Ok, guys, if there are animals in heaven, will they be vegans as well? Lots of animals eat other animals, like the tigers Father Rich is talking about. There are quotes in the Bible of the Land of Milk and Honey. I don’t think these guys were writing about almond milk.
First time listening to your podcast and I throughly enjoyed it.
I look at Death as a Transition from Life to Eternity,from finite it infinite. When we say that we Die, sounds so grim but to say that a person has Transitioned , is so much more uplifting. So, I have for some time, since the death of my beloved wife,after 61 yrs. of marriage. When I began to think that her soul transitioned, over the threshold into her eternal reward ,I felt uplifted and at peace with her passing. I understand that there is a Judgement, but it doesn’t have to be so final. Death is not final but the beginning of an Eternal Life , with God. That is a glorious picture of,Death. So, I try as often as I can to convey this idea of Transition,not, Death.
That’s powerful stuff. Thanks for sharing Anthony.
No mention of the Book of Enoch, and his vision/visitation of Heaven?
Just became a patron. WHOO HOO!!
I love this show. It’s awesome! Two Ryan’s and Fr Rich please the talk show going I love it!
Will I recognize my Son and will he recognize me when and if I get to go to heaven. Asked this of three priests and 3 different answered. One said No. One said, of course, you will. And the other priest said He wasn’t sure.
May not be the best place for my question, but the Garden of Eden was brought up in this show so it sparked my curiosity…..it sounded like you guys were speaking of Adam & Eve as actual people, which I grew up believing, but a few years ago our priest blew my mind when he spoke of it during a homily as ‘just a story’. Since then I get conflicting info constantly and don’t know what to believe anymore…..what have you been taught? They were truly the first man & woman, or it was a story to help us embrace the creation of man?
This was a great subject to talk about. So many people think it’s morbid to talk about death. I look forward to being in Heaven and seeing my loved ones again when my time comes. I mourn loved ones passing from this world only because I miss being with them. I know they’ve moved on from this physical plane.
I’m hoping you can address the “cremation vs. being buried” choices in a future podcast. I’ve been trying to decide how I want my remains to be taken care of once I pass (or should I say transition 😊).
I have a question for Fr. Rich. There was a case (link below) where a man posed as a priest and duped people for years. Now let’s say someone committed a mortal sin and confessed to this person. Sacramental absolution is surely not valid, but what happens to the penitent? Specifically what happens to the penitent if he passes away before getting to know the priest wasn’t really a priest? Likewise what about a person who receives last right from this “priest”?
After this I had a vision of a great multitude, which no one could count, from every nation, race, people, and tongue. They stood before the throne and before the Lamb, wearing white robes and holding palm branches* in their hands.
I said to him, “My lord, you are the one who knows.” He said to me, “These are the ones who have survived the time of great distress;* they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
By the time your heart stop, that will begin your transition to next life.. youl encounter darkness, float to nothingness.. Just like Jesus descended to hell.. until pass thru next life going to light.. if you considered accept Light, God in your next life..
Why can’t the words to this program be seen just instead of you all talking?
I can hardly stand it. I need to see the words. Is that posssible?
Love this podcast thanks guys.
