Praise God for the Catholic Church!
No flaws whatsoever, we as Catholics need to set an example and keep the fire raging
Yeah, you said it correctly “the fire” the fire works of Satan.
you already did with the inquisition, remember? you enjoyed the burning alive and the torturing, has that slipped your mind? i have to say it's great that the pope has finally pointed out god's error about homosexuality
and okayed gay marriage, nice to see religion finally catching up with real morality, and good
of the religists to admit god was wrong. maybe in a few years it'll l be so watered down religion will
be invisible.
what did they do with the space left by limbo being abolished? ballroom? casino?
Butker has a new admirer from afar !!! ... Love this Guy !!! .... He does preach the Truth !!
--- Go Chiefs !!
I loved it❤ It was superb❤❤❤
Likewise! A beautiful expression of his genuine faith.
He was an inspiration even to non-Catholic Christians! A real life, modern day HERO!!! Get him on your channel!
We are trying! :)
Agree with you. Well done Butker!
Pope Francis, Harrison Butker, and Caitlin Clark - all Catholics - are under spiritual attack. Let’s pray and fast for them.
Pope Francis in recent interview asked what give him hope? He said all men are fundamentally good. He's a false teacher who deny Bible that says nobody is good, we're all sinners, that's the gospel become precious.
Brian, please make a video to defend your pope.
Unfortunately Pope Francis invites this with his dubious statements and dumpster fires like Fiducia Supplicans.
@@valkyrafeHumanity is fundamentally good. We are made in the image and likeness of God. The sinful nature, also called concupiscence, is unnatural to us.
@@valkyrafewe were create good. For God create us to be good for a good purpose.. his purpose. It doesn’t mean we aren’t sinners.
I also thought his speech was amazing...and amazingly brave considering he has so much to lose.
i also loved it and for all the reasons you said.
It was amazing! A beautiful thing to see.
Me too..i loved it how brave he is. Thank you Brian
I haven't listened yet but feel like I did since so many have been talking excitedly about it!
Amen Brother 🙏❤️🙏
The priest just told me last week we must respect every faith... when i told him i am trying to bring friends into Catholic Church. They speak of heresies and I love them I want them to see the truth. We must speak with truth and with love and, of course, respect. But we must PREACH!
Amen! We can respect the religions, but we should love the people enough to bring them to the true church. As you do. Keep up the good work.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial until god wants them to burn of course, then you agree with god naturally. don't ever forget the "nuance" and "context" of god.
Do you truly believe the Catholic Church & all its false teachings is speaking the truth to people? Do you believe the second coming of Christ? If you do then you can’t believe a man can snag Christ out of heaven thousands of times a day at once, & hocus Pocus I have the power as a man to present to you, Jesus in the living flesh in a cracker. That is blasphemy, heresy the work of the devil.. Un biblical. No man has that power. The Catholic Church is evil, one thing satan has a strong hold in.
People don't disagree anymore. They rage and try to destroy. Unfortunately, it happens on all sides from time to time.
Very true, sadly.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial aww, shame.
that applies to religists as well. what point are you're trying to make, that you're special? you're liberal? a liberal catholic goes against everyone else on this page, catholics appear to want blood.
Well said Brian 👏🏻👍
That was a spectacular speech! Harrison is an awesome Catholic leader. I appreciate how “Mr. Butt Kicker” broke the woke feelings with true genuine Catholic values. He is a superstar on and off the football field. God bless him.
Thanks for watching! God bless him indeed!
Fun fact I share a birthday with Harrison Butker. I agreed with most of the speech. The women being homemakers comment threw my friend off and probably the IVF comment too.
You can show him/her our video on IVF. 😇 ua-cam.com/video/tw_rjyw2OLA/v-deo.htmlsi=_QAppcra0zPU9cbA
@@CatholicTruthOfficial his thing is that when we were just out of high school he got leukemia.
It can certainly be a difficult teaching as many of the moral teachings can. However there are also good reasons why, as you know.
I would like a breakdown of the speech. To discuss the Catholic teaching as well as silence what people think he meant rather what he said.
The Lord's truth, is always true 👍
Amen!
❤❤❤
Before you even say anything....I loved it! And that's that.
It's a great speech!
