  • 00:00:00
    praying to Mary or through Mary and the
  • 00:00:05
    rosary okay now you said they what few
  • 00:00:09
    who like few people I know they left uh
  • 00:00:12
    Catholicism they left because they're
  • 00:00:14
    ignorant they don't know their faith
  • 00:00:16
    that's the sad thing you know most
  • 00:00:17
    people that leave Orthodox or Catholic
  • 00:00:20
    they do not know about the ancient
  • 00:00:23
    church or no know the Bible the great
  • 00:00:25
    depth this is a fact don't take my word
  • 00:00:27
    for it guys test me on this people who
  • 00:00:30
    leave the Orthodox Catholic are people
  • 00:00:32
    who are poorly catechized and yet the
  • 00:00:35
    people that convert back to Orthodoxy or
  • 00:00:37
    Catholic are people who are Highly
  • 00:00:39
    Educated who after studying church
  • 00:00:42
    history in the Bible after many years
  • 00:00:44
    realize they were mistaken and either go
  • 00:00:46
    back to the Catholic or Orthodox Church
  • 00:00:48
    do you know that's a fact I didn't know
  • 00:00:50
    that this is a fact I'm not lying guys
  • 00:00:53
    I'm not lying it is a fact that those
  • 00:00:56
    who leave the Catholic Church Orthodox
  • 00:00:57
    Church like when I left thean church is
  • 00:01:00
    because we knew nothing about the
  • 00:01:01
    ancient Church the beliefs of the
  • 00:01:04
    Christians for the first 300 years and
  • 00:01:06
    didn't really know the Bible the great
  • 00:01:08
    depth so we just read the Bible surface
  • 00:01:10
    level we left but then you hear about
  • 00:01:13
    thousands in the west thousands going
  • 00:01:16
    back to the Catholic church because the
  • 00:01:17
    Catholic church is better known in the
  • 00:01:18
    west than the Orthodox church and these
  • 00:01:20
    are people who after studying the Bible
  • 00:01:22
    and church history for years realize
  • 00:01:24
    they made a mistake and they go back now
  • 00:01:27
    to come back to the answering the
  • 00:01:28
    question they're telling you they had a
  • 00:01:30
    problem with praying to Mary why now why
  • 00:01:32
    do they have a problem with praying to
  • 00:01:34
    Mary um because they found nothing no
  • 00:01:37
    evidence in the Bible that said that um
  • 00:01:42
    Mary listens to the Lord ignorant
  • 00:01:46
    uninformed statement that's arguing from
  • 00:01:48
    Silence that's a bad way of arguing for
  • 00:01:50
    example if I follow that approach well
  • 00:01:52
    there's nothing in the Bible well that's
  • 00:01:54
    not the same thing as saying that the
  • 00:01:55
    Bible condemns it just because the Bible
  • 00:01:58
    doesn't mention something doesn't it
  • 00:02:00
    condemns it this is a bad way of
  • 00:02:01
    interpreting the Bible because a lot of
  • 00:02:03
    people can use that to prove too much
  • 00:02:05
    for example there's nowhere in the words
  • 00:02:08
    of Jesus where he says I am God or
  • 00:02:10
    worship me and there's nowhere in the
  • 00:02:12
    words of Jesus where he says that the
  • 00:02:14
    one God is the fatherly Spirit or
  • 00:02:16
    worship the father son holy spirit so if
  • 00:02:18
    I use that argument that means the
  • 00:02:20
    Trinity is not in the Bible which is how
  • 00:02:22
    Muslims argue Jo's Witnesses argue and
  • 00:02:25
    unitarians
  • 00:02:27
    argue to say that something's not in the
  • 00:02:30
    Bible is not the same thing as saying
  • 00:02:33
    that it's condemned in the
  • 00:02:35
    Bible to tell me it's condemned in the
  • 00:02:38
    Bible is one thing to tell me it's not
  • 00:02:39
    in the Bible is another because not
  • 00:02:41
    everything is in the Bible many things
  • 00:02:43
    in the Bible have to be inferred for
  • 00:02:45
    example if I had to ask you can you show
  • 00:02:48
    me where the Bible says do not snort
  • 00:02:51
    cocaine now why you laughing he's so
  • 00:02:54
    reminded but it didn't tell you that but
  • 00:02:57
    you extrapolated a principle so you just
  • 00:02:59
    Prov my point what did you do there's
  • 00:03:02
    nothing in the Bible that will condemn
  • 00:03:03
    something specifically but there are
  • 00:03:05
    principles in the Bible that you can
  • 00:03:08
    apply to address situations not
  • 00:03:10
    mentioned in the Bible you just did that
  • 00:03:11
    right yes okay now what's the basis for
  • 00:03:15
    praying for Mary number one does the
  • 00:03:17
    Bible say pray for one another yes it
  • 00:03:21
    does Ephesians 6:1 19-20 let me walk you
  • 00:03:23
