"prayer to Mary would cause her unbearable sadness"

She held the body of her broken son in her hands... Think she could handle our pain without flinching

Happy All Saints Day from a former Protestant! 😉 I know their prayers played a huge role in my recent conversion to the Catholic Church! 🙏🙌

Intercession of the saints was one of the biggest objections I had to overcome when I dabbled in Protestantism, now as a practicing Catholic I can see how easily the objection is refuted. We become partakes of the divine nature here on earth and even more so in Heaven, and the saints are not “dead” they are more alive than we are

What a nice timing. I just attended the All Saints Mass 1 hour ago and now I have a video from Trent Horn.

Im a protestant and I dont think that my catholic brothers or sisters are idolaters for praying to the saints or the virgin mary. Its just wasn't how i was taught to pray. I dont see a problem with and i wish we would focus on what we have in common besides what makes us different.

Mentioning the devil at 5:20...that's Trent throwing the gauntlet at this anti-Catholic argument against the intercession of saints. I have never thought of it from that perspective. 🔥

As soon as he said "dead woman in heaven" he lost all credibility.

[HodgePodgeVids]

Holy Mother and all the Saints please pray for us

[MrsScott-bxsb]

Funny how my evangelical friends and family believe the Lord can give them supernatural knowledge to pray for someone, such as a sudden inclination to pray for someone, but they do not believe He can do that with the Saints in Heaven.

Just wanted to pop in and say thank you for what you do Trent. Your hard work has helped me grow in understanding our theology as well as having better discussions about it.
Recently, I had a discussion with a friend about abortion and had managed to at least make him pause and consider my positions, which had been strengthened by your work..

Keep up the good work!

1:27 how can he say she's a dead woman when she's in heaven?!

God is not a God of the dead but of the LIVING

GLORY BE TO JESUS CHRIST!!! 🙏☦️♥️

[marccrotty]

Mary and the Saints are alive in Heaven praying for us. Heaven is outside of time and can contemplate each prayer "at her leisure." In other words, time is not a constraint for the Saints.

[catkat]

Woohoo!! Happy All Saints Day, y’all! How I love our great cloud of witnesses ❤️🥰❤️

[marcihf]

Happy all Saints day. All ye Saints of God please pray for us. Thank you. Amen

[butter__boi]

Thanks always for your work. I was pushed to Catholicism largely from Trent videos making the historical and biblical cases understandable. Trying to help my family see the truth and people I know at the Protestant church I used to go too. Using these videos for notes to bring up is very useful

Loving the professional studio and image quality, Prof. Trent. Way overdue for you. You're a stalwart defender of the faith for us.
Great vid. Congrats on 100K subscribers.

Each time one of them used the word "omniscient", I thought of Inigo Montoya's line from The Princess Bride: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
Hearing the prayers of millions of people at the same time is a minuscule bit of knowledge compared to all that God knows. It doesn't even begin to approach omniscience.
Human beings are very limited beings. In death, we'll still be limited beings, but that doesn't mean we'll be limited exactly the way we are now. In fact, we will definitely be less limited, because we won't be bound by our bodies. Our intellectual capabilities could be increased a millionfold in death, and they'd still be tiny compared to God's complete knowledge of everything.

James White never ceases to amaze me with the crazy things he says.

Great apologetics, Sir !!! Lord Jesus, have mercy on us sinners 🙏. Blessed Carlo Acutis of London and Milan, pray for us 🙏
