Thank you for the clarification Father. Bang on!!🙏

Good Homily Father, sounds like I on on my way to Purgatory. Predestination is not something I follow but I get what you mean. I wish you and all peoples a Happy Easter the Lord has risen and we will as well I seriously believe that. I will ask Jesus to help me not drift off in Mass.😊

@Cindy Maureen Mc Amen dear Cindy💜! It is one of Father Mark's best, ever. :):):)🔥💜🔥

@Cindy Maureen Mc It was so nice to "see" you and June at Mass today...I could really feel the fire of His love through our love!❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Well done father

Try the traditional 40 hour fast from Holy Thursday 8pm until noon Saturday. Feed yourself with prayer. "Some demons can only be driven out with fasting and prayer"

Praying

same here as well.

​@Maria Martin thank you Maria, great advice! I look to do it.

praying for you. I plan the 40 hr fast as well. We all struggle with sin. Know you aren't alone! 🙂🙏🙂

There is no purgatory....catholics made it up for scare tactics. Being saved is all that matters. NO works can save you. It is a FREE gift from God....accept it and save your soul.

​​@@theadster2702 ahahahah I guess you want to keep sining over over again. I feel sorry for you. Bible talks about purgatory. Jesus says "none will get out unless you have paid your last penny, also Jesus says "you will be cleansed with fire before entering kingdom of heaven". You want the easy way out eh? I will keep you in my prayers my friend. You have been deceived by satan

Though we must keep trying to bypass Purgatory and go straight to our Heavenly Father. As Christ showed St. Faustina... how to go straight to heaven (go to confession, pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet/Novena during Easter week). Divine Mercy wipes all sin, even mortal. ¡Que Viva Christo Rey!

@@theadster2702 When people say you need to be saved, what exactly is that? You think all the good people out there who are confused about God and what to believe just go strait to Hell because they don't get Baptized? Let Jesus decide what happens to people when they die. No one is perfect which is why he had to die for us in the first place. The only reason we get a second chance is because of what he did for us. People talk too much about Damnation instead of God's Mercy.

Evangelization of everything about Catholic teachings is the key.

...and sometimes tears...🌴🙏

Amen Sandra! God bless you!💜🙏

You catholics have a religious truth , but NOT The Truth !

There is no such thing as catholic truth....it is lies.

Keep reading the old testament! The more you study the mass, particularly the tridentine mass, you'll notice an uncanny number of parallels. Psalm 21 is a great example

@@isrberlinerin4063 Flase!

@@brandon6896 Fool !

This is full of lies. There is no purgatory. Find it in the bible...NOPE not there. it amazes me how much he lies in this sermon.

@@theadster2702 Luke 16:9 to Luke 16:31

Maybe you don’t see it there, but that doesn’t mean it’s not there..

@@epicmeow7688 Who are you answering? See what...where??? If you are talking about purgatory...it is NOT there. Christ, alone...paid the penalty for sin. You, I or any saint or pope or priest cannot pay the price of sin. ONLY Christ...and HE paid a hefty price for it. HE had a horrible death and dying on the cross...by thinking we can go to purgatory to work off some sins is belittling that death and dying on the cross. Jesus last words were.."IT IS FINISHED."

The wisdom of the 😇 innocent!

