Fruits of the Spirit, Works of the Flesh - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Рет қаралды 209,308

Күн бұрын

Friends, we come to the Feast of Pentecost, the great celebration of the Holy Spirit. I want to focus on our second reading from the fifth chapter of St. Paul’s Letter to the Galatians, which I’ve used for years in spiritual direction. What you find there are what Paul calls “the fruit of the Spirit,” which he contrasts with “the works of the flesh.” Maybe you’re struggling and wondering, “What should I do? What path do I take?” Whatever is giving rise to the fruits of the Spirit in you is the path you want-and whatever is giving rise to the works of the flesh, stay away from.
Mass Readings:
Reading 1 - Gn 11:1-9
Psalm - 104:1-2, 24, 35, 27-28, 29, 30
Reading 2 - Rom 8:22-27
Gospel - Jn 7:37-39

Grateful for the spiritual nourishment. Thank you, Lord, for this moment. Blessings upon Barron’s endeavors. This man fearlessly preaches, revealing his devotion to God! Bishop Robert Barron’s unwavering message, delivered without compromise, reflects his deep faith. His impact on my transformation has been immense. I was once burdened by a €30,000 loan for my son’s brain surgery (Oscar), but now, thanks to an investment of €9,500, I receive a weekly payout of €55,500. God is good! Thanks to mrs Kristin Nels.

In this day and age, we have to be careful not to confuse Love with 'tolerance'. Many people today would say that if you are intolerant of someone's beliefs, then you are 'biggoted', 'hateful', 'spreading hate', etc. However, you can truly love a person, as the good Bishop says here, 'will the good of another' without agreeing with their views. In fact disagreeing with some views that are out there today, may be the loving thing to do.... Thank you again, good Bishop! Your weekly insights are True food for the soul! ❤

Thank you joyful message Bishop Barron. When I was younger; I totally had jealousy, anger, strife & impurity. I still struggle w/ lack of self control. But! I am witness to God’s spirit taking away my desire for opiates and other mind bending substances: the desire is not there! It is a daily struggle with stupid stuff such as scrolling and seeing what others say on line about (whatever.) I’ll never be free of tendency to sin, but at least I know Christs’ love for me; I have believing friends, and am in contact with good priests and sisters. God is real! But we have to daily affirm our belief! Bishop Barron is a light on a hill.❤️‍🔥

Selfishness. Everything the Bishop described here has its roots in that most basic flaw within our nature. I struggle with being patient. A while back I made a decision to consider times when I became impatient as opportunities from the Holy Spirit to practice patience not an opportunity to get upset. I still struggle, but not as much, not so long as I remember that.

@paulrubio3918 11 күн бұрын

There are some wondrous points here, especially the idea of the love that the Father and Son experience toward each other that results in the Holy Spirit, Who enters us and makes it possible for us to bear the fruits listed in Galatians 5. And we bear this fruit as we seek to will the good of the other, Bishop Barron's oft-repeated point. Though as sinners we're caught in wrongful ways, the Holy Spirit gives us the opportunity to leave it and live a fruitful life that reveals God's character.

3:01 Thank you, Bishop Barron. Could it be that Love is Both Will And Feeling? In other words, could it be that only in Love that both Will and Subjective Feeling of Satisfaction coincide and reconcile? “He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I AM WELL PLEASED; listen to him.”” Matthew‬ ‭17‬:‭5‬ “And he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and prayed, saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.” Luke‬ ‭22‬:‭41‬-‭43‬

Did I experience joy or jealousy? Am I at peace at the end of the day? Did I demonstrate patience with the troublesome? Was I kind to someone? Was I generous or stingy? Did I control myself and my passions enough to love others?
