Compunction is embedded in the Rosary when we say, "oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins and save us from the powers of hell..." The Rosary indeed is a weapon.
@ThisIsTurok1 I got the same problem, I got a family and do not want to masturbate want my flesh is sometimes taking over, I pray but I comes back, thanks to our Lord he picks us up when we fall.
Thank you for sharing. Me too. Please also pray for me. I am consecrated to Mother Mary and she has been praying for me, and God is healing me. Never give up
Prayer of holy souls is powerful indeed; however the souls in Purgatory do not have the ability to pray anymore. That's why we have to pray for them...
Amen, I am a griddle Catholic. I grew up in the 60 and 70. I have learned more about my faith in the last four years then in my entire lifetime. Thank you 🙏🏻

I lost compunction when everyone in my life rebuked me for having that "archaic" or "brutish" mindset. They made it impossible to practice this. pray for me and pray for my persecutors.
Something to think about : "Leading people" follow the zeitgeist. Zeitgeist is the Spirit of the Instant God's people follow the Heiliger Geist The Heiliger Geist is the Spirit of Eternity. The times and ways of "leading people" end. Every. Clicking. Second. ⏱️ God's people have eternity. 🌌 Choice is pretty easy, ...isn't it? 🎆
I was led to this while looking up why all of a sudden I can't pray the rosary without crying. And it's not just crying but it's accompanied with a feeling of deep sorrow for my sins and the sins of others. I didn't know it had a name. Edit: I wanted to add that while reading the comments I had no idea that this was a gift and much less a gift that is sought after so much. I praise God for giving me this grace!
CaptainShamrock66 Get a crucifix and have it blessed by a priest. Wear the Holy crucifix of our Lord Jesus Christ at all times, and whenever you are tempted, hold the crucifix with all your might, say the Hail Mary aloud. Do this as often as possible in Jesus' name, and Satan WILL FLEE. Great be your reward in Heaven. Also, receive the Holy Eucharist as often your are able to. God bless you, + the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. -Your Brother in Christ, Marcus.
Hail Mary, full of sorrows, the Crucified is with thee, Tearful art thou amongst women.and tearful is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of the Crucified, give us tears, crucifiers of thy Son now and the hour of our death. Amen!
Why do you pray to mary, Jesus said when you pray, that you are to pray to Our Father in Heaven and that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and Life, no one comes to the Father but Only through Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior, you can Only Pray to God through Jesus Christ, He is Our Only Mediater, He is the Only one We should be Praying through to Get to Our Father and He is who Saves us, by praying to Mary does not save us or anyone, because she is resting in the ground and is Saved through Jesus Christ, but she cannot hear you when you pray to her, just as anyone who is dead, cannot hear you, The Bible says Jesus called Mary (women) and never intended for Mary to be venerated, put on a pedestal, carted around as a statue on a float, burning incense to her and especially praying to her, Jesus Christ Our Lord is to be venerated, Worshipped, Praised and Pray Only to Him and We are to REPENT to Jesus (not a priest) and Truely Give Our Life to Jesus and be washed in HIS BLOOD, become ONE Body With Him, (Jesus is not a piece of bread and His blood is not on a pagan alter) His Death is how we receive Jesus Christ in Spirit and Truth, but you must Repent and be washed with Jesus's Blood in Spirit, Jesus said you must be Reborn, Not in the flesh, But in His Spirit (The Holy Spirit) Jesus is The Gospel of Truth and his Kingdom to Come. No religion, purgatory prayers, no statue, rosary, metal, scapular or any other trinketpriest, cardinal, bishop, pope or prayers to Mary, prayers to saints, prayers to nuns, no prayers to anyone, but to Our Lord Jesus Christ will ever reach Our Father in Heaven, not any of it will save you. We are to pray to God through Jesus Christ ONLY, because Jesus was the Perfect Sacrifice and died ONLY Once for Our sins andJesus is ALIVE in Heaven Sitting at the Right Hand of God. I used to be a faithful catholic for 45 years, until 5 years ago and My life was in shambles, i was in a pit, confused and thought i knew Jesus but i did not, the jesus that i was taught all my life through the ROMAN catholic church was a jesus i didnt truely know but in the midst of all my Pain and SIN and Hopelessness, idolotry, pagan worship, praying to dead people, depending on material things to save me The True Jesus layed upon me His Holy spirit, only then is when I Truley Came to Christ Jesus and I fell to my knees in Repentance and He washed me in His Precious Blood and gave me wisdom and decernment as to why the roman catholic church is the whore of Babylon that sittith with the golden cup of abominations as the Bible says, arrayed in purple and scarlet. If you are catholic and follow there ways, they are leading you like a sheep to the slaughter and your only hipe is to come out of her by trusting in Jesus Christ and reading his word (The Bible) following Him in truth as He speaks to you. I Pray to Jesus Christ, in His Mighty Name, that God shows you Truth, Amen
