@VUPdingCLICK Prayers are requests for help, not acts of worship. Should we not ask our friends for help to fix our car or build our shed? Of course we should. And just as we should ask our friends for help so we may ask angels and saints for their help as well.
@fishintheflow no,you dont pray to anyone else or bypass GOD. ....to the FATHER through the SON......having asked YHWH,HE - and only HE will decide if you are praying for the RIGHT THING - then send help as required.holy angels would only make a move after receiving permission.....beware any 'angels' or 'saints' responding to these prayers are who they say they are....
He's watching over myself and all others in times of true danger. He's the blanket protecting that which is good. So many evil-doers knocking at our door around us. St. Michael has EASILY been the reason by the power of God and his son Jesus Christ? It's why I'm still alive, and my small humble ministry, the only bastion of hope for so many where I am? We're still thriving!
If you pray to a saint, you turn him into a pseudo god. There is only One true God, His son is Jesus Christ the only name on Earth that can save a soul!!!
Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the malice and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen
Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio, contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto præsidium. Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur: tuque, princeps milítiæ cælestis, Satanam aliosque spiritus malignos, qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo, divina virtute, in infernum detrude. Amen
If all the works you SO CALLED CHRISTIANS do is ignore the poor, bully the different and hate all the time?
That's not Christ you're following. That's Satan. And Satan is laughing his freakin ass off that he's got you doing his work with Christ as the cause.
Reikki, ancient gods, unicorns, angel worshipping, wiccaa, orbs belong to the occult (holy angels have nothing to do with this) and are dangerous because they teach to worship the self as Gods and only distract and mislead away from God. You don't need an indirect way to God but a direct way. May God let do the healing. May God bless you to see this.
And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers the prophets and of all who keep the words of this book. Worship God!" (Revelation 22:8-9). Only worship God or Jesus! Angels don't want worship, they are humble to the Lord. They only want you to give all your praises to Him. Jesus is the only way to life. That is the Word.
With all due respect. We can not worship holy angels. Only fallen angels want this. "Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only" (Matthew 4:10). "At this I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy" (Revelation 19:10: 22:9). "I John, am the one who heard and saw these things.
Well prayer to angels like I said is not necessary to. Prayer is almost worship there's an overlap. Prayer is a part or form of worship. Prayer can go into worship or vica versa. So it's dangerous since praying to angels leads you from your direct prayer to God. So just pray to God. Every prayer has to go through Him :) I don't agree with the catholic rules also that you should pray to saints. Never worship man or any other creature. Bible never mentions that. Only pray to God.
@royalsteven Where does the Bible say to "only PRAY to God"? Prayer is a form of spiritual communication, nothing more. I think of it as a telephone, with the Holy Spirit as a conduit. We can use prayer for worship but we can also use it for supplication, contrition, and thanksgiving. Catholics respect and venerate the Saints and Angels, we ask them for help the same way we ask fellow Christians here on Earth for help, but we don't worship them.
About God, Matthew 6:6-9, But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father....This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven". (John 14:13-14), And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. About angels, (Timothy 2:5-6): “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus'. (Revelation 22:8-9), I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them,
I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. But he said to me, “Do not do it!. There's is only one way to the Father and that is Jesus, everything has to go through Him. Jesus told many times and instructed his disciples/followers to pray to God, to the Father only. He prayed only to Him. Angels can not sanctify us, glorify us, and can not guarantee our inheritance in Christ (Ephesians 1:13-14). Only the Son and Holy Spirit can intercede before the Father's
@royalsteven I think you're reading things into that first passage that aren't there. If you're saying that you should ONLY pray to the Father do you also ONLY pray in your room and ONLY pray the Our Father prayer?
I agree that Jesus is the mediator between God and Humanity... BUT... have you ever in your entire life asked another Christian to pray for you? That doesn't take the place of Jesus as the mediator so why would it do so just because the other Christian is in Heaven instead of Earth?
@vashsunglasses. The living saints on earth can pray for each other, bcuz they pray in Jesus' name only, They dont ask a saint in heaven to intercede their prayers by giving them to the Lord. When the living on earth prays to someone else in heaven or hell that is idolatry. The RCC runs rampant with idolatry. Matt 6:8 says the Father knows our needs and prayers before we ask. The ones in heaven dont have a clue what our needs or prayers are. Praying to people in heaven is idolatry.
throne. Angels are not omnipresent or omnipotent and are not qualified to receive our continous prayers like God can. Prayer to the Father through Christ is the only necessary and effective means by which we can communicate with the Father. Praying to angels is not a biblical concept :)
@royalsteven U have to a point...is it true that the Vatican a room with thousands of statues of Mary that they pray to? I am just asking...if true this is worshiping...our emaculate Lady..Jesus said "son behold your mother & mother behold your son" He signified he is no longer the son of Mary as he had accomplished his mission for that time as in human flesh..now He then gives Mary to cont. to be a mother on earth, to receive respect by a son & to take and to have a son to love...am I right...?
I am sure the vatican worships more materialism and statues than the true God. You have to respect Maria but she is not above God, God made us all. Christ said pray to the Father only. Only God can give salvation. You need to let His Holy Spirit do all the work in you. Not angels or Mary. I do not agree with a lot of catholic saints worshipping. Jesus said do not worship idols, false prophets, or any other gods then God. You cannot pray to saints or angels because they are never above God.
@royalsteven. Amen!!! The RCC says they dont pray to or worship the saints in heaven or Mary, but they do. They listen to the pope instead of really reading the bible.
Yes, not only read the bible but understand it. Not only listen to what man says, but what Christ says. Do not twist the Word or pull it out of context. But read the whole story. Do not put your faith in the material (world and man) but in God and His words. If you don't understand ask God. God bless you!
@royalsteven What's the "TRUE GOD"? You mean the ones Evangelical Christians twist and worship? The one that says if you divorce and remarry you're an adulterer? You mean THAT GOD?
Jesus said "Do not worship Idols"? When did you determine that saints are idols? Jesus also said "Love one another as I have loved you"
Yet you Evangelicals are the "GOD HATES FAGS" crowd spewing hate.
You guys have to really look what "Jesus" you're worshipping. It's certainly not the risen one.
@GuardianAngel5150 You know the Risen Jesus who's best friend was a prostitute in Mary Magdelene. You know the Risen Jesus who forgave that thief on the cross.
Problem with contemporary Christians is they love to spout verses of the bible, and they love to judge.
Soo many have forgotten that Jesus ENTIRE MINISTRY? Was accepting those in society that were shunned. If the RISEN CHRIST were alive today in the flesh? Protestants, Evangelicals would be the first to want to crucify him!
I am not your regular kind of christian. I am a believer (close to the Messianic Judaism who believe in Christ and in the original bible Tanakh). I also do not believe in the ultimate sacrifice and taking of sins on the cross concept. Jesus never said that He was going to die for our sins. He was deceived by Judas for money, persecuted and killed by evil men. And the oldest original Greek bible New Testament scriptures testify this. By the way you say don´t judge but you are judging non stop :D
Jesus talked about His death all the time, for ex. when He said that He would tear down the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days, He was talking about His body. And He did rise on the third day. Even I have seen Him many times. Once in the flesh (with my own eyes) and the other times in visions. You can too if you receive Holy Spirit, He is the one who enables us to see the spiritual dimension. His follower for 36 years now, content every second now. Read Power New Testament!!
That is cool you seen Yeshua. I seen Him in my dreams. SInce I did my belief is bigger. Yes, Yeshua talk about he was going to die but not for others sins. Let me give one example how new bible translations take words/meanings out of concept. In the original Peshitta Aramaic Testament Yeshua says "This is the cup of the new covenant IN my blood wich is shed for you". In English bible it says "MY Blood". See this one word IN makes big difference in meaning. Read ancient texts yourself to know.
Well there´s always something new to learn not? We should learn and require (new) wisdom everyday. I find something new in the bible everyday. A different way of looking or understanding things. Thanks for the suggestion but I do not really read Greek testament. I read Tanakh and Aramaic Peshitta. They are closer and more original to me to the Word. I have done bible history research so that would be my suggestions.
How did you see Yeshua in flesh? That happens rarely to people. Did you know God is not His original name? His true names are Ehyeh (I AM), YHWH and Elohim. God, Christ and Jesus (of Greek name Iesous) names given by us by Greeks not Hebrews. They are nowhere found in the original bible. We should only use their real names. YAHU'SHUAH (Yeshua) and Ehyeh (I AM). The only way you find this out is to read and study the ancient texts (Peshitta, Tanakh and Dead Sea Scrolls etc). Wich NT you mean?
You are assuming a lot of things wich aren´t true. I do not hate anyone, I preach love and peace. God is loving and doesn´t do evil things. I believe in turning the other cheeks. Do not generalize, we are all individuals. Mary was not a prostitute, the church made her that. She was one of Jesus' most devote disciples wich the church didn´t bother to tell you neither. What others do is not of my concern. But of God´s. And I respect your views. God loves you. Peace and happy easter!

