I am a traditional Catholic priest and offer only the Traditional Roman Rite of Mass. Through the years I have had much to do with what I call "recovering charismatics". This movement is DANGEROUS! Most "charismatics" start out looking for a deeper relationship with Almighty God and finish in a state of total spiritual dishevelment and even mental illness. Catholic Tradition can bring some out of danger before it's too late. Others slip deeper and deeper into this dark hole of deception which the charismatic movement creates. It's a tragedy of epic proportion in that many bishops and priests see this "movement" as the future of the Church! Only a return to the full Tradition of the Church is the future of the Catholic Faith.

[@paulkiernan3256]

Gifts can be couterfit but also authentic. They even thought the apostles had too much to drink. Paul says in church a teaching is better than tongues because it can be understood but he does not deny the gift of tongues which comes in different forms. Tongues can be like a liturgical symbol of the mysterious work of the Holy Spirit. In our left brained west, tongues can help us open to the miraculous ways of the Spirit. Pastoral leadership is needed to oversee the practice of the gifts. Let's not throw out the baby with the dirty bath water. Some get gifts in private prayer before ever going to a meeting so not always mass hysteria.

Thank you for remaining true to the Magisterium. I have attended the Latin Mass for+- 3 years and my life and outlook on life have changed radically, for the better. God bless you and thank you.

[@terribradley3190]

Absolutely Fr! Turning back to tradition is the only way to turn this ship around. The Holy Spirit is alive and well in the real and TRADITIONAL Catholic Church. THIS is where you will find the Holy Spirit. FULL STOP.

[@MillionthUsername]

The outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the charisms are Tradition. It's part of the normal Christian life. To say that the Holy Spirit and His gifts are "DANGEROUS" in all caps is a very strange thing to say. By whatever 'logic' you are using there, being Catholic is also DANGEROUS because you are dealing with sinful men combined with the supernatural. Would you like to see Kennedy do a seven part series on the dangers of being Catholic? Would it be just fine with you if he used the same sort of titles and graphics as he used to advertise these hit pieces which you seem to have pleased you? Have you seen the one with "MINDLESS" written across it? Remember the one with "CULT" written on it? That would go great with "DANGERS OF THE CATHOLIC FAITH" as a title, though I prefer, following Kennedy's lead, "THE DARK HISTORY OF THE CATHOLIC FAITH." It's more sensational and preps people to get into a frenzy of hearing and sharing in detraction, lies, slander, libel, etc. Give us a teaching on the sin of slander, Father.

[@hildahilpert5018]

In the early church , in the days when Sts.Peter and Paul walked the earth people might have spoken in tongues at time.However the apostles could decent if from the Holy Spirit or not.Wr have not done this in the Church since those days, if it was done much at all .Never heard of Lutheran's, Anglicans Presbyterian s or even Methodists doing it.Even the protestant reformers like Martin Luther, John Calvin, and others of that time period would urge caution because it might be by God,.or it could be the devil and witchcraft.

My mom was a cradle Catholic. In the 1970s she was swept up by the Charismatic movement and became a Protestant before I was born. She has a psychiatric disorder since childhood, and the “Holy Spirit” hasn’t stopped “talking” to her incessantly for almost 50 years. I was raised Protestant (Evangelical and then Episcopalian after my parents divorced), and I thank God I married a lapsed Catholic who reverted to the faith at the same time I was converting, and eventually we found the Traditional Latin Mass.

The charismatic movement was overwhelmingly emotional. The Holy Catholic Faith is for thinking people, using the faculty of reason, to pursue faith. Fides et ratio! St. Thomas Aquinas taught the world to apply reason with faith in the pursuit of sanctity. 😊

[@lorrainepec7577]

Yup! JESUS was emotional too! Esp. throwing those money changers out of the temple etc . Faith & Reason is the key to everything for Catholic Charismatics. I returned to my faith and love for Christ, His Church and the Sacraments through the Catholic Charismatic Movement. Praise & thanks be to God.

