for an exorcism? What are effective tools in an exorcism? Failed to ask the priest basic questions about his exorcism experiences. Ones that went well. Ones that didn't. How did the priest become a more proficient exorcist? Does he use Latin? Agreed: Father John, interesting and smart. The interviewers: far from skilled in the art of conducting an interview. Did they prepare for this interview? Or just show up and start asking random questions?
@@douglasfaulkner2586 Hey Doug! Thanks for the feedback. Of course having a conversation vs a strict Q&A format can sometimes lead to missed questions/opportunities. We strive to do better with each interview we do and are thankful for constructive criticism. That being said, and no offense here, sometimes questions one may find interesting or important, we do not. Or it may be the case we felt they were answered. Fr. John was quite thorough (from his training to numerous case examples). He also had a story he could not share publicly regarding an exorcism that didn't go well. We respect those wishes, and he had freedom to share what he was comfortable with. It sounds like you're seeking more of a step-by-step guide to an exorcist's preparation, and what a priest does during such an event, which this episode was not about. The theme was what families/individuals could do if confronted with such a situation. While the convo entails many other details, we weren't locked onto your above line of questioning, obviously. If you're interested in more minute details of exorcist preparation and/or the rite itself, you may try Googling the many other exorcist interviews online, or reading a book of such details (there are several).
Guys, the videos, cameras and internet can be manipulated by evil too. I am really happy that this is here for us to open our eyes. Thank you father John for what you do and for this detail video!
I would argue the internet is the main cause of evil today. Jesus was pretty clear that the two fastest ways to find yourself in Hell are 1) Bearing False Witness, IE lying and 2) Lusting. It can be argued that the internet has sent both of the things into the stratosphere as far as the average person.
Wow. The priest in this video is such a gift to everyone. I am so glad this video came into my play list. His voice caught me first and I had to stop and listen. I will be watching and listening to this again. I will also share this with people I Love. Thank you so very much. To know there really are people of Faith like him with us today.
I remember an interview with a guy who interviewed serial killers. He said all serial killers had a distinct smell. He said each one had a different smell,and he didn't know if it had always been, or of they got that way by killing people. Interesting that father would say something similar.
Funny how when ppl who have never experienced something of the subject themselves, they doubt that it exists. Just because youve never experienced something, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Sometimes it comes off as a smell, a feeling, a sense, even a visual. But I believe these things are true, maybe different for individuals, but true in different ways. I can smell when someone close to me is going to die, to be honest with you it reminds me of embalming fluids. Depending on how strong it is, will determine how close to me they are. I really don't like it because I'm constantly wondering who it's going to be. But who knows, that's just what I think.
@@carolinetalksdifferent2946 I watched my father die, slowly and in the last 2 weeks he had a smell, it is distinctive, and I will never forget it, it is of decay as the body shuts down the lack of oxygen allows more carbon dioxide to be emitted, people say you can smell death, and you can, but not same as people who are demonically oppressed they emit a smell of sulphur, and I do believe some spiritually gifted people esp empaths can detect it.
Superb dialogue guys and this priest has a way of hitting his message hard in ways we can relate to. Having experienced evil first hand many times in my life I can totally relate to his words. Don't under estimate just how widespread demonic oppression and influence are. The danger about it is that hides its motives and effects really well. The only way to avoid or fight it in your own personal life is to attend the sacraments, especially confession, regularly and pray for the grace of humility. Without humility cannot have wisdom. It is a catylist for evil for pride to be exercised. It leads to anger, violence, temptation, temper, bad choices and many other sins. With pride we fail to recognise our own failings and forget to pray. Confession, the Eucharist and daily prayer is essential. Place a blessed St Benedicts medal in each corner of your home, wear a miraculous medal and be selective about what you invite into your home especially where the tv is concerned and computers and ipads etc. You will be attacked in various ways including your health. Pray and persevere and you'll beat it all. Perseverence of some issues may relate to sins carried yet forgotten...pray hard.0 Ave Maria
Matthew 7:22 - Applies to Catholicism , which leads people astray. "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!"
I’ve read (and seen) The Rite, both Blatty Exorcists, two of Fr. Amorth’s books, seen a slew of interviews with Fathers Ripperger and Lampert and this is by far, the most enthralling account from a real priest. Powerful!
This is a good interview. The interviewers let the priest talk and not cutting him short and asking nonsense questions and I really appreciate it a lot. Good luck for more.
Same. I'm anti organized religion I have a feeling I'd listen to ANYTHING THIS MAN SAYS!! I WOULD LOVE to sit down and speak with him. With all that's happening in this world right now and how bad things are I could def use some spiritual guidance
@@savannahmadden4958 Do contact him God is always waiting for us, we do not know when Is our last day here on earth to be call unto His presence Savannah. We need to be ready.
I love listening to Father John speak , something about his voice calms me and I listen intently. I listen on a Bluetooth speaker at work and so many people ask me what and who i am listening to. I gladly share with them.
Such a great interview and well articulated / explained. I’m not Catholic (I’m of Christian Orthodox Faith) and I fully concur with everything discussed. Thank you for bringing this important subject to the attention of the world - people need to be more aware! God bless all and stay close to Jesus Christ. ✝️🙏🏻
Fr. John has that gift of being able to explain spiritual matters in plain terms. I really enjoyed this video. Some questions were answered and I felt the truth of those answers. Thank you, Fr. John.
My ex-husband dated a woman for two years, whom I believe is possessed/demonic. She told my son I invite the devil into my home because I'm Catholic. She and my ex created an environment for me that was horrific. My poor son was in the middle. I tried to protect him as much as I was able. I did have a premonition prior to this woman coming into our lives. The message I received was "call on Me (Jesus)." I sure did. I could feel this woman's negative energy in my home. I've never experienced. I turned to my Catholic faith. During this time, I went to a Catholic store to find a crucifix. I came across one that really spoke to me. I had never seen a St. Benedict crucifix up close. I went to pay for my item and the clerk told me I had chosen a special crucifix. I later learned this was a crucifix used in exorcisms. I hung it above my front door and honestly, I felt very protected.
Hi sister. my conversion was throug a Saint Benedict medal too. I have found this precious medal when i was a child. I grew up with an gnostic view of life and death. Later i have found some books of Father Gabriele Amorth (an exorcist) and he explain about the power of this medal against evil. This was the begnin of my convertion. God bless you, and our mother Mary will interced for us. Saint Benedict pray for us.
@@sanbenedettodinorcia9724 Jesus Christ is our only intercessor to God. We don't need no one else to intercede on our behalf. All power and authority has been given to Jesus, the Bible clearly tells us that. Do not be fooled, no medallion in the world can save us from anything; that's why we are commanded by God *not to create any graven images.* God clearly commands us not to: make, worship, or pray to any images of Heaven, or earth. May I ask, within the Holy Bible, where does it say that Catholic image's get a free pass by God to break these commandments? Jesus Christ delivered you, not an angel, and certainly not a piece of metal... Lastly, please don't take my words to you to mean that I'm personally attacking you, because that's not where my heart, or intention is. I'm just trying to open your eyes to the truth, and the truth is the word of God, a.k.a. the Holy Bible...
@jesusislife9259 : Thank you for stating that truth. Also, the Lord Jesus Christ came not to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it Obediance to the Law is critical. Observe the Sabbath and keep it Holy (Saturday being the 7th day if the week). Repent of sin and call on Christ for forgiveness. Pray and converse with him only. When Jesus began his ministry, he instructed His apostles to announce the Good News of the Kingdom, cast out demons and heal in His name. Christians (not catholics) have been given this authority as His disciples to cast out demons, but most in the church appear to be too afraid of dealing with this reality. Everything anyone needs to know is in the Bible. The Lord Jesus is the Shepard of the sheep. The enemy of God and man is a real one. The battle has already been won, but we must continue to fight until the Lord returns... 4/02/23
Father John is such a kind, loving, knowledgeable and most of all, HUMBLE man!!!! I learned sooooo much and am making a general confession very soon to confess a ton of sins I have committed over the last 75 years! Thank you so very much for this truly wonderful presentation. May God bless all of you abundantly!
My father worked at a prison for the criminally insane up to the late 90s. He had one prisoner on the ward he ran that he was convinced was possessed. My father was not religious at this time. One of things he mentioned was the smell the man would put off when he went into his catatonic state.
@@aura1298 Yes. To the word, that’s how he described it. They gave him showers. Both regular and with chemical agents. Ran his blood etc and could never make the smell go away until he came out of his catatonic state.
Really enjoyed this interview. For all the problems which every institution has the Catholic Church was the first Christian church on the planet technically and there’s some thing about good Catholic priests - they seem like scholars and incredibly educated in the deep roots of Christian tradition. When I hear somebody like an evangelical preacher - they don’t generally give me a sense of peace like this priest does. This is probably why high-level masons take an anti-Catholic pledge. If this original church goes away Christianity just gets diluted into a variety of different things.
