What To Do After You Fall into Sin
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 сен 2024
- The temptation to sin doesn’t end after we give into it. In fact, as Fr. Mark-Mary describes, the temptation to sin is afterwards matched in intensity by the temptation to wallow in our sin, and stay in an unforgivable state; unforgivable not because God can’t forgive us, but because we think there’s no way he possibly can after what we’ve done-so we don’t ask for forgiveness. Or, as an alternative, the evil one will tempt us to commit the sin again while believing it doesn’t matter because we already did it anyway.
Fr. Mark-Mary encourages us to take a different path, and choose God’s mercy instead. He tells us to not be like Judas, who let his sin take over-leading to his death; but to be like Peter who begged for forgiveness and received it from the resurrected Jesus. The devil will have us believe our sin is too great to overcome, but there’s a reason why we call God’s mercy divine-because it surpasses human understanding.

Wow, this pops up after I gave into temptation. God truely is out there trying to save me. Thank you, brother.
Me too
Me to
Yes He is, but we must always try to meet Him half way!
Go to confession as soon as you can. Pray the Rosary. If you continue to pray the Rosary you can't continue to sin.
153 fish = 153 Hail Marys in a full Rosay.
It happened to me as well
To hardcore sinners...Don't despair ... come to Jesus,The Divine Mercy.His Blood and Water are waiting for special one to come to Him..
Amen
Amen 🙏🏽

every human being is a sinner, sin being an inevitable outcome of a fallible human nature. No matter how righteous a person is, he or she may at times disobey God through ignorance or forgetfulness ,Remember When Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden tree in paradise, It was Satan who deceived and cajoled them, whereupon they exercised their free will and made an error in judgement. Together, Adam and Eve realised their disobedience, felt remorse and begged for God’s forgiveness, Because God is the all Just and all merciful,God in his infinite mercy and wisdom, forgave them,God set the precedent that He will forgive those who turn to Him in sincere repentance We will all find ourselves in a similar situation as Adam and Eve so Salvation comes from God alone in seeking forgiveness, so when a person seeks forgiveness, he must turn to God submissively with true remorse and beg forgiveness, promising not to repeat the sin. Then and only then will sins be forgiven, so as God says:
The door to forgiveness is open to anyone who seeks it
amen
Something that was portrayed so beautifully in The Passion movie...when Judas betrayed Christ, he isolated himself and turned in on himself. When Peter denied Christ, he went to Mary. Mary shows him love and shares her strength with him, helping to keep his heart open and preparing him for Christ’s forgiveness.
Because Peter has a contemplative heart, and he knew who is the " another Advocate" and he got the explanation of Jesus rightly in John14:16 thats why in 50 AD St.Luke miraculously painted the "another Advocate" as all the Apostles had witness in the Upper Room who is the "Spirit of Truth".
Do you know who is the "another Advocate" and the "Spirit of Truth"?
Peter knew the role of Theotokos from Jesus revelation because he has a contemplative heart unlike Judas who doesn't reach the height of contemplation in prayer.
Mary as the "another Advocate" received the "Spirit of Truth" as her anointing in the upper room..this is the mystery all Christian must embrace..Godbless
Alyssa Wills He did ?
Christian Aaron We don’t know that this happened historically. I was just talking about the film “The Passion of the Christ.” The inclusion of this moment in the movie was just a nice reminder of how Mary can help lead us back to her Son when we’ve fallen.
Alyssa Wills Ok. It does make a lot of sense even if it was recorded in scripture
I meant wasn’t recorded.
