What about people who are monogamous and Christian ? They're bad because they were born gay even if they're Christian? I think it's a good think a large majority of people in the Western World disagree with people like you - including many Christians and indeed many Catholics.

Shut up you Bible thumper 😂

sillest saying, without the sinner there is no sin. All I see is watered down Catholicism, Catholics have never supported sodomy.

The issue is judgmental people say: “Hate the sin and not the sinner”? Easy to say, never applied. Are you sinless? “For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God”. How wreck-less & condescending you are to assume “that they are your Sacrament’s”. They are the Sacraments of the Lord! By your measure you have excluded yourself. Surely you understand that you are not worthy to receive the Lord in the Sacrament of Holy Communion? Does God always heal someone instantly? Perhaps a Huge banner over the doors saying: No Sinners Allowed! That applies to you too!

LGBTQ is sin.

​@CiggyStardust what pride do u have in that flag?

I’m a fan of the show myself. I do feel like maybe they could have edited it out, but I see a lot of Protestant fans of the show being super critical of everything happening. This was Dallas’s second or third video and it said the same points. Watch next they’ll complain if Jonathan’s Rosary gets shown.

Maybe it's such a good tool that demons and evil people are trying to find ways to infiltrate it with smiles.

I think the director should have fired all involved immediately. Including the actors with the horrendous twitter reactions.

@@davidcole333 Dallas isn’t the type to fire anyone. He just had the actor for St Phillip leave the show.

The fact that actors can say lgbt-critics are 'not christlike' when Christ explicitly taught that marriage is between one man and one woman, is the height of irony. I've stopped watching them now and won't be giving them any more money.

And unacceptable

I agree the left are hypocrites. Barack Obama. After two years after his presidency adorned tens of millions of dollars. Speaking engagements book deals whatever. But when he spoke at the Nelson Mandela reunions in South Africa he said. We need to do something about this unbridled capitalism. Tens of millions of dollars in 2 years sounds a little unbridled to me. The left's motto should be do-as-i-say-not-as-i-do. Hippocrates

Thin skinned sinners filled with shame, need approval at every turn. Sin. Bear the consequences quietly. Impossible. They Know they are swimming against the current. So they need you to approve. If you won't approve, it is hate to them. If you approve it is submission, to THEIR will.

Confederate flag are for losers. I do not support it.

Will you be silencing women in church, as Paul wrote as well? Also, there was no word for "practicing homosexual" in Greek. Either your translation is lying or you are. Because the "numerous" times the message you're paraphrasing is given is exactly one time. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10. "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor sexual perverts, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God." That's a pretty broad swath of humanity. Hope you're a teetotaler! Let's be honest. We don't get to project meaning onto Bible verses, or even insert words that aren't present, to suit our own prejudices. We don't get to ignore the example that Jesus gave when dealing with sinners. We don't get to ignore the social teaching of the Church.

@@drstewart I’m not Catholic, but you’re setting up a straw man. The Catholic Church ordains men only based on that scripture, not women, so they are obeying that command from Paul. Also, just because the word is not in the Bible does not mean that the practice is not described. That is poor logic to make that argument. Historically, throughout the commentaries written by the church fathers in the first century or so after the apostles, they described the Greek word as one who practices sodomy. They did not have a word for the orientation, but they did describe and condemn the action as sin, as they condemned all sexual activity outside of a marriage between one man and one woman as sin. The cases in the Old Testament where people are polygamous are descriptive, not prescriptive, and they always caused more problems for the person involved. So the teaching of the faith and of Scripture on sexuality is consistent and has always been. And that’s coming from a Protestant.

