Every born again Christian has the authority to rebuke demons in the name of our Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST! Look up the Jack Chick tracts, he got it right. Roman catholic priests usually make things worse, listen to the story of Prof. Walter Veith! How to become born again: Thank JESUS CHRIST for paying for your sins on the cross and HIS resurrection on the 3rd day!!! It must come form the bottom of your heart and don't forget, JESUS is GOD, see John 1! Don't give demons a foothold, destroy all occult and cursed items and stop occult practices. Please do your own research. Also listen to former satanist Stephen Dollins!

[@caricaturecontest7899]

I agree, the reason he said he's not afraid is because he doesn't matter it's the power of Jesus fighting this.

[@markkatigbak7564]

​@@albertafarmer8638 How misinformed you are about the Catholic faith. Don't be bashful - we are children of God and followers of Christ. The presuppositions these priests go through who are in tune with Christ and teachings of the bible and are chosen by these Bishops because of their understanding of the faith. Imagine a strength trainer who has experience over the years of building strength through various exercise techniques - this trainer has experience and knowledge of proper technique and how not to inure yourself in the process. On the other hand, a person looking to do strength training from watching KZbin videos now feels confident to go to the gym and perform such exercises without sufficient experience or knowledge - I'm sure that person has a strong will power, but the lack of training - as a result, this can do more harm than good. Such as our faith in Jesus by those who understand these teachings more intricately. Now, I'm not saying you are feeble, nor am I disagreeing that with Jesus said that we have the ability to rebuke evil with Jesus's name - but keep in mind, these priests are spiritual teachers of Christ and instances like Fr. Lampert is saying need be said through these prayers, that I might add have been studied by these theologians since the church started. I pray for you, and forgive your misunderstanding. Let's not be bashful, but embrace the good that comes out of this.

@@albertafarmer8638 Refer to Dr. Scott Hahn (former Protestant), Dr. David Anders (former Protestant), and Roy Schoeman (Jewish Harvard professor). Your misinterpretation of the bible is only causing you to hate Catholics when in reality, it is the Catholic church with God's guidance that constructed the canon of the bible - the same scriptures you are interpreting to me. You take the idea of idolatry out of context - we do not praise Mary or the Saints, nor the angels - whoever is feeding you this material is only choosing to separate the Church and the Rock (Peter) that it was built upon. When the Protestant reformation happened - all these scattered churches couldn't decide what to interpret anymore. The Catholic church has maintained this doctrine, the Word of God, not to be confused but to be critically analyzed and studied - especially by Theologians. What you are doing is spreading false claims and demoralizing the origins of Christianity from its forefathers.

[@devinwemple344]

I was gripped in the clutches of lust. My life was “fine”, except dissatisfaction in all things, including intimacy with my wife. We actually had both watched porn consistently and it seemingly put a wedge between us, fueling us to desire more and more until the other could not quench it. I always new Christ would frown on the watching of porn, and understood lust as a terrible sin. But I never understood why until I had my own realization that I love my wife so much and hated this dissatisfaction coming between us. So we stopped. And it was okay for a while until the depression set in. We find strength in each other and in Christ and it gets us trough it. Our intimacy is now wonderful and it has been well over a year clean from that sin. That being said, since I’ve stopped, I’ve felt a haunting presence at times. And the darkest dreams. Recently, I was attacked and violated by an unseen entity that whispered such profanity in my ear. I felt all of its anger and hatred for me. But I prayed to Christ, and in the snap of a finger, I sprung out of bed. I was in physical pain, however. But felt so free. The pain vanished and I have thanked Christ every time I reflect on that moment. I could cry I am so grateful for His Love and Rescue. My life is for Him, and I will teach my two daughters of my mistakes and my own Revelation in the Love of Christ.

