Surrender to the Holy One - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Friends, the first reading from Deuteronomy today is of signal importance. Moses, speaking to the people before they enter the Promised Land, says, “A prophet like me will the LORD, your God, raise up for you from among your own kin; to him you shall listen.” These words haunted the mind of Israel. Moses was the supreme authority; there was no figure in the Old Testament more important. Who could be greater than Moses? We find the answer in the Gospel: Jesus of Nazareth, the Holy One of God, who speaks on his own authority.
Mass Readings:
Reading 1 - Dt 18:15-20
Psalm - Ps 95:1-2, 6-7, 7-9

Greatest man in history, had no servants, yet they called him Master. Had no degree, yet they called him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today🙏🏻. His name is Jesus.

[@slidefirst694]

Growing up Jewish, my teachers said to disregard the New Testament as only the Old Testament was relevant, yet they selectively overlooked passages like Deuteronomy 18 that would have been enlightening but didn't agree with their beliefs. I am grateful to Bishop Barron for teaching so eloquently and thoroughly.

[@venvilhenrydsilva8354]

Growing up in a Catholic family/environment, Old testament teachings were very much insignificant. I had to go through, atheism & then a revelation made me read The Bible from the first page. I’ve realised that without Old testament, the New testament cannot touch the heart.

[@lapassion24]

Jacob prasch !! Check out him .

[@bigsarge05]

Bishop Barron has a beautiful way of preaching and evangelizing. I credit him for being the lighthouse allowing me to return to the faith. It’s very easy to fall in love with Jesus, reading the New Testament and puts the Old Testament in such a different light. Lord Jesus guide us and protect us! His mercy and love saves us.

[@alessandracasini2588]

As a catholic the importance of the old testament is foundamental as knowing the New Testament becouse it prepares you to The Event and you learn the strength and perseverence in praying for Jesus return it makes you belive even more

[@enn4983]

​@@venvilhenrydsilva8354The Catholic church has always given importance to the old and new testament. This one true church never changes.

Bishop Barron really brings home the meaning of "Father." If every man could listen to his words speaking the truth of Jesus Christ, the world would be an infinitely better place. The good Bishop has inspired me to seek Baptism and Confirmation. Peace be with you all.

Just 2 months ago, when I was given a diagnosis of kidney cancer, another daily church goer gave me the Surrender Novena. It captured everything I believe about Faith. Bishop Barron illuminates it here as well with his usual eloquence.

[@patriciagriffin2216]

Thank you, Bishop Barron. I usually read the scriptures the night before Mass and listen to your sermon after Mass. Tonight, I listened to your sermon before Mass and how inspirational it is for me! When, I hear the readings proclaimed at Mass tomorrow, I will be more able to listen with my heart and with Jesus at the center. Peace be with you, too!

[@jennycornwell2324]

Amazing sermon that really speaks volumes about the Old Testament and how it links to the New Testament. Bishop Barron you made this so easy to understand thank you so much 🙏🏼

[@sharonkatzman7724]

Today our Deacon said the the Greek for authority is power...you say substance. The substance is beautiful because Jesus - the Word made flesh - is always pointing to God...

[@chrissyn4491]

Absolutely wow !!! I've now unsubscribed to all catholic channels except this channel. Unlike other channels where I feel they teach their own understanding and make things so confusing, Bishop Barron adheres strictly to the Word of God, which makes his teaching life-giving

Great……and some of the devil’s greatest work is not only in churches, but in THE church, at its heart, but Jesus will always prevail, and we need to pray more as members of His Mystical Body! + I love this talk, thank you!

[@AndrewLoui]

Satan’s grand plan is to block people from seeking God. He sets all kinds of traps to block people approaching God, as you’re not good enough, you make mistakes, you agree with abortion, you have homosexual behavior, etc. Sounds reasonable and serves his purpose. Most Christians cannot see through Satan’s plan and side with him. I feel sorry for these unwise souls who cannot pass serpent’s test.

I happened to go to a Mass where then-Father Barron celebrated and preached in 2003. This was before Word on Fire really took off, so I just thought it was going to be a regular old Mass (I now understand that every Mass is outrageously miraculous, but yeah). Anyway-as you might imagine, it was electrifying.
