Be Not Afraid - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 чер 2023
- Friends, the readings for today are really magnificent, and they are all about something central to the spiritual life-namely, fear. Years ago, I was on a retreat, and the retreat director said that there are two basic questions always to ask. First; Deep down, what do you want? Second: Ultimately, what are you afraid of? In a way, answering those two questions will tell you everything you need to know about yourself, spiritually speaking.

I am hated & hounded on all sides on the road, in my home in the church in the supermarket even the Chat Box. Through all of this by the Mercy& Grace of God I have this peace deep within me that no one can touch.All Glory & Praise to you, Lord Jesus.
I'm happy you talked about St Charles Lwanga. For I am from Uganda. And those great men still shake me deeply out of spiritual mediocrity. Thanks Bishop
I watched some of the Martyrs Day celebrations online earlier this month. The joy and the vibrancy of the Ugandan church is inspiring. Greetings from Singapore.

I struggle with some bad anxiety that I internalize, people wouldn’t know it. Bishop Barron’s words always calm me and bring me peace. Thank you for what you do, sir.
Glad that Rev.Bishop doesn't boil everything down to the Devi or the Evil Spirit !
Because that, on the contrary, creates more anxiety, fear and insecurity. Bishop increases genuine faith!
God bless him!
Me too mate. It’s what brought me to Jesus. So I’m a way, it’s been a positive thing as well. Pray every morning, keep God close and trust he’s got your day 🙏🏻👍🏻

Thank You, Bishop Barron, you raise the Catholic church to new levels. May God protect you and Mary intercede.
Thku Bishop for d enlightenment. God bless u more wid a inspiring sermons.
*"Do you maintain a contact with the Lord at the level of your soul? Finally, that's all that matters."*
- BISHOP ROBERT BARRON
Can you not say this in plain English?
All that matters is this - Is your soul joined to the Lord?
(or united to the Lord, or in union with the Lord)
It's a quote @@glynissequeira5544
13:16 -13:25 is the segment in the video.
Mary likes to repeat what Bishop Robert says because she likes to get likes on the comment board and because it helps promote the Bishop’s main point so it’s a win for both.
Interesting comments. As Russian Orthodox it is always pleasant to find friendly Catholics. I'm now a Russian citizen but unfortunately was born in London.

