Is Death the End? - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

[@iloveyoubyee]

Our 6-year-old died this last summer from cancer. This homily brings me so much comfort. Thank you Bishop Barron 🙏

[@anneturner2759]

My heart, my heart, I am profoundly sorry.

[@emilybazeddi1914]

I am sorry for your pain. Oh dear Lord. I am glad you have been comforted by this.

[@gilbertorodriguezjr7310]

I’m sorry for your loss. My condolences. Words cannot describe the pain of death. We struggle to understand the course of life. When I lost my mom I felt completely detached from reality. Time doesn’t feel real. I know one day I will see her again and that gives me the courage to confront life with confidence. All the things I do I do them with love. ❤ All we can do until we see our loved ones again. 🙏

My dad passed away on Nov 07, 2024. This was the sermon the father at the mass read. I love you dad. May your soul be resting in the presence of Jesus, "I am the resurrection, and the life..."

My wife and I both lost our fathers this past year. Our dear friends lost their 10-year-old tragically as well. The belief that Jesus calls them forth from the grave gives me great hope.

[@alimcmaster9041]

My son, Solomon, died suddenly last July. I miss him very much. But I felt from the beginning that he did not cease to be. I am still connected to his true being through my heart, thanks be to God. I stumbled into the Catholic Church five years ago (confirmed four years ago) after an agnostic upbringing, and much fruitful (and much unfruitful!) searching for what I can now name as God. I cannot help but feel that God was preparing me well in advance for the incredibly painful event of my son's death. Being able to pray to Mary in particular was of incalculable comfort. Thank you Bishop Barron for this beautiful homily and for your beautiful explaining of the Catholic faith. I appreciate your not "dumbing down the faith". But I most of all thank God for his mercy and infinite love. May my son be always with him. Praise Jesus.🙏🧡🌿

[@anneturner2759]

Ali, my deepest sympathy. I cannot imagine how you have suffered and are suffering.

[@alimcmaster9041]

​@@liannesadler5771 hi lianne, if you want to be in contact with God, (or however you name the force of good in the world as you experience it) I would say just mentally make that request to that being. No money is required. It is indeed a sad and terrible thing that the vulnerable are sometimes - often - taken advantage of by those out for their own gain. But don't let that stand in the way of reaching out to that which is truly good. I pray you will find your right path. Peace.

He was not a religious man, but he did have the sacrament of confession, eucharist and anointing of the sick on his last day. My great hope and prayer in life is to be united again with everyone I've lost, together in heaven.

This is the great paradox about death. Jesus conquered death through his own death. He vanquished death at the foot of his cross n in the process, offered us eternal life. His self sacrificial, self emptying death was so infinitely efficacious that his Father raised us all up with his son. Thank u Bishop Barron. Beautiful homily. We ur the fruits of yr wisdom.

Mom had been going downhill and when the end came, it broke my father's heart. Thwy had been married close to 60 years. I was with him as we made arrangements for the funeral. None of the quotes suggested spoke to him, so we asked if we could have our own words. Looking at many other sayings, Dad decided on one we see today. Their headstone reads the traditional names & dates, ending with "TO BE CONTINUED" That says it all.

[@paulrubio3918]

There's something powerful when Bishop Barron says the Word of God isn't just descriptive, but creative. And in the context of this story, and the principles of our faith, His Word re-creates us, ultimately drawing us out of death to new life, which we can experience even now. The sense of hope is powerful that, when it seems like all is lost in the midst of death, God raises to new life.

I praised God so much during this sermon Bishop. Jesus' tears are God's tears. He weeps at our crushing heart over death and loss .. what a good God who came, died and rose again to raise each of us again. He brought death to death . What a good God. God bless you Bishop Barron into deeper and deeper faithfulness. From a laity who has drunk deeply of your sermons and taken it to church and preached to the hungry congregation as there is no priest in this place of brokenness waiting for redemption and the coming of His Kingdom in glory. - From the Highlands of Papua New Guinea.

[@GlaDOS.CAROLCORE]

@@liannesadler5771 We do this. We could choose not to, but we do. Not all of us the time, but we do at times all. What use is money to those who believe an eternity of abundance is the truth? If the poor are to be given their help, it must come from somewhere. If their is scarcity, we grow out of ourselves by sharing what we have for others out of it. If God did not care, He would not have joined us, and there would be nothing but despair ultimately, for death and evil then do win justice dies and we all die and there is nothing but the void of nothingness to stare at in eternity. As we see for those who do not believe in such hope as in the Cross of Christ, God dying out of infinite love for us and joining us in our pain; we otherwise see a short, gluttony and distraction, clinging to shadows, pretending beauty and goodness are not dying over and again here in the world until death takes them and us. If God does not reign over all, Death and Nihilism do. We can rail against them all we want, but we will always lose. Do you have another answer for this? If you wish to know where God is, go to the suffering and the poor and care for them out of what you have. Expecting nothing in return, but for sheer love of them as another in need. Then there, He shall be and you shall see and find Him, if you truly seek Him.

[@GlaDOS.CAROLCORE]

@@liannesadler5771 That is not to say, there is not a grave issue of the trusting and innocent being abused by those who ought to be shepherding them. This is clearly seen in the Old Testament among the kings and high priests and in false prophets. In the New Testament as well, and in the Apostolic Age is referenced clearly as charlatans, the greedy, and the lazy in Christian leadership are all warned against in the Didache. Yes this occured and occurs in even the Church. Was Christ Himself not sold for 30 pieces of silver by one of His own Apostles, to the people He was coming as the King, Prophet, and Messiah, the fulfillment and perfection of the Law and Prophets of, and turned over to the Cross by its leaders out of envy, fear, and ignorance. Was He also not though found of no fault, put to a spectacle, torment, death, and attempted shame by a ruler who knew He had done no crime, to appeal the fury of a crowd? If one is truly a Christian, they know and believe thus. God knows full well by both knowledge and experience the tortures of this world. And again, we did it. We must call such as these to justice, most of all, when the wolf preying upon the sheep is us.