[@loreforone924]

Succubi. So glad for you, pray the Holy Rosary 🌹

[@chrisa7134]

I too was in the clutches of lust for so long. But something happened in my life not too long ago. My mother gave me a rosary and for the first time in my life I prayed it about two weeks ago. I prayed the first day and it felt so good. Then I did it the next day. And the next day. As if by magic my urges towards lust kept diminishing. And then today I went to confession for the first time in 15 or so years, and I spilled everything. When the father gave me absolution, I cried. I don’t ever want to lose this state of grace ever again. I feel reborn. Lust provoking images fill me with a sense of revulsion now. I hope this helps and honestly if you haven’t already I would schedule a confession ASAP. God bless you for admitting this to a group of internet strangers but we are brothers and sisters in our lord and I pray for you.

[@machtnichtsseimann]

My Protestant upbringing taught that merely lusting after a woman is sin, masturbation is always lust, so that's sin, etc. The Matt. 5 verse never made sense to me, because having a strong desire for someone ( i.e. lust ) is very normal, very human, how is that always a sin? So much wasted angst, shame, guilt over "lust". IMHO, it's yet another wile of the Enemy to get us to obsess over something that most often is not a sin. ( Almost always when I venture into a Christian/Catholic forum/page on this topic, the reaction is usually judgmental or hostile against me. Not exactly Christ-like. To that I would say that those who are filled with such fear and/or arrogance and pride, they have a LOT to deal with in their Flesh without pointing fingers at someone who is discussing sexuality. ) These kinds of conversations lack nuance, complexity, discussion of various interpretations. Again, IMHO, Matt 5 is dealing with coveting, actually, the very nature of plotting to steal another woman, which in context is another man's wife. Not merely lusting after another woman. ( Bad translations and subsequent bad teachings. ) To those who have had an inordinate problem with erotica/porn, with all due respect, not everyone is like you. Not everyone has some spirit trying to mount them during sleep, has nightmares, rather, they have boundaries around enjoyment and usage and keep their entertainment in perspective. Another thing: Some individuals have very high sex drives while others' libidos are low or non-existent. So? To each their own. We humans, everyone of us, are TERRIBLE at how we judge each other. Hypocrites. Inconsistent. Not discerning whether we truly have planks in our own eyes, not admitting to biases rooted in family-upbriging and traditions that might not be completely accurate and for all we know ethical across the board. One can eat meat sacrificed to idols while another would be thrown off course and stumbling in their Walk. This reality alone continues to blow my mind as a Believer. The ethical variety within the Church is partly what is healthy about our Community at large. My sincere and loving wishes to any and all who view Erotica/Porn as "sinful" and must steer clear of such things. Since you have had problems with it, then more power to you in your relationship with God and others. Maybe we can agree to disagree as to what is bad for all, what might be sin and might not be, and to let the Spirit guide you and me respectively in our individual lives and respect Him in that endeavor. In other words, let us not "Play God" with each other. ( Not saying anyone is here, but I'm bracing for it. Sorry to say. )

[@John3.16..]

Repent will all your heart and confess Jesus as your Lord and believe that he died for your sins and was resurrected on the third day and you will have eternal life. You are sealed with the Holy Spirit Ephesians 1:13-14. And understand that with Christ sacrifice, it was more than enough to give you eternal life , if you add works to it then Christ died in vain

[@chrisa7134]

@@John3.16.. you do know you’re on a Catholic exorcist video right? If sola fide were enough, then why the need for priests to exorcise? Or did Jesus not give his apostles authority to cast demons out in his name? Did he also not give the apostles authority to forgive sins when he breathed the Holy Spirit on them? (John 20: 21-23). Point being, if you believe that merely confessing your sins to the lord were enough, you are missing the key component in forgiveness, which is absolution. You do not have authority to absolve yourself of sin, and you need to cede that authority to an ordained priest lest you fall into the sin of pride. Don’t let it be misunderstood, the Lord is an endless font of mercy, but that mercy must be accessed through proper channels. One more thing, why this aversion to the rosary? Every single exorcist’s account states that the holy rosary is like a whip across satan’s face. It’s a meditation on Christ’s birth, ministry, passion, and resurrection. Why would you not avail yourself of every possible weapon against an enemy that wants to claim your soul for eternity? God bless you brother.

