Summary

Patrick answers listener questions about exorcisms, IVF, the need for baptism, why we need confession, and can Angels lie? 

  • James – I’ve heard that exorcisms are taking longer to work? How do our actions affect the body of the Church as a whole? 
  • Ray - 1 Cor 6: 19-20. Why is the body the Temple of the Holy Spirit? 
  • Brenda - Can a priest’s dog be in church during mass? Also, is it okay for a lay person to take care of the alter while the priest is sitting during mass? 
  • Haley - At the institution of the Eucharist, how do we understand Jesus holding his own body?  
  • What do people who have used IVF do they do when they realize it’s a sin? 
  • Norman – Jesus died on the Cross to pay for all our sins. So why do we need to be baptized? 
  • E Frank - If a pastor of your Church has a different opinion of the sacramental life than what you were raised with which opinion should we follow? 
  • Bonacci - I am a neurophysiologist and some people with epilepsy are prescribed a dog to tell them if they are going to have a seizure. Would it be wrong for a priest to have a dog for this reason? 
  • Jennifer – Can I be the Godmother of a child born from IVF? 
  • Joe - Regarding the snake hall: What do people who don't like it think about when God told Moses to make a serpent for people to look at? 
  • Michael – Can Angels come to Earth and appear as people? 
  • Eddie - Why do we need to confess if Jesus is with us?

It's the Patrick Madrid Show on Relevant Radio.

Come on, man.

0:21.0

That's right.

Welcome back to the Patrick Madrid show, where it is not Pledge Drive.

0:26.1

We had Pledge Drive last week.

0:27.3

Thank you again for your generous outpouring of support.

0:30.2

We had a $3 million goal need, and we surpassed it.

0:34.8

Thanks to be to God in your generosity.

0:36.7

I think $3.1 million as of the figures that I saw this morning, and that's due to your generosity. So thank you for that. It's no longer Pledge Drive. You can call 888-914-9-B on the air with me. I look forward to talking to you. In the meantime, though, if you weren't able to participate in last week's Pledge Drive, you can still do so for a few days anyway, and we'll count it toward that Pledge Drive. Just go to RelevantRadio.com or use the Relevant Radio app. And I'll be getting to phone calls here in a moment. First, I have a note that just rolled in. And this is from James listening on the Relevant Radio app. he says Patrick I was listening recently to an interview with an American exorcist

1:13.8

and the discussion about how long exorcisms take nowadays in order to free someone from possession

1:19.8

and that a lot of his colleagues are complaining that they are having a hard time now

1:25.4

freeing people.

1:27.1

He contributed this, or I think he means

1:29.3

attributed this to the state of the church, and that are sins that we do individually affect the

1:34.4

body of the church as a whole. Therefore, the efficacy of the exorcism prayers are not as strong

1:39.6

as they used to be. I never once considered one's own actions affecting the body of the church as a whole.

1:45.8

I would love your comments on this. Well, I am entirely prepared to believe that there may be

1:55.0

something to that. Now, far be it from me to second guess or gainsay an exorcist. So it's not my place to say if he's right or wrong,

2:03.8

but just from a theological standpoint, it has the ring of truth to it. Because as it says in