[@OgeronimonominoregO]

False dichotomy. There is nothing wrong with human beings having emotions - especially when they experience a touch from God Himself letting them know how much He loves them, what He has saved them from, and what He plans for their eternal destiny! Yes, it can be overwhelming - but in a good way. It beats being overwhelmed by evil, sin, and death. Emotions are part of our make up. You will find that in Aquinas as well.

I nearly lept out of my skin. Their 'leader', told them that God couldn't here them...they screamed even louder.

[@MillionthUsername]

"Charismatics have opened themselves up to oppression & possession" How?

[@anzot6903]

​​@@MillionthUsername are you genuinely asking? Or trolling? For anyone else who bothers to read this in good faith: it is common knowledge that demons (or any angelic beings, actually, so that would include guardian angels) cannot affect the soul proper, but CAN affect the body and it's faculties, including emotional states, the imagination, and the senses. The demons specifically use this influence to manipulate our perception of reality through the senses, or to effect some disordered emotional reaction to certain stimuli, or to bring to mind certain images in the imagination for some nefarious end. The spiritual theologians have always insisted that any sensible consolation (including imaginings, emotions, etc.) that seem to come unprompted should be regarded with suspicion and cast aside. While God CAN work through these faculties, it is much more likely that it is our own fallen flesh or demonic influence that is coming into play. To intentionally open oneself up to so called Charismatic experiences, which all fall under the domain of the body, is to at best be self-deluded and at worst invite demonic meddling. Edit: a note on guardian angels - while they have the same abilities as the demons, they actually respect us and so do not alter our sense images, imagination, or bodily dispositions without us specifically asking for it AND as long as it is the will of God, which is why it is important to pray to them - there's not a whole lot they can do for us unless we're willing to let them.

[@drhumupower8570]

@@MillionthUsername by thinking themselves as having spiritual gifts and powers that they don't have. By incredulously chasing prophecy. By determining that their "spiritual gifts" are higher than and more trustworthy than the Church. I've seen this happen and to some extent I've had first hand exposure to it. What most charismatics don't understand is that they need ten times the formation in their faith than they actually have in order to discern spirits. Assuming that most of what goes on in the charismatic circles is actually of the Holy Spirit, and not human invention, they are still playing with fire. When poorly catechized people start chasing around spirits without discerning them, it's only a matter of time before Satan and his minions appear to them as angels of light. They WILL have these encounters. If you think the average pew sitting charismatic can outwit demons, you are fooling yourself. And if they have allowed pride to weasel its way into their spiritual lives, due to the fact that they have all these new special spiritual gifts, they are in peril. Those demons are going to find that going after those charismatics easier than shooting fish in a barrel.

@@nicolamcostello This is danger of charismatic mentality- it has prejudice of positivity towards manifestations. All charismatics I met firmly believed they were communicating with God never doubting it. Because they all thought of themselves as good sincere and God loving people. That´s the same in new age. I spent two decades in New Age before converting to catholicism and you can say the same. I never met bad people in new age. They were all super nice, good, decent, kundalini, yoga, buddhism improved their life and relationships, they got out of addictions, got more loving peaceful - this means nothing. When you worship incorrect God no matter how your life gets you have no salvation. If you worship correct God but incorrectly it will slowly change your mindset and take you away from true God. Cahrismatic movement will lead you more into protestant mentality, in worse cases syncretism and new age... There need to be combination of both true God and true worship. If you notice - you are doing what is the root cause for existence of this moevement. The moment catholics stopped believeing in real presence, turned to human rather than God and made their relationship with God above God - they started to be hungry. It´s not about us - it´s about God. We are not the center -it doesn´t matter if we consider ourselves decent or not. We need to worship true God it true way. When I was in new age no matter how decent I felt and how much I loved my false idea of God I had no salvation because it´s not about my emotions. It´s about sacrifice of Jesus. Now I worship correct God and have salvation. But if I worship incorrectly it will slowly take me in bad places. Into protestant mentality which is distanced from ture God because it fell away from His church. Or worse into gnosticism and new age. Menatlity is very similar. It´s always about me and God me and Holy spirit me and my gifts me and my fatih. No. God is everything we are nothing. It´s His worship not our craziness. There are no decent people only sinners. God saves, we are loosing ourselves. Us being decent is illusion and thinking manifestations are from God because I am in love with myself -no. I too was haunted by demonic. THe mentality is very similar.