Catholics are the oldest and the original church. They have tradition(books from apostoles and saints) and scripture(Bible, the main thing from Jesus and Jews), modern Protestants only have scripture thats why they are not as appealing. To have appeal the church has to have culture not only borders commanded by God. If your group is not uniqe in any way why just not surrender and become a part of the confused grey mix that America is today?
Good priests are definitely a rock. Thank you for appreciating what's good about the Catholic Church and the richness of it. I came back this past year as an adult and am astounded to learn about the heritage and the really deep spiritual and theological answers that we weren't taught those kids and that is sadly not taught to the adult laity so much these days either. When it comes to problems that the church has developed in the past almost 100 years, one thing that a lot of people don't realize is that the church was deliberately infiltrated by Communists and radicals and the orientation of men who were going to cause the sex scandals in previous decades, which was done on the order of the Kremlin from the 1930s through the 50's until certain things became a self perpetuating culture in the seminaries. It was Satan's greatest assault on the Church. When you think about it, what Church is the most attacked and criticized? The one Satan hates the most.
The devil hates the Catholic Church because it is the Church which Christ Himself instituted. He will try everything to break it up and the clergy is attacked all the time. Jesus promised us « .......the gates of hell will NEVER prevail over it ( HIS church) . «
I'm a convert to Catholicism. The power of holy water in my experience has been amazing ! Spraying it in every room and all the doors had great results. My night terrors stopped and the fear I felt in my house. And I didn't stop there, I hung a crucifix in the rooms after the rooms were blessed. I really can't explain it ... But it works ! ...The people I went to the protestant church with are so missing out ! ...✝️
Where do you get holy water? Can a Baptist walk in and just get a bottle full? I’d love to spray my home down it’s full of evil I know I feel it everyday . I’ve heard things seen thing such as lights coming on and going off by themselves. I would hear my son calling my name I’d go to him and he be like what? I’d go didn’t u just call me he would say no mom I didn’t. It sounded just like him. I’ve actually felt something in my bed even people staying with me said same thing . So I knew I was t going crazy. I really need some.
@@angelanetherton8240 you can buy holy water at any Christian bookstore here in Fla. You can get any religious articles there.edit: I am not catholic so I don’t know if there is a specific one that they have to use. I just know that most people and other churches get it from a religious bookstore.
@@angelanetherton8240 Angela, Its really too bad you and your family are suffering through this. I know from personal experience how terrifying this is. I spent years being terrified of this very kind of thing your discribing ! Yes, ...you can as a Baptist get holy water. Go to any Catholic church and ask them. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to give you some don't be afraid to ask. As Catholics this is what we're here to do ! While your there ask the priest to pray for you . Their prayers are powerful and will provide you with peace and wisdom while your going through this battle. If you continue to have these problems call the priest to come and bless your house. Again, they're more than happy to help people struggling through these very things. Whatever you do, "DON'T," and I mean "DON'T" try and have a seiance or use a quoija board ! These entities are taunting you and your family to give them an open door so to speak to let them into your lives.( As christians we don't have to ! !) If you use those things you'll open doors you wont be able to close. I can tell you that you can, through the Lords and the Catholic churches help get beyond this thing. I'm living proof ! Msg me if you need help..... GOD BLESS ! ...👍🫂🙏✝️
@@angelanetherton8240 P.S. Angela , Iv never heard of a Christian bookstore carrying Holy Water. It's not my recommendation for someone to go anywhere for it but a Catholic Church. Thats why people of all faiths go to a CATHOLIC church to get these holy things. They're blessed by a Catholic priest for this particular issue. And they won't charge you a thing. They'll pray for you and your family as well . And that you just can't buy ! ...🤷👍✝️
Funny thing. 2 years ago we had a guy in inspection who pen whipped parts, sabotaged other people's work, caused all kinds of trouble. Late one night I took holy water to the inspection bay. He got even more riled up and was no longer working for us shortly there after. So what he was saying about throwing holy water... lived it already.
There was a “crazy” guy who lived beneath me in Manhattan. He’d get ideas that certain people in the building were placing curses on him and he’d pound on your door, stick notes under your door daring you to come out and “fight him like a man” in the street. Other times, he’d be very pleasant and mannerly. I knew he was from Brazil and worked as a drummer in different clubs. One day my next door neighbor told me he’d spent over an hour kicking the wall next to my door while I’d been at work. I found his note challenging me to fight. Now, he was a large man, muscular, maybe 25ish. I’m female, was in my late 40’s, on the petite size. He knew what I looked like, so coming out to fight him like a man was ridiculous. Maybe I was crazy, but I went to his door with the note, and decided to confront him. He’d really messed up the wall and I didn’t want to be blamed for the damage. He replied that he as sorry, but he had not kicked anyone’s wall and hadn’t written the note. He seemed all mild-mannered, very polite, but when he opened his door to slip back inside, I saw he had on the wall a gruesome mask of a goat with its tongue out and on the telephone stand beneath it, a statue of a stooped over man. It creeped me out. Later that night after he left for work, I slid a Miraculous Medal, a St. Benedict Medal, both blessed, under the door jamb. I also sprinkled Holy Water on his door, prayed a decade of the Rosary and Prayer to St. Michael before returning to my apartment. A week later from that Saturday, I came downstairs and discovered the landlord directing movers or junk haulers, take your pick, supervising his stuff leaving the apartment. He told me he’d received word from the man’s mother that he was in the hospital after an overdose and that she was having him move back home to enter rehab in Miami. She’d wired the money for back rent, damages, and the movers and cleaners. This also kind of flipped me out. The landlord asked me about the wall beside my door, if he’d done it. I told him to ask the lady next door to me, but most likely, he was the guilty party. I asked whether he’d seen the creepy mask, but the landlord hadn’t payed attention. He was just annoyed at having to spend his Saturday taking care of the apartment cleaned and rented on so little notice. I never mentioned the blessed medals or Holy Water because I knew the landlord was disdainful of religion in general and of Catholicism in particular. He liked me for paying the rent on time and for keeping my place neat and tidy, so no sense in getting him riled up.
A spiritual director also taught me to bind the talking spirits in the name of Jesus and send them to the foot of the cross to be dispatched as he sees fit and to sprinkle exorcised blessed salt. Amazing because only the truth can be spoken. God is so good.
Fr. John is so comforting. You can just feel that he is a force for good and grounded in true faith. He actually reminds me so much of my doctor when I was a kid whom I adored. Same kind of voice and presence. God bless you, Father. Thank you for educating us.
This is an extremely interesting interview. I love Father John's voice, and could listen to it all night long. It's calm, soothing, and kind. Nice to hear that which we (Catholics) are taught is alive and well in today's world.
This is the best interview of an exorcist I’ve listened to to this day. Intelligent questions and most importantly sitting quietly with ears open. Great stuff.
Wow! This was the most impressive person of faith I have ever seen so far. You can feel his love for God through the screen. He feels very solid. His understanding reflected in his way of explaining and simplifying things. He is awesome. He put so much into perspective for me and confirmed so many things I've felt coming. He hit them right on, and it feels good to know that I sensed these things and they turned out to be true. Now I can go forward with the confidence behind it that will make all the difference, thank you!!!!
This is true. Approximately twenty years ago, I and my two young daughters had the chance to visit for weekends over the course of three years, the actual house in New Rochelle, NY where St. Elizabeth Ann Seton lived with her uncle and aunt and cousins. The house, to this day, remains a private residence. Well, when I stayed the woman always offered me the room where Elizabeth Bayley (Seton) most likely slept as a child from the age of eight to fourteen. The woman was a former Catholic NY Puerto Rican who married her boss who was a Greek orthodox pathologist. On one visit, my older daughter dragged me up to my St. Elizabeth Room to show me that in the dresser there were old, ashy used joints and under the bed were used condoms. It THOROUGHLY sickened me. i brought it to the attention of the woman who apologized and said her husband's brother was attending law school in Manhattan and had been staying with them. Six months later, I returned and the brother in law was also there. However, he had been sleeping on the couch in the living room because during a snow storm, the roof above the room he had formerly defiled collapsed under the weight of the snow. Ironically, in St. Elizabeth Seton's "Remembrances' she wrote "I found God in a blade of grass in New Rochelle when I was ten years of age". Elizabeth Seton had a name for the devil. She called him "Sam". Since I was born in an Elizabeth Seton hospital, placed in her orphanage in NY until the age of three and educated by her Sisters of Charity of NY until the age of eighteen, she, the Saint, has ALWAYS been with me. Closeness to a Saint also means that you easily recognize the devil and will usually be fighting him throughout life............The best part of this story for me was the hilarity of how the 'sinful' brother in law was so petrified by the roof caving in that he never returned to that room again............