Perfect timing , words needed to hear at the time..... thank you
Same pretty funny
same
Yea my brothers I feel y’all it’s tough
Samuel Galicia yeh bruh. Sadly I needed this cuz I just messed up. Praying for y’all to stick it through
Same
This was so good for me. I fall into sin, and have struggled with sexual sin (lust, looking at things I should not look at) for the last ten years. My pattern has been to fall into this sin every 3-6 months over the past 3-4 years. I strive to live for the Lord, but find myself falling into the same besetting sin pattern -- usually when I am alone, isolated and sad. My marriage has been a source of pain for 20 years, and my wife and I have wandered far apart. We no longer live together, but there has been no emotional connection for many, many years. This does not justify my sin. It only gives context to why I fall and to what my trigger points are. I last sinned four months ago, repented, turned to God. But the past four weeks I have been drowning in guilt and shame -- and like this video says, I see my sin as "too big." Nothing, no sin is greater than the precious Blood of Jesus and His atoning Death. No sin is greater than God's grace. My fight for my life right now is to grasp the truths that where sin abounds, grace abounds much more. His mercy is greater than my sin, my sin habit, my sin nature, and my deceitful heart. This message gave me hope. Thank you, Fr. Mark. My hope and prayer is that this Holy Week, my eyes will be taken off my mountain of sin and failure and will instead gaze upon the Savior Who suffered and died for me that Friday. When I doubt God loves me because of my falling into the same sin again, I need to see His love shown to me upon the Cross. This video has given me renewed hope that God has not abandoned me, that I am still His son, even if battered and smelling like the pig pen. The consequences of sin are very real and hard. I want to live for and live near Jesus.
Amen and amen thank you for sharing. I struggle with the same, but thank God for his blood that was shed for us to come to him in repentance, and the Holy Spirit, who lift us up that we may come to him and ask for true forgiveness.
Recall Jesus said: Behold, I make all things new. Let us trust in Him for He is good!
I LOVE God , I just love Him so much
>one downvote
Salty Devil. You have no power here.
I really needed this ive been struggling with a certain sin and I always feel like i disappointed God. I dont give into despair or anything but I just feel like I let him down thank you. I know that I have to keep fighting and focus on His goodness not my shortcomings. God Bless everyone❤
Amen!! God bless you too
What a beautiful depiction of TRUTH! So many of us remain in the state of sin because we judge ourselves by our finite ability, not taking into consideration the depth and purity of God's Love & Mercy. Thank you Father for the reminder of this gift of Mercy!!!
Thank you Father, I had fallen into great despair to the point where I even questioned why I am even wasting my time going to mass or if praying really works. Is time to rebuild, confession time
I thank God for Divine Mercy. Praise be Jesus! Thank you for the message!!
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me, a sinner
I Myself have given into Same Type of Temptation twice, I was involved in Sexual immorality where I became close with a Girl and Started to kiss And touch her, Happened Twice with two Different Girls, She literarily pulled me, I tried so hard to Fight But I gave in, When it Happened I couldn't Stop until she did,I hope God Could Forgive me, I'm so sorry, Please pray for me..
i will pray for you, 3 years later. please pray for me.
Wow amazing.. I pray for the forgiveness.. restoration.. I was soo lost but following this channel it making me realize haw mercyful God is.. I once ask is there any sin that God can’t forgive..?
There is No Sin greater than the blood of the Lamb of God
True! Along as you are open to the grace & mercy of God - there is no sin the Holy Spirit won't forgive - great or small.
Such an amazing video & message!
My family absolutely loves watching these videos every night after we pray the rosary together.
Thank you so much for the gift of this content! 🙏🏽

A Catholic Wife A Blessed Life I always get a suggestion to watch and every time it’s perfect. And we just finished praying the rosary when this video came up on my feed. Oh man God does not waste anytime showing his love for us.
@@mariadeleon7667 Same here! I am so grateful that they have this channel! This video was so powerful - I love when they talk about the hard parts of life and offer ways to fight against dispair.
A Catholic Wife A Blessed Life yes exactly, I already loved this channel with Fr. Mike but when I started to watch The Friars I fell in love with the messages.
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!! I WISH I COULD! I TRY!
@A Catholic Wife A Blessed Life: how did you started praying rosary as a family?
Thank You for your message on this topic. More people need to hear this. It keeps our moral compass in check. God Bless You Fr. Mark-Mary ❤️👼🙏
@Rolf Leseratz - This I can assure you. If you speak of scandals in the Church, don't leave Jesus b/c of Judas.
My favorite video on RUclips right now.
Mine too.
