The speaker discusses the reasons some individuals leave the Catholic or Orthodox faith, attributing it to ignorance and lack of understanding of church history and biblical depth. The speaker notes that highly educated individuals often return to these faiths after studying church history and the Bible, recognizing their previous misconceptions.
- 00:05:00 - 00:10:00
The conversation continues to involve the issue of praying to Mary, with the speaker arguing that the absence of evidence in the Bible does not equate to a condemnation of the practice. They point out that many important biblical concepts require inference rather than explicit mention in Scripture.
- 00:10:00 - 00:15:00
The speaker shares biblical references emphasizing the importance of prayer within the community, such as Ephesians 6:19-20 and James 5:13-20, asserting that prayer among believers strengthens faith and reflects their connection with the divine.
- 00:15:00 - 00:20:00

Finally, the speaker concludes by affirming the belief that both Mary and the saints can intercede for the living, using several biblical references to support the view of the communion of saints, clarifying that this practice does not contradict the existence of Jesus as the sole mediator.

- 00:00:00praying to Mary or through Mary and the
- 00:00:05rosary okay now you said they what few
- 00:00:09who like few people I know they left uh
- 00:00:12Catholicism they left because they're
- 00:00:14ignorant they don't know their faith
- 00:00:16that's the sad thing you know most
- 00:00:17people that leave Orthodox or Catholic
- 00:00:20they do not know about the ancient
- 00:00:23church or no know the Bible the great
- 00:00:25depth this is a fact don't take my word
- 00:00:27for it guys test me on this people who
- 00:00:30leave the Orthodox Catholic are people
- 00:00:32who are poorly catechized and yet the
- 00:00:35people that convert back to Orthodoxy or
- 00:00:37Catholic are people who are Highly
- 00:00:39Educated who after studying church
- 00:00:42history in the Bible after many years
- 00:00:44realize they were mistaken and either go
- 00:00:46back to the Catholic or Orthodox Church
- 00:00:48do you know that's a fact I didn't know
- 00:00:50that this is a fact I'm not lying guys
- 00:00:53I'm not lying it is a fact that those
- 00:00:56who leave the Catholic Church Orthodox
- 00:00:57Church like when I left thean church is
- 00:01:00because we knew nothing about the
- 00:01:01ancient Church the beliefs of the
- 00:01:04Christians for the first 300 years and
- 00:01:06didn't really know the Bible the great
- 00:01:08depth so we just read the Bible surface
- 00:01:10level we left but then you hear about
- 00:01:13thousands in the west thousands going
- 00:01:16back to the Catholic church because the
- 00:01:17Catholic church is better known in the
- 00:01:18west than the Orthodox church and these
- 00:01:20are people who after studying the Bible
- 00:01:22and church history for years realize
- 00:01:24they made a mistake and they go back now
- 00:01:27to come back to the answering the
- 00:01:28question they're telling you they had a
- 00:01:30problem with praying to Mary why now why
- 00:01:32do they have a problem with praying to
- 00:01:34Mary um because they found nothing no
- 00:01:37evidence in the Bible that said that um
- 00:01:42Mary listens to the Lord ignorant
- 00:01:46uninformed statement that's arguing from
- 00:01:48Silence that's a bad way of arguing for
- 00:01:50example if I follow that approach well
- 00:01:52there's nothing in the Bible well that's
- 00:01:54not the same thing as saying that the
- 00:01:55Bible condemns it just because the Bible
- 00:01:58doesn't mention something doesn't it
- 00:02:00condemns it this is a bad way of
- 00:02:01interpreting the Bible because a lot of
- 00:02:03people can use that to prove too much
- 00:02:05for example there's nowhere in the words
- 00:02:08of Jesus where he says I am God or
- 00:02:10worship me and there's nowhere in the
- 00:02:12words of Jesus where he says that the
- 00:02:14one God is the fatherly Spirit or
- 00:02:16worship the father son holy spirit so if
- 00:02:18I use that argument that means the
- 00:02:20Trinity is not in the Bible which is how
- 00:02:22Muslims argue Jo's Witnesses argue and
- 00:02:25unitarians
- 00:02:27argue to say that something's not in the