I'm so glad I listen to these Priests..I'm back to Confessions after years of being away, saying prayers like Rosary and getting to Mass, spending time in front of the Blessed Sacrament
One night I had terrible nightmares of a demonic nature after attending a pro-life March, I woke up around 3am. I got the prayer cards and rosaries from the event, and took them to bed with me. I prayed myself back to sleep. I never knew 3am was significant.
Utterly fascinating man, his stories and explanations are amazing! I am not a follower of any religion but see all that he talks about in the word around us. It's frightening how so many people are just totally unaware of anything outside their small, compact lives and only seem to live by the tenets of the media. Terrifying. Love and Light x francie
Love Father John. He's awesome. EXCELLENT INTERVIEW. You chose an excellent example of the true church. Way to go guys. Would love to see more like this. I'm now a follower of your channel
His voice is so soothing & calming. And when he says “okayyy” I feel like we are having a conversation at a coffee shop lol very knowledgeable! Great video
Fr John had me booked within minutes of the start of his interview. Loved it...sad when it ended. He has so much charisma, his lovely sort voice. Very special Father. No fear..but highly alert. God bless him.🙏
This is a Great conversation and this Priest seems like a very intelligent and gentle Man. My Grandfather died when I was 14 years old and I missed him terribly as he was always very kind to me and had a great sense of humor. When my little Sister had her 1st child my Grandfather returned in Spirit and protected my Nephew from his dad who was an emotionally abusive asshole. None of us knew what was going on really until my Sister asked my Nephew who he was talking to and playing with in the back yard and he replied JOHN. When asked for a description of JOHN, my Nephew described our Grandfather perfectly, a Man he had never laid eyes on much less known. One of the points this Priest touched on which I believe people don’t realize is the Spirit world is all around us at all times and the warring between good and evil never stops. This Priest is so well educated and it’s a shame most people who work in Churches these days don’t seem to be. I’m an old time Conservative Lutheran and was educated by Benedictine Nuns and attended Mass every Friday at school even though I wasn’t required to as a non Catholic. The reason I went was because one Nun who taught Psychology and Humanities was so kind and never talked down to the non Catholic kids or differentiated between different religious beliefs among students. As Christians I believe we must all Honor each other’s chosen Religious practices and stand together as The Family Of God. I believe there are benefits to be had from each and every sect of Christianity and we are fools not to accept what each denomination has to offer. It’s my Prayer that God Bless this Man in his work and each and every one of us.
I just found your channel today and I've been listening almost nonstop to several of your interviews. This particular interview is far and beyond one of the most useful I've come across. Father John is a fascinating man and may God bless him and you gents for the light you have shared.
Yes!!! Our church went on Pilgrimage to Ommeramagau to see the Passion Play... it was awesome! The whole thing is in German but even so the music alone (and they give you a book with English translation), was so beautiful it had me in tears.
Thank you for doing this interview. I personally am going through some struggles and am looking for some answers. I grew up southern baptist but find myself searching more and more outside of it. I know God is real and I know he has all the power. I just feel lost lately and am looking for spiritual help. Watching this helps me remember that God is in control and he put this video in front of me so that I can help my kids with their struggles. Thank y'all and thank God! I am so grateful for His love!
This is an EXCELLENT & IMPORTANT interview.♥️ Thank you to the good Father & to you gentlemen who put this together. God bless each of you & your precious families. 💗 God bless all. 💗
This has to be the best interview and explanation on exorcism and the methods the enemy uses to get control of our lives. Thank you for posting and God Bless you all and your families.
I have the totally same philosophy about horror genre movies. I don’t watch it because it falsely glorifies evil and gives them power they do not have. God bless this Priest for speaking the truth.
I’ll never forget my 2 year old son freaking out while we were preying for my cuz who took his own life. He kept screaming saying there was a monster by the stares. Like true panic.
Father John is amazing!!! I get what he is saying because of my background. I’ve converted to Catholicism recently. Everything he is speaking about is the absolute truth. He is a very holy man.
This was amazing, as a lapsed Catholic due to bad things happening around me growing up, I truly do believe that the devil walks amongst us…though lapsed if I am visiting a city I always go and bless my self in a Catholic Church…but holy water and salt is an excellent second.
WOW! That was an eye opener! Thank you- for your work and words Father John I “feel” like you have actually brought me out of my PTSD! At least it actually feels like it as I am experiencing such mental clarity and groundedness. I know that anyone watching this grows and learns and they grow spiritually in faith as well because this subject is what brought me back to God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost- watching haunted house series. I became clear bout evil, so now there has to be God. Such a pleasure🫶🏼O learned so much I had to start writing it down!! ❤ Thank you and God bless you too🙏🏼🕊️😇👈🏻✝️
Fantastic discussion!! Makes me want to go back to church, I’ve learned so much from Father John!! Really enlightened my understanding of the spirituality and how to fortify my faith. 🙏
Excellent!!! there’s no one who understands these things like a good man who is a priest and understands these things of a spiritual nature …. This man truly understands , I’m very grateful for his wisdom on all these matters
The demonic hour part, mine was around 2am onwards before 4am. This was because someone was using black magic to subdue colleagues. We all had some "visitation", strange things happened, pain lots of body pain. Eventually I asked many people to pray for us, it goes on and off but whenever we feel he went to visit these mediums for help, it starts all over. We are still trying to fight it. What amazes me he gets away with it. I hope God avenge us for all the damage done.
Thank you so much Fr John. I have learnt alot and now understand the power of the holy water and salt. For sure, knowledge is power and I appreciate the education you have given me today. Text from Zambia central Africa 🌍
Since many have asked, the book Fr. John mentions at the end (The Rite) is located here: www.amazon.com/Rite-Making-Modern-Exorcist/dp/0385522711
The book "The Rite" is great. The movie "The Rite" is TERRIBLE.
I REALLY liked this interview. I have been very interested in the topic of spiritual warfare, and love Fr. Ripperger, Fr. Vincent Lampert, Msr. Rosetti, and Jesse Romero. Fr. John brings something to the table, so to speak here, that is lovely and useful
I wonder how he feels since the Catholic pope claimed hell doesn't exist neither does purgatory.
Smh...
I was Catholic growing up, looking into the treaty they had with the Nazis and the Vatican being the third arm of the three city states

Hello
Wow, this is great. I know Fr. John personally. He was my Chaplin when I was locked up. He is a wonderful priest. Every time I went to confession with him, I experienced God's grace. I would feel conviction and sorrow for my sins and I would cry. He is a special priest.
Where can we find more about this priest? He’s so charismatic!!
God Bless you! I know when The Hy Ghost comes upon you - you may cry!
May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you, preserve you, and protect you dear brother 🙏👑☦
Matthew 7:22 -
"Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
And in thy name have cast out devils?
And in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!"
I hope you have been able to straighten out your life and embrace the love of God.
Thank you for just listening and not interrupting him much.
I'm not Catholic, I attended Methodist and Baptist churches until I was 19. I do not currently attend any church but I think God put this in my feed. I thank you for this message.
"Ordinary catholic families cannot survive.They must be extraordinary catholic families. They must be what I do not hesitate to call 'heroic' catholic families.Ordinary catholic families are no match for the devil as he uses media of communication to secularize and desacralize modern society.No less than ordinary individual catholics can survive,so ordinary catholic families cannot survive.They have no choice. They must either be holy- which means sanctified - or they will disappeared". Fr John Hardon S.J
Many Catholics easily stray away from the faith that they received. What are the reasons for their falling into complacency, becoming indifferent and even hostile towards Christ and the Christian Faith?
The fault with many Catholics is that they think baptism is a graduation from having acquired knowledge and understanding of their faith. After completing their catechism classes or RCIA journey, they no longer seek out opportunities to continue growing their faith, both doctrinally and spiritually. Their only occasion to grow in faith is the one-hour Mass that they attend every Sunday. This is hardly enough to sustain the life of a Catholic. Those who do not grow in their faith are already losing their faith. There is no neutrality.
How, then, can we grow in our faith? Firstly, we need to deepen our intimacy with God through Christ. In Christ, we come to know and love the Father. Secondly, we must be rooted in the Word of God. We cannot grow in our faith without deepening our love and appreciation for the Word of God through bible study and most of all, a prayerful reading and sharing of the Word of God.
Thirdly, we must seek the support of the Christian community. A Catholic without the support of his fellow Catholics will eventually fall out from the faith, especially when he undergoes the trials and challenges of life, the influence of secularism, and the materialistic, individualistic and atheistic views of the world. Fourthly, to grow our faith, we need to evangelise and be a witness to Christ. We evangelise ourselves by evangelising others. By sharing our faith with others, we strengthen our own faith. By teaching our faith to others, we grow in understanding and clarity in what we believe in.
Finally, growing in faith is to grow in our Christian life. This is the most effective form of witnessing. It means that those of us who are baptised must live a life of holiness and purity, free from sin and a bad conscience. A life of holiness and charity are the fruits of a strong spiritual life and a life of hope founded in the promises of God.