Thank you father, God bless
3:24 "There is only one God, and He is not the work of human hands." Powerful. Crush the idols to dust my brother!
Take off two weeks in the month and use it to seek the Lord with prayer and fasting and you will see His holy spirit comes to you then you will know the truth because while you are failing to conquer the sin is because your not implying work in your faith every day,( 1 Peter 5:8-9)( you are not putting down the sinful nature that raise to control your mind every day by having shot fasting everyday(2 Peter 3:17) as you know almost all the people are living after their sinfulnature flesh, but we suppose to be putting it down everyday and Jesus promised us that if we die on the cause of denying ourself everyday then we shall see Him in His kingdom, those who are living after the flesh can not make it over there galatians 5:19-21. If you love your life in this world you will lose it, but if you comes to the discipline of Holy spirit and denying your heart of its evil through fasting and prayer often with faith, then you will be working in the spirit and entering heaven will be so sure to you.
Yes the Lord is good. God’s Love is greater than all sin. God is helping me through this right now. Pray the Rosary. Come to The Altar is a good song to listen to.
such perfect timing!!! I fell today and felt awful for the rest of the day. It was a hopeful message fo rme, thank you!!
I needed this. Right now. Right here.
“ if you don’t like that, go ahead and hit the thumbs down” 😂😂
I think I committed a mortal sin, but I can't go to confession until saturday. I have made a perfect contrition and am very sorry for my sin. What should I do?
And what if the enemy tries to say “this sin is so small, it doesn’t hurt anybody, why does it matter?”
I feel this despair actually. I just dont know what to do sometimes. I've been back to confession many times. Our parish priest says that God's mercy is bigger than all our sins and this gives me some hope. It feels like a long hard road.
Please read the Diary of St Faustina. It will help.
@@jacquelineharrod6386 thanks so much for your reply. I'll give it a go and I'll pray for you too.
How are you feeling now a year later?
I feel so frustrated with my sin. I hate it so much
"Do not be surprised that you fall every day; do not give up, but stand your ground courageously. And assuredly the angel who guards you will honor your patience."
~St. John Climicus
Thanks I needed to hear this as a reminder of my own personal sin and the power of confession
God Bless
Yes perfect timing is right, I need to go to confession but am embarrassed to confess a sin that’s weighs heavy on my heart. You just confirmed for me that I need to go and confess. Thank you I will be at confession on Sunday.
Confess everything, do not be afraid. Remember, the angels always rejoice over 1 Repented sinner. You will be made slate clean on that day when you confess. May Christ be your light!!
Joseph thank you, I was not able to go today to confession but will go either next Sat or Sun.
@@mariadeleon7667 hey I saw you left this three years ago but just wanted to give you a gentle reminder to go to confession
Yes Priest/Friar I really do listen from time to time I just talk to Jesus and asking for forgiveness I everyday recite the three o'clock prayer for his Divine Mercy and I'll be just then okay and ready to go again with a shield of his strenght, and almighty power from preventing to sin again that much.🙏🙇🙏 amen and amen.
Thank you for letting the Holy Spirit use you in such a mighty way. What an amazing God we have!
Thank you Father Mark Mary for the clarity and difference between Judas and Peter because where I see myself as Judas. When in reality, I am actually PETER!!!! Bless you Father 🙏🏽
Just sinned & gave in to temptation again after 2 days trying not to sin
I've been there. Don't despair! Your sins will never be greater than His mercy! Go to confession, make changes, and movs on. Look up "Littlest Souls" blog on Wordpress.
Oh i feel you, it‘s a struggle sometimes. I try every day just to focus on the present day not to sin, otherwise it‘s overwhelming for me, if i think „try not to sin for the next week“.
We sin because we aren't willing to let go the pleasures that sin offers. We intend to give up on those and approach sins not as a Challenger but as someone who already knows that we have already won the battle . We have a up hand on the tempter himself but we rarely acknowledge.
Pray esp the Psalm 51 the moment u tend to fall in sinful ways... Get away from the mere circumstances ... Just pray and ask Father's help and He will be just there helping you.
