I think I've watched just about every fr. Ripperger lecture I could get my hands on

[@andrewmcreynolds4677]

Me to I have learned more from him and I thank god!

[@jobee5480]

Me too found him in 2019. He helped me navigate covid and just blew my mind about the faith. So much of it seemed to be locked away in a vault....he makes it real. God bless ​@@andrewmcreynolds4677

[@BeeBee-tb2it]

The same. It helped me so much!

[@TheHumilityChannel]

One of the greatest blessings to our time.

[@sueadauctus3306]

Me too, about 9 years worth. Helped me grow in Faith so much. Deo gratias.

[@suzanne8182]

Consider praying a rosary or spending an hour in Adoration for our good Father Ripperger. 🙏🏼

[@EvelynRivera-z3k]

That is a very good idea. I recently saw a video using his name whereby he was endorsing the use of a gun! The guy's voice "kind of" sounded like his and at one point the video got to "schreeching" and what I found to be irritating was a face of some man that rubbed me the wrong way. I got the creeps and turned it off. He's being threatened for doing the work of God and we must pray for his protection under the names of Jesus and His blessed Mother.

[@FatherSolanus]

Thank you for trach teaching me how to read Cyrt Cyrillic

[@FlyingMalamute]

When Fr Ripperger teaches, I trust him because he's so down to earth.

[@BrianFischer-yn6oz]

A lecture from Father Ripperger, is like catnip for the soul. Always a must listen!

[@hyacinthus.b]

Catnip? Are you a cat?

[@annestrada1724]

When we were in the path of a tornado, we pray to Saint Barbara, and the tornado made a 90° turn to avoid us. It completely shocked the newscasters and all who were tuned in on their computers. But it didn't shock us. Saint Barbara always protected Us in storms.

[@lakotafire2804]

When we lived in near-hell, Arkansas, I prayed to Our Blessed Mother, and the tornado lifted long enough to skip us and sat down on the other side of our property. Thanks be to God. + ♡ The entire area was filled with masons. Upside-down ☆

[@QuentinVeitch-rx8pq]

Wow, thats a great story

[@jamestregler1584]

Thanks as always Father for the Truth, Light and Love of Jesus Christ ➕😇

[@sueadauctus3306]

Thank you Father. Perilous times. Very strange, difficult world now for older folks.

[@SamanthaWiessing]

Oh, Blessed Mother! Protect this man and touch each soul who hears this with God's peace.

[@CMacinFL]

Thank you Father for being a great teacher of the Truth!!!

[@dianaswanson5705]

We pray a certain prayer for storms at home. It's a very old prayer from pope innocent iii

[@Purplepinkmom]

Dear Heavenly Father, please bless Fr. Ripperger. ✝️✝️ Amem.

[@im3369]

Everything Father said is true the evils i have been through done by me or others, his mercy was so powerful that people wouldn't believe me , we truly have a GOD that is both merciful and mighty All glory to God I love you from the depth of my soul and I'm so thankful for ALL my sufferings pains and all evil that has happened to me 🙏

[@bernadettehays453]

We have True Princes of Our Lord Jesus Christ’s Church like Fr. Ripperger and other Sons of God, who go forth Fearlessly, Truthfully and are True Beacons of Gods Work and Light in this progressively wicked, Godless and Evil World. We/I Desperately Need to listen and follow The TRUTHFUL LOVING & MERCIFUL Words of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the voices of Our Holy Princes of Our Lord Jesus Christ’s. Amen.

[@Kyntai]

Fr R is always a breath of fresh air in this confusing age.

[@shellir8989]

A voice necessary for Our Time. Thank GOD for this good priest!!

[@marklangley5349]

Thankyou! Ripperger.❤

[@LoisBusuttil]

Thank you, Father for this very valuable homily.

[@Ginger-f5r]

Praying 🙏 for all the souls that will die this day! 🙏 🙏 🙏 "Pray as much as you can for the dying. By your entreaties (that is, insistent prayers) obtain for them trust in My mercy, because they have have most need of trust, and have it the least. Be assured that the Grace of eternal salvation for certain souls in their final moments depends on your prayer! You know the whole abyss of My mercy, so draw upon it for yourself and especially for poor sinners. Sooner would heaven and earth turn into nothingness than would My mercy not embrace a trusting soul" (Diary 1777) 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

[@khaibustos]

What a fantastic talk! Thank you, God, for Father Ripperger

[@bredaogrady-k9y]

"Ave Maria ..."