@Thanks be to God PROTESTANT IS PART OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH AND STEM FROM THEM, YOU SAY YOU PRAY TO MARY AND OTHERS WHO IS IN HEAVEN, THE ROMAN CHURCH HAS TOLD YOU THEY ARE IN HEAVEN, BUT GOD SAYS NO ONE HAS ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN BUT THE ONE WHO DESCENDED FROM HEAVEN AND THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS DONE THAT WAS JESUS CHRIST, SO MARY COULD NOT OF ASCENDED TO HEAVEN BECAUSE JESUS ONLY HAS, THE ROMAN CHURCH HAS TWISTED JESUS'S TRUE GOSPEL, JESUS DID NOT COME TO PROMOTE RELIGION, HE CAME TO SAVE US, TO SAVE US BY WHAT HE DID THROUGH HIS DEATH AND THROUGH HIS RESURRECTION, NOONE ELSE HAS DONE WHAT HE DID, NOONE ELSE IS WORTHY, JESUS CAME AS THE FACE OF GOD AS A MAN, AS AN EXAMPLE, NOONE ELSE COULD BE WORTHY, ALL GLORY, PRAISE AND HONOR GOES TO HIM, SO HOW CAN ANY GLORY, PRAISE OR HONOR GO TO MARY BECAUSE IF MARY GETS GLORY OR PRAISE OR HONOR THEN IT WOULD NOT ALL GO TO GOD, WHO IS JESUS IN THE FLESH, SO HOW CAN ANY GO TO MARY, SHE WAS BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO CARRY JESUS IN HER WOMB, BUT SHE STILL GAVE ALL GLORY TO GOD, THE ROMAN CHURCH TEACHES PEOPLE THAT MARY WAS SINLESS, THAT SHE IS OUR MEDIATER RIGHT ALONGSIDE WITH JESUS, THAT SHE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN, THAT WE ARE TO PRAY TO HER AND PRAY THE ROSARY, ALONG WITH THE SAINTS THAT THE ROMAN CHURCH HAS CANONIZED BY THERE OWN MEANS, THEY TEACH PURGATORY AND ALL THE OTHER THINGS THAT GO AGAINST GOD THAT JESUS PREACHED WHEN HE WALKED THIS EARTH, THE ROMAN CHURCH TEACHES LIES AND SAYS THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS A PERSON MUST DO TO GET TO HEAVEN AND HOW WE ARE REBORN IN CHRIST JESUS, BUT JESUS SAYS OTHERWISE, JESUS PREACHED AGAINST THE ROMAN CHURCH, EVEN THE PHARISEES WHICH IS THE ROMAN CHURCH, THEY HAVE TWISTED GODS WORD AND THE GOSPEL OF TRUTH THAT JESUS SPOKE, THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GET TO OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN, FOR A PERSON TO PUT THERE COMPLETE TRUST IN JESUS, TO BELIEVE WHO HE IS AND WHAT HE DID FOR US AND FOR US TO REPENT AND GIVE ALL TO HIM, WE MUST GO THROUGH JESUS FOR ALL OUR NEEDS, OUR HOPE, ALL OUR STRENGTH, BECAUSE HE SAYS HE IS THE ONLY WAY, HE IS ALL TRUTH AND HE IS THE ONE WHO GIVES NEW LIFE TO US, RELIGION WILL NOT SAVE A PERSON, RITUALS WILL NOT SAVE US PURGATORY IS NOT REAL AND WILL NOT SAVE US, THE PAPACY WILL NOT SAVE US, ONLY JESUS CHRIST WILL SAVE US, HE IS OUR ROCK, HE IS THE CORNERSTONE OF TRUTH THAT THE APOSTLES TAUGHT FROM, PETER WAS A FAITHFUL SERVANT JUST AS THE OTHER APOSTLES WERE BUT BECAUSE GOD REVEALED TO PETER WHO JESUS REALLY IS (THE SON OF GOD) DOES NOT MAKE PETER SOME KIND OF POPE WITH A LABEL THAT THE ROMAN CHURCH MADE HIM OUT TO BE, POPE, CARDINAL, BISHOP, ETC. WAS MAN MADE FROM THE PAPACY WITH THERE ARROGANCE OF SOME KIND OF AUTHORITY AND POWER AND THERE OUTWARDLY WAYS, THE ONLY AUTHORITY COMES FROM JESUS CAUSE HE SACRIFICED HIMSELF FOR OUR SALVATION, THE PAPACY/ROMAN CHURCH TEACHES TRADITIONS OF MEN AND FALSE CELEBRATIONS AND FEASTS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH GODS HOLY DAYS OR GODS HOLY FEAST DAYS, THE ROMAN CHUCH HAS INTERTWINED UNRIGHTIOUS DOCTRINE INTO THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, THE TRUE GOSPEL, NOT THE ROMAN CHURCHES GOSPEL AND THEY HAVE TAUGHT LIES TO THE PEOPLE AND HAVE SHED THERE HOPE IN HOW JESUS IS THE ONLY ONE WHO SAVES US, BUT THEY TEACH THAT THERE ARE MANY WAYS AND MANY TASKS THAT MUST BE DONE AND MANY PEOPLE THEY MUST FOLLOW, ETC. BUT JESUS SAID HE IS THE WAY, SO WHY WOULD THERE BE ALL THESE OTHER WAYS TO BE SAVED WHEN THERE IS ONLY JESUS THAT IS THE WAY, WE MUST PRAY TO GOD THROUGH JESUS, NOT MARY, JESUS SAID HE IS THE ONLY MEDIATER TO GET TO GOD, WE PRAY TO OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN BUT WE PRAY ONLY THROUGH CHRIST JESUS, I THANK GOD EVERY DAY THAT HE TOOK ME OUT FROM AMOUNG THE ROMAN CHURCH, THEY ARE WHO KEPT ME FROM THE TRUTH AND HELD ME IN CHAINS WITH MANY LIES, THEY KEPT ME FROM WORSHIPPING GOD THE WAY HE COMMANDS US TO AND THAT IS THE ONE WAY THAT JESUS TAUGHT US TO WORSHIP, IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH, NOT THE WAY THE PAPACY HAS TAUGHT, WHY WOULD A PERSON WANT TO STAY IN A RELIGIOUS SYSTEM THAT HAS UNBELIEVABLE UNRIGHTIOUSNESS, WITH THE HIGHEST RATE OF HOMOSEXUALITY, DONE BY PRIESTS, CARDINALS, BISHOPS AND OF COURSE POPES AND THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT THE CONGREGATION PUT THERE TRUST IN TO TEACH THEM, THE ROMAN CHURCH HAS KILLED THE MOST PEOPLE IN HISTORY ALONG WITH THE ONES AFFILIATED WITH THEM, THE PAPACY IS RICH FROM THE PEOPLE WHO FOLLOW THEM, THEY ARE INTHRONED WITH GOLD AND GEMS AND WEAR THE FINEST CLOTHS, JESUS CAME AS A KING WHEN HE WALKED THIS EARTH, BUT HE NEVER LOOKED LIKE A KING OR DRESSED LIKE A KING, HE WAS NOT RICH LIKE A KING SO WHY DOES THE PAPACY THINK THEY CAN LIVE LIKE KINGS WITH SOME KIND OF AUTHORITY. AND LIVE AS A WORLDLY KING THAT IS THE OPPOSITE OF HOW JESUS LIVED, CAUSE JESUS IS OUR EXAMPLE. CAUSE THE PAPACY IS A HORRIBLE EXAMPLE OF WHAT JESUS SPOKE OF AND HOW JESUS LIVED AND THE ROMAN CHURCH DISHONOR GOD BY HONORING MARY AND HONORING THEMSELVES, ACTING AS THOUGH THEY ARE THE TRUE CHURCH, BUT THE TRUTH CHURCH IS THE FOLLOWERS THAT ONLY FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST AND THE ONES WHO FOLLOW THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUS, NOT THE TWISTED GOSPEL OF MANY LIES TAUGHT BY THE PAPACY, JESUS SAID THE TRUE CHURCH ARE THE TRUE FOLLOWERS THAT ONLY FOLLOW HIM, NOT A RELIGION, NOT RITUALS AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS BEFORE JESUS CAME, WHEN ANIMALS WERE TO BE SACRIFICED FOR FORGIVENESS OF SIN BUT WHEN JESUS CAME , HE WAS THE ONE TRUE SACRIFICE FOR THE FORGIVNESS OF SIN, SO WE COUNT ON HIM TO SAVE US, NOT THE ROMAN CHURCH WHO KEEPS US FROM PERSONALLY KNOWING THE GREASTEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED FOR ALL TIME, OUR SAVIOR, OUR ONLY MEDIATER TO GOD, OUR HOPE, JOY, OUR CONFIDENCE AND IF JESUS IS OUR CONFIDENCE, THEN HOW CAN WE. PUT OUR CONFINDENCE AND FOLLOW A CHURCH SYSTEM THAT PREACHES ANOTHER GOSPEL APART FROM THE GOSPEL THAT JESUS TRULY PREACHED, THE ROMAN CHURCH PREACHES THAT A PERSON MUST FOLLOW THEM