Mary Left an Eternal Mark on Jesus Christ a Bellybutton….

[@IosuamacaMhadaidh]

Since I've turned to Christ, and begun learning about Catholicism, I have moved from mindlessly cursing and using God's name in vain to being mindful of it at least. I still slip up, but now immediately pray for forgiveness and beat myself up over it. Eventually I know I will stop, but it begins by being conscious.

[@FaithinCatholic]

Do the sign of the cross in your forehead, lips and heart after each time you've said such things or everytime you are conscious that you're likely going to curse. Also, a practice of invoking the name of Jesus anytime of the day will give you marvellous results for yourself. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

[@tonybalongna]

@@FaithinCatholic In my opinion there’s nothing wrong with some thing like a rosary, since while it’s repetitive, the mind isn’t supposed to stay still and on one thing again, in my opinion the Holy Spirit works best through improvised prayer

[@d1burns]

It will happen. Everyone you catch yourself or hear others blaspheme, Say blessed be God, blessed be His Holy Name, blessed be Jesus Christ, True God and True Man. Jesus, Mary and Joseph, we love you, Save souls.

[@reachforthestars7040]

Maybe try out the Holy Face devotion. It’s a really good devotion that kinda deals with this, and the more I learn about it, the more I want to do it.

[@FaithinCatholic]

@@tonybalongna Truly, there is nothing wrong with the Rosary because it is about the Holy Trinity, the Church and mother Mary as well as focusing to the life of Jesus but sadly protestants don't realized it nor even try to bother themselves to see what's inside the Rosary. Just because they hear the Rosary and Mary, they can easily conclude that it is idolatry and worshipping Mary as replacement of Jesus and GOD. They're the perfect representation of "JUDGING A BOOK BY ITS COVER".

[@Shenanigans_Afoot]

Part of the reason I am converting is because of the scandals and evils in the church. Satan attacks the good viciously. So, to me, that meant the Catholic Church had truth. Look at how hard the demons are working in the church, must be a reason they fear the church so much… 🤷‍♀️ just my perspective.

Satanist seek the Catholic Eucharist/Communion and only the Catholic Communion. Why? Because they believe it to truly be the body of Christ. Yes others have a type of communion, but without the office of Priesthood their communion remains simply bread and Wine.

[@TrixRN]

That was one of my lesser reasons for converting to Catholicism. I saw how hard the MSM, & other enemies inside & outside the Church were trying to bring it down.

[@Splattervision-qh1sd]

My thoughts exactly, well said. Something would be wrong if evil wasn’t trying to infiltrate and subvert the Church. We should see it for what it is and only draw closer to our Church while dealing with the attacks from inside. It’s exactly what the fallen ones want, for us to turn against Her and leave the Church. It’s like the old saying, ya know you’re over the target when you’re getting the most flak.

[@Ab-abovetheFirmament]

Of course. Jesus said to one mystic that He will baptize them in the water from His Side. There is a prayer of Adoration of Sacred blood of Jesus that enteils at the last part just that. So that priest that said that about them belonging to the devil is just ignorant.

[@DysmasOfBabylon]

Lol the holy innocents were from before Jesus instituted baptism or the new testament, its silly since the church already declared unbaptized go directly to hell

[@Lily_Anne]

@@DysmasOfBabylon LOL? Over babies going to hell?! I'd hate to live in your mind. The Holy Innocents are in the New Testament - read Matthew 2:16-18. If you meant to say they were before the New Covenant and the establishment of the Church, those innocents who died in that era were considered to be in a sort of holding area awaiting the Messiah, also called Abraham's bosom. If you believe they go to hell, please send me the Catechism of the Catholic Church reference for that.

[@annemargarettemagno]

You know what, my mom taught as a technique if me and my brother accidentally curse or swear (when we were kids of course. We don't curse anymore). She would say to us that if we curse, we should hit our lips and apologize or ask forgiveness to God. and yeah, it really helped me a lot when I was a kid.

[@taraelizabethdensley9475]

I'll have to try that. I'm a convert, so still slip up, but if I catch myself, I try to turn it into a prayer instead

[@FaithinCatholic]

Though I do not curse but with some other things like thinking negative thoughts, worries and etc, my own way is to do a sign of the cross in my forehead so it will help me release from obsession, do a sign of the cross in my lips so if ever I met people or within my family during that time, I will not speak evil or bad things to them due to negative thoughts. Do the sign in my heart so my emotions will be clean and will not cause me anger and hatred due to negative thoughts. I do this as much as 3 times or more if thoughts are still fresh. Also, calling Mary's name is helpful and of course invoking the name of Jesus.

