I love this video.
You go there, you see history, Our Lord's and St. Thomas Aquinas. Please take a moment and listen to Father Barron explain.

For later
Jews at the Jewish Passover feast(dinner) doing jewish things in a jewish way for jewish reasons..
(night before crucifixion)..
They were Jews following a Rabbi(Jesus) they were not christians..
No gentiles were present..
They all knew what Jesus was talking about..
He was talking to Jews not “Christians”..
Only non believers called them christians..
They did not use that term for themselves, among themselves..
I wish you would. Did you watch the entire video? What of the Eucharistic miracle? You see the place where the miracle took place. What of St. Thomas Aquinas’ experience, hearing from Our Lord? Both the priest who experienced the miracle and Aquinas are real people.
God bless you,
No... I don’t accept RCC dogma...
For that matter I reject much of Protestant dogma as well...
I may not be a “christian”... whatever that is..
But I do accept God as an “entity”..
I merely posted to add to the conversation...
The “Eucharist” is as strange to me as Mormon fables..
People believe what they can believe
according to what they have to “believe” with... in their culture..
Buddists are doing the best they know how, I think..
Same with the “Muzzies”...
Thanks for your kind reply. With all my heart, I wish I could convince you. If you believe in the Eucharist, you
will make it through the very close Great Tribulation.
You won’t be waylaid by evil, the anti-Christ saying the
Real Presence isn’t true.
Watch, this isn’t clergy speaking but a scientist. His story is so interesting, you don’t mind reading the translation as you watch. A couple of years ago, miracles within miracles in this Eucharistic miracle. The Scientist explains simply. Take the time for a few minutes and tell
me what you think.

I don’t believe in miracles.....
I rely on them....
I may sound irritating, whiny maybe, will you still watch the 2nd Youtube? Watch five minutes of it.
You know how secularists make science their God. Science confirms, what happened isn’t of this world.
Totally weird.
Watched the video, this was the first time I’ve seen Fr. Barron.
It was very good, very well presented. Looks like some other videos there I’ll watch as well.
Thanks very much for posting.

You are welcome. It is timely with the feast of Corpus
Christi last Sunday. I know of a few indulgences but not
many. Here is one I found out about last Sunday evening.
Father Barron was talking about St. Augustine’s Pange
Lingua. Many are familiar with the last verses of it, Catholics sing this hymn during Benediction.
Again, seeing Father Barron there in the place Our Lord stood and the Church St. Augustine visited...wow*!

Tantum Ergo is the last two stanzas from the Eucharistic Hymn (Pange Lingua) composed by St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) and is used at Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. The response and the prayer at the prayer at the end is a later addition used at Benediction. A partial indulgence is granted to the faithful who recite it and a plenary indulgence is granted to those who recite it on Holy Thursday or Corpus Christi.
Tantum ergo Sacramentum
Veneremur cernui:
Et antiquum documentum
Novo cedat ritui:
Praestet fides supplementum
Genitori, Genitoque
Laus et iubilatio,
Salus, honor, virtus quoque
Sit et benedictio:
Procedenti ab utroque
Compar sit laudatio.
Sensuum defectui.
Amen.
Down in adoration falling,
Lo! the sacred Host we hail,
Lo! oe’r ancient forms departing
Newer rites of grace prevail;
Faith for all defects supplying,
Where the feeble senses fail.
To the everlasting Father,
And the Son Who Reigns on high
With the Holy Spirit proceeding
Forth from each eternally,
Be salvation, honor blessing,
Might and endless Majesty.
Amen.
“To acquire a plenary indulgence,” says the Enchiridion, “it is necessary to perform the work to which the indulgence is attached and to fulfill the following three conditions: sacramental confession, Eucharistic Communion, and prayer for the intention of the Sovereign Pontiff. It is further required that all attachment to sin, even venial sin, be absent.”
THE LAST REQUIREMENT, GOD ONLY KNOWS...desire never to commit sin, it so hurts God.

Everything Father says, gives you a feeling of joy and I
recall, one thing Father Barron states about someone famous.

Sorry, I meant to type St. Thomas Aquinas.
stupida,
You were right!
That’s a very good one. I’m much into epistemology, reason/science and these types of discussions and explanations. Recommend this to others of a similar bent.
I’m familiar with First Cause, but I haven’t seen Argument by Desire and by Contingency explained well before this, or perhaps I just didn’t pay good attention.
thanks much...
You seem very gullible... I’m maybe a bit cynical....
I think that would me me an old, gullible cynic.

D-fendr liked the above.
Many a brilliant man found out who God is and fell in
love with Him. Watch the Youtube all the way through...
Should have been:
I think that would make me an old, gullible cynic.
With typos that indicate he should go to bed.
God bless...
If disbelievers could change, come to believe in the Real
Presence, all their misunderstandings about the faith will
fall away. Whatever is ahead in the Great Tribulation, you
won’t get waylaid.
What can I share, what can I share so I checked for commentary by a favorite apologist, John Salza. He said
if you believe in the Incarnation, you can believe in
the Eucharist. Both great mysteries, they are both from God.
Notice John Salza’s last comment in his quote. Stopped in your tracks if you read the King James Bible. Look what the King’s translators did~~!

John 6:64
New International Version (NIV)
64 Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him.
John 6:65 (Douay-Rheims)
But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning, who they were that did not believe, AND WHO HE WAS, that would betray him.
Catholic Apologist John Salza:
“We also must remember that faith in the Eucharist is the same faith we need to believe in the Incarnation. Even though Scriptural passages prove beyond a doubt the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist (and also see the early Church Fathers), it really takes faith to believe it. That is why Jesus connects Judas’ disbelief in the Eucharist to his betrayal”
Wait a second, King James’ translators changed Jesus’ words, removed a couple of words which show Our Lord was specifically talking about...it’s singular...Judas.
