ST. TERESA OF LISIEUX: “How great a joy it is to know that God makes allowances for our weaknesses and understands perfectly the frailty of our humanity. God our Father loves us always, absolutely, unfailingly, eternally.”
to Catholicity-uw2yb, the frailty of the humanity of Bishop Robert Barron is evident when he is not keeping in uncertainty of his belief the inseparability and qualitative equality of:
(a) identity-roles of consecrated celibate marriage vowed to man in Christ and consecrated male female marriage vowed to God,
(b) roles of helpers of the family members consenting in uncertainty of their belief to be joined in these consecrated marriages.
This in uncertainty of belief is termed the "multiplier" as that of economic role processes and non-economic identity progress.
This not keeping by Bishop Barron was on 20 July 2022 in his purporting presuming "a higher way of love" of consecrated celibate marriage to consecrated male female marriage then corrected by his keeping this on 20 December 2023 on the reference point of Pope Francis' consecrated celibate marriage on 17 June 2021, his synod on synodality from November 2021 and his approval of Fiducia Supplicans, DDF, 18 December 2023.
I feel peaceful listening to Bishop Barron! He is truly a man of God!
I love listening to Bishop Barron.
St. Paul spent so much time in jail because he was preaching the faith and people didn’t like what he said.
Me too!😊
Watching these videos is a great way to begin my day and put me in the right frame of mind and fully spiritually awake.
Clear and faithful teaching. So refreshing.
Thank you very much Bishop I like your talks very much
Barron is our Paul today.
That's not fair on Barron! The bishop is considerably less delusional , less opinionated and more likeable than Paul. I could even guess the bishop might share a beer or two with some gay folks, which Paul would never do.
Not even close.
So thankful for you good Bishop
My heart goes to Rev. Bishop Barron such a beautiful homily everything's a good 💯 % intact in what was happening in the world right now about in our lives 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
So beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for inspiring talks dear bishop.
PRAISE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST ❤
A peaceful hard hitting message. Hits you right between the eyes.
This shows how polarizing Paul was, even today. This has been out for a week, and only 26 comments which is very unlike the Bishops other videos. Are people scared of Pauls teachings?He said some very hard things yes but I believe the Bishop, where would the Church have gone with out his conversion?
I agree. I'm grateful for Bishops guidance to our Father in heaven.
The bishop is discussing history. Most Christians know next to nothing about real Christian history, hence the dearth of commentary.
to Andrew Brennan, Paul's "opinion" in his helper of the family role at 1Cor7:25-34 in groomed error polarised roles of helpers of the family.
Pope Francis' consecrated celibate marriage identity-role vowed to man in Christ in the keeping in uncertainty of his belief of its inseparability and qualitative equality with consecrated male female marriage identity-role vowed to God on 17 June 2021 on the reference point of Mary at Lk 1:29-45 and Mt 1:24 corrected this polarisation by advantageously combining these helpers of the family roles.
This in uncertainty keeping is termed the "multiplier" of economic processes and non-economic progress.
So beautiful
What, yet another interesting twist on the Gospel. I grew up thinking: "What is up with that Saul- he had to be struck blind before he followed the Lord?"
Phffsha!! Only took me 3/4s of my life- and I still need to pray everyday and not hear. Re-read in the light of the Crucifixion and Resurrection. Christ is both Man and Devine- as would be his blood. Thought Mark was the Evangelist- wasted Catholics school. Beautiful- Thanks Bishop Barron.
When are you going to become Cardinal?????
Amen allelujah
χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ
Paul a vision driven missioner defended the risen lord
Love the pod 2>>2 feet
Amen 🙏
Paul was imprisoned for such a long time because he and his family were also Roman citizens, and therefore had the legal rights of a Roman citizen. He could be convicted, but he also had the right to appeals, which he used to the fullest extent and was able to walk freely and teach the word of God throughout Roman controlled territories until his final appeal was denied.
He was then beheaded.

because religious leaders and world kings put him under law judgement.
Procedurally. # 1 ID. #2 YOUR indictment. # 3 et et et
Why are the writings of a self-appointed apostle of Christ elevated to "The Word of God"?
People, people, people.
Why can't God just send us all a Damascus vision?
Because he doesn't exist other than in the minds of those controlling the people.
Oh, but I thought God wanted a personal relationship with all of us. Did Saul of Tarsus deserve the vision? No. Must just be a BS religion then.
Because then there wouldn’t be need of having faith. That’s how it will be at the hour of everyone’s death . We will see God and will not have to believe anymore but only those who believed in Jesus during their life in earth will be able to live with God Heaven . God doesn’t condemn anybody but in our free will we can chose Him or reject Him . The choice is ours.
@@anitaklara7428 So when God literally showed himself to the entire nation of Israel, or to the 500 after the resurrection, did God destroy their faith? It seems he can do it, and did it all the time, he just chooses not to anymore. Why?
@@VulcanLogic God is above us in His mind and in everything . He is the Alpha & the Omega . He in His wisdom can decide to whom, when and where to show Himself.For He let people see Himself resurrected so there is proof of His resurrection and so they as a first witness can tell the next generations about it. God can do it God can decide because He is God. He was He is and He is coming. He has existed always and for our human small minds those things are too big to fully grasp or understand until we are here. But in Heaven as Jesus said we will understand everything clearly.

