Are You Blinded by Cities of Sin? - Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermon
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 окт 2021
- Friends, in today’s Gospel, we hear the marvelous story of the healing of blind Bartimaeus-an icon of tremendous power and a sacred picture of the spiritual life and the process of salvation. We all find ourselves, in our need of Christ, in this image, as our own blindness distorts our vision of spiritual reality and the meaning of life.

Sure you won’t see this
but after 31 years. No one has come even close to being what you are in my life. A way for God to speak through you… is such a source of extreme strength to this recovering addict. Thank you.
Bishop, I was baptized today, and your ministry was fundamental in my conversion. Today's gospel is very relatable to me and hearing your interpretation of it brought me great peace and consolation - it was a tough process!
Welcome home! 😊
@Curtis VanH I think you replied at the wrong thread mate, just a heads up, cheers
Thank you dear margarita yyyyi

Welcome sister you won't regret it. You will start to feel the love of our lady, MOTHER OF GOD.
Bishop Barron, I am Bukenya Innocent from Uganda. Your sermon is spiritually nourishing and indeed I have always found your work very instrumental in strengthening and shaping my life of faith. Thanks a lot and may God bless you abundantly.

Glory to Jesus
What a Great sermon today!!!
Because of You and your videos ( word on fire ) 7 years ago I became a Catholic 🙏 I live in Texas I would love to see you in person.
I pray you are the next conservative pope🙏 God bless You 🙏
"We're all in the same boat, and we're all seasick." 😂 nothing beats GK Chesterton's humor and clever turns of phrase
Bishop Barron is the touchstone of catechesis.
Pax Christi.
Gracias Padre, Dios lo bendice a usted también!!!

Would you mine sharing your experience about barron with me just want to know more
This is THE most powerful sermon I have ever heard, from you and from anyone else. It speaks directly to my own experience, and I can attest to the truth in these words. Thank you, Bishop Barron, both for the message, and the carefully chosen wording.
Brilliant, thank you
I agree..❤️✝️
As a recovering alcoholic I can certainly attest to the need for a higher power. So blessed to have God as that Power!
Great !
Bishop Barron, you indeed inspired me.
I have read this story many times and never was I able to see it the way you have just shown it to me. I haven't been to confession in years and over the last week it seems I am being led that way in everything I read and watch. Thank you Bishop for helping to open my eyes and regain my sight. It's time to throw off that old cloak and make sure I'm on the right path.
It took me many years to come back to confession--and I can tell you it is very wonderful--just go, and the priest will help you--it's so life-giving.
I am praying for you that you will JUST DO IT! You will be so filled with Spirit when you do!
Please, please, please, go to Confession. It is a gift of such power and mercy. It should never be neglected. If I were your friend, if I knew you, I would offer to take you myself and hold your hand all the way to the confessional door, if that's what you needed. Call a priest, make an appointment, and just do it. I will say a prayer for you.
Yeah, go embaress yourself in front of some paedophile protector.
@@kevinkelly2162........Kevin, maybe you were deeply heart by a "pedophile protector" and consequently your feelings make sense. Don't let that small percent of evil "priests and bishops" who have learned to use the Church to practice their evil. Jesus suffered much greater evil and indignities from the "Church" leaders of the old covenant (Temple religion of the Old Testament). The High Priest himself had Jesus tortured and crucified but Jesus never turned from the God (the Father) who created the old covenant Temple religions and priesthood. Do not let evil men in the Church turn you from the love and mercy of your creator. Like Jesus, forgive those who harmed your and turned you from the only source of salvation, forgiveness and grace--Jesus Christ.
I've heard in my head for years now. "What do you want from me? "
I've been pagan most my life. I've felt a pull towards God for years.
Then I watched The Chosen. I cried like a baby and begged God to help me. For forgiveness.
Now I know it was God.
While I looked for him everywhere.
He was there all the time.
Asking, "WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?"
God bless you and welcome home!
@@judyv3370 Thank you
That is beautiful 🤩 praying for you ✝️
@gigithebackyardherbalist What a touching story. God bless and keep you.❤️🙏🏾
The Chosen is something else🙌🏾. The last scene in episode one, series one, when Jonathan Roumie, as Jesus, calls Mary by her real name and starts quoting Isaiah “ Fear not for I am the Lord your God”.. ending with “
You are mine”.. I was a mess. Tears upon tears.
@@madgiemadgie9128 thank you. THE CHOSEN is amazing and an answer to many prayers, I believe. Hugs to you
As one who suffers from spiritual pride I thank you for opening my eyes
And how many of us thought this gospel was just another story about a miracle Jesus performed on some dude? The richness of the gospels never cease to amaze me. Thank you for "opening my eyes", Bishop Barron.
Thank you for your work
This was incredibly educational and a "must listen to" homily. What a gift! I will never speak the words "Christ have mercy" the same. Thank you Bishop Barron for your wisdom and ability to teach the laity.
Amen
Amen!
Fantastic. Seemed like Bishop Barron was speaking directly to me. But, as he said, we all are “Everyman.” The Bishop is the best!
I love inviting us to answer the questions right now, which led me to recommit my life to our Lord Jesus Christ. Another beautiful and powerful sermon by Bishop Barron. Thank you, God, for this gifted priest. We are so blessed to have him in our lives.
Bishop Barron, by these really powerful Sermons and the many contributions you make to the Church and the world you are truly becoming a *'still point' that calls and heals humanity.*
Amen
@@fides4758pppppQQQ₩q
Mary what does it matter? It’s people like you who will be deceived and follow the anti messiah system. Leave the Christian system now before it’s to late. The blacks, Mexicans, Filipinos and native Americans and others are the real Hebrews. Read revelations chap 2 9. We are still under the mosaic law.
@@stevenm8959
Do you have something to comment on the Sermon's subject matter?
@Curtis VanH
Do appreciate your presence. May Jesus who said, "I am the light of the world" shine his light on you.
God is good all the time, all the time God is good. I surrender totally to your Will O my sweet Lord! Praise the Lord for his goodness to me! Alleluia!Amen
I love Jesus when he already knows who needs forgiveness and He's Heart is filled with Grace to pour out and all we need to do is ask the Lord!!!
Thank you dear Bishop for this wonderful Gospel proclamation. God bless you!!!
Thank you dear Bishop Barron. I rarely manage to stay focused for more than 5 min but your sermon got me truly captivated.
Not easy to follow Christ, I am not even sure I fully get it, but I hope that your words will stay with me for some time.
Blind man, city of sin, Jesus at the centre, and there is us here and now too. Christ have mercy and keep healing us from the blindness. Amen.
Thank you so much for this very important message for the "spirit of our age" - that sin binds, blinds, multiplies and deadens. In Christ alone is our cure. Kyrie Eleison.
Glory to Jesus
May God bless you, Isreal the USA and may all glory be to Our Lord Jesus the Most High
My heart breaks for those that don’t know Jesus, I sincerely feel a pain in my heart for those that don’t know the gift 💝 of the Holy Spirit ✝️🙏🏽 🕊
Glory to Jesus
Would you mine sharing your experience about barron with me just want to know more
@@letlovelead4768 extremely spiritual and articulate and describing God the Holy Spirit Jesus the Trinity everything about Catholicism I can understand I’ve been a Catholic all my life but never could understand it all but Bishop Baron clears it up for me all you have to do is listen to him a few times and you’ll start to understand that’s all I can say I would like also to say that I’ve had a near death experience many many years ago decades ago I stop my heart stopped on the operating table during reproductive surgery and I can tell you there is a heaven and a hell And the purgatory a didn’t see the fathers face or the Sun’s face I saw their feet and I saw the radiant light around them and if I had looked any longer I knew I would not go back to my body that I would stay with that magnetic force that Aurora that themed out from the father and the son and the Holy Spirit I know it sounds crazy but you just have to have lived through it to understand
Wow you got it alright ma do you have a RUclips channel
Thank you Bishop Barron for mentioning the 12 step programs. I cannot tell you the number of devote Christians I’ve known that participated in these wonderful programs because they could not “SEE” with only their faith practice alone. In other words, they were unable to break the cycle of their addiction without the unique viewpoints the 12 steps offer. Blessings to you!

