What Happens After We Die? - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Рет қаралды 375,668

3 ай бұрын

Friends, this week, on the Third Sunday of Easter, we have a passage from that magnificent twenty-fourth chapter of Luke-one of the appearances of the risen Christ to the Apostles. When we’re talking about the Resurrection, we’re talking about the central point of Christian faith, the hinge upon which the whole of Christianity turns. So to understand what we’re dealing with here is exceptionally important. What I want to do is reflect on the different views about what happens to us when we die that were floating around the eastern Mediterranean in the first century-and how none of them is on offer here.

If Bishop Barron is speaking to your heart and you are not yet a confirmed Catholic, please go to your local parish church and join the RCIA program. At 55, I was Baptized and confirmed on Easter and it has meant the world to me. Just dive right in, join the Body of Christ, you will not regret it!

Your unwavering passion for the faith, your intolerance for dumbing down Catholicism's deep intellectual tradition, and so much more played an integral part in my conversion. I pray that others continue to find their way to the church and I believe your work will continue to help others hear the call of Christ. May God bless you sir.

As Bishop Barron says, we believe in the resurrection of the body... At the same time, I can't help but recall what was said on Ash Wednesday- "remember you are dust, and from dust you shall return" (as we receive the ashes)....

@wardjaeger8954 3 ай бұрын

Indeed, this is part of the curse of Original Sin that we inherit as human beings (Genesis 3:19). We say these words on Ash Wednesday to become painfully aware of our sinfulness. Lent is the season where we clothe ourselves is sackcloth and ashes, like the people of Nineveh, in order to repent of our sins. But the liturgical calendar does not stay in Lent. “The wages of sin are death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23). We would have “returned to dust” in our sin, but Jesus’ death and resurrection have actually gained for us a life even after death. That is why Easter is the Solemnity of solemnities, because we celebrate the immensity of God’s love which gives an eternal life we could never have achieved on our own. All that remains is to accept our place in the heavenly banquet, even in the present moment. Happy Easter season! Christ is risen, alleluia!

I can count on one hand how many priests/ministers/evangelists I have ever taken to heart in my lifetime and still have a few fingers left over. I would like to Bishop Barron to discuss in depth "the end of time." I do not think what is in the bible about the end of time is what most people today think it means. It supposedly means God presiding over a just earth now, God's kingdom on earth being actualised. Okay, if I am correct, why has not that happened by now?? Jesus died over 2K years ago. I am nearing the end of my own life. How many believers have lived and died now? At what point is "the end of time" arriving??

@kevinduthoy9727 3 ай бұрын

Love this topic and so well presented; however, at least for me, the explanation did not directly answer the title question of what happens to us when we die. Rather, it does wonderfully answer the question what happens when we are resurrected. I hope you will consider doing an important post-script on this homily addressing what happens to us between death and our resurrection. Thank you, Bishop Barron, for teaching on so many important matters of our faith.

Yes, this is helpful and Bishop Barron is one of the few bishops here talking this way specially online. But in all honesty when we die, our spirit does leave our body and the body is eventually buried or cremated in the Earth and does turn to dust. But he’s saying that’s not the end and eventually we will be reunited with our bodies. They will come back to life, as Jesus did, in a glorified eternal, perfect state. So he is our example, and definitely our hope.

For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all Ecclesiastes 9:5 Your dead ones will live. A corpse of mine-they will rise up. Awake and cry out joyfully, YOU residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of mallows, and the earth itself will let even those impotent in death drop in birth. Isaiah 26:19 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out" John 5:28,29 Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. He that faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life; and everyone that is living and exercises faith in me will never die at all. Do you believe this?” She said to him: “Yes, Lord; I have believed that you are the Christ the Son of God, the One coming into the world. John 11:25-27

Jesus Christ has answered this question very clearly:: Luke 20:34 John 6:28-29 John 6:39-44 John 11:23-24 John 12:48 1 Corinthians 15:51-54 The common thread is “on the last day.” So it appears that we are to wait. It’s that simple, unless you want to puzzle over the compression of time straight to the last day at the moment of death. In the meantime life has its troubles of the day. Jesus warned us about worrying for tomorrow, so let’s all hold fast to the commandments and precepts he has set before us.

ST. POPE JOHN PAUL II: : “The love of Christ is more powerful than sin and death. St. Paul explains that Christ came to forgive sin and that his love is greater than any sin, stronger than all my personal sins or those of anyone else. This is the faith of the Church. This is the Good News of God’s love that the Church proclaims throughout history and that I proclaim to you today: God loves you with an everlasting love. He loves you in Christ Jesus, his Son.”

It’s an impressive feat in our culture to get 11,000 people to voluntarily stop and contemplate the fact of death. Most people live like it doesn’t apply to them and nothing has consequences.

The truth is that we simply do not know empirically and conclusively what happens after we die. Not even Paul in First Corinthians 15 analyzes the difference between "soma pneumaticos" and "soma phuchikos." Eschatologically, life after physical death continues, but how and in what manner are subject to speculation. Not even the Council Fathers at Nicaea or Constantinople offered any analysis or explanation, but merely stated the standard belief: "et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum et vitam venturi saeculi."