- 00:02:30Bible is not the same thing as saying
- 00:02:33that it's condemned in the
- 00:02:35Bible to tell me it's condemned in the
- 00:02:38Bible is one thing to tell me it's not
- 00:02:39in the Bible is another because not
- 00:02:41everything is in the Bible many things
- 00:02:43in the Bible have to be inferred for
- 00:02:45example if I had to ask you can you show
- 00:02:48me where the Bible says do not snort
- 00:02:51cocaine now why you laughing he's so
- 00:02:54reminded but it didn't tell you that but
- 00:02:57you extrapolated a principle so you just
- 00:02:59Prov my point what did you do there's
- 00:03:02nothing in the Bible that will condemn
- 00:03:03something specifically but there are
- 00:03:05principles in the Bible that you can
- 00:03:08apply to address situations not
- 00:03:10mentioned in the Bible you just did that
- 00:03:11right yes okay now what's the basis for
- 00:03:15praying for Mary number one does the
- 00:03:17Bible say pray for one another yes it
- 00:03:21does Ephesians 6:1 19-20 let me walk you
- 00:03:23through this all right so let me now
- 00:03:26walk you
- 00:03:27into the way we come to and arrive at
- 00:03:31the correct conclusion that the Blessed
- 00:03:33Mother and the Saints can pray for us
- 00:03:34are you ready
- 00:03:36okay number one the Bible says pray for
- 00:03:38one another Ephesians 61 19-
- 00:03:4120 here Paul is asking the Christians to
- 00:03:43do what for him Ephesians 6:1
- 00:03:4519-2 are you want me to read it I mean
- 00:03:48if you read in your heart I can't read
- 00:03:49your heart I'm not in heaven
- 00:03:51yet and for me that utterance may be
- 00:03:54given to me this is a new King James and
- 00:03:57by the way she's saying pray for me for
- 00:04:00what and for me that utterance may be
- 00:04:05given to me and that I may open my mouth
- 00:04:08boldly to make known The Mystery of the
- 00:04:12Gospel okay so he's asking you read
- 00:04:14Ephesians 619 and 20 right that was 19 I
- 00:04:18didn't read 208 then 20 for which I am
- 00:04:22an ambassador in chains that I may speak
- 00:04:25boldly as I ought to speak so Paul is
- 00:04:28saying pray for me for boldness
- 00:04:31right he we can pray for one another
- 00:04:33Paul says pray for me right yes now go
- 00:04:36to James 5 13 and20 pay attention James
- 00:04:385 1320 but specifically James 5 13- 16
- 00:04:43James
- 00:04:455 follow how it
- 00:04:47works take I'll start reading for you
- 00:04:49all right I'm GNA start reading okay go
- 00:04:51ahead go ahead okay hold on let me line
- 00:04:53it up for you so that you know okay so
- 00:04:54James 513- 20 and I got to line it up
- 00:04:58all right well Les me over here okay is
- 00:05:00any among you Afflicted let him pray
- 00:05:02James 5:13 to20 I want to read Revis
- 00:05:04Standard Version Catholic that you one
- 00:05:06second is anyone among you suffering let
- 00:05:09him pray is any cheerful let him pray
- 00:05:11this is James 513- 20 specifically James
- 00:05:135 13- 16 but I'm going to read all let
- 00:05:16him sing praise is any among you sick
- 00:05:19let him call for the Elders of the
- 00:05:20church let them pray over him anointing
- 00:05:23him with oil in the name of the Lord and
- 00:05:25the prayer of faith will save the sick
- 00:05:28man and the the Lord will raise him up
- 00:05:31and if he has committed sins he'll be
- 00:05:32forgiven therefore confess your sins to
- 00:05:35one another and pray for one another why
- 00:05:38that you may be healed the prayer of a
- 00:05:40righteous man has great power in its
- 00:05:42effects okay did you catch it yes okay
- 00:05:46it says when you are righteous the more
- 00:05:48you submit to God the less you sin and
- 00:05:51the more you obey the Holy Spirit the
- 00:05:53more powerful your prayers that I I've
- 00:05:58experienced that personally yeah yes I
- 00:06:00agree with that in heaven those who are
- 00:06:02alive in heaven are they perfect and
- 00:06:04sinless no more sin well yes because
- 00:06:07they're with the father are they
- 00:06:09completely righteous so that they don't
- 00:06:10have sin yes they are now if we assume
- 00:06:14they're praying would that make their PR
- 00:06:16prayers even more powerful than our than
- 00:06:18our
- 00:06:19prayers yes but they're not om omn
- 00:06:22omnicient omnipresent change the
- 00:06:24argument because Revelation 5:13 John
