@Asha Green Yes a very rude commenter. No Christian charity. Maybe a secular humanist and not a Christian? I think they call them “trolls” but not sure. To me a “Troll” is an ugly and cranky monster who lives in the mud under a bridge, but apparently there is a new definition as in a type of fisherman trolling and hoping for a bite.

Excellent work Dr. Martin. I really appreciate your reasoned tone and well thought-out arguments. You set a great example for how we, the laity, ought to conduct ourselves when talking about the crisis within the Church. I'll pray for your work to continue and be fruitful. God bless you.

@@EnilionVeno Me too. I am grateful for the priest willing to hear my confession and for the humbling of it. We know that it is Jesus there hearing and forgiving and the priest is a spiritual facilitator of the sacrament.
Oy vey! Cardinal Kaspar and Georgetown, perfect match. I was a grad student across the Potomac. Georgetown was and is way out of wack. I never saw the errors disappear, they just didn’t “come out of the closet”, but it was rampant, in cliques in many university and monastery settings. I ran into it at many a conference. One priest got so mad at my remarks he got up to the podium and like a baby said, “ someone here has really hurt the feelings of the speaker.” I thought so be it. Christ did not tell us to compromise the truth nor accept compromise.
I am 71 years old. I've lived through all this nonsense. Loved Pope John Paul 2. Francis is despicable. Leading souls to Hell. Yes! Bishop Barron there is a Hell.
Linda Brown I totally agree with you, miss Linda. I’m very close to your age and I’ve seen a lot also. There is a hell and I hope to avoid it. I’m still worried about my kids and grandkids now. I pray for them daily. Bishop Barron and many others are doing a great disservice to the would-be faithful.
@@martaacosta4415 - if there is a hell we all have much to fear but thank God , thank God , hell is only on earth and we are the cause of it , yes us human beings cause hell and not God . so relax and let god be God!
I am a Catholic of 82 years I am a sinner I pray for this country I am very upset president Trump will not be president for 4 More years why because he was helping babies God needs our prayers please say the rosary everyday for help
Dear Mr. Pomponi, may the Lord bless you for your concerns. I will remember you and our country on my way to work tomorrow morning as I pray my Rosary. God bless you!
But Trump has not lost the election. He won in a landslide. The media and the Dems keep insisting Biden won. When the Supreme Court rules, illegal votes will be discarded and Trump will be declared the winner.

I am strongly pulled to share this with many family members both outside our Church and some who believe they are MOSTLY within our Church. But I already have the reputation of being sanctimonious (and a conservative!). Having sent other messages without any success, I am fearful that I may be worried about them and not see my own sinfulness. Clarity, please.
I believe that, sadly, you - and I - have a LOT of company! The "New World Order/Great Reset" is all about removing God from society and eradicating any sense of morality. Our Lady promised this more than once (i.e., bishop will be against bishop and cardinal will be against cardinal, etc.) and we are witnessing it. Jesus promised that we will be persecuted for following Him, but He also promised "Be not afraid" and that He will remain with us to the end of time. His words in today's (Sunday) Gospel (MT 25:31-46) are the only place in Scripture where we hear directly from Jesus about the final judgment. As our pastor said last night, if you know but one passage, know this one! And keep praying! God Bless you. 🙏🙏🙏

You are right Ralph Martin, it is not the external mundane culture that influences and the coz of the decline of Catholic Church but the clergy, the priests cannot clearly explain and expound it to the Church. Meaning, if they can't explain it clearly, it means they don't understand what they believe in.
I watch one of Dr Martin's videos 3 or 5 times per week. I am hungry for the truth that he proclaims. Thank you, Dr. Martin for being a beacon of Light!
I'm frustrated that he didn't touch on the sex abuse crisis. I know that there's other real dangers, but I think that crisis is a HUGE part of undermining the Church's credibility, both internally and with society. How are lay people supposed to follow the teaching on sexuality if the clergy, if the BISHOPS, aren't? Or not even holding their own who don't accountable? No, that stuff doesn't directly affect the TEACHING of the Church, but that stuff matters to people in the pews.
I saw a video of a conference given by Polish priest-exorcist Fr. Peter Glass where he mentioned in one of his exorcisms the evil spirit referred to a particular Mass that there were only actually 3 true believers present there despite there being many people and Fr. said he hoped the priest was one of those 3.
In the process of reading the book with my husband right now. I can tell you it is disturbing, but so true that you don’t throw out the baby with the bath water. My belief is not in these men but in our Lord Jesus Christ; the Holy Spirit is present and active. We find our homilies leave us lacking or questioning about what was being said or not said. This has really helped and can’t wait to get into it more in depth.
Dr. Martin, I've been listening to you through the years since I first was introduced to "The Choices We Face" on EWTN back in 1987. I have worked in various catechetical and youth ministry positions pretty much all my adult life, and to this day, I often use the opening words on The Choices We Face taken from Mt 7:13-14 on the Broad vs. Narrow way. Your voice ringing out that Scripture has always stuck with me, and I always use those verses to counter my students when they try to use the "everyone is doing it" argument. These words of Christ were confirmed by Our Lady to the children at Fatima when she said, "Souls are falling into Hell like snowflakes from the sky". Too bad Bishop Barron doesn't get it.
