President Joe Biden, maybe
0:03
you missed it. Maybe you missed it. But
0:07
there was a pro
0:09
A B O R
0:11
T rally in
0:14
Florida. And
0:20
during her, a woman's appeal
0:22
about moving the cut
0:27
off from 15 weeks to six weeks. President
0:30
Biden, who claims to be a Catholic,
0:33
who recently said Pope Francis encourages him
0:35
to receive communion every single week, makes
0:38
a blasphemous sign of the cross in the
0:40
name of the father and of the son
0:43
and of the Holy Ghost. I'm
0:45
going to show you that video here
0:47
in just a little bit. And
0:50
I'm also going to do some questions and
0:53
answers today. So
0:56
this really brings us back
0:58
into the debate over
1:01
what does it mean to be a Catholic? What
1:04
does it mean to be a human? And
1:06
can you be fundamentally
1:09
opposed to
1:12
the teachings of the Catholic church
1:17
and still receive
1:20
communion publicly
1:22
in scandal?
1:26
And then this raises the other question of, we
1:28
got Bergoglio and
1:32
he's saying it's all good. All
1:35
right. So we got problems
1:38
in America. We got problems in Rome. And
1:40
that's what today is
1:44
the discussion. So here is the video. I'm going
1:46
to run it for you. And
1:51
here we go. And then we
1:53
come back here to state of Florida where
1:56
Ron DeSantis felt like he needed to run for president.
1:58
And so 15 weeks was. That's not good enough.
2:01
We had to go to six weeks. Okay. So,
2:06
you know, we're on to Santa's 15 weeks. We're
2:08
getting back up to six weeks. So
2:12
we're saving human
2:14
life. We are making a
2:17
pro life gain
2:20
politically in Florida and
2:24
president Joe Biden, who is in favor
2:27
of the a word in
2:30
all trimesters in all weeks. It's
2:32
making this on the cross. Now, maybe this
2:34
is a big maybe maybe Biden
2:37
in that moment had a change of heart. And
2:41
now he's like, thanks be to God for
2:43
Ron DeSantis changing this. This is just
2:45
great. But
2:47
that's not the case because he's actually
2:49
at a rally promoting
2:53
the culture of death. He's
2:55
actually spending his time as the
2:57
president of the United States, promoting
3:00
the culture of death. And
3:04
he is anointing
3:07
falsely. He is
3:09
anointing falsely the
3:12
pro death culture, the
3:14
pro death agenda. And
3:16
he has the
3:19
approbation. He
3:22
has the encouragement from Pope Francis to
3:24
continue to receive communion. I covered this.
3:26
I did a whole show on it
3:29
when it happened. I'm going to read it to you again.
3:33
This goes back to 2021
3:35
in October 2021. This
3:43
is an article reporting on it. I didn't use
3:45
a Catholic source. I wanted to use a secular
3:47
source. There's tons of them, by
3:49
the way. The secular press was so excited
3:51
about this story that Biden
3:53
went to Rome and
3:56
got this approval from Pope Francis. Here's what
3:58
it says. from
4:00
PBS. Biden takes
4:02
pride in his Catholic faith, using
4:04
it as a moral guidepost to shape
4:06
many of his social and economic policies.
4:10
Biden wears a rosary and attends Mass
4:12
Weekly, yet his support for
4:14
abortion rights and same-sex marriage has
4:16
put him at odds with many United
4:18
States bishops, some of whom
4:21
have suggested that he should be denied
4:23
communion. Joe
4:25
Biden said he and Francis did
4:27
not discuss abortion but offered that
4:30
the Pope said he was happy I am
4:32
a good Catholic and I should keep receiving
4:35
communion." And then
4:38
I think it was the next day or the day after
4:41
that Biden did receive communion in
4:43
Rome under the Pope's
4:45
approval, they're just
4:47
verifying and validating what
4:50
Biden said. And again Biden says,
4:53
Francis says, he was happy I'm
4:55
a good Catholic and I
4:57
should keep receiving communion. So
5:00
this is the question really, what
5:03
is communion? Aren't
5:07
we all sinners? No
5:09
one's worthy to receive communion, I'm not worthy
5:12
to receive communion. So if nobody's worthy then
5:14
it doesn't really matter, right? Well
5:17
in Catholicism we have distinctions,
5:22
we have original sin which is being
5:24
born outside the Garden of Eden, it's
5:26
being born without righteousness, without sanctifying grace.
5:30
And then there's what's called actual
5:32
sins and actual sins are
5:34
divided into venial sins and mortal sins
5:36
and this comes from the first epistle
5:38
of St. John in the New Testament.
5:40
You also find it in the
5:43
Epistles of St. Paul, if you see my book, The
5:46
Catholic Perspective on Paul, I show
5:49
that there's places in Paul's
5:51
epistles where he lists out mortal sins.
5:54
Right now if you're a Protestant non-Catholic
5:56
watching this, you're like well what's the
5:58
distinction, aren't all sin? equal to God? No.