- 00:06:27sees every creature praising God so he
- 00:06:32om wait hold on re yes what I want to
- 00:06:37say yes but no you don't have to be
- 00:06:40omniscient all you need is an omniscient
- 00:06:43God to make known to you that they're
- 00:06:45praying and what they're saying so this
- 00:06:47is a category error and it's a false
- 00:06:49dilemma oh okay see that re it down for
- 00:06:53me John says Revelation
- 00:06:565:13 and I heard every creature in
- 00:06:58heaven on Earth beneath the Earth right
- 00:07:01and all things in them I heard every
- 00:07:03creature in heaven on Earth and the Seas
- 00:07:06below and all things in them saying to
- 00:07:09the one who sits on the throne and to
- 00:07:10the lamb so he heard every creature in
- 00:07:12all of creation so if I follow your
- 00:07:13logic that means John is now omnipotent
- 00:07:19omnicient but he was given this site you
- 00:07:24just buried yourself so that means God
- 00:07:25can give the Saints the knowledge that
- 00:07:27you're asking them to pray
- 00:07:30I'm I'm learning right
- 00:07:32now don't worry I'm just challenging
- 00:07:36right right right right makes sense
- 00:07:38makes sense so going back to the issue
- 00:07:40if they're alive and perfected in
- 00:07:43heaven and the prayer of righteous man
- 00:07:45will bring about great results so if
- 00:07:50they're perfect and sinless how much
- 00:07:52more powerful are their prayers a lot
- 00:07:54more than mine I tell you now let me let
- 00:07:57me then read on the rest of James
- 00:07:58because he gives you an example of such
- 00:07:59a person verse 17 Elijah was a man of
- 00:08:03like nature he was a human like us right
- 00:08:05with ourselves and he prayed fervently
- 00:08:06that it might not rain and for three
- 00:08:08years and six months it did not rain on
- 00:08:10the earth then he prayed again and he
- 00:08:12and the heaven gave rain and the Earth
- 00:08:14brought forth its
- 00:08:17fruit so number one we are to pray to
- 00:08:20one another number two the more
- 00:08:22righteous you are the less you sin the
- 00:08:25more powerful your prayers happen to be
- 00:08:29because in Deuteronomy 189 to14 it's
- 00:08:31talking about the Pagan practice of
- 00:08:35necromancy and contacting spirits to
- 00:08:38enter you your body and channel through
- 00:08:40you and speak through you as a medium as
- 00:08:45a witch as a spiritist no one is asking
- 00:08:50Mary to come and channel through them
- 00:08:54and possess
- 00:08:55them in order for Mary to speak through
- 00:08:58them it's talking about specific Paving
- 00:09:00practices where they would ask the
- 00:09:03spirits of the Dead to channel through
- 00:09:05them like a spiritist or a medium and
- 00:09:08manifest and people do this to this day
- 00:09:10they're called channelers where
- 00:09:11supposedly the spirit comes over them
- 00:09:13and then speaks through them and it's
- 00:09:14not that person
- 00:09:16anymore that's not communion Saints no
- 00:09:19one is saying Mary come and channel
- 00:09:21through me enter me and speak through
- 00:09:24me and no one's going to a grave to
- 00:09:27conjure up the spirit of the Dead to
- 00:09:29then speak through them as a channel as
- 00:09:31a witch as a medium learn the context
- 00:09:34and the historical background now coming
- 00:09:35back to the issue all right number
- 00:09:38one we are to pray for another number
- 00:09:41two the more righteous you are the more
- 00:09:44effective your prayer right oh thank you
- 00:09:47at least now you're saying okay now pray
- 00:09:49for ihart Yeshua to because this
- 00:09:52person's open to the truth may the Lord
- 00:09:54Jesus Keep softening you opening your
- 00:09:55heart destroy our pride bring you to the
- 00:09:57truth okay glory to God there open so
- 00:10:00miss quote 1 Timothy 25 I had high hopes
- 00:10:02for you that came to my mind earlier
- 00:10:04when uh before you brought up uh now I'm
- 00:10:07going to answer it because he had this
- 00:10:09in his mind now this is the one that
- 00:10:12says one meter between God and man the
- 00:10:13man Christ Jesus right yes all right if
- 00:10:17this passage means that because Christ
- 00:10:18is the one mediator we cannot mediate
- 00:10:21and intercede you just destroyed the
- 00:10:24Trinity can you tell me why wait what
