What a beautiful explanation on the Baptism of Jesus. I wish more people would open their mobiles and listen to your today's homily. Also your brief idea about sin is worth listening to. Today sin is a forgotten word. God bless you Rev. Fr. Burke for your meaningful thoughts.

Thank you Father Burke, love you very much! I leave my tree up until it's a fire hazard🤣😍 I also love what John the Baptist says, 'He must increase, I must decrease.' I feel that In my life, He is increasing in me and I (by following Him and striving to do His will) am decreasing!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@KerryODonnell-h7l]

The supernatural inpouring of the Holy Spirit at our Baptism allows us to be one with God. Eucharist is the same. As St. John says; “He must increase. I must decrease.”May we allow the divine light of Christ shine out to the world. Jesus, I trust in you. Thank you for companioning us on this faith journey Fr. Burke. Praying for you and your ministries. Buen Camino and Ultreya!🙏❤️🔥🕊️🌿📿👣

Amén gloria a ti señor Jesús

[@iliesculiliana5846]

thank you greatly for your explanations ref to mortal -- venial sins.BE BLESSED

[@bethany1885]

Can you shed light on the portrait behind you? Is it reflective of John the Baptist the best man who preeceeded the coming of Christ? Have a blessed day!

[@beckyholbrook7253]

So I’m confused. Why should I go to confession if no mortal sin. I do go to daily mass and Sunday.

[@fr.burkemasters2946]

@@beckyholbrook7253 In 1943, Pope Pius XII wrote: “As you well know, venerable brethren, it is true that venial sins may be expiated in many ways that are to be highly commended. But to ensure more rapid progress day by day in the path of virtue, we will that the pious practice of frequent confession, which was introduced into the Church by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, should be earnestly advocated. By it genuine self-knowledge is increased, Christian humility grows, bad habits are corrected, spiritual neglect and tepidity are resisted, the conscience is purified, the will strengthened, a salutary self-control is attained, and grace is increased in virtue of the sacrament itself” (Mystici Corporis 88).