Thank you Bishop Barron . May GOD bless and protect you always. ➕️♥️

I truly wish all Christians were invaded by the fear of the Lord… then the world would be a so much better place! Thank God for this preaching.
Thank you Father, (Bishop) what a great way to begin my day.
Thank you so much.
Bishop Barron...peace be with you , please remember in prayer the Christians and Catholics of Manipur( India) healthy population.. Facing persecution till now 😢😢...This reading of today will surely strengthen their faith 😇🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏please pray ...love from Kolkata (India)😢😢
Bishop Barron is a wonderful preacher who brings light and reason in the present sin cursed world.
Pl pray for peace in Manipur ,India.And pray for the rejection of uniform civil code being slowly thirst upon secular India.Thanks.Amen.
Heartbreaking scenes coming out of Manipur. Those Christians need peace now.
Peace, Bishop Barron. Deep down, I am afraid of abandonment. I only wanted to be a wife and a mom when I was young. I went to school and got a master's degree to humor my Dad, so that I wouldn't be left without being able to get a good paying job. Now I'm poor again, a working disabled woman, and I get to go to school again. I still fear abandonment. People will do that-- abandon you, but God will never abandon you. That's what I have learned so far in my life. I hope that I will succeed in school-- getting my paramedic certification and renewed CDL; finding a job while I work on my Doctorate. Then hopefully teaching Psychology and Education in a college. I pray for myself and my family members -- that we all have healthy fear of hurting God. Thank you.
I hope you get on track again !!! I'm in same situation not disabled but starting over in life at 46
@@changedlife1904 Good luck and God speed. Prayers. 🙏
You are absolutely correct. Many people Will disappoint and abandon you but God never will. Amen! Thanks be to God. Congrats on getting your degrees. Nobody can take those away from you. With God on your side, no one can stop you now! Keep trusting and obeying God and you will be content. ❤🎉
The Lord has blessed you with a new opportunity :-)
I'll pray for you!
I seek to become a Catholic Sister specifically helping United States of America Veterans, Law Enforcement and First Responders in hospitals fully dedicated and devoted to Jesus and I’m afraid to be rejected. Pray for me. Thank you ✝️🥀🕊️
Prayers out, I’m so glad for You!
Prayers for you.Follow wherever you are called
always pray, but His will be done. fear not of rejection. if it is your calling, He will make it so. 🙏💗
May God’s will be done in your life, and may you always be open to God’s will in your life! 🙏💜
That's beautiful, we need more devoted sisters.
I’m afraid of being separated from God , that’s my biggest fear of all
God bless❤
Yes that's what I am afraid of too!
@@margaretboey8582 Please read scripture, listen to sermons, attend Mass, 🙏and stay close to the Lord. He will hold you in the palm of his hand, and raise you up on eagles' wings.
Deb .....It is written that nothing and absolutely nothing in the whole created order can separate us from God ( Romans 8 ; 37-39 )
There is no place in heaven and earth where we can hide from His Presence ( Psalm 139 ;7-12 )
When you pray God is actually closer to you than your very breath . Do not fear or be afraid is written 364 times in Scripture in KJV ,
God will never abandon His own creation and sent His son in proving His love unto death even death on a cross
@@mariemonaco6635 thank you , I attend Mass regularly for decades now , and Bible Study each week year round , volunteer for St Vincent’s dePauls and I still have fears of losing grace in only human and God created me ,He knows me better than myself, He knows my weaknesses and that’s why I cling to His side and only hope nothing ever separates me from The Trinity. Oh yea I’ve attended many non denominal churches and Jesus was there , Jesus is in every church.
I am not a Catholic, however I found this to be a powerful sermon which we all can apply in our modern day! Keep up the great sermons Bishop!
Thank you Bishop Barron. This is just what I needed to hear. ❤
Bishop Barron is a beautiful man and an excellent evangelist. He has a good heart.
And knowledge of sin does not change how I feel. We are all walking together on the path of conversion with Jesus. We all have things we need to change.
🤣 😘
St Lorenzo Ruiz said, "I am a Catholic and wholeheartedly do accept death for God. Had I a thousand lives, all these to Him shall I offer."
hello.bishop.barron.thank u 4ur sermon today. I don't fear the one who can kill the body &cannot kill my soul. I read this reading in my bible. Fear God who can destroy u.❤❤I love my lord.

wow, this was the quote that made me pick him as my confirmation saint and I just happened to find your comment lmao
It is hard enough doing one. Lol.
We live in a world often controlled by evil lies and deceptions.
We, despite our best intentions, are often deceived at varies levels.
That is why you should not persecute people on the say so of others.
Beautiful sermon, Bishop Barron. There is much to be fearful of, and for me, the ONE thing I am afraid of is losing my soul. I am endeavoring to strengthen that part of me through prayer, detachment and learning. I know, unfortunately, how easy it is to fall so that your soul is in danger. Thank you for this reflection and for the reminder that there are men and women who have made that courageous choice to not lose contact with the Almighty by disregarding the danger to their flesh and appropriately safeguarding their souls. God bless you, Excellency.
I'm not afraid of being a Martyr like those he mentioned. I'm afraid of cranky drivers cutting me off on the road, irritable clients accusing me of being incompetent, angry family members making demands on me, wayward children leading immoral lives. . . It's all the little things that i fear, so i strike out in anger and hurt those around me. God have mercy on me.
Thank you Bishop Barron. I tune in from Kenya and I am so proud of our brothers the Ugandans, our neighbours to the west and their great Saint Lwanga and 22 companions. They gave a resounding "no" to homosexual sin and their actions reverberate the world over especially in these perilous times. Thank you Sir.
May the Uganda Martyrs pray for us. Amen.
A very meaningful sermon for me. Thank you Bishop Barron.
This is the best I have ever hears about Jersmiah.
Powerfully good for our soul.
God gave us Bishop Barron to enrich and open up our catholic faith.
THANK YOU

