That's not how it works. Your mum, or others who are with God, gives your prayers to God on your behalf. Then God decides how and when He will answer them, not your mum. I'm sorry this is so confusing.

Scripture gives many senses to the word "church". In Matthew 18:17, "church" refers to those in authority. A congregation with individuals in authority leads to chaos. " And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the congregation. But if he refuses even to hear the congregation, let him be to...

First, a priest in mortal sin does not invalidate a valid Mass. If it did, then all Masses would be invalid because the consecration would depend on human efforts in the absence of Christ. It's like saying Christ at the Last Supper consecrated bread and wine based on His human half alone. This...

I thought this was entertaining:

The sin of the priest has no bearing on the Eucharist as long as the Priest is a real priest and the consecration is valid. The trans-substance comes from God and the priest just the instrument. In your scenario, the priest would be committing the sin of sacrilege. Only God knows who is in...

The three-fold model of the priesthood which was in use at the time of Aaron was carried over into the New Testament and thus we find there also a high priest, ministerial priests, and universal priests. In the New Testament age the high priest is Jesus Christ (Heb. 3:1), the ministerial...

Comments on the you tube page: As an evangelical Protestant pastor, let me say what a privilege it is, Father Casey, to count you as my brother in Christ, and truer words were never spoken than what you say here about social media. Not only do we stand shoulder-to-shoulder protecting the...

The Church is distinctive among institutions in the history of mankind: it is human and yet divine; perfect, yet in need of reform; holy, yet made up of sinners; infallible, yet led by fallen, fallible humans. That’s a hard concept to express to someone outside the Church—sometimes it’s hard for...

Doctrines flow directly, or indirectly, from what has been divinely revealed, through the Written or Spoken Word. The are not created. Why don't you name the first "little burden" (or the second, or the third...) instead of generalizations and false histories? (which is extremely annoying) It...

The Pope wants to take Dignitatus Humanae off the paper, and put it into action. Catholics are not divided between "liberal" and "conservative". Friction exists between pseudo-schismatics (who are still in the Church) and those loyal to the Magisterium. This is nothing new. Pope Francis hopes...

There’s the ideology of the primacy of a sterile morality regarding the morality of the people of God. The pastors must lead their flock between grace and sin because this is evangelical morality. Instead, a morality based on such a pelagian ideology leads you to rigidity, and today we have many...

It looks like a dogmatic statement to me. The first 40 Popes were martyred, along with many Early Church Fathers. You spit on their blood.

Yes. Psuedo-schismatics are still in the Church. "They are going through a rough time. We have to lead them gently." Pope Francis post #2202 There are liberal factions in lifesitenews bent on discrediting the Pope, even though it publishes a lot of good stuff.

Scripture does not say that. Re-read 1 John 4, 2 John 1 That is a non-sequitur fallacy. Trinitarians affirm "The Only Begotten Son who is the " Word" became flesh." See John 1:1. Scripture makes it clear that that the spirit of anti-Christ denies the Incarnation. Re-read 1 John 4, 2 John 1...

To me, it's related to Pope Leo XIII's vision. I suggest you read what Catholics have to say about that. Not the pseudo-schismatic ones. Leo XIII and vision

That is another anti-Catholic myth. It is IMPOSSIBLE to convene ANY Council without the Pope. At the time, the Pope was too sick to make the journey from Rome to Nicae (south of Constantinople), so he sent 2 legates with his full authority. Constantine knew no council could be called without the...

Sorry Grailhunter, but that is funnier. The reason why Emperor Constantine called the Council of Nicaea was to resolve the controversy over Arius’ teaching that Christ Jesus was not consubstantial with God the Father. Therefore, it then follows that for there to have been a heresy or even an...