[@annemargarettemagno]

@@FaithinCatholic oh yeah, I'm the same as you, when I get attacked by this "bloodthirsty thoughts" (that's what I call them, because I hate it) I would call Jesus name, and say to him to please control this horrible thoughts in my head. Like one time I just randomly think about blaspheming the holy spirit, even if in reality I would never do that. This horrible thoughts is making me do horrible things. That's why I always asked Jesus Christ, to get rid of this thoughts. I want him to banish this thoughts, it kinda works though, when I pray to Jesus Christ, my horrible thoughts would go away. Sometimes when I sleep, this thoughts would attack me randomly, but when I focus on Jesus Christ more, this horrid thought would leave.

[@annemargarettemagno]

@@FaithinCatholic and also, the sign of the cross is powerful, because when I do a sign of the cross, it makes me calm? I don't know (calm, because Jesus is with me). And sometimes, when Jesus saved me from this horrible thoughts time and time again, I would always thank him. Sometimes through speaking to him in prayer, or doing the sign of the cross.

With regard to the concept of to whom unbaptized babies belong, perhaps it would be better to get the opinion of more credentialed or more deeply trained priest like Fr Joseph Iannuzzi. I also wish to clarify that contrary to the assumption that Fr Vince made that Fr Carlos asserted that unbaptized babies are damned, it is actually not true that Fr Carlos believes that. From the previous videos you showed, Fr Carlos explained that unbaptized babies are likely to be in a kind state of contentment (I am paraphrasing here) till our Lord collects them on His second coming for their final destination in heaven.

[@StanleyPinchak]

Fr. Carlos is correct, we should share the Gospel and encourage baptism. The Church must still hold to the eternal dogma that outside the Church there is no salvation. We also must believe Trent that baptism is the way to gain membership in the Church. It may be possible for God to work outside of the sacraments for salvation, but Jesus said not to put the Lord your God to the test.

[@MrsYasha1984]

I can't speak for others, so I'll just tell about my own story: After I came back to the faith in 2021, I tried to find out what God wants from me. He did not give answer immediatly, and in that time, I just tried to be content with being a wife and mother, and do some much needed healing. Then, on the tail end of 2023, suddenly i got asked if I would like to become a catechist, and do family ministry. I was unsure if that was what God wanted me to do. I was not immediatly sure that this was the way for me, on the contrary, I thought this way way too much responsibility for the really broken human that I am. So I prayed over this, and suddenly I had these really overwhelming words in my mind: 'BRING THE CHILDREN TO ME!' if the Lord asks, what can I do instead of saying yes? So I said 'yes Lord, I trust you!' Now I am in this ministry and education process, and it is quite the ride. Things seem lost so many times, then suddenly turn around! So, how do you know if you are called to a ministry? You ask, and wait, and trust. And in time, He will show you the way.

They taught you as well as they could. Outside the Church there is no salvation . This dogma is taught from Paul on (1 Cor 10:17, Act 27:31). The only way to be in the Church is to be baptized this is taught by Jesus in Jn 3:5. The nuns weren't wrong to tell you this. They were doing their best to instill a preper fear of God in you. Maybe God will provide for some other way to salvation, but there were only eight who were saved through water on the Ark. We never heard of any others who survived via a different plan for salvation. We can not tempt God by not preaching baptism and getting our own families baptized, even if He miraculously works outside of the normal means of the sacraments.

I always wondered why the Church encourages us to have children if there is a chance of a miscarriage or stillbirth. It’s better not to take that chance if the baby might go to Hell. Why don’t we baptize them right after delivery then? Most babies are baptized one or two months after birth. Parents have to take classes! If unborn babies belong to the devil then why is abortion wrong/evil? My two children survived and were baptized, but if I would have thought deeper about this I wouldn’t take a chance.

[@adelphosgames2996]

If Fr Martin says unbaptized children or people belong to the devil, he is correct and in line with Catholic theology. If not why does the church baptize children or people. The Catholic Church teaches that at baptism we become sons and daughters of God in the Son (Jesus Christ). If we become such at baptism, then what are we before baptism. In fact this is just one of those hard truths of the Catholic faith that, if you don’t teach well, if you self you don’t digest well before teaching, you can cause great confusion among Christians.

