It's a valid concern. Part of the problem with YouTube is that people who are unaware of the background of these content creators watch these videos and they may believe whatever they hear. It is very challenging to navigate through these YouTube videos in search of the Truth. Some very unethical individuals are now cashing in on the popularity of the subject of exorcism and demons.
Yes, and of demons tell you bad things are going on in the Vatican, why would you believe demons and why would you go public with it? Plus why would you be talking to them like this in the first place? It's just a thought.
The reason was the growing presence of occultism in society, the increasing use of various dangerous spiritual games and practices, and the trivialization of the occult world, portraying it as something charming and easily accessible. In fact, people from America on this forums have been discussing exactly this, even in small communities where such things would have been unimaginable not so long ago. And you can see how Kabbalah dominates America, while all these alleged ritual sacrifices and the abuse of children by the elites have gone unpunished. Bloodstained mattresses are found, and everything is simply swept under the rug without anyone being held accountable. Even television series have become increasingly demonic. Clearly, certain traditional Catholic bishops have decided that this hidden aspect of the Catholic Church, something the Church does not usually emphasize publicly, should be brought into the light and serve as a warning for people to stay away from such practices, because they are real and dangerous. However, as often happens, they stirred up too much controversy and drew attention to certain things at a time when a spiritual battle for the family and humanity is taking place. It is one thing when someone tells you that you may face legal consequences, but it is quite another when you hear these accounts from people who are genuinely excellent speakers, articulate, knowledgeable, and deeply familiar with the subject. At the very least, they make those who believe stop and reflect. In my opinion, Father Lampert is every bit as impressive as Father Chad Ripperger, both as a theologian and as a person. When you listen to him speak, you can tell that he is neither trying to create a sensation nor seeking attention. He speaks from personal experience, with remarkable clarity and an exceptional command of the subject. As often happens, things are once again deliberately pushed to the opposite extreme in order to trivialize the entire subject. Those who claim that none of it exists do just as much harm as those who intentionally take everything to such extremes that people eventually dismiss it all as nonsense. The goal is always to trivialize and discredit the subject. Of course, you cannot prevent people from sharing various edited clips taken out of context, but everyone is responsible for choosing what they watch and follow. These interviews are valuable as reminders of faith, the grace of conversion, and the power of God. They are not something you should constantly consume or obsess over every single day, because that can be just as dangerous and ultimately lead you away from God.
It does appear that there is currently a kind of hypnotic spell on the world. A crack opened in the 60s and the smoke of Satan inhaled. Now the world is drunk and in a stupor. Exorcists talk, millions watch, but the world has billions. We watch the world slowly drift away into the cold dark night of madness. On my pilgrimage I can tell you the most beautiful places are where Benedictine monks have prayed for centuries. Even the nature around them responds. Contrast that with the violence currently playing out. I also suspect that even if the whole world watched these videos not much would change. People in general are in the habit of continuing on in their habits. Good or evil. So as we continue going forward on the path. Let us take care, of both ourselves and others.
It's always good to look at both sides of the issues to get a more balanced view of things. For instance with Padre Pio , who was a great saint we have to take into account the passionate Southern Italian temprament which can go a bit overboard. For instance the riots in the town led by the mayor where they went amok and threatened to kill people. The occasion when a group of his spiritual daughters planned to kidnap him to keep him to themselves.. The envy and terrible behaviour towards the saintly American Mary Pyle and the abominable way she was treated out of sheer envy. The almost riot scenes that happened when the Church was opened in the mornings. The shots of Padre Pio desperately trying to keep these really fanatic mobs under control. Little wonder that the Vatican knowing Southern Italy so well kept a close eye on things. On balance of course Padre Pio was innocent but he just found himself in a great mess. There were of course many bad and evil actors. But it good in such things to look at both sides of the coin to maintain balance. The same with Father Ripperger.
My husband and I used to listen to talks by Fr. Ripperger way back before very many people knew about him. We learned a lot and were drawn closer to Mary in particular through him. In the last year or so, he's become a celebrity. That is not his fault, but the world suddenly took a huge interest in him, and there can be a danger in that when certain things are sensationalized. In my heart, I believe that during his talk with his bishop, he agreed and welcomed the idea of more peace, time for prayer, and a simpler life out of the spotlight. When we are working for God, we have to be ready to lay it all down immediately if God asks us to step aside. Then we prove that it is God at work, and not us. When St. Therese was finally assigned a missionary priest after begging God for one to "adopt" through her prayers and sacrifices, she was filled with joy. But right when that young priest began his ministry, he was killed. As her sisters were discussing this, some of them thought Therese hadn't heard, because she was just silently doing her ordinary duties, hiding her sorrow and disappointment. When she was asked how she felt about her first priest dying before he could go on his mission, she simply replied that God had no need of her help. She saw herself as a toy ball that Jesus could pick up and play with or toss into a corner and forget about, as He chose. Fr. Ripperger's ready obedience reminds me of this attitude. It is how God can perfectly accomplish His will in us. St. Maximilian Kolbe was like this as well. He wanted to be Mary's slave, to do everything for her...but to be ready at her slightest call to immediately stop whatever he's doing. He said otherwise you're relying on yourself and doing your own work. Perhaps the devil was ready to twist Fr. Ripperger's work into something it wasn't meant for, and God saved him from this through holy obedience.
We may never know the whole story, but God allowed this for a reason. I will join you in prayer. Father's last interview with Sean Ryan was chilling... Shawn Ryan: “Somebody doesn’t want you doing this.” Fr Ripperger: “That’s true.” Shawn Ryan: “The demons are calling out sins of people very high up in the Catholic Church…” Fr Ripperger: “Mm hmm.” Shawn Ryan: “and they don’t want those sins to get out…” Fr Ripperger: “Yeah.” Shawn Ryan: “And it sounds like they want you gone.
I agree PF. Fr Riperger is first last and always a son of Mary Immaculate. And he is guided by her. He would of course be obedient trusting her to work it out for him. Sister Josefa was told by Jesus during her years of mystical visions that she must always obey her superiors because in obedience she was protected against the deceit of the devil--even if that obedience was in conflict with something Christ had told her to do. Whether this action was just or unjust in the case of Fr Ripperger is kind of a moot point. The order was given and he obeyed. I am going to pray that Our Lady's intentions for both Fr Ripperger and Archbishop Golka are realized. To me that is the safest way to approach it.
I’m not at all worried. We knew sooner or later this was going to happen. It just says to me the prophecies are happening. Marie Julie Jahenny’s messages are coming true. We are getting closer to the Warning.
By the way, Tucker sent a video appalled by Trump’s last video he posted on Truth Social. I saw it. I won’t post it. But it is unbelievably disturbing. I think Trump is not at all well.