6:02
Jesus says to Pontius Pilate that
6:05
he who betrayed
6:07
him committed
6:11
the greater sin. There
6:15
are greater and lesser sins. John
6:20
in 1st John says that there are
6:22
sins unto death, sins leading to death,
6:24
and there are sins not leading to
6:26
death. This is where we
6:28
get the distinction between mortal sins and venial
6:31
sins. And in the Old Testament there were
6:33
certain sins that were so grievous that
6:35
you received the death penalty. There were
6:37
other sins that were so grievous that
6:39
you had to bring livestock animals, animal
6:41
sacrifice at the temple. You'd put
6:43
your hands on the head of the animal and
6:46
confess your sins in the presence of
6:48
a priest. Sound familiar? And
6:50
that animal would die as a
6:52
propitiatory sacrifice for your mortal sin.
6:55
Other sins were venial. You
6:58
know, you stubbed your toe and you said, oh damn it,
7:01
that's not good. That's not
7:03
pleasing to God. It's using your mouth in a
7:05
bad way. But it's not a mortal sin, right?
7:11
As a raping a person,
7:14
murdering a person, stealing
7:19
a widow's home and throwing her on
7:21
the street. Mortal sin. That's
7:25
the distinction. And
7:28
in the Catholic Church we
7:31
are taught through Jesus Christ
7:33
and the 12 apostles that if
7:36
we are in a state of mortal sin,
7:39
alright, so if I murder someone, I'm
7:43
not in a state of grace. I'm in a
7:45
state of mortal sin. Now if
7:48
I'm in a state of mortal sin, I will go to hell. If
7:50
I die in a state of mortal sin, I will go straight
7:52
to hell. There's no appeal. There's
7:54
no purgatory for that. Mortal
7:57
sin, you only go to purgatory if you die in
7:59
a state of of grace. If
8:02
you die in a state of mortal sin, not
8:05
in a state of grace, you go to hell. If
8:08
you're in a state of mortal sin, you
8:10
cannot receive communion because
8:12
you're on your way to hell. Even
8:14
if you're baptized, even if you say, I believe
8:16
in Jesus, he's great. I
8:19
love him. He's awesome. But you're in a state of
8:21
mortal sin. You're on
8:23
your way to hell and
8:27
you can't receive communion. The
8:29
remedy for mortal sin is
8:32
another sacrament. It's the sacrament of
8:34
penance. I know
8:36
nowadays everybody calls it the sacrament of
8:38
reconciliation. It's
8:41
true. It's a little soft.
8:45
The council of Trent and tradition is called
8:47
the sacrament of penance. What is penance? Penance
8:50
is repentance, metanoia,
8:52
changing of your mind, changing of
8:54
your heart, a radical change away
8:58
from sin and towards God. We
9:03
go to the sacrament of penance and
9:05
this was established by Jesus Christ on the
9:07
day of his resurrection, three days after he
9:10
was crucified and died on the cross. He
9:13
appears to the 12 apostles in John
9:15
chapter 20 on the
9:18
evening of his resurrection. So
9:20
he hasn't even been resurrected a full 24
9:22
hours yet. And he breathes
9:25
on the apostles in John chapter 20.
9:31
Peace be unto you as
9:34
the father sent me. So I send
9:36
you who's
9:38
a, whose sins you
9:41
forgive. They are forgiven. Who
9:43
sends you retain. They are retained. That
9:47
is what Jesus Christ, our Lord and
9:49
savior, all glory be to him. Wanted
9:51
to say, as soon as he rose
9:53
from the dead to the apostles, he
9:56
gave them a power. He
9:59
gave them an authority. authority. And
10:01
what is that authority? It is
10:03
the authority to forgive sins
10:07
in the name of Jesus.
10:10
St. Peter can't say, I absolve you of your
10:13
sins in the name of Peter. No. In
10:16
the Catholic Church, in
10:18
the Eastern Orthodox Church, where
10:20
there's valid sacraments as well, they
10:23
say, I absolve
10:25
you of your sins. I forgive you of your sins
10:27
in the name of the Father and of the Son
10:30
and of the Holy Ghost. That
10:34
sacrament is only for baptized people. You have
10:36
to be baptized to receive penance. And
10:40
it has to be done in the presence of
10:43
a validly ordained presbyter
10:46
or bishop.
10:49
Deacons can't do it. A
10:52
monk who's not a priest can't do it. A
10:55
nun can't do it. A layman can't do it.
10:57
It has to be a presbyter, a priest, or
10:59
a bishop because
11:01
they have that authority, that
11:04
sacramental power through another sacrament
11:06
called Holy Orders in
11:09
order to declare, ratify,
11:11
and affect the forgiveness
11:13
of mortal sins. Venial
11:21
sins, if
11:23
I say, man,
11:26
that guy's a real jackass, you
11:30
know, and I may be downplaying a little bit, but
11:32
I don't like to write him that ruin his name,
11:34
right? I'll say I do it
11:36
in front of my kids. That's bad. That's not good. That's
11:39
not the Catholic way. That's not how
11:41
Christians talk. But
11:43
it's not a mortal sin. All
11:45
right. It doesn't remove me from my
11:48
bond of charity and love union with
11:51
Jesus Christ. By
11:53
the way, for it to be a mortal sin has to be
11:55
gravely evil. You have to know
11:57
it's gravely evil, and you have to consent and
11:59
will to to do it.
