- Matt Fradd has a new book on the Rosary! Check it out! bit.ly/2qFmrhz
Matt announces his new book and shares insightful quotes from two saints (and a bishop) on the Rosary-St. Josemaria Escriva, Bishop Hugh Doyle, and St. Louis de Montfort-and talks about how these quotes highlight the Rosary’s spiritual qualities:
“Say the holy Rosary. Blessed be that monotony of Hail Mary’s which purifies the monotony of your sins.” -St. Josemaria Escriva
“No one can live continually in sin and continue to say the Rosary. Either he will give up sin or he will give up the holy Rosary.”-Bishop Hugh Doyle
“The Rosary is said not with lips alone, muttering Hail Mary’s after the other. That is the way over pious old men and women rattle them off. For a Christian, vocal prayer must spring from the heart, so that while the Rosary is said the mind can enter into contemplation of each one of the mysteries.” -St. Josemaria Escriva
“Satan fears Mary not only more than angels and men, but more than God himself. This does not mean that the anger, hatred, and power of God are not infinitely greater than the Blessed Virgin’s, since her attributes are limited. It simply means that Satan, being so proud, suffers infinitely more in being vanquished and punished by a lowly and humble servant of God; for her humility humiliates him more than the power of God. ” -St. Louis de Montfort
“You always leave the Rosary for later, and you end up not saying it at all because you are sleepy. If there is no other time, say it in the street where nobody else will notice it. It will moreover help you have the presence of God.” -St. Louis de Montfort

A Pocket Guide to the Rosary helps Catholics deepen their prayer life and improve their ability to pray what St. Padre Pio called “the weapon of our times”-the Rosary.
Drawing from the writings of the saints, the Bible, and Catholic tradition, Matt Fradd has produced a book that every Catholic should read.

I had a nightmare with a demon who didn't let me out from the lift. So in my dream, I started to pray the Rosary (yes, I was praying Rosary in my dream) when I reached the 3rd decades, the demon begged me to stop praying the Rosary coz she couldn't bear the Rosary. The Rosary prayer hit her head so hard. After that I came out from the lift in my dream and I woke up.
The Rosary is the most solid way for us, the weak sinners of the modern world. When in doubt about faith, go for the Rosary, if you fell, go for the Rosary, if everything seems falling apart, do not quit the Rosary. Its an excelent way of persevering.
very nice thought
JESUS IS THE WAY
What is wrong with you people you go to God in the name of Jesus, you don’t repeat dead vain repetition!! That is fake prayer. You are supposed to pour out your heart to God! Please don’t fall for man made unbiblical false religion from Satan...
Amen!
JesusIsTheLordofGlory the most wrong idea is to not accept the Mary, Jesus is dying on cross and saying to John,His pupil this is your Mother, and to Her this is your child, why do you think He said that, bc He knew His Mother will be sad when He will die and He wants to Her to have treat another Man as Her child? All teachings of Jesus were directed to His pupils, we are all His pupils, so His Mother is also OUR Mother, I come from Poland, the country where Mary the Virgin was estsblished as Queen of Poland, we also have in Częstochowa city Her painting, which caused a lot of miracles, there is thoundsands of proofs of Mary’s doing those things but people are understanding them wrongly, Mary and the Saints are in Heaven, we are praying for them not as to God, but there are with God, and they were chosen but God, there are the examples of people who fully gave themselves to God, he ask for their help bc they are sending our prayers to Him, also a lot of people are denying of Saints but you have them mentioned also in the Bible, and Mary is the the one who is crushing the snake’s head, I recommend for you to read the diaries of Saint Faustyna Kowalska, to get some truth, I know there are a lot of Evangelists who are like Pharisees for me, they knew each verse in the Bible, the Son of God came to them, but they killed Him, isn’t it the same situation? People are interpreting some verses by themselves and then are thinking they know everything, as those Pharisees, who were acusing Jesus of being sinner who was healing people on Sabbath. What I can say about the Rosary, it is the greatest weapon against satan, he is scared of it, who is praying a lot, knows about it, when I stop praying Rosary immidiately I can sense how devil is working more and more, Rosary is very helpful, it is not only prayer to Mary but also God Himself, it is telling the most important events from the Bible, and also it was created by Saint Dominic who saw Mary and she told Him to create this prayer, same with the Chaplet of Divine Mercy, Jesus showed Himself to Faustina and told Her the prayer.
For a long time I struggled to pray the rosary because to me it was bland and hard to focus and took too long. I struggled for a long time to truly accept certain teachings about Mary and struggled even more because of what seemed to be an unhealthy obsession with her by many Catholics. I was very reluctant for a long time.