    through this all right so let me now
  • 00:03:26
    walk you
  • 00:03:27
    into the way we come to and arrive at
  • 00:03:31
    the correct conclusion that the Blessed
  • 00:03:33
    Mother and the Saints can pray for us
  • 00:03:34
    are you ready
  • 00:03:36
    okay number one the Bible says pray for
  • 00:03:38
    one another Ephesians 61 19-
  • 00:03:41
    20 here Paul is asking the Christians to
  • 00:03:43
    do what for him Ephesians 6:1
  • 00:03:45
    19-2 are you want me to read it I mean
  • 00:03:48
    if you read in your heart I can't read
  • 00:03:49
    your heart I'm not in heaven
  • 00:03:51
    yet and for me that utterance may be
  • 00:03:54
    given to me this is a new King James and
  • 00:03:57
    by the way she's saying pray for me for
  • 00:04:00
    what and for me that utterance may be
  • 00:04:05
    given to me and that I may open my mouth
  • 00:04:08
    boldly to make known The Mystery of the
  • 00:04:12
    Gospel okay so he's asking you read
  • 00:04:14
    Ephesians 619 and 20 right that was 19 I
  • 00:04:18
    didn't read 208 then 20 for which I am
  • 00:04:22
    an ambassador in chains that I may speak
  • 00:04:25
    boldly as I ought to speak so Paul is
  • 00:04:28
    saying pray for me for boldness
  • 00:04:31
    right he we can pray for one another
  • 00:04:33
    Paul says pray for me right yes now go

  • 00:05:02
    James 5:13 to20 I want to read Revis
  • 00:05:04
    Standard Version Catholic that you one
  • 00:05:06
    second is anyone among you suffering let
  • 00:05:09

  • 00:05:11
    this is James 513- 20 specifically James
  • 00:05:13
    5 13- 16 but I'm going to read all let
  • 00:05:16
    him sing praise is any among you sick
  • 00:05:19
    let him call for the Elders of the
  • 00:05:20
    church let them pray over him anointing
  • 00:05:23
    him with oil in the name of the Lord and
  • 00:05:25
    the prayer of faith will save the sick
  • 00:05:28
    man and the the Lord will raise him up
  • 00:05:31
    and if he has committed sins he'll be
  • 00:05:32
    forgiven therefore confess your sins to
  • 00:05:35
    one another and pray for one another why
  • 00:05:38
    that you may be healed the prayer of a
  • 00:05:40
    righteous man has great power in its
  • 00:05:42
    effects okay did you catch it yes okay
  • 00:05:46
    it says when you are righteous the more
  • 00:05:48
    you submit to God the less you sin and
  • 00:05:51
    the more you obey the Holy Spirit the
  • 00:05:53
    more powerful your prayers that I I've
  • 00:05:58
    experienced that personally yeah yes I
  • 00:06:00
    agree with that in heaven those who are
  • 00:06:02
    alive in heaven are they perfect and
  • 00:06:04
    sinless no more sin well yes because
  • 00:06:07
    they're with the father are they
  • 00:06:09
    completely righteous so that they don't
  • 00:06:10
    have sin yes they are now if we assume
  • 00:06:14
    they're praying would that make their PR
  • 00:06:16
    prayers even more powerful than our than
  • 00:06:18
    our
  • 00:06:19
    prayers yes but they're not om omn
  • 00:06:22
    omnicient omnipresent change the
  • 00:06:24
    argument because Revelation 5:13 John
  • 00:06:27
    sees every creature praising God so he
  • 00:06:32
    om wait hold on re yes what I want to
  • 00:06:37
    say yes but no you don't have to be
  • 00:06:40
    omniscient all you need is an omniscient
  • 00:06:43
    God to make known to you that they're
  • 00:06:45
    praying and what they're saying so this
  • 00:06:47
    is a category error and it's a false
  • 00:06:49
    dilemma oh okay see that re it down for
  • 00:06:53
    me John says Revelation
  • 00:06:56
    5:13 and I heard every creature in
  • 00:06:58
    heaven on Earth beneath the Earth right
  • 00:07:01
    and all things in them I heard every
  • 00:07:03
    creature in heaven on Earth and the Seas
  • 00:07:06
    below and all things in them saying to
  • 00:07:09
    the one who sits on the throne and to
  • 00:07:10
    the lamb so he heard every creature in
  • 00:07:12
    all of creation so if I follow your
  • 00:07:13
    logic that means John is now omnipotent
  • 00:07:19
    omnicient but he was given this site you
  • 00:07:24
    just buried yourself so that means God
  • 00:07:25
    can give the Saints the knowledge that
  • 00:07:27
    you're asking them to pray
  • 00:07:30
    I'm I'm learning right
  • 00:07:32
    now don't worry I'm just challenging
  • 00:07:36
    right right right right makes sense
  • 00:07:38
    makes sense so going back to the issue
  • 00:07:40
    if they're alive and perfected in
  • 00:07:43
    heaven and the prayer of righteous man
  • 00:07:45