This sermon hits home as I once again struggle with hard core drug addiction and a lifestyle which walks hand and hand so naturally with.knowing there is a way gives hope.Son of David have mercy on me
We are blessed to have Bishop Barron with us. He is a living saint. Glory be to God!
Thank you Bishop Barron for another insightful and inspiring message and peace be with you.
Wow you got it alright Laura

Bishop Barron, you are a great gift to the church. Thank you, and continue to teach us
We need this level of quality of homily at our church. This truly feeds the soul.
God bless you Bishop Barron. I began attending Word on Fire classes in London over ten years ago and I loved them. Now I have your RUclips videos as well. Like Bishop Sheen, you get right to the “heart of the matter”. Thank you ❤🙏🏻
How beautiful. Jesus, son of God have mercy on me.! Thank you Bishop Barron.
Glory to Jesus
Thank you for this message. I am visually impaired and I pray for sight all the time. I've just gone through some very significant life changes and have been struggling. This message feels like a bit of a healing...or at least a path to it. Thank you again!

This homily is an answer for many. I am truly amazed at how Holy Spirit guide minds across the world. Thank you Bishop Barron.
You're sermons are a gift from God.
God Bless you and have mercy on you and us all, Bishop Robert Barron
Wow, that means the world 🌎 is blind until Jesus opens their spiritual eyes 👀
"This Son of Mine" by Malcolm Smith is the most eye opening and life changing book to me and many others, after the Bible. It is his latest book published on June 2023 after 70 yrs of preaching. It is a clear insight into who The Father is through a deep view of Lucas 15
God bless you Bishop Barron. Thank you for having responded to God’s call.
Being with Jesus: "Let this be your greatest desire. Be with him as the Apostles were and, earlier in Nazareth, Mary and Joseph. Speak to him intimately, listen to him, and follow him docilely." Pope J.P. 2nd. Sorrento, March 19, 1992.
Thank you so much bishop. I am blessed by your teaching.
God bless you Bishop Barron, thank you for your service to us all.
"That community, which has been called... listen now... out of the world, and into fellowship with Christ!"
When the Bishop says "listen now", those with ears should listen.
Oh my God, I have seen anything like this. Bishop Robert Barron, may the Almighty God bless you and protect you. I am sure the Holy Spirit is working on you, and through you into us. Thanks, thank you very much! 🙏🙏🙏
I am so grateful for your homilies. I learn so much in only a few minutes. Thank you!
Thank you Bishop Barron
Thank you Bishop Barron. I love how you break down scripture. I feel it pull me in. Thank God.
Hello
Thank you, Bishop, for your homily. We need to approach Jesus, especially now in these times. God help us!