Mr.martin I am a doubting Tomas when the holy spirit reached for me after an embarrassing, 30 + year of holding of the suffering to go to confession wow our Lord picked me up from the depths of the pit god bless you sir and your whiteness to the gospel in light john
Ralph, Strange that an encounter with Mary brought me back to the Church. After 5 books, I'm working on a sixth that I hope to open up many challenges we have within the Church. So glad to see you are saying the same things as solid doctrines and dogmas. Even Roy Schoeman is on the exact same page... PAX Jim
I am studying reading the book of heaven. What's coming is the kingdom of heaven upon the earth. The more people know of this jesus wants to give it to all of them and to proclaimed it. It is the end of the evil one and he knows this. FIAT 🙏 et amen
I'll answer that in one word. Vatican II. The hierarchy changed the mass, rewrote the bible and catechism, and didn't teach me as much in the following 45 years as I learned in my childhood.There is one of my six children still with the faith who is practicing, (the same for my younger sister) My brother dropped out. I drank the VII cool-aid early-on and true church evolved into a protestant church service with a crucifix hanging in front. I've left that church for the Traditional Church and am never going back. Next, these so-called shepherds are locking church doors, limiting attendance, requiring masks and removing those who don't belong in the church. The government is controlling bishops these days the bishops are being obedient to their orders. You are not convincing me. People are begging for the church to return to it's original foundation. What you are preaching here, has been preached over the past 50 years and few people care.
Amen. Found the tlm 2.5 years ago. Unfortunately neocons think the only things in the Church we should pay attention to is Post councilor. But we have rich tradition of 2020 years
Thanks so much for this Dr martin. Its wonderful you know Bishop Julian Porteous from the Diocese of Hobart in Australia. I met Fr Julian back when he was a priest with the Disciples of Jesus Community in Sydney back in 1990. He is an inspiring spirit-filled Bishop. Its time for the Laity to rise up, to pray for and defend our priests and to stand in the power of the Holy Spirit against the powers of darkness, that are currently causing apostasy. There is a global confusion and deception that is coming upon the world, and this pandemic was the trigger for this global deception. May the Return of Christ the King come soon!
@Metanoia Faith Good to hear from you my brother-in-Christ. I do not often chat it up on CA anymore, so the chance of running into your always clear and faithful Catholic sensibility is no longer frequent. Take care and Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam! John in PA
As always, you are the voice of truth and for this I am so grateful. Praying for my role in all this. Very blessed, yet imploring grace to live each and every day under His reign. Peace. Amen.
Thank you Ralph Martin and God's Blessings be upon you Always. I am 69 years of age.what keeps my Love for Our Church is My Holy Rosary. Sorry for my english Sir.
I hope Bishop Robert Barron - who’s been teaching for years that we can dare to hope that hell is empty - listens to this. He is leading many souls into confusion.
I hope it’s empty too but I think it will be heavily populated. Our Lady at Fatima was very concerned that many souls were perishing from the sins of the flesh. What was once called sin is now called sexual freedom. Very concerning if all that freedom leads to eternal separation from God. I pray often that God will save souls from hell, all souls, but “the wages of sin are death” and if we die unrepentent isn’t that the end of mercy? I hope not, but I think so. We are saved by Jesus atonement and our belief in him it is said but even the demons believe. I think a proud unrepentant sinner is in grave danger.
From the liturgy of the hours: Christ Jesus, you welcome all who call upon you in need, bring into your wedding feast those who beg at the door. Come Lord Jesus
All things are possible with God! You are missing the second part. No matter what you do, if you truly and completely and totally repent in your heart and soul, it is in God's power to forgive. Repent doesn’t mean you are “sorry” and sin again. Repentance is a total transformational change.
Thank you Ralph for this guidance, I have sent it to my Priest who has watered down the message about hell. I hope he watches and buys your book, I will be x
In the Breviary, St. Ignatius says, (I paraphrase) "So many are being lost because many priests neglect their vocation of spreading the Gospel." IMO this means that the Church and the Sacraments leads us to heaven. So people of other religions, Hindus, Muslims, Atheists, etc. will be lost unless they receive the aid of the Church and the Sacraments. Hence the Church and the Sacraments are needed even for non-Catholics or non-Christians, needed for their Salvation. "No one goes to the Father except through Me." Christ, in varilous ways, speaks to all people. (John, chapter 1, verse 9). Such people do not know the name of Christ, but if they harken to Christ's message, they are saved through Christ. From Canada.
Dear brother in CHRIST Jesus the son of Mother Mary ,the mother of almighty ,u are delivered by the bondage of sin . Who ever has Mother Mary and her son no evil can dare to confuse and separate from love of almighty John 3.16.I watched yrs talk on 26.12.2020 . Wonderful wonderful. Let's go to our divine Mother Mary .and surrender Vatican city and the tradition of catholic church's faith .,because devil's snares can't destroy the BELIEVERS of Jesus of Mother Mary. So go on teaching u r accompanied by Mother Mary and the all saints of Jesus. I am praying for u.🤝🙏😁🤲💃💃💃💃
@Patrick Montgomery Could you not find yourself a hobby and leave us in peace, or better still, get hold of Scott Hahn's book "Rome sweet Home" and learn the truth about the Catholic Church (broaden your horizon, open up your mind, the Holy Spirit will come rushing in) Be at peace.
