Hello,
Can anyone help me, with this video?
youtube.com/watch?v=yRDCWacBAcY
I need english subtitles. Because I want to translate it to my language, and any parts are less understandable. There are english automatic subtitles, but it isnt as exact, as I need.
I need only continous sentences without timing.
Thanks.
The Mass begins when the priest prays in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. As he says this we all make the sign of the cross in something you have probably done instinctively for years. But it all means something. Even the way you hold your hand means something. Now, in the west, we hold our hand, open hand, like this, because the open hand is a sign of blessing, the symbol of blessing, so we, in a sense, bless our self. In the east is is really interesting, because what they will do is hold their hand with these three fingers together, these two fingers and the thumb together, as a sign of The Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and these two fingers down, as a sign of God’s, Jesus’s, full humanity and full divinity. And it all means something. And when we make the sign of the cross, itself, we are reminding our selves of at least three things.
The first thing, the most obvious thing, is that God is a Trinity. So we make the sign of the cross in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, reminding us of, like, this key, core, belief in our faith.
But even more when, you trace the sign of the cross on youf self, what you’re tracing on your self, is your worth. Its your price tag. You can ask the question: “How much are you worth? Are you worth a million dollars? Are you worth a billion dollars?” Well the sign of the cross is your price tag. It’s how much you are worth. You are worth, according to God, you are worth his very life and his very death, as often as you make the sign of the cross, you’re claiming your price tag.
The last thing says, there are so many people, kind of loose their story in life, they don’t know why there are here in life, they don’t know the meaning of life. Well there is this old book from the last century, called the Baltimore Catechism, and in it, it asks a couple of questions and the first question is this: Who made you? Well the answer: God made me. But the second question goes to the heart, and the question is: Why did God make you? The answer is that: God made me to know Him, to love Him, and to serve Him in this world, so I can live with Him forever in the next. As often as you find yourself kind of not knowing the meaning of life, of not knowing does you life have a purpose or do you have a story, you can make the sign of the cross. And it reminds you that you’re here for a reason. You’re here to know God, to love Him, and to serve Him in this life, so as to live with Him forever in the next. That’s all wrapped up in that sign of the cross.