Thoughts as an American with deeps roots here. I have both Catholic and Protestant ancestors, both lines arriving in the 17th century.
-Protestantism at it's core is anti-Catholic. However it is profoundly unfair to modern and historic Protestants to view ourselves as complete victims, particularly in America, with no sense of charity and context. The facts of quotes are probably unsound in so much they are lacking a needed context. That idea itself is a modernism, where we come to identity not as a saved and joyful people but acquire a victim mentality when it comes to the past.
Will you do a rebuttal video of Spencer Smith and his take on Harrison's speech? Video is called: "Kansas City Kicker Speech was Mystery Religion". Believe he massively misrepresented what Harrison said, and what the Catholic church teaches. Please and thanks.
Please send us an email. We get hundreds of requests, so we may be able to at least look at it. Info@catholictruth.org

If you turn away from the Catholic Church and actually read the Bible, you will be set free. Denounce the teachings of men and non-biblical scripture.
@@jeffhook7669 Quite the opposite, if you turn to the teachings of Christ's Church and actually read your bible, you will realize that Protestants champion traditions of men and non-biblical teachings. They removed 7 books from scripture, and 5 sacraments.
@@catholictruthreplies what was a good thing I’m not a protestant either Nor Catholic. But if I had to make a choice, I would side with Protestants before Catholics.

There’s only one problem, most couples have to have two incomes. You can’t survive any other way.
@@Mashfan6507 correct. And sad at the same time.
@@SaintBirdie yeah exactly. Not that I’ll ever get married, but so many people are and have to both work. Does that mean they’re all bad Catholics for that reason?

@@SaintBirdie yeah you’re right, He understands, but still

I agree
The public majority should be full of gratitude for Harrison Butker’s powerful eloquence and praising the most important and ignored of all women HOMEMAKERS including his wife Isabelle Butker, surrogacy is A detestable sin against God Almighty, as well as harmful to both women and children, don’t get me started on IVF and sperm bank scandals, our world needs more functional and Christ centered Catholic Christian families instead of protected criminals getting away scot-free.
Agreed! Butker is a model for all of us Catholics, and non-Catholic christians as well to live their faith authentically.
The thing is, he’s a millionaire so it’s easy for his wife to stay home. 99% of women can’t stay home they have to work
Non-millionaires can do it too. Most people do not live within their means.
@@gregd8427 my parents lived within their means, have both worked and have nothing to show for it. I live within my means, yet I’ll never have anything except my tiny apartment. Not that I’ll ever get married, but even if women liked me I couldn’t provide for a family on my income, esp when half of it is taken from me in taxes.
Obviously not everyone can do it. The point is that you do not have to be a millionaire for a wife or husband to stay home with the kids. I know plenty of people that stayed home with their kids and we’re nowhere close to being a millionaire.
Agreed!
🙏🏻🙌🏻🕊🌹
His speech kicked Butk!
Haha love it!
Could you recommend me some video on the right way of practicing the mass. I'm not sure about it, but I have some suspicion that the mass in the Churc of my town is different.
Can you please tell us more to help us understand? Thanks.
You need to do some checking if the priest that celebrates Mass in your town is really an authentic priest. If he is not, then the mass in your town is also invalid or not the TRUE Mass.
@CatholicTruthOfficial My wife said that the priest only prayed for one bread and gave the others one without praying for it. I thought that you didn't have to literally pray for every single set of bread, but of course I don't know what is the right procedure.
@@marietav7342How can I know if the local priest is valid? I'm going to check if he is valid.
I have serious mixed feelings about his speech. Butker’s full speech is about 20 minutes and it’s on Benedictine college’s UA-cam channel with almost 1M views when I watched it (probably over 1M now).
What worries me is that even though he DID mention very many crucial things that NEED to be heard out loud in public by all people in defense and growth of our faith, and of crumbling societal values, none the less he criticized “Catholic birth control” and he greatly extolled the Traditional Latin Mass.
These are VERY problematic because whether he (or we) realized it or not he is sowing distrust of the Church and of Romes authority. Here’s why I believe so…
Im not completely sure what he meant when he criticized “[Catholic] birth control/contraception”, and I forgot if he used ‘birth control’ or ‘contraception’, but he definitely used the word Catholic, none the less I believe he criticized the Church’s novel doctrine called Natural Family Planning (NFP) which was first introduced and taught by Pope St Paul VI in 1968.
