I've been thinking of joining my local Catholic Church, its the original authentic religion in my opinion.

I think you’re right. I converted from a Christian religion, and I think the seriousness and the Eucharist, and being able to confess, is the best thing about it honestly.

Please take the time and study youtube.../mhfm1 and the information on their website. In order to be saved one must be catholic, since only the catholic faith is the authentic religion established by Jesus Christ. Simply calling oneself catholic while holding position contrary to catholic doctrine does not make one a true catholic. The apostate sect of Vatican II is not the Catholic Church but a modernist counterfeit church, a product of the prophesied Great Apostasy.

I joined mine, and have loved my choice. I even teach the Bible program now.

Oh Bas you have no idea how much the Lord has used you to touch me.! Almost 2 years ago I found the Lord (also through true miracles in my case) and due to my self-centered nature I have been searching for the "right" church ever since. Almost 18 years ago I was a fat lonely boy looking for acceptance after being bullied and excluded for many years. Then I saw your videos and tapes on self-defense and took up MMA. Your instructional videos were the start of my self-confidence. After a few years, I met my wife through this self-confidence and was given my first son by the Lord. I now have 3 children and am in a situation that I could not even have imagined in my wildest dreams. Two years ago, I had to take a break from my sport (which had previously been one of my priorities in life) due to the coronavirus measures and was empty inside despite my family. And that's exactly when the Lord drew me to Himself and showed me what the only true purpose in life must be. Now, after this long journey in my life, I am at a point where I trust in Jesus 100% but have not yet joined any Christian denomination. And now you come and tell us about your journey and that you now belong completely to the Catholic Church. Just yesterday I was still faced with the decision of whether to join the Catholic Church completely or not. And I asked the Lord for a sign... I am sure that this is a sign and that I have found my resting point. I still have the poster I ordered from you ~18 years ago with your picture and the quote (handwritten): "Godspeed and Party On!" on it including your signature. I thank you and especially the Lord for this path and this temporary(!) end! I look forward to meeting you in heaven too. God is good! ps: I will also post this comment under your other video and hope you will read it.

We need to be more open to rediscovering our faith and not be afraid about it at the end of the day who cares what people think . Ive realised in life whatever a person does people will comment negatively so may aswell do whats right for you . Great video by the way Bas ive just recently seen your videos about faith in Christ they are awesome !

Listening to Bas discuss the faith is helping me get back to Mass. I am proud we have such a strong champion for the faith.

I am not interested in becoming Catholic but I think you did a very good job of explaining why you choose to stay with the church in spite of the negative things that have happened. In this video you taught me many things I did not know and I heard new arguments I had never heard before. The Harvard analogy is a clever one. So thank you for making this video I feel like it helped me understand Catholics better.

I am 40 years old and I can relate to much of what you said in this video. Accidents as a child that I miraculously walked away from, the night terrors/sleep paralysis from when I was a child under 5 years old. Memories of which are still so vivid to this day. Coincidences/events that are just too perfectly orchestrated to be by chance. This has all lead me to the bible. My biggest problem right now is knowing how to live my life correctly and serve the right purpose. So much evil and so much confusion. I struggle daily and it stresses me badly. I wish I had people like you in my life to help me on this journey. I have subscribed in the hope that your channel helps guide me.

As a Catholic who has recently returned to the fold I appreciate your explanations and point of view! As human beings we are all susceptible to corruption, in all walks of life. What we must highlight to the naysayers is that Jesus was the perfect human being and lived the perfect life and while his follower may slip, fall and fail from time to time, He wont.

I used to go to St Therese in Alhambra for the Latin Mass when I lived in LA. What a beautiful church to get married in! Thank you for sharing your thoughts here and in the video of your conversion story. God speed! Tim

Total respect to you Bas. At a time when Christianity is seen as evil this guy stands up to talk facts.

Thank you, brother, for this excellent series of videos and additional source of inspiration. God bless you and your family.

Fantastic Video Bas. The faith established by Christ himself really is very special and very powerful . So many Protestants are becoming Catholic, and many aethisists too. The History, the saints from all over the world make you think. All the best on your journey.

Awesome video Bas! Very well explained and like always up front and direct. I really appreciate that about you. God bless you, my brother.