Why bother praying at all when it does absolutely nothing to benefit you??? It echoes off the walls and does nothing but make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside but in reality is a joke of the highest degree. You look like a fool who has no pity and self control and think that something higher than yourself can help you. Just shows how weak minded and weak in life you really are.....
@lawtonokieguy Does it make you feel superior to look down on people who pray? Must be nice for the ego to be able to sneer down on the majority of humanity from such a lofty perch.
@lawtonokieguy You do like making assumptions about me, don't you? You're the one who showed up uninvited and attacked me. Don't think you can turn around and point the finger at me as if I'm the one to blame.
@vashsunglasses You are the one to blame cause for the simple fact you made an ignorant youtube video no one in their right mind should care about.....let alone watch......I mean you seriously think that "st michael" is really going to swoop down from the clouds and banish every evil thing from your life......get real......
@lawtonokieguy You keep throwing insults in my direction as if you hope that you can somehow change my mind simply by calling me names enough. It comes across as a rather desperate and immature tactic. You're so keen on logic, why don't you try using it? Leave the schoolyard tactics to children.
Why do you have such intense reaction to this video??? why your rage ?
Something about this peaceful video must have touched a chord in you, for you to have such an angry reaction . You have your own opinions, and you;re entitled to them. Just leave other people have them, don't try to belittle them as if you were the owner of the truth, or as if your beliefs, opinions were true. Believe whatever you want, but don't resort to insults against people who disagree with you.
@lawtonokieguy. Point well taken. Amen!!! The RCC can't seem to understand that Jesus is the only Mediator, and the Holy Spirit gives us the strength to believe and trust in Jesus' blood sacrifice. We are not supposed to call on angels or saints in heaven. they are not the Mediator.
Just because you think this, it does not mean that praying is useless. You cannot speak for other people spiritual experiences, you cannot talk about what you don't know. Your only argument is anger, and that emotion makes you its prisoner. I'll pray for God to make you free, and you can see with the eyes of your spirit and understand things you cannot understand now.
Exd 20:4 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:
@celioabatti Again idolatry. Idolatry is worshiping something in the place of God. Nobody thinks St. Michael the Archangel is a god. Nobody is worshiping St. Michael the Archangel. Get it through your head.
@celioabatti Why ignore all of the Bible verses I've quoted that show that the Bible CLEARLY teaches that it's OK, and in fact encouraged, to intercede in prayer for one another.
You in your ignorance are twisting maliciously words in the Bible to make them suit your false arguments.
To honour angels and saints is not idolatry, it has NOTHING to do with that.
You must be protestant, Muslim, or whatever , and you have your religious beliefs : great !, have them, but respect other people's religious beliefs. Catholic people have religious beliefs too, and you're coming over here to this channel accusing the owner of "idolatry" and other nonsense.
Really ? what about the little sculptures you have on the table in your living room? and what about the ones you have in the kitchen ? earthly stuff, things that are on the earth, air, and water, c'mon, don't lie.
Deu 4:23 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, [or] the likeness of any [thing], which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
Deu 4:24 For the LORD thy God [is] a consuming fire, [even] a jealous God.
Anything you ask the Father in My name I will do, not michael
16:23 At that time you won't need to ask me for anything. The truth is, you can go directly to the Father and ask him, and he will grant your request because you use my name.
@celioabatti God also asked us to pray for each other. As members of the Body of Christ we're all called to work together, the Saints and Angels aren't excluded from this merely because they are in the presence of God. Every request taken to the Saints and Angels is taken to God by them, and since the prayers of the righteous avail much their prayers for us to God are especially powerful.
@celioabatti No the flaw is confusing "prayer" with "worship". They're two very different things. One can worship without prayer, and one can pray (ask) without worship.
@celioabatti You aren't listening to a word I say are you? No, you're not interested in a discussion, you came here to rant. Well, let me tell you... it isn't helping your argument at all.
@celioabatti Revelation 5:8 "When he took it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each of the elders held a harp and gold bowls filled with incense, which are the prayers of the holy ones."
Here we see the Saints in Heaven presenting prayers to God.
I have no dout about that , i think you are the on that is not understanding.
How could God be Three and One at the same time? Simply because the Word of God distinctly affirms both truth. Both the Three and the One should be equally embraced without question.From these Scriptures we can see that the oneness within the Godhead is of such a nature that the work of One Person is ascribed to the Other, and all Three function as One with One Name (Matt. 28:19)