    will bring about great results so if
  • 00:07:50
    they're perfect and sinless how much
  • 00:07:52
    more powerful are their prayers a lot
  • 00:07:54
    more than mine I tell you now let me let
  • 00:07:57
    me then read on the rest of James
  • 00:07:58
    because he gives you an example of such
  • 00:07:59
    a person verse 17 Elijah was a man of
  • 00:08:03
    like nature he was a human like us right
  • 00:08:05
    with ourselves and he prayed fervently
  • 00:08:06
    that it might not rain and for three
  • 00:08:08
    years and six months it did not rain on
  • 00:08:10
    the earth then he prayed again and he
  • 00:08:12
    and the heaven gave rain and the Earth
  • 00:08:14
    brought forth its
  • 00:08:17
    fruit so number one we are to pray to
  • 00:08:20
    one another number two the more
  • 00:08:22
    righteous you are the less you sin the
  • 00:08:25
    more powerful your prayers happen to be
  • 00:08:29
    because in Deuteronomy 189 to14 it's
  • 00:08:31
    talking about the Pagan practice of
  • 00:08:35
    necromancy and contacting spirits to
  • 00:08:38
    enter you your body and channel through
  • 00:08:40
    you and speak through you as a medium as
  • 00:08:45
    a witch as a spiritist no one is asking
  • 00:08:50
    Mary to come and channel through them
  • 00:08:54
    and possess
  • 00:08:55
    them in order for Mary to speak through
  • 00:08:58
    them it's talking about specific Paving
  • 00:09:00
    practices where they would ask the
  • 00:09:03
    spirits of the Dead to channel through
  • 00:09:05
    them like a spiritist or a medium and
  • 00:09:08
    manifest and people do this to this day
  • 00:09:10
    they're called channelers where
  • 00:09:11
    supposedly the spirit comes over them
  • 00:09:13
    and then speaks through them and it's
  • 00:09:14
    not that person
  • 00:09:16
    anymore that's not communion Saints no
  • 00:09:19
    one is saying Mary come and channel
  • 00:09:21
    through me enter me and speak through
  • 00:09:24
    me and no one's going to a grave to
  • 00:09:27
    conjure up the spirit of the Dead to
  • 00:09:29
    then speak through them as a channel as
  • 00:09:31
    a witch as a medium learn the context
  • 00:09:34
    and the historical background now coming
  • 00:09:35
    back to the issue all right number
  • 00:09:38
    one we are to pray for another number
  • 00:09:41
    two the more righteous you are the more
  • 00:09:44
    effective your prayer right oh thank you
  • 00:09:47
    at least now you're saying okay now pray
  • 00:09:49
    for ihart Yeshua to because this
  • 00:09:52

  • 00:09:54
    Jesus Keep softening you opening your
  • 00:09:55
    heart destroy our pride bring you to the
  • 00:09:57
    truth okay glory to God there open so
  • 00:10:00
    miss quote 1 Timothy 25 I had high hopes
  • 00:10:02
    for you that came to my mind earlier
  • 00:10:04
    when uh before you brought up uh now I'm
  • 00:10:07
    going to answer it because he had this
  • 00:10:09
    in his mind now this is the one that
  • 00:10:12
    says one meter between God and man the
  • 00:10:13
    man Christ Jesus right yes all right if
  • 00:10:17
    this passage means that because Christ
  • 00:10:18
    is the one mediator we cannot mediate
  • 00:10:21
    and intercede you just destroyed the
  • 00:10:24
    Trinity can you tell me why wait what
  • 00:10:28
    you just destroyed the
  • 00:10:30
    Trinity for there is

    one you just destroyed the Trinity oh oh
  • 00:10:38
    okay I I see what you mean now I see
  • 00:10:39
    what you mean went on yes because wait
  • 00:10:43
    the one God is who in this
  • 00:10:45
    verse God the Father say it again the
  • 00:10:49
    father God the father because Jesus
  • 00:10:51
    mediates between the one God right yes
  • 00:10:53
    yes so if Jesus being the one mediator
  • 00:10:55
    means there are no other mediators then
  • 00:10:57
    you just prove Jesus can't be God
  • 00:10:59
    because the one God is the father I'm
  • 00:11:01
    trying I'm trying to understand like my
  • 00:11:03
    brain is not clicking it's not clicking
  • 00:11:06
    because understand the argument because
  • 00:11:08
    Jesus is the one mediator means there
  • 00:11:10
    are no other mediators right right but
  • 00:11:13
    then if you're gonna be consistent well
  • 00:11:15
    if the one God is the father then Jesus
  • 00:11:17
    can't be God
  • 00:11:19
    either oh okay that see now that makes
  • 00:11:21
    sense that makes sense now you
  • 00:11:23
    understand that can't possibly be true
  • 00:11:25
    right yes but Jesus is his God thank you
  • 00:11:28
