HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 фев 2022
- Friends, there are a lot of people claiming to be spiritual gurus, teachers, and guides today. But is the person to whom you’ve entrusted your life spiritually blind? Whom are you going to follow, and why? Toward the end of Luke’s Sermon on the Plain, Jesus-the definitive spiritual guide-offers us important lessons that help us discern our spiritual guides.

If you want to be a saint, follow the discipline that leads there, and the example of the saints who went before you. The rosary and persistence in prayer, ministry to the poor and suffering, and/or the vows of the monks and clergy... whatever God calls you to do when you listen with your heart. And find someone experienced to share those tasks with you. We all need help to cultivate virture and root out vice and sin, and we all pass through the dark night. We all need a friend to help us.
Father Barron I am so happy to hear you today.
Mary Therese CAMPBELL PARKER
My friends, it's good that you leave kind and encouraging comments for the Bishop. But I hope you're leaving him money too, to do his work. It takes nothing to sign up and give a few bucks a month to his ministry. Let's think about leaving him with more than nice comments.
Thankful
I would give anything to have you as my Spiritual Director, like Jesus himself.
Yes I know your not Jesus, my life has been turned upside and my light is dim.
Your light is bright, I send a lot of time in adoration, I know God has a plan and he only works for the good. But I am not seeing the good, each day I try my best to hang on that nugget of hope and I do find a blessing always.
I have been trying to hang on since 2009, and I try each and everyday, within this crazy world.
You Bishop Barron could save a lot of living souls, please do a program on Spiritual direction and give us little ones some hope and help us get our lights just a bit brighter. I pray and ask all this in his most precious name, Jesus Christ.🙏🏼❤️☮️.
Amen Father. Love your teachings.
Bishop Barron is a treasure
I listen to your lectures every week, and I'm so impressed by your intellect and understanding. And then every Sunday rolls around, and I'm always blown away by what an amazing preacher you are. Thank you GOD, for such a faithful teacher and preacher in Bishop Barron.
Excellent!!!!!!!
I wish I had heard this about twelve years ago. Thank you. It is appreciated.
Bishop Barron: Please, please be our spiritual guide in these days of world unrest. I am asking for you to please send a video to help us through the awful atrocity in Ukraine. Your words are powerful to all of your viewers. As the Holy Spirit has blessed you with the gift of spreading the Word - and helping us to understand it - please lead us in prayer for an end swiftly to this war. Thank you. We need your words now.
I second your request, Camille.
@@oliverclark5604
Why be an intruder? May God help you.
I third that, he is my spiritual kind
Prayer will absolutely no effect on the awful situation in ukraine absolutely nothing, prayer has no quantifiable effect, otherwise cancer in babies would have stopped. Bishop Barron is an expert at talking about things he cannot possible know, he is a parasite as is the catholic church
@@scoops2382 You have absolutely no idea of what you are talking about, it seems to me that you are the expert at talking about things you cannot possibly know. You seem like the parasite to me not the Catholic Church or Bishop Barron.
Word.
Please, people, pray for Ukraine! We need your prayers!!!
God, have mercy at Ukraine! 🙏❤️🇺🇦
Everyday, I'm praying
Praying for you here in Ireland ,saying an extra rosary each day .may God give you the strength to get through these dark times , 🕊️🙏🕊️
The Ukraine is is in my prayers as we as the conversion of the Whole Region 🙏
Praying
Knowing that I am a Sinner is so easy. Doing something about it is so hard. Thank you for the Chrystal clear Sermon.
And that’s part of the difficulty of social media, that “gurus” can hide their lives and make certain things look perfect or better than they are when there’s really chaos behind them.
Thank you so much Bishop Barron. You are always very clear in what we should see--and I know the Holy Spirit works through you. I am a Catholic convert, and I know how dangerously close I was to spiritual death. I thank God for saving me. God bless you always.
I'm reminded of the words of Pope Francis. When a journalist asked him who he was, he responded saying he was a sinner whom God had looked upon favourably.
Pope Francis didn't miss the boat.
No one knows if theres a god that question is unanswered either way, barron and the pope are as blind as everyone else.
God bless our Pope☆
Tku so much dear Fr. How I wish Putin could listen to you everyday
I wish this man was the priest in my perish.
Thank you Bishop Barron for your reflection. Greetings from Malta in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. The Holy Father will visit us within 6 weeks. What a blessing.
Thank you Bishop Barron.
I have a beam!
Bishop Barron, you might find this interesting. Kallistos Ware, our brother in the Orthodox tradition (see CCC 838), was once asked by a Protestant brother: "Are you saved?" He responded, "I trust that by God's grace, I am being saved" (continuous form of the present tense).
A starving person like you who found bread -- I like it.
God bless😋
"In all of this, we are fundamentally looking away from our guilt dulling the pain of real self-consciousness. In the process, we turn ourselves into God, pretending to be absolute, flawless, and impervious to criticism." For me this sums up my time away from the true Catholic and Apostolic Church and my time spent in a Non denominational church. So happy and Blessed to be home.. Thank you Bishop.
Bishop looks great. Take care Bishop Barren. Gob bless You
Watch what people do, not what they say........Very sage advice.
"A good example is the best sermon"-Benjamin Franklin
We are blessed you are our Spiritual teacher and someone who has been evangelized by God. Thank you
@@oliverclark5604 You don’t make sense. Simplify what you are trying to say.