- 00:10:28you just destroyed the
- 00:10:30Trinity for there is
- 00:10:33one you just destroyed the Trinity oh oh
- 00:10:38okay I I see what you mean now I see
- 00:10:39what you mean went on yes because wait
- 00:10:43the one God is who in this
- 00:10:45verse God the Father say it again the
- 00:10:49father God the father because Jesus
- 00:10:51mediates between the one God right yes
- 00:10:53yes so if Jesus being the one mediator
- 00:10:55means there are no other mediators then
- 00:10:57you just prove Jesus can't be God
- 00:10:59because the one God is the father I'm
- 00:11:01trying I'm trying to understand like my
- 00:11:03brain is not clicking it's not clicking
- 00:11:06because understand the argument because
- 00:11:08Jesus is the one mediator means there
- 00:11:10are no other mediators right right but
- 00:11:13then if you're gonna be consistent well
- 00:11:15if the one God is the father then Jesus
- 00:11:17can't be God
- 00:11:19either oh okay that see now that makes
- 00:11:21sense that makes sense now you
- 00:11:23understand that can't possibly be true
- 00:11:25right yes but Jesus is his God thank you
- 00:11:28why because we look at what the Bible
- 00:11:30says as a whole MH and though here the
- 00:11:34one God is the father other places tell
- 00:11:36us that Jesus and are one with the
- 00:11:38father so God the father being the one
- 00:11:42God is not to the exclusion of the son
- 00:11:45it's in Union with him right yes
- 00:11:48likewise when it says one mediator the
- 00:11:51context is about Paul encouraging
- 00:11:54Christians to intercede for the
- 00:11:56Salvation of people why because you have
- 00:11:58one medium Ator who makes your prayers
- 00:12:01effectual and acceptable to God so now
- 00:12:04pray for people's salvation that's the
- 00:12:07context let me show you okay okay okay
- 00:12:09okay that makes sense let me show you
- 00:12:12now but here let's see how it begins
- 00:12:15okay here's the context you
- 00:12:18ready 1 Timothy
- 00:12:2121-5 watch this is the context 1 Timothy
- 00:12:2421 1 and2 watch this is the context okay
- 00:12:28first of all then I urge that
- 00:12:30supplications prayers intercessions wait
- 00:12:34Paul is talking to Christian saying make
- 00:12:40intercession that's the context of 1
- 00:12:43Timothy 2
- 00:12:45yeah but wait isn't part of the role of
- 00:12:49a mediator to intercede uhhuh so why is
- 00:12:53Paul starting the chapter saying you
- 00:12:55Christians intercede and pray for all
- 00:12:58men
- 00:13:00when he just will go on to say well you
- 00:13:02only have one
- 00:13:06mediator because that shows you don't
- 00:13:08know how to read context what Paul is
- 00:13:11saying is you need to intercede for all
- 00:13:14people for their salvation and pray for
- 00:13:16them to be saved because God wants them
- 00:13:18to be saved and because you have one
- 00:13:20mediator who makes your prayers
- 00:13:22acceptable know that when you pray God
- 00:13:24will
- 00:13:25hear if you pray in Jesus name well that
- 00:13:29that's your mediator he's the only one
- 00:13:30who makes your prayers acceptable so him
- 00:13:33being the one mediator isn't
- 00:13:35discouraging you from interceding it's
- 00:13:37encouraging you intercede pray cry out
- 00:13:41for the Salvation of people because now
- 00:13:43you're one mediator unites you to God
- 00:13:46and makes your prayers intercession
- 00:13:48acceptable and God will answer that's
- 00:13:50the
- 00:13:52context okay that let read rest of it so
- 00:13:55you see I'm not making it up you're
- 00:13:56making you're making sense right now
- 00:13:58okay okay now let's continue reading
- 00:14:01first of all then I urge that
- 00:14:02supplications prayers intercessions
- 00:14:04thanksgivings be made for all men for
- 00:14:06kings and all who are in high positions
- 00:14:08that we may lead a quiet and peaceful
- 00:14:11life Godly respectable in every way so
- 00:14:13now why does God want all believers to
- 00:14:15intercede here's your answer God why do
- 00:14:17you want me to intercede and pray here's
- 00:14:19the answer you ready 1 Timothy
- 00:14:2421-5 this is good and is acceptable in
- 00:14:27the sight of God our savior
- 00:14:29who desires all men to be saved and to
- 00:14:31come to knowledge of the truth for there
- 00:14:33is one God and there's one meter between