@Patrick Montgomery Your overuse of punctuation and capital letters doesn't make you seem very calm. Roman (the correct title is actually Latin) is only one of over twenty rites and all are in communion with each other. That's what makes it universal. All are Christian, and none are "denominations" with competing dogmas.
Praise God for what you have done since the '80s!!! I sent your book to my pastor, my son, a Father of Mercy, and my bishop, who knows you and already had the book from you. So he passed Crisis on to someone else in the Chancery. All 3 commented positively on what they had read. AMDG!!!
In Manila 30 years ago...the bells ring and thousands on the street fall to their knees for angelus or at least bow. Today - 10 million filipinos under Crdinal Tagle's watch have lapsed from the faith in his archdiocese- a similar number lapsed in the other great catholic city Buenos Aries under Begoglio's watch. The great wrecking balls are here.
Not long now. The Roman Catholic Church will soon be wiped out from the face of the planet for good as defined in Revelation 18. Amen. Quote: "Revelation 18 1 ¶And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. 3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies. 4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. 6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. 7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. 8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her. 9 ¶And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, 10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. 11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: 12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, 13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all. 15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, 16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! 17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, 18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city! 19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate. 20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her. 21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. 22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee; 23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. 24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth. "
We are not fallen creatures, the angels are, we are not meant to be humanly immortal, we are given life as a gift. It's all a gift, not punishment. The church is SO CLOSE to the truth, it simply uses to much word salad Keep it simple. God loves you.
Hello We get confused when ,we are not fully converted by the dogmas and truths ,contained ,in the Bible and tradition ,within Our church. Confusion reveals that we must grow in our belief ,and conversion daily . We will grow , for the Lord is at work within us ,transforming us ,to know His voice and follow Him. All teaching contrary to the teaching of Jesus, head of our church,must be rejected. When we are confused ,that reveals we have not yet become convinced and excepted ,thatJesus is the son of God. A priest friend ,told me , when we do not agree ,with the teaching of Jesus, guess who is wrong? 83 yr. old cradle Catholic on the on going journey of conversion till the day ,that I will see Him face to face all by Grace! Excuse grammar. Love your teachings !
I have bought and am reading A Church in Crisis. It it truly disturbing to learn that Adrienne von Speyr has been named a Servant of God. She seems to have been a rather disturbed person. Not saintly at all. Her relationship with Hans Urs con Balthasar calls him into great question too. Does the Church ever revoke these SOG things?
I became a Catholic not too long ago, feel like the wool has been pulled over my eyes, by the Curia. I keep trying to move away from my sins yet I'm surrounded by priests and Catholic groups that want to promote my sins.
I assure you and encourage you that your instincts were and are correct to have gravitated to the Church that Jesus Christ established as His on earth. Do not be discouraged, but continue to strive to be holy as it says in Hebrews 12:14, "Strive for peace with everyone, and for that holiness without which no one will see the Lord." I am sorry that the graces through the sacraments are not readily available to strengthen you during these trying times. Despite unfaithful and poorly catechized priests and Catholic groups you are not alone.
Remain faithful, hang in there and know there are MANY who feel as you do and are praying fervently for restoration and justice. Don't leave Jesus because of Judas(s).
Thank you, Dr. Martin! The culture war in the Church is as fierce as the culture war in society at large. The Deep State and the Deep Church are joined at the hip.... Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!
How can Adrienne von Speyr credibly claim to have seen Hell, if she didn't see anyone there in torment? What the hell did she see that made her think she saw Hell in the first place? Why doesn't the Church ask these questions?
I took a 4 year Bible college taught by teachers from that taught the future priest. Half way through I decided I had to believe every word of the Bible or why bother
God demands moral perfection but most people are sinners and some people are worse sinners than other people so were not all equal as sinners either just like there are multiple levels to purgatory for sins not one level in purgatory some closer to heaven and other levels closer to hell..the ugly truth is that there is 0 sin in heaven and everyone is suffering for their sins in purgatory or hell
Also this is Catholic and so how can I share with those who are not Catholic and do not believe it has any authority??? They are Christian but not Catholic.... help!!! They won’t listen since this assumes the Catholic Church is the way to go!
Question???PLEASE? When I share this with those who are not Catholic and who do not think they are sinners then this is only helpful if the legitimacy of the Catholic Church is necessary. How do I start there?
Start with them. Walk with them and get to know them then present it in a way and at a time that they are likely to be most receptive. Like our Blessed Lord on the Road to Emmaus with the two disciples after His Resurrection, maybe read that passage of Sacred Scripture and meditate upon it. Also know your own limitations and strengths, and work witn the talents the Lord has given you. It is different for each relationship, because it is a relationship and it is a journey. But be courageous as well, do not fear reprisal, remember why we are doing this, to keep them from eternal seperation from God, forever in agony, without hope, without love, and without goodness and in punishment for sin their sins. We wise, be joyful, be full of charity and compassion for them, and always speak the truth with gentleness and mercy, but say it.
Also be prudent, I know from experience, do not nag people, make every moment about it, or try to force them to do it, these will all only drive them away. Bishop Barron gives much good insight on how to go about this. Where there are flaws (or at least he is obtuse and less clear) in his approach or theology adapt accordingly, but there is alot to be learned in his videos. Look over the First Letter of St.Paul to Timothy and Gospel of Matthew 18: 15-20, for what our Blessed Lord says about the matter.
