A family with a Christian father is spiritually strong and can resist evil, but not without the father.
Nonsense! One of the most spiritually strong families I have ever known was a widow and her son. Shame on you for putting down widows and women who chose not to have an abortion even though the child’s father has deserted them, plus all the other brave single Christian mothers who go it alone for good reason.
This is what i aspire to be for my family every single day. If i die this is the only thing i care about that they say about me; that i was a good christian man who gave his all.
@@user-li2bo1qt1b nonsense yourself.
@@user-li2bo1qt1b Obviously a man that deserts his children is not a Christian father is he?
@@user-xm4wk1hk6c well obviously! But it doesn’t follow that the mother he deserts couldn’t be a spiritually strong Christian leading a spiritually strong family. And of course not all Christian fathers who DONT abandon their family are spiritually strong and able to resist their family evil! Life and the Church are far more complex and nuanced than that.
Father Calvin just exudes class, intelligence, genuineness, and steadfastness for the faith. As a recent convert to Anglicanism I am proud of men like Father Calvin to look up to as examples of warriors for Christ.
Why anglicanism over catholicism?
@@mortensimonsen1645 why does my faith choice matter to anyone else but me?
Sorry, I don't mean to be uncharitable. There are three things that stop me from Catholicism. 1. I can't get past the veneration of Mary. I honor her as the mother of our Lord, but I do not think praying to her is good faith practice. 2. The veneration of saints, and see my same issues as with Mary. This is also why I could not consider Eastern Orthodoxy as well. 3. The current pope is wishy washy and does not lead on a clear manner. 4. Papal inerrancy. The scriptures are inerrant, but a man? I can't ascribe to that. Yes I know Justin Welby is wishy washy and never stands up to progressives, but I am not joining the C of E, but the Anglican Church ( ACNA). Who knows in the future my mind could be changed, but as of right now I am good with the Anglican church. Forgive my first snarky comment as I do not wish to disrespect anyone's commitment to their faith.
Reasons 1 and 2 the veneration of Mary and the saints. I believe we should not make our prayers to anyone but God, through our intercessor Jesus Christ. 3. The current pope is not a clear leader, he is muffled in many of his writings and embraced progressivism more than he should. 4. Papal inerrancy is not something I can convince myself of at all. The inerrancy of Scripture, yes, but the Pope? I can't go there. Please forgive my snark in the previous comment. I am still In the sanctification process and I am far from perfect. I am good with my Anglican ( ACNA) Church at present. Am I open to eventually embracing Catholicism? Sure, but right now, I am not there.
@@patriottex4813 Hello, no offense taken :) I was simply curious. One could perhaps argue a little bit with what you are saying, to hint that maybe some Lutheranism could do the job as well as the Anglican church (forgive me, but I don't know the various divisions in the Anglican church - are the several of them, not in communion?). Another thing that struck me is how highly Calvin R speaks about the Catholic Church, so since you admired him, well, I thought perhaps you agreed.
But yes, I think your faith matters to others. I think so very much. In fact, I happen to believe we are one body. Or we should be *one* body. And a body is visible. I think we should all mourn daily that the Church is not united, because unity was what Jesus prayed for (John 17), unity like the Father and the Son! Not a trifling matter. I hope you maintain your zeal for truth!
Isaiah 5:20: Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Aye, but woe also unto those who see only ever goodness in light, and evil in darkness, for the light can blind, and evil can wear a fair face, and in the dark there are lights, akin to the stars in the night sky, and there is good which does not bother with seeming fair of face, any who doubt this need only look upon gargoyles.
Woe especially unto those who will believe devils who call gargoyles as demons, for they will in grave folly drive away the gargoyles and then wonder at how and why the cathdral becomes overrun by the real agents of satan; in so being and so doing, they earn their being abandoned by the agents of God.
@@raumograeywolf5477 What on earth are you rambling about? Romans 3:10-12 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.". We are all sinners in absolute need of Christ, His righteousness, His life, His death in our place on the cross, His resurrection! We need this imputation of the righteousness of God by faith, which is a gift from God, to our account
This is the problem with proof texting.
@@oscarfabi_I just read that book🤯
@@raumograeywolf5477Sorry I'd rather learn from the gospels. No truer word spoken than that of God's word.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Ephesians 6:12
This describes many, but lately that Venell's woman and the whole tragic, evil, despicable PO business. What a "hollow man".
Christians are to be wise a serpents and peaceful as doves. The lukewarm Christians are the ones to concern yourself with.
As a former Catholic long time Athiest I completely agree 100%.
I remember when I was Christian and the pulpit said
"be either hot or cold, or god spit you out"
I no longer believed the Bible, God claims or agreed with most of the Religious dogma so I left.
I didn't bother wasting my time and energy to try and change the Religion.
Either take it or leave it right?
Dan and Calvin are really, really, really good at what they do.
These are top men right here. Some of our best soldiers.
There are many people who know these things but have their voice removed
Calvin Robinson raised up for such a time as this. God be praised.
3:00 Part of it is the whole "The meek shall inherit the Earth" being misinterpreted as weak and passive. Meek in the original context is meant to describe ancient war horses.
"The origin of “meek” in English comes from the Old Norse mjukr, meaning “gentle,” though perhaps a fuller understanding comes from the Greek origin, praus, which is translated as “strength under control.” In ancient Greece, war horses were trained to be meek - strong and powerful yet under control and willing to submit."
A draft horse comes to mind-gentle but immensely powerful
So much is lost in translation when talking about the bible.
when the clergy think to be a Christian is also to be Muslim isn't little wonder the CofE is in trouble!
Christ is King ✝️💞🙏
Thank God for father Calvin.
Absolutely. The degeneration of Western Society has produced great Theologist, Philosophers, and thinker that make my generation very proud.
Father?
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Thank God for the good Father! 🙏🏻
God protect Fr Calvin.
Everyone who says Christ is King MUST start praying earnestly for our country. Only He can save it.