What an amazingly powerful message. I love how the Church puts these wonderful scriptures in front of us during Lent, Easter and throughout the year. And I thank you Bishop Barron for giving a true homily and helping us to take them into our lives and marinate on what is there and apply them here and now.... As a former Protestant, I can say they are on to something with their emphasis on the Bible. Now take that love for the Scriptures and look at them through the lens of the Catholic Church and its teachings, and you get the complete, rich picture of how much God loves mankind and how He delights in us and went the whole way to win us back for himself... Thanks be to God! Jesus, I trust in You... (Help me in my unbelief)

For God gave HIS only Begotten Son to die for us. . .and He raised, and continues to raise us! 🙂

[@valeriesimms2874]

Thank you Bishop Barron for this powerful Sunday Sermon on death!!! The death of Lazarus, the Valley of the Dried Bones, our own fears about death...and how our Loving God can and WILL RISE US UP FROM THE GRAVE!!! I could say that I have had a close encounter with physical death and another that was both physical and spiritual!!! The first I was diagnosed with an adenoid cystic carcinoma at the age of 47. My son was about 12 then. I remember praying one day to the Lord to please keep me alive, so that my son still would have his mother to love and care for him. I thank the Lord that 18 years later I am still here!!! The other encounter, was after having had cancer and we had moved location. I recall that particular day I was feeling tired and lacking hope I felt depressed about my life. For some reason, I decided to get out of the house and breathe fresh air out doors. All of a sudden the wind picked up and was blowing fallen leaves and tumble weeds across the road in front of the house. The wind took a different direction, and came up the driveway where I was standing! The breeze swept my hair gently to the back of me, as I breathed in the wind, I felt the wind refreshing me all over! For a minute I thought I might have been imagining all this! So I looked behind me and saw the trees swaying, side by side in the neighbours gardens. A bush that was in our garden was swaying also because of the wind! Then the wind left, leaving me pleasantly stunned. I remember saying to myself the Holy Spirit is like the wind, not knowing where it will come from or where it will go... Both my husband and son came out to see how I was. Both the depression and tiredness had left!!! I felt as if the Spirit of the Lord had lifted up my dry bones from the arid valley I was living in, and restored my flesh and sinews!!! How GREAT IS OUR GOD???!!! I thank You LORD!!! May the Lord keep blessing and inspiring you Bishop Barron with your Sermons and spiritual mission!!!

Thank you Bishop! Very nice speech! I think, that the weeping of Jesus is beautiful and shocking. Seems as if He would like to say many things, but knew, we are not yet ready for more, but He sees our faith in every desperet times of ours, and it touches His heart. That's real faith: believing without understanding everything. And that's exactly what He asks from us. He knows, that our mind is limited, and our beliefs are false many times, and this time He crushes one of them, with giving life to a dead. It doesn't give answer to all our questions, but streghtens our faith in life and resurrection. We still don't know why are things the way they are. Where and how humanity exactly turned to death instead of life? An apple? We don 't know, only that we have his own flesh and blood instead of that apple. We have life over death, because He conquered death. We only know, we are saved. We must focus on God in every bad circumstances. He is our salvation, our happiness, and everlasting life. This is all we need to know right now.

' God is more powerful than death. Death is like sleep : from it we will awaken. HE will open our graves and have us rise from them. God is with us especially in our suffering and especially in our anguish in the presence of death. God enters into this with us. Jesus says : I am the resurrection and the life. ' Magnificient ! So reassuring to know Jesus is living within me. God bless and keep ypu , Bishop Barron.

Bishop Barron, it's a pleasure to see you and listen again. I follow you each Sunday from 2021. Your words help me a lot to understand my faith and increase my love for Christ. God bless you! Katherine Vargas from Lima, Peru 😊

Death does not swallow my life nor my Brother's nor my Mothers.

Bishop Barron, thank you for such an excellent, inspiring and thought provoking Homily! “In the world you have tribulations; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (John 16:33), and Death! “I AM” Existence? In God: “for in Him we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:27). Brother and Sisters, in Christ there is no end, only a new beginning: eternal life 🙏

Almost All Relgions including Communist people Believe Death is Not the End of Life.

In my experience, death isn't the final frontier. The way you lived your life and touched future generations lives beyond yourself. The way my maternal grandmother carried herself, so gracefully, and how my paternal grandfather worked so very hard, day in and day out to provide for his family of 5, is instilled in me. Their integrity, gracefulness, and self respect carries in me, and I pass those characteristics onto my children. Death in the mortal world is the beginning of something greater in the future, if carried on and respected by their kin. ❤

[@brandon6896]

That might sound thoughtful or touching, but has no real weight when considering the person dead.

[@Leo-mr1qz]

@@brandon6896The only way for one to live forever is through their kin. The way they made their family feel, is the legacy of their truth. No human being is immortal.

[@brandon6896]

@@Leo-mr1qz Not according to Christianity or philosophy, the soul is immortal.

[@Leo-mr1qz]

@@brandon6896 The soul is different than flesh and blood. If you believe the soul is immortal, than why is it so hard to comprehend the essence of one's life carrying on through generations?

[@brandon6896]

@@Leo-mr1qz because that's implying that one person's soul belongs to the genetics and is not transcendental and unique in itself. My parents might have helped create my body, but they did not create me. I can gather that you might be a new age practitioner based on your username. Repent and believe in the Gospel. Ending on that one!