Dr Ralph there is no confessions in our Churches at the moment , due to lockdown, we can’t sing in church or praise its hard to find God in our World , the other is legislation no Christian thoughts are mentioned, we try to speak out nobody is listening, after the holy hour, as the monstrance is been put away I wish our priest in faith lifted the monstrance up and bless us, There are no masses either , just feeling lost , but I believe in God,
God is not limited, and grace must come before faith or works can mean anything. Gracia prima. But they must opened enough to be willing to recieve somewhere. The job of finding the unlocked door, laboring and praying on the behalf of them that they may open the door and showing them its importance. We have crosses to bear and work to do. Let us prep the soil and tend the plants of the field that a wonderfully great harvest may be readied for the Kingdom of Heaven. But remember that God acts first, and we are all sinners, we all have concupisence, we are all guilty. We must repent and we must urge others to repent, but do not limit God or declare He can not reach them. If they can be shown to repent they can be brought to where their salvation, cleansing and healing can begin. Mortal sin must be rooted out, but if one dies in grace even while the struggle goes on to overcome the temptation, one is still saved. But that is spiritual Russian Roulette and of course intentionally entering such a state is gravely negligent. A hardened heart can not beat though. It is their unwillingness to concede that they are in need of salvation in all the forms that denial comes in, that must be removed. Our Blessed Lord came to call the sinner not the just. If only the just could answer the call, then we are all doomed. It is only God's grace that can remove the enemy's strongholds. Do not place that task to them without God's assistance or they have no hope. If you had in mind that it must be repentence, and it was a miscommunication, please be patient with me brother, I was not certain and wanted it to be clear for the sake of others. God bless you. Through our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Who is the Divine Physician, the Divine Teacher, and the Just Judge for us all. Amen.
@@LostArchivist It is ALL God's work. Without Him we can do NOTHING. The ability to understand and recieve the message, even repentance itself is a gift. My point is that the strongholds that Satan has upon our souls have to be dealt with for anyone to believe and then grow. The old nature must be crucified in order for the new NATURE to develop unhindered.
I have come back to the Catholic Church 7 years ago and at the time OUR LORD was saying to me “ give me your heart and I will do the rest “. I keep my eyes on OUR LORD through this walk of love with my/ our BRIDEGROOM .I hear many many voices but OUR LORD said a strangers voice you will not listen to , well Dr. Ralph Martin is a voice OUR HOLY SPIRIT speaks through so when he has something to say we need to listen . THE HOLY SPIRIT is saying “LOVE GOD WITH ALL YOUR HERAT WITH ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH AND LOVE YOUR NEIGHBORS AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF AMEN.
The Saints and Doctors of the Church teach that the majority of mankind is Damned, and that includes most Catholics. Let us not despair but redouble our efforts!
Ralph Martin has been a consistent, humble and valuable voice on the frontline of the culture war and war for the soul of the Church.
Amen we are si blessed to have him teach us & speak the truth.

Just saying hi... one Bernadette to another...
A lot of people I know don't feel guilt or shame. A numbed conscience must be the most serious disorder.
Preach, Ralph! In my 57 years as a Catholic, I have heard contraception addressed only once.
This is absolutely Holy Spirit driven. Thank you Mr Martin for being a conduit to the Truth!!
God creates all life and makes no mistakes whether Muslim or Hindu or Christian or gay! All will be in heaven! The good news
This is Holy instruction and teaching! Thank you Mr. Martin.
This REALLY woke me up. God Bless Mr. Martin, and the St. Paul Ctr. for putting this on the internet. I salute you all. Former LCDR John Sullivan, USNR, sends...
Now i got urge to go to confession.
I guess i shoud say "good job"
Edit: done
Excellent idea 👍🏻
@Patrick Montgomery i dont understand, sorry.
@Patrick Montgomery subject has been debated many times, i was not convinced to change.
@@EnilionVeno Me too. I am grateful for the priest willing to hear my confession and for the humbling of it. We know that it is Jesus there hearing and forgiving and the priest is a spiritual facilitator of the sacrament.
Oy vey! Cardinal Kaspar and Georgetown, perfect match. I was a grad student across the Potomac. Georgetown was and is way out of wack. I never saw the errors disappear, they just didn’t “come out of the closet”, but it was rampant, in cliques in many university and monastery settings. I ran into it at many a conference. One priest got so mad at my remarks he got up to the podium and like a baby said, “ someone here has really hurt the feelings of the speaker.” I thought so be it. Christ did not tell us to compromise the truth nor accept compromise.
Good for you
I am 71 years old. I've lived through all this nonsense. Loved Pope John Paul 2. Francis is despicable. Leading souls to Hell. Yes! Bishop Barron there is a Hell.
Linda Brown I totally agree with you, miss Linda. I’m very close to your age and I’ve seen a lot also. There is a hell and I hope to avoid it. I’m still worried about my kids and grandkids now. I pray for them daily. Bishop Barron and many others are doing a great disservice to the would-be faithful.
@@martaacosta4415 - if there is a hell we all have much to fear but thank God , thank God , hell is only on earth and we are the cause of it , yes us human beings cause hell and not God . so relax and let god be God!
