    This is my favorite podcast you guys have done so far. Wow! It is so awesome we have the historical records to show how Christians worshipped just like we Catholics do now. But most of all I appreciated the way you walked through the Mass and put all the puzzle pieces together. Thank you so much!!

    I wasn’t catechized properly and almost left the Catholic Church. I ended up staying when I came across the early church fathers. St. Justin the Martyr’s 1st Apology exposed me to what the Mass was really about and I soon started going to Mass again. I normally sit near the front pew these days because it helps me pay attention to the Eucharist and the Liturgy of the Word.

The first time I went to a liturgical Christian service I thought it was the most beautiful worship I had experienced. The more you know scripture the more you appreciate the Mass. Looking forward to watching the rest of this series.

      Well, I am sorry to say you are a participation in idolatry.
      As I said elsewhere....
      Let's allow the Bible to destroy and expose Catholicism as a non-prophet organization, shall we?
      Specifically, the catechism quotes the Council of Trent (which claimed to be guided by the Holy Spirit TWICE in their decree on the Eucharist) and states that the Catholic religion may be SUMMARIZED in one sentence --which, as will be shown, just happens to be a lie. So buckle your seat belts. Notice the words in caps...
      “Christ our Redeemer SAID that it was TRULY his body he was OFFERING [in sacrifice at the Last Supper] ...." (CCC 1376).
      Aside from the fact it is flatly unbiblical to assert that Christ "offered himself in sacrifice at the Last Supper BEFORE he went to the cross" (CCC 621) because (HELLOOOO!) there is a specific, set time for everything (Ecc 3), the worse error is to misquote Jesus Christ who DID NOT SAY that the bread was "TRUUUUUUULY" his body. He said, "This is my body", period, not that the bread was "TRUUUULY" his body. Obviously, the magisterium felt the biblical account was inadequate to stand on its own, and so in reaction to the Reformers, they stuck a word in Christ's mouth to force their position that he was speaking literally about eating his flesh, down the gullible laity's throats pretending the Holy Spirit was guiding them.
      NO, The Holy Spirit was certainly NOT guiding them to add to the Text, now wake up! The fact is, the words, "This is" are shown to be metaphorical by at least 50 examples throughout the biblical record, whereas papal pundits simply ASSERT, without a scrap of evidence, that Jesus was speaking literally! If they want to risk their souls on a single-word MISQUOTE which claims to SUMMARIZE the entirety of their religious existence, then so be it. We have warned them.
      As a result of their being guilty of adding to the word of God, all claims for infallibility come tumbling down, not to mention anything they say about the Eucharist is to be rejected as well. Now the fact is, it is up to the Christian to decipher the Lord's meaning FROM THE TEXT, and not from the circus of Catholic apologetic clowns who came after it. Hence, based on the fact Jesus is gravely concerned about the sanctity of his word down to the last “jot and tittle” (Matt 5:18), that one, single gross addition to the word of God (namely, "TRULY") is like a flashing neon sign that signals us to consider ANY non-catholic explanation regarding the words "This is"...over and against what the Pope has to say.
      Therefore, not only is Transubstantiation unsubstantiated, but the claim for infallibility tips over like a house of cards, exposing Trent as a “non-prophet” organization (Eph 5:11) as well as a bunch of liars (Rev 2:2; cf: Deut 18:22, Jer 23:30-40, Ezekiel 13:1-7). It is promised in those passages that all who recklessly wag their tongues by asserting, “The Lord says”, (when the Lord did not say), will be swiftly cast out of his presence (cf. Jeremiah 14:14, 23:16-21). So WHATEVER this video is reporting, here or elsewhere, , these guys are not to be trusted because they are promoting an irrefutably false religion whose top-gun Council of Trent misquoted Jesus Christ under the banner of infallibility, case closed.

      Second, since it's obvious you could not refute one word I said, it's quite amusing you think you're doing heaven a favor by even wasting any keystrokes at all.
      Again, 99% of all Catholic comments here or elsewhere either blowing kisses to the video presenter OR (like in your case) simply deny someone's disagreement, accompanied by, of course, NO PROOF.