12:02
So killing a man is gravely
12:04
evil. I know killing a
12:06
man is gravely evil, but if I'm out
12:08
hunting and I pull the trigger on what
12:10
I think is a deer and I walk
12:12
up and it was a man wearing antlers,
12:15
I go, I just killed a man. It's
12:18
not a mortal sin, right?
12:20
Because I did not consent in will
12:23
to murder a man. It was a mistake.
12:26
It was evil, it was bad. Guy
12:29
died. I know killing people
12:31
is bad, but in that case, I did
12:33
not will. So it's not a mortal sin.
12:37
Venial sins are
12:39
in Latin venial, like they can,
12:41
they're easily forgiven. So
12:44
San Agustin says, you know, if you pray
12:46
be our father, forgive us our trespasses as
12:48
we forgive those who trespass against us, your
12:50
venial sins gone. If
12:53
you go to mass, your
12:56
venial sins are gone. You receive communion, your
12:58
venial sin. If you're in a state of
13:00
grace, your venial sins are gone. You use
13:02
holy water to valley, your venial sins are
13:04
gone. You say an act of contrition. I'm
13:07
sorry, Jesus for sinning. I'm sorry. I said
13:09
that. I shouldn't have said that. I'm sorry.
13:11
I used that language. I'm
13:14
sorry. I laughed at that inappropriate thing. That
13:20
right there gone. No problem. Back
13:25
to Joe Biden. We're in
13:27
a situation where you have one of the
13:29
most powerful men on earth who says he's
13:31
a Catholic, Joe Biden. And
13:34
it's not just that he says, you know, I just
13:37
think women should have a choice. That's up
13:39
to them. Right. It's not just like a
13:42
thought that he has in his head.
13:45
He is actively day
13:48
by day for
13:51
many decades as
13:54
a Senator, as a vice
13:56
president and as a president. Using
14:00
money votes
14:02
political power to
14:04
year by year extend the culture
14:06
of death As
14:10
a Catholic, he knows the Catholic Church is
14:12
against it You can't at this at
14:15
this late of the game say why I
14:17
never heard that Catholics were pro life. Are
14:19
you kidding me? All
14:22
these years I've been a senator and a vice
14:24
president and a president and going
14:26
to church. I had no idea You
14:32
It's gravely evil He
14:35
knows what the church teaches and he does
14:38
it any way This
14:41
is gravely wicked. It is
14:43
a scandal to the faithful and When
14:47
you have public notorious
14:49
sin Says
14:51
Thomas Aquinas and other church
14:53
fathers It is
14:56
permissible for the clergy to
14:59
gently pastorally in
15:01
a sensitive way Speak
15:03
to him about getting his life right
15:05
and not letting him have communion if
15:07
he's in a public notorious sin Now
15:11
let's talk about Judas Iscariot Judas
15:13
Iscariot received communion at the Last
15:15
Supper Did Jesus
15:17
Christ all knowing second person the Trinity?
15:19
Did He
15:22
know that Judas was in mortal sin that
15:24
Satan had entered Judas that Judas was about
15:27
to betray him that Judas was in mortal
15:29
sin. Yes, Jesus knew that and Yet
15:33
he gave him communion anyway Doesn't that
15:35
prove that we should be giving communion
15:37
to everyone in mortal sin because Jesus
15:39
gave communion in Jesus is
15:41
my knowing that Judas was in mortal
15:43
sin doesn't that prove that we should
15:45
give communion to Joe Biden Thomas
15:48
Aquinas says no Because
15:50
there's another important distinction You
15:55
can only not
15:57
give communion refrain from giving communion to
15:59
a Center if
16:01
it is a notorious public
16:04
sin. In
16:08
that case, he is
16:10
obliged, the priest or the bishop
16:12
is obliged not to give communion
16:14
to the notorious public center. Let
16:17
me give a couple examples of
16:19
what would and would not qualify according to
16:21
St. Thomas Aquinas in the Summa
16:23
Theologie. And by the way, if you want to

16:52
we have a whole video on
16:55
the topic that I'm discussing today, which is,
17:00
can a notorious sinner receive
17:02
communion? So you're getting a little
17:05
preview, getting little tidbits,
17:07
some appetizers today for
17:09
nsti.com. Here's
17:13
some examples. Okay, let's
17:15
say the priest, we're going
17:17
to call him Father McGillica. He
17:20
knows all the people in this, he's in a small
17:22
town. He knows all his parishioners pretty well, knows him
17:24
by name. He's been there for 10 years. One
17:28
night, he's got a
17:30
flat tire and
17:33
he kind of pulls up on the side of
17:35
the road next to a bar,
17:39
kind of a sleazy bar. You know, he
17:41
wouldn't normally go to that. It's not a pub, you
17:43
know, it's kind of a not so good
17:45
place. As he's changing his tire,
17:48
he sees Bill from his parish. Bill
17:51
is an upstanding man
17:53
in the community. He's married, he has
17:55
six kids, he donates a
17:57
lot of money. He's a good Catholic, right? And
18:00
Bill stumbles out of this sort of
18:02
sleazy bar with a
18:04
young woman on his arm.
