Great scene from 1964's Becket, with Thomas Becket (Richard Burton), recently appointed Archbishop of Canterbury, struggling with his duty as the king's chancellor and to God.
" Please Lord, make me worthy. "
I pray that every day.
“A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.”
Saint Thomas Becket pray for England and for us all. 🙏❤️
But England themselves broken apart from the holy church..
Becket: "I also am the king's friend."
Folliot: "As chancellor."
Becket: "But now I wear the mitre."
One of the best scenes of the movie. A truely powerful and honest prayer. Becket may not have always led a saintly life, but after his ordination, he became God's servant over the king's. Let us all be God's servants first.
Yyyyyyyyygyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Amen...❤❤❤
Becket's prayer certainly influenced Brother John.
There are 16 dislikes for this scene from a brilliant movie? There's no accounting for taste.
No account at all, this was masterfully done. I quite love this scene.
@@aje2366 The old statement: " They don't make like this anymore" is sadly very true.
Profound prayer straight from a priest's heart ("I have been a stranger to prayer, and undeserving of your friendship."). Are we not all tempted to serve our own "worldly king" in some form or another?
Very much so! And look what Becket's prayer did towards turning a monk's heart!
Amen. Well said.
Yes.
“Lord watch over me today, or I will betray you.”

Mistranslated quote, he said if left to himself then he will betray God
@@EasedBirch2114 pretty close.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner...
I ask for this same thing almost everyday. Thank you for your comment.
HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH! And He has all the worth you need!
@john brown peace be with you, my brother. I'm sorry that our religion has been so poorly or proudly explained to you. It does not do any credit to you to mock it, anymore than it credits us to mock you.
No, straight to hell for you.
@@adamgrimsley2900 bless you
a terrific scene, a powerful prayer.
And Becket's example turned a monk to obedience.
5:59 A beautiful and heartfelt prayer. One we can all learn from.
Burton at his very best.
David Weston was a fine actor who never received the recognition he deserved.
Great acting. Great movie making with superb language. English, a language for all seasons. Peter and Richard compliment each other and bring out the best in both.
A meaningful scene.
A prayer we all understand
Unforgettable film
Great great movie wonderful actor.Peter O'Toole is the King and another great great actor.Never cames another.
Becket’s Holiday
I saw the spires of Canterbury when I was just a lad
Watching o’er my wandering in the travels that I had
And so I came to yearn for where a lamb had laid his head
and where I could but put to rest those passions that had fled
I promised that I’d come to see where Thomas had been laid
near histories unspoken shame that every man had made
and sit beside his tomb beneath that sacred hallowed vault
where echoes of his agony were pardoning my fault
Extraordinary!!
Two Welsh men playing two Saxon Englishmen.
@Andrew To raise the stakes.
Who is the other Welshman?

St. John Fischer, pray for us

Jesus is the only way. Neither the saints or any other of Christ’s relatives or disciples intercede for us
@@Unicysis
They interceded in the Bible
@@Unicysisdo you ask others to pray for you?
St Thomas Becket was not Saxon. Both his parents were Norman merchants, obviously much humbler than anyone around his King.
At the time the play the play the film was based on was written it was believed that Becket was a Saxon.
this and cleopatra... I love you burton
Just noticed that the script has Burton using the royal 'We' when referring to himself. I wonder if that's how the Archbishop of Canterbury would have actually spoken at the time or whether the script writers put it in to emphasise the perceived challenge to Henry's power.
Please Lord, make me worthy. I would only add to be kept steadfast.
Wow, he admonished me!
A true shepherd
Nice
Elias Abi-Elias Who else is watching in 2018? 🤔
No, Canterbury!

He is not struggling with God; he is struggling with the Church. That is a very different thing.
The Church is the instrument of Gods Authority on earth.
Becket's struggle is with himself, not with either Church or God. For the first time he is confronting the reality that he now bears a far higher responsibility than either to his own selfishness or the King.

It's mentioned frequently in this film that Becket was Saxon, in fact he was as Norman as the king. Perhaps the myth make for a better film.
Hosea 4:1- 19
didn't give the accused priest a chance for redemption..how evil
Basta !
The Roman Catholic Church does have a sacrament of penance. But the knight in question had to admit he was guilty before he could receive penance and absolution. Whether he did so, we don't know.
Vintage ham ! From Burton.
that frail old man
Rome had great power over england
Until henry 8 broke àway!
ESTO DIGNUS

A priest debauched a young girl ?!? Very strange .
Normally it's young boys....?
There's something about Richard Burton pleading for God to make him worthy that is inherently stupid as hell. Burton? A Christion? Give me a break.
It’s ok, its called acting. Dick Burton was rather good at it.
They multiply Priests and saints with a sullen face, perform miracles, cast out demons. Jesus said the tree is known by its fruit.
THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MATTHEW
7: 21-23:
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and did many miracles in your name?' 23 Then will I tell them plainly that I did not know you at all. Get away from me, you workers of iniquity.
Matthew 7: 15-20
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do they gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles? 17 So every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; and an evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Ye shall know them by their fruits.
B. LETTER TO CORINTHIANS (Apostle Paul)
11: 13-15:
13 For such are the apostles, liars, deceitful workers, impersonating the apostles of Christ. 14 And it is not surprising. because Satan also takes the form of a bright angel.15 Wherefore, it is not a great thing that his ministers should be likened unto the ministers of righteousness. Their end will be in proportion to their deeds.
4: 4. In whom is the god of this world?
(Satan) blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the light of the glory of the gospel of Christ might not shine upon them, which is the image of God.
The protestants are those who apply to these words. We catholic remain faithful to Our Lord's Church and the Holy Fathers who interpreted the Holy Scriptures long before Luther, Henry VIII or Calvin were born. There's no salvation outside the Church, wich Our Lord founded on the rock of Saint Peter, that died at Rome. He gave him the power to close and open everything between Heaven and earth, as says the same gospel you've mentioned.
We do not adore the saints. They intercede for us in Heaven: we know they are there, as Our Lord confirmed their holyness by the exact FRUITS you've mentioned: they were virtuous, pious, filled with charity and wisdom. Now, who aree you, who dares to accuse them? Those, who gave their lives for Our Lord and Saviour. What have you given to Our Lord? Most of them gave their own blood to defend the gospel: others, if not the blood, gave their hearts enterily.
The fruits that these saints you've accused are fruits of holyness. Now, what are the fruits of protestantism, caqn you list them? A divided Europe, atheist countries, 1000 of different interpretations of the Holy Scripture. Well, we shall know the tree by its fruits: I only see evil fruits in one side, and it isn't the catholic one.
Try no study more about Church's history, above all the saint's lifes. One who studies that cannot remain protestant.
@@igormarilhanofernandes8432Peter also founded the church of Antioch
And that was doesn’t have the rampant wickedness that Rome had
@@igormarilhanofernandes8432the pope worships idols, previous popes pretended to sell salvation for money and had orgies in the Vatican
Rome even gives the titles of Jesus to Mary, claiming she is our mediator and redeemer
@@igormarilhanofernandes8432study the lives of the popes and then try to remain a Catholic
@@jonathanwilliams1065 I remain Catholic by knowing that Jesus Christ founded the Petrine office (Matt. 16; Luke 23; John 21). There have been both worthy and unworthy men occupying this office. No one founded the tens of thousands of contradictory Protestant sects except heretics, false prophets and sinful men.
I think BURTON would have been a better KING & O'TOOL a better BISHOP . At any rate they make great homoerotic lovers . Yes most great Hollywood movies have a gay subtext which here is oh so obvious.
If you say so.
You have a sick mind! Please get help!