Love your stories! I hope to see more! ❤ All the best to you!

I am so happy I came upon this video! We’ve met before when you visited an Non-Op MMA school called Black Mat in Whittier about 15yrs ago. Born Catholic, I was the son that would say “Yes” to the Lord, but do the opposite (Matthew 21:28-32 ). I just recently returned to the church. I too am now working very hard to be a better Catholic I should be. I now find myself defending the Catholic Church. Before I keep ranting on..I am so glad to know one of my MMA inspirations is of the church established by Jesus. God bless you, Bas.

Please keep making faith based videos and speaking from the heart, I’ll watch every one. Thank you.

Big fan of yours since the early days of Pancrase and into UFC. I am a catholic myself and mma praticioner. As I've grown older I have come closer to the church and its teachings. Seeing your return to the faith is inspiring, I can relate to...I've been praying the rosary and practicing the sacraments.. I look at it the same way I train my body, but forging my spirit. I have found peace even while enduring suffering, putting all faith in God when things don't go my way.. God doesn't give you a cross you can't carry plus he is our strenght.

I’m really glad your making these video these are great keep it up! Praise the Lord!

Bas, I’m a seminarian from Texas and have been a big fan of yours since seeing you fight and seeing you in a few movies. I was recently told by a seminary brother that you were a devout Catholic and quite honestly did not believe him as famous people tend to claim to be Catholic but aren’t. I am very thankful to hear that you truly are and very thankful for you putting this video up and being shameless in defending our Faith no matter what. I pray for you and if you ever find yourself in Houston, I’d love to grab coffee or lunch after Mass.

You and Dekkers have always been my inspiration since I started training 20 years ago, but you have really impacted my life with these videos. Thank you for helping me find my way back to my faith ❤

Awesome to hear you found faith again, Bas. May you have a fruitful and enlightening journey.

I love your testimony and watched a few of your videos...It's great to see that you are in the faith and helping to spread the word...I feel that you are a Christian that goes to a catholic church...I have noticed that many people who attend the catholic church don't know about being born again...They don't seem to be growing spiritually from the catholic teaching or understand regeneration...I was very happy to see though all the good they do with helping society in so many ways and commend them for that...Maybe that's where they can really help people in those ways...We learn from God's word most importantly and from following Jesus...Keep in up my brother...

This morning I had a WhatsApp text from a friend of mine inviting me to that persons surprise party. You know that situations like this happen all the time. 20 years nothing I talk about him and I see the text from my friend. I looked at the time he send it, since holland is 9 hours ahead of where I was, that is within the hour that I talked about this person. Moments like this you KNOW it's all 100% connected.

Dear Mr. Rutten, you do not know me nor do I know you beyond my screen or your fighting legacy, nevertheless, I am very glad you have come to Christ and have done something "Christians" don't realize they have to do: study and delve deeply into the roots of our faith and the history of Christianity, but, Mr. Rutten, with a deeper study of the history of our faith, you will realize the schismatic, innovative, and heretical spirit of Roman Catholicism. Go a little bit deeper and you shall find the one, true, holy, Catholic Church that our Lord Jesus Christ founded on Pentecost: the Orthodox Church! God bless you and your family, and may He lead us all to truth, so that you may come to our Mother, the Church.

Brother Bas! I really appreciate how you explain your faith. I have been exactly one of those loud mouths that point out the faults with the Catholic church and Pope. I am wrong for doing so. You made excellent points and I need to keep my mouth shut! As I have also learned, God gave me 2 eyes, 2 ears and only 1 mouth. So I need to watch and listen more.

I am also very happy for you, that you are putting great content out here for people. It's beautiful. I am a Muslim, London based, and having had the privilege to study Arabic, Islam, comparative religion/law and spending some time as a Christian as a kid and entering into lifelong study, before reverting to Islam. I was wondering if you were open to studying or considering Islam, reafing or listening to the Quran? I am sure that you will be aware that we believe in the prophet Jesus, his miraculous birth, and his return to earth before the Day of Judgement, yet we make no partner with God, and direct all worship to Him alone, never to any prophet nor angel nor saintly people, nor statue, stone nor other creation. I was wondering if you had considered this aspect and what your thinking was? Thank you.

