What Is the Root of Your Sin? | Third Week of Advent w/ Fr. Josh Johnson
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 дек 2021
- You enter the confessional and you tell the priests your sins-where you've made mistakes since your last confession. But do you know where those sins came from? What the root cause is?
Today, Fr. Josh Johnson helps us identify the lies that we believe about God-and how to speak truth into them by staying close to Him in prayer.

A remedy for Sloth: Meditate on the last words of Jesus on the Cross, “ It is finished.” For myself and all who struggle with this demon, it lies to you that whatever you have to do can be done tomorrow. “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your heart” (Morning Invitatory Psalm 95).
When Fr Josh said the lie we believe is that God is not enough, it was an eye wide opening event. Just what I needed to hear.
Same for me
Amen
Agree!
" Why is God not enough?"
An eye opener!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Father Josh and 🙏🙏🙏
If someone as wonderful as Fr. Josh can be guilty of some of the Seven Deadly Sins, then I think most of us are in trouble. I finally went back to Confession after 13 years because I kept not making time in the busy schedule to do it.
In fairness, the reason they're called "the seven deadly sins" isn't because they're the worst but because they are the easiest categories of sin to fall into (especially pride), and thus the most common, and can lead to progressively larger sins if we let them. They're the biggest risk, and thus "the most deadly"
Thank you Dear Rev.Father Josh
Amen Father. Sometimes we tend to be so focused on our own sins that we disregard our relationship with God. Thank you for making me realise that! God bless
Thanks Fr. Josh. I don't watch your videos frequently, but when I do they're always profound. This one came at the right time for me (at least, I saw it at the right time, though after you posted it), and helped me recognize that I'm dealing with pride at the root of current patterns of sin. Thank you for your ministry, and may God bless you! (P.S., if anyone reading this could pray for God to bless me with humility (gently, I pray), I'd appreciate it.)
I am back here again, love this insight about getting to the root of our sins. Thank you Fr Josh 😊
This is MUST for all who want to have an honest conversation about their faith Thanks Father Josh and all at Ascension.God Bless
The root of sin is believing a lie 🥺
How profound for me
Thank you, Fr Johnson 🙏🏼
God bless you Fr Josh.
Fr. Josh thank you for this video. This morning I was thinking about this topic and did not know how to bring it up to my teenagers. This video just popped up on my You Tube. I showed it to my teenagers and it was really helpful. Loved the lines about rejection and lie.
Perfect!! God speaks when you need to hear Him.
Thank you so much father Josh. I also realised how surface level my confessions have been. God bless you. Just in time for me to go confessions are open tomorrow
Perfect timing... with everything reopening post-COVID locksown, I am finding even more that I am not able to say no to invites to the point I miss awesome church events/missions I so love. 😢
Don't say No to God's invitation to His events
Love how he explains the need to dig deeper with the big 'Why'! Excellent.
When he says I was closer to the devil than to God. I felt it.
Whenever I listen to Ascension Presents I always feel so convinced that God is really the best ever. When I listen to other preachers I sometimes feel discouraged and confused.
Very well said, Father. You have described my struggle perfectly. As I reflect upon my habitual sins, I realize that I am spiritually lazy and this keeps me from truly growing in a relationship with Our Lord. Help me O Lord to keep Thee first in all of my thoughts, words, and actions.
Brothers and sisters, we need to be praying for these priests. Thank you, father, for your wisdom!
AMEN!!
Great insight Father Josh
Believing the lies of the enemy shows that I’m closer in proximity to the enemy than I am to God. In this place, God is not enough! Thank you Fr. Johnson for helping me discover this lie. 🙏❤️🔥🙏
Beautiful reflection, Father. Thank you.❤
Beautiful - Good for Advent - Blessings! 🙏🙏
This was very helpful, thanks Fr Josh. God bless you
Great video ❤️ thanks father Josh 🙏 God bless
Thank God and thank you for this message and the way you presented it. I don't know how else to explain what happened as I was listening to this... It was like a big bear hug from the Father, the Son, & the Holy Spirit. 🙏❤✝️
Thank you Fr. Josh for your message. It was just what I needed to hear. I need to do a thorough examination of conscience and get to the reasons, as to why, I do the things I do that offend God and others. In my heart, I want to be pleasing to God and be an example of a good Christian. After this examination of conscience I need to go and receive His forgiveness through the Sacrament of Reconciliation. God Bless you.
Super helpful!! I’ve never heard info about confession this way. I’m going to use this in my examinations of conscience. Thank you and God bless.
All priests are a blessing but this one is +awesome!
That's a word, thank you, Father Josh!
Thank you Father.
Thankyou fr !
I needed that!
God Bless you!❤
I've been drifting away slowly in prayer day after day gets worst. Last year during the pandemic I accepted our Lord during confession(I will never forget that.) Ever since I started going in person school I have been busy being a student althete I haven't make time to pray. I'm just too focus on school but not in God. Please pray for me.
Tremendous. GOD bless you Father Johnson. I.N.R.I
Beautiful message, Father. Thank you.