If the Catholic Church is accused of being satanic, that is no more than its Founder, Jesus Christ, was accused of. When our Lord was on earth, he had the same problem. He was driving demons out, and some said he was doing this by the power of the devil. How did Jesus respond? He said, “How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand; that is the end of him” (Mk 3:23-26).
The Catholic Church drives out the devil, too. This practice is called exorcism. No one can deny that the Catholic Church has been doing exorcisms on people and driving out Satan for nearly two millennia. Therefore, we must reason like Jesus: If the Catholic Church were from the devil, it could not drive the devil out.
We shouldn’t be surprised when such charges are made against the Catholic Church. Jesus told us, “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master; it is enough for the disciple to be like his teacher and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign those of his household” (Mt 10:24-25).
Images and Statues, Relics & Holy Water
I. Images and Statues
Deut. 4:15 - from this verse, Protestants say that since we saw “no form” of the Lord, we should not make graven images of Him.
Deut. 4:16 - of course, in early history Israel was forbidden to make images of God because God didn’t yet reveal himself visibly “in the form of any figure.”
Deut. 4:17-19 - hence, had the Israelites depicted God not yet revealed, they might be tempted to worship Him in the form of a beast, bird, reptile or fish, which was a common error of the times.
Exodus 3:2-3; Dan 7:9; Matt. 3:16; Mark 1:10; Luke 3:22; John 1:32; Acts 2:3- later on, however, we see that God did reveal himself in visible form (as a dove, fire, etc).
Deut. 5:8 - God’s commandment “thou shall not make a graven image” is entirely connected to the worship of false gods. God does not prohibit images to be used in worship, but He prohibits the images themselves to be worshiped.
Exodus 25:18-22; 26:1,31 - for example, God commands the making of the image of a golden cherubim. This heavenly image, of course, is not worshiped by the Israelites. Instead, the image disposes their minds to the supernatural and draws them to God.
Num. 21:8-9 - God also commands the making of the bronze serpent. The image of the bronze serpent is not an idol to be worshiped, but an article that lifts the mind to the supernatural.
I Kings 6:23-36; 7:27-39; 8:6-67 - Solomon’s temple contains statues of cherubim and images of cherubim, oxen and lions. God did not condemn these images that were used in worship.
2 Kings 18:4 - it was only when the people began to worship the statue did they incur God’s wrath, and the king destroyed it. The command prohibiting the use of graven images deals exclusively with the false worship of those images.
1 Chron. 28:18-19 - David gives Solomon the plan for the altar made of refined gold with a golden cherubim images. These images were used in the Jews’ most solemn place of worship.
2 Chron. 3:7-14 - the house was lined with gold with elaborate cherubim carved in wood and overlaid with gold.
Ezek. 41:15 - Ezekiel describes graven images in the temple consisting of carved likenesses of cherubim. These are similar to the images of the angels and saints in many Catholic churches.
Col. 1:15 - the only image of God that Catholics worship is Jesus Christ, who is the “image” (Greek “eikon”) of the invisible God.
II. Relics
Mark 15:43; John 19:38 - Joseph of Arimathea sought Christ’s dead body instead of leaving it with the Romans. Joseph gave veneration to our Lord’s body.
Mark 16:1; Luke 24:1 - the women came to further anoint Christ’s body even though it had been sealed in the tomb.
John 19:39 - Nicodemus donated over one hundred pounds of spices to wrap in Jesus’ grave clothes. This is also veneration of our Lord’s body.
Matt. 9:21; Mark 5:28 - the woman with the hemorrhage just sought the hem of Christ’s cloak and was cured. This shows that God uses physical things to effect the supernatural.
Acts 19:11-12 - Paul’s handkerchiefs healed the sick and those with unclean spirits. This is another example of physical things effecting physical and spiritual cures.
Acts 5:15 - Peter’s shadow healed the sick. This proves that relics of the saints have supernatural healing power, and this belief has been a part of Catholic tradition for 2,000 years.
Rev. 6:9 - the souls of the martyrs are seen beneath the heavenly altar. Their bones are often placed beneath altars in Catholic churches around the world.
2 Kings 13:21 - Elisha’s bones bring a man back to life. The saints’ bones are often kept beneath the altars of Catholic churches and have brought about supernatural cures throughout the Christian age.
Rom. 13:7; Phil. 2:25-29; Heb. 3:3; 1 Pet. 2:7 - we are taught to honor the people of God and in 1 Cor. 4:16-17; 1 Cor. 11:1-2; Phil. 3:17; 1 Thess. 1:6; 2 Thess. 3:7; Heb. 6:12; Heb. 13:7; James 5:10-11 - we are reminded to imitate them. Keeping relics of the saints serves both to honor and imitate their heroic faith in Christ (just as keeping articles of deceased loved ones helps us honor and imitate them).
III. Holy Water
Ex. 29:4; Lev. 8:6 - Aaron and his sons were washed in holy water in their consecration to the priesthood. Thus, we see the use of holy water during the beginning of salvation history.
Ex. 30:18-19 - the Lord requires Aaron and his sons to wash their hands and feet in holy water before they offered sacrifices to Him. The Church uses holy water for various purposes, and holy water fonts are generally located at the entrance of Catholic churches to be used before the sacrifice of Christ is offered to the Father.
Num. 5:17 - here again, the priest uses holy water. God uses natural matter to convey the supernatural, just as God who is Spirit became flesh in Christ Jesus.
Num. 8:7 - the Lord says to “sprinkle them with the water of remission.” The Lord uses water, a physical property, to convey His supernatural property of grace.
1 Kings 7:38-39 - in King Solomon’s temple, there were ten large basins of holy water. Holy water has always been used in the context of worship.
John 9:6-7 - Jesus uses clay and spittle to heal the blind man’s eyes, and ordered him to wash in the pool of Siloam to effect the cure. Jesus did not need to use spittle, clay and water, but He does to demonstrate that God uses the material things He created to give graces and heal us.
John 13:4-10 - the Lord uses water to wash the apostles’ feet to prepare them for their sacramental priesthood.
John 19:34 - water and blood flowed from Jesus’ pierced side on the Cross. The Church uses holy water as a symbol of our Lord’s life giving water that flowed from His sacred Heart, and as the property which brings about the power of Jesus Christ Himself, in baptism, the Eucharist, and other sacred rites of the Church.

SO VERY VERY TRUE!!!
Did Society ever have that anchor?
We’re lost and don’t even know it.
I have been away from the church for a long long time. I feel a tug at my heart to go back. This priest seems to really know his stuff. Thanks for posting! I'm glad I found this!
I hope you go back, even if it's just to regain your spiritual side. You're life has so much potential with spirituality and god
God knows we are prey for demons unless we cling to Him. That is why He gave us His Church, the sacraments, to protect us. We must utilise them with complete trust in God.
Follow that tug ❤I came back in 2017 and I went to confession and my life completely changed. I have completely fallen in love with my Catholic faith and it’s beauty and the healing of my wounds has truly happened for the first time in my life. The blessed mother guided me back to the church. Stay close to her and the rosary and go to confession and the Eucharist. I will be praying for you.
I think God is calling all of us to go back to him, I too have felt the same calling
Do it the bread will make u whole
As a practicing Muslim, I have deep respect for my catholic friends. I am very much in tune with the Christian spirituality and wish we all work together to defeat devils in ourselves.

I am a Christian, but not Catholic. This interview means a lot. I think we are going into some bad times, but I also am slowly seeing more people turn towards God then I used to.
Catholics are Christian others are protesters.
I was raised Catholic but I'm not religious im more spiritual but I hope the world would repent their sins and turn from evil
Likewise.
I am Episcopalian.
I wish that my Church would involve themselves with understanding the demonic reality & Practicing exorcism.
I am trying to learn on my own.
I DO believe, & it IS my experience that anyone--even a non-believer--can cast out evil in the Holy Name of Jesus.
Jesus, Himself, *_WILL_* INTERVENE & CAST OUT DEMONS.
Whether the person affected by the demons, or doing the casting out is a Christian.
But,of course, one who has made the Sacred Covenant of Baptism with Jesus, & walks the Path of Discipleship of have more power & ability.
But, Jesus is the Elder Brother & Savior of ALL OF US, & WILL HELP ALL OF US--whether we understand & appreciate Him, or not.
Jesus is PURE Love & Compassion .
He will help ALL OF US, REGARDLESS.
I have never tried this on a practicing satanist, who willingly, purposely comports with evil.
I have only done it with people who WANT to be released, or who have no understanding to even KNOW that it is the demonic that is their problem.
I am _very clear_ that the reality of demons is an huge factor in what goes on in our lives & this world.
It may not be full-on possession, but there is constant, regular stream of demonic obsession & oppression.
And, satanism & the dark occult is woven into EVERYTHING & getting WORSE.