18:07
And they start making out and he
18:09
touches her inappropriately. And then
18:11
Father McGillica, he kind of hides himself
18:13
and changes tire and he leaves. And
18:16
that evening he's thinking, man, Bill and
18:18
my parish is a real son of
18:20
a gun. He's married,
18:22
he's got five kids, he's
18:24
active in the church, but,
18:27
you know, he's out at night with
18:30
this young woman and he's being inappropriate with her
18:32
and who knows what's going on there. You
18:35
know, this is not good. And then the
18:38
next morning it's mass and he sees Bill
18:40
come forward to receive communion. Thomas
18:43
Aquinas would say that Father
18:46
McGillica, he must
18:48
give communion to Bill. Why?
18:52
Because his grave sin is
18:54
not notorious in public. Only
18:58
Father knows about it. Just
19:02
like with Judas, only Jesus
19:04
knew that Judas was going to betray him.
19:06
Even the other apostles were like, oh, he's going to
19:08
go do something important, you know, bye Judas. Sorry,
19:11
you have to leave early, you know, and Jesus
19:13
wasn't like, he's betraying me. You
19:15
know, it was all kept discreet. So
19:19
Thomas Aquinas says in that case, Father
19:21
McGillica, he cannot receive, cannot refrain from
19:24
giving communion to Bill because the sin
19:26
is private. Now
19:29
let's change the scenario. Let's
19:33
say that a year
19:35
later, Bill
19:38
gets arrested for drunk
19:40
driving and
19:42
that leads to an investigation and
19:45
Bill admits,
19:50
yeah, not only am I drunk driving, but I
19:52
was drunk driving to my mission mistress's house. Oh
19:55
my goodness sakes, right? And
19:58
then everyone finds out and there's an investigation.
20:00
investigation the he in the mist he's
20:02
been the mistress has been helping him
20:04
in bezel money and Steel
20:07
from people in the community. So he's
20:09
got adultery. He's got embezzlement
20:13
He's drunk driving. I mean
20:15
bill golly Come
20:18
on bill, but instead of
20:20
bill saying I'm so sorry I'm
20:23
so sorry I've taken the
20:25
wrong way. I need to get back to Jesus. I
20:27
need to repent. I'm gonna go to confession on it
20:30
Bill says, you know what? Screw all you people
20:33
I'm gonna do things my way. I don't want you
20:35
to you can't judge me And
20:39
He comes to mass the next day
20:41
defiantly to make a point and to
20:43
receive communion Thomas Aquinas
20:45
says that in this scenario The
20:49
priest the pastor should refrain
20:51
from giving communion to bill
20:53
why what changed? notorious
20:57
public sin scandal
21:03
Right Or if a
21:05
man were to come to mass and say
21:07
these are my two wives And
21:10
I'm here to receive communion It's a
21:12
public thing that a man is married to two women
21:15
and he's flaunting it and coming to the
21:17
communion rail That's a public because marriage is
21:19
a public thing. That's a public scandal public
21:21
sin This
21:24
is the teaching of the Catholic Church Traditionally,
21:26
it's not the teaching of Francis Progolia,
21:28
but it's the tradition traditional teaching of
21:31
the Catholic Church and Thomas Aquinas Does
21:35
that make sense So
21:38
with the public notorious scandalous
21:40
sin the priest refuses The
21:43
communiqué if it's private the
21:45
priest gives communion in the case of Joe Biden. I'm
21:48
gonna ask all y'all right now we got live Live
21:52
chat going we got 2,000 people. I'm gonna ask y'all
21:56
Is the sin of Joe Biden? grave?
22:02
Is it public? Is it
22:04
notorious? Is it manifest? And
22:07
if it is, shouldn't he be
22:10
refused communion according to the criteria
22:12
that we just went through in
22:14
Catholic moral theology? While I wait
22:16
for you all to answer that in the life chat, I'm gonna
22:18
ask you to like the video, share the
22:20
video. This is an important topic. We're
22:23
getting into some real theology.
22:25
People need to understand these
22:27
distinctions because the Catholic Church
22:29
has been thinking and pondering
22:31
on these questions for
22:36
two millennia, 20 centuries.
22:40
And if you're new, please subscribe. My name is Dr. Taylor
22:42
Marshall. I make videos, podcasts
22:44
about philosophy, theology,
22:47
church history, current
22:49
events, news, etc.