OR THEY WILL BE CONDEMMED AND CANNOT BE SAVED, BUT JESUS SAYS TO FOLLOW HIM AND BELIEVE AND YOU WILL BE SAVED, JESUS SAYS DONT GO BY MANMADE THINGS, TRADITIONS OF MEN OR FOLLOW THE UNRIGHTIOUSNESS THAT COMES ABOUT FROM THEM, JESUS SAID FOLLOW RIGHTIOUSNESS THAT COMES ABOUT THROUGH HIM ONLY. IF ANYONE IS TRULY SEEKING TRUTH, JESUS SAYS HOLD TO EVERY WORD THAT COMES FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD, THE BIBLE, THE WORD OF GOD SHOULD BE YOUR SOURCE OF TRUTH AND THE BOOK OF ROMANS, THE BOOK OF HEBREWS, THE BOOK OF MATHEW AND OTHER BOOKS GIVE US HOPE IN JESUS AND HOPE IN OUR SALVATION AND HOW JESUS'S BLOOD IS HOW WE ARE CLEANSED, NOT BY AN IMAGINARY PLACE CALLED PURGATORY WITH NO HOPE IN IT, BECAUSE GOD THE ROMAN CHURCH MAKES A PERSON GO BY WHAT THEY SAY, MORE THAN WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT READING THE WORD OF GOD WITH CONFIDENCE AND HE WILL GIVE US WISDOM, MY EYES WERE BLIND ALL MY YEARS IN THE ROMAN CHURCH, BUT IN AN INSTANT GOD GAVE ME SO MUCH HOPE IN JESUS CHRIST THAT THE ROMAN CHURCH COULD NEVER COMPARE TO THAT AND MY BLINDNESS WAS LIFTED FROM ME AND I NEVER TURNED BACK TO THE ROMAN CHURCH, I AM JUST A FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST AND I CAN DO NOTHING, BUT THROUGH CHRIST JESUS WHO STRENGTHENS ME AND I SERVE HIM IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH, JESUS REVEALS ALL TRUTH TO THOSE WHO SEEK IT AND SEEK HIM 😀 WHAT LOVE AND MERCY OUR GREAT GOD HAS FOR US, FOLLOW JESUS, NOT A FALSE CHURCH THAT IS IN VAIN, IN JESUS'S NAME THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES I PRAY THAT GOD WILL. LEAD MANY AWAY FROM THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH BECAUSE WE ARE NOT TO UNITE WITH A CHURCH THAT HAS UNSOUND DOCTRINE AND WE ARE NOT TO BE ONE WITH THEM, WE ARE TO BE ONE WITH CHRIST. PEACE TO ALL AMEN
Albert Einstein said “Persistence is the most powerful force on the earth it can move mountains” Being persistent with the Rosary, in whatever matter you are struggling with will move mountains, I can testify to this.
Almighty and most Merciful God, Who, to quench the thirst of Thy people, madest a fountain of living water to spring out of a rock, draw from our stony hearts the tears of compunction, that, effectually bewailing our sins, we may, through Thy mercy deserve to obtain Thy pardon for them, through our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen." (Collect for the Gift of Tears. From the Roman Missal.)
I want to be a consecrated virgin but since childhood I’ve had the habitual sin of impurity. I used to cry so much after my son but now I’m so lukewarm, though I WANT to pray and cry. I hope Mass will start again soon so me and everyone can receive the Eucharist with grace and not be spiritually sick anymore
Been down that road. Nothing in our society honors purity. In fact, it’s seen as weird. God is not closed. Go to him in sincerity and watch father Chad Rippengers vids on spiritual warfare. While renouncing your sin, you can bind all demonic spirits attacking your imagination and emotions. Use your sacramentals such as Holy water, blessed salt etc. sprinkle and bless yourself and home. I am single and pray to Our Lady that she intercede and I be given graces of humility, chastity and obedience. The devil hates all of these things. If you feel an immediate lifting of obsessive thoughts, be sure it’s demonic. The lukewarmness you feel is acclimating to the sin. You’re tired and giving up and giving in. The devil is wearing you down. It’s not easy, but all of Heaven fights for you! God bless!
It could be an intellectual problem like in my case, once you read some stuff and clarify what purity really is and why it is so important then you dont have strange feeling about celibacy anymore but you feel blessed with it. I think you have that problem, maybe Im wrong, but I think you dont have literature that you need to sort those things out, like in mind you dont understand on what level you need to close yourself for lust since you think theres some benefit and good in it. Im sorry if Im being vague, you can write me your opinion
The look of Jesus , as he's led away, upon Peter in the courtyard who has denied him moves my ♥ heart to contrition. Artwork supports your message Father.
All I ever heard as a protestant, accept Jesus as your personal Savior and it's all good. And when they shall say peace and safety then sudden destruction cometh upon them. Thank you Father for the Church.
I need your Word to abide in my soul and broken heart and injured spirit , to heal them, my GOOD GOD!! Have mercy, for I am a sinner incapable of healing a nail or a hair in my body , but only You God Can bring healing and salvation to my life ❤️ Lord, have mercy, I am a sinner...Amen
If you see this comment, please pray for me. I have struggled with masturbation for 8 years and have never been able to really break free from it. Some days are harder than others.
I confess to ALMIGHTY GOD, and to you my brothers and sisters, that I have sinned through my own fault, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do. Through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault… And I ask the Blessed Mary, ever Virgin, all the angels and Saints, and you my brothers and sisters to pray for me to the LORD OUR 🤍GOD. 🕯🕯🕯
How to obtain compunction (tears): 1. Pray for it. (St. Teresa took 20 years) 2. Meditate on The Passion of our lord. His wounds, his sorrows, our own lowliness, ingratitude that we have shown toward God, and the many things he did for us. Consider how our sins caused these wounds. 3. Think about your own future death. You will become contrite. What would it be like to die right now? If you do it, you will join St. Peter on the night of our lord's passion, causing us to weep those same solitary tears. Then we will cease to sin and nothing will be too hard for us.