(I have been studying satanism-- *_NOT TO PRACTICE, BUT TO KNOW MINE ENEMY_* -- & now that I know what to look for, I can see it EVERYWHERE. 💔
It horrifies me & breaks my heart.
And, I can see how SO MUCH of what is happening is the unfolding of satanist agendae.
Now that I am understanding more about satanism, it is very clear to me in ways that it never was.
New Age stuff, & the normalization of occult practices & witchcraft, in particular, ESPECIALLY aimed at & amongst *_CHILDREN_* 💔
It scares me, & sickens me, & breaks my heart.💔)
And, I think that we all need to be aware of this (in a grounded, calm, non-hysterical, not-freaked-out way), & act against it.
We are in the end times, & the Bible says that it will be "as it was in the days of Noah" , & that the gates of hell will be opened & the residents loosed upon the Earth, & the Nephilim will be loosed as well.
I, frankly, do not believe that we can solve the problems of this world WITHOUT recognizing this & taking ACTION against it.
We are, *_in stark REALITY,_* engaged in _Spiritual warfare._
I am also not Catholic, however I believe that many Catholics will be saved because they repent their sins to Christ Jesus and Believe in their heart. I knew an older woman years ago (she likely is with the Lord now) that taught me a lot and she went to many churches in the area because she said the only truth that was 100% correct is the Bible. Man corrupts she said, and man corrupts scripture so we must pray and study. At the end of the day though I believe that you must believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God and died for us as our savior and that you need to repent of your sins to Jesus. I do not believe that any man can forgive your sins, only Jesus as our intercessor before God the Father. Jesus truly God and truly Man came to save you as well. Repent of your sins and trust in him.

So interesting! My dad was a priest in Fatima, Portugal. He was born in a little village about 20 minutes from Fatima and was the only brother (6), that joined the Seminary at age 10. He got a dispensation in 1968 to marry my mom. He had to promise to teach the rest of his life. He taught at the University level from that point forward. He and my mom were married for 53 years. He was my best friend and I miss him every day ❤

You guys did a good job interviewing Father John. You built a rapport, asked him some good questions, and let him talk. This is difficult subject matter. I've watched this (3) times now and everything Father John says lines up with what researchers (Laura Van Tyne) and other demonologists and demon-seers (June Lundgren) have said. They are all looking at the subject matter from slighty different angles, but the information lines up and correlates with eachother . He's very sharp and is a fantastic narrator. I love listening to his anecdotes. I'm not trying to nutswing, but you guys should bring him back. This is one of the best videos I've seen on the subject anywhere. 👍👍
Thanks Michael!
This was an amazing moving interview. I had fallen asleep listening to whatever and woke up with this interview playing and I'm thankful it came to me
Nutswinger!
@Michael Mathieu: Laura Van Tyne is a Medium and is involved with the demonic. The Bible warns us to have nothing to do with Mediums for it is an abomination to the Lord. They are literally in different kingdoms. Fr is a Priest and is guided by the Holy Spirit and is under the Authority of Jesus Christ who is God. Laura Van Tyne is being guided by demons.
The older we get, the wiser!
This priest is wonderful. I wish I could give confession to him. He’s heard it all, right? Bless him and his ministry.
We have some Lourdes holy water for about 20 years in the house. I just sprinkled some around the house and drank a tiny little bit. I am returning to the faith after decades away lost in sin. I was going to go to confession this coming week. I’m now going to make sure I do a very thorough examination before I go.
That first examination afters years and years is HARD. Made my first confession at 36. But since then I keep a "running" tally so to speak and it get easier each week and has given time to work on other spiritual projects.
Man can not forgive you of any sin only THE SOVEREIGN CREATOR can. So, confess your sins to HIM and you will receive the REAL forgiveness that will keep you out of HELL. CONFESSION IS ONLY 1 of the false doctrines that is Man-Made. Don't forget CONFESSION to GOD + REPENTANCE= FORGIVENESS

@@jewelboxballerina Usually a priest is tapped by the bishop to be an exorcist. Even if they are reluctant, they have to obey the bishop. If a priest has a fascination or particular interest in the demonic, that is a red flag. That being said, this priest seems solid…but maybe a bit eccentric.
@@jewelboxballerina What malice and confusion did the priest create? I did found any! Depends on how much you as an individual know about the faith!

I’m Eastern Orthodox and therapist as well. I only once experienced something out of ordinary, a friend of a friend who came to me to talk about her trauma because she wanted to know what modality will work best for her. She end up being at my house for four hours, groan, moan it sounded like an animal noise and then she looked at me and asked “Aren’t you afraid of me?” I said no. I know Psalm 90 by heart and I couldn’t remember even a first word. She said that she is tired lay down, while she was on my sofa I searched psalm 90 on my phone and read it continuously. When she left I felt off emotionally, physically and spiritually. I re-blessed my house and with holy myrth put crosses on the wall. It took me five days to recover and I had a communion. I prepared well for communion with fasting, praying for this person, spent days in prayers and silence. Only after communion I felt relieved.
Scary! Especially if u r by yourself w this crazy person! One of my patients locked all the doors so I wouldn't leave. Fortunately, I am tall & husky and when he tried to attack me, I threw him against a sofa; so he began to cry like a baby. I called the police and they took him to ER. But because they didn't realize he was having a crisis, he committed suicide a couple days later along w his dog. It was so sad ni one cared about his mental status improving b4 sending him home.

I’m also Eastern Orthodox. My spiritual father has told me that the most powerful prayer is this ‘Lord, Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.’ He told me that it burns demons. I hope you never experience anything like that again but know that this prayer will help you.
@vanessaweemsss5740 Very sad
You asked simple, direct, and open questions - and you gave Father John plenty of respect and room to express the full breadth of his experience and wisdom. This was gold. New Sub right here.
Perhaps the reason exorcism was hidden in the attic is because the Vatican leaders wanted it so. I am so happy for this revival. I have a degree in psychology and have seen that the two are different. In fact I would say that the world opulation has more of a spiritual problem than a psychological one. God bless.
it's called Vatican II. The smoke of Satan entered the church.
Every bishop is an exorcist, and bishop can nominate as many exorcists as he wants. Here is the problem, bishops stopped fight against evil spirits and stopped nominating exorcists. That's why church is failing because of that.
Hi! My mom is a psychiatrist and she said the same thing as you. The world has a spiritual problem. She said there is definitely a difference
@@mariobros7205 As a Protestant missionary, I used to do exorcism to Muslims, Buddhists, Africans......, and baptised them with the Holy Spirit , the Muslims always had visions of the Christ. When I went to the traditional Latin catechism, I asked the priest if he could do the exorcism when a case was presented. He said the case should be examined, it took time. Because of sexual perversion, the majority of the young are possessed. The Satan can’t defeat us, we fail because we don’t believe in the power of the Holy Spirit.

As a teenager, after months of indoctrination to enter the Rainbows, I had decided not to follow through. The night before initiation, when the candidates were taken into the ceremonial room of the
lodge and given a run through. It was then that I was told that I would have to swear allegiance to ancient false gods. This didn’t sit well with me, having accepted Jesus Christ into my heart as my Lord and Savior.
The podcast had been coming up on my feed late at night, when I certainly did not want to engage in the spiritual warfare listening to would undoubtedly bring...

This was an EXCELLENT interview. Father John was extremely interesting and smart. Keep up the awesome interviews … more please.
More to come!
Excellent? Interviewers are all over the map with their questions. They're interviewing an exorcist, and so you think they would ask: how does the exorcist prepare for an exorcism? What are effective tools in an exorcism? Failed to ask the priest basic questions about his exorcism experiences. Ones that went well. Ones that didn't. How did the priest become a more proficient exorcist? Does he use Latin? Agreed: Father John, interesting and smart. The interviewers: far from skilled in the art of conducting an interview. Did they prepare for this interview? Or just show up and start asking random questions?
@@douglasfaulkner2586 Hey Doug!
Thanks for the feedback. Of course having a conversation vs a strict Q&A format can sometimes lead to missed questions/opportunities. We strive to do better with each interview we do and are thankful for constructive criticism.
That being said, and no offense here, sometimes questions one may find interesting or important, we do not. Or it may be the case we felt they were answered. Fr. John was quite thorough (from his training to numerous case examples). He also had a story he could not share publicly regarding an exorcism that didn't go well. We respect those wishes, and he had freedom to share what he was comfortable with.
It sounds like you're seeking more of a step-by-step guide to an exorcist's preparation, and what a priest does during such an event, which this episode was not about. The theme was what families/individuals could do if confronted with such a situation. While the convo entails many other details, we weren't locked onto your above line of questioning, obviously.
If you're interested in more minute details of exorcist preparation and/or the rite itself, you may try Googling the many other exorcist interviews online, or reading a book of such details (there are several).
@@TheDadsDoomsdayGuide Gracious response. Blessings to you and your staff. Wishing you a Merry Christmas.