    why because we look at what the Bible
  • 00:11:30
    says as a whole MH and though here the
  • 00:11:34
    one God is the father other places tell
  • 00:11:36
    us that Jesus and are one with the
  • 00:11:38
    father so God the father being the one
  • 00:11:42
    God is not to the exclusion of the son
  • 00:11:45
    it's in Union with him right yes
  • 00:11:48
    likewise when it says one mediator the
  • 00:11:51
    context is about Paul encouraging
  • 00:11:54
    Christians to intercede for the
  • 00:11:56
    Salvation of people why because you have
  • 00:11:58
    one medium Ator who makes your prayers
  • 00:12:01
    effectual and acceptable to God so now
  • 00:12:04
    pray for people's salvation that's the
  • 00:12:07
    context let me show you okay okay okay
  • 00:12:09
    okay that makes sense let me show you
  • 00:12:12
    now but here let's see how it begins
  • 00:12:15
    okay here's the context you
  • 00:12:18
    ready 1 Timothy
  • 00:12:21
    21-5 watch this is the context 1 Timothy
  • 00:12:24
    21 1 and2 watch this is the context okay
  • 00:12:28
    first of all then I urge that
  • 00:12:30
    supplications prayers intercessions wait
  • 00:12:34
    Paul is talking to Christian saying make
  • 00:12:40
    intercession that's the context of 1
  • 00:12:43
    Timothy 2
  • 00:12:45
    yeah but wait isn't part of the role of
  • 00:12:49
    a mediator to intercede uhhuh so why is
  • 00:12:53
    Paul starting the chapter saying you
  • 00:12:55
    Christians intercede and pray for all
  • 00:12:58
    men
  • 00:13:00
    when he just will go on to say well you
  • 00:13:02
    only have one
  • 00:13:06
    mediator because that shows you don't
  • 00:13:08
    know how to read context what Paul is
  • 00:13:11
    saying is you need to intercede for all
  • 00:13:14
    people for their salvation and pray for
  • 00:13:16
    them to be saved because God wants them
  • 00:13:18
    to be saved and because you have one
  • 00:13:20
    mediator who makes your prayers
  • 00:13:22
    acceptable know that when you pray God
  • 00:13:24
    will
  • 00:13:25
    hear if you pray in Jesus name well that
  • 00:13:29
    that's your mediator he's the only one
  • 00:13:30
    who makes your prayers acceptable so him
  • 00:13:33
    being the one mediator isn't
  • 00:13:35
    discouraging you from interceding it's
  • 00:13:37
    encouraging you intercede pray cry out
  • 00:13:41
    for the Salvation of people because now
  • 00:13:43
    you're one mediator unites you to God
  • 00:13:46
    and makes your prayers intercession
  • 00:13:48
    acceptable and God will answer that's
  • 00:13:50
    the
  • 00:13:52
    context okay that let read rest of it so
  • 00:13:55
    you see I'm not making it up you're
  • 00:13:56
    making you're making sense right now
  • 00:13:58
    okay okay now let's continue reading
  • 00:14:01
    first of all then I urge that
  • 00:14:02
    supplications prayers intercessions
  • 00:14:04
    thanksgivings be made for all men for
  • 00:14:06
    kings and all who are in high positions
  • 00:14:08
    that we may lead a quiet and peaceful
  • 00:14:11
    life Godly respectable in every way so
  • 00:14:13
    now why does God want all believers to
  • 00:14:15
    intercede here's your answer God why do
  • 00:14:17
    you want me to intercede and pray here's
  • 00:14:19
    the answer you ready 1 Timothy
  • 00:14:24
    21-5 this is good and is acceptable in
  • 00:14:27
    the sight of God our savior
  • 00:14:29
    who desires all men to be saved and to
  • 00:14:31
    come to knowledge of the truth for there
  • 00:14:33
    is one God and there's one meter between
  • 00:14:34
    God and man the man Christ Jesus that's
  • 00:14:36
    the
  • 00:14:38
    context so what's the context telling
  • 00:14:41
    you you cannot pray or intercede or
  • 00:14:43
    mediate because you have one mediator or
  • 00:14:46
    is the context the opposite the opposite
  • 00:14:49
    pray
  • 00:14:51
    intercede mediate for the Salvation of
  • 00:14:54
    people knowing that God wants all people
  • 00:14:57
    saved so when you pray intercede for
  • 00:14:58
    their salvation that Delights God and
  • 00:15:01
    because of Jesus your mediator he makes
  • 00:15:03
    your prayers acceptable to God because
  • 00:15:06
    the Bible I know it doesn't contradict
  • 00:15:08
    itself it's always now did you
  • 00:15:11
    understand brother yes I'm not gonna lie
  • 00:15:14
    this uh open up like like zillion more
  • 00:15:18
    questions but I ain't gonna take up your
  • 00:15:19
    time because you're well I can't open a
  • 00:15:21
    zillion more questions if number one we
  • 00:15:24