God bless .. will pray for you
Peter wept bitterly.. yet no mention of Judas shedding a tear for his sin. ….pride seems to inhibit ones ability to suffer doesn't it. Victor Frankl said in his memoirs from Auschwitz upon observing the prisoners 'there was no need to be ashamed of tears, for tears bore witness that a man had the greatest of courage, the courage to suffer' ..I think he put it so profoundly as it was beautifully borne from experience. A man that has only sipped from the chalice of suffering would deny a person the humanity of their feelings, but someone who has imbibed deeply of its bitterness would say "be holy carry it"!
I needed to hear this
When Judas was weighed down by his guilt, I believe he didn't think he had a chance to reconcile with the man he helped kill. He didn't think his mistake could be fixed, that's why he killed himself. It was wrong, I know. But his faith didn't last him three days.
Three days, its all it takes.
Thank you!
Thank you brother
“Submit human failure to Divine Mercy”
can someone help me learn how to become Catholic from protestant?
You can simply go to church and ask the priest your intention to convert to Catholicism. He'll guide you. God bless.
Check the Coming Home Network! They're a ministry that helps people in their decision to become Catholic :) www.chnetwork.org
I have a question. I am personally in a situation right now where I am stationed at a military base where confession is very rarely ever offered, and I'm not permitted to leave. Is there official doctrine on if those of us who have committed mortal sin, repented, and yet cannot see a priest find full forgiveness with God. I know He understands my situation but I'm just curious as to what the official Church Doctrine is on this.
Ezekiel 18:24
“But if a righteous person turns from their righteousness and commits sin and does the same detestable things the wicked person does, will they live? None of the righteous things that person has done will be remembered. Because of the unfaithfulness they are guilty of and because of the sins they have committed, they will die.
Ezekiel 44:9
This is what the Sovereign LORD says:
No foreigner uncircumcised in heart and flesh is to enter my sanctuary, not even the foreigners who live among the Israelites.
Yes, even Judas could have been redeemed had he repented and sought reconciliation. Remember: the only unforgivable sin is believing the lie that your sin is unforgivable. Thank you, Father!
The only unforgivable sin is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, which the Church teaches is rejection of the Holy Spirit (for any reason) at the moment of our passing.
@@paulmiller3469 That is giving up hope; which is thinking there is no forgiveness of your sin; which is the sin against the Holy Spirit Who can lead us into repentance, but we give up hope.
@@tomwolf8721 Yes, that's it. God wants to forgive all our sins and trespassing more than we can ever be sorry for committing them!
@@paulmiller3469 Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is an Agent in Authority, who has the Authority of the Holy Spirit i.e the Leaders in Jerusalem, the High Priest actually prophesised by the Holy Spirit..... if that Agent works against the Holy Spirit and is teaching other men to do so..... by "WORD"..... is guilty of the Eternal Sin. They tasted the Eternal Gift and Rejected it completely. Not a rejction that is half hearted, but a full blown rejection. That is why a Word against the Son of Man was forgiven, as at that time the Son wasn't "tasted" by the rulers, but it was through the agency of the Holy Spirit.
@@nthdegree1269 That's not what the Church teaches, and the semantics you've chosen to use here are confusing. Blasphemy is an agent in authority? Doesn't seem to make any sense.
If Judas didn't go food with it I'm committing Sin Betraying The lord He Could Told the Jews I changed my mind I'm not doing it He may have been crucified himself for refusing But he would have went to purgatory Later gone to heaven . Cause you remember Jesus called him friend What was happening there Jesus loved him even to the very end.
Saint peter Was truly Repentant I'm sorry what he did. Judas Did not feel guilty he knew he did wrong But not as far as going to confession.
