I am from India. I am a candidate to priesthood. Thank you Sister for talking about the priests, who dedicate their whole life for the Lord and the people as well. I appreciate you for sharing their Celibate Life. God bless you and bless us all.
May Mary guide you in your priesthood....I'll say a prayer for you.
@@quiricomazarin476 Mary is not omnipresent and the RCC MARY is not even real...
@@rochelleperry2242 Lol hey everybody it's an uneducated, ignorant, brainwashed heretic protestant with their satanic lies.
@@rochelleperry2242 Did you take your med yet?
@@rochelleperry2242bye Satan
Hello! I am a recent catholic convert with a protestant family. I have never known how to defend my faith until I stumbled into your channel, you haven't just help me have more faith in the catholic church, but you also helped me defend my religion, I just want to thank you, God bless you
This is the number one thing people tell me that they don’t understand about the Catholic Church. I always let them know that priests take this upon themselves, no one is forcing it on them. 😂
Upon growing up, I just realized how a married men are so busy with their own children physical needs that they often forgot their own spirituality and the spirituality of their own children too.
Celibate priests makes so much sense to me since his time will be 100% full on the Lord and on the Church.
A celibate priests doesn't need to worry about his own children's future or work harder to earn more money.
His sexual thoughts about making love on a woman will be removed.
And his eyes will be more focused on the Eucharist.
@@connordrake5713 Paul said that a preacher should be the husband of one wife and said that he should be in control of his children. So it looks like a man can be married, have sex with his wife, produce children, and be focused on Godly thoughts.
@@Musicienne-DAB1995that wasn’t said for preachers. It was said for Elders. Elders can be married with kids, yes.
@@piper_sss Elders preach. And the same did apply for preachers.
Put batteries in your smoke alarm
Your channel has changed my life. Thank you so much
I loved the explanation of this video
hey Lizzie, still enjoying your videos, have a nice day.
Hey Lizzie! I love the icons that you have in the back ground, by any chance have you thought about selling something similar to the ones you have?
Our little girl has grown up. 😃 😊 😀 😄
She's still our little girl, though, 😃 😊 😀
Unless you’re an Ordinariate Catholic Priest. They were formally Episcopalians that could marry and then went under Rome in 2013.
Oh! You missed this Bible verse Lizzie..
King James Bible
For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
Clerical celibacy is a church law, not a dogma of faith. The Eastern churches have always allowed priests to marry, if the pope woke up tomorrow and also allowed Catholic priests, there would be nothing strange or contrary to doctrine.
Glad to hear it. And someone else in this comments' section has said that Roman Catholic priests did marry up until the 12th century.
There actually are Catholic priest that are married. The “anglican ordinariate” established in 2012 where those Anglican priest “already married” are allowed to stay married when they come into communion with Rome. This is allowed for in the Latin Rite under the bishop of Rome.
Nice pastel colours
Hello! I’m seeking for help. I’m spending this years holy week in DC! Anyone knows a good parish that I could attend?? Thanks!!
I can suggest the basilica of national shrine of the immaculate conception (Michigan Ave). The Good Friday service is very moving
@@estelita1111 thank you so much 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Well, as an Orthodox priest, everything you described happens for us Orthodox. I host folks all the time, even late. Folks hang out in our house.
The priests kids...hang out with other kids. No offense, I just think you need to experience hanging out with more Orthodox priest families, lol.
Orthodox priests and their matushka are an amazing example of Christian family
The Orthodox church does not have the daily bread given at Catholic Mass every day.
@@Tom-od3eb I'm not sure if this is an uninformed view or an intentional falsehood. Lots of Catholic Churches do not have daily mass. And in many places Orthodox Churches offer daily services. Certainly in Orthodox monasteries it is the tradition and normal for to have Daily Liturgy and Eucharist. So, you are incorrect on two counts my friend.
My Byzantine priest is married, and although I love the presbytera and his children are adorable, I would have preferred that he wasn’t married because of the need to keep his life very private to protect his family and therefore he is not as available for his parishioners as the priests in the Roman Catholic Church, which I used to go to. I long for this connection with our priests as before I got into this rite. They used to be like my brother and my best friend.😢
Married Byzantine priests do happen, but a lot are not married. Like Roman Catholic priests, not all priests are the same. Being unmarried and celibate doesn't automatically make the priest approachable or sociable. You might end up with a priest even more closed off and introverted than your married Byzantine priest.
Being married or unmarried doesn't necessarily help all this. Just my limited experience though.