Faith is immutable but the Church is not! Maintain your faith and love 🥰 go towards God always ❤❤
The CoE was dead the moment Henri created it.
Learn some history from grown up history books not from schoolbooks
@@mavisemberson8737 Roman Catholicism is the only way allahu akhbar deus vult Life truely is universal
@@mrlolmaster1019Catholicism is heretical. Many of them are saved but in spite of the Catholic Church, not because of it.
King Henry VIII created the COE because he wanted a divorce from his wife who could not give him a male hire! Fact!
Just to get the facts straight, Wallis Simpson was certainly not 'an American actress'. She was a wealthy socialite, divorced from her first husband and married to her second, Ernest Simpson, at the time she met the Prince of Wales. Ernest obligingly allowed himself to be divorced when it became clear that Wallis and Edward intended to make a future together. Apart from this error, it was a good interview with much to think about.
Wells Simpson was twice divorced by the time she married Edward and she was not very wealthy either.
Another outstanding interview, Calvin. You always look so fresh and smart at all these interviews; it must be exhausting, but you look like a million pounds at every one of them! Prayers ascending for your important video ministry🙏🏻
Intelligent Informative Conversation. Thank you.
Christ is King ✝️
Amen 🙏
Calvin you are saying what needs saying.... . keep going
Yes he is but so should everyone else be saying this. All Christians should be brave and fierce in defending the church and christ. Its the luke warm Christians that have helped damage the church so badly. If the good sit back and do nothing evil will prevail.
very interesting convo, i learned alot
The argument I've heard from Andrew Klavan about the term "Christ is King", is about the context -- like, crosses are fine, but burning crosses are not.
Calvin, cultural Marxism never rest's.
One of the best Brokenomics in a long time!
ANy chance Father Calvin could replace Justin Welby ?
I do like Calvins current look.
Calvin rocked a 'fro.
I know I shouldn’t care about the cosmetics, but I like the new look better.
Fantastic talk
The first world war did it for the Church (Of England) due to many vicars enthusiastically encouraging young men to go to war because the cause was righteous.....same thing was being said all across Europe.
Darn Corn bot makes a better point than most liberals when it says, “a shared community, and vision is invigorating
Totally disagree about sex being only for reproduction. A good God gives us orgasms so that we can have an amazing experience in sexual acts with our spouse. Our loving God wanted us to enjoy sex with our spouse. That is why we orgasm. That is why all research shows a woman has the best orgasms in marriage. Sex also builds trust, it’s us showing how much we love our spouse, we want to give them pleasure.
Reproducing children could have been done with a functional act. But our loving God wanted us to have fun with our spouse and have an amazing time having sex together.
People chase after one night stands, multiple partners in the time period, cheating etc because they think they will be fulfilled by these deviances. And they find they are never satisfied with them.
A loving marriage with loving sex is fulfilling. God knew that.
Lambeth Conference
I struggle with the faith element myself. I try to be a good father and husband. I pray before meals and before bed. I don't believe in it and I am going through the motions. I don't really believe in it anymore.
My friend and brother ….. I have struggled mightily too. But God is good. Ask for God to help you even when you don’t feel Him, be patient, and see what happens. Also I’m no expert but I would be a hopeless and most likely dead addict without Christ, so maybe if you have a question or two I can help from a place of empathy. God bless you ❤️. You’ll make it through
Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by The Word of God. Are you reading the Bible? My suggestion is that you read The Gospel of John, then carry on, and read The Acts of the Apostles.
Both John and Luke write with an immediacy which screams, "Genuine! This all really happened!"
Some other recommendations are C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity, G.K. Chesterton's The Everlasting Man, N.T. Wright's The Resurrection of the Son of God.
God doesn't ask us to believe without evidence. He has given us abundant evidence. It's there for you, The Everlasting Treasure. Everything depends on your receptiveness to it.
Always, the Gospel must be held uppermost in mind. To me, it's most beautifully expressed in John 11: 25, 26.
Father Calvin!!!!!!!! 🎉
AY UP LOTUS EATERS
YAY!
The first reason for the decline was WWI, surely? The Abdication was the second blow.
As a Roman Catholic I love to listen to Calvin because he holds true to the teachings of Christ, I wish I could say the same for Pope Francis and his lavender mafia.