[@ervsmith8272]

St Thomas has the answer to the baptism question. We need to look no further than the Summa Theology (STh Supp q. 69, aa. 1-7). He gives us the parts of Hell. Besides Purgatory, there is “Limbo of the Fathers (or Bosom of Abraham now empty)” and the “Limbo of the Children” where the unbaptized children not yet reached the age of reason (around 7 years old) go. There is no physical suffering in Limbo only the missing of God for these children have no personal sin. But Since scripture is clear that Baptism is required for salvation (To See the face of God, eternal bliss) this is where they go. Blessed Catherine Emmerich (among other saints) also was shown these places in a vision and she asked the question as to what happens to those children at the end of the world and God said that it is none of your business. In other words, God had a plan. She asked because one day when she was present at a birth of a baby who was in danger of dying she quickly baptized the child, soon after the baby died. Later the baby appeared to Blessed Catherine and thanked her saying that if it wasn’t for her quickly baptizing her, her faith would have been the same as the pagan children. If anyone questions this he/she must ask your self. In the light of Adam’s sin, is it not true that Heaven was closed for all man kind? So salvation is now restored but with conditions. And that is Baptism and for those that reached the age of reason, also Faith. (Mark 16: 16:16)

@spiritualwarfareseries I have a question I have been told that confessing thought of anger or ire towards a person is not a sin nor needed to be confessed that only the acts matter so even if we judge others in our mind but don’t say anything nor act upon it then it isn’t a sin and it doesn’t need to be confessed is that true?

Aside from the influence of Satan who of course the first to hate Mary, protestants do hate and persecute Catholics about her it's because she is with us. The MOTHER of God is with us. We have the favor to be nurtured by a very loving and supportive mother, who is at the same time the mother of Jesus. They're like bullies in school who sadly don't have an attentive and loving mother that loves her children so much with great affection and attention. If only they will realise and accept her role, they'd be showered with much love as well in which she will also bring them closer to what we Catholics desire and want and that is to be closer to Jesus.

[@gailhall6283]

Not all protestants hate Catholics. Catholics are not our enemies, you are our fellow Christians. There will always be extremists everywhere in life. We need to pray for them and support each other. I for one love the Catholic teachings, prayers and especially the rosary.🙏✝️🌹

[@FaithinCatholic]

@@gailhall6283 If you love the Catholic teachings then you are already a Catholic. There's no more reason to stay where you are now. Knowing the whole truth is what matters most because the truth will set you free. Come home and you will see the marvellous things and all other teachings that the church will ever show you on how to get closer to Jesus and God. Catholics can only support protestants by loving them as brothers and sisters of Christ but we can never agree and support with thier misconceptions against us.

I was once Catholic and learned good things from my time with them. I don't hate them. They have some good doctrines that helped put me on the foundation I have today. That being said.,,, although i known some people can be spiteful and mean about the "Mary" thing, please understand that it looks to them that u are worshipping her. It doesn't matter if u say you are not; it LOOKS and SOUNDS like u are.It to them is idolatry as Protestants believe only the Trinity is worthy of that kind of adoration.Let me explain what some of us think. Mary was a virtuous,, girl living in ancient Israel whom God chose to be The Sons mother,.She came from the right bloodline... and had the character to be trusted with God's son.She with courage accepted the task and went through trials and tribulations on acord.Mary had to hide from Jesus' executors, and it is possible that Mary would have been killed with him if they had discovered him,Mary had to hide out in Egypt for a few years, and coming back, I think, off and on was whispered about,, the victim of possible slander, gossip, and accusation.She prob lived with a veil of this over her all her life. Then, she had to witness the brutal execution of her firstborn son. Mary suffered a lot, and she deserves respect.. The pendulum swings too far from one side to the other regarding the Mary question between Catholics and Protestantism. That being said, I think we can agree that Mary is in Heaven now, and we will all get to meet and thank her for her service to mankind. But I don't see anything in the bible that promotes or encourages any practice that we should that pray to Mary... look to Mary for help and guidance or give her a promotion way beyond any human being other than Jesu Christ has a right to; The Holy Spirit is our comforter,, and teacher. Jesus is our savior and King;...Father God is the Creator.. Mary is our fellow human being who did her part in God's plan to redeem mankind. Certainly, this needs to be honored. But when people go way beyond that, it's started to prickle....... Try to see why there is such a split between Catholics and Protestants through new eyes and lenses should not be a 'us against them" philosophy.. Blessings and peace.