Lovely sermon. I think that all the saints are examples of spiritual leaders… they were all men and women of action. They just kept going in their service…. no quitters!!
😂❤️✝️
Bracing words for a Sunday morning: thank you.
Pray for Pope Francis all bishops cardinals priests deacons seminarians missionaries nuns and all of church
I have been too fearful to get to mass during the Pandemic. Bishop Barron, i am so thankful to you for being a voice of faith to me while I cannot seek guidance and the light from an in person service. Thank you, and God Bless you. 🙏🏻
Please pray for me... I think I was led astray and decieved by new age spirituality...thank you...
*"... the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against these there are no laws."* - Galatians 5:22-23
Faithfulness to God’s laws is a big one. Luke 6:45,46
"Who has stood in need of salvation and found it." Excellent way to communicate a very nuanced concept.
Awesome Comment☆

May God help you.

Maybe you could correct your own understanding about the use of Comments section of RUclips videos.
God blesse you and preachings
Thank you bishop

Regarding boxing, my father told me to, "watch their feet, not their lips." The feet telegraph what the body will do. Wise words in any context.
Truly wise words☆
Yes. "The body doesn't lie." --Martha Graham. :)
mmm. no. a boxer watches his opponent's hands and his eyes are on their chest.
@@stephenmcdade357
I know not much about the sport yet I would want to believe that the feet telegraph what the body will do. The body incudes hands and chest and ... more. So, ...
Nice interactions everyone ...
@@stephenmcdade357 Metaphor alert...
I went to St. Dominics in San Francisco 5 years ago and confessed after not having been in church for a while and my priest Father Augustine gave me Bishop Barron's Catholicism box set to watch as penance. i have since started reading a lot of great Christian literature, Gustave Flaubert "Temptations of St. Anthony", Thomas Merton "Silence, Joy", "Summa Theologica" and I am taking a class called Dante in Translation that Yale has put on RUclips. Thanks Bishop Barron
Holy Spirit and Bishop Barron, I’m asking for prayers for my family especially my daughter. I just found out she is pregnant with twins.
Jesus told his disciples a parable, “Can a blind person guide a blind person? Will not both fall into a pit? No disciple is superior to the teacher; but when fully trained, every disciple will be like his teacher.”
😇O Jesus, thank you for everything!
Ps 92:1, Lk 6:39
You Bishop Barron are the Spiritual Guide of my life 🙏 For the first time I was acquainted with you in the Catholicism Series I have followed you. Thank you and God Bless You Always 🙏 ❤
“It’s not who you are underneath, it’s what you do that defines you” - Rachel
Once again, right on queue - at a time when the world is in need of a spiritual teacher. Wonderful sermon, Bishop Barron.
God bless you, all, and prayers to the people of Ukraine, and everyone who has been devastated by the ills of war.
Peace x
Bishop Barron, you have brought me back to the faith. I owe you my life. Thank you for your videos and wise words.
I love this sermon
To be sure your guide isn't blind, follow the saints.
Wow and mega-wow!!! I never thought that I would call Bishop Barron “fellow sinner” with su much joy.
Thanks for the homily, it helps a whole lot.
I have commented many times that I thought this was your best sermon yet. Bishop, I believe this is your most direct message to the hearts of sinners. We all need direction and your description of whom to trust is, to use your term, par excellance. Thank you and God bless you.
“But who can discern his errors? Clear thou me from hidden faults. Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me! Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression.”
Psalms 19:12-13
Thank You Lord for giving us Bishop Baron…
I just listened to Fr. Mike’s homily and he said something today that I never heard and maybe I should have., but anyway he said, Words disclose or disguise the heart. It’s so true. And of course the old saying that actions speak louder than words is holds true. Pray for us Bishop Barron and for all who are in need and oppressed. 🙏🏻
@♜ 𝐏𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐝 Transformation Chruchwhy do you have to preach lies you have no belief in The One True Church, for instance you considering you "faith" you most likely read the kjv a heretical book a book of lies. Your pretence is obvious.
Better than "watching what they do..." is "watching what they watch." Look where their eyes are going...
ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS! ♥️
Please know that you are lifted up in prayer daily.
Thank you Bishop Barron, for teaching us about our Lord Jesus Christ, God BLESS YOU 🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️
Wow! thank you Bishop Barron!
Thank you Bishop Barron and God Bless you 🙏🏽❤️
Amen
So well said.
You are amazing, thank you God for your gifts.
God bless you Bishop!
Absolutely excellent!
Sleepy. So when heard "His Gospel has Jesus speaking on a plane..." Well...You can imagine...
Yes, I thought that too. Luke, on a plane. 😃
When I was very little, I thought Pontius Pilate was a Pilot 🧑✈️. I don’t think that anymore.
“And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them inthe name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” Matthew 28:18-19.
“If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32
"..TEACHING THEM TO OBSERVE ALL THAT I HAVE COMMANDED YOU;.."