Thank you Bishop Barron. Open my Eyes Lord
Thank be to God (and thru Bishop Barron voice) to save our sinful soul ❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a powerful sermon. Wish all priests could explain the Gospel like this.
Wonderful Homily, Bishop! If we just open our eyes, there is SO MUCH to be seen! Many Many Thanks!
Open you eyes to who Bishop Barron follows, he isn't who you think.
Randy MacAllister,
Yes there is SO MUCH to be seen.
God bless you for your gracious Presence☆
Amen, amen! Thank you, Father and God bless you.
What a gift! Thank you, Bishop Barron! It is difficult to follow the narrow path, but it is true trust in Jesus when we do...
Lets follow the example of Bartimaeus and ask the Lord for help in humility.
Son of David have mercy on us
Sometimes Christ used spit and mud, sometimes he said. ... it is all faith and that faith is placed inside us by hearing the Gospel.
The Church's great message is the simplicity of the Gospel. Thanks be to God.
GREAT sermon padre - there are entire denominations that are Pelagians ... sad face right there. Jesus is the antidote to the infection.
Beautful homily Bishop Barron. In order to truly see, give the ego away and let God into your heart. It sounds so simple. Why does it take so many of us long to do? Myself included.
I too am begging Christ to heal me. Not only me but my family, a whole restorative web of connectedness. I have a vision of it, and now if only something like it can come to pass. Your kingdom come.
Sermons that make me cry.
Praise God for this message. Bishop, your homilies never fail to bring the Holy Scriptures to life. Thank you for sharing.
Most interesting. Thank you Bishop Baron. Greetings from Croatia
Oh so beautiful how You love us, Lord.
Such a blessed sermon Bishop Barron!
You make the gospel come alive with the depth and richness we all can strive for if we beg God for the ability to see. Thank you for your Sunday sermons.
Dear Bishop Barron: Thank you so much for your homilies each week. We learn so much and they are so very inspiring and practical and, it helps us to better understand the instruction book for life ( The Holy Bible) is trying to give us. We are truly grateful for your messages.
Good morning Bishop. God bless you and everyone reading this.
This was an amazing homily. Thank you Bishop Barrón.
Bishop Barron; Exelente thank you
Amen❣️
It's an incredible homily. Thanks, Bishop Barron. This video was a great message for me.
This was an outstanding message and a pathway to calmness and happiness. This lecture coincides and adds to the power of Fr.Dilindo Rutolo’s novena for faith. “Jesus I surrender to you. Take care of everything.”
In this gospel Jesus says come ( be near me,) what do you want.? “I want to see” then the most powerful words “your faith has healed you” as in Father Dolino’s novena Jesus said put you faith in me and trust MY will be done.
I thoroughly enjoyed this sermon one of your best and helps tie together many things. God bless you Bishop Barron! Amen, amen
Never realised how beautiful this story was until today and coupled with one of the best sermon in my opinion by Bishop Barron, it is truly a vintage one, worth revisiting more often!!
Wonderful, as usual. Thank you Bishop Barron for your service!
A great sermon!
Thank you bishop Barron. I was amazed knowing for the first time how enrich and powerful this scene of the blind man healed by Jesus🙏 Your words are enlightening and so deep. Thank you for helping us see the spiritual meaning of this scene. God bless you Bishop.
Que le Tout Puissant vous comble toujours de sa sagesse et vous soutienne !
Merci bcp Mgr Barron
God bless you!
Thanks and God bless you Bishop Baron. You always speak with such clarity

God bless.
Our support is our praying community, a very precious gift and blessing to find our true brothers and sisters seeking Jesus with us 🙏
One million subscribers! Woo-hoo! Just in time for Lent 2024
This is very good, very insightful understanding of sin. It is all so true how we cannot expect the help of fellow sinners when we recognise we need help and yes the road to healing is indeed always blocked. This is a good revelation and is in sync with understanding that we should not feel responsibile for the sins of others as a sort of way of never leaving sin ourselves. We need to escape the crowd just so we can be free from sin, in the company of the Lord and in the company of His Church. Then we do not forget about the sinners we have known, but pray for them too, without necessarily endangering ourselves and our souls by going back to them but keeping them in mind and heart and really praying for them.
2:39 "I can't solve it on my own...'I can just kind of...make my life better.' No, you can't!"~Bishop Barron😁 "Jesus is the still point." Kyrie, eléison🙏