@celioabatti 1 Timothy 2:5-6a Seems at first to support your argument: "For there is one God. There is also one mediator between God and the human race, Christ Jesus, himself human, who gave himself as ransom for all."
@celioabatti But when you look in context to the preceding verses you get this: "First of all, then, I ask that supplications, prayers, petitions, and thanksgivings be offered for everyone, for kings and for all in authority, that we may lead a quiet and tranquil life in all devotion and dignity. This is good and pleasing to God our savior," (1 Timothy 2:1-3)
What's this? The Apostles are urging us to pray for each other to God?! But that's mediation! *gasp*
@celioabatti You wanted Biblical proof, well there it is right from the Bible itself. I guess it's true what Jesus said about some people having ears but cannot hear and eyes but cannot see.
@celioabatti Exactly. The word of God stands. The fickle interpretations made up by modern Protestants, however, doesn't stand. Give it a hundred years and it'll all be so much forgotten dust in the wind. Myself, I go with the teachings of the Apostles and their appointed successors.
@celioabatti And finally we have James 5:16 "The fervent prayer of a righteous person is very powerful."
Sure we can pray directly to God for all our needs, and we are encouraged to do so. However, those in Heaven are purely righteous without all the earthly temptations and sins to distract them that we have. When we ask them to intercede for us to God, we are gaining powerful help.
You must be protestant, I smell a lot of dogmatism in your comments.
Tell me where in the BIBLE says that invoking the angels of the Lord is idolatry ?.
If you cannot point out at any word uttered by JESUS about it, you better go away, study the Bible with a knowledgeable teacher, and come back when you know a little bit more, OK ? Because you're throwing on others your biblical ignorance.
@celioabatti In Deuteronomy 18:10–11 we are forbidden contact with the dead... Seems simple enough. But then we go to Matthew 17:3 and what do we see? The Transfiguration! Jesus hanging out with two dead guys.
@celioabatti You are seeing a conflict where there is none. Pray means ask. We ask each other for help. We ask God for help. We ask others to go to God and ask Him to help us. It isn't one or the other, it's both.
@celioabatti I already showed you where. It's your problem if you're too blind to put 2 and 2 together and get 4. The Bible must be taken as a whole, not one verse at a time. When you add all of those verses I've supplied together, you get one complete package that supports my argument.
@celioabatti Jesus is the head of the Body of Christ, we are the other parts of the body. Let's say that you're a hand. In your worldview a body would be complete even if it was just a head with an arm sticking out of it. In my worldview, all of the body organs are needed, the hand depends on the arm, the heart, the lungs, the stomach... and so forth. Christ created us to be interdependent.
@celioabatti If I ask someone I know at Church to pray for me... what's the difference between that and asking a Saint or an Angel in heaven to pray for me?
Very diffirent we are considered saints according to gods word, when you die do you think i should pray to you? Of coarse NOT Jesus always prayed to the FATHER giving us a clear example to follow
@celioabatti Yes, when I die you would be welcomed to pray to me, and I would be more than happy to go to the Father with your petition.
As members of Christ's Body we take up His work, and that includes interceding to the Father for others. Do you think people in Heaven just sit there? Why would perfected people want to sit around doing nothing when they could be helping those on Earth?
@celioabatti Guess what? I have a relationship with God too. In fact, God was the one who told me to pray to the Saints. He told me He likes it when His children work together.
@celioabatti Jesus rebuked hypocrites. And if you have a problem with "religion" then clearly you've never cracked a dictionary and read the definition of religion. Christianity is a religion, period.
Your argument is FALSE. You're twisting the words in the Bible to suit your beliefs.
Jesus never said anything against praying to angels and saints. Praying to them is not the same like making them gods. Your lack of knowledge about the Bible made you believe that.
Jesus interacted with angels while He was on this Earth.
@celioabatti And with that, we're done here. If this argument has dissolved into accusing each other of serving the devil, it has clearly met it's end.
I am a (doubting) catholic myself sir. The Catholic faith is in trouble. See the latest lament of the Holy Father about people turning their back to Christ. Western Europe has become more pagan than christian. And I think it is because, it is not based on REASON.
And I'm still waiting for your evidence that he's not. You came to MY VIDEO and challenged me. That means that it's on you to present evidence first. Had this video been an apologetic you may have had grounds to make me present evidence first, but since this is a prayer vid and I in no way asked for debate... you're the one who has to present evidence first. Those are the rules of civilized debate.
However, I will give you my argument. I assume that you believe that Andromeda Galaxy exists. I further assume that you have not seen it with your naked eye or through a high powered telescope. Now, even though you haven't witnessed it yourself, you believe in it because people you trust (scientists) tell you that it exists...
...Yet a flat earther would think you a fool and ask you if you would believe the moon was made of cheese if scientists told you so.