(EDIT: update for the above regarding NFP. I just rewatched Butker’s speech now and he literally said “No matter how you spin it there is nothing natural about Catholic birth control”. This is proof of his rejection, at the least, of papal teaching on NFP. In fact, upon listening to his entire speech again, he makes many subtle and overt comments indicating his disdain for the Church’s current positions on things and his preference for going back to “tradition”, as if we non-Rad Trad Catholics aren’t already traditional just by virtue of being Catholic. Very disappointing speech actually. He spoiled the good things he said.)
I say that because judging by his own admission on the TLM Butker appears to be radical traditionalist even though he never called himself a radical traditionalist or even a traditionalist. Yet from experience (I was a rad trad SSPX devotee until Oct 2023 here in South Africa when Our Lady broke me out of it) I learned that “Traditionalist” SCHISMATIC societies like the SSPX flat out reject NFP. Of course I DO NOT include those few “traditionalist” groups in full communion with Rome. And I’m unsure which “trad” society Butker is with. But absurdly, he praised the TLM for his faith formation, as if holy mother Church which produced the TLM herself no longer can be trusted to form our faith today.
The point I’m making is that, as anyone who understands the foundational errors of the trad movement, it is a movement with many basic misconceptions which result in very flawed understanding of the Church (ecclesiology) and of our faith.
The trad movement produces another ‘Sola’ ideology (Sola TLM and Sola Tradition) which only results in separating one from the Church’s authority and therefore from Christs authority and thus from salvation.
Mostly, The trad movement is the false church movement attempting to eclipse the Church. It is growing in the West and it is misleading many souls.
It is a continuation of the great apostasy (2 Thess 2:3), originally begun with Orthodox then Protestants, leading people to rebel-defect from Romes authority.
And that’s a long reason why I’m worried about Butker’s speech and the few things he said.
Never the less, I love your consistent and orthodox defense (and passion) of holy mother Church, Brian! You have taught and helped me so much! God bless your efforts.
I have not listened yet but yes, I agree, being in close proximity to an SSPX group and an NFP teacher for 30 years! I had not heard those objections, probably since I am at an Institute TLM church now with 2 of my daughters, in a different state. All the rest I heard about was wonderful!
Don't worry, I noticed it as well. I pray in charity that Butker adheres to church teaching and doesn't have a fundamentalist bend.
Butker goes to FSSP for TLM. Catholic News Agency ran an article about it, interviewing him on how he felt when Francis limited the TLM.
Butker has that interview along with another on CNA where he mentions his love for the TLM. He also states in one of them that even though he started at the NO, he thought and felt the mass should be recognizable to how God wanted it, and he no longer felt the NO was after attending the TLM.
Butker has also interviewed with Taylor Marshall who usually has a more fundamentalist type view. I have not seen Butker interview with Catholics of other leanings, such as America Magazine (more left leaning), nor Catholic Answers (usually seems more middle of the road like Trent Horn, though both sides accuse them of not being left/right enough).
A good analogy I've seen that may help others; both left and right Catholics make the same error. They insist that permissible things should be mandatory, and mandatory things should be permissible for Catholics.
Left - fighting racism including leftist beliefs like affirmative action should be mandatory, but abortion should be allowed.
Right - adhering to tradition such as going to the TLM should be mandatory, but rejecting Vatican II's establishment of the NO as a valid liturgy should be allowed.

Great posts by all y'all.
Hey brother love your stuff. I've see left leaning Catholics say that Butker preached the prosperity gospel. Can you you tell me if that's true cause I didn't see that and read it.
We didn't hear anything about a Prosperity Gospel in his speech. Did they back it up with any facts?
Hello! I have a question. In my local church* the PRIEST is a FREI. On his WhatsApp, his name is set as Frei HISNAME, and he identifies himself as Frei. Is this valid? Can a dude be frei and priest at the same time? Is this a clue that my local church is invalid?
*I'm not a native speaker; I hope when I say "my local church," you, people who speak English, don't think that I have a church😅.
Hello Alex, thank you so much for your reply. I just wanted to check with you to clarify what "FREI" means?
