The Eucharist: A Clear and Complete Teaching

Please pray for me my friends. Beginning this Pentecost I will resume the public ministry of working on more traditional style youtube videos.
I had taken time to pray/dicern and work extra jobs to be able to raise the quality and production value of my original work. Please, pray for me and know that I am praying for all of you. Until then may you enjoy some of the recent presentations that I offered in my home town. God bless you all!

[@Marianus.Marki_75]

I am a Catholic from India. Really Eucharist is the centre of Christianity. I attend every mass seriously. You are great Gabriel.

[@davidmorante853]

This helped me to realize that the Eucharist is GOD!!

[@johannajohanna110]

David Morante me too

[@billywest56]

If you didn't know that already then I don't think this would have helped. You knew that the eucharist is God already. EVERYONE does

[@amandafsampaio7223]

God bless you, Gabi. May the Blessed Mother protect you always.

[@gabiafterhours]

+Amanda F I appreciate that. Thank you! Mother Mary be with you always.

[@Dan-bc9nx]

I’m going to start greeting snd respecting our Lord in Holy Communion at every Church from now on...

[@snowdiahmambondiani2368]

Really really really! I am in tears now for all the moments l have not taken the EUCHARIST seriously. Lord have mercy! Thank you Gab.

[@lolyverastegui-galvan1156]

I JUST FOUND YOU AND YOUR VIDEOS ARE AWESOME! THANK YOU!

[@gabiafterhours]

+dolores galvan Praise God. Pray for me!

[@heatherfeather1293]

I really wish churches would bring back the altar rail. I think it is so beautiful to kneel while receiving Our Lord. This is kinda frowned upon in a regular communion line.

[@gabiafterhours]

The tide is slowly turning. God bless you! Be not afraid!

[@1Hope4All]

Amen! I so agree about the altar rail. We should all kneel to receive our Lord.

[@missLech]

You are fortunate to inform us, I gained a deeper understanding of the Eucharist after viewing this 🌹

[@MariaSilva-br8sp]

Thanks for all of your highly informative videos. All Catholics need to be sufficiently educated to keep the faith alive and convert the world.

[@gabiafterhours]

+Maria Silva God bless you! Yes we need to know our faith so that we can love it.

[@MariaSilva-br8sp]

+GabiAfterHours, what can I do if someone is doing witchcraft against me and my family? I am going to Mass and receiving The Body of Jesus every other day. My son however, has not had his first Communion yet.

[@gabiafterhours]

+Maria Silva Some might say what I am about to say is over board, but I will give you my frank and honest advice. Always remain in the state of Grace. Go to Confession frequently... 1/week or every two weeks... pray 4 rosaries a day... sprinkle holy water on your children every night before bed. I promise if you do these things every witch in the world can't touch you. I do a modified version of this (more), because I know that people try and put hexes on me... and to be honest I don't think twice about them. Be not afraid. God is more powerful than every devil. Be a Saint and be not afraid.

[@MariaSilva-br8sp]

+GabiAfterHours thank you so much for your great advise. God Bless you and your family.

[@lizrygier5527]

Fantastic Video, nobody explains these very important truths like you do. Extremely worthwhile information, I wish I had know this earlier, it completely changes your life for the better. Thank you, please continue the wonderful work for the good of the world.

[@gabiafterhours]

Liz, thank you so much for taking the time to watch this video. Your comment is very kind. May the Lord bless you now and for eternity.

[@mariateresa9965]

Wow!When you said," Jesus,Jesus," tears fell off my eyes.I have learned a lot from you.Thank you.

[@gabiafterhours]

God bless you!

[@missLech]

I cant stop watching all of your videos God bless you

[@lld3007]

It was God working through you and your videos that got me to kneel and receive communion on the tongue every single time. Now my parents do it as well, and I have seen a growing number of parishioners at my church receiving kneeling on the tongue since then. I once had a deacon pat me on the shoulder while I knelt to receive communion, so I think receiving this way, especially for young people like us, encourages priests and the clergy and shows them that we respect them as a representative of Christ, and are not worthy to touch Christ in the host ourselves. Thank you for all you do, it has such a huge impact.

[@gabiafterhours]

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! The Holy Spirit is really working. Your example is very powerful. Keep it up :D God bless you!

[@Naaanuk]

Thank you Gabby,very informative and spiritual.God bless

[@annettefowler4704]

I never get tired of listing to you! Gabi.