I have listened to this sermon twice and find it very inspirational. God is good, all the time!
I’m not a believer, but the LA Dodger that recently stood against the MLB PRIDE night in constance to his belief system inspires me. Protect the children, religious, gay or not.
Another powerful sermon, Bishop Barron. I love how you discuss the saints and they’re martyrdom. It makes me want to dive deeper into their lore. Kudos to you for making the Lord relevant to people of all ages in the here and now. ❤God bless all who hear this. Never fear, God is here. Always ready to forgive and love us forever. ❤❤❤
Your sermon’s have so. Much food for thought. May the Holy Spirit continue to inspire you to tell all that listen to the good news. My prayers are with you. Veronica 🙏🙏
My mother has been gone for 14 years, she would have loved Bishop Barron and his sermons.
What does it profits a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?! From our Good Lord Jesus Christ
All of your videos never fail to inspire and encourage me. You are one of the best preachers in the Church.
"The Lord is My Shepherd, I shall not want..."
For anyone who is away from God, He loves you and is Merciful and always forgives you if you repent and return (or turn) to Him 🙏❤
This relates to one of my favourite scriptures:
“The world will make you suffer (my words: be afraid, feel fearful, anxious, worried). But be brave (my words: not afraid), I have overcome the world!” John 16:33
Wonderful homily. Thank you.
St. Charles Lwanga and Pope St. John Paul II, pray for us!🙏
Another wonderful sermon, really can relate to a lot of the topics mentioned as I’m going through so many things at the moment. Lately have been having such a hard time with things and people and this one hits home.
A lot of my calm temperament comes from being faithful during my hardest times, prayers can go a long way but just knowing he’s there for me brings me peace on the daily. I like the metaphor of the castle of safety and peace. Thanks for the amazing message as always!
Anxiety is the base line of our social media age. And this is the great dark side trick…to remove hope in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To take our eyes away from the Lord of Life. Fr Clive

( The prophet Jeremiah is being persecuted because he is proclaiming the word of God to the people of God, calling them to repentance. A priest Pashhur has beaten the prophet Jeremiah and put him in prison.)
Bishop Barrons uses powerful examples of saints to demonstrate those who had fear of the Lord and could truly proclaim by their lives, "Be not afraid" in the midst of a world that gave reasons to fear.
There is something sobering about how we can suffer eternal punishment if we deny God, even as we marvel that God has made a way for us to Eternal Life to strengthen us in the midst of whatever evil can come at us in this world. Yet all the world can do is kill our bodies, not our souls.
That was a powerful sermon on faith over fear. It’s difficult to listen to stories about the saints, but the stories are also very inspiring. ♥️✝️
This is all everyone needs to know . This sermon right here. Nothing else. This is the main questions for every human being. God bless you Bishop Barron. 🙏🛐✝️
Let’s pray for all of the faithfully departed, Bishop Robert Barron!