22:52
Okay, so I'm going to jump in here to the... Everyone's
22:55
saying yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I'm
22:57
looking for a no. Anyone disagree with
23:00
me? Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
23:03
Okay, everyone is in agreement because
23:06
I have a really good
23:08
audience. Yeah, everyone's in agreement. So
23:14
if that is the teaching of the
23:16
Catholic Church, why is it that Pope
23:19
Francis Progolio is
23:21
telling him, you're a good Catholic, Joe
23:24
Biden, Joey Joe,
23:27
Joey Biden. You're a
23:30
good Irish Catholic. You
23:32
keep receiving that communion. You're
23:35
a good Catholic. How is that the case? I
23:41
mean, Adolf Hitler was
23:44
baptized Catholic and he received Catholic
23:46
confirmation. So the sacramental
23:48
preparation for Adolf Hitler was Roman
23:50
Catholic. I don't know if y'all
23:52
knew that. Adolf
23:56
Hitler killed a lot of people. All
23:58
right. I don't know. of y'all knew
24:00
that big scandal. I
24:03
would call that a public and nus and
24:06
notorious scandal. Now,
24:08
obviously Adolf Hitler did not profess to be
24:11
a Catholic. He did not attend mass kind
24:13
of became an occultist later in
24:15
his life. He committed
24:17
suicide. So he did not
24:19
persevere in being a Catholic, but
24:22
he was sacramentally a Catholic, baptized
24:24
and confirmed. What
24:27
if Adolf Hitler came to Rome to
24:30
Pope Francis Bergoglio and
24:32
said, Hey, I'm here to receive communion. I
24:34
want to receive communion every Sunday. I'm here. I want
24:37
to receive communion. I want to receive communion from you,
24:39
Pope, Holy Father. Oh, I'm
24:41
Catholic. I want to receive communion. Should
24:44
and would the Pope
24:47
give communion to
24:49
the sacramentally Catholic Adolf Hitler
24:53
just because he's baptized Catholic, or
24:58
is there a public scandal? Is
25:00
there a grave situation that would
25:02
cause a priest, Bishop,
25:05
Archbishop Cardinal, and or Pope to
25:07
say, you know what, you
25:10
are in a scandalous
25:12
situation, Adolf, and
25:14
until we can remedy that and
25:17
see some public penance for some
25:19
public sins, you don't receive the
25:21
body and blood of Jesus Christ.
25:25
Adolf, would you like to go to confession and
25:28
confess your multitude of sins? And
25:31
if he says no, then he doesn't get
25:34
communion. And what we have right now is
25:36
a situation where
25:39
you have a leader of
25:41
a nation who
25:45
is promoting a
25:47
culture of death. Unrepentant.
25:54
No sign of stopping. In fact, pushing
25:56
it. I mean, he is at. Here
26:00
he is. And
26:02
then we come back here to I
26:06
mean, he is at a rally promoting the edges of this
26:11
issue in De Lincoln. He
26:15
is the Matter of � colourful, invisible
26:17
ic his
26:29
so makin the sign of the
26:31
not only is there a public notorious scandal
26:33
or makin the sign of the cross while
26:36
we discuss that Joe Biden and
26:40
yet Pope Francis
26:42
is saying, give
26:44
them communion. Keep going on the communion.
26:50
Let's get your thoughts on that. What
26:53
is the bigger scandal here? I
26:55
want to get your thoughts on that. Is
26:57
the bigger scandal here, Biden making the sign of
26:59
the cross at a rally, let's
27:02
suppose the Catholic teaching or is the bigger
27:04
scandal here? A
27:06
Pope telling Joe
27:08
Biden, you're a good Catholic. Keep
27:11
receiving communion. Good,
27:13
good little boy. All
27:19
right. Looking at your Renee
27:23
X, pre Vatican II, Pope's ex
27:25
communicated unrepentant Catholics who scandalized the
27:27
faith 100% they did Renee. See
27:31
Renee has read Catholic church
27:34
history and
27:37
it's not just Pope's. Bishops did the same.
27:39
St. Ambrose of Milan. He was the
27:41
Bishop of Milan. He baptized
27:43
San Augustine. He was one
27:46
of the greatest theologians who ever lived.
27:49
He's one of the Western
27:52
fathers of the church. There
27:54
was an Emperor, Theodosius
28:00
I think it was Thessalonica. He had a
28:02
bunch of people killed in thousands. There was
28:04
a political revolt. So
28:08
all these people got killed by the order
28:10
of Theodosius. The
28:12
next Sunday, doo-doo-doo, Theodosius is coming to
28:14
church, walking over to the cathedral as
28:16
probably his retinue. He's
28:19
gonna come to Mass. And
28:23
Bishop Ambrose sees this and he goes to the door of the
28:25
church and he says, no! Emperor
28:29
Theodosius, Emperor of Rome,
28:33
you have blood on your hands.
28:36
You can't even come into the
28:38
church. You cannot pass this door
28:40
into the cathedral, Emperor, because you
28:42
have blood on your hands. What
28:45
was the response of Theodosius? Only
28:50
God can judge me. No, Theodosius
28:52
was cut to heart. He
28:54
realized Ambrose was right and
28:56
Theodosius did penance and
28:59
was absolved to the sacrament of penance
29:01
and was reconciled to Holy Mother Church
29:04
and then he went back to Mass
29:07
and received communion. That's
29:11
how you do it. That's Catholic.
29:13
That's Catholicism. That's a church father.
29:15
That's a saint. That's a doctor.
