Recorded at St. Mary Cathedral, Tokyo, Japan, on Sunday, Nov. 17, 2013. This video contains about 15 minutes of highlights from a 75-minute Mass. The Mass was entirely in Japanese.
Many love to make fun of the Catholic church, and say our masses are dry and dull. Right away, I could tell from the organ an d notes that I am listening to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. If the world only knew what a treasure we have in the Eucharist.

The liturgy is still beautiful, but the very fact that we have abandoned are beautiful churches and ornamentations of the last 2,000 years in favor of building these dull and sterile looking monstrosities in their place and call them Churches speaks volumes about what’s been done to our faith. Most Catholics no longer even really know their own faith anymore and they have no idea what really separates them from their Protestant neighbors.

When you are troubled and need comfort, walk into a church like this and immediately feel the presence of something greater than anything, embracing you! It's chilling comfort! When my mom was on her last days from cancer, I could see the discomfort from pain, not even morphine can stop! It was just a matter of hours, days, but suffering! All we could do was wait. One lunch break, I walked into St. Margaret's and lit a candle, just stood there staring up at Jesus on the cross. I said: Jesus, you come first in her daily life, hours of praying, never missed. If you're not sparing her life, then please take her now, because she's suffering. Shortly, at 10 pm I get a call from my brother in another state, "mom passed". I thanked Jesus for hearing me and now mom's safe with Him. ❤💙

There are indeed lots of examples of the Novus Ordo, which are solemn. A major part depends on the music and the use of the pipe organ. The conservative enjoys portraying the Novus Ordo as a failure, to justify the Tridentine Mass as the one and only authentic tradition. What is not said is that the Mass became a spectacle to be watched during the baroque period, from where the Liturgical Renewal at the end of the 19th century originated, returning to the liturgies of the Early Church, spearheaded by liturgists like J.Jungmann . Finally, there is a relation between worship and belief, between the theology of the church and the way the liturgy is celebrated. The Tridentine Mass reflects the clerical church, the Novus Ordo reflects a theology which describes the church as the People of God.

But that's the problem. The new mass reflects a new postmodernist theology, with origins in protestantism and inspired by archaeologism.

@@Jimmy73562 yet we are also bound to show respect and glory to God also in other forms, not just with the faith, also with actions, words etc. It would be like the Pharisees, as they only cared for the laws, the actions, they were empty in the faith, that doesn't mean that we can be empty in the law and in the actions as faith leads to works. Both faith and works are important, faith without works is blind, easy to do; work without faith is empty. But I do agree with the principle of the faithfuls that are the Church and not the building.