    are to pray for one another intercede
  • 00:15:26
    for one another number two they are
  • 00:15:28
    perfect in heaven and the more righteous
  • 00:15:30
    you are the more powerful your prayers
  • 00:15:31
    right see that part I understand um what
  • 00:15:35
    I don't understand is the
  • 00:15:39
    rosary and well do you have hymns and
  • 00:15:44
    songs that you sing that are not in
  • 00:15:47
    scripture oh of course that's no not of
  • 00:15:50
    course wait wait wait why don't you
  • 00:15:52
    understand about the rosary when it's
  • 00:15:53
    based on scripture if you're saying you
  • 00:15:55
    want to find the exact form then you're
  • 00:15:59
    being inconsistent on it's because you
  • 00:16:00
    have a lot of songs and hymns that
  • 00:16:03
    people came up with that are not in
  • 00:16:05
    scripture see that's say I don't know I
  • 00:16:07
    don't I look I got my information from
  • 00:16:11
    Tik Tok which is why I'm here but that's
  • 00:16:13
    what I'm trying to tell you uhuh the
  • 00:16:15
    principle is not whether the exact
  • 00:16:18
    prayer is found in scripture whether the
  • 00:16:20
    prayer doesn't contradict scripture and
  • 00:16:23
    it's faithful to the teaching of
  • 00:16:25
    scripture and let me tell you the part
  • 00:16:27
    of the Rosary which is scripture Hail
  • 00:16:29
    Mary full of grace that's Luke 1
  • 00:16:32
    128 in your translation you're going to
  • 00:16:35
    read it's going to say hail Mary highly
  • 00:16:37
    favored but let me show you other
  • 00:16:40
    translations said Luke 128 L 128 here
  • 00:16:44
    let me show it to you let's
  • 00:16:47
    see okay let me show you here all right
  • 00:16:51
    I'm ready go ahead go ahead Luke 128 and
  • 00:16:54
    he came to her and said hail full of
  • 00:16:55
    grace the Lord is with you that's Hail
  • 00:16:57
    Mary full of grace
  • 00:16:59
    hail full of grace the Lord is with you
  • 00:17:02
    that's one right yeah mine says and
  • 00:17:05
    having come in the angel said to her
  • 00:17:07
    Rejoice highly favored one the Lord is
  • 00:17:09
    so many I know because your Protestant
  • 00:17:12
    Bibles uhuh being reactionary to the
  • 00:17:15
    Catholic Church will
  • 00:17:17
    translate many as highly favored as
  • 00:17:20
    opposed to filled with grace that's
  • 00:17:22
    irrelevant to the fact that this is
  • 00:17:24
    based on scripture in other words the
  • 00:17:28
    terms
  • 00:17:29
    full of grace is a translation of Luke
  • 00:17:35
    128 that's why I just showed you R
  • 00:17:37
    Standard Version Catholic edition notice
  • 00:17:40
    that Greek word they render full of
  • 00:17:42
    grace because they are not reacting
  • 00:17:45
    against the Catholic church so they're
  • 00:17:47
    rendering it as it can be rendered
  • 00:17:50
    filled with
  • 00:17:52
    grace so that's one it comes from Luke 1
  • 00:17:55
    128 Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is
  • 00:17:58
    with thee
  • 00:18:00
    now where do we get the Lord is with
  • 00:18:01
    thee okay are you ready you
  • 00:18:03
    ready uhhuh all right Luke
  • 00:18:07
    1 28 to 30 1 second and 40 to 1 second
  • 00:18:11
    the cat needs
  • 00:18:12
    attention all right read with me
  • 00:18:17
    okay right there in 28 what does it say
  • 00:18:20
    does it say Lord is with thee with you
  • 00:18:23
    yes it does okay whether your
  • 00:18:25
    translation says highly favored or full
  • 00:18:27
    of grace the word many can be rendered
  • 00:18:31
    Full of Grace So when you say Hail Mary
  • 00:18:33
    full of grace they're citing Luke 1
  • 00:18:37
    128 okay now when it says blessed art
  • 00:18:40
    thou amongst women and blessed is the
  • 00:18:42
    fruit of thy womb Jesus all right now
  • 00:18:44
    here Luke 1 142
  • 00:18:47
    okay all right it's on the screen again
  • 00:18:49
    and she exclaimed with a loud cry
  • 00:18:52
    blessed are you among woman and blessed
  • 00:18:54
    is the fruit of your
  • 00:18:56
    womb so the first part of the Rosary is
  • 00:18:59
    in the New
  • 00:19:01
    Testament now the second part holy Mary
  • 00:19:04
    Mother of God pray for us sinners now
  • 00:19:06
    and at the hour of our death okay is
  • 00:19:09
    Mary
  • 00:19:11
    holy oh now she is I mean Oh you mean on
  • 00:19:14
    Earth she was sinful and wicked and
  • 00:19:15
    immoral no I didn't say that don't is
  • 00:19:18
    Mary holy yes I'll say yes so Holy Mary
  • 00:19:22
    do you
  • 00:19:23
    object no mother of God is she not the