Recently, I have begun praying a Rosary daily (mostly), and am going through Marian Consecration using 33 Days to Morning Glory, while also reading a book called Fatima for Today. The graces our Mother has flooded my soul with cannot be overstated. I went through a long period of dryness in my faith and now, with growing love for and devotion to our Lady, my faith is stronger than it’s been in a long time. Whatever control Satan had over my reluctance to open myself to her, has been crushed.
I did the consecration to Jesus through Mary (morning glory) in 2014. You won't regret doing it.
Catholic wording has always confused me lol. I know you guys don’t worship Mary but sometimes y’all word stuff about her awkwardly
Thank you so much for this… The rosary is so important! Especially praying it correctly.
I would add, "The holy rosary is the weapon for these times." St. Padre Pio.
0:36 - - "Blessed be that monotony of Hail Mary’s which purifies the monotony of your sins.” - St. Josemaria Escriva
Thanks for sharing - - that's a great way to think about it - - our sins and habits ARE monotonous.
Yes, SO GLAD I watched this and that quote...PERFECT answer for protestants & cynical Catholics. I'd know- I used to not get it myself
@@Freedomrock1920 when we say a Hail Mary we confess that Jesus came to the world in the flesh! There is power in these words, repeting the words spoken to Mary by the Angel, while meditating in Jesus' life is more powerful than the atomic bomb! Search miracle of hiroshima!
Even in times when I don't want to pray, I will still pray the Rosary....even if i pray it only mechanically. And as I get into it, the words just become meaningful and the mysteries become real.
I have started to feel the presence of God and I'd say it's because of my use of the Rosary. Also the rosary I feel helps me have better days.
If you ever try praying it while driving, you realize the drivers around are less infuriating 🤣
@@lolafiiona7014 I pray it alot while driving. It's good quiet time 😊
Louis de'Montfort is by far my favorite saint second to Our Lady. His works on the Most Holy Rosary have changed my prayer life and my devotion to the Rosary. Hail, Mary, Full of Grace!
Amen, brother. My family and I pray the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary daily! Ave Maria!
Wonderful messages sir 🙌
A world at PRAYER, is a world at PEACE!
The ROSARY is spiritual medicine and a powerful weapon.
Remember;
""If you want peace in your heart, in your home, in your country, essemble together every day and every night and say the Rosary."" [ Blessed St. Pope Pius X ]
Holding the ROSARY beads is like holding Your Heavenly Father, Son and blessed Mother's hand with humble and grateful heart.
Love from Indonesia 🇲🇨💓🇲🇨
the holy rosary is so powerful...
Thanks Matt. It's sad that catholics have forgotten how important the Rosary is 🕇🌹❤
Where in the Bible does it say to rather pray to dead people like Mary than to God?
@@Maarten927 ruclips.net/video/xg2OQ_iPTv8/видео.html
I hope you don't neglect and see this video...and accept the truth that only through Mary and her only..Jesus came and will come again into our hearts. God bless.
@@Maarten927 by praying the holy rosary, we catholics pray through divine intersession through the mother of the lord. Doesent it make sense to you that one could pray to the mother of the Lord? The one who knew Jesus better than anyone else. The one who felt his pain as she saw him on the cross? The one holy vessel which housed the Lord Jesus Christ and bore him from the womb. Mary did not just have a motherly connection to the Lord, but a divine tether as she was divine, we pray to Mary because of her connection to the lord in spirit and divinity, a connection that is much stronger than ours that is why we send up our prayers through her for our sake.
@@Alisha-us3tt
"I hope you don't neglect and see this video...and accept the truth that only through Mary and her only..Jesus came and will come again into our hearts. God bless."
I watched it and no where in the video does it say to rather pray to Mary than to God and also the video does not show from the Bible that it's ok to rather pray to Mary than to God...
@@marcussfebruary9104
"by praying the holy rosary, we catholics pray through divine intersession through the mother of the lord. "
Where does Jesus teach to do that and where does it even say in the Bible that we are allowed to do that?
"Doesent it make sense to you that one could pray to the mother of the Lord? "
Jesus did not even view his mother as insanely significant as Catholics do... because look what he says in the Bible:
Matthew 12:46While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. 47Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.”
48He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” 49Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 50For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
"The one who knew Jesus better than anyone else. "
How do you know that? No where in the Bible does it say that his mother knew him better than anyone else...
"The one who felt his pain as she saw him on the cross? "
So did his disciples so so what? Are you going to start praying to Jesus's disciples rather than to God as well, because of them seeing Him on the cross?
"The one holy vessel which housed the Lord Jesus Christ and bore him from the womb. "
God could have chosen another women if He wanted to and if He did then you would have probably prayed to that women as well?