[@leoniea138]

I get excited when I see Fth Ripperger....I know ,, a lesson coming

[@CocoWynn]

NO suffering or evil is ever greater or comparable to the crucifixion of Christ even though He was sinless. Yet God the Father still allowed it to happen. Through love and obedience Jesus suffered and through His suffering, the glory of God and salvation of mankind was accomplished with Christ’s resurrection. God gives us a special gift, free will and He constantly reminds us to steer from sins. He guides, protects and purifies us, but we’re still evildoers at the end of the day except for the saints. By the way most if not all these saints suffered a great deal while on earth too. I agree with Fr. Ripperger that God sometimes “spanks” us in order to straighten us out of our sinfulness and to teach us virtues. GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED!!!

[@paulatrujillo1461]

This video is a Diamond Mountain of God's Truth, the path to true growth, true strength to overcome and true freedom!! Thank you, Father Ripperger! Thanks be to God, who truly loves us and who doesn"t pamper, kiss up and spoil us straight to Hell like Satan does!!

[@rosemary599]

Listening to this as fires burn.

[@lynnflynn5591]

I don't know when this talk was recorded, but Father Ripperger's talks are timeless. I, too, am listening as the California wildfires burn the homes of wealthy celebrities. I can't help but think that God must be very displeased by the work and immoral behaviors of the entertainment industry. We can only hope that all this suffering brings more souls to Him. 🙏

[@rosemary599]

@ unfortunately the good are suffering also but there have been miracles.

[@fotografodapaz-culturaeciv6967]

Thank you Father! You are a blessing to us

[@Angela-uh1je]

Thank you for this video! Very helpful. I pray Fr. Ripperger will now teach us why God allows those who do the evil to others to go unpunished and sometimes even get rewarded. May God bless Fr. Ripperger.

I have been a first responder for almost twenty years and have responded to natural disasters for about seven... PLEASE encourage your parish priest and/or your bishop to say the prayers against the spirits of the air!

[@RaymondYocum-uw5hd]

I read that God permits sins of the flesh because it ensures that we don’t become too prideful. Of course that doesn’t mean that you should continue! Pray for God’s grace.

[@scottandpamelairwin1987]

[@manzimfura]

Thank you

[@nathanngumi8467]

Word. 🙏

[@brothajack1993]

He is incredible. Just sharing, we all know how much he emphasises the rosary as the weapon against demons. But I just found out that saying only one decade of the rosary was originally marketed to children.....the real rosary is the standard 3 decades (153 hail Mary's) with the Joyful, sorrowful and the glorious mysteries. The benefits for me are bountiful. God bless all, and Mary I am so happy you are my mother!

[@userPs91victory]

Thank you Father Ripperger Your analysis are always enlightening. Very true we always ask why God allows evil 😈? And when evil happens are allow to defend ourselves with God’s permission?

[@leoniea138]

The fact is that these are all facts. No way around it ...we can be in the world ,, but not of the world . We can be with God and jump 3d reality . ..yet how do we become our Devine self ? Live in constant prayer .

[@Jennifer-gr7hn]

Totally love and agree with. The only thing that needs to be elaborated on though is "a tap" on the tushie is one thing for correction. Many of us were straight up abused with rage and violence, for simply asking for help due to getting abused by another family member. It matters.

[@eguogwuhenrietta9713]

I also think some certain souls are chosen specifically to endure certain evil, for a greater good, those who me God wants to be saints which is everyone of us may endure certain things from he beginning of their life.