[@RyanPenza]

God bless you man! ;) You're the source of motivation that we need, especially here in my country where there's so much lack of reverence! But, like we talked, I am drawn to 'the place' where reverence is crucial! ;) 'Sweet Home Alabama... Lord, I'm coming home to you!' :)

[@gabiafterhours]

Amen! I hope you are able to meet with the friars face to face.

[@jamiesulit9365]

i definitely learned about the eucharist!

[@letmefindyou]

Gabi, thank you for this video. I now have a deeper knowledge of the Eucharist. What I was missing in this video is to see the audience that is listening to this lecture. At least a small glance at them, just to see their happy or concerned faces and how big is the audience. Other than that the video and quality is great! God bless you now and forever!

[@SmithsnMoz]

This is AWESOME!! GOD BLESS YOU GABRIEL!! .. Absolutely Love listening to the TRUTH!!

[@ashleyvince7]

Most blessed be God forever really, truly, substantially present in the Most Holy Eucharist. Amen

[@gtaylor178]

FYI there are only three ministries in Holy Mother Church, these are; bishop, priest and decon.

[@jeffjimenez3639]

Cardinal Arinze: "If you can find a document that says to remove kneelers...I will give you a turkey." No turkeys have been given.

[@peaveawwii1]

Jeff Jimenez I doesn’t exist

[@gadoladonai8296]

Jeff Jimenez it’s like going to party and not keeping plates, I’m sure many guests will return and many will have a great time. I used to feel foolish kneeling in some churches that didn’t have kneelers. Then I realized that those who removed the kneelers wanted people to feel silly and soon all reverence would be lost and the memory of what the Eucharist is would also be gone. I kneel down now knows that I am not doing anything wrong, kneelers are needed like plates are needed for dinner.

[@roobear5357]

Wonderful presentation!

[@tesschavit3009]

God bless you brother, thank you

[@TF80s]

Watching your videos makes me feel so ashamed for my tepid practice of the faith for all these years. If only we all had had someone with your passion for the faith instructing us back in our early years..the church would be thriving.

[@annettefowler4704]

THANK YOU SO MUCH.!

[@CarrieP-W]

Excellent. Thank you, God bless you.

[@annakelleher7932]

Thank you so much for making this video. It is truly a blessing. You gave such a great presentation. It truly touch my heart. Yes Our Lord is truly present. Most of us have not really understood this. Many not so good teachings. Could you please recommend a book on the Catholic Church Cannon Law? I would love to read it and add to my understanding and deep understanding of the Faith. God Bless you.

[@lmonetenegro]

Amazing! God bless you 🙏🙏🙏

[@raphaelc4091]

Hi Gab! I hope someday you could come to Sarawak, Kuching to give us a talk more about Catholicism.

[@chupi7972]

I hate it when everyone else in my church receive communion on their hands and when I stick out my tongue everyone watch me like i'm crazy. it's a struggle every time.

[@reubenkeyz5131]

ok ay Never be ashamed when you’re absolutely right.

[@felipeibarra6700]

Great Teaching👍🙏

[@VO_JayRedding]

I get distracted on my way into mass and forget to genuflect. And that really bothers me because I should have been doing so when I was a kid. But also when I was a kid the Tabernacle was in the chapel in the back. We now have a beautiful golden Tabernacle on the alter where our Lord should be.

[@tesschavit3009]

Amen

[@ChristiDea]

Ya know....it would be super awesome if you embraced the end cards option and just gave us a link to TrueFaithTV. Just go into your creator studio, click "Promote another channel" and put in the channel url. You can also put these series that you do in a playlist and direct us automatically to the next video in the playlist. Just saves us die hard fans a little time. Praying for you!

[@gabiafterhours]

EXCELLENT ADVICE! I will start embracing them moving forward :) Thank you for the encouragement :)

[@ChristiDea]

My pleasure. Spending the day in intercessory prayer. God has really been putting you on my heart. Praying for all your endeavors today Gabriel

[@vanessacleary9411]

Can I get a copy of your notes? Especially those that quote scripture? I am the only Catholic in my family and keeping those with me when I visit would be super helpful.

[@praveenjose1299]

Dear Brother please make video on Fasting ,abstinence,mortification

[@Maryorra]

In India, we Catholics (Eastern and Roman both ) we now down on our knees

[@elainaluna]

Dear Gabi, Do you attend the Traditional Latin Mass? Or have you ever? They are very reverent toward Jesus. Sincerely, Elaina Luna

[@gabiafterhours]

+Elaina Luna Yes I have heard of it. It is very good, but I believe that the battle for the most souls takes place in the new Mass. So I will continue to fight for it. God bless you!