- 00:14:34God and man the man Christ Jesus that's
- 00:14:36the
- 00:14:38context so what's the context telling
- 00:14:41you you cannot pray or intercede or
- 00:14:43mediate because you have one mediator or
- 00:14:46is the context the opposite the opposite
- 00:14:49pray
- 00:14:51intercede mediate for the Salvation of
- 00:14:54people knowing that God wants all people
- 00:14:57saved so when you pray intercede for
- 00:14:58their salvation that Delights God and
- 00:15:01because of Jesus your mediator he makes
- 00:15:03your prayers acceptable to God because
- 00:15:06the Bible I know it doesn't contradict
- 00:15:08itself it's always now did you
- 00:15:11understand brother yes I'm not gonna lie
- 00:15:14this uh open up like like zillion more
- 00:15:18questions but I ain't gonna take up your
- 00:15:19time because you're well I can't open a
- 00:15:21zillion more questions if number one we
- 00:15:24are to pray for one another intercede
- 00:15:26for one another number two they are
- 00:15:28perfect in heaven and the more righteous
- 00:15:30you are the more powerful your prayers
- 00:15:31right see that part I understand um what
- 00:15:35I don't understand is the
- 00:15:39rosary and well do you have hymns and
- 00:15:44songs that you sing that are not in
- 00:15:47scripture oh of course that's no not of
- 00:15:50course wait wait wait why don't you
- 00:15:52understand about the rosary when it's
- 00:15:53based on scripture if you're saying you
- 00:15:55want to find the exact form then you're
- 00:15:59being inconsistent on it's because you
- 00:16:00have a lot of songs and hymns that
- 00:16:03people came up with that are not in
- 00:16:05scripture see that's say I don't know I
- 00:16:07don't I look I got my information from
- 00:16:11Tik Tok which is why I'm here but that's
- 00:16:13what I'm trying to tell you uhuh the
- 00:16:15principle is not whether the exact
- 00:16:18prayer is found in scripture whether the
- 00:16:20prayer doesn't contradict scripture and
- 00:16:23it's faithful to the teaching of
- 00:16:25scripture and let me tell you the part
- 00:16:27of the Rosary which is scripture Hail
- 00:16:29Mary full of grace that's Luke 1
- 00:16:32128 in your translation you're going to
- 00:16:35read it's going to say hail Mary highly
- 00:16:37favored but let me show you other
- 00:16:40translations said Luke 128 L 128 here
- 00:16:44let me show it to you let's
- 00:16:47see okay let me show you here all right
- 00:16:51I'm ready go ahead go ahead Luke 128 and
- 00:16:54he came to her and said hail full of
- 00:16:55grace the Lord is with you that's Hail
- 00:16:57Mary full of grace
- 00:16:59hail full of grace the Lord is with you
- 00:17:02that's one right yeah mine says and
- 00:17:05having come in the angel said to her
- 00:17:07Rejoice highly favored one the Lord is
- 00:17:09so many I know because your Protestant
- 00:17:12Bibles uhuh being reactionary to the
- 00:17:15Catholic Church will
- 00:17:17translate many as highly favored as
- 00:17:20opposed to filled with grace that's
- 00:17:22irrelevant to the fact that this is
- 00:17:24based on scripture in other words the
- 00:17:28terms
- 00:17:29full of grace is a translation of Luke
- 00:17:35128 that's why I just showed you R
- 00:17:37Standard Version Catholic edition notice
- 00:17:40that Greek word they render full of
- 00:17:42grace because they are not reacting
- 00:17:45against the Catholic church so they're
- 00:17:47rendering it as it can be rendered
- 00:17:50filled with
- 00:17:52grace so that's one it comes from Luke 1
- 00:17:55128 Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is
- 00:17:58with thee
- 00:18:00now where do we get the Lord is with
- 00:18:01thee okay are you ready you
- 00:18:03ready uhhuh all right Luke
- 00:18:071 28 to 30 1 second and 40 to 1 second
- 00:18:11the cat needs
- 00:18:12attention all right read with me
- 00:18:17okay right there in 28 what does it say
- 00:18:20does it say Lord is with thee with you
- 00:18:23yes it does okay whether your
- 00:18:25translation says highly favored or full
- 00:18:27of grace the word many can be rendered
- 00:18:31Full of Grace So when you say Hail Mary
- 00:18:33full of grace they're citing Luke 1
- 00:18:37128 okay now when it says blessed art
- 00:18:40thou amongst women and blessed is the
- 00:18:42fruit of thy womb Jesus all right now