You’re saved by grace through faith alone period. The church is the gathering of God’s elect people who placed their faith in Christ’s atonement for salvation. They were called out of darkness into light by God. The Catholic and Orthodox Church imposes man made traditions and teachings onto the Bible. I wonder why Catholicism and the Orthodox Church are so popular in the world. It’s ironic how this person, who talks about casting out demons, is himself in a satanic cult. His word choice “state of grace” says it all. Where is holy water found in the Bible. The saved individual has no problem using biblical word choice “being filled with the Holy Spirit” how can he who is evil speak good things? Matthew 7:21 21“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

My path was winding, but it seems the only thing that captures my interest now is understanding God as much as possible. I struggle to engage with the things I used to take interest in.

God open more doors to me the moment I stop listen to everyone, and start praying for answers consistently with faith, recite the rosary, confession, mass, Charity, eucharist, read the Bible and repent. This is the key to everything that I was desperately looking for.

[@piemouth1]

From my reading on the matter, everyone is recommended to say the Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel but only a priest can say it in the context of a formal exorcism.

I use spiritual warfare daily. I pray for people I walk by or see. I always pray out loud sometimes under my breath. It's strange usually with younger people between 12 and 18 I will always pray first that God binds any strong hold, addiction, pride ,fear and anything that is not of God to bind the spirits and cast them out in the name of Jesus. Then I pray for blessings of love peace and joy upon there lives and last of all I pray they accept Jesus as Lord and saviour and repent of there sins and be saved in the name of Jesus. I do this often daily. I don't care who Muslims blacks whites old people young people and especially families with children. Some people I pray for suddenly I will get confused and it's hard for me to think of what to pray for I will get dizzy and tired. Then I know something is up with the person and I have to go and worship and plead the blood of Jesus and pray for the Holy Spirit. It's very strange how powerful prayer is.

Even invited some non Catholic friends. He is eloquent and knowledgeable, I'm happy to see that he is gaining platform. Thanks Father Vincent!

First of all Tolkien was not only a deep thinker and full of fantazy writer, but he does not promote evil and atractiveness of occult practices, on the contrary his books are sorrowfull presentation of the reality of our world where evil fights the good, and importance of doing right choices in order to conquer evil. In spiritual language we can say that he was a very prophetic person. Besides, he was a true christian although from the Anglican Church.

[@David-hs1pi]

He Was Catholic not Anglican his friend CS Lewis was Anglican though

It’s like in Latin, it takes to another level. I feel as if I’m speaking in angel language.

[@laurentroland6847]

@@dominicpardo4783 In the Lord of the Rings lore, One Almighty God creates and ultimately holds dominion over the world, the main villains are essentially fallen angels or servants of fallen angels, and all magic in the series is either evil and originating in evil spirits (performed only by villains) or good and originating in the servants of the "God" by the God's will. Plus, every moral of the series is in accordance with Catholicism and righteous action is advocated for throughout, while the wickedness of much of fantasy is outright condemned (like in the case of Saruman, a wizard who dealt with dark and demonic powers, becoming a main antagonist). The only good "wizard" in the series is Gandalf, who is really an angelic being in disguise serving ultimately the "God" and who, after fighting a DEMON in self-sacrifice is sent back to earth because his task of serving God was not complete. I understand that if you're unfamiliar with the backstory of The Lord of the Rings, it may seem pagan or ungodly, but it in my opinion is actually fantastic Catholic-supporting reading material. kind of a rant, I know, its just such a common misconception that im always hearing how all fantasy is inherently ungodly.

You seemed to insinuate that him reading Lord of the Rings wasn't holy, as it was a work of fantasy.

Drunkenness inhibits our ability to make well-informed decisions by its depressive nature. Dark spirits, no doubt, can take advantage of our compromised wills to do such things. That is one reason of many why drunkenness is a sin; it tampers with the gift of free will

If this ilk of thing exists, it would be a type of intuition to sense a type of subtle energy that is not, at least yet, scientifically observable, and substances simply remove inhibitions and blocks on that people learn throughout childhood.