Peace be with your spirit Bishop Barron. Thank you for this thought provoking sermon. One which really gets a person having to ask themselves this very question.🇨🇦✝️
God Bless you Bishop Barron! I needed to hear this today 🙏🏻 Jesus, I trust in You!
Thank you Bishop Barron. Please that we all go to confession much more frequently. God bless you greatly 🙏.
A very meaningful sermon for me. Thank you Bishop Barron.. A very meaningful sermon for me. Thank you Bishop Barron..
Surgery in a few hours, and I needed this.
Encouraging homily, it made me reflect upon my fears and failings and our call to repentance. Viva Cristo Rey! God bless you. 🙏❤️🩹🕊️
All I want anymore , is good health. I am afraid of suffering and pain.
“….for such a time as this” (Esther 4:14). Very fitting homily especially these days. This sermon’s wisdom combined with Bishop Barron’s video, The Mass, has been an unbelievable spiritual gift the past week. The latter was so riveting, I went back frequently to absorb its rich explanations, even took notes (never, ever do this) & shall revisit again. May blessings return 100 fold to you, Bishop Barron!
Up at 3 am on a work day after a nightmare. A lot of terror surrounds me. Then a pints with Aquinas pops up in my feed cause I am a Tolkien fan and Peter Kreeft. Then scrolling down a few " Be not afraid". The Lord is mighty and steadfast. I Fear the Lord and praise him in his all. My strength is renewed . My peace is eternal. Bless you Father Bishop. Keep up the good fight. ❤
This is the true 'safe space'...
God will never abound me and never forsake me
I trust in god. I pray he has better blessings in store for me.
I trust he wont let the resentful enemies toward me be the winner.
Please wish that i get a job and my documents back safely
Dearest Bishop Robert Barron,
Good morning!
A few weeks ago, I was struggling, and I eventually started to sense that fear inside of me was an attack by Satan meant to cripple my faith. And his attack was working because I was beginning to believe in Satan's agent. Whenever fear would assail me to distract my relationship with serving God, I tried to read the bible verses, but the fear didn't go away; since then, I have realized that many Christians experience similar challenges. Through the Sunday sermon, I find peace. I praise the Lord that I haven't doubted His saving work for turning my weaknesses into strengths and making it possible for me to live with Him and my family forever. Bishop, I pray that Jesus Christ continues to help me overcome fearful thoughts. Thank you for the Sunday sermon today and for praying for my family. God bless you all.
St. pray for us.
St. Faustina, pray for us.
Our lady of Lourdes, pray for us.
Sincerely yours,
Cecilia Dreger and family (📖❤)Wilbur Sacred Heart Parishioner( Bishop Thomas Daly and retired priest )
Thank You bishop for this please everybody who reads this pray For me i really need it
The Lord is my God and Saviour. He will have my soul since it is HIS to start with, my body will surely die, but my soul is HIS for Eternity.
I think what i want is not to suffer because im weak. And that's my fear, to suffer.
I feel brave and unafraid listening to the Bishop's wise and inspired words. Jesus grant us strength to carry our cross and Mother Mary thank you for showing us the way-the wisdom of asking for the gift of the fear of the Lord.
Prayers for Bishop Strickland of Tyler Texas.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I often think of faith in God as having our love in order (the first and second greatest commandment). The bishop addresses this from another perspective, which is having our fears in order. Thank you Sir!
Thank you so much for mentioning Saint Jose! I've been studying the Cristero War/ Mexico's persecution of Catholics, and I've been so frustrated with how little people know about it, especially my fellow Catholics!

“As his body grew weaker, his faith grew stronger” • St John Fisher
I have always been Catholic. Go to church on sunday and holy days. Just going to confession regularly in the last few years. But not not a true journey with God until I was 77 years old. Bible in a year, twice, Catechism in a year, rosary daily, reading, daily mass. I regret waiting so long. Really taking part in the mass. Thank you Bishop ...
Better late than never!
Thanks bishop its like a yesterday Mass the message I like that thanks ilove your tiching
I want to be united with God.
Bishop Barron thank you so much for teaching on the reality of mortal sin. I’ve found many clergy don’t believe in it.
God said Fear ME I Fear God not death 🙏 God is wonderful giving ad Loving 🙏 Amen
thank you for all that you do Bishop Barron! we are very blessed to have you. God bless you!
Thanks Bishop you have reminded me of the exact experience of a true and committed Christian. The living of the beatitudes. I pray for you
A well served life in the service of God a coredemptist in His Grand scale of things has no room on the fear of death! We should not afraid of losing our life what we should be afraid of is not living life! K
Thank you as always, Bishop Barron. Today was especially powerful. Simple, deep, basic set our priorities. Please be well and safe. Surely, all on earth need to hear your voice.
How wonderful - Thank you for that.
Thank you Bishop. God bless you ❤🙏
I do not want to fall away from our Loving God Bishop Barron!!! Despite not having any support from my family, my loved ones and not yet being part of a close community of believers within the Catholic Church. Also not yet participating in service for those who are in need for our Lord. To overcome the obstacles, the challenges I face within and those outside. To persevere regardless of the thoughts and the senses, that are trying to distance me from my God given Faith, to our Eternal Loving Father God, to our Loving Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, to our Lord the Giver of Life, our Great Advocate, the Holy Spirit, and to the Catholic Church!!! Thank you Bishop Barron for this very important Sermon, and these questions we need to ask ourselves...And to TRUST our Lord Jesus Christ's WORDS...TO NOT FEAR what can kill the body BUT FEAR THE ONE WHO CAN KILL THE BODY AND SOUL!!! Our spirit, where God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit ABIDES and my spirit ABIDES IN GOD!!! I pray to the Lord God to keep me CLOSE TO HIM. Could you please pray with me too Bishop Barron?
Mary Queen of a peace pray for us🙏
They with ears to hear, let them hear:
Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit!
Hear me when I say, ye that are Catholic have been deceived and know not God. Ye worship Mary, praying to her; when God tells his to worship none other than him. It is idolatry.
Catholicism has its own Bible and teachings, which are blasphemous to the word of God: the Holy Bible. As ye follow the teachings of man and not God; ye hear the pope, but not Jesus, yet ye claim to be his disciples!
These are but a few things I named ye dwell within; there are many more. I tell you now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father!
There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you!
They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God...
Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask:
"Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen."
Revelation 22:8-9 KJV
8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
Acts 2:38 KJV
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Luke 11:13 KJV
13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
John 14:21-24 KJV
21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.*
22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?
23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.*
24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*
3 John 1:11 KJV
11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. *He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.*
1 John 3:6-10 KJV
6 *Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.*
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: *he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.*
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
9 *Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.*
10 *In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God,* neither he that loveth not his brother.
@@Call_Upon_YAHcatholics put together the bible you read today
1) Please pay attention to the prayers said at the Mass.
2) This Sunday, Psalm 69 was read. A verse in it is
This is my prayer to you, my prayer for your favour. In your great love, answer me, O God, with your help that never fails.
3)Prayer for peace at Mass asking the Lord, who gives peace, to look not on our sins and grant the Church peace
Lord Jesus Christ, who said to your Apostles: Peace I leave you, my peace I give you;
look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church, and graciously grant her peace and unity in accordance with your will.
4) Ask any priest about the above things.
I will admit I could not get through Interior Castle, and have been reading The Life of St. Theresa of Avila. But that one remark of yours, Bishop Barron, that is how she would’ve thought about a castle. Not like a Disneyfied version, but a defensive structure, a rampart. That sheds a whole new light on what she was talking about. I will have to give it another try. Thank you.
Hearing that Jeremiah reading, I interpreted "the one that could kill the body and the soul" as Satan, who will take the soul if you allow. So be afraid of Satan's temptations that can steal your soul. Do the opposite - always remain in the Lord who always saves my soul.
God bless you Bishop Barron. Every Saturday tuned in from Calgary-Canada.