And Jesus came and said to them [ the eleven disciples], "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; ....." Matthew 28 : 18- 20
"..in Antioch the DISCIPLES were for the first time called CHRISTIANS."
Acts 11 : 26
@@glynissequeira5544 Amen. “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.” John 16:13-15. We, Christians, are children of our Father in Heaven, we have one Lord Jesus Christ, and we are continually being born of the Truth given us by the Holy Spirit.
And My soul shall be healed!🙏
You are my spiritual guide! Thank you again for your clear explanation of the Word simple so I can even understand.
WOW this is so powerful!
Thank you
Amen!
Someone who has been saved and knows it!
Thank You Bishop Barron for being our spiritual leader!
Bishop Barron is best Bishop.
Thank you dear Bishop for being our spiritual teacher...May God's blessing and guidance continue to be with you always.
Amen ,
There is nothing to add to your interpretation Bishop Barron,it is simply the truth
..
God bless you Bishop Barron for your wonderful guidance.
Let go and let GOD❤️
I follow you Bishop Barren, I follow Jesus and his words. You teach me what I dont quit understand in the Bible. 🙏🙂
Beautiful sermon. God bless you.
You brought to light so many profound truths---"knows that he needed a Saviour...aligned to the light of Christ and therefore somebody who's exhibiting clearly in their life these fruits of the Spirit. Love. Joy. Peace." Wow, just think what this world would be like if we consistently put these fruits into action. ❤
Gloria Patri. Saludos desde Colombia.
God doesn’t find fault. And that has taught me not to judge other people. If we walked in their shoes, if we had their same experiences, we don’t know what kind of decisions we would make. Since God stooped down for you, why don’t you stoop down for someone else? You’re never more like God than when you’re helping the hurting, restoring the broken, lifting the fallen. There’s enough judgment in the world; there’s enough criticism and faultfinding. Let’s be lifters. Let’s be encouragers. Let’s help someone else experience the God who stoops. New channel here, we appreciate any kind of support and encouragement. Stay Faithful, God loves you today and always. Amen
Thank you Bishop, and God bless you.
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ 🙏 Mother Mary Pray For Us 🙏Abba Father Bless us and we Adore You 🙏Holy Spirit Guide us and direct our paths 🙏
Bless you and thank you for what you do.
Thanks, Bishop Barron.
Amen.
Father, I love your preachings. Greetings from Brazil!
Thank you Jesus
Praise The Lord! Lord I am not worthy that Thou should enter under my roof but only say the word
Amen Bishop Barron. We must beware of false prophets, who come as wolves in sheep's clothing and can deceive even the Elect. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ, may the wolves be revealed and any and all deception cease! Amen.
Just read the message of HENRY WILLIAM yesterday,Bp im still learning my phone my googles, my Utube & its ,God bless...
Thank you Bishop for this insightful message. May God bless you 🙏
Bishop Barron: I echo Camille's request. You have been such a wise and sober guide through all the travails of the last years. Please create a video that expresses the truth that God is in control of the world stage. We know that in our hearts, but your voice would be a great source of peace at this time...and God bless you and your ministry. Pray, pray, pray!
There is a book by Father Thomas Dubay titled " Seeking spiritual direction " , it is a good start.
May I ad that spiritual direction is not a marriage not a sacrament so keep in mind that a good priest a sinner himself can give a good spiritual advice , this confession could be this priest next confession another , right . You entrust your life to True Christ not a priest or religious .
So count your blessings and go " baby steps " but take responsibility its your life do not shift it to a spiritual director. Another way to grow in faith is attending a religious retreat for a weekend with a good lecture and an opportunity to ask specific question . " live and let other live " like Pope Francis once said.
I can't stop watching this video, it is so good and came at a perfect time when it needed to be shared with a friend. She was being lead astray and I shared it with her and she is no longer with the wrong group. Thank you so much and bless you with a long life and please make DVD's of your sermons. Some day we will wish we had them to review over and over again.
I hope we have more bishops like you around the world to help the weak understand and the strong to march on with courage and conviction to battle evil where ever it is found. The Memorarae prayer is very useful for applying our intensions for Ukraine since it is She who said Russia will be converted and Her heart will Triumph.
I believe Her!
Blessings!
Hello. Bishop. good day. Say the things you must say and don't worry about peoples critique. Because as mother Theresa said: It is not about you and them, but it is about you and GOD.
Thank you Bishop Barron for this very wise Sunday Sermon!!! I will from now on not just listen but watch very carefully what is done! Just today I encountered a challenging situation to say the least! I had to admit I had my doubts about the person I saw and prayed to the Lord about what I saw. This Sunday Sermon, Bishop Barron appears to be a confirmation for me!!! May the Lord keep blessing you and inspiring you Bishop Barron, I pray!!!
Thank you Bishop!