In the same way, I believe in St. Michael the Archangel because people that I trust (the Catholic Church) tell me that he exists. I have done the research and have decided to trust in the Church, just as I have done the research and decided to trust in modern science.
And who collects that evidence? Why do you trust the people who collect that evidence? Did you watch those people collect that evidence? Have you seen the evidence with your own eyes? Have you touched it with your own hands?
So again, we come to the point that we have both chosen to trust what scientists tell us.
My evidence for St. Michael the Archangel is in the Church and the Bible. I could present the relevant Bible quotes and Church documents but you wouldn't believe them. So why bother?
I've looked into Buddhism as well. I'm not the kind of person who rushes into a belief system. I'm the only religious person in my family and it took a great deal of thought and research before I decided that Catholicism is the truth.
Buddhism is too nihilistic for me. The idea that existence itself is meaningless suffering, and the only way to escape is to commit a complete suicide of self... much too depressing.
@vashsunglasses Well the suicide of self is understandable, if you aren't a Christian. Part of being Born Again is dying of your sins and being reborn again as a son of God.
@vashsunglasses: Agree, that is why I love the catholic faith. The saints are so beautiful in that they took the suffering and offered it to God. The suffering made them better, and they accepted it as a way to improve themselves.
@lizazoon I'm not refuting you, but many scientific reports that have given scientists and pharmaceutical corporations billions have been faked and not peer reviewed. Don't just believe something because it is labeled as science.
MrSamekh I agree that some science with a commercial interest might temporarily be fake. But it won`t take 2,ooo years to be exposed. But usually questions about the origin of life and evolution have no commercial incentive.
Any evidence that I could submit to you would also be rejected by you because you don't trust my source. In a scientific debate these things are easier because both parties get their source from science and work from there. In a debate among Catholics these things are easier because we could both reference the Church. But as an Atheist (I assume) and a Catholic the only source we have in common is science... and science is bound by physical reality.
vashsunglasses: I am no atheist sir, but I strongly believe in reason,common sense, evidence. I believe that every individual has to find his own truth.based on his.her mental capacities.
Then you'll be happy to know that I'm a big believer in research and common sense. One reason that I'm so fond of Catholicism is that the theology behind it is very much based on reason and logic. Everything fits together and unlike Protestant Christianity, there aren't any instances where I'm forced to mentally look the other way when I come to a certain part of the Bible. I think I could study all my life and never run out of new stuff to learn about the Church.
There are truths which you cannot apprehend with your mind only. Don't fool yourself. You're one of those individual who falsely believe that only through the mind you can grasp reality, you have made reason your only god, and this god in return has made you blind, arrogant, in two words: spiritually retarded.
@patroller4u There are many spiritually advanced in insane asylums. Sprituality is a by-product of man`s ability to reason, and his search for happiness. Spirituality is much less essential than food. The pygmees(60 years ago) had very little spirituality yet they lived fulfilled lives.
For you to say "spirituality is less essential than food" and also "there are many spiritually advanced in insane asylums"... is too pedestrian, gross ignorance.
Go and get an education, study philosophy, theology, anthropology and then come back and e-mail me. Otherwise, it'll be of no use for me to comment on your statements.
@patroller4u To qualifie my claim, that food is much more important as spirituality is a sure sign of insanity. Get some common sense ,please before coming on the internet.
...because science does not and cannot make claims upon that which is not physical, science simply does not have much, if anything, to say about spirituality.
Oh the irony. You're the one who started this little argument with an unsupported sarcastic quip. You set the tone, I was just following through. You may not have outwardly said it, but it was clear that you feel I'm a moron. I simply returned the sentiment.
You have no evidence whatsoever that St. Michael the Archangel isn't real. If you have evidence, show it to me.
Yeah... no. See, the difference is that Fred is a fictional character and St. Michael the Archangel is real. You may not know this, but spirituality is NOT equal to schizophrenia. As if you could pop in here and make a sarcastic quip and that's all it takes to win an argument? Ha! Moron.
@jofo817 Of course Jesus is God, but Jesus also said not to worship Him but to only worship the God above. Jesus was trying to show humanity the potential that can be had as beings created in God's image. If Jesus is God, then that would make God more merciful and compassionate than the god of this world was in the old testament. God is spirit. Everyone has a spirit. All spirits depend on Gods spirit to exist, including the spirit of Archangel Michael. Without God, we are nothing.
I wonderful prayer, that we should all say daily...these are dark times.