"Mary did not just have a motherly connection to the Lord, but a divine tether as she was divine, "
She is not divine she is a human and a sinner like you and me... where in the Bible does it say that she never sinned or that she is divine? the Bible says that all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God...
"we pray to Mary because of her connection to the lord in spirit and divinity, a connection that is much stronger than ours that is why we send up our prayers through her for our sake."
It's just plane satanic to pray to a dead women rather than to God... Jesus is the mediator between God and men not Mary...
1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,
THANK YOU MATT FRADD FOR THIS LITTLE VIDEO!!! God knew I needed to hear this. God bless you and your team 🙏🏼
The Rosary is indeed a power communication with the divine. Every word of what you said is true!
I picked up a daily walk with the rosary about a year ago, through the daily rosary I overcame a 20 year old habitual sin. So powerful !!
Hello, the rosary is actually the most powerful form of mental and contemplative prayer. God bless :)
Thank you, so grateful for you sharing these inspired insights on the Holy Rosary with us, so encouraging. Our Holy Mother is a tremendous allie in the spiritual battle we are in, keeping her close is a great consolation, knowing this brings a deep sense of peace.
Thank you so much. To you and everyone who's at Ascension Presents! And thank you God + Mary for fighting with + for us!
I needed this because I say the rosary every night when I go to bed and I want to say it earlier and this helps me as to when...thank you 😇
Wonderful, Matt! Thank you for this! Thank you for the truth! Devotion to Our Lady is a good sign of holiness and that you are teaching the truth!
I was christained catherlic don't know why my family did not go church much. I got my calling later. Some how l started praying the rosary. Never felt loving graces so beautiful. Mary is our Mother with the moon under her feet.
So moving brought
Somewhere I read: the day when you relax and do not think you are in a spiritual battle because things are going well in your life, that is the day you lose the battle. This is how important praying is. Pray every day of your life, because we are battling spirits in high places and realms we do not see, our enemy is invisible but is existent nevertheless and the battle never ends. So never put down your weapon of prayer in your life. Pray for your family and those in trouble, make prayer part of everyday life, for we could not live by bread alone. It has taken me 40+years of my life to realize that but I did and that made me stronger. When the enemy comes like a flood pray in floods too. Never accept the pit, do not let your soul grow weary, be joyful even when you do not see a solution to your problem, God knows what he is doing, he is with you every step of the day. Trust me I speak from own experience not from theological doctrine of some church. Believe in the Lord with all your heart and you will always come up on top in the end, it is his strength that preserves you not yours. So DO NOT cease praying! I beg you! Take my advice and give praying a chance. Do it for a while and I swear your life will get much better in the long run even if temporarily it may not seem so. God is spirit and he is all around you, he knows you better than you know yourself and he will never fail you. Blessings to you who are reading this!
Thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing. I’m 58 years old, and I don’t think I would have made it this far in life if it wasn’t for the Rosary 📿
Praise God Amen👏
Declaration of War, yes.
Pray the rosary from our hearts.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Amen
The rosary keeps away demons and keeps you safe.
The Chaplet of The Gospels, by meditating on specific points in Jesus Christ; applying them to ourselves in repentance and grace filled Godly living is a wonderful prayer.
The humility of Mary IS the power of God.
This was Awesome Matt- Thank you.
Excellent! Thanks for sharing! The final quote really hits home!
'The Contemplative Rosary' by Dan Burke and Conni Rossini, teaches a good way to learn to meditate on the mysteries while praying the Rosary. And of course, read 'The Secret of the Rosary' by St. Louis de Montfort, and 'Champions of the Rosary' by Fr. Donald Calloway.
Saint Padre Pio said one of the things we should do to make sure we go to heaven is pray the rosary everyday.
Daily Rosary for Life, am I right?
the full 3 mysterys!
@@dazbenpeter8311 Amen.
Lovely. Thank you #askmattfrad i have started praying it daily. I may not pray it perfect but the mother will obtain for me the grace to say it properly. She is always there to bless me in my tough and good times.
Hang in there. The Blessed Mother ALWAYS keeps Her Fifteen Promises.
Thank you John. May the Lord always bless you the intercession of our blessed mother❤
nice video to watch.. i like the message. Thanks!
The Rosary is praying the Gospel. You say the Lord's prayer, the Hail Mary is entirely taken from scripture, and you meditate on the mysteries of the life of Jesus from the Gospel.
Simple prayer, yet complet and so deep it brings us closer to God and to the understanding of His word.
Book and verse?