Guys, the videos, cameras and internet can be manipulated by evil too. I am really happy that this is here for us to open our eyes. Thank you father John for what you do and for this detail video!
I would argue the internet is the main cause of evil today. Jesus was pretty clear that the two fastest ways to find yourself in Hell are 1) Bearing False Witness, IE lying and 2) Lusting. It can be argued that the internet has sent both of the things into the stratosphere as far as the average person.
I keep telling people that this happens and they just look at me. It's real.
Yep. Agree. One Catholic priest exorcist on another channel talks about getting demonic text messages....
💯
And also can manipulate cell phones...they can send texts.
Don't communicate with A.I..
It's a portal for demons.
Wow. The priest in this video is such a gift to everyone. I am so glad this video came into my play list. His voice caught me first and I had to stop and listen. I will be watching and listening to this again. I will also share this with people I Love. Thank you so very much. To know there really are people of Faith like him with us today.
I remember an interview with a guy who interviewed serial killers. He said all serial killers had a distinct smell. He said each one had a different smell,and he didn't know if it had always been, or of they got that way by killing people. Interesting that father would say something similar.
You can smell evil, if iniated by God Almighty 💜
Which one is it then distinct or different? Hogwash
@@skateorbri Both it is distinctive in that your nose is to close to your @ss, they smell like sulphur that's what demons smell like😚
Funny how when ppl who have never experienced something of the subject themselves, they doubt that it exists. Just because youve never experienced something, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Sometimes it comes off as a smell, a feeling, a sense, even a visual. But I believe these things are true, maybe different for individuals, but true in different ways. I can smell when someone close to me is going to die, to be honest with you it reminds me of embalming fluids. Depending on how strong it is, will determine how close to me they are. I really don't like it because I'm constantly wondering who it's going to be. But who knows, that's just what I think.
@@carolinetalksdifferent2946 I watched my father die, slowly and in the last 2 weeks he had a smell, it is distinctive, and I will never forget it, it is of decay as the body shuts down the lack of oxygen allows more carbon dioxide to be emitted, people say you can smell death, and you can, but not same as people who are demonically oppressed they emit a smell of sulphur, and I do believe some spiritually gifted people esp empaths can detect it.
Superb dialogue guys and this priest has a way of hitting his message hard in ways we can relate to. Having experienced evil first hand many times in my life I can totally relate to his words. Don't under estimate just how widespread demonic oppression and influence are. The danger about it is that hides its motives and effects really well. The only way to avoid or fight it in your own personal life is to attend the sacraments, especially confession, regularly and pray for the grace of humility. Without humility cannot have wisdom. It is a catylist for evil for pride to be exercised. It leads to anger, violence, temptation, temper, bad choices and many other sins. With pride we fail to recognise our own failings and forget to pray. Confession, the Eucharist and daily prayer is essential. Place a blessed St Benedicts medal in each corner of your home, wear a miraculous medal and be selective about what you invite into your home especially where the tv is concerned and computers and ipads etc. You will be attacked in various ways including your health. Pray and persevere and you'll beat it all. Perseverence of some issues may relate to sins carried yet forgotten...pray hard.0
Ave Maria
Good comment.
I go to confession, make an honest effort and trust in the mercy of God to deal with forgotten sin.
Ave Maria
Matthew 7:22 - Applies to Catholicism , which leads people astray.
"Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
And in thy name have cast out devils?
And in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!"
a demon wont let me use public toilets
Amen ... exactly 💯
I’ve read (and seen) The Rite, both Blatty Exorcists, two of Fr. Amorth’s books, seen a slew of interviews with Fathers Ripperger and Lampert and this is by far, the most enthralling account from a real priest. Powerful!
Thank you for watching!
We need more of him please!
Great interview guys. Probably the best interview with an exorcist I've seen on UA-cam.
Appreciate it very much! Glad you enjoyed it.
It really is a great interview. Fr. Malachi Martin also has some good stories. Fr. Amorth made a good documentary where he showed how he worked.
Very interesting. I also like to listen to exorcist Father Chad Ripperger.
Silvia of Rome Fr. Ripperger is the best I’ve see so far.
Try to listen to bishop James long
This is a good interview. The interviewers let the priest talk and not cutting him short and asking nonsense questions and I really appreciate it a lot. Good luck for more.
Thanks for watching!
This interview was AWESOME! I could listen to him speak all day..
You are absolutely beautiful !!!!!!
He's not the father
What a beautiful, intelligent, interesting, gentle speaking man. I'm not Catholic but I could listen to him all day.
Same. I'm anti organized religion I have a feeling I'd listen to ANYTHING THIS MAN SAYS!! I WOULD LOVE to sit down and speak with him. With all that's happening in this world right now and how bad things are I could def use some spiritual guidance
@@savannahmadden4958 Do contact him God is always waiting for us, we do not know when Is our last day here on earth to be call unto His presence Savannah. We need to be ready.
Look up Father Rippinger
I am catholic and I can listen to this man endlessly
I love listening to Father John speak , something about his voice calms me and I listen intently. I listen on a Bluetooth speaker at work and so many people ask me what and who i am listening to. I gladly share with them.
Surprised no one's told you that's inappropriate.
?
Such a great interview and well articulated / explained. I’m not Catholic (I’m of Christian Orthodox Faith) and I fully concur with everything discussed. Thank you for bringing this important subject to the attention of the world - people need to be more aware! God bless all and stay close to Jesus Christ. ✝️🙏🏻
I'm glad to see the full interview posted! I found you guys through TikTok and wanted to hear the full interview.

Fr. John has that gift of being able to explain spiritual matters in plain terms. I really enjoyed this video. Some questions were answered and I felt the truth of those answers. Thank you, Fr. John.
Thanks for checking it out!
I could listen to this guy for 2 more hours. Excellent interview! Thank you! 🙏😊
My ex-husband dated a woman for two years, whom I believe is possessed/demonic. She told my son I invite the devil into my home because I'm Catholic. She and my ex created an environment for me that was horrific. My poor son was in the middle. I tried to protect him as much as I was able. I did have a premonition prior to this woman coming into our lives. The message I received was "call on Me (Jesus)." I sure did. I could feel this woman's negative energy in my home. I've never experienced. I turned to my Catholic faith. During this time, I went to a Catholic store to find a crucifix. I came across one that really spoke to me. I had never seen a St. Benedict crucifix up close. I went to pay for my item and the clerk told me I had chosen a special crucifix. I later learned this was a crucifix used in exorcisms. I hung it above my front door and honestly, I felt very protected.
How has the situation turned out?
Hi sister. my conversion was throug a Saint Benedict medal too. I have found this precious medal when i was a child. I grew up with an gnostic view of life and death. Later i have found some books of Father Gabriele Amorth (an exorcist) and he explain about the power of this medal against evil. This was the begnin of my convertion.
God bless you, and our mother Mary will interced for us. Saint Benedict pray for us.
Have the cross blessed by the priest as well.
@@sanbenedettodinorcia9724 Jesus Christ is our only intercessor to God. We don't need no one else to intercede on our behalf. All power and authority has been given to Jesus, the Bible clearly tells us that.
Do not be fooled, no medallion in the world can save us from anything; that's why we are commanded by God *not to create any graven images.*
God clearly commands us not to: make, worship, or pray to any images of Heaven, or earth. May I ask, within the Holy Bible, where does it say that Catholic image's get a free pass by God to break these commandments?
Jesus Christ delivered you, not an angel, and certainly not a piece of metal...
Lastly, please don't take my words to you to mean that I'm personally attacking you, because that's not where my heart, or intention is. I'm just trying to open your eyes to the truth, and the truth is the word of God, a.k.a. the Holy Bible...
@jesusislife9259 : Thank you for stating that truth.
Also, the Lord Jesus Christ came not to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it
Obediance to the Law is critical. Observe the Sabbath and keep it Holy (Saturday being the 7th day if the week).
Repent of sin and call on Christ for forgiveness. Pray and converse with him only.
When Jesus began his ministry, he instructed His apostles to announce the Good News of the Kingdom, cast out demons and heal in His name. Christians (not catholics) have been given this authority as His disciples to cast out demons, but most in the church appear to be too afraid of dealing with this reality.
Everything anyone needs to know is in the Bible.
The Lord Jesus is the Shepard of the sheep.
The enemy of God and man is a real one. The battle has already been won, but we must continue to fight until the Lord returns...

Father John is such a kind, loving, knowledgeable and most of all, HUMBLE man!!!! I learned sooooo much and am making a general confession very soon to confess a ton of sins I have committed over the last 75 years! Thank you so very much for this truly wonderful presentation. May God bless all of you abundantly!
Keep going to confession and receiving the sacraments. Love God and your neighbor and refrain from mortal sin. God bless you
My father worked at a prison for the criminally insane up to the late 90s.
He had one prisoner on the ward he ran that he was convinced was possessed. My father was not religious at this time.