Francis cannot change scripture...what are you talking about?
The real issue the CoE has is its foundations are sand.
Unlike Orthodoxy or Catholicism it cannot claim original linage to the apostles and as its common knowledge as to why it was founded (aka so a King could divorce) there is no good reason, imho, as a Christian to chose it over those two or even other Protestant groups.
As its foundations are so weak, and are effectively to enable sin, its no surprise that it is descended as it has.
Nonsense. Its an entire faith predicated on nationhood. Its a symbiotic relationship that is unique on planet earth.
Its special; and it cannot be replaced or replicated anywhere. Even though its been degraded and defiled, it still lives and has the capacity to be revived, and WHEN England falls, (and it will, make no mistake) it will find its footing among a diaspora that suddenly finds itself deeply appreciating what it has lost.
Wyrd bid ful araed.
But the church is not founded on nationhood, but rather on Christ. Lauding the CofE as synonymous with Englishness verges on and ultimately is worship of the Nation. That is why it is built on sand.
I know that CofE claims apostolic succession through branch theory and heritage of the Anglo Saxon and Celtic Christianity... but none of those existed autonomous from Rome. It is a fact that post Reformation in England was a fracture from before. So, whatever CofE likes to think, it is broken off. There are many good things in it, but it is broken away. Likewise, the exaltation of Englishness is a flaw for the reason I said earlier. And historically has produced rather ugly attitudes towards Catholicism as "foreign" even though it clearly is not.
CofE was created through the theft and looting of Christs church. its quintessentially evil.
@@ianmedford4855 erm, no. it was created from the looting of Christs church
@@ianmedford4855Nationhood? What u talking about ? The Church of England is a self serving, non apostolical, protestant church. It's a power grab at the service of the King of England. Her creation came with opening the tap and spreading the poison severe errors that will lead to her own destruction.
The CoE rejected the Pope but put the King at the head of it. It's called caesaropapalism. Peter's representative on earth leads the Christian church... not a king in england, not a president in the U.S First error. Then divorce became an acceptable norm. second error. And just like that, everything got downhill from that point on. Leftism didn't start the mockery of marriage, protestantism did. It made it a thing, opened the pandora box and here we are.
If Christ is king what is Charles Windsor
A creep
Reformation History on Andrew Melville, Scottish Reformation Minister:
"In 1596 Melville made a famous speech where he reminded the king again that ‘there are two kings and two kingdoms in Scotland.’ As well as king James ‘There is Christ Jesus, the King of the Church, whose subject James the Sixth is, and of whose kingdom he is not a king, nor a lord, nor a head, but a member.’"
Friend, Christ is the King of Kings. Before him all the kings of the earth shall cast their golden crowns on bended knee.
Monarchy properly ordered is a very Christian practice with a very long history. We all need leaders. Charles III is anointed king by the Archbishop of Canterbury in the name of Christ as his humble servant (whether he lives up to that role is another matter). Few republican styled nations so explicitly acknowledge their subservience to God in their election of leaders.
In this sense Charles III is a vassal king under the great King, Jesus Christ.
Something to think on.
God be with you.
Iam the farest right winger u can find but proof we are not racist is my admiration for this man. Ofc i understand he feels als native as the next guy but we all know in a literal sense he never will be. But he is prepared to fight for england and give his life to God. What a hero.
What are you talking about? He's obviously native English. I don't know which parent was black and can't see that it matters. Ethnicity is irrelevant; a willingness to be acculturated is everything. Unfortunately, it does appear that Third Worlders are far less interested in being acculturated.
I'm American. My maternal grandparents were from Sweden. When they came to America, they wanted to be Americans, not Swedes in America. That was the American immigrant story until fifty years ago.
@@bobtaylor170 seeing u are american i get why u dont understand this. In europe we look at it differently because our countries werent founded with black folks allready in them. But u are right the culture part is most important because it dictates behaviour.
Love your neighbour . You want the best for them which may be uncomfortable for them and they may not appreciate it at all. That makes Christians unpopular , of course.