And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers the prophets and of all who keep the words of this book. Worship God!" (Revelation 22:8-9). Only worship God or Jesus! Angels don't want worship, they are humble to the Lord. They only want you to give all your praises to Him. Jesus is the only way to life. That is the Word.
royalsteven 1 year ago
With all due respect. We can not worship holy angels. Only fallen angels want this. "Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only" (Matthew 4:10). "At this I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, "Do not do it! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy" (Revelation 19:10: 22:9). "I John, am the one who heard and saw these things.

@royalsteven Well then... it's a good thing we DON'T worship the angels. Prayer does NOT equal worship.
vashsunglasses 1 year ago
Well prayer to angels like I said is not necessary to. Prayer is almost worship there's an overlap. Prayer is a part or form of worship. Prayer can go into worship or vica versa. So it's dangerous since praying to angels leads you from your direct prayer to God. So just pray to God. Every prayer has to go through Him :) I don't agree with the catholic rules also that you should pray to saints. Never worship man or any other creature. Bible never mentions that. Only pray to God.
royalsteven 1 year ago
@royalsteven Where does the Bible say to "only PRAY to God"? Prayer is a form of spiritual communication, nothing more. I think of it as a telephone, with the Holy Spirit as a conduit. We can use prayer for worship but we can also use it for supplication, contrition, and thanksgiving. Catholics respect and venerate the Saints and Angels, we ask them for help the same way we ask fellow Christians here on Earth for help, but we don't worship them.