@@matufamenulis8527 Hello Matufa...if you are asking where in scripture is the Hail Mary derived from, it is Luke 1:28 and Luke 1:42 ... hope this helps. God bless!
Mike McGuire please show me where the Bible (not the uninspired apocrypha) says that Mary is “full of grace” she called Jesus her savior!! Look it up!
@@Scullans ..In Luke 1:28 the Angel Gabriel greets Mary with the words .."Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women."
Mary knew that Jesus was her savior. She needed a savior as all human beings do. However, due to her special mission, to give birth to the Son of God, she needed to be absolutely pure. Therefore we believe, that God, who is outside of time, preserved Mary from original sin in light of Christ's saving work on the Cross. Jesus saved her.
Since you mentioned the "Apocrypha", I would like to address that as well.....
Jesus and the apostles used the Septuagint, the accepted version of the Bible of that time which included the seven books that Protestants refer to as the Apocrypha.
After Christ's death and resurrection, approx A.D. 90, a group of Jewish leaders met, and in their rejection of Christianity decided that books such as the Gospels and these seven deuterocanonical books (so-called apocrypha), were to be excluded from their Canon of Scripture.
The early Church did not add these seven books as is purported. They merely affirmed use of the Septuagint, the Bible that the apostles used, and rejected the decision of this rabbinical council.
Approx. 1500 years later the Protestants decided to remove these seven books.
God bless you in your search for the truth.
My RCIA director said that her mother told her that if she prayed the Rosary while falling asleep, Mary would come and finish her prayer for her if she dozed off in the middle.
The Blessed Mother asked us to pray the rosary everyday for world peace. Out of obedience we should do it. If we don’t then we can blame ourselves for all the wars and terrible things in the world.
Very nice. Thank you
Right,correct,very good.
God bless
Excellent video. I learned so much 💖
Catholic Priests should preach more about the Rosary during Mass, it will help more Catholics to be reminded to pray the Rosary and to overcome sin. The more people that will pray the Rosary the more peace there will be in the world.
PrayTheRosaryForWorldPeace i think satin attacks people who promote the rosary. He makes them suffer in silence and then nobody believes them. A mizerable reality. Theres a guy who promotes it on youtube. I think his name is gabbi after hours or something like this. Anyways he pushes it heavy. And in listening to one of his talks he mentions how theres a feeling of somebody trying to choke him that comes over him. Make no mistake. These forces are real and the rosary is so highly attacked because it is forceful and powerful. If you want to increase its strength. Try out the 5 first saturdays. Preferably starting in january. It makes sense because in spiritual warfare. The virgins heart becomes affected by the battle. So do that and enjoy all of the gains and victories that you will recieve. Remember the meditations. And if you can, read the book “ the secret of the rosary” by louis demontfort. Its a gem. Also rest your rosary on the bible. And have it properly blessed by a catholic priest. Usually i place it somewhere in psalms. Because it seems to have derived from the 150 psalms. Enjoy.
the rosary is so nice 🥰
I feel naked without my rosary beads in my left pocket...
Same always on me left pocket
I always keep my rosary in my right pocket to symbolize the right hand of God.🙏✝️💕🌸
@@jayveeaurea9091 I keep mine on the left as a sheathed sword would be kept.

A Devout Mystery of the Holy Rosary A Day Keeps the devil Away from Actually Committing a Mortal Sin...
Hey Matt, long time listener. I love hearing a fellow Aussie on RUclips and I also love your channel. I have to say it’s a freak out seeing you without a beard 😂. Keep on rocking.
There is also a lack of instruction about how to pray the rosary. I just learned to reflect the mysteries,.... after all these years of doing the prayers alone!
Yes you are right, just only saying Our Father and Hail Mary prayer is not much, you have to think about mysteries, also in context with your life, each mystery to think about certain things in our life we want to change or speaking to God while praying.
Matt Fradd we miss ya
So good. Thank you .
God bless you.
Quietly, I feel a lot of confidence in that there is no way someone who is praying the Rosary every day will be damned. I'm rarely confident about anything - there is much scrupulosity I'm dealing with,, so I am laxed, but I'm pretty sure that there will be people in Heaven who would be damned but will be there because they prayed the Rosary or someone else prayed the Rosary for them and then Our Blessed Mother stepped in, maybe at the very moment of death.
You are a good missionary for the rosary, a spiritual child of the Mother of God. You could also speak about Lepanto and the importance of the rosary in the dominican order.
Thanks for the reply, it's refreshing to find someone in the comment section with some class and brains!
the rosary has been with the only Universal christian church for a long time a beautiful and devout prayer
Thanks. According to Saint Padre Pio and a lot of our Popes and Saints, the Holy Rosary of The Blessed Virgin Mary is THE BEST WEAPON WE HAVE AGAINST EVIL.