@@samueljennings4809 As a Protestant, is it good practice to insert words that do not appear in authoritative manuscripts? Your logic is flawed here, because yes, a word that is not present to describe an action by definition does not describe an action. Which is why when Jesus uses a word implying chewing in regards to His body, we don't get to interpret it as a mere symbol. We don't get to add in, substitute or delete words for what we think it means. Translations of the actual words used indicate things such as "effeminate" (malakós) or in the RSV referenced above "sexual perverts". The latter is a phase that more broadly represents arsenokoítēs which is interpreted as a sexual act between men. Neither of these things equate to "practicing homosexual". This wasn't even a concept at the time the Epistles were written. So yes, it is wrong to quote things from the Bible that are not there. It's wrong to misrepresent what the text says. In other words, it's wrong to lie. Hardly a strawman to examine a text with integrity, but tell yourself whatever you like to justify your position "as a Protestant." Oh, and since I had to edit a typo, might as well address something else. The Church does not ordain men only based on 1 Corinthians 14:34-35. That is factually incorrect. The Church's justification for the ordination of men only is that based on Biblical accounts, there were no women called as part of the 12 Apostles (Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 1577 ), as well as Sacred Tradition and practice of the early Apostolic Church.

My line is usually "sodomy is not a virute"...not quite as damning a warning as St Paul's but it def ruffles feathers all the same 😅

@@drstewart So you're saying that homosexuality wasn't forbidden by God?

Pretty much. And it's becoming more and more explicit that "Pride" is a popularized form of Satanism.

BUT 95% of roman doctrines are Not from traditions of Jesus or Apostles or Scriptures; neither practised by the Church of the Bible.

@@mitchellosmer1293 Hi Mitchellosmer1293, The Catholic belief in the unity of the Church is rooted in passages like Ephesians 4:4-6, which emphasize the oneness of the faith, the Spirit, and the Lord. This understanding aligns with our common desire for unity among believers. Remember, Jesus prayed that we may be one as He and the Father are one. Yes, we acknowledge the existence of local churches as integral expressions of the Body of Christ, but we also maintain that these local communities are united in their shared faith, doctrine, and sacraments. The term "church" in the NT is used in various ways-to describe both the universal Body of Christ and local assemblies. This dual usage doesn't negate the unity of the Church; rather, it reflects the organic relationship between the whole Church and its individual parts. The Catholic Church's hierarchical structure, with the Pope at its head, was established by Christ to preserve this unity and prevent doctrinal divisions. When we say that the Roman Church is the "First Church," we have to recognize the connection between Peter and the leadership of the early Christian community. Just as Jesus referred to Peter as the "rock" upon which He would build His Church (Matthew 16:18), it's reasonable to understand that this unique role would extend to the Church in Rome due to Peter's presence there. This is just how they would have seen their relationship with Peter. So although the Jerusalem Church no doubt holds immense historical and spiritual significance, the role of Peter as a central figure in the early Church simply cannot be overlooked. Understanding this doesn't take away from the importance of other local churches or the universal Body of Christ. Instead, it reflects the biblical concept of apostolic authority and continuity, with the Roman Church inheriting a special leadership role through its connection to Peter... does that makes sense?

Candidates needed to have been with Jesus during the whole three years that Jesus was among them. That is, he needed to be an eyewitness of Jesus’ baptism when the Heavenly Father validated Jesus’ person and work. He needed to have heard Jesus’ life-changing teachings and been present to see His healings and other miracles. He needed to have witnessed Jesus sacrifice Himself on the cross and to have seen Jesus walk, talk, and eat among the disciples again after His resurrection. These were the pivotal facts of Jesus’ life, the heart of the message they were to teach, and personal witnesses were required to verify the truth of the good news. --So, tell me, who after John met those qualifications????? ------THERE is NO ONE in the Church of God called "Pope"!!!

