Friends, we all strive to be spiritually great. We want to be magnanimous, great-souled men and women. But how do we get there? The Church offers a concrete seven-fold path, and that’s what Brandon Vogt and I discuss on today’s “Word on Fire Show” episode.
A listener asks, I’m coming back into the Church after a 15 year absence, and all the words [of Mass] have changed. What happened?

In 2020 I was angry and upset with the bishops and their handling of COVID by shutting down public Masses, angrily I thought about this and how much I missed receiving Jesus in the Eucharist. I thought about those who were sick, alone in nursing homes “What would Mother Theresa do?” I thought “Why isn’t God doing anything about this?” I heard a voice from deep inside, that said, I made you for this purpose. I began to cry, and since then have been bringing the Eucharist to the homebound - what a blessing it has been for me!

Thank you so much, Bishop Barron! I love these 2 points of your talk. 1) We are not Angels, we have real physical body. Since I always hear some high educated Christians say they do not need church to tell them what to do, they are able to talk and hear Holy Spirit directly talk to them! Your statement gave a good reason 2) There are two types of poor people, one is the intellectual poor and the other is the material poor. For sure , your work is for the intellectual poor. In this society a lot of intellectual people have suffered spiritual poor although they have rich material life, who are the people gain the world lost their soul.

God bless Bishop Barron for his videos "instructing the ignorant" like me. I need to type up a list of the Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy and tape it above my desk to encourage me to perform them. In Pope Benedict XVI's encyclical Caritas in Veritate (Love in Truth), section 7, Pope Benedict XVI wrote that to love another person is to both (1) will the good of the other (which is the theological virtue of love) AND (2) take effective steps to achieve that good. Performing Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy are examples of taking steps to achieve "a" key good of another person and a good of oneself (in being more loving).

@patriciagriffin2216 3 месяца назад

Digging to uncover those doubts in people is a very important point! Our society is so "me" focused, and not wanting to intrude or impose on others. There's good in that, but we should be concerned with where people are mentally and spiritually. We shouldn't badger, but we should ask. Often, those suffering doubts want someone to dig with them a little bit. When the question is asked that strikes the nerve, they'll open up and confide in you if they sense you care about their well being.

You can see how the spiritual works quickly seem abstract when separated from the corporal. But in the Lord's prayer, bread and forgiveness are mentioned in the same sentence. Same in every single Apostle, love of God and neighbour in the same breath (John), helping the poor brother and blessing him in one warning (James).

"Counsel the doubtful. Doubt is a form of questioning and poverty." On the other side, is certainty a form of arrogance? God has not given to me the direct evidence and presence that can to lead to legitimate certainty. At the moment, I think a genuine approach might be "You're doubtful? I'm not as sure as I want to be myself. Let's find out."

@oliveralexandre3607 3 месяца назад

Excellent Your Grace but Please, be honest with our returning friend from NYC! The US and UK bishops (before your time!) translated the liturgy superbly and deliberately Not slavishly to the Latin but more with the original Greek and Aramaic in mind…and their own flock at the time! Hence ‘the Lord be with you’ was responded by “and also with you”; not ‘and with your spirit’, which sounds in English more like an advert for Gordons gin! Those of us old enough to have served the Tridentine Mass at school still love it and make our way to Brompton when visiting London but realize that we are not alone and Pope John XXXII had a job to do. The Curia’s new ‘we speak English better than you’ effort was dreadful and the bishops were rightly horrified but told to keep shtum and obey, which they have done with excuses such as yours… what else can you do? In Christ, OliverA

Thank you, your Excellency. I have a question. With a lot of our Bishops around the world and some of the ambiguous statements from our Holy Father, it is becoming harder and more blurred on how and when to admonish the sinner. Honestly, it is becoming harder to tell someone when they are in sin when our Bishops and Priests make unclear statements. Please, with whatever influence you have, push for clarity in our Church and proper guidance and leadership to your people. God bless you and may God bless His Holy Church.

The world has to pass away and God's word will remain. It is up to lay people to turn to bl mother for holy courage and go out and do it. Take courage. To live for Christ is also to die for Him. When we accept Christ the holy spirit takes over any other work without the holy spirit is not of God. It's only good works. Talk to Jesus about any action we serve. Jesus will hear many many many say but I helped the sick homeless hungry etc - & He will say get out I never knew you

He’s said this time and time again. By the way, id recommend taking the log out of your eye before you mention the spec in anyone else’s. You shouldn’t be preaching at all as you seem ready to point out everyone else’s deficit and you won’t bring anyone to Christ that way. As Jesus instructed fasting and praying is the only one to heal some, why don’t you challenge yourself to do that if you love the homosexual community as you say you are eager for their correction. And when you refuse to do that, ask yourself why you act like the Pharisee? It is love that heals, not judgement

Is admonishing the sinner a person of your own faith? Would you see that that is what is happening those of different Catholic "sides" right now? I don't know how to name them but one side has been referred to as "traditionalists", in terms of a Latin Mass, as opposed to the Novus Ordo, some of whom do not like any music but organ accompanied, or chant acapella. Isn't this kind of admonishment from both sides to the other one of the most fractious problems we are facing right now?

