Can anyone point me to any direction where I can get clarity to this yearning to becoming a catholic priest?
I'm definitely going to pray about it. How do I know for sure this is a genuine intention? Are there places I can go to that can help me synthesize just to be sure it's a devine call? Plus when & where can I apply?

Be sure that Jesus Christ has absolutely nothing to do with this move to serve in any of the churches of men.

Because Jesus Christ never asked any of His followers to build, nor organize, nor join churches in this world in His name.

Jesus Christ said that a little leaven(lie) leaves the whole lump. The very foundation on which your churches are built is a lie and these lies deceive people away from following God's Truth, as Jesus Christ warned.

ok, but what did Jesus mean with "Upon this rock, I'll build my church?"& wah you mean jesus never asked his followers to do the above whereas several bible passages contradict your opinion.

I think what many gloss over is the fact that Jesus Christ said, His Church will be built, not by hands of men, but by Himself.

His Church is built by Him, Jesus Christ, not by men. And certainly His Church is not of this world given that His Kingdom, which He calls men away from the world into, is also not of this world.

Bros just pray about your vocation and talk to the parish priest of your parish. Discuss with him about your yearning and he will be in a better position to advise you and recommend you to the bishop. Don't let these Protestants sway u from ur call if it's genuine

I am not a protestant at all. I am a follower of Jesus Christ alone and Nowhere is Jesus Christ, the one who you all claim as savior command any of what you do is His name.

Jesus Christ said those who belong to Him, and love Him, are those who obey His teachings (and commandments). So how can you think He glories in you doing that which He has not commanded pretending you do so in His name?

Do you intend to write off over 2000 years of the Christian evolution from a people persecuted for simply been Christians who eventually had to organise & protect themselves ? Ofc, christ already spoke of false prophets, wolves amongst us in sheep clothing, those who will call him christ & yet not make heaven. Don't you think there's is reason things are the way they are right now? 2023 AD & 2000 years from now don't you imagine christianity would have evolved into something beautiful that none of us would've imagined? Moreover, the purpose of been christ like to begin with is to evolve into a spiritual level where 0ne can have personal relationships with his or her God & while there are people like you who are far ahead in this Journey, you must exercise patience with those who are starting and encourage them with love and compassion irrespective of label or nomenclature of the person for christ came to die for the whole world, been christ like like is not an easy journey however it must be done and men shall one day evolve unto a compassionate loving spirit with the blood of christ at the centre.

Boss, I understand thanks for your kind words. There's just so much chaos in the Christian community nowadays that we spend so much time and energy and debating while we easily forget what is important; to love & to be the light & salt of the world. May the good lord grant us wisdom, knowledge & understanding to do his will.

1. Evolution? Jesus Christ never said His followers had defend themselves in any way. In fact, He commanded the opposite which is that they make no attempts to defend themselves from their enemies - Matthew 5 vs 38 - 48

2. The reason Christianity looks absolutely nothing like that which Jesus Christ taught His followers you mean?

God's Law is eternal, and Jesus Christ is God's Law and Truth for all those who are of the Kingdom of God. So when these same refuse to submit to and obey Jesus Christ, choosing instead to follow the doctrines and traditions of men instead, dishonoring God by their choice, what do you expect to happen?

3. My hope is that by then what is Christianity today would have been overthrown and replaced with God's Truth from 2000 years ago, God's Law so people don't continue to live and die meaninglessly pretending they did it in honor of God when it was all to the glory of the many false prophets and false teachers and their earthly kingdoms.

4. I am afraid that isn't what Jesus Christ said the purpose of being Christ-like is about. This is instead the hogwash your priests, mogs, and other motivational speakers feed you lot but has absolutely nothing to do with that which Jesus Christ taught His followers .

You can only know the Truth of God when you remove your focus from those around you to focus it squarely on God and what God says.

Junkie, the Bible you are reading now who did you think compiled it? It was complied by the Catholic and written by unknown people after “Jesus” die hundred of years ago.
All your understanding about the Bible are specially put there by those who set up the canonization.
All these “Jesus said” it was the Catholic that wanted him to say it, he said a lot of thing they only chose the one that suits the Catholic agenda.

This your Bible why not research about it, and look at the history of where this “Jesus” sayings come from.
If you reject those that complied the Bible, you reject your “Jesus” bwahahahah.
You are funny, are you not using one of the hundreds of VERSION of bibles they created.

Sure it serves those within its reach but in order to get that candle lit, and keep it lit, the candle owner keeps his attention fully on the one whose light it is that lights his candle, at all times.

Amen.