29:20
St. Ambrose. He
29:22
didn't say, I'm
29:24
just gonna respect your conscience on that one,
29:26
Emperor. Yeah,
29:29
I'm just gonna like accompany your conscience
29:32
and just assume that because
29:34
you're the Roman Emperor, you
29:36
formed your conscience before you killed those people and
29:38
you did it in a good
29:41
conscience. So you can receive
29:43
the Eucharist today. That's
29:45
the modern Jesuit approach.
29:49
It's lame. It's offensive. All
29:53
right. Gregory
30:02
Cox says, now
30:04
we can see how the Antichrist
30:06
uses weak leaders to wreak habit
30:08
in the world. Yes, but
30:11
it's not just leaders in
30:14
America or in Europe. It's
30:16
leaders in the
30:18
church. Talk
30:21
about infiltration. It's
30:24
leaders in the church. Infiltrating
30:30
their way in and giving the
30:32
green light to this
30:34
sacrilege, to this blasphemy.
30:37
If you agree, please
30:39
like the video. You
30:41
agree with what I just said, like the
30:43
video. Which
30:47
is a bigger problem? The
30:49
fact that Francis is saying, you're a good
30:51
boy Joe Biden, keep receiving communion. Or
30:54
the fact that Joe Biden is going to these rallies and
30:56
making the sign of the cross. Which is worse or are
30:58
they the same? American
31:03
Toughtop says, 50% of Catholics are registered Democrats in
31:06
the same amounts of abortion. I
31:08
think it's actually higher than that. But yeah, you're right.
31:10
And I wonder why that is. Oh,
31:12
I know it's because our bishops are
31:14
weak sauce. Affeminate.
31:17
Right? They see
31:20
themselves as CEOs. They
31:23
wear their black business suit and they have
31:25
their cross here. They
31:27
strut around and have a little entourage. And
31:31
if you want to talk to your bishop, you can't talk to
31:33
him. Right? There's all
31:35
these people that are a buffer at the dialysis
31:37
and office around the bishop. And
31:40
you have to talk to those people. Right?
31:45
You see a lay person. Oh. So
31:50
they're CEOs. And
31:53
unfortunately, in the United States of America and
31:55
in Germany, they get so much money from
31:57
the government through grants. And
32:01
germinates through taxation. You
32:03
know, they really at this point in America don't care
32:06
about the money that's in the pews. Like when you
32:08
put your money, yeah, they want the diocesan appeal. Yeah,
32:11
they want the catherádicum. That's
32:13
the tithe that they take from all the parishes. Yeah, they
32:15
want all that. But I mean, they get money from other
32:17
places. And
32:21
they don't want the Democratic
32:24
Party to get mad at them. So
32:27
they have their little black business suit on. Oh,
32:31
no, like Mugatu, you
32:33
know, in
32:35
Zoolander. I have
32:38
the entourage, little guy with a little dog. Bishop
32:45
Mugatu. That's a real right there,
32:47
Dan. Bishop Mugatu. Somebody
32:50
spilled a latte on him. He's
32:53
like, ahh. There
33:00
are good bishops out there. But
33:02
I'm just saying, our experience as
33:04
lay people in the United States of America
33:06
is the bishop is
33:09
not a father, not a priest, not
33:12
an overseer, not a shepherd. The
33:14
bishop is a CEO who
33:17
is currently closing down churches,
33:19
merging churches, and dealing with
33:22
lawsuits because of sexual molestation.
33:25
And they're just, their mind is
33:27
in lawyers. And
33:33
what we want as Catholics is we
33:35
want shepherds. We
33:37
want shepherds. Someone
33:42
says, Bishop Strickland, he's good. Yeah, but he got
33:45
removed. Jeffrey
33:48
says, they are both equally serious
33:50
problems. The president is not being
33:52
counseled to take the actions that
33:54
will save his soul. Exactly.
33:59
And that's on who? That's on Francis. And
34:02
then people say, well, gee, too, or why do
34:04
you always hate Francis? You're always hating on Francis.
34:06
Like I'm loving Francis here. This
34:09
is the truth. You
34:11
know, I'm not gonna sit here on a
34:14
webcam, dad on a webcam and say, yeah, you know,
34:18
what we need to do is just everyone who's
34:20
a public, everyone is a center, we'll just pat
34:22
them on the head and be like, keep receiving
34:24
communion. It'll all work out in
34:26
the end somehow. What? Like
34:29
how disingenuous would I be if I said
34:31
that? And
34:34
when I say, I think it's
34:36
completely disingenuous and hypocritical for
34:39
a man who says, I am Pope Francis to
34:41
do that, am
34:44
I wrong? Am I wrong? No,
34:47
I'm not wrong. I
34:49
am standing with the tradition of the church. I
34:52
am repeating to you exactly what Saint
34:54
Thomas Aquinas says, which is the man
34:57
should be refused Holy Communion, not given
34:59
Holy Communion. Does
35:03
anyone disagree with me? Does
35:06
anyone disagree with me? I'd love to hear someone
35:08
say, man, you are a real peace,
35:11
Marshall. Solitary.
35:15
Dr. Marshall, have you approached the
35:17
AI priest on the best pastoral
35:19
approach? Man, the AI priest that
35:21
Catholic Anters put out this past
35:23
week is such an embarrassment. It
35:25
is so lame and
35:28
they've walked it back, but Catholic
35:30
Anters has fallen so far.