I am embarrassed with who I am. I am a habitual sinner. I love humiliating my husband, recalling his dark past even when we agreed to burn it. I am a great sinner, too; but my husband never humiliated me. I pray to be like Doña Catalina, remorseful. I pray to have a humble heart like Mama Mary. Why do I find these so hard - and I get so frustrated then. I enjoy the pleasure of hurting my husband verbally, and then feel sorry for him and for what I have done after I see him either cry with surrender or rage in anger. I am helpless and maybe hopeless?
juris ponencia It’s called narcissism you need to be in control of others to say you enjoy it ....? You have to get to understand why you like to hurt others.....
You are not helpless and hopeless. May I encourage you to try and pray all 20-decades daily?? Call on Mama Mary most vigorously....visit her place in Heaven and let her rub off on you mightily! By the time you get a hang of it, if you choose to start this spiritual exercise, it shouldn't take you more than an hour or an hour, ten minutes tops to go through all 4 Major Mysteries. God bless.
If you picture yourself at each mystery and visualize being there, you are a witness to what you have done to Him by sin. Your sin. Your sin. Look at everyone as Christ.
" I'm thinking of becoming a new line of origin of descendents." I've had this thought and desire. Due to my non catholics parents and family but still......I have much pride to purge still.
Thank you Father for this wonderful homily the prayer that you ended with I knew that prayer it was in my mothers prayer book her prayer book was printed in 1929 and that very same prayer is one that was in there and it was at the end of every prayer that you say during Lent walking with Jesus and Mary to Calvary and at the end of each one of those prayers every day is that prayer that you just read at the end of your homily God bless you
Habitual sin stems from cowardiceness. For example, people would rather please the world in a crowd than please God standing alone. Satan makes everyone feel like friends. Satan often puts his own words in Gods mouth. He makes us fear him and hate God. So we choose him, and become hated by both. Take courage and don’t sin.
I feel great sorrow in my heart in relation to me having left the fire department. I'm not sure why, I need christs mercy so that my heart can stop feeling tormented. I'm in such despair that I don't know what to do.
Jason Villegas I think you should seek God and ask him for the holy Spirit and then seek the advice of a priest I think you will find peace that this is a wonderful time to pray for the world thru the rosary and to offer yourself to the Lord
It’s the 1st time I heard the word “compunction”. When I think of nuns, all I recall is the image of brutal school masters hitting students with a ruler in the hand. In the Medieval Times, women desire to be contrite, pure and virgin. Now it’s the exact opposite.
They were beautiful prayers! And I believe in compunction, however didn't some of the Saints just take it a little too far? God does not want us to harm ourselves, does he? He says in Scripture that he does not require sacrifice, but instead a contrite heart. Well, a contrite heart is indeed a heart of Tears!! But we must be careful not to overdo that. I tried to do that and it made me so miserable that I was unable to function. I don't believe that God would want that because it caused me to go into despair. But my heart indeed is a heart of Tears and it will be until I enter Heaven. I've been disabled for 20 years and and very isolated at times, so I believe this trial which seems endless, is my path to heaven! Because every moment am I day is spent clinging to the Cross of Christ! And I do offer it up for my sins, for the sins of my family, and for all sin! Does this mean I have compunction? Praise be the Holy Name of Jesus Christ!!
It makes me glad he used the name Isaias, a lot of traditional priest and laity use Isaiah, or Elijah etc I do much like Isaias and Elias etc sounds more Catholic
Ezekiel 18:24 24 “But if a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin and does the same detestable things the wicked person does, will they live? None of the righteous things that person has done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness they are guilty of and because of the sins they have committed, they will die.
Luke 17:1-4 17 And he said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin[a] are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come! 2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.[b] 3 Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, 4 and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
I don't think compunction is the best way to overcome faults or sins. I can go in more detail if asked, but I think positivity/perfect contrition is better than negativity/imperfect contrition for changing.
I beg The Most Holy Theotokos to ask Our Blessed Lord to completely and immediately evacuate Purgatory. Please Mama, please ask Our Blessed Lord to do so! Please!!
I have been praying the rosary, chaplet of St Michael, & the novena to St Jude still struggling. My question is am I faling in that I am giving in to free will? I am knocking, asking, seeking, where am I failing ?
Frances Bernard here. I like this. Except for all the assuming instead of givens while not worrying too much in insecurity about what might be going on behind a woman's eyes when competing with one and the mythologizing during politically correct prescribed Adam and Eve humility of which Saint Peter was often prone to before his friend in the holy spirit died for him and less often after too -- Just like the rest of us regardless of if each of us is Greek [or from some other ethnic background] Jew, male or female..
I can't be certain, but he sounds exactly like the priest at my parish. Fr. Michael Passo at Mater Misericordiae in Phoenix. Who also starts his homilies with "In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost".
I can understand that if one suffers you don’t blame it on God or Christ but to say that one calls upon suffering for oneself to prove to oneself that they love Christ is mere self absorption for better word that they wish to out do the Suffering of Christ to compare one’s own suffering to that of Christs suffering rather pompous I feel....God does not want us to suffer it comes about through circumstances. To say that one prayers to God for him to send down more suffering upon oneself is pretty useless...
Do you think that citizens of Nineveh enjoyed sitting in ashes and sackcloth? They suffered and did the penance. So yes, as long as our sufferings are not there to prove something... God can see our hearts and intentions.
@@cbooth151 I think June was directing to you to the background of the Rosary which is essentially one of the best means for us to meditate upon the mysteries of Our Lord's life, thus aiding in our salvation. It is obvious you don't understand the purpose of the Rosary from your assertion. Why would Christ need to meditate on His own mysteries? Why would the Apostles, first hand witnesses to His life, death and Resurrection need to meditate upon His life through the Rosary? It was for people centuries after, a tangible means of uniting ourselves to the life of Christ and giving glory to Him through honouring His Mother. It is a Tradition that has a Scriptural Basis (The Our Father, Invocation of the Trinity, Archangel Gabriel's greeting to Mary, Elizabeth's Greeting to Mary). Before you say "Scripture alone" ; explain to me how the early Church functioned in the years following Christ's Resurrection. They had no Scripture, no Bible to guide them; merely what they had been taught by Christ that they passed on to others (have a look at the Early Church Fathers or the document known as the Didache) - i.e. tradition. The "Hail Mary's" are Mary's Psalter and like the Psalms (www.rosarycenter.org/homepage-2/rosary/the-rosary-st-dominic/), are not intended glory to the or direct us to worship the Psalmist or Mary, but are designed to give all glory to God. We give honour to Mary (and you should too) for she was no ordinary woman, she was The "Woman", God's masterpiece of creation who He saw fit to call Mother. In growing closer to Mary, we hope that our souls too may "magnify" the Lord as perfectly as she did. Why should we honour His Mother? If an Archangel saw it worthy to greet Her with such reverence, what does that say for us.