Thank you Fr Josh great topic! ✝🙏📿 📖 ❤
Perfect timing. Thank you Father.
How to look beyond the surface and that we believe God is not enough. That is what helps us to reflect on what is needed. Thanks Father Josh.
This is amazing
Thank you for this message Father, I needed to hear this message today.
I needed this right now.. thank you
Thank you Father, Jesus IS enough ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻he keeps us in his perfect peace 🙌🏻good reminder
God bless you Father Josh!
Just want to say that I love your videos father josh you’ve really made my faith something I do a lot during daily life thank you so much
Thank you once again, Father Josh!
This was so good! I can’t wait to go back to confession and really allow the Lord to heal me
Very well said at the end there God bless!
Wow! There is fear of what people will think during transitioning to Catholicism….
God strengthen me of Your Love…knowing You Are ENOUGH 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
That is a great advice Fr Josh. I will practice this and make better confessions.thank you.
Thank you very much very encouraging.
Thanks 🙏
Wow. This is so profound. Thank you, Fr Josh.
What a blessing! Thank you father
God is haste to save and slow to condemn. St. Alphonsus Ligouri
Thank you for this! 🙏
so timely and so good, mind blown. ill be preparing and going to confession a lot differently from now on! thank you Fr. Josh, God bless!
Pray 🙏 for me please
Good way of looking at things, we did something similar at my previous job when determining the root cause of a failure, it was called the “5 why” or something like that. It makes sense when examining your conscious
Thank you Fr Josh. Can you speak to mortal sin and the scrupulous mind?
Very strong video. Thank you so much. Big hugs
Forgive me father, for I have sinned. I hurt my mother a lot sometimes. I feel she's so much in to material world., She's a Hindu and doesn't get inclined towards Christ. But my problem is even as a Hindu she doesn't increase her devotion.
I dislike my dad.. because his heart is closed.
I know I am flawed too lord and I know I don't have to point at others mistakes. But, I just wish things weren't like this. I just want to be me. By myself. Alone alone alone. Jerry McGuire was a great movie... 😀
See JESUS in them!
Pretend they are JESUS!
Do all for JESUS!
🥺♥️
❤️
🙏🏼
Fr. Josh looks like Fr. Gregor from Half Life with that epic beard.
Addiction
Depending on the addiction it comes from hurt!
I used to drink to soothe myself from hurt! It help at the start but after years I sobered up & started thinking then i started PRAYING at a set time daily surrender novena was part of my prayer time!
I want to pray now rather than drink!
Sometimes i get hurt again & i have to be strong & keep PRAYIN!
I hope that helps!
I will add you into my prayer!
❤
The root of all my sins started when I was a Roman Catholic believer.
Does he know it’s Gaudete Sunday?
Of course
He lite the pink candle! It was just out of view!
What should I do if the root of my sin cannot be fixed?
Don't believe the lie that you can't change, change is the only thing constant
Don't believe the lie that you can't change, change is the only thing constant
With God EVERYTHING is possible.
Humbling yourself to allow Him to heal you is hard. Pride (my big one) says, “God is not enough, I need to do it.”
Honey, I’m 66 and believe me until I let go and let Him work on me, I was a mess. At 35 I found Him, my Savior, at 50 when my husband died, I accepted Him as my Lord.
Now He runs my life. Not easy, but filled with love, joy and peace especially in the midst of difficulties.
I am His daughter, a Princess. Unfortunately, too much like Peter for some folks, so I head to confession more frequently😊 The more I confess, the more I grow.
You are His beloved-never forget that. He sings joyfully because of you…Zephaniah 3:17
Couldn't help but notice. You didn't cite Holy Scripture. Not even one single time. I'm not used to that.
The root cause of my sin doesn't matter because God hates me, always has and I'm nothing but subhuman and worthless to Him.
You'd think that a perfect, all knowing, infallible God could create beings that aren't this blatantly fallible and full of sin??? Is he enjoying watching his creation fail all the time? And wiping them out on a regular basis?
Sounds kind of maniacal\psychopathic...
Sounds a whole lot like free will to me.
So you would prefer not having a choice to love? You can only truly love if you love freely. Coerced or forced love is not love and who would want that, it would be a lie. Your vision of what God should be is actually despotic and psychotic. Love is based on free will. So is sin.
God is perfect!
We are not! We choose the sin out of free will!
But OUR LOVING GOD!! WAITS WITH ARMS OPEN FOR US ! TO SEE THAT SIN GETS US NOWHERE!!
SO WE SHOULD LEARN TO FOLLOW OUR GOD!
IMAGINE IF EVERYONE DID THAT!
IT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!
Please don’t use those fake candles on the bookcases in the background. Someone watching who doesn’t know any better might think that they are real candles. And think that what you’re showing is safe and ok (which it isn’t) if they attempt to replicate the look. Sometimes people can be really dumb.
What Is the Root of Your Sin? Thinking a god/s exists and needs worshipping with rules given to them by other humans.
This nonsense has to stop, please.