About God, Matthew 6:6-9, But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father....This, then, is how you should pray: “‘Our Father in heaven". (John 14:13-14), And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. About angels, (Timothy 2:5-6): “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus'. (Revelation 22:8-9), I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them,

I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. But he said to me, “Do not do it!. There's is only one way to the Father and that is Jesus, everything has to go through Him. Jesus told many times and instructed his disciples/followers to pray to God, to the Father only. He prayed only to Him. Angels can not sanctify us, glorify us, and can not guarantee our inheritance in Christ (Ephesians 1:13-14). Only the Son and Holy Spirit can intercede before the Father's

@royalsteven I think you're reading things into that first passage that aren't there. If you're saying that you should ONLY pray to the Father do you also ONLY pray in your room and ONLY pray the Our Father prayer?
I agree that Jesus is the mediator between God and Humanity... BUT... have you ever in your entire life asked another Christian to pray for you? That doesn't take the place of Jesus as the mediator so why would it do so just because the other Christian is in Heaven instead of Earth?
vashsunglasses 1 year ago
@vashsunglasses. The living saints on earth can pray for each other, bcuz they pray in Jesus' name only, They dont ask a saint in heaven to intercede their prayers by giving them to the Lord. When the living on earth prays to someone else in heaven or hell that is idolatry. The RCC runs rampant with idolatry. Matt 6:8 says the Father knows our needs and prayers before we ask. The ones in heaven dont have a clue what our needs or prayers are. Praying to people in heaven is idolatry.
bornagainsaint1 11 months ago

jetspeedproductions 1 year ago
I am sure the vatican worships more materialism and statues than the true God. You have to respect Maria but she is not above God, God made us all. Christ said pray to the Father only. Only God can give salvation. You need to let His Holy Spirit do all the work in you. Not angels or Mary. I do not agree with a lot of catholic saints worshipping. Jesus said do not worship idols, false prophets, or any other gods then God. You cannot pray to saints or angels because they are never above God.