I am a Catholic of 82 years I am a sinner I pray for this country I am very upset president Trump will not be president for 4 More years why because he was helping babies God needs our prayers please say the rosary everyday for help
Dear Mr. Pomponi, may the Lord bless you for your concerns. I will remember you and our country on my way to work tomorrow morning as I pray my Rosary. God bless you!
But Trump has not lost the election. He won in a landslide. The media and the Dems keep insisting Biden won. When the Supreme Court rules, illegal votes will be discarded and Trump will be declared the winner.
Ralph Martin, you are awesome ! Every blessing in Jesus' Name.
Thank you Mr. Martin for your talk, your ministry, and your hard work in helping bring souls (back) to Christ. God bless you!
Viva Cristo Rey 🙏 Looking forward for you to come to the southern swamp in FL. God Won Biggly 💪🙏
What a still, calm voice bearing the message of our times.
Thank you sir Ralph Martin for your statement. A true servant of the Lord our God. Praise be unto Him for the wisdom given unto you!
If we never would have legalized the killing of the child in the womb then none of this confusion would have taken place!

I think the confusion is what allowed for legalizing the killing of children in the womb.
I am strongly pulled to share this with many family members both outside our Church and some who believe they are MOSTLY within our Church. But I already have the reputation of being sanctimonious (and a conservative!). Having sent other messages without any success, I am fearful that I may be worried about them and not see my own sinfulness. Clarity, please.
Sanctimonious would mean you feel morally superior to them. Charitable would mean you are concerned for their eternal souls.
I believe that, sadly, you - and I - have a LOT of company! The "New World Order/Great Reset" is all about removing God from society and eradicating any sense of morality. Our Lady promised this more than once (i.e., bishop will be against bishop and cardinal will be against cardinal, etc.) and we are witnessing it. Jesus promised that we will be persecuted for following Him, but He also promised "Be not afraid" and that He will remain with us to the end of time.
His words in today's (Sunday) Gospel (MT 25:31-46) are the only place in Scripture where we hear directly from Jesus about the final judgment. As our pastor said last night, if you know but one passage, know this one!
And keep praying! God Bless you. 🙏🙏🙏
We have got to try very hard! A very sincere man, Ralph Martin.
Amen beautiful thank you may God bless you
Your a blessing for all of us, thank you.
Many today don’t believe what they do or how they are living is sinful. They conform to the world and not to the ways of God.
Yes and that is why it’s called secularism because secularism means “of the world.”

The Church is in Crisis, many will be lead astray from this confusion, a sign for the end, but Jesus is in control. The Church will not be destroyed.
@Patrick Montgomery nn ñ
@Patrick Montgomery Give it up
Thank you for the wake up call, Dr. Martin.
You are right Ralph Martin, it is not the external mundane culture that influences and the coz of the decline of Catholic Church but the clergy, the priests cannot clearly explain and expound it to the Church. Meaning, if they can't explain it clearly, it means they don't understand what they believe in.
I watch one of Dr
Martin's videos 3 or 5 times per week. I am hungry for the truth that he proclaims. Thank you, Dr. Martin for being a beacon of Light!
Wolves have been right in front of us since V2 and have been feasting ferociously. So happy you seem to be waking up.
I'm frustrated that he didn't touch on the sex abuse crisis. I know that there's other real dangers, but I think that crisis is a HUGE part of undermining the Church's credibility, both internally and with society.
How are lay people supposed to follow the teaching on sexuality if the clergy, if the BISHOPS, aren't? Or not even holding their own who don't accountable? No, that stuff doesn't directly affect the TEACHING of the Church, but that stuff matters to people in the pews.
@Dr. Ralph Martin Martin um...this wasn't a particularly convincing impression. Good try though.
As if this isn’t addressed on its own in a million different places.
I saw a video of a conference given by Polish priest-exorcist Fr. Peter Glass where he mentioned in one of his exorcisms the evil spirit referred to a particular Mass that there were only actually 3 true believers present there despite there being many people and Fr. said he hoped the priest was one of those 3.
Thank you, Dr. Ralph Martin for speaking truth in a world of so many untruth!
REPENT !!! This is chatisement!
This man speaks the truth and my oil lamp is running very low. I need to move and when I do it will be beside s Catholic Church.
In the process of reading the book with my husband right now. I can tell you it is disturbing, but so true that you don’t throw out the baby with the bath water. My belief is not in these men but in our Lord Jesus Christ; the Holy Spirit is present and active. We find our homilies leave us lacking or questioning about what was being said or not said. This has really helped and can’t wait to get into it more in depth.
Dr. Martin, I've been listening to you through the years since I first was introduced to "The Choices We Face" on EWTN back in 1987. I have worked in various catechetical and youth ministry positions pretty much all my adult life, and to this day, I often use the opening words on The Choices We Face taken from Mt 7:13-14 on the Broad vs. Narrow way. Your voice ringing out that Scripture has always stuck with me, and I always use those verses to counter my students when they try to use the "everyone is doing it" argument. These words of Christ were confirmed by Our Lady to the children at Fatima when she said, "Souls are falling into Hell like snowflakes from the sky". Too bad Bishop Barron doesn't get it.