@@terezka5340 the original poster is the one who said the Charismatics he knew were good people whose faith in God he didn't question. If anyone grows in virtue and away from sinful behavior, God's grace is implicitly at work in them even if the person is not worshiping God in the exact right form. Hopefully, they will learn about the right form of worship, which will help them even more. But, the devil does not lead people to get out of addictions, violence, anger, or other vices.

The first time, it’s amazing. Over time, it lasts less and less until higher and higher doses are required. If continued, it can lead into dark places. Use Our Lord’s test. Look at the fruits, not the feelings.

It has occurred to me that this movement has taken millions of Catholics out of the church into heresy

[@paulkiernan3256]

My experience is that si may of faithful parish workers attend the charismatic prayer meeting. Gifts can be couterfit but also authentic. They even thought the apostles had too much to drink. Paul says in church a teaching is better than tongues because it can be understood but heroes not deny the gift of tongues which comes in different forms. Tongues can be like a liturgical symbol ofthe mysterious work of the Holy Spirit. In our left brained west, tongues can help us open to the miraculous ways of the Spirit. Pastoral leadership is needed to overseeing the practice of the gifts. Let's not throw out the baby with the dirty bath water. Some get gifts in private prayer before ever going to a meeting so not always mass hysteria.

It has always been taught, by the Bible and by Tradition, that the gift of tongues means being able to communicate the Truth in real languages. God works primarily through His Sacraments and by holy obedience. Christ was obedient even unto death on the Cross. The goal of life is to honour God and become holy by His Grace. The rewards are...more Crosses, Holy Peace, and eventually, Heaven. Eternal Joy in Heaven. Not spiritual thrills on earth.

Kennedy, when I first came back to The Church in the mid-nineties (I live in Ottawa), called St. Mary's because it was just down the street from me. The first strange thing was that Father had people approach the sanctuary during The Consecration. Then, after receiving Holy Communion, all of a sudden, people started babbling. I went there twice. After the second time, I figuratively picked up my skirts and fled. I was pointed by someone in the direction of the FSSP Parish and never darkened the door of the charismatic church again. There was something wrong going on there.

[@teresasnamesake4784]

I went to a charismatic prayer grouo in the 1970s because I was invited by a priest to participate. I went through the life in the spirit series and was "baptized in the spirit." We thought we were praising God during our prayer time and that the holy Spirit was speaking through us. During the prayer meeting, one person would stand up and speak a message that he/she was hearing from the Lord. The messages were usually a message of love and encouragement, not anything specific telling people what to do exactly. Unfortunately that was during a difficult time in my life and I was living in sin, but other than Mass once a month at the prayer meetings, we didn't have the sacraments. There were priests there, but I dont remember going to confession. I later went to another prayer meeting (Catholic), and we were mostly about praise and worship, although we did occasionally pray over people for healing if they asked us to. There was good fellowship and a feeling of belonging, but I didn't learn much about my Faith. We were encouraged to love God, worship God, and do His Will, although it was a little subjective as to what God's Will was... kinda left up to the individual to descern. It wasn't until I read St Therese story of a soul that I started to better understand what living a life of holiness was

I grew up in the Catholic Charismatic "Community" in Phoenix Az. My parents were "coordinators" of the Phoenix group and went to Duquesne University for the first Charismatic Conference. They knew Kevin and Dorothy Ranaghan (my family is from South Bend, Indiana like them and we had them to our house many times) and all of the founders of the movement. It rose out of the prayer groups around the country. It was Catholic and Protestant at the beginning, and at some point the Protestants were told the groups were going to become open to Catholics only. Unfortunately, they had some support from Bishops and Cardinals. Needless to say, I grew up in this, but left when I turned 18. I'm 59 now.