Amen ❤️❤️❤️

Please don't ask any dead Saint to pray for you or pray to them or any prophets , or with any rosary. JESUS is the only mediator : We are constructed not to consult the dead Deuteronomy 18:10-13 King James Version 10 There shall not be found among you any one that .....or a consulter with familiar spirits (the spirit of a dead person invoked by a medium to advise or prophesy) , or a wizard, or a necromancer. 12 For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord: and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee. King James Bible 1 Timiothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus Also only worship God alone, not the pope, any saint or mary, that is commting the great sin of idolatry. Exodus 20:3-6 King James Version 3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. Please repent! If you were to die today, are you a 100% sure you will go to heaven? If no, here is what the bible says, (1) Romans 3:23 KJV [23] For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. Q1. Do you know what Sin is? Sin is anything bad that we have done. Q2. Have you sinned before? Yes or No? (2) Revelation 21:8 KJV [8] But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Because they have sinned, and God does not allow Sin into Heaven, the punishment is burning hell. What is the way to reconcile our peace and relationship with God? Q3. Do you know the Story of Jesus? (3) Romans 5:8 KJV [8] But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Jesus = God who lived up in Heaven, but he came down on earth and became a man like us, he lived for 33.5 years without committing any sin. Then there were certain people who were jealous and therefore framed him on phony charges, and crucified him. Then he was buried and resurrected on the third day; Now he lives in HEAVEN. Q4. Do you know why Jesus went through all this bloody mess for us? A4. As mentioned, our sin is the reason why we can’t go to heaven, and the only thing that can wash away our sin is the Blood of Jesus. (4) Romans 5:9 KJV [9] Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. According to the bible, the only way for us to reconcile with God is through Christ Jesus’s blood, and not through any works that we do or merits we accumulate, such as water baptism, attending church, or any good thing that we do. The following verses clearly support this. (5) Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV [8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. (6) 2 Corinthians 7:10 KJV [10] For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. In order to get saved, repentance of one’s sin is needed to get saved, we need to be sorry, and repent, with conviction, that we are a wretched sinner. (7) Romans 10:9 KJV [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. If you truly do believe in everything you have heard in the gospel, ,I strongly suggest you to make a proclamation to GOD! You can say it to God in less than 15 seconds !Repeat after this simple prayer, to make sure you truly get saved. Remember repeating this prayer doesn't save you, it's you telling God you BELIEVE THE GOSPEL. Ok, here is the prayer : ‘Dear GOD, I know I am a sinner, as I repent, I put my faith, that Jesus is GOD, and that he died, buried and resurrected, so that his blood, can wash away my Sins. I put my faith in that alone to save me, not my good works. In Jesus’s holy name, I pray. Amen! Congratulations ! Now you are a child of God. Download /Buy a KJV bible (I highly suggest getting a hard copy bible , as one day, it will be illegal to buy, own or even have an online version of the bible) and search for youtube channel like REAL Bible Believers , Spencer Smith to help you grow , study dispensationalism to understand the bible ( How do we reconcile the verses in the New Testament that tell us that we need works to show our faith, and another that tells us that nothing that can take our salvation away? That's why we need to study biblical dispensationalism to rightly divide the word of God.( study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth, 2 Timithy 2:15) (I recommend the dispensationalism video from Genesis to Revelations by Dr. Gene Kim, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fa9kdteWqqzcf58.html) , join a bible believing church. God bless you brother/ sister ☺. See you in heaven one day!

As a Catholic and member of the Body of Christ, I say that the Savior loves you most dearly and you are in His sight, always. May your heart be consoled in His mercy

@@lslmadi quit it. Just love the Lord and don't trouble yourself with the blasphemy that you're involved in. Come home to the Church of Jesus, not the church of a protester.

Amen 🌷🌷🌷 God bless you Lara! ❤️

Would a loving father abuse and torment his children? It seems guilt, pain and suffering are all your God is capable of giving, twisting your mind into actually desiring and loving the abuse. Is Christianity about christ or an obsession with eternal pain. Like the abused housewife who runs back to her wicked husband time after time, Christianity calls for us to return again and again to the hand that holds the bloodied whip, to receive punishment and abuse and torment from a "loving" God again and again for no purpose other than pain and guilt.

@@Mantis-ti5ve who said anything about desiring or loving pain. We have a choice about everything. Either we accept lifes crosses and move on or let them bury us. Life is short but it can be excruciatingly long if we chose to live it in misery. Choice. That's what this is about, not loving pain.

​@@purringinthedesert6737 Can you tell me why can't a lay person be a eucharistic minister?