Mr.martin I am a doubting Tomas when the holy spirit reached for me after an embarrassing, 30 + year of holding of the suffering to go to confession wow our Lord picked me up from the depths of the pit god bless you sir and your whiteness to the gospel in light john
Thank you so much
Thank you Ralph! God bless you for your courageous and plain teaching with clarity, which is charity. 🙏🏼
Ralph, Strange that an encounter with Mary brought me back to the Church. After 5 books, I'm working on a sixth that I hope to open up many challenges we have within the Church. So glad to see you are saying the same things as solid doctrines and dogmas. Even Roy Schoeman is on the exact same page... PAX Jim
I am studying reading the book of heaven. What's coming is the kingdom of heaven upon the earth. The more people know of this jesus wants to give it to all of them and to proclaimed it. It is the end of the evil one and he knows this. FIAT 🙏 et amen
Fiat Fiat Fiat!
I'll answer that in one word. Vatican II. The hierarchy changed the mass, rewrote the bible and catechism, and didn't teach me as much in the following 45 years as I learned in my childhood.There is one of my six children still with the faith who is practicing, (the same for my younger sister) My brother dropped out.
I drank the VII cool-aid early-on and true church evolved into a protestant church service with a crucifix hanging in front.
I've left that church for the Traditional Church and am never going back.
Next, these so-called shepherds are locking church doors, limiting attendance, requiring masks and removing those who don't belong in the church. The government is controlling bishops these days the bishops are being obedient to their orders.
You are not convincing me. People are begging for the church to return to it's original foundation. What you are preaching here, has been preached over the past 50 years and few people care.
Amen. Found the tlm 2.5 years ago. Unfortunately neocons think the only things in the Church we should pay attention to is Post councilor. But we have rich tradition of 2020 years
Thanks so much for this Dr martin. Its wonderful you know Bishop Julian Porteous from the Diocese of Hobart in Australia. I met Fr Julian back when he was a priest with the Disciples of Jesus Community in Sydney back in 1990. He is an inspiring spirit-filled Bishop. Its time for the Laity to rise up, to pray for and defend our priests and to stand in the power of the Holy Spirit against the powers of darkness, that are currently causing apostasy. There is a global confusion and deception that is coming upon the world, and this pandemic was the trigger for this global deception. May the Return of Christ the King come soon!
@Metanoia Faith Good to hear from you my brother-in-Christ. I do not often chat it up on CA anymore, so the chance of running into your always clear and faithful Catholic sensibility is no longer frequent. Take care and Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam! John in PA
As always, you are the voice of truth and for this I am so grateful. Praying for my role in all this. Very blessed, yet imploring grace to live each and every day under His reign. Peace. Amen.
Thank you Ralph Martin and God's Blessings be upon you Always. I am 69 years of age.what keeps my Love for Our Church is My Holy Rosary. Sorry for my english Sir.
I hope Bishop Robert Barron - who’s been teaching for years that we can dare to hope that hell is empty - listens to this. He is leading many souls into confusion.
I hope it’s empty too but I think it will be heavily populated. Our Lady at Fatima was very concerned that many souls were perishing from the sins of the flesh. What was once called sin is now called sexual freedom. Very concerning if all that freedom leads to eternal separation from God. I pray often that God will save souls from hell, all souls, but “the wages of sin are death” and if we die unrepentent isn’t that the end of mercy? I hope not, but I think so. We are saved by Jesus atonement and our belief in him it is said but even the demons believe. I think a proud unrepentant sinner is in grave danger.
the Mafia of Saint Gallen and BERgoglio
Ralph Martin you didn’t do a audible version ughhhh I only like listening to my books .
It's coming! we'll keep you updated.
From the liturgy of the hours: Christ Jesus, you welcome all who call upon you in need, bring into your wedding feast those who beg at the door. Come Lord Jesus
Sorry, but at 27:00 he lies. You can mess up to the point that you won't be forgiven. See Hebrews 6:6 and 10:26
Fr Ripperger and others have talked about God defining a limit to our sins when He will finally say "no more".
All things are possible with God! You are missing the second part. No matter what you do, if you truly and completely and totally repent in your heart and soul, it is in God's power to forgive. Repent doesn’t mean you are “sorry” and sin again. Repentance is a total transformational change.
Thank you Dr Martin God bless you and your family!
Thank you Ralph for this guidance, I have sent it to my Priest who has watered down the message about hell. I hope he watches and buys your book, I will be x
Keep going Ralph, don't stop speaking the truth.
You are the best teacher, Dr. Martin. Thank you for your great dedication.
In the Breviary, St. Ignatius says, (I paraphrase) "So many are being lost because many priests neglect their vocation of spreading the Gospel." IMO this means that the Church and the Sacraments leads us to heaven. So people of other religions, Hindus, Muslims, Atheists, etc. will be lost unless they receive the aid of the Church and the Sacraments. Hence the Church and the Sacraments are needed even for non-Catholics or non-Christians, needed for their Salvation. "No one goes to the Father except through Me." Christ, in varilous ways, speaks to all people. (John, chapter 1, verse 9). Such people do not know the name of Christ, but if they harken to Christ's message, they are saved through Christ. From Canada.
The Catholic Church has always been in crisis.
2000yrs
We ain’t of this world.
