    It really struck me how the devil said that if there were just 3 of St. John Vianny on earth that his kingdom would be destroyed. Even though 80000 souls would seem to be a small number for us, especially considering the millions of people alive at that time and billions now, it really goes to show just how powerful God's grace is and what great things He uses His saints to do. Let's all strive to be the other 2 holy people. St. Jean Vianney, pray for us.

      ​@@thisis_chavezI imagine it would have a compound effect. Like 80k plus 80k equals much more than 160k

    2:47 - this only shows that we MUST offer all our mortifications, crossess, works, duties, prayers for the conversion of sinners, it's very powerful!

    Thank you for uploading this video, I just started reading the sermons of St John Vianney. I'll make sure to look for the source of this story. I was wondering if you considered maybe telling some stories of the martyrs of Rome and Japan that St. Alphonsus Ligori wrote about in his book on the martyrs.

    When you come under demonic attack, humble yourself. They are a lot bigger than you. God will use you, if you recognize His strength and not your own.

    This shows another story how the saints are disturbed by the devil but it can help with the sanctification of their souls or the salvation of souls. The demons does not appear to disturb the worldly and sinful people but he tries to disturb the people who are near to God.

    Because he was a fanatic, simple man from rural France from xviii century?

      In his "Soul of the Apostolate," Dom Chautard relates that an impious lawyer went to Ars to mock its unlearned Curé. But he returned converted. Someone asked him: What did you see there? He answered: "I saw God in a man." That is, the presence of God was in St. John Vianney. One could note that God was with him and in him. Hardly a fanatic, but a real miracle worker in the stubborn hearts of men.

      If this is what you think a fanatic is, then I hope to dome day be one.

      @@catholicmenspodcast As a "Dom" he seems to be a very reliable source.

    • @catholicmenspodcast
      @catholicmenspodcast  25 дней назад +6

      His name is Jean-Baptiste Chautard (1858-1935). "Dom" is an honorific title in French. He was abbot at the Trappist Monastery, Sept-Fons. His greatest work, "The Soul of the Apostolate," was the bedside book of St. Pius X.