I am not your regular kind of christian. I am a believer (close to the Messianic Judaism who believe in Christ and in the original bible Tanakh). I also do not believe in the ultimate sacrifice and taking of sins on the cross concept. Jesus never said that He was going to die for our sins. He was deceived by Judas for money, persecuted and killed by evil men. And the oldest original Greek bible New Testament scriptures testify this. By the way you say don´t judge but you are judging non stop :D

Jesus talked about His death all the time, for ex. when He said that He would tear down the sanctuary and rebuild it in three days, He was talking about His body. And He did rise on the third day. Even I have seen Him many times. Once in the flesh (with my own eyes) and the other times in visions.

That is cool you seen Yeshua. I seen Him in my dreams. SInce I did my belief is bigger. Yes, Yeshua talk about he was going to die but not for others sins. Let me give one example how new bible translations take words/meanings out of concept. In the original Peshitta Aramaic Testament Yeshua says "This is the cup of the new covenant IN my blood wich is shed for you". In English bible it says "MY Blood". See this one word IN makes big difference in meaning. Read ancient texts yourself to know.

YAHU'SHUAH (Yeshua) and Ehyeh (I AM). The only way you find this out is to read and study the ancient texts (Peshitta, Tanakh and Dead Sea Scrolls etc). Wich NT you mean?

@celioabatti God also asked us to pray for each other. As members of the Body of Christ we're all called to work together, the Saints and Angels aren't excluded from this merely because they are in the presence of God. Every request taken to the Saints and Angels is taken to God by them, and since the prayers of the righteous avail much their prayers for us to God are especially powerful.

I am a (doubting) catholic myself sir. The Catholic faith is in trouble. See the latest lament of the Holy Father about people turning their back to Christ. Western Europe has become more pagan than christian. And I think it is because, it is not based on REASON.

So what's based on reason is immutable ? lol, bad, faulty argument

I am still waiting for your evidence that Michael the Archangel is real .
lizazoon 2 years ago
And I'm still waiting for your evidence that he's not. You came to MY VIDEO and challenged me. That means that it's on you to present evidence first. Had this video been an apologetic you may have had grounds to make me present evidence first, but since this is a prayer vid and I in no way asked for debate... you're the one who has to present evidence first. Those are the rules of civilized debate.

However, I will give you my argument. I assume that you believe that Andromeda Galaxy exists. I further assume that you have not seen it with your naked eye or through a high powered telescope. Now, even though you haven't witnessed it yourself, you believe in it because people you trust (scientists) tell you that it exists...
vashsunglasses 2 years ago
...Yet a flat earther would think you a fool and ask you if you would believe the moon was made of cheese if scientists told you so.
In the same way, I believe in St. Michael the Archangel because people that I trust (the Catholic Church) tell me that he exists. I have done the research and have decided to trust in the Church, just as I have done the research and decided to trust in modern science.
vashsunglasses 2 years ago
vashsunglasses--decided to trust in modern science.--
Any science, worth a penny, is based on evidence. Again where is your evidence for what you allege.
lizazoon 2 years ago
And who collects that evidence? Why do you trust the people who collect that evidence? Did you watch those people collect that evidence? Have you seen the evidence with your own eyes? Have you touched it with your own hands?
So again, we come to the point that we have both chosen to trust what scientists tell us.
My evidence for St. Michael the Archangel is in the Church and the Bible. I could present the relevant Bible quotes and Church documents but you wouldn't believe them. So why bother?
vashsunglasses 2 years ago
vashsunglasses ; Would you believe much older documents. e.g. from Boudhism ? If you need no evidence, you can as well believe what boudhism teaches.

I've looked into Buddhism as well. I'm not the kind of person who rushes into a belief system. I'm the only religious person in my family and it took a great deal of thought and research before I decided that Catholicism is the truth.
Buddhism is too nihilistic for me. The idea that existence itself is meaningless suffering, and the only way to escape is to commit a complete suicide of self... much too depressing.
vashsunglasses 2 years ago
@vashsunglasses Well the suicide of self is understandable, if you aren't a Christian. Part of being Born Again is dying of your sins and being reborn again as a son of God.

@vashsunglasses: Agree, that is why I love the catholic faith. The saints are so beautiful in that they took the suffering and offered it to God. The suffering made them better, and they accepted it as a way to improve themselves.