Thank you for the encouragement. Just a thought. I know Judas would have been forgiven if he returned to the Lord, but there's an additional dimension to Judas' predicament: he gave Jesus up to be murdered. In his mind, the Lord wouldn´t be there anymore to forgive him, as nobody expected him to rise from the dead. If even Peter disbelieved Mary Magdalene at first, how could the traitor even imagine? To him, all hope was lost. This also reminds us, first, that we can´t lose faith, even when the odds seem unsurmountably against us, and second, that our time to repent is limited... God have mercy on our souls
Very well explained.thanks father
I don’t know the details of your theology, whether it be catholic, orthodox, whatever. I do know that you have spoken truth. I don’t know the validity of your ministry. I do know you have helped comfort me. Like so many others I watched this from a place of guilt. To help me sleep, after my iniquities. But your words turned me back towards God; our Lord Jesus, and that he who began a good work in me will surely finish it. I do not know the validity of your ministry, but I do remember a verse, that even if a person hears the truth from someone with selfish desires it is still a boon. I’m not sayin you are fraudulent or incomplete in your knowledge of scripture. I am saying thank you regardless.
perfect timing for me as well
I am so thankful for you and your words, they give me hope.
If I could give this video a love I would. I needed this. Thank you 🙏
Thank you Fr. Mark-Mary! I needed to hear this today.
Is there a secular Franciscan order of the renewal ? Or is the renewal only for friars? Basically I want to be like you guys but I am married and have a kid.
I don't think, at least some of us, are making an idol out of our sin. We read passages of scripture like Hebrews 6 and Hebrews 10, just to name a few, which seem to indicate that God will not forgive us, will no longer grant us repentance....then we are condemned for falling into despair??? The 🤯😱😳😲
Wow, I am still searching about discernment of spirits and this video pops up.
I love when our brothers post!!!💖💕💖💗💖💕💖💗💖
IF you fall into sin then you are a child of the devil. 1 John 3: 8.
IF you have been born again you cannot sin ever again. 1 John 3: 9.
IF you have been born again you have CEASED from sin. 1 peter 4: 1.
John 3: 1- 8. John 1: 12- 13. 1 john 3: 9.
May THE creator Yahweh give you understanding in these salvation scriptures.
Heb 12: 14
Bless you
If Judas did not commit suicide I wonder if the Lord will forgive him for what he did Told the Lord I'm sorry.
Thank you Father! Any advice for the scrupulous who are constantly worried or doubt that they are sinning?
Here's something: Don't be so hard on yourself. When you're not sure of an act or situation is sinful, Keep this in mind - WWJD - What would Jesus Do?
Diana Hayden thank you
Im sitting here this morning feeling low because i felt i had only just started the path of relising god. But then i failed and sinned only a day later. This has helped me to keep going and to put myself in gods hands
So very right Fr. I have felt this way so many times great message thank you & God Bless
Thank you. - November 1st 2020 (Note: yes I failed instantly because of a pop up ad that triggered everything)
153 fish = the amount of hailmarys in the rosary............coincedince?
I think so. I heard somewhere that 153 was the number of country's that existed at that time.
Dazben peter beautiful
Val Ward also beautiful
Thank you Fr. Mark Mary, this is so accurate and true!
I was hoping to see a video like this.
How many other prodigal sons out there?
Nothing to be proud of but its good to be home!
Another great video. TY Fr. Mark!
You are not reminded of the ugliness of your sin, but the goodness of our God.
Thank You.
Holy Spirit convicts us, satan condemns us.
thanks. I blew it today and needed some encouragement
The Holy Spirit convicts us of our sin. God knows our heart. Search me o Lord ! Give me a contrite heart🙏🏽
Amen
Good video, thanks father.
Thank you I needed this !
Listening to Fr. Mike ... be back soon... 🤣
These videos are tremendous!
Thank you so much calming presence that I need
I almost gave in for a minute there, too!! Perfect timing
Just sinned
I hope he will forgive me
"Just look at the world" Nice
Thank you for your videos. This one and many of your others are spot on at times that I need to hear God’s messages to me.
May God continue to bless you and your ministry.
Saw the notification for this...let's say right on time
Thank you I need this
I sincerely ask for what you said is “proof of the devil” and not just human nature/warped beliefs/mental issues etc. I want to understand, and proof is needed to help me understand.