However I now attend the TLM (FSSP). For many of us who lived through Vatican II, CCR kept us in the Church at a time when we were bereft of our beloved Catholic Church. CCR consoled us and educated us in Scripture and spontaneous prayer, praise and worship, for which I’m sincerely grateful. But it was being Catholic to the core that kept me away from all the “flakey” stuff. Kennedy, please get Ralph Martin on sometime!

I've never known Ralph Martin to teach anything heretical - in fact I believe he was a great combatant against heresies & novelties many years ago & I've seen him rightfully vocal against the similar problems of antipope Bergoglio. Although I'm not really a follower of Ralph Martin - I respect him and think it would be good for Kennedy's efforts to connect with him. And if need be - challenge Ralph. I'm confident he would be humble enough to accept constructive criticism AND that Kennedy might learn something. All for the good of Holy Mother Church.

Kennedy, EXCELLENT session with Fr. Murr! I am fascinated with this subject since I have older friends in my prayer group who believe they can pray in tongues.

Apparently, this is how they got the ability to speak in tongues which when they do it, it sounds worse than baby talk and literally demonic! They do not do it often unless it’s for a healing so as to lay hands on the sick member of our group as if they have the power to heal. Just because priests attended this seminar, they believe it is truth. That’s so demonic. After watching this episode, I don’t feel that I can even pray with these people anymore or take them seriously!

"Thank you so much for confirming my suspicions that Charismatic speaking in tongues is not of God!" Kennedy has no authority in the Church. And he is a serial liar and slanderer, so I wouldn't trust him if I were you. He is one of the worst examples of a fake Catholic I have ever seen. Just a day or two ago he invented a new 'Catholic' doctrine where he says you're not allowed to say that the Lord did something for you. To justify this, he mangled a text from the Council of Trent on justification, which doesn't apply to what he was trying to say was a "teaching of the Church." He tries to bully and shame people into lying about others and degrading them while also mocking the Holy Spirit. Wake up.

[@OgeronimonominoregO]

Praying in tongues is not demonic. It's a gift of the Holy Spirit. Healing is also a gift of the Spirit, and it is not a sin to pray for healing. No one in the Renewal is claiming that they can heal people of their own power. Rather, they are praying for the Lord to heal people.

As they said then - I 'lost my faith.' Actually my Faith had abandoned me. I wasn't aware then that Duquesne U had become a liberal bastion. What little i heard about the 'charismatic' movement back then, repulsed me. The undisciplined emotionalism seemed demonic to my young mind - and still does. Spent most of my life outside the Church - and of course I would never have gone to any Protestant church. Now in my mid-'70s I'm trying to find solid ground within the Church.

There was a very creepy dark underbelly of alcoholism and abuse, and i am sure i dont know the whole of all that goes on. All i know is we would use their community center for gatherings now and then and more than once, we felt so creeped out by an unseen presence in the building, that we would leave and go pray the rosary outside. This was as teenagers. Now I have children of my own. We still get invitations to the evenrs there, and I refuse to bring my children near that community. Edit to add: A memory: at 14 years old, I attended a Life in the Spirit retreat at this same POP community center. An older woman, in fact, the grandmother of my close friend, prayed over all of us and insisted we all had the gift of tongues. I was confused and went along with it as i had no idea what it was about. I do not in fact, have any gift to speak angelic tongues.

I remember the old paper version of Crisis Magazine back in the 1980s talking about Medjugorje. My late mom’s father was a Pentecostal preacher and so she was deeply suspicious about the apparitions. Everything that Crisis reported about the place confirmed that it was actually a business venture of the “seers” in partnership with the Charismatics. The disobedience in that place is shocking. I’ve heard it described as Fatima for the poorly catechized. It’s designed to fleece believers and convince them that “gifts of the Spirit” can be had with ease.

St.Paul was happy that he spoke in tongues more so than anyone else in his time, I wonder if he's been surpassed by many these days. 23 So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and inquirers or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind? 27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, two-or at the most three-should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret. 28 If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and to God. (1 Cor. 14: 23, 27-28).

​@marekeos they would not be welcome in my home until they change their ways.