  • 00:19:27
    mother of God yeah yes so what parts of
  • 00:19:31
    those prayer do you have a problem with
  • 00:19:34
    the only problem you're going to have is
  • 00:19:35
    pray for a sinners now at the hour of
  • 00:19:37
    death but that's the debate isn't it can
  • 00:19:38
    she pray for us or not well that's
  • 00:19:41
    something that I have to do more
  • 00:19:42
    research in yes and that's what I'm
  • 00:19:44
    trying to show you those in heaven are
  • 00:19:46
    aware of what's taking place on Earth
  • 00:19:47
    and they
  • 00:19:50
    pray did you know they're having Church
  • 00:19:52
    in
  • 00:19:54
    heaven I forgot where I read I know
  • 00:19:56
    that's somewhere in the Bible Hebrews 12
  • 00:20:00
    22 to 24 now you want to open up your
  • 00:20:03
    Bible too no no no go go ahead Hebrews
  • 00:20:08
    1222 to 24 uhuh now let me ask you
  • 00:20:11
    something what do people do in the
  • 00:20:13
    church
  • 00:20:15
    um do they pray for people oh yes I
  • 00:20:19
    thought you talk they worship God they
  • 00:20:20
    sing but do they pray for people yes
  • 00:20:23
    okay here you go Hebrews 12:22 to 24 but
  • 00:20:26
    you have come to Mount Zion and to the
  • 00:20:28
    city of the Living God the heavenly
  • 00:20:30
    Jerusalem this is heaven right yes and
  • 00:20:33
    to innumerable angels and fesal
  • 00:20:35
    Gathering and to the Church of the
  • 00:20:37
    firstborn meaning the Church of those
  • 00:20:39
    who first believe because it's plural
  • 00:20:41
    who are who are enrolled in heaven and
  • 00:20:44
    to a judge who is God of all and the
  • 00:20:46
    spirits of just men made perfect and to
  • 00:20:49
    Jesus the medeor of a New Covenant and
  • 00:20:51
    to the sprinkled blood that speaks more
  • 00:20:53
    graciously than the blood of Abel so
  • 00:20:55
    they're having Church in
  • 00:20:56
    heaven yes and those spirits who died
  • 00:21:00
    they're in
  • 00:21:01
    heaven yes are they
  • 00:21:04
    perfect yes made perfect how powerful
  • 00:21:07
    are your
  • 00:21:09
    prayers powerful like it says in in
  • 00:21:12
    church they pray and they're having
  • 00:21:14
    Church in
  • 00:21:15
    heaven they're not praying they are
  • 00:21:19
    because at church you pray but in church
  • 00:21:20
    you pray for the Lost Sinners
  • 00:21:23
    right yes and you pray for your brothers
  • 00:21:26
    sisters in Christ right yes okay so what
  • 00:21:28
    are they doing in heaven cap
  • 00:21:31
    dancing they're praying I mean I I would
  • 00:21:35
    have thought I would have thought you
  • 00:21:36
    know since they're in heaven they're in
  • 00:21:37
    God's presence they just gonna be
  • 00:21:38
    glorifying him all day so you
  • 00:21:42
    mean that if they're the church and they
  • 00:21:45
    know they're one body with us on Earth
  • 00:21:47
    and they know the plight of Believers on
  • 00:21:49
    Earth and Jesus tells us to love one
  • 00:21:50
    another as he's loved us and love your
  • 00:21:52
    neighbor as yourself and one of the ways
  • 00:21:55
    we we love them is to pray for them so
  • 00:21:57
    they're so busy glor find God that they
  • 00:21:59
    forget their brothers on
  • 00:22:01
    Earth okay that makes sense okay and if
  • 00:22:04
    they're perfect are their prayers
  • 00:22:06
    perfect yes and are their prayers more
  • 00:22:08
    powerful yes and then on top of that
  • 00:22:10
    Revelations 6:9-11 that the people are
  • 00:22:13
    aware of what will take place on Earth
  • 00:22:15
    and would be concerned here you go I'm G
  • 00:22:17
    to give you a few more here you go
  • 00:22:18
    Revelation 6:9-11 when he opened the
  • 00:22:21
    fifth seal I saw under the altar The
  • 00:22:23
    Souls of those who had been slain for
  • 00:22:26
    the word of God their souls are there in
  • 00:22:28
    the altar in heaven the bodies are not
  • 00:22:31
    and for the witness they had borne they
  • 00:22:33
    cried out with a loud voice oh Sovereign
  • 00:22:36
    Lord holy and true how long before thou
  • 00:22:39
    will judge and avenge our blood on those
  • 00:22:42
    who dwell upon the Earth so they're
  • 00:22:44
    concerned about the people that killed
  • 00:22:46
    them when are you going to punish them
  • 00:22:48
    then they were each given a white robe
  • 00:22:50
    and told to rest a little longer until
  • 00:22:53
    the number of their fellow servants and
  • 00:22:55
    their Brethren should be complete or to
  • 00:22:57
    be killed as they themselves had been
  • 00:22:59
