![Cardinal Fernandez’ Unbalanced Pastoral Strategy [Ralph Martin]](/img/n.gif)
I ran away for 3 years , I’ve come back this week . Let’s roll up our sleeves . Thank God .
Keep speaking as you are, which is of truth!! The Holy Spirit is using you...God Bless You!
I'm never leaving the church either. Has running away from problems ever worked? No. Has running away from problems made problems worse? YES.
We were put in this time for a reason. This is a time for more great Saints to be formed.
Through the intercession of our Blessed Mother Mary STAND and FIGHT.
Amen thank you I needed to hear this 🙏🏼🕊️✝️🥰🙏🏼
Just this morning I thanked God for Ralph and everyone involved with Renewal Ministries for the help, strength and clarity of message that we need to persevere. What a blessing to know that we are not alone.
You're always a source of gentle inspiration Ralph, may God in His Mercy always bless and sustain you and all your wonderful work.
I will stay with my parish as long as they stay true to the Word. If I ever heard our pastor condone same-sex relationships I would have to leave and find a different parish. I do find it disturbing that priests and bishops who promote that heresy aren't dealt with but that is beyond my control. I will continue to pray for the Church and control those things I can control.
Thanks Ralph for your great service to the Lord and to all Christians.
Thank you Dr. Martin. I met you at Steubenville University in Ohio in the 1980s while on retreat there. Everything you have said is so true and I thank you for all the years you have spoken up to help others understand what is going on in our faith. If you remember the prophecies of Blessed Ann Catherine Emmerich, she had a vision of a church being built without the Holy Spirit and without God’s blessing, of course. I believe that in her visions she was speaking about the times that we are in right now. The only comfort we can take is in the sacred heart of Jesus and Mary. We need to pray our rosary., Chaplet of Divine Mercy and help those who do not know about all that is taking place within our beautiful church and faith. May God bless you for your hard work and your diligence and preaching the truth. Trish P Wilkes-Barre, PA.
I just want to add that it’s not by chance that we are living in this time of crisis in the Church. In God’s providence, He has allowed each one of us to endure this. O happy fault! Praise be to God that we have been given this opportunity! Don’t be afraid, cling to Him!
Thank You Dr Ralph. I Love the Traditional One Holy Catholic Church, and I'm always Praying For
Pope Francis and The One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church.
Yes so True Dr Ralph, We Definitely are in a Crisis of Truth....so important to Pray to The HOLY SPIRIT for Guidance.
All I know is, "there is no confusion with ABBA GOD OUR FATHER...
HE is Crystal Clear. And I know a Greater Good will Come About, Because GOD is Renewing The Face of The Earth....And "GOD'S Ways Are Not Our Ways!"
GOD Bless Dr Ralph and Everyone at Renewal Ministeries. 🕊️🙏❤️🙏
⭐✨✨✨
It’s strange how as a Protestant, I’m totally on board with your frustration. However, one thing you said, the Lord IS in charge. Always. No matter what.
The Pope’s statement about getting messy is unfortunately it’s proving true and messy to me is confusing which can lead to chaos. Sadly, we know who writes the script for chaos. We need to pray and offer sacrifices for Pope Francis’s conversion to clarity and truth as well as our own. May God have mercy on us all
DR.MARTIN YOU ARE THE VOICE OF REASON THANK-YOU.
Our Lady has requested that we start prayer cenacles and families pray every night together and to say the rosary to preserve and strengthen our faith -- Pass the word
Let’s all step up praying our Lady’s Rosary, our greatest weapon 📿💕🙏
The Church is to preach a deep personal relationship with Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit
I believe Our Lady will destroy all heresy, but damage is being done. I appreciate you sounding the alarm. We need people like you to DEFEND the church, not just everyone holding the line in our marriages, with our children, and in our individual apostolates. As Knights of the Immaculata, we need to fight with Our Lady
I’m in the church forever.
I'll never leave the Catholic Church!
“In the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph” Blessed Mother
Thank you so much Ralph for your wisdom and insight. Ave Maria!
I reread A Crisis in the Church after watching your last video, ..”clear where we are being led”. I recommend your book to everyone.
Nothing is permanent all things are passing, Jesus I trust in you.
Thanks, Dr Martin, very much. Many of us listeners sincerely appreciate your very balanced and logical, yet forthright defense of the Teachings of the Church. I too think that we're in for a very bumpy ride, but your admonition to not forget that Christ is in charge helps more than you know. Knowledge is indeed power. The more we are armed with understanding of the Catechism, the more we know who we can reliably follow.