One of things he mentioned was the smell the man would put off when he went into his catatonic state.
The smell of rotting flesh? *shudders*
@@aura1298
Yes.
To the word, that’s how he described it.
They gave him showers. Both regular and with chemical agents. Ran his blood etc and could never make the smell go away until he came out of his catatonic state.
I can imagine that's something your Father won't ever forget.
It's horrible - extremely facinating in a wtf way
That's horrifying. 😵
Really enjoyed this interview. For all the problems which every institution has the Catholic Church was the first Christian church on the planet technically and there’s some thing about good Catholic priests - they seem like scholars and incredibly educated in the deep roots of Christian tradition. When I hear somebody like an evangelical preacher - they don’t generally give me a sense of peace like this priest does. This is probably why high-level masons take an anti-Catholic pledge. If this original church goes away Christianity just gets diluted into a variety of different things.
Catholics are the oldest and the original church. They have tradition(books from apostoles and saints) and scripture(Bible, the main thing from Jesus and Jews), modern Protestants only have scripture thats why they are not as appealing. To have appeal the church has to have culture not only borders commanded by God. If your group is not uniqe in any way why just not surrender and become a part of the confused grey mix that America is today?
That is a very discerning comment James.
Good priests are definitely a rock. Thank you for appreciating what's good about the Catholic Church and the richness of it. I came back this past year as an adult and am astounded to learn about the heritage and the really deep spiritual and theological answers that we weren't taught those kids and that is sadly not taught to the adult laity so much these days either. When it comes to problems that the church has developed in the past almost 100 years, one thing that a lot of people don't realize is that the church was deliberately infiltrated by Communists and radicals and the orientation of men who were going to cause the sex scandals in previous decades, which was done on the order of the Kremlin from the 1930s through the 50's until certain things became a self perpetuating culture in the seminaries. It was Satan's greatest assault on the Church. When you think about it, what Church is the most attacked and criticized? The one Satan hates the most.
@@lilyw.719 I’m just finding my way back to the church as an adult for the first time.
The devil hates the Catholic Church because it is the Church which Christ Himself instituted. He will try everything to break it up and the clergy is attacked all the time. Jesus promised us « .......the gates of hell will NEVER prevail over it ( HIS church) . «
I’m not catholic but I’m non denominational Christian. And in our community there’s a movement of deliverance. This stuff is for real!
I'm a convert to Catholicism. The power of holy water in my experience has been amazing ! Spraying it in every room and all the doors had great results. My night terrors stopped and the fear I felt in my house. And I didn't stop there, I hung a crucifix in the rooms after the rooms were blessed. I really can't explain it ... But it works ! ...The people I went to the protestant church with are so missing out ! ...✝️
Where do you get holy water? Can a Baptist walk in and just get a bottle full? I’d love to spray my home down it’s full of evil I know I feel it everyday . I’ve heard things seen thing such as lights coming on and going off by themselves. I would hear my son calling my name I’d go to him and he be like what? I’d go didn’t u just call me he would say no mom I didn’t. It sounded just like him. I’ve actually felt something in my bed even people staying with me said same thing . So I knew I was t going crazy. I really need some.
@@angelanetherton8240 you can buy holy water at any Christian bookstore here in Fla. You can get any religious articles there.edit: I am not catholic so I don’t know if there is a specific one that they have to use. I just know that most people and other churches get it from a religious bookstore.
@@patricaowens oh okay cool.. ty so much for your help. God bless u!
@@angelanetherton8240 Angela, Its really too bad you and your family are suffering through this. I know from personal experience how terrifying this is. I spent years being terrified of this very kind of thing your discribing ! Yes, ...you can as a Baptist get holy water. Go to any Catholic church and ask them. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to give you some don't be afraid to ask. As Catholics this is what we're here to do ! While your there ask the priest to pray for you . Their prayers are powerful and will provide you with peace and wisdom while your going through this battle. If you continue to have these problems call the priest to come and bless your house. Again, they're more than happy to help people struggling through these very things. Whatever you do, "DON'T," and I mean "DON'T" try and have a seiance or use a quoija board ! These entities are taunting you and your family to give them an open door so to speak to let them into your lives.( As christians we don't have to ! !) If you use those things you'll open doors you wont be able to close. I can tell you that you can, through the Lords and the Catholic churches help get beyond this thing. I'm living proof ! Msg me if you need help..... GOD BLESS ! ...👍🫂🙏✝️
@@angelanetherton8240 P.S. Angela , Iv never heard of a Christian bookstore carrying Holy Water. It's not my recommendation for someone to go anywhere for it but a Catholic Church. Thats why people of all faiths go to a CATHOLIC church to get these holy things. They're blessed by a Catholic priest for this particular issue. And they won't charge you a thing. They'll pray for you and your family as well . And that you just can't buy ! ...🤷👍✝️
Funny thing. 2 years ago we had a guy in inspection who pen whipped parts, sabotaged other people's work, caused all kinds of trouble. Late one night I took holy water to the inspection bay. He got even more riled up and was no longer working for us shortly there after. So what he was saying about throwing holy water... lived it already.
There was a “crazy” guy who lived beneath me in Manhattan. He’d get ideas that certain people in the building were placing curses on him and he’d pound on your door, stick notes under your door daring you to come out and “fight him like a man” in the street. Other times, he’d be very pleasant and mannerly. I knew he was from Brazil and worked as a drummer in different clubs. One day my next door neighbor told me he’d spent over an hour kicking the wall next to my door while I’d been at work. I found his note challenging me to fight. Now, he was a large man, muscular, maybe 25ish. I’m female, was in my late 40’s, on the petite size. He knew what I looked like, so coming out to fight him like a man was ridiculous. Maybe I was crazy, but I went to his door with the note, and decided to confront him. He’d really messed up the wall and I didn’t want to be blamed for the damage. He replied that he as sorry, but he had not kicked anyone’s wall and hadn’t written the note. He seemed all mild-mannered, very polite, but when he opened his door to slip back inside, I saw he had on the wall a gruesome mask of a goat with its tongue out and on the telephone stand beneath it, a statue of a stooped over man. It creeped me out. Later that night after he left for work, I slid a Miraculous Medal, a St. Benedict Medal, both blessed, under the door jamb. I also sprinkled Holy Water on his door, prayed a decade of the Rosary and Prayer to St. Michael before returning to my apartment. A week later from that Saturday, I came downstairs and discovered the landlord directing movers or junk haulers, take your pick, supervising his stuff leaving the apartment. He told me he’d received word from the man’s mother that he was in the hospital after an overdose and that she was having him move back home to enter rehab in Miami. She’d wired the money for back rent, damages, and the movers and cleaners. This also kind of flipped me out. The landlord asked me about the wall beside my door, if he’d done it. I told him to ask the lady next door to me, but most likely, he was the guilty party. I asked whether he’d seen the creepy mask, but the landlord hadn’t payed attention. He was just annoyed at having to spend his Saturday taking care of the apartment cleaned and rented on so little notice. I never mentioned the blessed medals or Holy Water because I knew the landlord was disdainful of religion in general and of Catholicism in particular. He liked me for paying the rent on time and for keeping my place neat and tidy, so no sense in getting him riled up.
A spiritual director also taught me to bind the talking spirits in the name of Jesus and send them to the foot of the cross to be dispatched as he sees fit and to sprinkle exorcised blessed salt. Amazing because only the truth can be spoken. God is so good.
Fr. John is so comforting. You can just feel that he is a force for good and grounded in true faith. He actually reminds me so much of my doctor when I was a kid whom I adored. Same kind of voice and presence. God bless you, Father. Thank you for educating us.
Wow, I could listen to Father all day. Sounds like your doctor explaining anatomy. Love this God bless!
Thank you for this interview ❤ Share the word and teach the children 🙏
This is an extremely interesting interview. I love Father John's voice, and could listen to it all night long. It's calm, soothing, and kind. Nice to hear that which we (Catholics) are taught is alive and well in today's world.
Thank you Fr. John. Please pray for me for committing grievous sins. Help me get the courage to go to confession. God bless you, Fr. John.
Go Angelo. No one is going to judge you. It's all about forgiveness
This is the best interview of an exorcist I’ve listened to to this day. Intelligent questions and most importantly sitting quietly with ears open. Great stuff.
Wow , I've sat through all this and I find him absolutely mesmerising.
His insights & the way he speaks I could listen all day
Wow! This was the most impressive person of faith I have ever seen so far. You can feel his love for God through the screen. He feels very solid. His understanding reflected in his way of explaining and simplifying things. He is awesome. He put so much into perspective for me and confirmed so many things I've felt coming. He hit them right on, and it feels good to know that I sensed these things and they turned out to be true. Now I can go forward with the confidence behind it that will make all the difference, thank you!!!!
