Former Protestant pastor evangelizes Sweden for the Catholic Church

[@romereports]

As a #Protestantpastor, #Ekman was very successful. However, after years of studying, he joined the #CatholicChurch. ► More info: www.romereports.com/en/2022/11/24/former-protestant-pastor-evangelizes-sweden-for-the-catholic-church/

A Protestant who becomes Catholic is an unstoppable force indeed

[@kysykatolilaiselta1407]

Can you imagine what currently going on in Finland, a former protestat country? The catholic church grows every year since over a decade by 4%. That is a growth the all 8 parishes that they can barely handle. Also financially... The prieats do not get paid a salary but the seminary is full!

[@michellea9857]

He brings his pentecostal zeal with him and knows the importance of the charisms which are also part of our apostolic faith. I hope he discovers the beauty of Jesus in the Traditional Latin Mass as well.

[@henriettanovember4733]

@@michellea9857 He was not pentecostal but the leader and founder of a very horrible sect (ten times worse, at least, than pentecostal tis aect made him very rich too) Many in the Catholic church in Sweden do not trust this ex sect leader at all, but he is very clever and now the cardinal/bishop Anders Arborelius of Sweden eats from this man's hand...if Cardinal Arborelius becomes pope one day this man will be his closest advisor. He acts now as a auxiliary bishop in everything but name and is listen to by cardinal Arborelius as if he is a church father...

Whatever helps people to deeper connection with Jesus Christ is needed to be done 🙏 We are currently translating the conversion story book from Birgitta and Ulf Ekman "The great discovery" into Finnish language. Quite a push but if it helps people to find closer to the Christ it must be done 🥰

Nice 👍🏼

Friendship and truth!

[@crestalpinecrossreflect134]

Ekman is not the only Protestant Theologian to become Catholic. Who really is studying the Holy Scriptures in depth must become Catholic or perhaps Orthodox ! But the stony way to conversion is not easy to climb. Catholic institutions are not extremely welcoming potential converts.

[@marianmarticek]

Must become Catholic? Like Luther, for example? Oh yeah, the Book of Acts and the Epistles are full of stories about Christians worshipping St. Mary, praying to her, etc. aren't they?

[@GOLDSMITHEXILE]

Wait a minute, way back in time, during the era of papal totalitarianism, the bible was outlawed for common people. Brave men were persecuted and killed simply because they saw it as a vital and necessary right for anyone, high or low, to have access to God's word translated into their own native language. Very few people were allowed to read anyway and most catholic officials didnt read the bible, preferring the "superior authority" of their dogmatic religious traditions

[@SaintCharbelMiracleworker]

@@GOLDSMITHEXILE Yes and why should't it, the bible is a Catholic book, our Church created the Christian bible in 382AD. Now we see the results of unfettered access. 10,0000 Made in China fake denominations full of stupid, uneducated, untrained people ALL claiming the Holy Spirit while butchering the interpretation of sacred scripture in a vacuum. The Holy Spirit can never be the author of confusion.

[@petros-petra]

​@@marianmarticekCatholics are not worshipping Mary. Nice stawman though.

[@hildelautenhalvorsen9141]

It is always funny to hear catholics say this. How many protestants do you know? You don't think any of them study the Bible? ;)

[@ZaprdicaJelic]

What's all this talk about love and friendships? Evangelizing is done by proving others wrong in the youtube comments section. Not only does it make one think their doing God's work, but its also great for your ego. Crackpots unite!

[@martintorn2303]

I do not agree with the catholic church................Stick to the bible and to not follow false prophets.........which is more and more on the scene theese days.

[@petros-petra]

If you really followed the Bible, you would become Catholic.

[@klaravonassisi]

If you stick to the Bible you will end up Catholic.

[@shaikordor164]

Will he preach the message to the catholic followers of the needs of 'being born again?' And will he teach the catholic followers of the need of baptism by immersion? Will he explain that Christ Only is the way, the truth and life? In the book of acts, is clearly seen that the apostles went preaching about Jesus Christ and also God the Father and the manifestation of the Holy Spirit is written there. Repentance toward God and faith toward Jesus Christ and to be filled with the Holy Spirit!

[@elieabi-lamah2209]

I have faith that all churches of Christ are united in love, I have faith that there’s no competition among these churches, I have faith that brotherhood reigns among these churches, I have faith that the churches are blessed, evangelization is meant to be for Jesus Christ and not unto a church against the other, amen 🙏 IC XC

[@hildelautenhalvorsen9141]

Amen! ❤

[@wicomms]

It's not wrong for him and wife to join the catholic church. But man this guy was notorious, he did things no protestant pastor would dare to do in evangelism. Now he is like emasculated in the Rcc.

[@heartofpuregold]

Isnt that interesting a former protestant pastor and theologian converts to Catholic by living their faith by helping themselves and others not just doing a lipservices acting a hypocrite or handing out pamphlets

[@tomindia1661]

The wisdom of God is leading you in the right path. May Jesus who is the way, the truth and the life lead you by the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit in your mission.

[@globalconsultbulgaria]

After "meditation" .......

[@JBM101]

Sad to think the sacraments aid salvation. Can’t believe Ulf has gone from one ditch to another. Sad and in error. 😊

[@klaravonassisi]

Do you have any idea what sacramental theology is?

[@benniodebeny2489]

Jesuit

[@mikeokla01]

He coldblooded left one of the largest sole saving churches in all of Europe and the fire of the Holey-ghost to reject preaching of Pentecost of Jesus Christ and God's mantle upon his life doing so , in exchange for the Roman Catholic Church, why you ask? 'Jesus warned the disciples concerning the final days in Matthew 24:10-12: “At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.” These are the characteristics of the great apostasy of the end

[@klaravonassisi]

Why? He studied the Bible and discovered Catholicism to be true. And may God reward him for giving up everything to follow the Truth.

[@trismaluft9511]

He is in the right path. Bless him❤

[@lively623]

Ulf Ekman let down his own church converting to catholic church. Think about that dear catholics.

[@seanlim222]

After years and possibly decades of protestant teaching, he still fails to see how sinful the catholic church is. Idol worship, playing god and etc.

[@jboycaceres2871]

@@seanlim222 Ergo, he came into conclusion that your Protestant belief is false, and that Catholicism is right. You can badmouth and insult Catholics in the comment section, but Truth hurts, your sects are fakes. Founded by man mostly Americans. If not Luther of Calvin, they are all traceable to the divorcee King Henry VIII.