I can't believe this is happening to our dear church...😢
This video should go viral in social media ❤.
God bless you 🙏
Totally agree with you Ralph. Urgent prayers required .
“Most precious blood of Jesus Christ save us and the whole world” 🙏
I have the utmost respect for Ralph's perspective and insight on the current situation in the Church. We must continue to hear scholars, such as Dr. Martin, to fully understand the consequences of what is happening and being proposed to educate ourselves on how the Church can and will be affected.
We simply cannot take the Scarlett O'Hara approach and 'think about it tomorrow'. Knowledge is power and we must be spiritually and intellectually prepared for anything.
Thank you Dr. Martin for giving it to us without sugar coating. One question. Regarding Amoris Latitsia, in responding to a question from the bishops of Buenos Aries who asked if their interpretation that those in adulterous marriages could, in fact, receive Holy Communion, Francis responded yes, that theirs is the ONLY correct interpretation , and later ordered that his response to their inquiry be added to the magisteriam of the Church. How does that not qualify as teaching official error?
Thanks. So much. We need your clarity!
God is in control. I feel we are all being drawn together for a purpose. There will be opportunity for those who are living in sin to witness our faith, change. In the process the faithful will be persecuted.
We Must always see the Truth! Even if it hurts...Never be Afraid!
Reading the Bible is a great remedy. I also have often read the didache and it’s provided much clarity. It’s short. There’s videos on YT
The Bible is Clear! Any deviation to What God said about Sin is just that deviation! What God called an Abomination is Still an Abomination. Stay Strong brothers and sisters for our Redemption draws near! God bless you brother and your ministry!
Dr Martin,
I listened to the first message, and I completely agreed with you. I was humbled by your sincerity and visible emotion.
IMO, there was nothing to fear in what you said - only a clarion call as from a prophet. I thought the message was to be ready - not to fear. I am with you knowing that the church, as Mary, is the new ark and will always be protected by our Lord and God, Jesus Christ.
Basically, I believe we should hold fast to scripture and tradition, and batten down the hatches!
God bless you. ✝️
Yes, you are correct that those of us who have know you and followed you and Renewal Ministries for years, do put a lot of weight behind your insights. Although hard words to hear, I am comforted that a trusted brother is seeing what I am (I needed this encouragement) and that you are holding tightly to the Truth and trusting Jesus to bring us through it. 🙏
If we leave ....where would we go ...Jesus is here In the Church the bride of Christ.
John 10:27 "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:" brings me much comfort with all the confusion going on in the world and especially in the Church. This is a time for each of us to discern. No matter what the pope, cardinals, bishops and especially our priests say, we need to discern it! If there is an inkling of doubt, then just maybe we are not hearing Jesus' voice. Another quote that gets me through this all is John 14:23; Jesus replied, "“Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them." Let's cancel out all the noise and tune our ears to our Lord!
God bless you Dr. Martin
A lot of questionable things which come from Pope Francis' decisions are becoming self-evident in their aims, and require a lot of mental gymnastics to justify. I appreciate your ministry and concern for the Truth
I started going back to church earlier this year and it’s been one of the best decisions of my life. I will never leave. Praise Lord Jesus; he always wins in the end!
I truly believe Renewal Ministries are the beacon of LIGHT, because Jesus is the Light of the world.
Amazing how Ralph patiently strengthens our faith and at the same time charitably denounces what is infiltrating the very sanctuary of the Church and of the Holy Faith. God bless him and the Renewal Ministries.
Thank you and God bless you for this 2nd part...clarity, truth is always your mission.
We appreciate that with your yrs of expertise and your love of God and His church.🙏

Our churches need to increase prayer services in the church, Eucharist Adoration daily and rosary, fasting, to build up strength of the community. Daily spiritual growth is essential for the people to grow stronger spiritually.
God bless you abundantly Ralph.....thank you for your truth, your wisdom.....for explaining everything so clearly and for reminding us the Lord is with us in all of it....Jesus is always in charge!!! Please keep your videos coming, as they bring hope!!! Praying for you!!!
How do reconcile the pope being the "right pope ".. but at the same time taking the catholic church down this path he is leading the flock?
Thank you Dr Martin 🙏, Amen to Jesus being in control 🙏 Praise the name of Jesus. May the Holy Spirit continue to strengthen and encourage you Dr Martin 🙏 ❤
Let us pray.