[@SmithsnMoz]

+GabiAfterHours .. I attend the new mass as well. But in all honesty, ... Why did we need a "New Mass"?.. was the "Old mass" not good enough? .. I remember as a young boy back in the 1970s, how everyone at holy mass would kneel before receiving our lords body in the Holy Eucharist. I remember approaching the communion rail and seeing the priest with an alter boy making sure that any particle of Christ in the Holy Eucharist would not fall to the ground... There was much more reverence. . . But I do know what you mean, we should stand firm for Christ right where we are.. God bless!!

[@DavidOrtiz-fd2lb]

Gabi is there any way you have the documents you talked about , so I can print them out for my catholic club on campus !

[@VO_JayRedding]

Looks like bread and tastes like it too. But it's our Lord

[@Fa-pb5nn]

💗👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏👍👍

[@dennisjacob1081]

I feel like I want to give up on Jesus.

[@gadoladonai8296]

How did our Church do away with the altar rail, traditional mass and everything that goes with it? Whoever was responsible will not go unpunished for destroying the faith of many in the Eucharist.

[@varkeyvincent981]

Sir, Could you please answer my doubt regarding holy mass celebration What is The Catholic Church's opinion on 'layman celebrating holy mass by watching holy mass videos' ? Will that give the layman(viewer) the graces ? ( If the layman can't find or reach any churches physically )

[@gabiafterhours]

There is no substitute for attending Mass... that being said if one is truly incapable of attending the Lord is all knowing and merciful. You can still make a spiritual communion and there is still benefit in uniting yourself to the Mass on television... how much grace nobody knows.

[@varkeyvincent981]

Thank you Sir

[@bradleesargent]

I have been out of work since July do you know anyone who is looking for a programmer who works from home. Please pray for me to get a job soon.

[@m.935]

Why do priests drink AND eat both then? Why didn't Jesus told us to eat bread or wine, if it doesn't matter? Why did he differentiate His Blood from His Body? P.S. I believe with my heart what you just said, that Jesus is complete, flesh and blood in the Eucharist. I just have to have this mental argument in my pocket.

[@gabiafterhours]

The two species show that this is a sacrifice. Death occurs when a person's body and blood are separated. This distinction emphasizes the sacrifice. ALSO... we must remember that the apostles to whom Jesus was speaking were the first priests. I hope that helps!

[@m.935]

@@gabiafterhours Thank you so much for this answer, and for simplifying it to me. Of course, it all makes sense now, and it is so beautiful. Thank you God for priests and bless them all! I'm sure we would be so lost without them in our faith, I know I certainly would. God bless you and thank you again for the answer.

[@DragoTyr]

Where can I find the canons listed in this presentation?

[@gabiafterhours]

Google... Canons of the Council of Trent Holy Eucharist

[@Edgar_99302]

You never use the word “bread” when describing the Eucharist or the consecrated host. You also don’t use the words “crumbs” when describing the particles of the host, you KNOW the truth brother: there is NO bread after consecration, only Jesus. You are one and far between. God bless you! Pray for, my name is Edgar.

[@VO_JayRedding]

I can't Receive from the Cup because I'm a Recovering Alcoholic.

[@InTheWind_]

+GabiAfterHours ~ How would you answer someone asking that, "If the bread and wine are truly Christ's flesh and blood, how can anyone be allergic to either of them?" Because I have no idea how to respond to that.

[@gabiafterhours]

+Michelle Therese It is transubstantiation. It is a change it the substance and not in the form. The outward appearances/properties of bread and wine remain. The physical qualities... the look, the smell, the taste, composition all remain, but the substance changes. In fact when the qualities of the bread and wine cease to exist the real presence of Christ Whole and Entire also ceases to exist. So if their is a host that is dissolved in an ablution cup or particles that are trapped in the altar linens... they soak and when the particles completely dissolve and lose their physical properties the Lords presence no longer remains. The following example is a terrible example and I don't like to use it, but it works... So there is a movie "The Shaggy Dog". In that movie a man and a dog switch who they are... The physical properties of the dog and the man remain, but in the movie you have what looks like a man acting like a dog... and now what appears to be a dog is really a man.... I know that is a terrible example, but it is the best example I can give that might help your imagination. SO here is this dog... people might be allergic to the dog, but really although it looks like a dog and smells like a dog it is really the man there... AGAIN THIS IS A TERRIBLE EXAMPLE... and in no way replicates what happens at the most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