Thank you for this information it is so necessary I am a intersessor and Jesus put this on my soul thank you for conferring this for me

[@OgeronimonominoregO]

Surely you are not hearing from Jesus if you think that mocking the Holy Spirit and His gifts is something good. Please read St. Paul on the gift of tongues and also the Catechism.

Does anybody remember the first (or a very early) World Youth Day with JPII sitting in his big chair on the stage while the entire place went silent followed by a loud hum, possibly a chant-like "oohhhmmmm..." that overtook the venue? JPII, looking out over the crowd quietly says... "Ah, charismatic moment...."

[@loist9022]

Great idea! I agree.

[@moonbeam127tmiller5]

As I'm listening to you Father! THE DEVIL for SURE! That is the first thing I Felt; as Soon as I first saw it! It was on TV with the Protistants! It is exactly what goes on with improper meditation in for instance with yoga!!!

[@sleepystar1638]

this is how i talk to my 6 month old

[@simonewilliams7224]

I lived in St Joseph’s Parish in Houston in the 1970-1980’s. And happened to attend such masses there, I went 3 times and I knew it was wrong and never went back. I then went all the way to St. Michael’s in far west of town from then on. But never felt welcome their either it was a parish of the very rich who were constantly parading and extolling their personal attributes, and accomplishments, and contributions. That’s when I could not fine a Catholic Church that was WORSHIP, praise and prayer. I traveled extensively at the time and we out of New York, London and Paris. I could find T L M’s these places and was so upset that I could not find them in the USA at the time.

[@teresabailey7857]

O my...I did this! Not to this extreme.but i went to a class like this it was once a week of about 2 months we finished ourclass standing in a room and just as they lead us to let the Holy Spirit speack through you, they guided us o. How to roll our tongues! . I trusted the Church! I Never continued this...but I willingly did this! Father do I need confess? I don't want to have offended our Jesus over this...I was so in love with Jesus and boy was I hungry for truth that I joined everything..I was on a high learning truths I fell deeper in love with Jesus and Mary the more I learned..thank God for not allowing me to stay in this movement! I was so naive and did Not pray for guidance and discernment. Jesus eventually lead me to the TLM! THANKS BE TO GOD!

[@loist9022]

Your intentions were good. I always say, when in doubt, confess. Because even if you haven't committed a sin, it's better to be safe than sorry. Your priest can advise you. Thank God that you are in TLM.

[@artsiecrafty4164]

I’m glad I listened to this all the way to the end!❤

[@patriciamathews5975]

Yes, Father. In my quest to rediscover the traditional Catholic Church of my childhood before VII, I wandered through several Protestant Churches. One of these Churches was the Assemblies of God. My assessment of the false tongues phenomena is that it's connected to the flesh. The spirit of lust or a spirit of pride seemed to always be present. The tongues are self generating. The original (real) Tongues manifested to the Apostles & Disciples in the Upper room is a spirit of boldness, and selflessness. But the perverted spirit takes the manifestation into a selfish realm and turns it inward.

[@OgeronimonominoregO]

No, the gift of tongues is not self-generating but an authentic gift of the Spirit according to the Church.

[@patriciamathews5975]

​@@OgeronimonominoregO If you note what I wrote above it is the perverted false "gift" of tongues that is self generating. Potentially a false gift of tongues could be delivered by demonic possession. However, most false manifestations of tongues have their root in the sin of pride & the lust for power.

[@jarrakis4834]

Great video. As an inquirer into the church, I can’t believe this is an actual thing!!!! Even as a Protestant, the thought this was nuts. But in the church?

[@MillionthUsername]

The Church is charismatic by nature. The Holy Spirit was poured out onto the Apostles on Pentecost according to the promise of Jesus. Paul teaches on the gifts of the Spirit in 1 Cor and elsewhere. The Church has always acknowledged the charisms.