Harrison thinks that a woman’s highest calling to is be a wife and mother, but where does this leave Catholic women who aren’t meant to be either? We exist too.
Every Catholic Christian woman is called to be a spiritual mother, a daughter of God,of God, and a Sister in Christ, whether She is celibate or married.
Then consider the religious life.
All of us, man and woman have a vocation. It's not always wife/mother just as for many men it's not husband/father. Go out and find your place in the world. God has a purpose for all of us in the body of Christ and we all matter, we all have a calling. If your vocation is career, then carry the light of the gospel to the workplace. Take care my sister, I truly hope that you find what God has for you.
The religious life is the highest vocation, but not everyone is called to it. We could ask where it leaves everyone else. But everyone else has a vocation too. We all have different vocations. The vocation that God has for us is the best one for us and one we can grow with beat in holiness and closeness to God.
That was a generalization. The scripture in fact tells us that marriage is not for everyone.
His stance is against liberalism and feminism which are incompatible with the faith, the tradition, marriage and family.
Fact : libs do not recognize unborn babies are human beings. For them parenthood is not about raising children, but aplace for aborting them.
I wasn't offended and respect his opinion. However, I disagree that women live out their vocation once becoming a homemaker. Women can be great wives, moms and have a career.
I don't think he said differently. I think he was just upholding motherhood which the culture of frowns upon and condemns.
Never heard of him.
Kansas City Chiefs football kicker.
I have no idea who this guy is or what the big deal is about it. I've just recently become Catholic. Could you give some context about it?
Feminists got pissed off that a CATHOLIC spoke at a CATHOLIC university to CATHOLIC students and talked about CATHOLIC things.
Basically in short he encouraged women that were married or engaged to embrace their vocation and it’s the highest calling and a job can only do so much. He also criticized lgbt ideology and “Cafeteria Catholic” Joe Biden for his support on abortion. And the internet got Mad.
Avoid Butker and people who agree with him. Obey the Church. Anyone denigrating the Liturgy as promulgated by the Church you should avoid. Avoid people who go against what the Church teaches in the Catechism. Obey your bishop.
@@gijoe508 you don’t know what you’re talking about!! Harrison Butker is all about obedience and remaining faithful to the Church. He attends the Latin Mass at the Fraturnity Of St. Peter church. The FSSP runs churches within the archdiocese, and Pope Francis has given them special permission to say the Latin Mass. In the future, please do your research instead of slamming TLM communities that you know nothing about.
The Pope says that people are good, apart from a few rogue sinners. (CBS interview) That the heart of people is fundamently good. Quick question is the pope lying or is the word of God false. I mean I assume he knows the word of God yet seems to go around doing interviews telling people to go against the word of God. Its almost like he knows what he is doing. A quick read of Romans would tell christians all they needed to know about the heart of people. Its almost like he is preaching a false Gospel or something. There's a word for that but I can't quite remember anti something or other. Thoughts?
Can you quote the actual quote with context and give us a source?
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Lets start at the beginning Gen 6:5, Gen 8:21,romans 7:18. The bible is replete with verses telling us how we are hopeless sinners with hearts of stone inclined to sin. Then pope preaches against that in interview. What more do you need for context and sources.
@@Caffer9286Why don’t you just share the quote in context instead of dodging?
@@Ruudes1483 He preaches that all religions can lead to salvation. We are all deep down good except for a few rogue sinners. How long do you reckon before you see gay marriages in your local church?

@@jeffhook7669Hes right
@@andreeattieh2963 to bad you believe what they teach you… it’s false. And when you do the Eucharist you’re worshiping a different Jesus.. he is not there in the flesh. Don’t believe everything you are told and be trapped because they say you’re damned if you go against anything they preach as truth.
A possibly controversial view on Confession: Yes, I only go to Confession once a year. My reasoning is simple: Confession is for mortal sins and I am not engaging in them. Yes, Confession can absolve venial sins. Yes, people find great comfort in going frequently. By all means go, if it gives comfort and offers spiritual growth. Ignore me, seriously please.
But it does not offer either to me. To me it is the boring laundry list of the faults I will probably have until I die. A Confiteor, the Eucharist, and private prayer all forgive venial sins. I do not need a sacrament that is meant to reconcile me formally back to the Church when I am not committing the sins that would separate me from Church and God.