- 00:18:44here Luke 1 142
- 00:18:47okay all right it's on the screen again
- 00:18:49and she exclaimed with a loud cry
- 00:18:52blessed are you among woman and blessed
- 00:18:54is the fruit of your
- 00:18:56womb so the first part of the Rosary is
- 00:18:59in the New
- 00:19:01Testament now the second part holy Mary
- 00:19:04Mother of God pray for us sinners now
- 00:19:06and at the hour of our death okay is
- 00:19:09Mary
- 00:19:11holy oh now she is I mean Oh you mean on
- 00:19:14Earth she was sinful and wicked and
- 00:19:15immoral no I didn't say that don't is
- 00:19:18Mary holy yes I'll say yes so Holy Mary
- 00:19:22do you
- 00:19:23object no mother of God is she not the
- 00:19:27mother of God yeah yes so what parts of
- 00:19:31those prayer do you have a problem with
- 00:19:34the only problem you're going to have is
- 00:19:35pray for a sinners now at the hour of
- 00:19:37death but that's the debate isn't it can
- 00:19:38she pray for us or not well that's
- 00:19:41something that I have to do more
- 00:19:42research in yes and that's what I'm
- 00:19:44trying to show you those in heaven are
- 00:19:46aware of what's taking place on Earth
- 00:19:47and they
- 00:19:50pray did you know they're having Church
- 00:19:52in
- 00:19:54heaven I forgot where I read I know
- 00:19:56that's somewhere in the Bible Hebrews 12
- 00:20:0022 to 24 now you want to open up your
- 00:20:03Bible too no no no go go ahead Hebrews
- 00:20:081222 to 24 uhuh now let me ask you
- 00:20:11something what do people do in the
- 00:20:13church
- 00:20:15um do they pray for people oh yes I
- 00:20:19thought you talk they worship God they
- 00:20:20sing but do they pray for people yes
- 00:20:23okay here you go Hebrews 12:22 to 24 but
- 00:20:26you have come to Mount Zion and to the
- 00:20:28city of the Living God the heavenly
- 00:20:30Jerusalem this is heaven right yes and
- 00:20:33to innumerable angels and fesal
- 00:20:35Gathering and to the Church of the
- 00:20:37firstborn meaning the Church of those
- 00:20:39who first believe because it's plural
- 00:20:41who are who are enrolled in heaven and
- 00:20:44to a judge who is God of all and the
- 00:20:46spirits of just men made perfect and to
- 00:20:49Jesus the medeor of a New Covenant and
- 00:20:51to the sprinkled blood that speaks more
- 00:20:53graciously than the blood of Abel so
- 00:20:55they're having Church in
- 00:20:56heaven yes and those spirits who died
- 00:21:00they're in
- 00:21:01heaven yes are they
- 00:21:04perfect yes made perfect how powerful
- 00:21:07are your
- 00:21:09prayers powerful like it says in in
- 00:21:12church they pray and they're having
- 00:21:14Church in
- 00:21:15heaven they're not praying they are
- 00:21:19because at church you pray but in church
- 00:21:20you pray for the Lost Sinners
- 00:21:23right yes and you pray for your brothers
- 00:21:26sisters in Christ right yes okay so what
- 00:21:28are they doing in heaven cap
- 00:21:31dancing they're praying I mean I I would
- 00:21:35have thought I would have thought you
- 00:21:36know since they're in heaven they're in
- 00:21:37God's presence they just gonna be
- 00:21:38glorifying him all day so you
- 00:21:42mean that if they're the church and they
- 00:21:45know they're one body with us on Earth
- 00:21:47and they know the plight of Believers on
- 00:21:49Earth and Jesus tells us to love one
- 00:21:50another as he's loved us and love your
- 00:21:52neighbor as yourself and one of the ways
- 00:21:55we we love them is to pray for them so
- 00:21:57they're so busy glor find God that they
- 00:21:59forget their brothers on
- 00:22:01Earth okay that makes sense okay and if
- 00:22:04they're perfect are their prayers
- 00:22:06perfect yes and are their prayers more
- 00:22:08powerful yes and then on top of that
- 00:22:10Revelations 6:9-11 that the people are
- 00:22:13aware of what will take place on Earth
- 00:22:15and would be concerned here you go I'm G
- 00:22:17to give you a few more here you go
- 00:22:18Revelation 6:9-11 when he opened the
- 00:22:21fifth seal I saw under the altar The
- 00:22:23Souls of those who had been slain for
- 00:22:26the word of God their souls are there in
- 00:22:28the altar in heaven the bodies are not
- 00:22:31and for the witness they had borne they
- 00:22:33cried out with a loud voice oh Sovereign
- 00:22:36Lord holy and true how long before thou