Dear brother in CHRIST Jesus the son of Mother Mary ,the mother of almighty ,u are delivered by the bondage of sin . Who ever has Mother Mary and her son no evil can dare to confuse and separate from love of almighty John 3.16.I watched yrs talk on 26.12.2020 . Wonderful wonderful. Let's go to our divine Mother Mary .and surrender Vatican city and the tradition of catholic church's faith .,because devil's snares can't destroy the BELIEVERS of Jesus of Mother Mary. So go on teaching u r accompanied by Mother Mary and the all saints of Jesus. I am praying for u.🤝🙏😁🤲💃💃💃💃

@Patrick Montgomery Could you not find yourself a hobby and leave us in peace, or better still, get hold of Scott Hahn's book "Rome sweet Home" and learn the truth about the Catholic Church (broaden your horizon, open up your mind, the Holy Spirit will come rushing in) Be at peace.
@Patrick Montgomery why not mention satan, our Lord Jesus did?
sarah sabino Amen! Be at peace! So many now falling prey to the fiery darts of the enemy. Triumph of The Immaculate Heart ♥️ look to the East".
@Patrick Montgomery Wow, all those question marks and stars. Calm down brother, be at peace. Praise the Lord.
@Patrick Montgomery Your overuse of punctuation and capital letters doesn't make you seem very calm.
Roman (the correct title is actually Latin) is only one of over twenty rites and all are in communion with each other. That's what makes it universal. All are Christian, and none are "denominations" with competing dogmas.
Praise God for what you have done since the '80s!!! I sent your book to my pastor, my son, a Father of Mercy, and my bishop, who knows you and already had the book from you. So he passed Crisis on to someone else in the Chancery. All 3 commented positively on what they had read. AMDG!!!
In Manila 30 years ago...the bells ring and thousands on the street fall to their knees for angelus or at least bow. Today - 10 million filipinos under Crdinal Tagle's watch have lapsed from the faith in his archdiocese- a similar number lapsed in the other great catholic city Buenos Aries under Begoglio's watch. The great wrecking balls are here.
Not long now. The Roman Catholic Church will soon be wiped out from the face of the planet for good as defined in Revelation 18. Amen. Quote:
"Revelation 18
1 ¶And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
9 ¶And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.
15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,
16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.
21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;
23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
"
We are not fallen creatures, the angels are, we are not meant to be humanly immortal, we are given life as a gift.
It's all a gift, not punishment.
The church is SO CLOSE to the truth, it simply uses to much word salad
Keep it simple.
God loves you.
Hello
We get confused when ,we are not fully converted by the dogmas and truths ,contained ,in the Bible and tradition ,within Our church. Confusion reveals that we must grow in our belief ,and conversion daily . We will grow , for the Lord is at work within us ,transforming
us ,to know His voice and follow Him.
All teaching contrary to the teaching of Jesus, head of our church,must be rejected. When we are confused ,that reveals we have not yet become convinced and excepted ,thatJesus is the son of God. A priest friend ,told me , when we do not agree ,with the teaching of Jesus, guess who is wrong?
83 yr. old cradle Catholic on the on going journey of conversion till the day ,that I will see Him face to face all by Grace! Excuse grammar.
Love your teachings !
I have bought and am reading A Church in Crisis. It it truly disturbing to learn that Adrienne von Speyr has been named a Servant of God. She seems to have been a rather disturbed person. Not saintly at all. Her relationship with Hans Urs con Balthasar calls him into great question too. Does the Church ever revoke these SOG things?
I became a Catholic not too long ago, feel like the wool has been pulled over my eyes, by the Curia. I keep trying to move away from my sins yet I'm surrounded by priests and Catholic groups that want to promote my sins.
I assure you and encourage you that your instincts were and are correct to have gravitated to the Church that Jesus Christ established as His on earth. Do not be discouraged, but continue to strive to be holy as it says in Hebrews 12:14, "Strive for peace with everyone, and for that holiness without which no one will see the Lord." I am sorry that the graces through the sacraments are not readily available to strengthen you during these trying times. Despite unfaithful and poorly catechized priests and Catholic groups you are not alone.
Remain faithful, hang in there and know there are MANY who feel as you do and are praying fervently for restoration and justice. Don't leave Jesus because of Judas(s).
Thank you, Dr. Martin! The culture war in the Church is as fierce as the culture war in society at large. The Deep State and the Deep Church are joined at the hip.... Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us!
God creates all life and makes no mistakes whether Muslim or Hindu or Christian or gay! All will be in heaven! The good news!
As the ‘Bishpos‘ won‘t listen then where is The true Shepherd to be saught ? Jesus told St Paul "My grace is sufficient for thee"
How can Adrienne von Speyr credibly claim to have seen Hell, if she didn't see anyone there in torment? What the hell did she see that made her think she saw Hell in the first place? Why doesn't the Church ask these questions?
Thank you very much for this. Very true and helpful. God bless you all.
I loved this so much I had to listen to it again. Brilliant, Dr Ralph!
I took a 4 year Bible college taught by teachers from that taught the future priest. Half way through I decided I had to believe every word of the Bible or why bother
God demands moral perfection but most people are sinners and some people are worse sinners than other people so were not all equal as sinners either just like there are multiple levels to purgatory for sins not one level in purgatory some closer to heaven and other levels closer to hell..the ugly truth is that there is 0 sin in heaven and everyone is suffering for their sins in purgatory or hell
I loved Fullfillment of all desire.Ralph Martin.
@Dr. Ralph Martin Martin Are you talking to me?
so God dumped Trump as a punishment for our sins? ... and people prayed prayed and prayed for his victory
This is Tops! Truth is Simple because Love is Simple.