@@matuskaandme5408 When i was in the Roman Catholic rite, I used to go to prayer meetings in this priest’s house. We would gather some 10 or 15 of us to pray the rosary or the chapelet. Another friend priest of mine started a live-in community outside of the city. They would offer retreats throughout the year with mass and adoration, whereas we would go and stay in individual small cabins in the woods, and have a communal dinner in the dinner hall after the retreat. It was very enriching, energizing and very prayerful and solemn. With this priest, he organizes some day trips to shrines but it’s definitely not the same atmosphere. I still prefer this rite in many ways. I feel it is closer to the Church Christ has instituted.
Loads of men who preach in church are married. It does not stop them from serving their community. In fact, their wives are often very useful in helping these men serve their community. Where do you get this "need" for a celibate priesthood from, given that Paul said a elder should be the husband of one wife?
New subscriber, im entering RCIA in September
The priests are married to the Church . I thank God for the sacrifice of our celibate priests. ❤️🙏🏽
Priests used to marry, Roman Catholic church banned it in 1139. How are priests supposed to counsel people on families, marriage, and life problems when they don’t experience it themselves?
How can Shepherds attend the Flock if their interests are divided? I was watching this Anglican "Priest" on RUclips who was married, and the first thing he brought up was his wife and family. Married Pastors main concerns are the wife and family, and not the flock. Check out 1 Corinthians 7:32-34: "I want you to be free from anxieties. The unmarried man is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to please the Lord; but the married man is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please his wife, and his interests are divided. And the unmarried woman or girl is anxious about the affairs of the Lord, how to be holy in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about worldly affairs, how to please her husband."
They have their familial experience and the teaching of the Church. Many priests also consult with couples and read books as well.
Apostle Paul was *not* married and actually advised that staying single was better to serve the LORD, yet he gave sound marital advice. 🙏✝️💙
@@MagdalenaIsaiah431 I guess 1,100 years of priests being married was bad then. I think the church should stick to the original path and not change. Ever wonder why the priest SA scandal was so big in the RC church? Priests not married might be a small factor. 🤷🏻♂️
@@MagdalenaIsaiah431 the Bible doesn’t specify if he ever got married after. We only know he wasn’t married at the time.
Since the Catholic Church have Mass every day. The Catholic Church gives the daily bread everyday like in the Our Father Prayer.
Tom, as I pointed out above, this is not true nor accurate. The Orthodox Church has the same practice you claim only Catholics have. And not all Catholic Churches offer daily Mass.
How can I go vegan
From the NRSV-CE (Official Catholic Edition of the Bible) - 1 Corinthians 9:5 - "5 Do we not have the right to be accompanied by a believing wife,[a] as do the other apostles and the brothers of the Lord and Cephas?"
Peter was married.
And forbidding marriage is against Scripture anyway - 1 Timothy 4:1-5 (also from NRSV-CE, Official Catholic Edition - CAPS are my emphasis for sake of readability):
"Now the Spirit expressly says that in later[a] times some will renounce the faith by paying attention to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, 2 through the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared with a hot iron. 3 THEY FORBID MARRIAGE and demand abstinence from foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 4 For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, provided it is received with thanksgiving; 5 for it is sanctified by God’s word and by prayer."
Should I believe the Catholic church's gaslighting on these issues or plain Scripture? Plain Scripture, every time.
St. Peter was married, st. Phillip was married with children (two daughters). The Bible tells us that a bishop has to have only one wife. A man can marry and then become a priest. This is how it was in the beginning and it still is in the Orthodox Church which keeps the faith of the early Christians.
Can you make a video why a single woman cannot be a priest
Saint Paul, if everyone was unmarried we couldn't fill the earth and subdue it, we couldn't spread the gospel, we couldn't create future Priests and Nuns, clearly an opinion put out there, but allowed by God.
Even JESUS said there are some men who are *born* Eunuchs. It's obviously not for everyone but those uniquely called to it like The great writer of most of The New Testament books🙏✝️💙
Catholicism is pagan. Follow the One true God and his only begotten son whom he sent . Catholics pray to mary which is pagan.
Nop, not pagan
@@fernandoriano5318 do you not have idols of people? Pagan.
@@DaddyAZTL nop, do You have idols?
@@fernandoriano5318 you pray to Mary and have statues aka idols
@@DaddyAZTL what is an Idol according to scripture?
Are they not supposed to be called 'Elders' instead of priests?
You need to go to the Greek here. Elder is just a translation.
@@tbw980371 Doesn't matter. Elders were required to be faithful to their wives and raise obedient children.
Yep. And it's clear that an elder can, and probably should, be married. And have children, which obviously requires having sex with said wife.
@@Musicienne-DAB1995 I think the original Greek and it’s original context is very important and does matter.
@@tbw980371 Again, an elder is required to be faithful to his wife. So there's no requirement for celibacy. That's in the Greek as well, which is why it was translated that way into English.