Thank You Ralph
May we all continue to have dialogue with each other!
Thank you Ralph for being our Moses of today leading us in the darkness which will get darker. Be still & know that I am God. It is still HIS Story. As Moses stepped forth in faith holding onto God in His Word the walls of water separated to bring them to safe land so it will be with us & our Priests & good Bishops too who do not abandon the truth. God is with us. God is in this story. He is always with is, are we with Him ❤ just yesterday in adoration He put the following words to me: My child, come weep with Me at the abandonment of my beloved ones especially My consecrated sons who when trials & difficulties come, rather than seek courage & trust, abandon Me. So we make reparation for all who have abandoned Him & will, pray for the courage & that trust needed for many consecrated souls & us the lay faithful who will accompany & not abandon Our Lord through this cross to the glory of the new Kingdom to come awaiting us, He has prepared for us His remnant. During this time His power manifest in us to the world to help Him save souls. Another word:
You do the loving I do the saving.
And:
You be My Lips:
by living truth & being love, a beautiful intimate relationship with Him, in His Word, adoration, in our interior life with Him, & in our Blessed Mothers arms of the rosary, which this lifestyle of truth & love staying under the protection of the commandments & Sacraments will be the attraction for others to Him in us, He is our faith, He is our joy...our protection ps 91, in all circumstances, we are in safety like a babe knowing we are in ABBA Father's arms. This has to happen for the Kingdom to come, we pray for in the Our Father.
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you, not as the world gives do I give. Do not let your hearts be troubled nor let them be afraid.
Right on… Right to the point…
You would have to have your head in the sand not to see it. We are called to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.
We can not be obedient to sin.
We thank Renewal Ministries for guiding the ship in the storm. Jesus is in the boat with us. I'm not ready to walk on water like Peter, but I'm trying to keep my eyes on Jesus and the positive things I see he is doing in his people, his church and even in me. To be honest, I only fear when I look at the storm. Thank you again.
Many thanks for your wonderful ministry and your words of encouragement in such challenging times
Thank you Ralph. Prayer and listening to Jesus in our hearts never allows us to wander very far from the truth. Even when there is confusion God reaches out and guides his children.
God's blessings upon you and your ministry ✝️we give thanks to God for you 🙏🏻
Crisis of Truth was an amazing book which was unquestionably Providential.
The great Jesuit Fr. John Hardon, regarding Jesus' promise that the Gates of Hell would conquer the Church, said there is no guarantee the Church will survive in every town, every diocese, or every country."
God's got this!
Thank you, Dr Martin. I agree with what you said regarding the direction the leaders are trying to lead us. We must prepare for tough times ahead. We must drink from the water that Our Lord gives us that it will be in us a fount of living water that wells up unto everlasting life.
O Holy Spirit, enlighten our intellect, strengthen our will, to live the true Catholic Faith.
I can’t tell you how much these videos mean to us( the faithful). God bless!
Thank you, Dr Martin, for teaching with clarity, even when our church leaders do not.
Thank you Dr. Martin for speaking the Truth!
God bless!
I see it too Ralph. I totally agree with you. Watching your video confirmed my thoughts. God bless you and you speaking the truth and keep going.
“…and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” - Հիսուս Քրիստոս / Hisus K’ristos
thank you and God bless, we all need to be vigilant and on the lookout for wolves in ship's clothing
Thank you, Ralph - God's Blessings! This might be a Help to Some of us: I asked Our Lord HOW to PRAY for Pope Francis, and the Spirit whispered, "PRAY THAT HE BECOMES THE SAINT HE WAS CALLED TO BE."!!
I came back to the church one year ago anyway, but this situation your are describing is terribly confusing to me at times. I consol myself by educating myself with old books. Maybe I will check our your book too.
Praise God! I’m a revert as well. All of Ralph’s works are solid. What he is explaining here is a worldwide cultural phenomenon that just so happens to have its tentacles in the Church.
I agree with your solution. Older stuff. I remember one year into my reversion- I read a lot and it wasn’t at all a burden. I was thirsty.
I’d love to give you some suggestions if you guide me in what interests you at this moment. Peace bro
I hear you loud and clear Dr. Martin!
Amen!
God bless you. Thank you for speaking up. We need to have our eyes open and be ready for whatever comes.
Keep running the Race of Fairh! Blessings to you, Ralph, Peter, and Sr. Ann.