    Jesus has told them the
  • 00:23:01
    future so if let me see if I understand
  • 00:23:06
    that did you see that Jesus just told
  • 00:23:07
    them the future that they have to rest
  • 00:23:10
    until the last
  • 00:23:12
    believer comes to us no the last person
  • 00:23:16
    who's murdered then God will avenge them
  • 00:23:19
    you're misreading it
  • 00:23:21
    okay but did Jesus just tell them what's
  • 00:23:24
    going to happen on Earth yes and in the
  • 00:23:26
    future so you're just telling me Jesus
  • 00:23:28
    made them known what's going to take
  • 00:23:29
    place to their brothers on Earth yes and
  • 00:23:32
    you're telling me they don't love them
  • 00:23:33
    enough to pray for them no they do well
  • 00:23:36
    they should he just answered the
  • 00:23:37
    question they're praying for
  • 00:23:43
    us that makes sense now let me give you
  • 00:23:45
    the final one for the sake of time I did
  • 00:23:47
    a whole series on communion Saints it's
  • 00:23:49
    on my playlist all right I'm gonna You
  • 00:23:52
    Know Rich Man Lazarus die yes okay watch
  • 00:23:57
    well hold on let's see it's
  • 00:24:00
    okay Abraham died before Moses and the
  • 00:24:02
    prophets and their scriptures right yes
  • 00:24:05
    okay explain this to me when the rich
  • 00:24:08
    man looked at Abraham Lazarus and he
  • 00:24:10
    told Abraham tell Lazarus to dip this
  • 00:24:11
    finger in this water and cool my tongue
  • 00:24:13
    because I'm in torment I'm almost done
  • 00:24:16
    crystals anyway but Abraham said Son
  • 00:24:19
    remember that you in your lifetime
  • 00:24:21
    received your good things and L in like
  • 00:24:22
    manner evil things how did he know how
  • 00:24:24
    they lived on
  • 00:24:26
    Earth how did Abraham know because he
  • 00:24:28
    just said you in your lifetime received
  • 00:24:32
    good things Lazarus evil things how did
  • 00:24:34
    he know how they lived on earth God had
  • 00:24:37
    to tell them because so you just
  • 00:24:39
    answered your question again God makes
  • 00:24:40
    known to them what takes place on
  • 00:24:46
    Earth okay but wait let's go on but now
  • 00:24:50
    he has comforted here and you are an
  • 00:24:52
    anguish and
  • 00:24:53
    besides between us and you a great Chasm
  • 00:24:56
    Chasm has been fixed in order that those
  • 00:25:00
    who would pass from here to you may not
  • 00:25:02
    be able and none may cross from there to
  • 00:25:05
    us watch here the rest of it Luke 16
  • 00:25:09
    27-31 okay and he said then I beg you
  • 00:25:13
    father to send him to my father's house
  • 00:25:17
    for I have five brothers so that he may
  • 00:25:19
    warn them lest they also come into this
  • 00:25:21
    place of dor so a wicked man is
  • 00:25:22
    concerned about his family members on
  • 00:25:25
    Earth yes he is but believers who are
  • 00:25:28
    perfect in love are not concerned about
  • 00:25:30
    their brothers on
  • 00:25:31
    Earth well they should be as well thank
  • 00:25:34
    you but now watch this remember Abraham
  • 00:25:36
    died before Moses
  • 00:25:38
    and and the prophets right
  • 00:25:42
    yes and Moses and Prophets left
  • 00:25:45
    scriptures years after Abraham died
  • 00:25:47
    right but now notice what Abraham knows
  • 00:25:49
    but Abraham said they they have Moses
  • 00:25:52
    and the prophets how did he know that
  • 00:25:55
    how did he know what his brothers on
  • 00:25:57
    Earth had at that time they have Moses
  • 00:25:59
    and the
  • 00:26:01
    prophets oh that makes so much sense let
  • 00:26:05
    them hear them meaning read their
  • 00:26:06
    writings and he said no Father Abraham
  • 00:26:09
    but if someone goes to them from the
  • 00:26:10
    dead they'll repent he said them if they
  • 00:26:12
    do not hear Moses and the prophets
  • 00:26:15
    neither will they be convinced if
  • 00:26:17
    someone should rise from the dead how
  • 00:26:19
    did Abraham know Moses and the prophets
  • 00:26:21
    came after him left scriptures behind
  • 00:26:24
    and that this man's Brothers had those
  • 00:26:25
    scriptures on Earth at that moment how
  • 00:26:27
    do you know all that well because if
  • 00:26:30
    he's in heaven he's outside of time now
  • 00:26:32
    no Heaven is part of time no no okay so
  • 00:26:34
    then heav and are part of time and
  • 00:26:36
    creation only God is outside of time
  • 00:26:38
    okay so then God how do told them God
  • 00:26:40
    showed him so you just established they
  • 00:26:44