@@MrVazza96 "I think June was directing to you to the background of the Rosary." Tell me, is the rosary based on Scripture? Can you think of any of Jesus' earliest followers using a rosary to what you call "to meditate upon the mysteries of Our Lord's life"? No, you can't. The rosary is nothing but a Catholic invention.
@@cbooth151 Hi, I think what is going on here is a divergence of Christian dogmatic beliefs. Based what you have, said am I right in inferring that you are a person who subscribes to the belief of sola scriptura? If so, then this discussion/debate will never be resolved mainly because many things that Catholics do are not found in the bible are are based on the traditions of the early Church. I agree the bible does not state or teach the praying of the rosary in the bible. However, if you are coming from a sola scriptura position, I would like to state that just because something is not expressly mentioned in the bible it does not mean that it is anti-biblical or contrary to it. There are many recorded instances in the bible where it was noted that Jesus taught things - however those teachings were never recorded - see Matt. 13:3; Mark 4:2, 33; 6:34; Luke 11:53; 24:15-16, 25-27; John 16:12; 20:30; 21:25; Acts 1:2-3 for some examples of this. What we need to understand about the Rosary is that it consists of two things 1)The vocal expression of formed prayer and 2) A meditation on the life of Christ. Many protestant denominations will teach that by praying the Rosary that Catholics are 'worshipping' Mary and using 'vain repetitions' to do so. At this point I must make it unambiguously clear that Catholics do not 'worship' Mary - most the Hail Mary prayer is taken directly from scripture and the last part is simply a petition asking her to pray for us. Secondly, the issue of the Rosary being a vain repetition - it is not. What Jesus was referring to here were the gentiles praying mindless babbles to their pagan gods. If Jesus did not wish for any Christian anywhere to repeat prayers then he would not have taught the Lord's Prayer/Our Father. Another point I would like to raise here is to challenge the idea that protestant denominations believe that Catholics believe Mary is a mediator just like Jesus. This could not be further from the truth. Catholic believe that by her nature as the Daughter of God the Father, the spiritual spouse of the Holy Spirit and Mother of the Son of God that she is a powerful intercessor - not a mediator. An intercessor is one who prays, petitions, or entreaties in favour of another. Only Our Lord Jesus Christ is Mediator per 1 Tim 2:5. I hope this helps you in you understanding of the Catholic way of life. While you may disagree any any or all of the points I have made, it is just more for information rather to spark a debate. God Bless .
+Free Speech lol IceCold (I was playing around with capitalizing letters to make that name) 😂 I know this is a late reply, but I'm sorry if my comment sounded rude before. I didn't mean to sound so blunt, I just didn't want someone to be creeped out by a word for the Holy Spirit, that's all. (I get creeped out by everything myself)
Compunction is embedded in the Rosary when we say, "oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins and save us from the powers of hell..." The Rosary indeed is a weapon.

Thank you for sharing. Me too. Please also pray for me. I am consecrated to Mother Mary and she has been praying for me, and God is healing me. Never give up
I say the rosary daily, and feel this is powerfully affecting my effort to become a better, holier man.
Offer up the Rosary for the Holy souls of purgatory and ask them to pray for your healing. The prayer of the Holy souls are powerful.
Christian Taveras Amen!
i agree with you
great advice ! It's power is incredible ..
Prayer of holy souls is powerful indeed; however the souls in Purgatory do not have the ability to pray anymore. That's why we have to pray for them...

Go back to it. And don't even mention it to anyone ok📿🙏
@Love God & Neighbor. That's nice although I wouldn't listen to them always.
Something to think about :
"Leading people" follow the zeitgeist.

God's people follow the Heiliger Geist
The Heiliger Geist is the Spirit of Eternity.

Praying for you.
I was led to this while looking up why all of a sudden I can't pray the rosary without crying. And it's not just crying but it's accompanied with a feeling of deep sorrow for my sins and the sins of others. I didn't know it had a name.
Edit: I wanted to add that while reading the comments I had no idea that this was a gift and much less a gift that is sought after so much. I praise God for giving me this grace!
Compunction means a holy hatred of our own sin, to sin no more.
Im seriously in need of help and your prayers to break my habitual sinning.
Have prayed for you.
Angelus Noon Thankyou, from the bottom of my heart.
Its a joy
CaptainShamrock66 Get a crucifix and have it blessed by a priest. Wear the Holy crucifix of our Lord Jesus Christ at all times, and whenever you are tempted, hold the crucifix with all your might, say the Hail Mary aloud. Do this as often as possible in Jesus' name, and Satan WILL FLEE. Great be your reward in Heaven. Also, receive the Holy Eucharist as often your are able to. God bless you, + the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. -Your Brother in Christ, Marcus.
Great advice Marcus. God bless you.
Hail Mary, full of sorrows, the Crucified is with thee, Tearful art thou amongst women.and tearful is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of the Crucified, give us tears, crucifiers of thy Son now and the hour of our death. Amen!
Why do you pray to mary, Jesus said when you pray, that you are to pray to Our Father in Heaven and that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and Life, no one comes to the Father but Only through Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior, you can Only Pray to God through Jesus Christ, He is Our Only Mediater, He is the Only one We should be Praying through to Get to Our Father and He is who Saves us, by praying to Mary does not save us or anyone, because she is resting in the ground and is Saved through Jesus Christ, but she cannot hear you when you pray to her, just as anyone who is dead, cannot hear you, The Bible says Jesus called Mary (women) and never intended for Mary to be venerated, put on a pedestal, carted around as a statue on a float, burning incense to her and especially praying to her, Jesus Christ Our Lord is to be venerated, Worshipped, Praised and Pray Only to Him and We are to REPENT to Jesus (not a priest) and Truely Give Our Life to Jesus and be washed in HIS BLOOD, become ONE Body With Him, (Jesus is not a piece of bread and His blood is not on a pagan alter) His Death is how we receive Jesus Christ in Spirit and Truth, but you must Repent and be washed with Jesus's Blood in Spirit, Jesus said you must be Reborn, Not in the flesh, But in His Spirit (The Holy Spirit) Jesus is The Gospel of Truth and his Kingdom to Come. No religion, purgatory prayers, no statue, rosary, metal, scapular or any other trinketpriest, cardinal, bishop, pope or prayers to Mary, prayers to saints, prayers to nuns, no prayers to anyone, but to Our Lord Jesus Christ will ever reach Our Father in Heaven, not any of it will save you. We are to pray to God through Jesus Christ ONLY, because Jesus was the Perfect Sacrifice and died ONLY Once for Our sins andJesus is ALIVE in Heaven Sitting at the Right Hand of God. I used to be a faithful catholic for 45 years, until 5 years ago and My life was in shambles, i was in a pit, confused and thought i knew Jesus but i did not, the jesus that i was taught all my life through the ROMAN catholic church was a jesus i didnt truely know but in the midst of all my Pain and SIN and Hopelessness, idolotry, pagan worship, praying to dead people, depending on material things to save me The True Jesus layed upon me His Holy spirit, only then is when I Truley Came to Christ Jesus and I fell to my knees in Repentance and He washed me in His Precious Blood and gave me wisdom and decernment as to why the roman catholic church is the whore of Babylon that sittith with the golden cup of abominations as the Bible says, arrayed in purple and scarlet. If you are catholic and follow there ways, they are leading you like a sheep to the slaughter and your only hipe is to come out of her by trusting in Jesus Christ and reading his word (The Bible) following Him in truth as He speaks to you. I Pray to Jesus Christ, in His Mighty Name, that God shows you Truth, Amen

WAS MAN MADE FROM THE PAPACY WITH THERE ARROGANCE OF SOME KIND OF AUTHORITY AND POWER AND THERE OUTWARDLY WAYS, THE ONLY AUTHORITY COMES FROM JESUS CAUSE HE SACRIFICED HIMSELF FOR OUR SALVATION, THE PAPACY/ROMAN CHURCH TEACHES TRADITIONS OF MEN AND FALSE CELEBRATIONS AND FEASTS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH GODS HOLY DAYS OR GODS HOLY FEAST DAYS, THE ROMAN CHUCH HAS INTERTWINED UNRIGHTIOUS DOCTRINE INTO THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST, THE TRUE GOSPEL, NOT THE ROMAN CHURCHES GOSPEL AND THEY HAVE TAUGHT LIES TO THE PEOPLE AND HAVE SHED THERE HOPE IN HOW JESUS IS THE ONLY ONE WHO SAVES US, BUT THEY TEACH THAT THERE ARE MANY WAYS AND MANY TASKS THAT MUST BE DONE AND MANY PEOPLE THEY MUST FOLLOW, ETC.

