The Power of Confession, Removing Sin and the Levitating St. Joseph Cupertino

Father Carlos Martins and Ryan Bethea break down the sacramental, ontological power of Confession—from breaking the grip of sin and guilt to the mechanics of perfect contrition. Plus, they discuss the lingering damage of sin, the dangers of generational occult objects, and listener questions on holy water and spiritual warfare.Thanks to our sponsors!Head to https://forkfulmeals.com/XFILES for 50% off your first order today!Watch or Listen to The Born Again Identity on EWTN+ or click here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rym04mVTO8o and enjoy the auditory odyssey!Magnesium, multiplied. 10 forms for total support.
