I want to thank this channel GabiAfterHours for uploading a Father Chad Ripperger talk in high quality. I dare to say that Father Ripperger is the absolute best priest in the USA. He’s bold, honest, intelligent, wise, eloquent, the world is in deep need of priests like him. God bless him.

[@clararizzi8051]

It has been a very difficult journey for 8 yrs ,to find a good priest...one who truly understands and guide you through ' SPIRITUAL WARFARE ". How can we respect a priest to whom we pour our hearts out begging for SPIRITUAL HELP and NO HELP is offered. They look at you as crazy, ignorant, on drugs. They tell you...go to confession and Mass. They never suggest " GENERAL CONFESSION " A good priest will guide and prepare you for this SACRAMENT and warn you that it might take from 1 to 3 hrs if it is done correctly. So many things are not taught as Seminarians, as one Priest told me,that is why they look confused or give you wrong answers to your needs. I grew up going to School with the nuns,Church everyday. Then the nuns and priests could do no wrong and In my innocence I had on Pedestals...as life goes on I took them all off the Pedestals. Only God belongs on a GOLDEN PEDESTAL. I pray for the priests and nuns, the good ones and the bad ones.

The Altar rails have long been taken out of our churches here in New Zealand...Before Vatican II, the prayer to St Michael the Archangel was often recited after Mass. In 1994, St. Pope John Paul II urged Catholics to embrace it - while preaching on threats to the unborn. This powerful prayer needs to be reinstated - for obvious reasons...Fr, thank you for this truly spiritual food for which we all so hunger.

I pray for the laity that we may wake up and give to Lord what is his. That we revere him. And that we look to the Eucharist for what it is. The literal body and blood of our savior Jesus Christ. And not merely symbolic. May Gods mercy be upon us all.

[3] For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; [4] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV Bible [8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. Romans 10:9-13 KJV Bible [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. [12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. John 3:16 KJV Bible For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