[@lilacicecream]

I have the Holy Spirit inside of me... I have Jesus Christ as my Saviour and King and the Great Father God as my Heavenly Father.I even call him" Dad".In the trinity, there are ample"mothering" attributes to satisfy all my needs. Im not alone, lonely or lacking in there the least.

[@atgred]

@@lilacicecream Nice “feelings” for our Holy Mother, but no FACTS on what God, since Genesis 3:15, has had His WILL upon her, that should be our will too. Psalms‬ ‭45:9-17 “Kings' daughters were among thy HONORABLE women: upon thy right hand did stand the QUEEN (Rev. 12) in gold of Ophir. Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; So shall the KING GREATLY DESIRE THY BEAUTY: for HE IS THY LORD; and worship thou him (only). And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift (Lk. 1:28); even the rich among the people shall ENTREAT THY FAVOUR (intercession). The king's daughter is all GLORIOUS WITHIN (immaculate): her clothing is of wrought gold. SHE shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins (religious women) her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace (heaven). Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children (mother of the christians) whom thou mayest make princes (bishops) in all the earth. I WILL make THY NAME to be REMEMBERED IN ALL GENERATIONS (Lk. 1:48) therefore shall the people PRAISE THEE FOR EVER AND EVER.”

I choose to go with the natural laws of the universe. Some children never had the opportunity when they were young for a baptism. However, God as our creator has fashioned us in his liking thus we are his children. Jesus does not weep over the loss of 1 sinner and then turn around and say “burn the babies.” Common sense appears to have been one of Jesus’s mission. Also, free will is instrumental as well. Being born and being condemned because you were poor or born to the wrong family and unable to access a baptism would indicate that free will is mute.

[@userPs91victory]

Great topic. There is a rumour out there that the spirits of aborted children can be heard and seen l, in including the spirits of children that have died from murder and natural disease, this is so sad . Those children are innocent and pure, sinless, they should go back to their Creator.

[@StanleyPinchak]

As much as we would like it to be otherwise, they are created in the image of Adam, and due to the fall are no longer in the image of God. As St. Paul noted, Death (eternal) reigns over us from Adam until Christ. We put on Christ and the Image of God in Baptism. I don't know the mysteries of God, but the salvation of these otherwise innocent babies would be outside of the ordinary means of baptism. We can only trust them to the mercy of God and hope that He might save them outside of the sacraments.

[@heidi2842]

In my opinion God would not create any baby if there was not an option for its salvation.

[@Wadusher]

Those spirits are probably demons rather than dead babies, as we wouldn't expect a person's spirit to roam the earth instead of going to God, but we definitely do see demons doing that.

I thought she led pilgramiges to the birth site of Jesus and she was after the Accention , the Holiest person on earth or ever. She was then as now our Mediatrix. It is very obvious that she has been left out of Scripture except from st Likes Gospel aka the Marian Gospel. We know he had her help in writing it because he was a new Apostle brought in from another new brother St Paul..

[@laineyl8752]

Its not just aborted babies who are unbaptised. Miscarried babies are also unbaptised. And babies who are scheduled for baptism according to the parish priest's busy calendar? That they all belong to the devil is hard to accept.

I believe it was an unwise decision for this KZbinr to isolate a portion of Fr Carlos' statement about Baptism and present it in a negative manner, using the discourse of another priest to "compare and contrast". It seems to me a violation of Fr Carlos' intention. Had we heard his full commentary,it would have been clarified. It is well known that we can not expect the fullness of wisdom by presenting piecemeal portions of the Bible. Same applies here. There is much good information in this segment, but unfortunately I will not share this video because I cannot affirm this discrepancy.

[@ArdanCanileo]

Unbaptized babies belong to the devil in the sense that they are not in the state of Grace. Of course that doesn’t mean that if they’re murdered they won’t go to heaven since they never rejected the Gospel.