    are aware what takes place on Earth
  • 00:26:46
    because God makes them aware they are
  • 00:26:48
    perfect and sinless so their prayers are
  • 00:26:50
    perfect and powerful and they're still
  • 00:26:52
    the church one with us and still love us
  • 00:26:54
    and you see where the church came up
  • 00:26:56
    with oh then then they must be praying
  • 00:26:57
    for us
  • 00:26:59
    yes okay that makes sense end up story
  • 00:27:03
    brother that's
  • 00:27:04
    it and Jesus said they're not dead oh
  • 00:27:07
    they're dead no Luke 20 3738 he says
  • 00:27:11
    they're not dead they're all alive to
  • 00:27:13
    them here let me show you so oh they're
  • 00:27:14
    dead that means Jesus is lying and that
  • 00:27:17
    means you're a blasphemy because Jesus
  • 00:27:18
    can't lie you said what I'm gonna give
  • 00:27:22
    it to you hold on Sir okay you're so
  • 00:27:24
    excited man you're so excited Luke 20
  • 00:27:27
    3738
  • 00:27:29
    he says they're not
  • 00:27:31
    dead there you go on the screen but the
  • 00:27:35
    dead that the dead are raised even Moses
  • 00:27:37
    showed in the passage about the bush
  • 00:27:40
    where he calls the Lord the god of
  • 00:27:41
    Abraham the god of Isaac God of Jacob
  • 00:27:42
    now he is not the god of the dead but of
  • 00:27:45
    the living for all live to
  • 00:27:49
    him so I dare you say Abraham is dead
  • 00:27:52
    when Jesus says no he's alive but now
  • 00:27:54
    watch here 49 to
  • 00:27:57
    53 John 8:49 to 53 so that's it man you
  • 00:28:00
    got your case now it's up to you whether
  • 00:28:02
    you want to believe it or not John 8:
  • 00:28:04
    49-53 Jesus answered I am not a demon
  • 00:28:08
    but I honor my father and you dishonor
  • 00:28:10
    me yet I do not seek my own Glory there
  • 00:28:12
    is one who seeks it and he will be the
  • 00:28:14
    judge truly truly I say to you if anyone
  • 00:28:17
    keeps my word he will never see death I
  • 00:28:20
    dare you to tell me he's lying that Mary
  • 00:28:21
    is dead say Mary is dead why would I say
  • 00:28:24
    that this exactly because you can't you
  • 00:28:27
    know you can't right called eternal life
  • 00:28:29
    they shall never perish all right the
  • 00:28:32
    Jews said to him now we know that you
  • 00:28:33
    have a demon Abraham died and did the
  • 00:28:36
    prophets and you say if anyone keeps my
  • 00:28:38
    word he will never taste death are you
  • 00:28:41
    greater than our Father Abraham who died
  • 00:28:43
    and the prophets died who do you claim
  • 00:28:44
    to be now the final one John 11:25-26
  • 00:28:51
    so that's it that's where we get the
  • 00:28:54
    community of saints their intercession
  • 00:28:56
    and the intercession of the Blessed
  • 00:28:57
    Mother I'm done right after this Andreas
  • 00:28:59
    right after this John
  • 00:29:01
    11:25 to 26 Jesus said to her I am the
  • 00:29:05
    resurrection and the life he who
  • 00:29:08
    believes in me though he die yet shall
  • 00:29:09
    he live and whoever lives and Believes
  • 00:29:11
    In Me shall never die do you believe
  • 00:29:13
    this so Peter James John Paul Mary all
  • 00:29:18
    believed in Christ are they dead or are
  • 00:29:20
    they still alive they're alive end of
  • 00:29:22
    story what's what do you got left buddy
  • 00:29:24
    now go watch my series on communion of
  • 00:29:27
    saints
  • 00:29:28
    but that's it man now if you want to
  • 00:29:30
    still not believe it that's between you
  • 00:29:31
    and God man oh no no no I I believe it
  • 00:29:35
    like it everything made perfect sense
  • 00:29:38
    it's not like it didn't make any sense
  • 00:29:40
    yeah like how some people that's why we
  • 00:29:42
    get offended when people say we're we're
  • 00:29:46
    speaking to dead people that's a
  • 00:29:48
    blasphemy because J says they're not
  • 00:29:50
    dead we're worshiping them that's
  • 00:29:51
    blasphemy we're not worshiping them and
  • 00:29:54
    there's one mediator as if we don't know
  • 00:29:55
    those passages this why I get angry
  • 00:29:58
    where does the worship thing come from
  • 00:30:00
    that's my that's literally my last in
  • 00:30:02
    their stupidity they think if I ask Mary
  • 00:30:05
    to pray for me that's worship no it's
  • 00:30:07
    not asking is not worship it's not
  • 00:30:10
    idolatry either no I've gone through
  • 00:30:13
    series teaching that's that's garbage
  • 00:30:15
    but I hope that answered you brother
  • 00:30:16
    because yes not that I want to cut you
  • 00:30:18
