Martin Luther Prefigured in the Old Testament

God is magnificent! Prefigured in the pages of the Old Testament is the story of Martin Luther. This video is one of many videos in which people, places and events in the history of the Catholic Church are actually prefigured in the ancient pages of the Old Testament.

Many many thanks. I am Protestant convert and this is probably one of the best studies I came across. If I was still Protestant and listening to this, you would have converted me!

The Rosary is prefigured through numerology in the Old Testament; for example: David's 5 smooth stones represent the 5 Smooth stones that ever Holy Rosary begins with. It was David's weapon against Evil; the Rosary is our spiritual weapon against evil.

Having converted from Protestantism, due to teachings of other traditional Catholics I may add, it was a nightmare for me to navigate through all the pro and cons of sspx and the online publicity/ criticism around them. (By the way, if it was up to the novus order, I would have no need to convert, right?). Well I dived right into it, and studied all I could from fr Gregory Hess and Bishop lefebre, and st pius x. What an effort, but it paid well off, and I became convinced too. What a blessing to see after all of that sweat and efforts, your exposition on the lone old priest in the hills, keeping to the traditions of the fathers. Bless you for your insights and observations. It added an element of “triangulation “ to all my research, which is very welcome. I know this doesn’t relate to this video, but I wanted to add it to my recent post to you.

I had this thought and searched on YouTube to see if anyone else agreed. I’m surprised it’s not talked about more!

Hi, Maccabean Uprising what is the meaning of the sign on the right bottom corner of your videos?

[frederickevardo]

i like your comparison between the two

[yutubvid]

1 Kings is actually 3 Kings, and 1 Chronicles is actually 1 Paralipomenon. If you are going to quote Scripture, you should really use the only acceptable version of an English translation of the Old and New Testaments- the Douay-Rheims. Be onboard with the Catholic Faith completely.

Hi Maccabean Uprising and all. I read in the Vatican's Lumen Gentium (The Cathoic's papal and magisterial declarations...), It is voluminous, therefore, I would attempt to address the Church's position on Salvation as explicitly written... "This Sacred Council wishes to turn its attention firstly to the Catholic faithful. Basing itselt upon Sacred Scripture and Tradition, it teaches that the Church, now sojourning on earth as an exile, is necessary for salvation. Christ, present to us in His Body, which is the Church, is the only Mediator and unique way of salvation... Whosoever, therefore, knowing that the Catholic Church was made necessary by Christ, would refuse to enter or to remain in it, could not be saved... The Church recognises that in many ways she is linked with who, being baptized, are honored with the name of Christian, though they do not profess the faith in its entirety or do not preserve unity of communion with the successor of Peter... But the plan of salvation also includes those who acknowledge the Creator... who professing to hold the same faith of Abraham, along with us adore the one and merciful God, who on the last day will judge mankind... Nor is God far distant from those who in shadows and images seek the unknown God... Those also can attain to salvation who through no fault of their own do not know the Gospel of Christ or His Church, yet sincerely seek God and moved by grace strive by their deeds to do His will as it is known to them through the dictates of conscience... Nor does Divine Providence deny the helps necessary for salvation to those who, without blame on their part, have not yet arrived at an explicit knowledge of God and with His grace strive to live a good life..." Lumen Gentium, Constitutions- II Vatican Council.

With all due respect, the " new people of God" IS NOT the Catholic Church, to say that is to ignore the scriptures, ANYONE to believe that Jesus is the Messiah and the son of God, that he was, and is, and there's to come, has eternal life and is therefore a son of the Almighty.