[@HD-Australia]

I have a question for your Priest who has agreed to answer 5 questions per week. I have been told that aborted babies go to heaven. I have had 5 miscarriages. I wanted all of these babies. If they were born, I would have baptised them. Now these 5 dead babies of mine, where are their souls? I have been told their souls are in limbo according to Catholic teaching, and that in limbo your soul is separated from God. Why? If this is so, these 5 babies would have fared better had I killed them through abortion. If God is merciful, why would aborted babies with Original Sin be admitted to heaven, yet miscarried babies with Original Sin be kept away from heaven? I dearly hope you select my question. This is a source of deep sorrow which still affects me today. I had no bodies to bury, as my miscarriages were all within the first 6 weeks of life.

[@StanleyPinchak]

Pray for your babies, because without baptism they are outside of the normal means of salvation. Don't lose hope, all things are possible for God.

[@sarahwong9138]

What do you think of the idea that St Joseph might have been immaculately conceived?

[@StanleyPinchak]

Why would it matter? He did not contain the Eternal Word inside of his womb. He could have and certainly was sanctified and granted graces as the foster father of Jesus. Why would Joseph need complete sinlessness to accept Mary into his home? It seems that him being immaculately conceived would violate the precept of Jesus being the new Adam, if his foster father already was.

With all due respect, Father, but I don't find it appropriate to pity a demon, giving the fact that they knew perfectly what they were deciding and the ramifications of it. And the quote from the Bible about enemies is not about demons, but the earthly enemies... loving the devil does nothing good... hating sin does... and maybe having repulsion for the devil does a good thing too... but loving or having pity doesnt make any sense for me...

[@coronaphone710]

Religious people, cobbled together always think like that. Its more nuanced when you put them in front of a camera for instance, or when they try to score individual social or religious points in their ingroup, imo. My pov is: Every religious person is dangerous and especially groups, are extremely dangerous. But this is also a misguided view, but....its there for a reason. Especially if you learned history, or knowing what religious people or groups do when the razzias, ,pogroms and holocausts start to happen.

So what does the Catholic Church say??? 😮

[@tait7270]

At the moment of conception we belong to the devil says father Martins. Father Lampert says we belong to God. In philosophy the disagreement can be explained in terms of being and becoming. Gods being is complete as is Christs victory over sin and death. But I would have to agree with Father Martins the Church Militant is not complete . We have to repent and work out our salvation in fear and trembling. The issue of salvation is broken down into 3 possibilities. There is no salvation says communism and others. There is no soul or after life. Secondly, modernists say that if there is a heaven then everyone gets in . ( Indifferentism) The third option states that there is heaven, hell personal judgement and purgatory and that is the only possibility that is continuous with the tradition of the church and holy scripture. If there is no heaven then anything is possible and chaos reigns. If dr makes it. Christ died for nothing. Christ raised from the dead and glorified as Lord of all means nothing. Our future is diminished and our present moral responsibilities are weakened.

[@galeclark3637]

So which priest is “right” on baptism issue?!?

[@StanleyPinchak]

Read the church councils starting with the oldest. Things get very "ecumenical" to say the least at Vatican II. You should quickly find that the Church has always taught that outside the Church there is no salvation. The ordinary and only means known to the Church of gaining membership in the Church is through water baptism. Everything else is post Vatican II hopes and fairytales.

[@MrSmiley1964]

Speaking of child sexual abuse, I'll come back to the old saying that one spoiled apple spoils the bunch. Quick follow up, I grew up around a LOT of child sexual abuse in my town and school. Most of the apples doing the abusing weren't Catholics, but who said apples can't be hypocrites? Powers and Principalities my friends.

[@peters8162]

Lambert is 100% correct

[@CatsHeartbeat]

Fr Carlos is 100% correct. Unbaptised children and adults are God's Creation not God's Children - we only become adopted children of God through baptism.

[@ruseriouss.9819]

You worship a different God. It sounds like Allah

[@CatsHeartbeat]

@@ruseriouss.9819 you clearly need to study your Catholic Faith: From the Catechism of the Council of Trent: Definition Of Baptism With regard to the definition of Baptism although many can be given from sacred writers, nevertheless that which may be gathered from the words of our Lord recorded in John, and of the Apostle to the Ephesians, appears the most appropriate and suitable. Unless, says our Lord, a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God; and, speaking of the Church, the Apostle says, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life. Thus it follows that Baptism may be rightly and accurately defined: The Sacrament of regeneration by water in the word. By nature we are born from Adam children of wrath, but by Baptism we are regenerated in Christ, children of mercy. For He gave power to men to be made the sons of God, to them that believe in his name, who are born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God"