@lizazoon I'm not refuting you, but many scientific reports that have given scientists and pharmaceutical corporations billions have been faked and not peer reviewed. Don't just believe something because it is labeled as science.
MrSamekh 2 years ago
MrSamekh I agree that some science with a commercial interest might temporarily be fake. But it won`t take 2,ooo years to be exposed. But usually questions about the origin of life and evolution have no commercial incentive.
lizazoon 2 years ago
@lizazoon Evolution actually does. That's what most modern scientists base research off of. This goes into funding and book deals to name a bit.
MrSamekh 2 years ago
Any evidence that I could submit to you would also be rejected by you because you don't trust my source. In a scientific debate these things are easier because both parties get their source from science and work from there. In a debate among Catholics these things are easier because we could both reference the Church. But as an Atheist (I assume) and a Catholic the only source we have in common is science... and science is bound by physical reality.

vashsunglasses: I am no atheist sir, but I strongly believe in reason,common sense, evidence. I believe that every individual has to find his own truth.based on his.her mental capacities.
lizazoon 2 years ago
Then you'll be happy to know that I'm a big believer in research and common sense. One reason that I'm so fond of Catholicism is that the theology behind it is very much based on reason and logic. Everything fits together and unlike Protestant Christianity, there aren't any instances where I'm forced to mentally look the other way when I come to a certain part of the Bible. I think I could study all my life and never run out of new stuff to learn about the Church.

@lizazoon
There are truths which you cannot apprehend with your mind only. Don't fool yourself. You're one of those individual who falsely believe that only through the mind you can grasp reality, you have made reason your only god, and this god in return has made you blind, arrogant, in two words: spiritually retarded.

@patroller4u There are many spiritually advanced in insane asylums. Sprituality is a by-product of man`s ability to reason, and his search for happiness. Spirituality is much less essential than food. The pygmees(60 years ago) had very little spirituality yet they lived fulfilled lives.
lizazoon 1 year ago
@lizazoon
There are many atheists also in prisons.
Pygmies have no spirituality ? LOl, search again. You're dismissed.

@lizazoon
For you to say "spirituality is less essential than food" and also "there are many spiritually advanced in insane asylums"... is too pedestrian, gross ignorance.
Go and get an education, study philosophy, theology, anthropology and then come back and e-mail me. Otherwise, it'll be of no use for me to comment on your statements.
Good luck.

@patroller4u To qualifie my claim, that food is much more important as spirituality is a sure sign of insanity. Get some common sense ,please before coming on the internet.
lizazoon 1 year ago
...because science does not and cannot make claims upon that which is not physical, science simply does not have much, if anything, to say about spirituality.
So we find ourselves in a bit of a conundrum.
vashsunglasses 2 years ago
Note that by "physical" I mean both mass and energy. I include the smallest quantum particles and the largest planetary bodies and stars.
Spiritual things such as the soul are not made up of such things and thus cannot be measured by instruments made of matter and energy.

Insults, indicate a lack of education, and very often people resort to it, when they lose an argument.
You have no evidence whatsoever that Michael the Archangel is real. If you have evidence, show it to me.
lizazoon 2 years ago
Oh the irony. You're the one who started this little argument with an unsupported sarcastic quip. You set the tone, I was just following through. You may not have outwardly said it, but it was clear that you feel I'm a moron. I simply returned the sentiment.
You have no evidence whatsoever that St. Michael the Archangel isn't real. If you have evidence, show it to me.

Try praying, with the same fervor, to Fred from the Flintstones. I bet you will be surprised, how helpful Fred is.
lizazoon 2 years ago
Yeah... no. See, the difference is that Fred is a fictional character and St. Michael the Archangel is real. You may not know this, but spirituality is NOT equal to schizophrenia. As if you could pop in here and make a sarcastic quip and that's all it takes to win an argument? Ha! Moron.

Jesus Christ is GOD (Father,Son, Holy Spirit)
TRINITY = GOD
GOD = Father,Son,Holy Spirit
Therefore TRINITY = GOD
Michael is an ArcAngel (a creation of God) but not GOD
Dont believe all the anti-chrisitan lies of the watchtower cult (and others) that deny the Father and Son (those phony liars teach Jesus not God)
jofo817 2 years ago
@jofo817 Of course Jesus is God, but Jesus also said not to worship Him but to only worship the God above. Jesus was trying to show humanity the potential that can be had as beings created in God's image. If Jesus is God, then that would make God more merciful and compassionate than the god of this world was in the old testament. God is spirit. Everyone has a spirit. All spirits depend on Gods spirit to exist, including the spirit of Archangel Michael. Without God, we are nothing.