Thank you Bishop Barron. I enjoyed your talk on "Seven Ways to be Spiritually great! Too busy trying to get there to be bothered about ,"great". Decades ago a Holy Priest, taught me prayers on works of mercy. I can confirm that indeed works of mercy are not as you say, "a walk in the park!". Rather, they have ruined my life and my so called family! In fact the result has given me + mine, with abundant hard work, at least twenty plus penetential years. As if religion cared or even the deluded religiousously ambitious. How dare a society use people in such an astonishing fraudulent negligent and disrespectful way! Remember, :"as you do unto others"....", agreed? No worries as God sees it all. As for the Love i.e. God's Love for His people, I really don't see much of that about. In fact not even from the Priests and higher up! In fact some of them, like some people would mistakenly, rearrange such "Love" to mean affection! In the name of Jose, what chance do we have when even Holy Priests are so ignorant! Any way, I am just confirming that I did enjoy your talk although recently these things you refer to, are just everyday ordinary outputs or part of one's existence. Sometimes it is more than hard to take in the utter meanness of some so called Christians. Some are even jealous of you/one, singing the Praise of God in utter honest love! ( I am certainly not referring to a Priest there).Can you believe that or will you stick up for them the way you did when a stupid young Priest, whom they had me pray for, for two years, twice (with the help of a parishoner) put me into shock! May God continue to Bless and Love you. Thank you Have a great life! Amen Glory to God in the Highest level of Love forever. ❤❤❤

Thank you Bishop Barron and God Bless you too through the Immaculate Heart of both Jesus and Mary. Through such a Holy vision, I can honestly confirm, what Holy wonderful amazing Sacredness They are. I am always so grateful to the many who help me to get through, on the journey to final and complete fulfillment in God, especially when difficult times or experiences take place. Thanks be to God, that through Him and some of His creation, I can against all odds, manage to get there and miraculously, keep with Him. Alleluia! Praise the,Lord eternally. Just goes to confirm that prayers for the living and the dead are indeed effective! Thank you too. Amen Glory to God in the Highest level of Love forever ❤❤❤

I run into troublesome people constantly, there is no helping them. It’s a shame their souls will be gone into fire. Also, how do we argue against Protestants and other denominations that say you can’t pray for the dead? They use that argument against me all the time when I’m discussing the Apocrypha.

@layabout 3 месяца назад

Whenever I am questioned on this by Protestants I bring up the context of why Luther removed 2 Maccabees from the Protestant canon. Luther debated Erasmus on praying for the dead and when Erasmus used 2 Maccabees to support the practice scripturally Luther's opinion on the canonicity of the book changed. Other books that Protestants consider to be apocryphal were removed by Jewish authorities because they contain unmistakable prophecies of Christ, like Wis 2:1, and it is these authorities that Luther cites when defining his canon. Because most Protestants do not have a grasp of history, their response to this is usually just that it is not in "the text," but because we have demonstrated that what they consider to be the inspired Word of God and what they consider to not be is built on sand, at this point they will typically disengage out of cognitive dissonance.

@LostArchivist 3 месяца назад

Why do you doubt that God can help them? Remember God saves and converts people's hearts not us. Do not rely on your own efforrs, but turn to God in trust and love and for Love of God, love of them. They can be helped, but they need the Divine Physician. Please do not give up on them, there are souls that the Lord desires each of us to work the fields in and pray for them and plead the Lord give His grace and salvation to. Trust Him. God bless you. Amen.

People tends to pray mostly for oneself and loved one’s and others 🌎, well being and happiness… comfort, health, healing, resources, safety, and peace… strength to resist evil temptations to do wrong, in words and in deeds, and strength to be able to endure and overcome, whatever comes their way that could cause pains, sufferings, tears… 🙏 Just like Jesus, who overcame the world. 🙏 = *Praying for the living and the dead… esp. for those living deep in the dark, more than others… and esp. for the dead, who lived their past lives in the darkest path… *that we could all 🌏 have more chance to receive forgiveness and mercy from our Lord God, at the final judgement. ❤️🥰🙏 Praying for them, for our prayers might help them, through the Holy Spirit, who guides and teach, that they might realize to recognize opportunities presented to them towards making some changes towards the path of light… otherwise the world will always be circling in troublesome situations… and 🌍 will never be in peace. 😞 🤔 So, at the end, only some will be saved 😞 😭 🙏God have mercy.🙏

Cause Godself is more than energy simple or Soul Divine or Knowledge recognized not God is all that is and we're part of He we're only his image and likeness and God is the all more who's who's exist

Please try to get through at least a few videos without a dig at "liberal Christianity", whatever that is. Clearly the corporal and spiritual works are not to be separated on any level. For example, it's a spiritual work of mercy to warn those people who are on a dangerous spiritual path, and the most obvious of those today are the decision makers leading us into massive social inequality and the collapse of life on earth.