According to the BIBLE: Jesus is a BETTER ONE. In fact, the ONLY ONE. Just a thought...
Eli Flores The Rosary is a prayer that is centered on Jesus, from his Incarnation to his ministry on earth to his passion, death, resurrection, and ascension. And of course the Holy Spirit AND God the Father are always present in Jesus. All Marian devotion, just like the Blessed Virgin herself, glorifies the Trinity. Mary's assumption and coronation honor her humility, purity, and her special place in salvation history.
As with much of our faith, there are more connections than there are stand-alone separations. Marina devotion is not separate from other prayers. Mary brings us to her son Jesus.
I have no doubt you believe in what you stated.
However, I must ask; How do you know if it’s TRUTH?
Are your beliefs derived from the Bible, or from men?
The answer is “men”. It is NOT found in Holy Scripture.
Marian devotion is a human construct, catholic mysticism.
Beginning in the 5th century then gaining acceptance, in the
year 1090 the rosary is introduced. Devotion and glorification
follows with in the mid 1200’s
Saint Bonaventure: "No one enters Heaven unless by Mary”
Then officially established with a “papal bull” by Pope Pius V
with the approbation of the new office of the Blessed Virgin
in March 1571
And, the adoration which you practice, comes in the 1800’s
from the writings of Saint Alphonsus Liguori.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rosary is a series of 10 prayers. There are five of
the tens, making 50 prayers and there are five prayers
in between. The 50 are to Mary, the five are to God.
For every time you pray once to God the Father,
you pray 10 times to Mary, 5 to God, 50 to Mary... 50!!!
Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us
sinners now and at the hour of our death Amen.
How, exactly, is the rosary “Jesus centered”?????????
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There millions all over the world who worship Mary.
Everywhere are images, pictures, representations of Mary.
Millions upon millions of people every day pray to her.
They pray to her to save them. They pray to her to protect
them. They pray to her to help them, to comfort them, to
rescue them, to bring them to heaven, and she has never
heard one of those prayers. Ever.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Psalm 116
I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice and my
pleas for mercy. Because He inclined His ear to me,
therefore I will call on Him as long as I live.
Psalm 117
Forever Praise the Lord, all nations! Extol Him, all peoples!
For great is His steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness
of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord!
1 Timothy 2:5
“There is one God, and one Mediator also between God and
men, the man Christ Jesus.”
John 14:13, “‘Whatever you ask,’ Jesus said, ‘in My name
that will I do that the Father may be glorified in the Son.’“ If
you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is one Mediator and it is the man, Christ Jesus. Not
angels, not saints, and not Mary. All our burdens, all our
prayers, all our requests go directly to God through our
relationship with Jesus Christ.
What you believe and practice is not biblical.
WHY is Scripture NOT ENOUGH for you?
WHY is Jesus NOT ENOUGH for you?
Eli Flores the bible also instructs to uphold the Gospel and traditions! both spoken and written, our holy apostolic church has always upheld and will always uphold because that is her duty until
I can give out a number of reasons of why I favor the Holy Rosary.
1. It helps me become more connected with God, his son Jesus and Mother Mary.
2. It helps me become more calm, peaceful and quiet.
3. It helps me get rid of anything that is negative and it helps me get rid of anything that is emotionally and mentally unhealthy.
4. It helps me focus on whatever mysteries I can think of. Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, Glorious.
5. In the April 2009, I joined a Catholic fraternal organization that favors the Holy rosary. The Knights of Columbus.
So good!
Excellent
This was my first time watching one of your videos and it was really really good! 😊
That second one really struck a nerve with me. I’ve definitely abandoned the Rosary recently. 😬😰
Get back into the habit of praying it. Create a routine. I find it is easier to do on my way to work.
Stay strong in faith and God bless you
Carla Grado Thanks
Yes my friend I stopped praying for few yrs and was not doing well but last few yrs thank be to our Lady I have been praying but still its a struggle. Start again as these days are more difficult but glorious for us Christians. Pray for me also i will pray for you
@@wallrusmoose2111 Make it one of the year's resolutions, praying the rosary daily.
God bless you and your family.
Pray the entire Rosary Daily, which is 4 sets of Rosary.
Two quotes about the Rosary. "Hold on tightly to the Rosary. Be very grateful to the Madonna because it was she who gave us Jesus." St. Pio "The Rosary is the compendium of the entire Gospel." Pope Pius XII
Excellent Analogy! Love how you view the rosary I enjoy listening to it... Is that alright? What do you guys think?
Love this!
Thanks.
