A video of a young Catholic priest giving a speech critical of liberalism and Islam has received over 100,000 views on YouTube.
In November Fr. Jacek Miedlar addressed a crowd of 25,000 in Warsaw, Poland. The march was in recognition of Poland's Independence Day, which celebrates the country achieving freedom in 1918 after years of partitioning.
"Be ready to be spat at," Fr. Miedlar said. "Be ready to be persecuted. But our strength, our courage, is in the one Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!"
Then he called out, "The gospel not Koran!" The crowd then repeated the phrase over and over.

The start of a new Crusade! First win back Europe for Christ then start the re-convestion of the east. Win Islamic Hearts to Christ until they cast aside their Korans to embrace the word of the True God. “God Wills It!”
Lock and load.
i just wish we could give up on the word, “homeland.” It’s sounds like such a globalist term - intent on removing the thought of borders. What is wrong with Country?
Given that they’re pretty much on the front lines (again), the message has extra weight.
“Homeland” always suggests to me the center of an empire.
Good on him.
We need that to happen here in the US.
Brave men like this give me hope. In today’s world anything as positive as this makes me want to stand and cheer. Thanks for posting.
I think Franklin Graham is doing that, but thousands more like him, need to shout it from the roof tops. TO HELL WITH PC.
Bump!
That is awesome.
Half of my extended family is in Poland. It makes me proud.
With Europes border shifting according to political winds and power many times that usage is common.
Note that early in the translated speech he mentions homeland and immediate follows with nation. The homeland refers to that occupied by an ethnic common language group while nation or country is a political division.
Alsace Lorraine is an example, divided French and German populations identify with the ethnic group from which they hail and the land occupied over time despite being ruled by one country and then another.
Poland has endured that many times in its history, disappearing as a nation/state altogether for a period. All the countries of the old Austro-Hungarian Empire fall into the same category.
We have been blessed to not have endured a similar history.
That said, when I first heard that used by George W. Bush is raised my hackles, and made me wary of his motives and means.
Pope Francis is looking to transfer this priest to the South Pole.
Pretty awesome. Makes me want to go there.
Great video, great crowd. May someone step forward in the United States and do likewise.l