AND LIVE AS A WORLDLY KING THAT IS THE OPPOSITE OF HOW JESUS LIVED, CAUSE JESUS IS OUR EXAMPLE. CAUSE THE PAPACY IS A HORRIBLE EXAMPLE OF WHAT JESUS SPOKE OF AND HOW JESUS LIVED AND THE ROMAN CHURCH DISHONOR GOD BY HONORING MARY AND HONORING THEMSELVES, ACTING AS THOUGH THEY ARE THE TRUE CHURCH, BUT THE TRUTH CHURCH IS THE FOLLOWERS THAT ONLY FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST AND THE ONES WHO FOLLOW THE TRUE GOSPEL OF JESUS, NOT THE TWISTED GOSPEL OF MANY LIES TAUGHT BY THE PAPACY, JESUS SAID THE TRUE CHURCH ARE THE TRUE FOLLOWERS THAT ONLY FOLLOW HIM, NOT A RELIGION, NOT RITUALS AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS BEFORE JESUS CAME, WHEN ANIMALS WERE TO BE SACRIFICED FOR FORGIVENESS OF SIN BUT WHEN JESUS CAME , HE WAS THE ONE TRUE SACRIFICE FOR THE FORGIVNESS OF SIN, SO WE COUNT ON HIM TO SAVE US, NOT THE ROMAN CHURCH WHO KEEPS US FROM PERSONALLY KNOWING THE GREASTEST MAN WHO EVER LIVED FOR ALL TIME, OUR SAVIOR, OUR ONLY MEDIATER TO GOD, OUR HOPE, JOY, OUR CONFIDENCE AND IF JESUS IS OUR CONFIDENCE, THEN HOW CAN WE. PUT OUR CONFINDENCE AND FOLLOW A CHURCH SYSTEM THAT PREACHES ANOTHER GOSPEL APART FROM THE GOSPEL THAT JESUS TRULY PREACHED, THE ROMAN CHURCH PREACHES THAT A PERSON MUST FOLLOW THEM OR THEY WILL BE CONDEMMED AND CANNOT BE SAVED, BUT JESUS SAYS TO FOLLOW HIM AND BELIEVE AND YOU WILL BE SAVED, JESUS SAYS DONT GO BY MANMADE THINGS, TRADITIONS OF MEN OR FOLLOW THE UNRIGHTIOUSNESS THAT COMES ABOUT FROM THEM, JESUS SAID FOLLOW RIGHTIOUSNESS THAT COMES ABOUT THROUGH HIM ONLY. IF ANYONE IS TRULY SEEKING TRUTH, JESUS SAYS HOLD TO EVERY WORD THAT COMES FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD, THE BIBLE, THE WORD OF GOD SHOULD BE YOUR SOURCE OF TRUTH AND THE BOOK OF ROMANS, THE BOOK OF HEBREWS, THE BOOK OF MATHEW AND OTHER BOOKS GIVE US HOPE IN JESUS AND HOPE IN OUR SALVATION AND HOW JESUS'S BLOOD IS HOW WE ARE CLEANSED, NOT BY AN IMAGINARY PLACE CALLED PURGATORY WITH NO HOPE IN IT, BECAUSE GOD THE ROMAN CHURCH MAKES A PERSON GO BY WHAT THEY SAY, MORE THAN WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT READING THE WORD OF GOD WITH CONFIDENCE AND HE WILL GIVE US WISDOM, MY EYES WERE BLIND ALL MY YEARS IN THE ROMAN CHURCH, BUT IN AN INSTANT GOD GAVE ME SO MUCH HOPE IN JESUS CHRIST THAT THE ROMAN CHURCH COULD NEVER COMPARE TO THAT AND MY BLINDNESS WAS LIFTED FROM ME AND I NEVER TURNED BACK TO THE ROMAN CHURCH, I AM JUST A FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST AND I CAN DO NOTHING, BUT THROUGH CHRIST JESUS WHO STRENGTHENS ME AND I SERVE HIM IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH, JESUS REVEALS ALL TRUTH TO THOSE WHO SEEK IT AND SEEK HIM 😀 WHAT LOVE AND MERCY OUR GREAT GOD HAS FOR US, FOLLOW JESUS, NOT A FALSE CHURCH THAT IS IN VAIN, IN JESUS'S NAME THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES I PRAY THAT GOD WILL.

I want to be a consecrated virgin but since childhood I’ve had the habitual sin of impurity. I used to cry so much after my son but now I’m so lukewarm, though I WANT to pray and cry. I hope Mass will start again soon so me and everyone can receive the Eucharist with grace and not be spiritually sick anymore
Been down that road. Nothing in our society honors purity. In fact, it’s seen as weird. God is not closed. Go to him in sincerity and watch father Chad Rippengers vids on spiritual warfare. While renouncing your sin, you can bind all demonic spirits attacking your imagination and emotions. Use your sacramentals such as Holy water, blessed salt etc. sprinkle and bless yourself and home. I am single and pray to Our Lady that she intercede and I be given graces of humility, chastity and obedience. The devil hates all of these things. If you feel an immediate lifting of obsessive thoughts, be sure it’s demonic. The lukewarmness you feel is acclimating to the sin. You’re tired and giving up and giving in. The devil is wearing you down. It’s not easy, but all of Heaven fights for you! God bless!