This is true. Approximately twenty years ago, I and my two young daughters had the chance to visit for weekends over the course of three years, the actual house in New Rochelle, NY where St. Elizabeth Ann Seton lived with her uncle and aunt and cousins. The house, to this day, remains a private residence. Well, when I stayed the woman always offered me the room where Elizabeth Bayley (Seton) most likely slept as a child from the age of eight to fourteen. The woman was a former Catholic NY Puerto Rican who married her boss who was a Greek orthodox pathologist. On one visit, my older daughter dragged me up to my St. Elizabeth Room to show me that in the dresser there were old, ashy used joints and under the bed were used condoms. It THOROUGHLY sickened me. i brought it to the attention of the woman who apologized and said her husband's brother was attending law school in Manhattan and had been staying with them. Six months later, I returned and the brother in law was also there. However, he had been sleeping on the couch in the living room because during a snow storm, the roof above the room he had formerly defiled collapsed under the weight of the snow. Ironically, in St. Elizabeth Seton's "Remembrances' she wrote "I found God in a blade of grass in New Rochelle when I was ten years of age". Elizabeth Seton had a name for the devil. She called him "Sam". Since I was born in an Elizabeth Seton hospital, placed in her orphanage in NY until the age of three and educated by her Sisters of Charity of NY until the age of eighteen, she, the Saint, has ALWAYS been with me. Closeness to a Saint also means that you easily recognize the devil and will usually be fighting him throughout life............The best part of this story for me was the hilarity of how the 'sinful' brother in law was so petrified by the roof caving in that he never returned to that room again............
What?
What?
@@ScottAllen5568 what is wrong with you boy
?
I'm so glad I listen to these Priests..I'm back to Confessions after years of being away, saying prayers like Rosary and getting to Mass, spending time in front of the Blessed Sacrament
When someone wakes up at 3 a.m. is another PETFECT time to say Divine Mercy!
the devil may "claim" all he wants all hours of the day were made by God, just stay in grace ;)
Yeah i always struggle to wake up at 3am for divine mercy chaplet.. oftentimes i am late😬😬😬🙏✝️
I get woke up almost every night at 300 and say divine mercy, so that part kind of freaked me out
Wonderful and informative interview
One night I had terrible nightmares of a demonic nature after attending a pro-life March, I woke up around 3am. I got the prayer cards and rosaries from the event, and took them to bed with me. I prayed myself back to sleep. I never knew 3am was significant.
It may be possible that God wants us to pray at 3 am to help those who are under attack by the Enemy
Utterly fascinating man, his stories and explanations are amazing! I am not a follower of any religion but see all that he talks about in the word around us. It's frightening how so many people are just totally unaware of anything outside their small, compact lives and only seem to live by the tenets of the media. Terrifying. Love and Light x francie
What a pearl Fr John! His teaching style is truly God inspired: it’s true, clear, fun, and it sticks 🌿
Yes indeed!
Love Father John. He's awesome.
EXCELLENT INTERVIEW. You chose an excellent example of the true church. Way to go guys. Would love to see more like this.
I'm now a follower of your channel
I’ve watched the 3part audio version twice already but having it in video is so much better!
His voice is so soothing & calming. And when he says “okayyy” I feel like we are having a conversation at a coffee shop lol very knowledgeable! Great video
Fr John had me booked within minutes of the start of his interview. Loved it...sad when it ended. He has so much charisma, his lovely sort voice. Very special Father. No fear..but highly alert. God bless him.🙏
This is a Great conversation and this Priest seems like a very intelligent and gentle Man. My Grandfather died when I was 14 years old and I missed him terribly as he was always very kind to me and had a great sense of humor. When my little Sister had her 1st child my Grandfather returned in Spirit and protected my Nephew from his dad who was an emotionally abusive asshole. None of us knew what was going on really until my Sister asked my Nephew who he was talking to and playing with in the back yard and he replied JOHN. When asked for a description of JOHN, my Nephew described our Grandfather perfectly, a Man he had never laid eyes on much less known. One of the points this Priest touched on which I believe people don’t realize is the Spirit world is all around us at all times and the warring between good and evil never stops. This Priest is so well educated and it’s a shame most people who work in Churches these days don’t seem to be. I’m an old time Conservative Lutheran and was educated by Benedictine Nuns and attended Mass every Friday at school even though I wasn’t required to as a non Catholic. The reason I went was because one Nun who taught Psychology and Humanities was so kind and never talked down to the non Catholic kids or differentiated between different religious beliefs among students. As Christians I believe we must all Honor each other’s chosen Religious practices and stand together as The Family Of God. I believe there are benefits to be had from each and every sect of Christianity and we are fools not to accept what each denomination has to offer. It’s my Prayer that God Bless this Man in his work and each and every one of us.
We are not fools. The Catholic Church is the true church of Jesus Christ. You are being deceived out of convenience.
I just found your channel today and I've been listening almost nonstop to several of your interviews. This particular interview is far and beyond one of the most useful I've come across. Father John is a fascinating man and may God bless him and you gents for the light you have shared.
Thanks for checking out the channel. We hope you stick around!
Great interview. I would love to see him back on your show.
Yes!!! Our church went on Pilgrimage to Ommeramagau to see the Passion Play... it was awesome! The whole thing is in German but even so the music alone (and they give you a book with English translation), was so beautiful it had me in tears.
Thank you for doing this interview. I personally am going through some struggles and am looking for some answers. I grew up southern baptist but find myself searching more and more outside of it. I know God is real and I know he has all the power. I just feel lost lately and am looking for spiritual help. Watching this helps me remember that God is in control and he put this video in front of me so that I can help my kids with their struggles. Thank y'all and thank God! I am so grateful for His love!
😊😊❤❤
He is so well spoken and articulate on explaining this complex subject. Thank you!
This is an EXCELLENT & IMPORTANT interview.♥️
Thank you to the good Father & to you gentlemen who put this together.
God bless each of you & your precious families. 💗
God bless all. 💗
Thank you for interviewing this inspiring priest. Thanks for sharing. You're doing great work. God bless you all.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This has to be the best interview and explanation on exorcism and the methods the enemy uses to get control of our lives. Thank you for posting and God Bless you all and your families.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have the totally same philosophy about horror genre movies. I don’t watch it because it falsely glorifies evil and gives them power they do not have. God bless this Priest for speaking the truth.
I’ll never forget my 2 year old son freaking out while we were preying for my cuz who took his own life. He kept screaming saying there was a monster by the stares. Like true panic.
This is really interesting and informative, he’s a great narrator regarding his experiences
Father John is amazing!!! I get what he is saying because of my background. I’ve converted to Catholicism recently. Everything he is speaking about is the absolute truth. He is a very holy man.
What did you convert from?
This is my third listening and I still find this conversation extremely fascinating. Well done lads. Well done Father John.
Appreciate the comment!
This was amazing, as a lapsed Catholic due to bad things happening around me growing up, I truly do believe that the devil walks amongst us…though lapsed if I am visiting a city I always go and bless my self in a Catholic Church…but holy water and salt is an excellent second.
This was an absolut eyeopener .This is high quality You guys delivering us.Thank You
WOW! That was an eye opener! Thank you- for your work and words Father John
I “feel” like you have actually brought me out of my PTSD! At least it actually feels like it as I am experiencing such mental clarity and groundedness. I know that anyone watching this grows and learns and they grow spiritually in faith as well because this subject is what brought me back to God, Jesus and the Holy Ghost- watching haunted house series. I became clear bout evil, so now there has to be God. Such a pleasure🫶🏼O learned so much I had to start writing it down!! ❤
Thank you and God bless you too🙏🏼🕊️😇👈🏻✝️
Thanks for watching. Glad it was valuable for you.
Wow! This was good and the prayer at the end was definitely needed.
Really eye opening. I can really listen to him for hours. Have him on more.
I love listening to this man, he's so calm but hilarious sometimes too. May God bless him 😊
This Exorcist is exremely knowledgeable and matter of fact and interesting very good God Bless and protect him
Fantastic discussion!! Makes me want to go back to church, I’ve learned so much from Father John!! Really enlightened my understanding of the spirituality and how to fortify my faith. 🙏
Excellent!!! there’s no one who understands these things like a good man who is a priest and understands these things of a spiritual nature …. This man truly understands , I’m very grateful for his wisdom on all these matters
The demonic hour part, mine was around 2am onwards before 4am. This was because someone was using black magic to subdue colleagues. We all had some "visitation", strange things happened, pain lots of body pain. Eventually I asked many people to pray for us, it goes on and off but whenever we feel he went to visit these mediums for help, it starts all over. We are still trying to fight it. What amazes me he gets away with it. I hope God avenge us for all the damage done.
Read my Blessed Prayer, #OUTLOUD 🙏
Please pray for their conversion...
Thank you so much Fr John. I have learnt alot and now understand the power of the holy water and salt. For sure, knowledge is power and I appreciate the education you have given me today. Text from Zambia central Africa 🌍
This interview was fascinating, highly recommend to watch. Glory to God. 🙏