I pray it everyday but need more contemplation.
Love it.
Give a non-believer a rosary with instruction and a silent prayer to the Holy Spirit / THEY WILL become a confessing child of God. No doubt.
Thank you. Beautiful weapons to employ!
Bishop Doyle’s quote comes from St Louis De Montfort. The saint said the same exact thing.
While I always enjoy a good talk from Matt, I'm just here for the protestant trolls and their anti-catholic comments. It's always entertaining.
Should be more of them
Makes me sad, too Mr. Reddy. I'm a Protestant my whole life but am now a Candidate. I can't wait....so excited to finally be confirmed soon! I've lost 2 close Protestant friends simply because of my conversion. But that's okay. I LOVE Catholicism and would never turn back. Pray for the ""Protestant trolls". They don't know what they are missing. God bless you.
@@gravecat1902 who convinced you that there is evidence for a supernatural being, when we cannot investigate such a phenomenon and have no mechanism to demonstrate it?
@@rjskeptic5273 Mr. Lawlor, how wonderfully strange that you would be watching a video of a man talking about the power of the Rosary. But that is good! Keep that heart seeking. Please know you are so dearly loved. And there is a verse in the Bible that says that only a fool says in his heart there is no God. I think you know this to be true because we are hardwired, much like a computer, to instinctively know the truth in our hearts that our heavenly father loves us dearly and made us to know and love him back. Look up Mother Angelica or father Mike on RUclips. Mother Angelica is a darling. We just recently lost her but she's in heaven now done with her Earthly work after single-handedly creating the network EWTN with our Lord's help. Look her up keep searching and know that you are so terribly loved more than you will ever know.
@@gravecat1902 so you don't want to answer my question?
I do sometimes wonder what people think I’m doing mumbling to myself with my hand in my coat pocket on the walk to work.
Is there any chance the book will be on Amazon or available in the UK?
#askmattfradd
Where does the Church stand with regards to the 4 Archangels venerated in Orthodoxy from non-Scriptural sources? I always thought it was condemned, but I discovered my local Basilica in St. Louis has an image of ‘Barachiel the Archangel’ among its mosaics. And then I heard they are venerated in Byzantine Catholic Churches: is this true? If so, should we look upon devotion to them with favor or skepticism, or even outright rejection, as I thought was the case?
I thought I should ask you, being Byzantine and having a podcast about the ‘angelic doctor’ himself.
Thanks and God bless!
Is it possible To have a french traduc please ? I very like but I don t undersand all...
We are given two swords to fight the forces of darkness...one thru our mouth like Hebrews4:12.
and the most powerful one is the sword in our hand which is the rosary.
St.JP2 left us a weapon of LIGHT in these Age of Darkness.,the Luminous Mystery.
but we can still upgrade it to become a "spiritual FIERY sword", how?

Where is the rosary found in the Bible i have read it and can not find it.
People that says Only Pray to God, why do you ask your brothers in sisters in christ to pray for you? People keep on asking other people to pray for them, but are so against people asking Saints and Mary to Pray for us. We do not worship saints or Mary, we just asak them to pray for us as you would ask your brothers and sisters in Christ to Pray for you.
Where do I get a Rosary? Am I allowed just to purchase it online? Or do I have to ask for one from my church? Do I get it blessed by the priest?
You can find it on line or at a Caholic store , have your priest bless it . Here is a booklet you can use to pray www.americaneedsfatima.org/forms/WEB135.html
@@wallrusmoose2111 Thank you.
Does anyone know a good rosary book. I have one by David Cavillo
Are you a priest without a habit on? I’m just curious. I’m also new to this channel.
0:35 book and verse in the Bible? As far as I know my Lord Jesus Crist has something to do with my sins. Ill try to read into my Bible if anyone shares.
OK, so why do I need Mary and the Saints to intercede for me? Just asking.
Steven I am not this great believer of the rosary but be that as it may to answer you comment why do you need you brothers sisters friends coworkers to help you at times have you ever asked someone else for help for something you cant do on your own just saying
I'm confused don't many sainto say Mary is all powerful like Saint larwence and Saint luougri? God denies her nothing.
Our Lady is greater than all the saints in Heaven. She will crush the head of the serpent.
Asking a saint for her prayers ten times more than I'm reciting the lord's prayer seems a bit out of balance. Are we truly supposed to focus so much more on the relation with a saint than with the father?
It's not really about Mary, she just perfects our prayers to be sent to the Father. One way or another, it all goes back to one source! Mary can give our prayers more power and give us graces, as her greatest joy and ultimate goal is to unite us with the Father. Hope this helped!