      @@atrifle8364 SO GOOD! And so helpful. The RITE we celebrate is (in my case) the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite. In that sense, I am a ROMAN Catholic (this refers to the rite celebrated in our liturgy). But there are a total of 7 valid RITES in 23 Catholic Churches in communion with the ONE Catholic Church. Rome has also become the place from which Peter's successor (now known as the Bishop of Rome) leads the Universal Church. Thus, we are "in communion" with the "BISHOP OF ROME." We celebrate the ROMAN RITE in communion with the BISHOP OF ROME. But there are Catholics in 22 other RITES that are **not** Roman -- but they are no less Catholic.

      2 - where it's shown we are supposed to pray to humans. even dead humans.
      3 - where it shows another sinner forgiving a sinner for 3rd party sins which the other sinner had no part in.
      there is more but this is more than sufficient to show you don't really understand Truth (see John 17:17).
      thanks in advance for proving these points, Sir!

    Hello KMK: I am a Catholic revert and frequently compare ex-Protestants to newly naturalized citizens - they are far more knowledgeable about and devoted to their adopted religion than the natives. This video touched upon a topic I’ve been ranting about for years.
    I attend my Catholic Church on Sundays but my husband prefers the local Evangelical church so I tag along with him on Thursday nights. (Please don’t start. It is what it is.) Bible history, etymology of words, connections between the Old and New Testaments, etc. covered in those Protestant services is thorough and engagingly presented. There is great value in going through a book of the Bible, one chapter at a time, over a series of weeks (filtering out the Catholic-bashing of course). We do not have this kind of instruction built in to the Mass, which as you point out is basically the same rite that existed 2,000 years ago. Billy Graham has no place there.
    Catholics have to hunt down their serious Bible Study outside of the Mass. That is a big ask for those who are busy with the multitude of other things they need to do during the week. Other than hyping your videos to our Catholic friends, what’s the answer guys?

      We three celebrate the ordinary form of the Roman Rite, therefore not the Latin Mass. We also dont celebrate the Alexandrian, Antiochene, Armenian, Chaldean, or Byzantine rites. But all seven rites are celebrated as valid. All include the same basic structure. And Jesus is fully present in them all. One big difference is that there is more Bible used in the ordinary form *during the liturgy of the word" (*comment added for clarification) than any of the others.

      Hey guys, my comments re: Volume of Scripture read at the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite should be clarified in this way.
      The reference is primarily regarding the texts read during the Liturgy of the Word.
      In the old missal, there are only two readings for each Mass, and these repeat every year on a one-year cycle (thus, the same readings are read year after year, every year), and there are significantly fewer (and sometimes NO) readings from the Old Testament.
      In the New Missal, there are THREE readings (OT, Epistle, Gospel), and rather than repeating the same texts year after year (and often repeating them in weekday masses from the previous Sunday), there is a three-year-cycle. If one attends the Ordinary Form on Sundays only over 3 years, they will hear over 7K verses read, and if they attend 7 days a week over 3 years, they will hear over 14K verses of scripture read during the liturgy of the word. There is simply no comparison.
      That doesn't mean there is more/less during other parts of the mass. Rather, it means that more of the Bible (especially the OT) is used in the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite, and much more over the three-year (vs. the one-year) cycle.

      And the litgury discussions have begun. 🙁 I get why people go to the TLM. But the reverence you are finding is a process of self selection. The NO is where everyone shows up...and everyone is certainly there. Further the terms of the whole discussion tend to be myopic. There are, as Kenny B notes, 22 other rites, with their own languages and liturgies. How they administer even the sacraments are different. The TLM is beautiful but is not worth schism and never was. My understanding is the NO was structured to more like Eastern Orthodox Masses, as changes were introduced at the time Trent. If you have a beautiful TLM, please keep going. Just please also don't think the salvation of the world depends on it. That belongs to Christ alone.