[@sueseelie]

Yeah I converted in ‘94 and found out this was a thing in the Church only recently

[@lilyw.719]

​@@MillionthUsername Put your forked tongue back in your mouth. The Charismatic movement has nothing to do with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. What charismatics do is a sick, twisted ape of the true gifts of the Holy Spirit, which work entirely differently. In fact, both in Scripture and in the official teaching on discernment of spirits, babbling idiotically like this is automatically a sign of the devil. He mockingly parodies the true gift of tongues, where the language is always understood by both the speaker and the listener. If the person isn't speaking a real language, it's the devil. If they are speaking a real language but nobody understands it, it's the devil.

[@granmabern5283]

The protestant revolution didn’t happen overnight. It’s still corrupting and destroying souls and families. In Britain, the clear division of the new cult from the Catholic Faith took decades. This video is addressing one cause of the smog of war... meanwhile, the True Faith is alive in God’s One, Holy Catholic Church. Shining at the Tridentine Mass.

[@granmabern5283]

The Holy Catholic Church has ALWAYS taught that the charism of tongues means the Holy Spirit helping someone to communicate the Truth in a real language, or between several people of different languages. The psychotic babbling is an addiction, like magic mushrooms. Not a charism.

[@JohnKRiordan]

Ronald Knox's book "Enthusiasm" was a great help to me after I withdrew from the Catholic charismatic movement in the early 70s. I recommend it highly. Even though it predates the Catholic charismatic movement by almost 20 years, it's the best book ever written on wackadoodle "ultrasupernaturalism". It also includes a detailed discussion of Quietism, a bogus mysticism very much with us today.

[@OgeronimonominoregO]

It is extremely offensive to God and to anyone who truly loves God for you to refer to being filled with the Spirit or exercising one of the charisms as "wasckadoodle 'ultrasupernaturalism'." I have no idea how people who applaud these horrible videos can call themselves Catholic. I truly do not. They are demonizing faithful Catholics AND the gifts of the Spirit! It's beyond shocking.

[@kayfiammetta1197]

You are so correct about the gift of tongues. It's the people who can understand another language being said. I'm referring to Pentecost. When I was in my teens this was going around, i.e., people talking gibberish and was supposedly talking in tongues. They told me I could have it too by repeating what they were saying. I said but I thought it came from the Holy Spirit. They just glared at me and asked me to leave. They sounded like they were saying Toyota and some other car brands -- can't remember. I also attended a service where people were being "slain in the spirit." I was the only one who didn't go down when they kept pushing me hard. I guess people don't want to look like they didn't get the "gift." And then there was a service where people were laughing and couldn't stop. All demonic. I wasn't Catholic back then.

[@MillionthUsername]

Speaking in tongues is one of the gifts of the Spirit and is not "demonic." Please refer to the NT and to the CCC. I encountered Jesus at a healing mass in 1983 where I was "slain in the Spirit" and experienced His immense love for me. I was filled with joy and power. It was for me a great consolation and the start of a new life. Please don't mock my God because He deigned to touch me in that way.

[@AsturGalicia]

​@@MillionthUsernameYour faith is demonic. Don't lose your soul so foolishly. 2 Thessalonians 9 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

[@MillionthUsername]

@@AsturGalicia "Your faith is demonic." I see you drank the Kool-Aid. Feel better now?

[@winall9]

​@@AsturGaliciaI remember the jokers tried to get me to fall and I was almost giggling to myself. I knew I would not fall and I didn't. The whole experience was weird and didn't feel holy. Never went back again

[@kayfiammetta1197]

​@@MillionthUsername Where did I say Speaking in Tongues is demonic? I said that what those people were doing was demonic and it was. Copying one another and repeating some weird words is NOT the gift of Tongues from the Holy Spirit. I also stated that these people were NOT Catholics; I was not Catholic. I've had many wonderful experiences from the Holy Ghost, Abba, Jesus, and the Blessed Mother. Our Heavenly family is always with us. In fact, it was through some miracles that my husband and I became Catholic. I've also started reading the Bible as if I never had read it before and I'm being shown so much! We've all been lied to about everything. Pray for TRUTH and be open to the Holy Spirt to show you some amazing things! May God bless you and reveal TRUTH to you. Amen. Also, I've researched the Bibles and I recommend the New Revised Standard from the '80's edition.