Personally, I think that although well intentioned, measuring our spiritual health on frequent Confession is the exact wrong metric to use. Mandatory confession before the Eucharist dates no farther back, as far know, than Vatican I (late 19th century). That practice, while easy to see why introduced, introduces both a moral hazard and a theological misconception about the primary nature of Confession. Ultimately our goal is mature in a spiritual sense and not need Confession because we are not sinning. It's always there if we fall off the wagon and break with the Church. But I do trust Jesus and the Church that the endless parade of minor sins are forgiven just for the asking. There are no penitential lines in Heaven, but there are people singing the praises of God. Mass attendance and private daily prayer is probably a much better metric of our spiritual health.
Your confession schedule is between you and God. However, I would caution you that when we sin, we weaken the body of Christ. That is why I choose confession, so that I can be reconciled to the body of Christ.
No one's arguing with you- as long as you believe in the sacrament.
It is great to hear that you receive the sacrament of reconciliation! I personally go once a month, sooner if I do actually slip into mortal sin. There is nothing more uplifting than hearing the words "I absolve you". Ultimately, the examen of conscience is between you and God, and as long as you are aware that you are not in a state of mortal sin when you partake of the Eucharist you are fine. Personally, I find confession to be a great mercy.
We would also add that confession give you special Graces to overcome sin and grow in Holiness that you don't receive otherwise. Also, just make sure you're not making excuses for utilizing the sacrament that Christ set up because of your sin or because you're afraid to confess them to another person. The church recommends once a month for a reason. It helps us to keep up on our sins and have the grace to overcome them.
@@DadoMac- I have almost never heard my own thoughts voiced in any circles. My view is quite often met with suspicion. People do indeed point to lack of frequent confession as a failure of the society/the Church.
Off topic here.
Can you tell me why it took 1200 years for Church to accept transubstantiation when the early church Fathers claimed the bread was only a symbolic but solemn commemoration of Jesus on Cross....
Is that what you pastor taught you? The early church fathers claimed bread was only symbolic?
You've been taught by a false teacher! Get out of your sect or you're DOOMED!
The Catholic Church always accepted transubstantiation. Similar to how it always believed in the Divinity of Christ but only proclaimed it officially in the 300s when it was under attack. Similarly, in 1200 the Eucharist was under attack for the first time, and it was the first time that anyone ever doubted the true presence. So to clear up any doubts or confusion, the Catholic Church reaffirmed its age old teaching. Just like the Divinity of Christ, the Trinity, and many other things down through history. Hope that helps.
um no. nobody thought the eucharist was only symbolic until Zwingli in the mid 1500's
Early Church Fathers describe the Eucharist as symbolic, spiritual and solemn ..
We have already seen how Tertullian clarified his understanding of the Lord’s Table by noting that the bread and the cup were symbols of Christ’s body and blood. In that same vein, we find that many of the church fathers similarly clarified their understanding of the eucharist by describing it in symbolic and spiritual terms.
At times, they echoed the language of Christ (e.g. "This is My body" and "This is My blood") when describing the Lord's Table. Yet, in other places, it becomes clear that they intended this language to be ultimately understood in spiritual and symbolic terms. Here are a number of examples that demonstrate this point:
The Didache, written in the late-first or early-second century, referred to the elements of the Lord’s table as “spiritual food and drink” (The Didache, 9). The long passage detailing the Lord's Table in this early Christian document gives no hint of transubstantiation whatsoever.
Justin Martyr (110-165) spoke of “the bread which our Christ gave us to offer in remembrance of the Body which He assumed for the sake of those who believe in Him, for whom He also suffered, and also to the cup which He taught us to offer in the Eucharist, in commemoration of His blood"(Dialogue with Trypho, 70).
Clement of Alexandria explained that, “The Scripture, accordingly, has named wine the symbol of the sacred blood” (The Instructor, 2.2).
Origen similarly noted, “We have a symbol of gratitude to God in the bread which we call the Eucharist” (Against Celsus, 8.57).