On another note, the Hail Marys are short and good for saying in the background while meditating on the mysteries. The Rosary is a meditative devotion, so it's good to use a not-so-complex prayer.
I thought Jesus was our intercessor and mediator, even his own mother's mediator and intercessor.. Why would I want to replace HIM with anyone else??
Cody Blevins because theres benefits to praying to mother mary. And she can get her son to do things quicker. This is why scripturally this is such a wonderful prayer. Read what happened at the wedding feast of cana. You arnt praying to her but morso asking her to pray for you. A power that alot of people didnt know she had. However those in the catholic church thee apostles of christ are who recommend this prayer. And i think we should listen to them. Include the meditations if you decide to partake. There centered on the life of her son. Whos name is Jesus christ.
good soup.

SORRY DORY...........MASS IS GOLDEN BULLET!!............DAILY OR AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE......ROSARY IS SILVER BULLET!!................BIG LONG TIME SINNER TALKING FROM EXPERIENCE!
Why does he names all the saints as if they were normal people?
Catholic teaching consist three parts sacred traditions,or oral teaching,sacred scripture and magesterium so people who on relay on Bible will not understand deep in the scripture
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Matthew 6:7
The rosary is the opposite of vein.
Yet he gave us the Our Father which we repeat. The key word is vain.
No where in the Bible does in mention that you should use a rosary... Also no where does it say that we should pray to Mary.
but what did the Bible say about it?
Most of the prayers in the Rosary are directly in the Bible, such as the Lords prayer and the Angelic salutation.
@@CatholicK5357 ...and St. Elizabeth's words from the Visitation, too.
What bible did the early Christians read, and who compiled the new testament?
@@justincolannino6544 The books of the Old Covenant seemingly most read by early Christians was the Septuagint translation. I'm not sure how exactly 'they' know that, but they do (many of the New Covenant quotes from the Old points to the Greek translation rather than Hebrew). Who compiled? Catholic bishops.
@@paulmiller3469 precisely. 😀
4:40 i always hate hearing people say things like that. We humans are such warmongering animals as it is, its not a thing about us that should be encouraged even metaphorically. It leads to feelings of selfrighteous indignation and treating others as assumed enemies intead of potential friends.
Erin Becker He's talking about the spiritual life, the battle for our soul. Mary, often depicted crushing the serpent's head--and punching the devil in the face in a famous medieval painting--is the perfect intercessor for this war.
The Rosary and Mary's intercession were famously influential in the naval victory of the Holy League over the Ottomans in 1571, which is where Rosary Sunday comes from.
His speech is like his mouth is eating away his face... And kind of politeness is needed.. His voice and action is disturbing..
The Rosary is not 5 decades.
When Christ teaches us to pray in Matthew 6, the source of the Our Father, He commands "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him." We are exhorted by Scripture to meditate on Scripture like a cow chewing its cud (because repetition drums Truth into us helping to prevent us from forgetting like constantly straying Israel of the Old Testament), praying with a rosary can and should be much more than a bunch monotonous Hail Marys, nor did it always include even one Hail Mary much less a lot of them. There are plans and patterns for praying Psalms and other scripture passages, praying traditional prayers for certain needs or areas of sinful struggle, and different patterns or significance for the beads with each one being for a different type of prayer or a different topic to pray about. A rosary can be a powerful tool for strengthening your prayer life through intentional focus, but monotonously rattling off a bunch pleas to a woman neither Christ, Peter, Paul, or James, commanded us to pray to is the very definition of "vain repetitions."
Why do you protestants always TWIST the bible to interpret it the way you want in order to BASH Catholicism. When the ANGEL GABRIEL appeared to the Virgin Mary to inform her that she found favor with God and was chosen to conceive of The Holy Spirit and bring Jesus into the world, you protestants would not have Jesus, your savior. You better believe that SHE IS SPECIAL, She carried your LORD AND SAVIOR IN HER WOMB FOR NINE MONTHS, one can't get any closer than that. I don't think God appreciates people bashing His Mother. You say you love the Lord, but discredits His Mother. How can someone say they love you, yet discredits your mother? How would you like that? Seems kind of contradictory, doesn't it. We will say a ROSARY for you and maybe you'll get enlightened.
You are missing the point. The key word is "vain". He Himself taught us a prayer that we Christians repeat many times.
I'm a saint. The Bible says I am. I don't need a rosary.
Escriva is not a Saint of the True Church.
What does JESUS teach or say about the rosary?
How about Peter or Paul, James or Jude, Matthew,
Mark, Luke or John? What do they say about it?
They ALL say the same thing... NOTHING AT ALL!
-------------------------------------------------------------------
“Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.”
