Season of Lent

  • What is the season of Lent all about? What is its purpose?
    Can Scripture tell us anything about the season of lent? If lent is a 40 day journey, can the 40 days in the desert spend by Jesus in scripture tell us anything about the purpose of the season of lent? And, specifically, can we unearth anything from the specific temptations that Jesus underwent?
    To learn more about the season of Lent, the temptations of Jesus, and the temptations of Adam and Eve, along with the connection between the Gospel reading, Responsorial Psalm, and the Old Testament reading for this Sunday's Mass, subscribe today to The Mass Readings Explained:

    We need more priests like Dr Pitre. If we could have homilies like this in our churches how awesome it would be. The faithful who go to Mass would certainly grow in their Catholic Faith. May the Lord grant us priests who know and preach the faith like Dr Pitre does.

      That’s a prideful idea. Listen to the Holy Spirit give you the message and if you’ve been praying you’ll hear. Mass is not a Bible study brother.

    Warm greetings from Australia 🦘 Goodness, you are amazing Dr Pitre. Your "sermons" are a balm for the heart and mind. You have been instrumental in my Catholic education - I have just returned to the Church. I've watched other lectures that you have given. RUclips is a Godsend and you are one of the major leading lights, set apart from the plethora of Catholic shock jocks and junk commentators. THANK YOU!!

      Yes there's so much to learn! And as we continue to learn, it also grows our faith. And then as our faith grows, we learn more and WANT to learn more. The trick is to keep going, no matter what we want or feel. Just like changing diapers... You just HAVE to do it out of love. We rarely WANT to or FEEL like it. It's a sacrifice, a suffering, a caring, the next right thing. (Growing our faith is nothing like diapers... It was just a small analogy.)

    An excellent exposition of the Temptations of Jesus, Dr. Pitrie. I was especially intrigued by what you said about Psalm 91, that it was a psalm of exorcism. No wonder Satan knew it so well! As always, you deepen and enrich familiar passages from the Gospels by linking them to the Old Testament. God bless everyone this Lent and protect us from harm.

    Jesus is always telling us to grow closer to God. Jesus tells us to be like little children and surrender to God. Holy Mother Church tells us more prayer, more fasting and more alms giving to help us avoid sin. Excellent commentary on our Lenten journey with Christ.

    • @wellasang
      @wellasang 4 года назад

      legolasegb Dr. Pitre talked about Satan’s temptation of the Lord to forsake the gruesome path of the Cross, which is a part of His mission. Christians are like that; we are always tempted to forsake our own personal histories, in favour of something that we create for ourselves. God calls us within our own histories uniquely, and our unique responses to this call. Humanity as a whole is also drawn into this collective history toward the God who shows Himself as the true goal of humanity. But collectively, we also try to create our own path in history where we, just like what you have said, employ our own technical expertise to bring about our own purely secular goals.

    Lent is the period in God's policy of evaluation and justification of personal belief to God according promises to God for the Eucharist with the memory of God's promise brought with Jesus Christ of eternal life in the gospel of the today of the computer. The doorstep of the church building and the threshold of eternity, the sense of personal belief to God.

    Concerning HIS temptations, I always believed in Jesus’s true humanity and HIS GREAT LOVE of the ETERNAL FATHER is what prevented HIM from falling into sin. Being a Rabbi Jesus knew the “come backs”, which are quotes from Moses in the Old Testament. We are all victim to temptations but if we love GOD, we will avoid sin. It ain’t always easy. JESUS, Man-GOD, is PERFECTLY human and PERFECTLY GOD. MAY THE MOST PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST COVER US, save us 🙏🩸🙏.