- 00:22:39will judge and avenge our blood on those
- 00:22:42who dwell upon the Earth so they're
- 00:22:44concerned about the people that killed
- 00:22:46them when are you going to punish them
- 00:22:48then they were each given a white robe
- 00:22:50and told to rest a little longer until
- 00:22:53the number of their fellow servants and
- 00:22:55their Brethren should be complete or to
- 00:22:57be killed as they themselves had been
- 00:22:59Jesus has told them the
- 00:23:01future so if let me see if I understand
- 00:23:06that did you see that Jesus just told
- 00:23:07them the future that they have to rest
- 00:23:10until the last
- 00:23:12believer comes to us no the last person
- 00:23:16who's murdered then God will avenge them
- 00:23:19you're misreading it
- 00:23:21okay but did Jesus just tell them what's
- 00:23:24going to happen on Earth yes and in the
- 00:23:26future so you're just telling me Jesus
- 00:23:28made them known what's going to take
- 00:23:29place to their brothers on Earth yes and
- 00:23:32you're telling me they don't love them
- 00:23:33enough to pray for them no they do well
- 00:23:36they should he just answered the
- 00:23:37question they're praying for
- 00:23:43us that makes sense now let me give you
- 00:23:45the final one for the sake of time I did
- 00:23:47a whole series on communion Saints it's
- 00:23:49on my playlist all right I'm gonna You
- 00:23:52Know Rich Man Lazarus die yes okay watch
- 00:23:57well hold on let's see it's
- 00:24:00okay Abraham died before Moses and the
- 00:24:02prophets and their scriptures right yes
- 00:24:05okay explain this to me when the rich
- 00:24:08man looked at Abraham Lazarus and he
- 00:24:10told Abraham tell Lazarus to dip this
- 00:24:11finger in this water and cool my tongue
- 00:24:13because I'm in torment I'm almost done
- 00:24:16crystals anyway but Abraham said Son
- 00:24:19remember that you in your lifetime
- 00:24:21received your good things and L in like
- 00:24:22manner evil things how did he know how
- 00:24:24they lived on
- 00:24:26Earth how did Abraham know because he
- 00:24:28just said you in your lifetime received
- 00:24:32good things Lazarus evil things how did
- 00:24:34he know how they lived on earth God had
- 00:24:37to tell them because so you just
- 00:24:39answered your question again God makes
- 00:24:40known to them what takes place on
- 00:24:46Earth okay but wait let's go on but now
- 00:24:50he has comforted here and you are an
- 00:24:52anguish and
- 00:24:53besides between us and you a great Chasm
- 00:24:56Chasm has been fixed in order that those
- 00:25:00who would pass from here to you may not
- 00:25:02be able and none may cross from there to
- 00:25:05us watch here the rest of it Luke 16
- 00:25:0927-31 okay and he said then I beg you
- 00:25:13father to send him to my father's house
- 00:25:17for I have five brothers so that he may
- 00:25:19warn them lest they also come into this
- 00:25:21place of dor so a wicked man is
- 00:25:22concerned about his family members on
- 00:25:25Earth yes he is but believers who are
- 00:25:28perfect in love are not concerned about
- 00:25:30their brothers on
- 00:25:31Earth well they should be as well thank
- 00:25:34you but now watch this remember Abraham
- 00:25:36died before Moses
- 00:25:38and and the prophets right
- 00:25:42yes and Moses and Prophets left
- 00:25:45scriptures years after Abraham died
- 00:25:47right but now notice what Abraham knows
- 00:25:49but Abraham said they they have Moses
- 00:25:52and the prophets how did he know that
- 00:25:55how did he know what his brothers on
- 00:25:57Earth had at that time they have Moses
- 00:25:59and the
- 00:26:01prophets oh that makes so much sense let
- 00:26:05them hear them meaning read their
- 00:26:06writings and he said no Father Abraham
- 00:26:09but if someone goes to them from the
- 00:26:10dead they'll repent he said them if they
- 00:26:12do not hear Moses and the prophets
- 00:26:15neither will they be convinced if
- 00:26:17someone should rise from the dead how
- 00:26:19did Abraham know Moses and the prophets
- 00:26:21came after him left scriptures behind
- 00:26:24and that this man's Brothers had those
- 00:26:25scriptures on Earth at that moment how
- 00:26:27do you know all that well because if
- 00:26:30he's in heaven he's outside of time now
- 00:26:32no Heaven is part of time no no okay so