I was taught by Nuns for 12yrs. I HAVE PRAYED MY MOTHER'S ROSARY FOR 3O YESRS. MY CATHOLIC FAITH IS SO DEEP WITHIN MY SOUL. READING THE
DOUEY RHIMES BIBLE IS THE ONLY ONE I WILL READ.
I FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN IN THE DESERT FOR 40 YEARS. IT'S OK INJUST OFFER ALL THING UP TO MY HEAVENLY FATHER.
God Bless Ralph
I find solace in your analysis and the conclusions you offer. These videos help me so much. The statement of "widely communicated error" is right on the target. God bless you!
Thank you for these two videos.
AMEN!
Thanks Ralph
Thank You
God bless you Ralph for keeping the faith.. this is all disheartening... We all need to trust in Jesus and stay the course. When I get down about all this I look up and know where my real home is..
Isn't there a way of formerly correcting the Pope when he himself seems to be greatly contributing to all the confusion in the Church? Why isn't something definitive being done? I don't get it.
I watch your video's with great interest. I grew up as a catholic and have long been very active in it. I was active in the renewal in Belgium in Lovenjoel in 1974-1975. However, I growingly felt discomfort with was going on in the church, for several decennia. A parish priest who instructs not to talk about Jesus in a mass for the 50 th anniversary of the youth movement because moslims are attending. Parish priests who start their sermon by saying 'Don't worry, I am not going to bother you. I will keep it very short '. The very poor preachings in general in which the devine is dismissed. On top of that, there are many different opinions and explanations that the clergy holds regarding important thruths. Often I felt the vertical dimension lacking. I felt gradually drying up end very disappointed. So I finally looked for another church to be fed, where the gospel is being thought as should. And I feel very good at it. I don't advertise this. It is painful enough to state it. But sometimes this is the best solution for the wellbeing of the believer. The church is indeed in crisis and the ongoing developments can seriously harm people in their walk of faith. 😊
in control does not equal controlling. Thanks
Thank you, Ralph, for your wisdom and logical process of interpreting what's going on in the church at the Vatican and around the world. I've heard alarms going off from others over the years since Pope Francis became pope, but you have really "connected the dots." Let us fast and pray and keep hope! We were born for such a time as this. God is allowing these things to happen. May we be prepared for any cleansing or chastisement. Stay close to Our Lord! Pray, fast, and repent for our own sins and the sins of others. Thank you and God bless you, Ralph.
The wheat and the weeds (tares) are growing together in this age. Let them grow. At the time of harvest, the harvesters (angels) will collect the weeds in bundles and separate them out (Matt 13:24-33).
So much wisdom you have. Thanks so much!
Thank you.
Thank You God Bless 🙏🙏
Thank you. ❤
Your last episode heartened me as I trust your insight, which aligns with other Catholic voices I also trust. We need to know that the wolves are there, so we can be on guard. Thank you
Thank you Dr. Martin, for continuing to guide us through these trying times in the Church, as you did during the pandemic, and still do to help us navigate the secular Culture of Death, without losing our faith, and ultimately our souls.
The devil does not want your message of Truth to be disseminated either, and is stirring doubt and confusion even among those who follow your ministry. As we know, the same happened when Jesus was on this earth.
God bless and protect you, your colleagues, and your families. Our prayers are with you!
Incredible video
Thanks Ralf. Let’s stick to Peter’s ship; taking on water, but unsinkable.
Thank you, Ralph Martin! Thank you, Renewal Ministries!
God bless you Ralph!!!!!
Thank you for this information. I already see how God is protecting the Church by giving us such incredible holy, brave, smart and committed men like Raplh Martin, and many others. Also Our Lady Herself is telling us in Her messages what we must do and what to expect. Many hard years are ahead of us, we gotta get real about being followers of Jesus Christ. We must grow in love and it's only possible through suffering.
And we should also keep in mind that we are not called to save the church.... that's Christ's role as Head. We are to persevere and trust in Him... period! We must also take solace in the fact that as long as we speak and live the TRUTH, these people who continue to disobey God will answer for THEIR SINS. We will not be judged for their sins...
Thankyou Mr Martin . You are speaking Truth ,and people have to use their reason to understand what you are saying but I fear that most educated people i know bury their heads in the sand. They don't want to believe what is coming. We have to keep praying that we stand firm and defend the Faith. But we have to live the Faith in Truth and nothing less.