Also this is Catholic and so how can I share with those who are not Catholic and do not believe it has any authority??? They are Christian but not Catholic.... help!!!
They won’t listen since this assumes the Catholic Church is the way to go!
Indeed the Catholic Church is the only One Jesus instituted. Best to hust state truth clearly
Typology espescially is important.
So true our young people are loseing there way no faith no belief I pray for our children and the next generation 🍀🍀
Question???PLEASE?
When I share this with those who are not Catholic and who do not think they are sinners then this is only helpful if the legitimacy of the Catholic Church is necessary.
How do I start there?
Start with them. Walk with them and get to know them then present it in a way and at a time that they are likely to be most receptive. Like our Blessed Lord on the Road to Emmaus with the two disciples after His Resurrection, maybe read that passage of Sacred Scripture and meditate upon it.
Also know your own limitations and strengths, and work witn the talents the Lord has given you. It is different for each relationship, because it is a relationship and it is a journey. But be courageous as well, do not fear reprisal, remember why we are doing this, to keep them from eternal seperation from God, forever in agony, without hope, without love, and without goodness and in punishment for sin their sins. We wise, be joyful, be full of charity and compassion for them, and always speak the truth with gentleness and mercy, but say it.
Also be prudent, I know from experience, do not nag people, make every moment about it, or try to force them to do it, these will all only drive them away. Bishop Barron gives much good insight on how to go about this. Where there are flaws (or at least he is obtuse and less clear) in his approach or theology adapt accordingly, but there is alot to be learned in his videos.
Look over the First Letter of St.Paul to Timothy and Gospel of Matthew 18: 15-20, for what our Blessed Lord says about the matter.
We need more priest as Luis Toro and Flaviano Amatulli.
Ralph Martin was here a little less than 40 yrs ago with Fr. Scanlan and the Sword of the Spirit Community
Children must be accompanied by a Parent at all times in this institution
Thank you for speaking the Truth. Sin IS Sin.
I thought you believed in the Holy Spirit--AMEN
do you know your book costs $ 803.00 on Amazon? That can't be true!
OMG, I see that. But his new book is $26.65
Dr Ralph there is no confessions in our Churches at the moment , due to lockdown, we can’t sing in church or praise its hard to find God in our World , the other is legislation no Christian thoughts are mentioned, we try to speak out nobody is listening, after the holy hour, as the monstrance is been put away I wish our priest in faith lifted the monstrance up and bless us, There are no masses either , just feeling lost , but I believe in God,
Thanks Ralph, I trust your teaching.

Yes catholic is in crisis...
Excellent! Thank you!
People can't properly respond to God while the devil is in them. The devil's strongholds MUST be torn down for God's message to get through!
God is not limited, and grace must come before faith or works can mean anything. Gracia prima. But they must opened enough to be willing to recieve somewhere. The job of finding the unlocked door, laboring and praying on the behalf of them that they may open the door and showing them its importance. We have crosses to bear and work to do. Let us prep the soil and tend the plants of the field that a wonderfully great harvest may be readied for the Kingdom of Heaven. But remember that God acts first, and we are all sinners, we all have concupisence, we are all guilty. We must repent and we must urge others to repent, but do not limit God or declare He can not reach them. If they can be shown to repent they can be brought to where their salvation, cleansing and healing can begin. Mortal sin must be rooted out, but if one dies in grace even while the struggle goes on to overcome the temptation, one is still saved. But that is spiritual Russian Roulette and of course intentionally entering such a state is gravely negligent.
A hardened heart can not beat though. It is their unwillingness to concede that they are in need of salvation in all the forms that denial comes in, that must be removed. Our Blessed Lord came to call the sinner not the just. If only the just could answer the call, then we are all doomed. It is only God's grace that can remove the enemy's strongholds. Do not place that task to them without God's assistance or they have no hope.
If you had in mind that it must be repentence, and it was a miscommunication, please be patient with me brother, I was not certain and wanted it to be clear for the sake of others.
God bless you. Through our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Who is the Divine Physician, the Divine Teacher, and the Just Judge for us all. Amen.

It is ALL God's work. Without Him we can do NOTHING. The ability to understand and recieve the message, even repentance itself is a gift. My point is that the strongholds that Satan has upon our souls have to be dealt with for anyone to believe and then grow. The old nature must be crucified in order for the new NATURE to develop unhindered.
@@Jagueyes1 Oh okay! You are talking about the Purgative Way. Sorry my mistake.
I have come back to the Catholic Church 7 years ago and at the time OUR LORD was saying to me “ give me your heart and I will do the rest “. I keep my eyes on OUR LORD through this walk of love with my/ our BRIDEGROOM .I hear many many voices but OUR LORD said a strangers voice you will not listen to , well Dr. Ralph Martin is a voice OUR HOLY SPIRIT speaks through so when he has something to say we need to listen . THE HOLY SPIRIT is saying “LOVE GOD WITH ALL YOUR HERAT WITH ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH AND LOVE YOUR NEIGHBORS AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF AMEN.
Thank you 🙏
Great talk Dr. Martin.

Thank Mr. Martin!
The Saints and Doctors of the Church teach that the majority of mankind is Damned, and that includes most Catholics. Let us not despair but redouble our efforts!
Amen🙏🏻🕊🔥