35:35
15, 20 years ago, they were on
35:37
the forefront. They were
35:39
on radio, they were in places and
35:41
they were doing catechesis and helping people
35:43
understand Catholicism. Catholic Anters
35:46
has very much become Francis Anters. How
35:48
do we defend everything that Francis
35:50
says? And Dr. K
35:52
exposed that with the AI bot priest.
35:56
And it was just, the AI bot
35:58
priest had weird things about absolution. And
36:00
I mean, I haven't sorted the whole thing out, but it
36:04
was a horrible idea to
36:06
create an AI priest that
36:09
people were going to, I mean, who made
36:12
this decision? That
36:15
person should be fired. That person
36:17
should be terminated. Yes, let's do
36:19
an AI bot. Not an
36:21
AI bot apologist, like
36:24
some avatar of Jimmy Aiken. That'd
36:27
be funny. It'd be interesting. But no,
36:29
we're going to make a priest, an AI
36:31
priest, who's going to talk to
36:33
people and give pastoral sacramental. I
36:35
mean, this was such a bad idea. Whoever
36:38
thought of it should be fired. It's
36:42
bad. I mean, this is
36:44
how people's souls are led
36:46
astray. You're putting the pastoral,
36:50
spiritual father role of
36:52
people using AI chat
36:54
bot over people. Very
36:57
bad. Very bad. I
37:00
hope they learned their lesson on this at
37:03
Catholic Answers. John
37:06
Wick. I always love to see John
37:08
Wick. John Wick, how you doing? John
37:12
Wick, is Biden's subject automatic excommunication
37:15
as abortion accomplice? He aids
37:17
people obtain, he
37:20
aids people obtaining abortion by
37:22
actively supporting public funding. Yes,
37:24
John Wick. This is what
37:26
Cardinal Burke
37:29
said. Cardinal Burke
37:31
said that there
37:33
is a Lates Intensiae automatic
37:35
excommunication placed on politicians who
37:38
are funding and voting for
37:40
policies that lead to the
37:43
termination of life. I
37:47
mean, go back to the Adolf example.
37:50
As far as I know, I don't think Adolf
37:52
ever stood on a firing squad
37:54
or at a camp. Right?
37:59
I mean, he may not even fired a bullet at
38:01
anyone, but he was writing the orders, right?
38:06
He was sending the decrees, making
38:09
the decisions. Stalin may not
38:11
have actively killed someone directly,
38:16
but he was making the decrees for them
38:18
to be killed, making the orders.
38:21
So you can't say, well, politicians
38:24
in the Senate, in the House,
38:29
in the Supreme Court, in
38:32
the Oval Office, you
38:34
signed that into law. You
38:37
provide funding, taxpayer money to
38:39
accomplish it. You
38:42
are an accomplice. You
38:46
are in it. You did it. So
38:48
yes, anyone who is in a comp... Like
38:51
if, for example, if your
38:53
neighbor says, hey, I need you to drive me somewhere,
38:55
okay, I'll drive you somewhere, where are we going? Planned
38:57
Parenthood. Why are we going to Planned Parenthood? I'm going
39:00
to get an A, B-O-R-T. If you
39:02
drive that person knowing that there, you
39:05
are automatically excommunicated from the church.
39:08
Did you know that? Because you're an accomplice. So
39:12
that's a good point, John Wick. Does
39:25
the excommunication matter if the Pope and the
39:27
bishops give him communion, though? Well, the excommunication
39:29
does matter, and that means every time he
39:31
receives communion, he's damning himself deeper and deeper
39:34
into hell. And
39:36
the fact that a Pope and bishops would
39:38
be accomplices in a man, sinking
39:41
further and further into the mire
39:43
of perdition is just another judgment
39:45
on them. It's
39:48
disgusting. And they're
39:50
going to come out, by the way, they're going
39:52
to say, keep receiving communion, keep receiving communion, and
39:54
then they're going to put out a document called
39:56
infinite dignity. Take a
39:58
hike. You're going
40:00
to put out a document, infinite dignity, and
40:04
yet you're going to allow someone like
40:07
Joe Biden to continue to receive communion.
40:12
What he does. Funding
40:15
and loss. All
40:24
right. Like the video, everybody. Let's say, I think we
40:26
should say a prayer for Joe Biden. Let's
40:29
say a prayer together. We're going to say a Hail Mary. The
40:31
mother of life, the mother of the
40:34
Messiah, the mother of Jesus Christ. Hooray,
40:36
Musa. Nomeni Patris et Firi et
40:38
Spiritus Sancti, Amen. Ave Maria,
40:40
gracia, plena, domino, stecum. Benedicta
40:43
II and Moliaribus et Benedictus
40:45
Fructus Ventris, Tui, Jesus. Sancta
40:48
Maria, Mater Dei, Oropronovius,
40:51
Pecatoribus. Nunket ettorum
40:53
mortis nostre, Amen. Nomeni
40:55
Patris et Firi et Spiritus Sancti,
40:58
Amen. All
41:00
right, now it was a prayer for Joe Biden.