I am sorry you have disappointed yourself. You are still loved by God. Praying for you, sister.
@@annamaj203 thank you
@@okimawilcox1550 thank you so much! God bless!
It could be an intellectual problem like in my case, once you read some stuff and clarify what purity really is and why it is so important then you dont have strange feeling about celibacy anymore but you feel blessed with it.
I think you have that problem, maybe Im wrong, but I think you dont have literature that you need to sort those things out, like in mind you dont understand on what level you need to close yourself for lust since you think theres some benefit and good in it.
Im sorry if Im being vague, you can write me your opinion

"..i will do my duty to God and man, send me.."

Thanks.
I asked someone to out there to please pray for me for compunction for I am a habitual liar
Thank you great sermon. Prayer for tears very touching to our very heart. Thank you
Wow! Blessed sermon. Thanks be to God.
Oh, deep word, compunction. 🤔 Definitely a good talk and sharing abt St. Teresa of Avila. 👍
Thank you Fr this priceless grace of truth to adopt and persevere this virtue in our Catholic Faith life.
I confess to ALMIGHTY GOD, and to you my brothers and sisters, that I have sinned through my own fault, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do. Through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault… And I ask the Blessed Mary, ever Virgin, all the angels and Saints, and you my brothers and sisters to pray for me to the LORD OUR 🤍GOD. 🕯🕯🕯
How to obtain compunction (tears):
1. Pray for it. (St. Teresa took 20 years)
2. Meditate on The Passion of our lord. His wounds, his sorrows, our own lowliness, ingratitude that we have shown toward God, and the many things he did for us. Consider how our sins caused these wounds.
3. Think about your own future death. You will become contrite. What would it be like to die right now?
If you do it, you will join St. Peter on the night of our lord's passion, causing us to weep those same solitary tears. Then we will cease to sin and nothing will be too hard for us.
I am embarrassed with who I am. I am a habitual sinner. I love humiliating my husband, recalling his dark past even when we agreed to burn it. I am a great sinner, too; but my husband never humiliated me. I pray to be like Doña Catalina, remorseful. I pray to have a humble heart like Mama Mary. Why do I find these so hard - and I get so frustrated then. I enjoy the pleasure of hurting my husband verbally, and then feel sorry for him and for what I have done after I see him either cry with surrender or rage in anger. I am helpless and maybe hopeless?
juris ponencia It’s called narcissism you need to be in control of others to say you enjoy it ....? You have to get to understand why you like to hurt others.....
You are not helpless and hopeless.
May I encourage you to try and pray all 20-decades daily?? Call on Mama Mary most vigorously....visit her place in Heaven and let her rub off on you mightily!
By the time you get a hang of it, if you choose to start this spiritual exercise, it shouldn't take you more than an hour or an hour, ten minutes tops to go through all 4 Major Mysteries.
God bless.
If you picture yourself at each mystery and visualize being there, you are a witness to what you have done to Him by sin. Your sin. Your sin. Look at everyone as Christ.
Lord, please help me to have compunction for my sins, in Jesus Christ's Holy Name. Amen 🙏
Seeing our filth and then compelling ones self to fight sin threw God's Word we will experience compunction in the Way.
Please put some of these on Spotify.
Great message! Compunction FTW!
Pray for me that I may have tears for the crucifix!!
Very good talk father.

It's weird how I've never heard a talk on 'compunction vs scrupulosity' ....
'Mini Vas"?
wow. kewl.
i struggle strongly with habitual swearing, just can't overcome it, too deeply rooted, real habit.
Devotion to the Holy Face is the antidote.
" I'm thinking of becoming a new line of origin of descendents."
I've had this thought and desire. Due to my non catholics parents and family but still......I have much pride to purge still.
So happy to find you Father, after audio sancto went bye bye.
Thank you Father for this wonderful homily the prayer that you ended with I knew that prayer it was in my mothers prayer book her prayer book was printed in 1929 and that very same prayer is one that was in there and it was at the end of every prayer that you say during Lent walking with Jesus and Mary to Calvary and at the end of each one of those prayers every day is that prayer that you just read at the end of your homily God bless you
pray the entire rosary with intention
Lord, please bless me with compunction ❤️
Habitual sin stems from cowardiceness. For example, people would rather please the world in a crowd than please God standing alone.
Satan makes everyone feel like friends. Satan often puts his own words in Gods mouth. He makes us fear him and hate God. So we choose him, and become hated by both.
Take courage and don’t sin.
Fear of vulnerability. My interpretation is that humans will do anything to not take accountability when pushed into a corner.
Omg !! This was just brilliant ....something i have never heard before
I feel great sorrow in my heart in relation to me having left the fire department. I'm not sure why, I need christs mercy so that my heart can stop feeling tormented. I'm in such despair that I don't know what to do.
Jason Villegas I think you should seek God and ask him for the holy Spirit and then seek the advice of a priest I think you will find peace that this is a wonderful time to pray for the world thru the rosary and to offer yourself to the Lord
You haven't left the fire department you are just putting out different fires!
Jason Villegas. trust in God put everything in his hands depend on God talk to God spend time in the blessed sacrament
Praise God!!
Who is this priest?
Thank you dear sir
Thank you
It’s the 1st time I heard the word “compunction”. When I think of nuns, all I recall is the image of brutal school masters hitting students with a ruler in the hand. In the Medieval Times, women desire to be contrite, pure and virgin. Now it’s the exact opposite.
Today is the day The Lord has made. Prepare your hearts and have your children baptized.
The end approaches.
For you do not know what hour HE RETURNS.
it's so simple! why didn't i think of this??
Pray for me .....
They were beautiful prayers! And I believe in compunction, however didn't some of the Saints just take it a little too far? God does not want us to harm ourselves, does he? He says in Scripture that he does not require sacrifice, but instead a contrite heart. Well, a contrite heart is indeed a heart of Tears!! But we must be careful not to overdo that. I tried to do that and it made me so miserable that I was unable to function. I don't believe that God would want that because it caused me to go into despair. But my heart indeed is a heart of Tears and it will be until I enter Heaven. I've been disabled for 20 years and and very isolated at times, so I believe this trial which seems endless, is my path to heaven! Because every moment am I day is spent clinging to the Cross of Christ! And I do offer it up for my sins, for the sins of my family, and for all sin! Does this mean I have compunction? Praise be the Holy Name of Jesus Christ!!
