I've heard this objection many, many times by protestants. Silly, but kind of sad. I guess they never called their own dad "father" then.
For me, it’s the reductionist attitude of it all. For example: they take this passage literally but not the Eucharist at the Last Supper. How can a person say that the bible is God’s Holy Word but not believe when He says to eat of His flesh and drink of His blood? (That’s rhetorical, in case someone decides to argue with a moot point.)
I try to watch you every day Fr. Mike, you inspire me to be more like a saint each day, God Bless you
What a fantastic jomily and the people were so intent listening they are such a vast congregation getting fed with your gift to explain the Gospel.
I learn so many lessons from your homilies to make my Religious life so rich with these homilies.thank you so much for all these graces.😊
God bless you, Father!
Look at your parish how many people come to mass. God blessyou Fr Mike and your teaching and may God shower you with many more graces. I hear you from Australia. Good priest for our crazy times.
Father Mike , God bless you.
Thank you Father for now being able to explain it in many ways to the naysayers.
This is AMAZING...GOOD FATHERS ARE THE ANSWER...TO THE WORLDS PROBLEMS!!!
That has been on my heart for a long time. Thank you for clarity.
Thank you Father from Canada.
Thank you for this teaching, Father.
Thank you, Father!
Thank you for speaking to the importance of context. When folks miss quote remind them scripture says Judas went and hanged himself, go and do ye likewise. Blessings FATHER,from a Protestant Brother
Morning greetings from Sydney, Father Mike. I loved your homily and in relation to one of your comments, l just read today’s Liturgy, Monday of the 31st week of Ordinary time given by the Jesuit Priests in Ireland through their website (sacred space) which says : we must never forget God’s two great attributes: “His transcendence and His Immamence”.
Shalom, Shalom
Honor your father and mother!

What about the song protestant sing as children father Abraham has many sons, many sons has father Abraham and I am one of them and so are you. How they twist things. It is their pride that gets in the way of truth.
I loved that song as a kid 😂❤
With all due respect , the use of the noun father in that jolly little Sunday School song referred to God’s sacred promise to Abraham that his descendants would populate the whole world. From the onset the Covenant was not solely for Abraham and his offspring, but for the benefit of the entire world. Remember God’s promise, “ Count the stars if you are able. “. God commands. As countless as the stars, he assures Abram, so shall your descendants be” Genesis 15:5
Protestants sing the Father Abraham song in joy and gratitude because of God’s promise. God included you and he included me as part of the family . We serve a God of love without measurability.
It is hurtful to be called proud for honoring God’s promises .
Arguing with Jesus , who knows 100 percent of everything there is to know, and is fundamental goodness, is like flogging a dead horse.
this is good teaching but like so many catholic preachers, the Father rarely cited chapter and verse for his truthful argument as to why we call our priests fathers. Also, what a silent crowd, even when he was asking for response the people sat stock still. We Catholics need to get on fire for our faith and this riest is trying to stir it up but we need to know the bible as he said (its our book in a particular way) but that means familiarity with the chapters . As a Mississippian I can tell you orotestants will always know from whence they quote-even when they get it wrong. We need to know the culture as he said. Still, great preaching !
I love you PAPA GOD!!! Save my soul! amen. The protestants also never receive "their DAILY BREAD". because only in Jesus' Catholic Church can you receive the Holy Eucharist, which Jesus called "THE DAILY BREAD' in the prayer HE taught us to pray. Thank YOU, lord JESUS: our King and our God.
Fr. Mike your homily was awesome as usual. I have a question that does not pertain to your homily,Why do you think out of all the popes that the Blessed Mother thru Sister Lucia demanded a Consecration of Russia to Her Immaculate Heart.I don't understand understand.
Ephesians 2:8-9 "for by grace you have been saved through faith, and not of yourselves it is a GIFT of God. Not of works lest anyman should boast." Salvation is by grace through faith alone, you cannot add anything or you are not under grace. The Greek translation for the word grace is CHARIS meaning "unMERITTED favor." Simply believe the gospel to be saved and be saved permanently. "After you BELIEVED, you were sealed with the holy spirit of promise who is the GUARANTEE of our inherentance until the redemption of the purchased possession."
Romans 11:7 "And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then is it no more grace: otherwise work is no more work."
1 Cor 10:12, Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
Ephesians 3:14-18
2nd Timothy 3: 15 - 16 ... from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.
Catholics would agree with this. It doesn’t Scripture is the ONLY thing for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. It is another way to do those things. For example, 2 Thessalonians 2:15 says, “So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.” Notice by word of mouth OR by letter. This is why Catholics would agree. Scripture is great for correcting. God bless.
"From your infancy"
Paul is referencing the OT scriptures, that speaks of the Savior, since the NT canon had not yet been defined. Also, as mentioned, it doesn't say "only" scripture and Paul had no idea his letters would eventually be included in the NT canon