Yes I find it's because they have nothing to say. Very few good ones left

@@vivelder8420 True Viv, were lucky we live in a time with the internet where we can see all sorts of interesting people like Fr. Mark that we otherwise wouldn't have access to. My previous spiritual advisor is an exorcist, but has been too busy because of his duties.

@@DoughRoller-mx2br again, yes. Few good priests makes them in demand. At least this way we can find good content. And keep apprised of current events so we know what we are up against. 🙏👍

I have had many priests who are hard to follow. Despite that, the mass is still the star. The priest is merely the host. So when people say I don’t get anything out of mass, my question is what do you contribute? If the homily is how the mass is gauged, imo you need a faith adjustment. Even a bad priest brings Jesus to the altar. I’m truly not trying to be ugly, but just something to consider. 🙏🏻🕊️

@@dopeyrn1 I get what your saying, people have many definitions on what the virtue give them, but I think when Jesus gives us graces, they effect us in different ways. My thing is about mass is that if I feel like Jesus is in the room with me when I hear a homily, then I feel engaged. That's why we go in the first place. The Catholic faith is nothing without Jesus, and some days, even though God is always there for us, we just can't connect with him, were like radios, all we can do is try our best to treat each other right and live the way he would want us to.

💜🙏

Boy...I am to hear you are a catholic. Why didn't you just be a straight up born Again Christian....pure give me Jesus? follow the truths that are spelled out in the bible. Do you really believe there is a purgatory????....WEll no there is not. please reconsider...it is your soul we are talking about!!!! Jesus will soon return.

1 Corinthians 3:11-15 speaks of PURGATORY in the Bible

@@donzioldbuddy mmm....Please explain how this speaks of purgatory?...I don't see it....enlighten me. Be careful in stretching truths and interpreting scripture.

Maybe you had a fever coming on? The rosary has no power...it is just a bunch of remote words that glorify Mary. Mary was a woman who was a perfect example of someone following the will of God. Mary should not be prayed to...she is dead. She has NO Powers. The bible tells us of NOT praying to the dead.....IN FACT, it HIGHLY prohibits it. Please read your Bible to hear of the truths. Mark spoke of purgatory...there is no purgatory. Jesus is soon to return....find out the truths or you will be left behind.

Pray for me Andrew. I try to recite the rosary everyday but always find myself distracted by the things of life. I manage the rosary but wish I could pray it better.

@@roddycavin4600 Prayer is speaking to God...directly. You do not need to pray remote control words...Jesus wants to hear from YOU from your heart...not mindless repetition . The rosary is false, it gives all glory to Mary. All glory and honor goes to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Mary is dead and we must NOT pray to the dead. Pray heartfelt prayers to Jesus, he will calm your mind and your heart.

@@theadster2702 the rosary is reciting and meditating on scripture. The rosary doesn't give all glory to Mary. Your answer shows you don't know the rosary. Are you saying scripture is false?

@@theadster2702 so when Jesus taught us the Lord's prayer was he teaching us remote control words?

How can your faith deepen ...when he speaks of purgatory....THERE IS NO PURGATORY. Catholics made it up to keep you under the thumb of their rule.

God bless you and thank you for sharing Kathleen! Grace and peace to you 🌴💜🙏

Kathleen....Mary could not have come to you. She could never have spoken to you.....she is dead...just like your great grandparents. You must of hallucinated by being in prayer. You can feel the presents and peace of the Lord after you pray....but not Mary. Jesus does not talk to people. Beware satan is the master of trickery...read the bible for the truths.

Jesus will judge us as we judge others, so if you judge kindly he most certainly will judge you kindly. God bless.

I think his point was that it’s a red flag if we hate being around the worship of God in general. I have a problem with the implication that our feelings indicate the state of our souls. Don’t we all have times when we just don’t feel like going to mass but we go anyway out of love for and need of the Lord?

Well that verse in Corinthians only makes sense by a cleansing in purgatory as Verse 13 says:”the DAY” will reveal it. That’s temporal judgement. Otherwise your post sounds very Protestant