[@InTheWind_]

+GabiAfterHours Thank you for your explanation, Shaggy Dog and all. :-) I struggle a lot with the often complicated wording in the CCC and other writings! So I need to become familiar with the differences of "substance" and "form" ... I'm going to jot this all down in my journal. Ok, well all except the Shaggy Dog part ;-) When people ask me *why* Jesus gave us bread and wine instead of the form of flesh and blood I say He is merciful and doesn't want us to be disgusted and grossed out. I'm not sure how theological that explanation is but when I was first becoming Catholic it made sense as I sat there contemplating the "Circle Jesus" in "that clock thing" while participating in that mysterious "adoration" time at my then parish church. And it's what I tell our kids too, they are ages 7, and 6 (twins) but the first holy communion for their age group has been delayed a year so I get extra time to explain. "Because Jesus is kind and doesn't want to gross us out" seems to fly well with them too. :-)) God bless! PLEASE pray for Scotland, and up here where we are on the once Holy Islands, now pretty much Secular Islands of Orkney. Please pray that the Faith returns here, there is so much pain and darkness here. A lot of lost sheep and being Catholic is not in any way something people want to become due to the post-Reformation culture, VERY hostile. So it all seems hopeless. Yet GOD IS GOOD and my Orkney husband became Catholic last year!! I hope it's ok to be greedy for MORE SOULS!!! C'mon, God... 10 years here praying my head off and ONE person enters the Church? **Weep** The advice that more visits to Jesus results in more graces is depressing though: I am a disabled Veteran and can't drive to town (we are farmers) so daily Mass is out and Eucharist adoration is very very very rare for me. :-( Check out the awesome monks here too: papastronsay.blogspot.co.uk/ Yours in Christ and Our Lady, ~Michelle Therese (American, faux Scot)

[@dennisjacob1081]

When you're a Christian you're always alone.

[@jeanneh6361]

At our church, other lay people administer communion. I was taught that the two fingers of the priest could pass out communion. What are your thoughts?

[@staceypace189]

Because we hold to the truth of the institution of the Eucharist biblically, shouldn’t we receive BOTH bread and wine at Mass as Jesus presented at the last supper? Not offering both seems to me contrary to scripture. Additionally, not carrying out the full prescript of the Last Supper yet taking John 6 literally seems hypocritical.

[@billywest56]

It's actually john 6 verse 66

[@billywest56]

Jesus said "Take this ALL OF YOU and drink of it; for this is the chalice of my blood." Why would he say "all of you" if he meant only the priest? Either way even if both species have the entirety of christ he told us to do BOTH. SOOOOOOO we ARE being denied the full Eucharist.

[@peaveawwii1]

Great video. I am subscribed........Why do you call Protestants brothers and sisters when they are heretics.....

[@gabiafterhours]

Because I am charitable. They believe in Jesus Christ... they just need somebody in a compelling and convincing way to introduce them to His Church. Have you ever won somebody over by attacking them? I haven't.

[@felipeibarra6700]

It's like Today! People Don't Accepted.

[@jerome96114]

"There is something very special about Catholics: We believe that Jesus really is in the Eucharist." That is not something specific to you. Aside from you - and the orthodox churches - we Lutherans DO believe that as well. And even traditional Calvinist churches to a certain degree. Only Zwinglian Churches and pseudo-calvinist ones, that are actually closer to Zwingli than to Calvin, don't. Real Presence =/= Transsubstantiation. Real Presence is confessed by a lot of protestant churches. That being said Luther never totally ruled out the possibility of transubstantiation, despite leaning towards Consubstantiation. Actually he went a similar rout as the orthodox churches, concerning the Eucharist: It is a mystery that we cannot fully understand. - As long as Christ really is present and as long as he comes to us "in, with and under the bread", Lutheranism doesn't care how exactly said coming works. It only is important that the sacrament DOES work.

[@gabiafterhours]

+jerome96114 One thing I would recommend you look into is where does your minister receive the authority to turn bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ. I don't want to start an argument, but really with an open mind and open heart explore what is true and be willing to leave everything. The Catholic priest receives his authority by the sacrament of Holy Orders which is conferred on him by a bishop who can trace his authority all the way back to Jesus and the Apostles. This is something that the thousand different denominations don't have. God bless you and I will pray for you. Be open to all of the possibilities. May your faith and life be rooted in objective truths.

[@reubenkeyz5131]