[@spencermarkham1]

I am going to be honest. While I agree with father here on why God permits evil, however one cannot help but think that with all of man’s inhumanity to man and he is made in God’s image and likeness and is therefore God’s greatest creation that we are still a very poor reflection of God and it doesn’t make Him look good as a creator! I still love and worship Him but let’s face it, mankind has been God’s greatest challenge for him to prove his perfection! I can understand why many people became irreligious because of the “problem of evil.” I had a 10 years of crisis of faith because of that as one reason. Thanks be to God my faith in Him eventually overpowered my doubts but I still understand why many people left religion and I think religious people need to put aside individualistic asceticism they like to bury themselves into as a form of escapism and come together to help those in need, to come together as a community! I see very little of that among religious people today sadly! Christ calls us to do far better than that! Time to step up our game, folks!

[@evangelion1962]

God doesn't need to prove his perfection or anything else. Humanity is not a challenge to him. He is reality and exists outside of time. Past present and future are all at once for him. God is love and calls us to love. He's offering us the opportunity but he doesn't force us.

Thank you❤ One book I recommend everyone to read in 2025 is Your Life Your Game by Keezano… It beautifully shows how embracing faith and nurturing meaningful relationships can lead to spiritual growth and success in both your personal and professional life. This book truly changed my life-a must-read. God bless

[@Enna_Willkins]

thank you for advice❤

[@KJ-dh4kn]

True Life in God is excellent as well.

[@poetmaggie1]

Thinking about this question, I realized that God gave the Angles and us both a choice, follow Him or not. To Not is Evil, because to Follow God is Good. Evil has to exist once the choices are made but God can use Evil to bring good but the devil can't and doesn't want good.

[@erbe-k6t]

[@alfredynda1541]

2 Chronicles 20:15 New Catholic Bible 15 Jahaziel said: “Listen attentively, all Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat. Thus says the Lord to you: ‘Do not fear or lose heart at the sight of this vast horde, for the battle is not yours but God’s.

[@RestoreJustice675]

God Still punishes sinners today. It is completely politiccally correct Fr. Sin carries with them consequences. Hosea Says "I will return to My place until they pay for their guilt". I think its Proverbs that says: "Pain chases evil from the heart".

[@stevevrana3922]

41:30 vs. "cujus una stila salvum facere". So which it, only a drop could save a universe, or He had to bear the guilt and punishment of an entire universe?

[@inamparry2710]

God is the greatest. As St. Michael said to lucifer before cast him to hell "Who is like God" Amen. Lord Jesus come soon, the evil is spreading all over the world and the faithfull are so hurt that praying appears not enough to change this world to righteous.

[@PersonPersons-kh3bg]

What about pointless suffering? Extended evil for no reason? Like the same good that came out of it could’ve came out of it, but just A LOT sooner.

[@DystopiaFatigue]

The only problem is that the evil He is allowing in my life is driving me away from Him. The more I seek Him, the more I suffer, so I'd just rather not seek Him. I mean, if I'm going to hell no matter what I do, why should I waste my time?

[@yomiakinmolayan5867]

That's the devil whispering in your ear and calling you to despair. Don't give in to the Father of lies. Getting to heaven is no cakewalk, but think of the unending reward, unending joy, unending love and knowledge of God and His goodness, I personally will take a soul tripping visit to each one of the galaxies outside the milky way, to see, praise and thank the Holy Trinity. 😂😂

[@DystopiaFatigue]

@yomiakinmolayan5867 Thank you for the encouragement. My problem is one of faith. If God desires my misery, how can I trust that He only desires that for me here.

[@Earl-z3t]

He doesn't allow it. We choose it.

Evil is the absence of a due good. moderation is lacking for me especially with food

[@CIST3]

You have to practice moderation. Every time you limit yourself, you conquer that demon. In other words, you get stronger and stronger. Try slowly, by cutting out the processed stuff first and then little by little fewer meals per day.

God created all things. Would that not mean that God has created evil, also? I find it perplexing, yet, I understand that we also need challenges, difficulty, trials. This life is a mystery.. better when it is all over

[@crusader333ad]

Evil is the absence of Gods grace just as darkness is the absence of light. Darkness has no power of its own just as evil has no power and will be destroyed at the end of time.

[@michaeltischuk7972]

It's all semantics, you call it punishment, maybe they want you to substitute that word for 'refining' by the gentle touch of God molding one's character, spirit. Either way, God permits it for a positive purpose.

[@TraditionalCatholic2633]

Yes but people are too stupid to realize that God is intervening to help them.