Fr. Clavin is not an Anglican but an Old Catholic priest.
You might have some success with abortion, but divorce is never going back in the bottle. People will sooner abandon their religions than remain w/spouses they hate.
Christ was lucid and clear on his teaching concerning divorce. Cafeteria Christianity, which cherry picks what tenets are convenient and relative to one's given situation, is what deflates the purpose of Christianity. This is nothing but a church of niceness, which negates the proper role of sacrifice and suffering. Christianity without the Cross.
Bullies and con artists will take what they can.. They will not care for the well being of others
each man and woman must be secure and alert.. each parent must look after their young
Charles and Camilla didn't marry in a church, the Church still held the line. So they married in a registry office. Because of Henry VIII there is no law of a divorcee being king. Thus the Church's hands were tied (even if the Church has lost all compass on the matter).
Don’t understand how a country can abandon Christianity only to invite in such an authoritarian ideology….whether it be wokeism or Islam.

There is also nothing in the Bible at all to say marriage and sex are for reproduction only. Song of Songs - a Book in the Bible - is basically a set of poems about a woman pining for her husband and wants him home from work asap. It is also about God’s love for us. Same with the Book of Hosea - all about sec within a marriage where no children are spoken about being an analogy for God’s love for us.
The Bible states that sex is for marriage but nowhere does it say that sex is for reproduction only.
But doesn't the Church of England exist BECAUSE of divorce??
In short, yes.

@@jolo7173 If you think the god of the Bible is moral you obviously haven't read much of it.
@davepugh2519 ..the human idea of morality is not God's. God is righteous and just in all His judgements. Who are we, as finite created beings, to question an almighty God. But I guess at the end of the day it all comes down to faith, doesn't it?
Cristopher Hitchens is dead, get over yourself. Christ is King.

Ignore Nietzche at your peril.
The church isn't in decline. 66% of native British people are Christian at age 55.
The church just doesn't have anything to say to young people. They leave the church in their teens and slowly return to Christianity as they get older.
Rubbish. Christianity has more then plenty to say to young people, but the sirens of the secular world, are difficult to resist. To accept the syndrome of only older congregants filling the pews, adds fuel to the ongoing decay and decline of the COE. Quite the reverse is now happening with Traditionalist Catholics, who attend the traditonal Latin Mass. It is young people, and young families with children, who not only make up a substantial share of the attendants, but are the very engines driving the movement. There is a saying inTraditionalist circles, which states that if it ain't cryin, its dyin.
@LUIS-ox1bv you know what the Christian Church has to say to young people? The parable of the prodigal son. Go out and try a lot of sin and if you decide you don't really like it we will all sing hallelujah when you come back.
Well, that's exactly what young people do. You can hardly blame them for following what they are told. I'm one of them.
@@PGHEngineerif you come back with a spirit of genuine repentance. That is the true message. Without that coming back does nothing at all. The catch is many people get so lost along the way they are too proud to ask for forgiveness and repent. If our hearts are true God forgives. This is a message to all not just young people. It should be be a wake up call but also fill us with joy that we are so loved and given endless chances. God bless you my friend ❤

The issue with religious men is that they don‘t know female nature, especially female sexuality.
„There is no rest, there is no respite or reprieve from performing, but so strong is the desire for that unconditional love assurance that men thought it prudent to write it into
"traditional" marriage vows - 'for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love, cherish, and obey, forsaking all others until death do you part' - in other words, a pledge of unconditional love in spite of all circumstance. Those vows are a direct plea for insurances against a female hypergamy that would otherwise be unfettered were it not made in the context of being before God and man.“
As Friedrich Nietzsche states about the matter: In love affairs a woman is more barbarian than a man.
This is laughable. Most religious men have wives.
@@rudi5139As a woman, I concur. Women will eviscerate their best friends or sisters if they possess desirable men. Such is life.

Sometimes, I think the terminology of Son of God can be difficult as it seems to confusion some because they take the word 'son' too literally in it's common meaning, when that is not what is mean by Divine Sonship
I could be wrong or even blasphemous, but Jesus Christ is the material avatar of God. Christ is King because I willingly submit to his kingdom, as best as I can understand it.