Nice talk, Bas. I too was baptized Roman Catholic and fell away from the faith; but when I was called back, I found the Orthodox Church instead for a number of reasons. I respect devout Catholics as our estranged siblings in Christ, glory to God for all things. And a correction: the number of martyrs under Communism in the 20th century is in the millions, I've seen estimates around 12 million in the Eastern bloc. "Tens of thousands" only covers the number of clergy martyred in the USSR. We should not forget the magnitude of persecution that is possible, and that it happened not so long ago.

Hey brother! I’m so glad to see you are seeking God. Even though I know you can kick my butt with one hand tied behind your back, I must be bold and give you the truth, because I love you. More importantly God loves you. I was born and raised Roman Catholic. All I can say is, dig deeper into the truth of the Catholic Church. You are only scratching the surface. I left and renounce the Catholic Church many years ago. I don’t believe in denominations because there are no denominations in heaven. I don’t like labels. When someone ask me if I’m religious I tell them no. I describe myself as a Bible believing, holy spirit filled man of God. I will just give one example of the many reasons, why I left the Catholic Church. CONFESSION: millions of people go to a man, instead of God to confess their sins only to repeat the same sins the week after. Catholics live their lives in habitual sin, but once a week, after a few Hail Mary’s and our fathers, they get to start over from scratch and sin again. Wash, rinse and repeat. You only need common sense to see the truth in this one. If a wife cheats on her husband, and asks him for forgiveness, because he loves her, he will forgive her. Especially, if she is truly sorry. However, what if the wife continues to cheat on her husband? Every week she’s with a different man. Does the Husband just keep forgiving her? And is she truly sorry? No, she’s not sorry. If she was, she would stop doing it. It works the same way with God. I want to say so much more, but I don’t want to write a book in the comments. My advice to you brother, is to give the church a break for a while. Make your house the church, open up the Bible and read it for yourself. Pray, and ask the Lord to reveal all truth. I will be praying for you brother. Love you man.

geweldige kerel ben je man bedankt voor de video!

I'm protestant but feeling the tug towards becoming Catholic,my grandfather and father were Roman Catholic,I wasn't raised a Catholic,my dad split when I was a young child,my mum was atheist,but I was agnostic for most of my life,I got baptised 1 year past August,I was on fire for the Lord and was going to church every Sunday and attending church meetings. When I first started going to church,I think it was about my 4 time,the pastors wife spoke the words clay and iron over me,i didn't have a clue what she was talking about,I remember it well because the pastor repeated what she had just said to me,well obviously thinking that I'm stupid,when I got to the book of Daniel,when nebuchadnezzar had his dream about the statue with feet of clay and iron,I remembered what was said to me and fully understand what she meant,well she spoke those words into existence because my church attendance has been very poor,the only reason I still go is because of my group,I don't want to leave the church,I don't know what time do

Bas Thank you so much for standing up for God, in this age that takes courage most people do not have. I’ve met you once and your fighting style/ideas changed me for the better, and I respect you for that. Having said that I would be wrong for not sharing the reason Jesus Christ suffered and died on the cross. It was to pay the penalty of ours sins which is a literal place called hell. Jesus knew it was impossible for any man to live without sin and be worthy of or earn their way into heaven so He committed the ultimate and final sacrifice by shedding his blood and dying on the cross for a sinful world. If we could live in a way to earn heaven and stay out of hell Jesus didn’t need to die on that cross, but He did. We need to repent of our sins and ask Jesus to save us forgive us and make him lord of our lives at that point and not until that point we become a child of God and the Holy Spirit comes to live within us and we are “saved” I hope you are well sir, and thank you very much for years of entertainment.

Just another reason to be a Bas Rutten fan!

My parents had help from family to pay for my sister and me to go, but could only afford 1 year and our brothers remained in public school. I've heard the garbage about the Catholic Church has all the money and art and so on. They ask why don't they give it to people who need it, blah, blah, blah. It's frustrating, because you can't defend it when you see the mismanagement of money, stately homes for bishops and so much other nonsense. It's just hard trying to defend the True spiritual meaning behind the Church when we see human actions ruling poorly at every turn. It is a long hard road.

Go Bas. Love it!🙏
