After 6 days, I'm seeing final rest. The Mt I believe is Mt Hermon. 2 things here, a temple was up there representing Caesar, which one I'm not sure, but proly the most famous king on earth in history, to this time. In other words, I'm(Jesus)going to be THE top king. Also this is represented spiritually as a gate, portal, pathway, to the spirit realm. Mt Hermon was famous so to speak, for this. As the Bible mentions several of these, are all over earth. I see Jesus here as the link or bridge or the apex point of and between the law, Moses being the top tier, and the prophets, Elijah being the top tier. However I do have an issue. Once death, then judgement or as in, once u die, u are spiritually with the Lord.( Or in Hades, which is really just another name for the spirit realm but separate from God). Jesus is legal, he has a body, Elijah is legal, he has a body. Am I missing something -moses has no body? Now I could take this as a few things... God fulfilling moses' wish- he entered and stepped on the promised land, God honored Moses and did him a personal favor so to speak, as Jesus did for Mary at the marriage party. And maybe just maybe-did Moses have his body? It's possible. Remember God hid it. Because Moses did a preshadow of Jesus, he physically couldn't die because he had been in the presense of God so much, his cells were basically infinite energized as it was written, Moses was 129 years old, but eyes and hearing perfect, body still strong...so God gave him a choice and Moses took it, Moses gave up his body, to die. But I am only speculating: God cannot break his laws, spiritual or physical ones for humans, it's why we have bodies. In some ways I would think Enoch and Elijah would make more sense. Both had bodies, one was Jewish and of the law, one was Gentile-completely before the law even existed, and would have represented faith and relationship and love, even before written language or writing. Plus resurrecting Moses into his body would be breaking the law, he would then have to die twice. Maybe I'm thinking too much, I tend to do this, and my whole life I have since I was 12, have sometimes seen things in the Bible, no one else I'm ever aware of, has. I'm seeing the legalities of the spirit realm , physical realm, and limits of both, that God has clearly expressed in scriptures. As in, I have come to restore man's authority; giving us the bridge to both, as Satan used in Job, that we should be able to travel the physical universe if we wanted to, bodily or spiritually. Yet death to the physical body, can only come once. So yes , they point to the fulfillment of the law and the prophets, Jesus being in the middle, God's booming voice in a surrounding cloud, as he did for both Moses and Elijah while they were here on Earth. And then instantly all God, leaving only Jesus. And certainly we must say Elijah pretty much saw and operated in the spirit realm on a daily basis, while he was here on Earth! So then I can see why Moses and Elijah, yet was Moses there, bodily or not? Because I'm seeming to think, either way, God is breaking his own laws, for Moses. To have a body is to die twice. Being here as a spirit without a body is illegal -this is what demons, evil angels, and Satan does. Or is this something I'll never know, until God explains it to me, at a later date?😂

I hope John Michael Talbot comes to Reno, Nevada

Thank You for All Your Beautiful Inspirational Songs they All Touch My Heart and When I Hear Your Songs God is In My Heart Speaking to Me God Bless Your Song and Ministry Rosemary

Bless this day oh Lord and thank you Lord for keeping us safe through the night Amen

Beautiful parable...we live through our Children n grandchildren and what we give always remains but what we keep is lost forever!

The choir at St. Anthony’s on the Lake in SE is performing this on Palm Sunday this year. This will be the second year we have performed this cantata. I really enjoy singing this work. Your parish has performed this beautifully. Our respective choirs are close in size, we may have a few more men. You win with having an orchestra, this pushes the whole performance over the top.

Truly the SPIRIT OF GOD shines thru this man

I am P😂astor Samuel Mudasaya from Rwanda. God bless you so much. Should come in Rwanda Kigali for starting God's ministry with us.

Your music has blessed our music at Holy Mass our " choir " has relied on your podcast. Glory to God. Thank you .😊❤

Beautiful homily brother priest❗️

Paganism has always been strange.

Love this brother. And I love his ministry, and his amazing music. His voice is uniquely golden and angelic. He has an amazing spirit and attitude, the humor injected, despite the intense trials of his life's testimonial. Having been Invited by a dear friend (who has since passed away, leaving me this beautiful experiential legacy), I attended one of his concerts in Savannah - during the early 2000s (c. 2003). The concert featured John Michael Talbot, Terry (his brother), and Michael Card (another great musician). Totally enjoyed it immensely. That experience, nearly two decades ago, strongly resonates with me to this day. Powerful. And I am "NOT EVEN CATHOLIC" 😉🤫. Hahaha. Love all the comments. God bless us all. 😄😊 😌❤❤❤

These are such gems!! Thank you SO MUCH for keeping Fr. Tim's excellent homilies catalogued here!

