  • One of the questions people ask, and many are confused about, is, “Do I need the Catholic Church for salvation?” The answer is both simple and complex. Father Thaddaeus Lancton, MIC, reminds us that there is one way to salvation, and Jesus is that way; He keeps us on that narrow path that leads to Heaven through the one true Church. Then hear the inspiring story of Luke Kornet of the Boston Celtics, who after an injury realized it was time to make God and his Catholic faith a priority in his life.
    Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm EST, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am EST. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation! Ep. 141: Is There Salvation Outside the Catholic Church?

    Thank you Fr Chris and LDM Team for this wonderful episode. This is a message that I truly appreciate and we can never hear it enough, and we can never share it enough. As Fr Thaddeus explained, we are all brought to the Church by someone. Well, I struggle with patience to LOVINGLY spread the truth. This morning’s homily (my church) was about being a light, living in a Godly way and I try very hard to do so. It’s easy when I’m with the weekday mass crowd, but when I go out into the world, not so much. Does anyone else have people in their lives who tell you that “you’re too much with this religion”? “ Everybody doesn’t wanna hear about it! “. I’m not vocal there’s just some things I don’t engage in. Perhaps I am under attack by the evil one. God gave me a pretty thick skin; I know who I am, but please pray for me and thanks for reading this. I do not want my FIRE to go out. Offering prayers for our Marian family, and especially you Father Chris and your Alar family

We Catholics are blessed not only with the truth, but also through the Eucharist which is the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ. Becoming Catholic is the best thing I have ever done, hands down. God bless you, Fr Chris; you and your family are in my prayers. 🙏🙏

    Thank you, Fr. Chris, for this wonderful episode on Living Divine Mercy: Is There Salvation Outside The Catholic Church? Sincerely grateful to Fr. Thaddeus for the clarification and explanation on this important truth of our Catholic faith. Openness to accept the truth and living the fullness of life in Jesus is a great transformation for our salvation. Thanks to all who shared their life experiences from living the ordinary life to a deep spiritual conversion to Jesus and their love of the Catholic Church. No one can take them away from Him and the peace, love and joy only God can give. We must always express our heartfelt thanksgiving to God for giving us the Catholic Church and His teachings and remain faithful until we reach our eternal life.

      Amen. Very difficult to be out in the world. I thank God he gave me a thick skin, but our job is also to bring others to Jesus. It’s not easy. I got pushback from a family member I think because I sent the info for the JESUS THIRSTS movie.

      @@alwaysmisskaryn My dear Karyn, I highly admire your courage to share and honestly bring our loving and merciful Jesus to others. Positive and negative reactions from this kind of ministry are expected, and because we want Jesus to made known, who is our Lord and Saviour, we must go on and be thankful for the opportunity of being His witness to the world. Thank you so much for sharing. I’m not surprised at all because I have experienced many times humiliations, rejections and abandonment that strengthens my faith,hope and love in Jesus. I can truly say now that He is my best friend together with Mother Mary. You and I will never be alone, we know where to turn to : the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Prayers for you and God bless.

    Amazzzing testimonies that make us all in awe… such as Fr Don’s extraordinary conversion!!! Hearing him again (he never kept everything hidden, everything comes out like a flow of water from the faucet!!!) oh yes, this “MARIAN” was thoroughly consumed with a Divine Love for MAMA MARY, and from that moment on, there was no turning back!!! Fr Don has gone a long, long way, like a St Augustine, or even St Paul, he is driven with so much LOVE for being a full time Marian Priest, and since then, he has been a popular author with our beloved St Joseph as his personal “hero!” and, has been writing and writing ever since!!! Unbelievable, but true!!!
    Fr Don is our great example about how the Holy Spirit enlightened his path towards the Priesthood, through the intercession of Mary, our beloved true Mother!”
    Great job, Fr Chris with this multi presentation !!
    (Your testimony will come next, or, you know that you are already an absolutely open book to all of us? Well… ???)
    Good day everyone !!!
    May Jesus in His Divine Mercy embrace us all with His Everlasting Love, now and forever! Amen 🙏
    Jesus awaits us all the time, let’s keep asking Him, for He is there with wide open arms!!! (I imagine Him all the time!)

      Unfortunately these are the ones who challenge us. It’s easy to evangelize with the “convinced Catholics”. I agree, the struggle is real and the danger that they think that “we” are too much, can influence us, if we don’t stay vigilant. My late brother always said “people require patience, a lot of patience”

    So. If only the Priests hands are consecrated how does a Eucharistic Minister qualify to touch the Blessed Sacrament? There was said to be a saint who crept into a damaged Church, and broken tabernacle. The hosts were all over the floor. This person returned every day to bend and receive each of the Eucharist by tongue only. The last day, the last host, this person was killed by a sniper. This is what I remember. People have died to protect the Eucharist. You speak of Mercy...in the Old Rite the Priests especially cleanse and pray. What you say here about caution and truth and ignorance not being bliss is true of other aspects of our faith.

    Only God is the judge. All people are a reflection of their environment, and because of that, God will take into account each person's unique situation.
    And PLZ believe Muslims are a reflection of their situations. God will not ask 'the church' on judgment day, He will decide on His merits alone.

      Are you referring to the same Bible that was was canonized by the Bishops of the Catholic Church at the Councils of Carthage and Hippo in 393 and 397 AD and gave you the same bible you are reading today? You can't accept the bible and reject the authority from which it came. The Catholic Church gave you the Bible you have today and determined what books were inspired by the Holy Spirit. Of the hundreds of "gospels" that were in circulation in the early centuries, how did only 4 come to be in the bible? Yes, the Catholic Church :) And seeing Christ started a Church, and there was only the Catholic Church for 1,500 years, odds are pretty good it is the Church of Christ.... unless you think Jesus got it wrong until Martin Luther got it right. God bless and know you're in our prayers.

    • @DivineMercy_Official
      @DivineMercy_Official  17 днів тому +1

      The Catholic Church is the Church of Christ because there was no other Christian Church for 1,5000 years.... only the Catholic Church existed. Do you think that Jesus would come to earth and start a Church, which he did i Matt 16:18, but then he would say, "I'm going to start a Church but I am going to get it wrong for 1500 years until Martin Luther comes and gets it right...." That doesn't seem to make sense. From the first century we have writings of Christians celebrating the Mass, the veneration of Mary and the saints, confession, prayers for the dead and belief in Purgatory. Those devotions were totally practiced by all early Christians. What does that sound like? Yes, only the Catholic Church. God bless and prayers for you.