Cyprian (200-258), who sometimes described the eucharist using very literal language, spoke against any who might use mere water for their celebration of the Lord’s Table. In condemning such practices, he explained that the cup of the Lord is a representation of the blood of Christ: “I marvel much whence this practice has arisen, that in some places, contrary to Evangelical and Apostolic discipline, water is offered in the Cup of the Lord, which alone cannot represent the Blood of Christ” (Epistle 63.7).
Eusebius of Caesarea (263-340) espoused a symbolic view in his Proof of the Gospel:
For with the wine which was indeed the symbol of His blood, He cleanses them that are baptized into His death, and believe on His blood, of their old sins, washing them away and purifying their old garments and vesture, so that they, ransomed by the precious blood of the divine spiritual grapes, and with the wine from this vine, "put off the old man with his deeds, and put on the new man which is renewed into knowledge in the image of Him that created him." . . . He gave to His disciples, when He said, "Take, drink; this is my blood that is shed for you for the remission of sins: this do in remembrance of me." And, "His teeth are white as milk," show the brightness and purity of the sacramental food. For again, He gave Himself the symbols of His divine dispensation to His disciples, when He bade them make the likeness of His own Body. For since He no more was to take pleasure in bloody sacrifices, or those ordained by Moses in the slaughter of animals of various kinds, and was to give them bread to use as the symbol of His Body, He taught the purity and brightness of such food by saying, “And his teeth are white as milk” (Demonstratia Evangelica, 8.1.76-80).
Athanasius (296-373) similarly contended that the elements of the Eucharist are to be understood spiritually, not physically: “[W]hat He says is not fleshly but spiritual. For how many would the body suffice for eating, that it should become the food for the whole world? But for this reason He made mention of the ascension of the Son of Man into heaven, in order that He might draw them away from the bodily notion, and that from henceforth they might learn that the aforesaid flesh was heavenly eating from above and spiritual food given by Him.” (Festal Letter, 4.19)
Augustine (354-430), also, clarified that the Lord’s Table was to be understood in spiritual terms: “Understand spiritually what I said; you are not to eat this body which you see; nor to drink that blood which they who will crucify me shall pour forth. . . . Although it is needful that this be visibly celebrated, yet it must be spiritually understood” (Exposition of the Psalms, 99.8).
He also explained the eucharistic elements as symbols. Speaking of Christ, Augustine noted: “He committed and delivered to His disciples the figure [or symbol] of His Body and Blood.” (Exposition of the Psalms, 3.1).
And in another place, quoting the Lord Jesus, Augustine further explained: “‘Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man,’ says Christ, ‘and drink His blood, ye have no life in you.’ This seems to enjoin a crime or a vice; it is therefore a figure [or symbol], enjoining that we should have a share in the sufferings of our Lord, and that we should retain a sweet and profitable memory of the fact that His flesh was wounded and crucified for us (On Christian Doctrine, 3.16.24).
A number of similar quotations from the church fathers could be given to make the point that-at least for many of the fathers-the elements of the eucharist were ultimately understood in symbolic or spiritual terms. In other words, they did not hold to the Roman Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation....
@@louiesafi3116 You cited the interpretations of the protestant pastors, not the early fathers themselves.

Most of the catholic faith is conservative. So I don't get why the moaning about leftist is happening.
The Christian message is offensive to the ears of the majority of the secular atheists in the west nowadays. It is a sad erosion of morals. We should continue to pray for this country. Thanks so much for tuning in, God bless you!
The only two things that I got from this is one that The latin mess is the. Only true mess and if you are not going to that mess your not going to a godly church and the place of a woman is in the home making babies and caring for the Husband that is all I got from this so
Hello Melissa, thank you so much for your reply. I think the speech was far more nuanced than what you took away from it. The Tridentine (Latin) Mass is not the only true mass, and the despite the statements to the contrary the Novus Ordo is indeed graced with Christ and His true presence in the Eucharist, really there in body and blood, soul and divinity. Women have a greater role than homemaking and childbearing, obviously we can see that with the many nunneries. Hope this helps, God bless you!
If that's your vocation that's fine , but you don't spend a bunch of money on a advanced degree, at predigest (catholic) college because you don't need that to change poopy diapers and wipe snotty nose, cook meals (submitting to your husband?) Hell you you don't even need a highschool degree do that, (what really helps is a millionaire husband) just couple weeks home economics class? -
The fact is 4 yr degree at that college is roughly $142,000.
