D&C 63:

61 Wherefore, let all men beware how they take my name in their lips—
62 For behold, verily I say, that many there be who are under this condemnation, who use the name of the Lord, and use it in vain, having not authority.
Well, that just gives me the creeps.

You just condemned the entire LDS Priesthood.

Father Corapi is an amazing Priest. I was able to attend a Mass where he was presided. The Spirit was very strong.

I haven’t watch the video cited.

I will say that Fr. Corapi is THE BEST. His story is remarkable. If you want to know the TRUTH listen to Fr. Corapi. In my mind he has come from “the depths of despair” in his personal life (this information is freely available online) and gone on to be one of the most wonderful advocates for Jesus that we will ever find. I pray for him that he can continue in his ministry as long as possible.

If I didn’t express the above adequately, it is not Fr. Corapi’s fault, it is mine. If someone wants to ask about some deficiency, I will do my best to do better. Any deficiency is MINE, not Fr. Corapi’s.

interesting. so youre saying that your whole religion is condemned by denying the fact that God is God just as Jesus and the Holy Ghost are God (I all the same God three in one one in three). and also teaching that if a mortal man dies he can become a god. denying the first commandment then invoking the name of God is condemning yourself

Oh, its one of his best. You have to watch it. It really shows the reason and why we have the priesthood. Its the best gift that all mankind can be given.

Well, I have watched every video I can ever find from Fr. Corapi, often more than once, I just didn’t follow the link.

I guess you could say I am a Fr. Corapi “groupie” 😉 He’s the best!
 
I was hoping we would have more of the LDS here watch this and comment

It really hits the treasure we have as Catholics. It is what the Priesthood is all about. The one thing Satan hates about the Catholic Church is our sacrament of Confession. I myself once ridiculed it. I did not know it as I do now. Again I would love to hear what the LDS think about this.

Dear zerinus

How did fathers reflection make you feel? Could you see the possibility of joy? Maybe it made you feel un comfortable. Maybe you were judging. All of which is ok. Here is scripture that speaks on it further. How does this make you feel? There is a lot here. It is our Sundays Gospel of this week.

Lk 7:36–50
A Pharisee invited him to dine with him, and he entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at table.
Now there was a sinful woman in the city who learned that he was at table in the house of the Pharisee. Bringing an alabaster flask of ointment,
she stood behind him at his feet weeping and began to bathe his feet with her tears.Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them, and anointed them with the ointment.
When the Pharisee who had invited him saw this he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, that she is a sinner.”
Jesus said to him in reply, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” “Tell me, teacher,” he said.
“Two people were in debt to a certain creditor; one owed five hundred days’ wages 12 and the other owed fifty.
Since they were unable to repay the debt, he forgave it for both. Which of them will love him more?”
Simon said in reply, “The one, I suppose, whose larger debt was forgiven.” He said to him, “You have judged rightly.”
Then he turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give me water for my feet, but she has bathed them with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
You did not give me a kiss, but she has not ceased kissing my feet since the time I entered.
You did not anoint my head with oil, but she anointed my feet with ointment.
So I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven; hence, she has shown great love. 13 But the one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
The others at table said to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
But he said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

***When it comes to speaking about Jesus to others Confession first gives it strength out of love, through our weakness ***
 
The Mormon church is based on condemnation of Christianity. That is pride and falsehood. Especially when looking at the time frame, – and the location. America is not a big time player when it comes to the Holy Land…we are more the peoples in different parts of the world.

The Latin rite will always be celibate.

And we are coming to the end of a way of life. We are approaching a new era of peace…and how that will affect the priesthood, that is the Lord’s work.
 
I really thought more LDS would comment. I expected negative comments but had hoped for some good ones as well. The Priesthood is all about the forgiveness of sins. Satan wants us to hold them in or even try to forget about them. But it is in knowing our sinful nature and admitting that we are sinners that is the first step to being set free. Once you find this type of freedom you stay close to it. Jesus set His church up in a way that reminds of us of our sin in order to realize exactly where we our from, what we have done, in order to seek His hope given to us by way of His Cross, along with our confessions in order to know just how huge our God is, how much we are loved and treasured. Its all about being set free in order to be what He made us to be. “Loved” - “Loving” Forgiving. It is our Priesthood and it is for us to heal.

Protestants and I believe, Mormons, in a certain perspective, do indeed draw on Jesus Christ in spiritual communion.

The Eucharist is a sacrament and the means to approach it is the sacramental penance through the priest. When sin breaks the relationship to the Eucharist, then it is confession or penance that restores the full grace of the Eucharist…if we deliberately receive the Eucharist through the state of grave sin, we are sinning again through sacrilege.
 
Greetings to all -

What a wonderful sermon! Yes, the ordinance of Repentance is indeed one of the great gifts our Savior has given us. It is a practice in humility. It is the epitome of hope.

Father Corapi sounds like a great priest! I’ll be watching some more of his videos.

Sounds good pinay. God bless

The Priest hood is all bout administering the Most Holy Communion. About Confession of our sins in order for this Holy meal to be what it can to be. We have to approach Jesus with empty hands in order for him to be able to embrace them.

Here is another gem found.