How refreshing to hear the bishop speak of the historical character Paul! I agree that
"none of us would be here without the conversion of St. Paul." ie christianity would not exist as it is today if there had been no conversion.
The dramatic and rather theatrical "road to Damascus" conversion story, supposedly witnessed by many, resulting in Paul's blindness for 3 days and a complete change in Paul's agenda, is well documented in Acts. Yet Acts was written by we don't know whom, many years after the events described. The (anonymous) author was not a witness to the events...if he was he would have said so.
What is more, surely Paul, who wrote hundreds of pages in the New Testament, must have documented the momentous occasion of his own conversion? No! The bishop implies this is so, yet I challenge anyone to find anywhere where Paul directly mentions it. Paul is silent about the supposed event that changed his life. This means it is highly likely that event never actually occurred.
When one reads Paul's letters it is very obvious that there is almost nothing about a once living flesh and blood character named Jesus. Paul barely mentions what Jesus supposedly said or did. Nor is Paul, in his own letters, interested in the surviving family or followers of Jesus. (Galatians 2;1-14.) Paul even writes that although people once knew Jesus in the flesh we should no longer think of him that way, or words to that effect (2 Corinthians 5;16.) Paul was a man with his own agenda… he was hell bent on creating a new religion based on his own Christology, and the core beliefs and philosophy of a once living Jewish Jesus were totally irrelevant to him.
The author of the book of Acts had a need to draw a connection between Paul's Christ and the once living recently departed Jesus. The synoptic gospels had to equated with Paul's Christ. This author was trying to manufacture a plausible story, one with historical roots, out of a theological mess of ideas that Paul had created. Hence the fictional road to Damascus conversion story in which the dead Jesus met Paul so as to become Paul's Christ.
All of this takes some intellectual effort to appreciate. I hope this channel is interested in conversations about real history, and this comment won't be deleted.
Why would Saul regard the early Christians as heretics or evil. They at worst would have been a sect within rabbinic Judaism which they practiced
Paul created out of whole cloth a new belief system regarding the Messiah and his function just as he created out of whole cloth a new belief system regarding monotheism which was anathema to that of rabbinic Judaism which tolerates no divisions in the Godhead
Paul had to badmouth traditional Judaism because he was working for the Roman government and was trying to stop the first Jewish war.
Why should we ask apostle Paul?
Shouldn’t we ask Christ ?
The Spirit of Christ spoke and wrote through the apostle Paul, as He did through all the apostles and prophets, both Old and New Testaments.
Follow Christ, thanks to those that gave their lives to teach you, like Paul (why not read Acts & see what God has to tell you - "ask Paul")
Mmmmm, you have opened up a can of worms there. Christ was largely Paul's creation.
Saul trained in "rhetoric and philosophy" was not trained in chemistry, organic and inorganic, as is Pope Francis in his consecrated celibate marriage vowed to man in Christ, or in economics as was Colin Clark in his consecrated male female marriage vowed to God also trained in chemistry.
Colin Clark with his son trained in both roles, joined in both identities successively male female then celibate on the death of his wife, transmitted the reference point of Mary at Lk 1:29-45 and Mt 1:24 to Pope Francis' consecrated celibate marriage in it keeping in uncertainty of his belief on 17 June 2021 its inseparability and qualitative equality with consecrated male female marriage in it ensuring in the case of Cardinal Becciu + 9 Vatican state citizens/employees embezzlements of his procreation role gift charity donations and simultaneously insuring in the case of the "Zan" Italian Parliament anti-homophobia bill unacceptable risk of fraud on his need of union of its identity.
The Didache reports that self proclaimed apostles hustled people for money. Paul is a self proclaimed apostle. You know there is something off if someone rejected the church, but then starts to proclaim it’s truth and then says “trust me bro, this is from god”. What? God had to show up for Saul, but now we are required to “have faith” in his preaching?
My guess is Paul noticed that the other apostles were able to live off their converts. Paul wanted a piece of the action, making tents is hard work. No, I would say Paul spent a lot of time in jail for larceny.
I agree, he made a living out of promoting his own theological (and political) agenda. He was also probably paid to do so by the Roman government.
@@marvalice3455 yes, faith sits outside of logic.
Thanks for your Biden vote Barron.
st paul liked the jail food?? hahaha
Another interpretation based on the knowledge of today is that Saul suffered from temporal lobe seizures .All his actions are,by todays psychologest standards, clearly an indication this condition. Doubt this,look up temporal epilepsy . Peace
The men traveling with him, who led him into Damascus, also saw the great light and/or heard the voice. What type of seizure brings about that experience? If you can't believe by what he says, perhaps consider believing by the countless miracles God performed through him after his conversion. Peace to you
@@drpaulschoppe So writes the anonymous author of Acts. None of them, nor Paul himself, documented their experience....because it didn't happen.
What rubbish?😮😮😮😮😮,😅😮😮😮😮😮
What ignorance?
@@leomullinsYou have a problem.Yourare brainwashed in religious mysticism.
Paul should have spent time in Rikers correction centre for crimes against humanity..changing sides does not exonerate him..amen
Jesus Christ disagrees with you.
God can ‘exonarate’ anyone
Amen, the forgiveness and mercy of The Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is perpetual, infinite and eternal.
With absolute certainty, we all need to be exonerated. God's mercy awaits. . . .prayers for your peace & perseverance as you seek Christ
Yes! If Paul had stuck to being Jewish the world today would be a happier and safer place.