Proof is in all the sin out there ,
So whenever we sin it's always "the devil made me do it"? None of the sins committed by man - from stealing candy to genocide - throughout history is just because human beings chose to commit them? Again, just trying to understand.
Right humans have the free will to commit sin if he knows it’s wrong to do so, but decides to do it anyway. Sin has its consequences spiritually and even physically just one reason why God wrote the Ten Commandments but mainly because God Loves his children he doesn’t want them to hurt themselves or get harmed.
You crack me up... 🤣🤣🤣
Go to you immediately?
Wish we had priests in our parishes that could talk to us like this. Thank you.
We are very blessed to have the Friars in our Parish here in Ireland. 💚
I really needed to hear this today.Thank you
Pray for those who downvoted
Thank you
Thank you so much a lot!!! This was needed.
Thank you
If we confess our mortal sin at home and repent will I be forgiven by god?
If you make an act of perfect contrition, yes.
Thank you Father! 🌹♥️🌹
As a child I believed that the Bible was the word of God and that Jesus was my savior .In 1988 I was drinking a fifth of alcohol a day . I knew that there was more to life than I realized but I didn't know what it was . I had a wonderful girlfriend , we raced motorcycles , we went to bluegrass festivals and did whatever we wanted to do . I realized that I had everything the world said was happiness but I felt something important was missing and I didn't know what it was. I tried scientology , all kinds of yoga, martial arts and various other disciplines but nothing satisfied me . One Sunday morning I came home drunk in a taxicab and waiting outside of my house was a man who was giving my roommate a ride to church. I had gone to alcoholics anonymous for six months and they helped me a lot but I had gone back to drinking .He invited me to sit in his car and talk. He asked me if I wanted a bible study. I said I would love to have a bible study . He came on Monday nights the only night of the week that I didn't drink. It was a 12 week bible study that went from Genesis to Revelation. He showed me in the book of Acts ( Acts 2:38 ) where it said repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sin and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost . I said I'd never seen that in the bible and I wanted to get baptized in Jesus' name and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. I got baptized in Jesus' name and prayed for two months to get the Holy Ghost. The night that I got the Holy Ghost I was praying and I started to talk in tongues , I felt wonderful and GOD delivered me from the spirit of alcohol . I have never wanted to drink since then and I praise GOD for that.
. The man who gave me the twelve week bible study taught me a ' GODHEAD ' bible study twice but i didn't understand the oneness of God or the trinity . I was reading the bible one day and read Ephesians 4 : 5-6 that i had previously highlighted in my bible . God gave me the revelation of oneness . ' ONE LORD , ONE FAITH , ONE BAPTISM , ONE GOD AND FATHER OF ALL , WHO IS ABOVE ALL , AND THROUGH ALL ,AND IN YOU ALL !
JOHN 3:16 IS JUST ONE VERSE : YOU NEED TO READ ALL OF CHAPTER THREE TO UNDERSTAND JESUS' PLAN OF SALVATION !
I was a believer from childhood but I wasn't saved .
THANK YOU FOR READING THIS !
Brother...,Judas betrayed JESUS resulting in HIS arrest, trial & death. Peter's sin & betrayal was to abandon JESUS in HIS time of greatest need. There is a great difference in the two betrayals. This dawned on me one day as the two betrayals were being discussed at church. Peter's sin did not result in the death of CHRIST(that day). JESUS was terribly disappointed in Peter, reconciling HIS disappointment in Peter on the beach after the RESURRECTION, Peter being terribly disappointed that JESUS had ask him 3 times about his love. I'm sure the intensity of the feeling Peter experienced on the beach compared to the feeling CHRIST experienced the night of his arrest. As JESUS said concerning Peter....satan was going to sift him like wheat . Concerning Judas HE said it would have been better for him not to have been born. I see a great difference in the 2 sins & results there of. This being said, we know that sin(whatever the nature) is what placed our GREAT & GLORIOUS LORD & SAVIOR on the cross in the first place. I don't know Brother, but the 2 sins have always been compared in the same context over the years. Maybe I missed something. Somehow to me there seems to be a great difference in the 2 sins.