Hey Mitchell, while I appreciate your focus on the Scriptural basis, we have to keep in mind that the Bible doesn't explicitly state that the Bible alone is our infallible source for Christian doctrine. Rather, it's important to recognize that even the formation of the canon we hold today wasn't given to us in isolation. The coherence of the canon emerged through the thorough examination of the early Church. This recognition prompts us to consider a thought-provoking scenario: if two Christians disagreed on the canon, whose inner judgment would serve as the arbiter, identifying the true canon? It becomes evident that the Church founded by Christ uniquely possessed the authority and divine guidance to discern the Old Testament canon. Sure, church Fathers proposed differing canons during the centuries following the close of written revelation in the early second century. The complexity deepens as we observe that, despite being faithful and Spirit-filled individuals in close proximity to the apostolic era, they presented differing canons. This divergence persisted until nearly A.D. 400 when the canon was finally settled, encompassing the seventy-three books of the Catholic Bible. Luther tried to omit four New Testament books, demonstrating the learned differ about the "self-authenticated" canon. However, even the Bible supports sacred tradition, as underscored in 2 Thessalonians 2:15. Here the Apostle Paul encourages us to preserve teachings through both oral and written forms aligns with the Catholic perspective. The interplay between Scripture and tradition paints a more comprehensive picture of the faith, one that acknowledges the invaluable guidance of the Church Christ founded. Either way, I'm not sure about your history with the Catholic Church, but I will be praying for you brother that you find peace in your heart first and foremost. I pray that you will be a joyful Christian, and keep an honest and humble attitude in your journey towards the Sacred Heart of Jesus. God bless you! @@mitchellosmer1293

_"Jesus taught us to Love..."_ Have you told your mother that you hate her and have you abandoned all of your possessions as your savior has commanded you to do? Jesus will only grant you everlasting life if you hate your mother, abandon your family, and give up all of your possessions- Luke 14:26-27 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters - yes, even his own life - he cannot be my disciple." Matthew 10:34-37 "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law - a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household." Matthew 19:29 "And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life." Luke 14:33 “…therefore, none of you can become my disciple if you do not give up all your possessions." Jesus also says disobedient children must be killed as required by Old Testament law: Mark 7:9-10 "And he said to them, “You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God in order to establish your tradition! For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’, and ‘Whoever reviles father or mother must surely die.’" (See Ex 21:15, Lev 20:9, Dt 21:18-21) Matthew 5:40 Do not defend yourself in court- "And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well." Cannibalism is an integral part of Christianity. John 6:53 "Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever gnaws my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in him. On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is a difficult and harsh and offensive statement. Who can accept it?" From this time, many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him." Jesus approves of slavery too- Matthew 8:5 "When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. “Lord,” he said, my servant lies at home paralyzed, suffering terribly.” Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?” The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed." Jesus' parables approving of slavery and beating slaves. Luke 12:46-47 "The lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will cut him in sunder, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes." Luke 17:7-9 "But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat? And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink? Doth he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not."

Didn't the director say it was the personal equipment of one of the staff? Gonna play devil's advocate here.

​@@Tzimiskes3506 He did. I don't think the devil's advocate is going to convince God.

@@phillipcummings3518 True but what did you think they should've done to the person with the pride flag?

@@Tzimiskes3506 I would have fired him for putting our show at risk at alienating out base and more important to me, disrespecting God. Keep you're anti God sentiments at home/ off this Christian set. Why are you ignoring the actors responses to people? The actors actions against fans are even worse.

@@phillipcummings3518 brother, i agree with everything you said. But wouldn't firing that staff also justify those people in positions of power at workplaces to fire Christian workers?

Thank you for your support! -Vanessa

I am glad you lost and you all hated Catholics too. The flag was hijacked by racists and their cause. The NAZIS stole symbols from India and hijacked it to mean hatred and racism too. The flag might have been from humble times but, pure Southern racists hijacked it and turned it into a symbol of division and hatred.

It is rather odd to evaluate the value of a production based on the behavior of the people making it.

@@Grokford I wouldn't say it's odd, but I agree the final product should be judged on the product itself, although I would not at all be surprised if it is heavily influenced by the people working on the production.

This is what we strive for. -Kyle

No you -Kyle

I hope you're being sarcastic, but just in case you're not, no.

🤔

For anyone who reads this and wonders (because I assume the comment is sarcastic), the answer is no because affirming someone and celebrating their sinful lifestyle isn't loving.

I love this comment. 😂 I also love how we have to reiterate “no” because in this day in age… we just have to. 😢

This is exactly what there doing.

It's up to the people to speak up, not the bishops

I think he's worse than Luther

Ignorant bigots unite!!!