Gareau is mentally disordered. He loves to spend his time with young children, teaching them secret religious things in private.

You’re a blessing to us all, Fr John Michael Talbot thru your music. Good bless you more.

Thank you Father for speaking about this. I have been the target of a bully in my Church more than once. May God Bless you for your kindness and beautiful heart.

Thanks Father, I was searching for the subject- descended into hell and glad to hear this and I forwarded to others. God bless all your efforts.

Pretty funny for a dude wearing a dress.

Bearded priest looking like a friar monk. Yet when he sings and plays the guitar people are spellbound.

Remember Jmt music back in the 1980s

Shame on you Catholics and works based salvationists

What this priest is saying contradicts the Bible.

His music is great but something seems off about him, like he's trying really hard to be spiritual.

It should be obvious to anyone that God is not in any religion where child pedophilia is rampant. Why would any sane person identify as catholic? It's hard to think of any organization other than the US Government that's as corrupt as the catholic church.

Goofy introductions, but wonderful songs and message substance

Praise the Lord💯✝️with Tribute and Glory💯✝️🙌🙏🏼🙏🏼

Holy is His Name. This song always causes me to tear-up. The music of the late1970's on through the 1980's were the best years for contemporary Christian music.

It could be taken as “Atheists can be used as tools of god to help out theists,” there for God shouldn’t really have problem with atheists.

Excellent sermon, thank you.

good try !!but not good enough.

So thankful. GOD bless those who do HIS will. Praise Jesus our Lord. "our transfiguration "..we must first unbound the living Christ within...resurrect Him within this tomb and roll away the stone let the light out.

Praise and glory to God! What a beautiful and blessed moment to hear him in this 2022 Lenten Season.

Thank you! A true blessing to me as I listen to this in the middle of the night in this Lenten season of 2022.

Hey, who wants to turn to Jesus and live for him and obey everything he says? This life is temporary once you die you spend eternity in one of two places so choose heaven or hell. Jesus loved you to die for you. He says you all are valuable if you turn from your sins he will bless you like never before and he wants to call you son and daughter but whenever you sin you choose hell and choose to hate God. Now you may say I'm a good person which is actually not true (Mark 10:18). But did you know that not even forgiving others is enough to send you to hell. Jesus is very serious about sin in fact Jesus says most people go to hell and few enter heaven (Mathew 7:13-14). No sin is worth going to hell for when someone goes to hell you can never escape your there forever and you will feel the pain forever . It's not worth it You can live in heaven forever where Jesus serves you food and you can be in God's presence forever where you're never sad or depressed and have a mansion as well. There is Good news If you come to Jesus humbly and confess your sins and beg him for mercy and forgiveness he will forgive you. But you can't continue to willfully sin (Hebrews 10:26) Because Jesus also says if you love me keep my commandments (John 14:15) you immediately need to repent from all your sins (Luke 13:3) and follow up with Jesus. Remember Follow Jesus only no religion no man Jesus rose from the dead. We have 500 eyewitnesses of it. Jesus is coming back soon with no mercy, seek the lord now while he may be found. When he rose from the dead he proved everything he said was true Muhamad or Buddha didn't rise from the dead. If you want more help watch the KZbin channel Cleveland street preachers he has been verified by the holy spirit. Also ask the holy spirit to teach you and to guide you in case you haven't. Do any of you need prayer?

What a wonderful homily on the incredibly inspiring Ven Matt Talbot. Thank you so much. Ave Maria!

Thank you for this homily. You have described my life. I have been practicing being kind and loving myself for only just over a week. It has been miraculous. Just as self-loathing colored every area of life, so self-love, acceptance, has colored my life in a totally different way! I pray others will “get” this before they’re in their 70’s!! Bless you Father!!

A priest which tells a story which is not from bible! Wow, I am impressed! 😲😀

I sent you a mask, social distancing, and a vaccine, why didn't you use them?

This is relevant as of now

Thank you Lord for the gift of your real presence in the Eucharist.

Excellent homily, thank you Father.

What a gift this man was! Thank you, SJC for keeping him with us in these videos and sharing his 2015 letter. We are all better for having met him!

The man was (is) a Saint! What a joy is has been to know and love this holy servant of God.