It makes me glad he used the name Isaias, a lot of traditional priest and laity use Isaiah, or Elijah etc I do much like Isaias and Elias etc sounds more Catholic
Ezekiel 18:24 24 “But if a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin and does the same detestable things the wicked person does, will they live? None of the righteous things that person has done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness they are guilty of and because of the sins they have committed,
they will die.
Luke 17:1-4
17 And he said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin[a] are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come! 2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.[b] 3 Pay attention to yourselves! If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him, 4 and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
Seraphim burning my lips sounds good.
I don't think compunction is the best way to overcome faults or sins. I can go in more detail if asked, but I think positivity/perfect contrition is better than negativity/imperfect contrition for changing.
I beg The Most Holy Theotokos to ask Our Blessed Lord to completely and immediately evacuate Purgatory. Please Mama, please ask Our Blessed Lord to do so! Please!!
please tell me the meaning of compunction.
Amen 💕
Sin seems great, but just brings misery… No God, No happiness, etc.
I have been praying the rosary, chaplet of St Michael, & the novena to St Jude still struggling. My question is am I faling in that I am giving in to free will? I am knocking, asking, seeking, where am I failing ?
Frances Bernard here. I like this. Except for all the assuming instead of givens while not worrying too much in insecurity about what might be going on behind a woman's eyes when competing with one and the mythologizing during politically correct prescribed Adam and Eve humility of which Saint Peter was often prone to before his friend in the holy spirit died for him and less often after too -- Just like the rest of us regardless of if each of us is Greek [or from some other ethnic background] Jew, male or female..
In the description, did you mean to say ingratitude for “2)”??
Wow!
who is this priest
I can't be certain, but he sounds exactly like the priest at my parish. Fr. Michael Passo at Mater Misericordiae in Phoenix. Who also starts his homilies with "In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost".
❤
Woah!
I can understand that if one suffers you don’t blame it on God or Christ but to say that one calls upon suffering for oneself to prove to oneself that they love Christ is mere self absorption for better word that they wish to out do the Suffering of Christ to compare one’s own suffering to that of Christs suffering rather pompous I feel....God does not want us to suffer it comes about through circumstances. To say that one prayers to God for him to send down more suffering upon oneself is pretty useless...
Do you think that citizens of Nineveh enjoyed sitting in ashes and sackcloth? They suffered and did the penance. So yes, as long as our sufferings are not there to prove something...
God can see our hearts and intentions.
Leading a holy life is easy. Just listen to the inspirations of the Holy Spirit. Don't even try anything more.
@Darknight Ofthesoul No Im a catholic
I’m sorry self harm is a sin
This sounds like Father Altman.

Where in the Bible did either Jesus or his followers use a Rosary? Answer: NOWHERE!
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosary
@@junesilvermanb2979 Your web link is not answering the question, which was, 'Where in the Bible did either Jesus or his followers use a Rosary?
@@cbooth151 I think June was directing to you to the background of the Rosary which is essentially one of the best means for us to meditate upon the mysteries of Our Lord's life, thus aiding in our salvation. It is obvious you don't understand the purpose of the Rosary from your assertion. Why would Christ need to meditate on His own mysteries? Why would the Apostles, first hand witnesses to His life, death and Resurrection need to meditate upon His life through the Rosary?
It was for people centuries after, a tangible means of uniting ourselves to the life of Christ and giving glory to Him through honouring His Mother. It is a Tradition that has a Scriptural Basis (The Our Father, Invocation of the Trinity, Archangel Gabriel's greeting to Mary, Elizabeth's Greeting to Mary). Before you say "Scripture alone" ; explain to me how the early Church functioned in the years following Christ's Resurrection. They had no Scripture, no Bible to guide them; merely what they had been taught by Christ that they passed on to others (have a look at the Early Church Fathers or the document known as the Didache) - i.e. tradition.
The "Hail Mary's" are Mary's Psalter and like the Psalms (www.rosarycenter.org/homepage-2/rosary/the-rosary-st-dominic/), are not intended glory to the or direct us to worship the Psalmist or Mary, but are designed to give all glory to God. We give honour to Mary (and you should too) for she was no ordinary woman, she was The "Woman", God's masterpiece of creation who He saw fit to call Mother. In growing closer to Mary, we hope that our souls too may "magnify" the Lord as perfectly as she did.
Why should we honour His Mother? If an Archangel saw it worthy to greet Her with such reverence, what does that say for us.
@@MrVazza96 "I think June was directing to you to the background of the Rosary."
Tell me, is the rosary based on Scripture? Can you think of any of Jesus' earliest followers using a rosary to what you call "to meditate upon the mysteries of Our Lord's life"? No, you can't. The rosary is nothing but a Catholic invention.
@@cbooth151 Hi, I think what is going on here is a divergence of Christian dogmatic beliefs. Based what you have, said am I right in inferring that you are a person who subscribes to the belief of sola scriptura? If so, then this discussion/debate will never be resolved mainly because many things that Catholics do are not found in the bible are are based on the traditions of the early Church. I agree the bible does not state or teach the praying of the rosary in the bible. However, if you are coming from a sola scriptura position, I would like to state that just because something is not expressly mentioned in the bible it does not mean that it is anti-biblical or contrary to it. There are many recorded instances in the bible where it was noted that Jesus taught things - however those teachings were never recorded - see Matt. 13:3; Mark 4:2, 33; 6:34; Luke 11:53; 24:15-16, 25-27; John 16:12; 20:30; 21:25; Acts 1:2-3 for some examples of this. What we need to understand about the Rosary is that it consists of two things 1)The vocal expression of formed prayer and 2) A meditation on the life of Christ. Many protestant denominations will teach that by praying the Rosary that Catholics are 'worshipping' Mary and using 'vain repetitions' to do so. At this point I must make it unambiguously clear that Catholics do not 'worship' Mary - most the Hail Mary prayer is taken directly from scripture and the last part is simply a petition asking her to pray for us. Secondly, the issue of the Rosary being a vain repetition - it is not. What Jesus was referring to here were the gentiles praying mindless babbles to their pagan gods. If Jesus did not wish for any Christian anywhere to repeat prayers then he would not have taught the Lord's Prayer/Our Father. Another point I would like to raise here is to challenge the idea that protestant denominations believe that Catholics believe Mary is a mediator just like Jesus. This could not be further from the truth. Catholic believe that by her nature as the Daughter of God the Father, the spiritual spouse of the Holy Spirit and Mother of the Son of God that she is a powerful intercessor - not a mediator. An intercessor is one who prays, petitions, or entreaties in favour of another. Only Our Lord Jesus Christ is Mediator per 1 Tim 2:5. I hope this helps you in you understanding of the Catholic way of life. While you may disagree any any or all of the points I have made, it is just more for information rather to spark a debate. God Bless .