41:03
St. Joseph, pray for Joe Biden.
41:07
God wills for no one to go to hell. God
41:10
wills the condemnation of no one, but
41:12
he gives us a free will. And if you choose
41:14
to reject him, his love, his mercy, not
41:17
to have hope and faith in his
41:19
son, Jesus Christ, who bled out
41:21
for all of our sins, if you choose
41:23
to reject that, if you choose
41:25
to persevere in wickedness and evil, it
41:28
says in John's Gospel, John chapter three, you
41:31
are already judged. You
41:34
are all ready judged.
41:37
And the judgment of God is
41:39
just against sin. The
41:41
only refuge is in Jesus Christ, our
41:43
Lord and Savior, the son
41:46
of God, the son of man. So
41:48
turn to Jesus Christ. If you're not a
41:50
Catholic and you're watching this, you need to
41:52
become a Catholic. Wait, there's so many
41:54
scandals in the Catholic Church. Yes, there
41:57
are so many scandals in ancient Israel and yet ancient.
42:00
Israel was the one true people
42:02
of God. There
42:05
is only one true church. Jesus
42:07
Christ has one bride, the church.
42:09
Not many brides, he's not a
42:11
Muslim, he's not a
42:13
polygamist, he didn't have two brides, he didn't have the
42:15
Catholic bride and the Protestant bride or the
42:17
East North of Knox bride. He
42:20
has one bride, one church. Join
42:23
the one true church. How do you join the one true
42:25
church? Holy baptism. Unless
42:29
you were born of water in the Holy
42:31
Spirit, you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.
42:35
Number two, receive the sacrament of confirmation,
42:37
that's the gift, the
42:39
outpouring of the Holy Spirit, third
42:41
person. If
42:44
you're already a Christian,
42:46
but you're in a heretical assembly,
42:50
you need to join the church through a profession
42:52
of faith, believing everything the church says, and then
42:54
you need to go to confession. We
42:57
talked about that earlier. Confess all
42:59
of your mortal sins that you've ever committed
43:01
since baptism. You'll receive absolution, you'll
43:03
be admitted into the church. Then
43:06
you can begin to receive confirmation and
43:09
the Holy Eucharist. This is
43:11
the way, this is the way forward. And
43:14
we need all Christians on earth, all of
43:16
us need to come together into one true
43:18
church in submission to
43:20
Rome, in submission to the Holy
43:22
Pontiff, the Vicar of Christ, believing
43:25
everything Jesus taught and everything the apostles
43:28
taught. If you agree with that, go
43:30
ahead and do a thumbs up. Read
43:34
your Bible every day, go to
43:37
Mass every single Sunday, and Holy Day of Obligation.
43:39
Go to confession every two to four weeks if
43:41
you can. Find a
43:43
traditional Latin Mass if you can. Pray
43:45
the rosary every single day, five
43:47
decades minimum every day. Pray the
43:50
rosary every day or you're not
43:52
on the team. The
43:54
rosary is the weapon. This is how we fight the
43:56
culture war. If you're not praying the rosary every day,
44:00
really with us. You're not holding the
44:02
weapon. You're
44:04
not doing the spiritual battle that needs to be
44:06
done. I didn't make that up. The
44:08
Blessed Virgin Mary said it at Fatima. Popes
44:11
have said it. Padre P has said it.
44:13
Saints, mystics, this
44:15
is the way forward. So pray the rosary every
44:18
single day. Make sure you have subscribed to
44:20

right. If you want to learn how we got into this
45:29
big problem, check out my book,
45:32
Infiltration. You can get the audible. You can read the
45:34
book. It's a 200 year history on
45:37
how there was an infiltration of
45:40
bad people into the seminaries, into the
45:42
convents, into the monasteries who have sought
45:44
for the last 50 to
45:46
60 years to corrupt and
45:49
infiltrate the one true
45:51
Catholic church. I explain
45:53
how it happened, what's going on, who the
45:55
key players are. And then at the last
45:57
two chapters of the book, I give
45:59
a game plan. plan on how we can kick
46:01
these infiltrators out and reclaim the one true
46:04
church for our Lord Jesus Christ. He still
46:06
has it, by the way. He's not lost,
46:09
right? There's just some bad players inside.
46:11
We can get them out. That's
46:13
what an infiltration is. Thank
46:16
you for watching. May
46:19
God bless you. I'm very excited. Tomorrow I'm going to go
46:21
get my honeybees. Got honeybees
46:23
arriving. Two nukes. So
46:26
I got my bee suit,
46:28
my smokers, and I'm ready to go.
46:30
So I'll report back on how the bees went. Maybe I'll
46:32
make a little video of the
46:34
new honeybees. So I'm excited about that. And
46:38
remember that God has a plan for
46:40
you. You are special. He wants you
46:42
in heaven. He wants to make you into a
46:44
great saint. Do not be discouraged.
46:46
Do not give up. And
46:49
he says, you are the light of the
46:51
world and the salt of the earth. So
46:53
go out there and be salty. God
46:55
bless and Godspeed.