And He said to them, “When you pray, say: “FATHER,
hallowed be YOUR NAME. Luke 11
I am the Lord; that is My name; My glory I give
to NO OTHER, nor My praise to carved idols.
Isaiah 42:8
They have NO knowledge who carry about their
wooden idols, and keep on praying to a god that
CANNOT SAVE. Isaiah 45:20
For MY own sake, for MY OWN SAKE, I do it,
for how should My name be profaned? My glory
I will NOT give to another. Isaiah 48:11
That is not a good argument. Jesus didn't directly adress many things that we Christians do: going to church on a certain day of the week, having ministers/pastors, priests, having a "New Testament" (it was written years after he left), using the cross as a symbol, etc... That doesn't mean that those things are wrong, since they are means to reach Him, and become saints ourselves.
Very well put .Stick to Biblical Doctrine..Not Man made Pagan Doctrine
The Rosary is the Catholic copy of Buddhist prayer beads. God's first commandment instructs us to pray only to Him. Praying to a mortal human such as Mary violates God's own directive. The church gets around this by declaring Mary to be "queen of Heaven" and "co-redemptrix." That is blasphemy in the extreme.
It is not blasphemy to pray to Mary to intercede for us.....do you pray for others....is that blasphemy?? NO! Do you pray to God for others....its called intercessory prayer...who better than the Blessed Mother Mary to pray for us when we need some help getting our prayers answered.
@@maranathawatch1618 Thank you, it's refreshing to know someone out there in the comment section has some CLASS AND BRAINS.
@Joseph Van Zandt That is nonesense:
1) Of course the rosary is present in non-Catholic cultures. Muslims, Buddhists, Sikhs and other religions and cults have it. Its concept is so simple somebody eventually came up with it in every spiritual tradition. Is that even an argument? Atheist kids nowadays don't hesitate if they want to wear a T-shirt with the Hindu logo; wear an earring with the Holy Cross; or get a tattoo with the Hand of Fatima (wife of Muhammed).
2) Mary isn't a mere "mortal human", she is the mother of God. Was your mother (no offence to her) chosen at a young age to be the mother of His Son? If no, why do you want to belower her to the same category as your mother, or mine?
Who better? REALLY? How about the Holy Spirit!!!
Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness.
For we do not know what to pray for as we ought,
but the SPIRIT HIMSELF intercedes for us with
groanings too deep for words. Romans 8:26
How can you NOT KNOW HOW TO PRAY to GOD?!!
“Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.”
And He said to them, “When you pray, say: “FATHER,
hallowed be YOUR NAME. Luke 11
------------------------------------------------------------------------
When we pray for others, we pray to GOD. He hears.
When you pray to Mary it most certainly is blasphemy.
She is DEAD and she CANNOT HEAR YOU!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bible doesn’t teach to pray to Mary, the rcc does.
The Bible doesn’t teach to pray the rosary, the rcc does.
You can only say that pope whoever and padre so and so
said this was the thing to do BUT, NO SCRIPTURE!!!
The rosary is a “human tradition” can’t you see that?
Throughout Scripture, EVERYTHING points to, teaches,
directs, clarifies and affirms that GOD is our focus. GOD!
WHY, WHY, WHY is Jesus NOT ENOUGH for catholics?
Because they rely on others for Truth and not on God.
Jesus said so in Matthew and also in Mark.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
And He said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you
hypocrites, as it is written,
“‘This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far
from Me; in vain do they worship Me, teaching as doctrines
the commandments of men.’ You leave the commandment
of God and hold to the tradition of men.”
And He said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the
commandment of God in order to establish your tradition!
Mark 7:6-9 - Matthew 15:8-10
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Will you please tell me why Jesus is not enough for you?
@@eliflores8438
You found about correctly the Jesus alone concept , great , pl clarify one more thing why you people , who found the Jesus alone and scripture alone thing are now divided as 33000 denominations , do you found 33000 different versions of Jesus ???.same Bible , thousands of interpretations , whoever wants to give a new interpretation will start another new church and will come and fight with catholics. Great as well as intriguing....
Hogwash.
Nate Graham If you want to get closer to God you gotta go through Mary
Interesting, I thought Jesus was the only way. Thank you for reminding me that you worship Mary and neither Jesus nor God.
Nate Graham Jesus is the only way Mary helps us get there quicker! Then again disrespecting the Blessed mother is not something I would suggest either. That’s our mother your talkin about
@@joshuacapstick5322 Mary only makes it quicker? Could you get to God without Mary?
Of course you can get to God without Mary. His name is Jesus. And if the best you have is saying don't insult our mother, I'll pray for you. Last I checked, she didn't give birth to any of us.