- 00:26:34then heav and are part of time and
- 00:26:36creation only God is outside of time
- 00:26:38okay so then God how do told them God
- 00:26:40showed him so you just established they
- 00:26:44are aware what takes place on Earth
- 00:26:46because God makes them aware they are
- 00:26:48perfect and sinless so their prayers are
- 00:26:50perfect and powerful and they're still
- 00:26:52the church one with us and still love us
- 00:26:54and you see where the church came up
- 00:26:56with oh then then they must be praying
- 00:26:57for us
- 00:26:59yes okay that makes sense end up story
- 00:27:03brother that's
- 00:27:04it and Jesus said they're not dead oh
- 00:27:07they're dead no Luke 20 3738 he says
- 00:27:11they're not dead they're all alive to
- 00:27:13them here let me show you so oh they're
- 00:27:14dead that means Jesus is lying and that
- 00:27:17means you're a blasphemy because Jesus
- 00:27:18can't lie you said what I'm gonna give
- 00:27:22it to you hold on Sir okay you're so
- 00:27:24excited man you're so excited Luke 20
- 00:27:273738
- 00:27:29he says they're not
- 00:27:31dead there you go on the screen but the
- 00:27:35dead that the dead are raised even Moses
- 00:27:37showed in the passage about the bush
- 00:27:40where he calls the Lord the god of
- 00:27:41Abraham the god of Isaac God of Jacob
- 00:27:42now he is not the god of the dead but of
- 00:27:45the living for all live to
- 00:27:49him so I dare you say Abraham is dead
- 00:27:52when Jesus says no he's alive but now
- 00:27:54watch here 49 to
- 00:27:5753 John 8:49 to 53 so that's it man you
- 00:28:00got your case now it's up to you whether
- 00:28:02you want to believe it or not John 8:
- 00:28:0449-53 Jesus answered I am not a demon
- 00:28:08but I honor my father and you dishonor
- 00:28:10me yet I do not seek my own Glory there
- 00:28:12is one who seeks it and he will be the
- 00:28:14judge truly truly I say to you if anyone
- 00:28:17keeps my word he will never see death I
- 00:28:20dare you to tell me he's lying that Mary
- 00:28:21is dead say Mary is dead why would I say
- 00:28:24that this exactly because you can't you
- 00:28:27know you can't right called eternal life
- 00:28:29they shall never perish all right the
- 00:28:32Jews said to him now we know that you
- 00:28:33have a demon Abraham died and did the
- 00:28:36prophets and you say if anyone keeps my
- 00:28:38word he will never taste death are you
- 00:28:41greater than our Father Abraham who died
- 00:28:43and the prophets died who do you claim
- 00:28:44to be now the final one John 11:25-26
- 00:28:51so that's it that's where we get the
- 00:28:54community of saints their intercession
- 00:28:56and the intercession of the Blessed
- 00:28:57Mother I'm done right after this Andreas
- 00:28:59right after this John
- 00:29:0111:25 to 26 Jesus said to her I am the
- 00:29:05resurrection and the life he who
- 00:29:08believes in me though he die yet shall
- 00:29:09he live and whoever lives and Believes
- 00:29:11In Me shall never die do you believe
- 00:29:13this so Peter James John Paul Mary all
- 00:29:18believed in Christ are they dead or are
- 00:29:20they still alive they're alive end of
- 00:29:22story what's what do you got left buddy
- 00:29:24now go watch my series on communion of
- 00:29:27saints
- 00:29:28but that's it man now if you want to
- 00:29:30still not believe it that's between you
- 00:29:31and God man oh no no no I I believe it
- 00:29:35like it everything made perfect sense
- 00:29:38it's not like it didn't make any sense
- 00:29:40yeah like how some people that's why we
- 00:29:42get offended when people say we're we're
- 00:29:46speaking to dead people that's a
- 00:29:48blasphemy because J says they're not
- 00:29:50dead we're worshiping them that's
- 00:29:51blasphemy we're not worshiping them and
- 00:29:54there's one mediator as if we don't know
- 00:29:55those passages this why I get angry
- 00:29:58where does the worship thing come from
- 00:30:00that's my that's literally my last in
- 00:30:02their stupidity they think if I ask Mary
- 00:30:05to pray for me that's worship no it's
- 00:30:07not asking is not worship it's not
- 00:30:10idolatry either no I've gone through
- 00:30:13series teaching that's that's garbage
- 00:30:15but I hope that answered you brother
- 00:30:16because yes not that I want to cut you