I’m not catholic but I’ve always wanted to learn more. Very good sermon! Usually we always stick to the churches we were raised and I’m ready to have a more open mind.
Thank you Bishop Barron for Sunday Sermon❤😍
Greetings from Holy Russia 🇷🇺
I can never thank you enough for your homilies. I fear that when push comes to shove , I will abandon my God . Bishop pray that that the weak like myself have faith and not let fear become the primary concern of life .
It's the faith of Christ on our behalf that matters most. We are all weak at times but Jesus is the strong son of God who rescues us!
I'm not afraid of the moment of death itself but of what may be waiting for me on the other side
good one - and may Our LORD BLESS you too
Remember 1st Saturday devotion July 1. For Mary’s request at Fatima, to receive special graces 🙏
I’m afraid of hearing “you wicked, lazy slave” for burying my talents and squandering opportunities…tho not in overt sin, just seemingly never making good choices. Learning to trust Him❤
You’re the best, Bishop Barron.
🔝🔝🔝
Bishop Barron shall be Pope one day.
Thank you for that wonderful encouragement. I love the truth, God is our champion!!!
No,be afraid,be very afraid.
Thank you again. Your sermon always brings more understanding for me.
Thank you. Bp. Barron's sermons are always food for both the mind and soul.
Grazie! La seguo dall'Italia e per capire uso i sottotitoli, perché capisco meglio lo scritto in inglese rispetto al parlato. Questa omelia mi è stata molto utile.

This may sound silly but one of my biggest fears is fear of becoming anxious or deeply upset inside because of what others might do to me. I don't even care what happens to me, that's God's business and he knows best, but I fear the way it may make me feel. I fear my feelings really, I seem to have such little control over them and I can get these anxiety attacks that really aren't nice. I don't know where this all comes from but it is a hindrance to me and even just tonight I've been pleading with the Holy Mother of God to save me from all of this.
Aside from that, my biggest fear in all the world is intentionally sinning against God and offending him. I am flesh and spirit.
Thanks be to God for BB who stands up against anti-Catholic bigotry while the rest of the clergy is too afraid to defend the faith. God bless you Bishop!
Beautiful wisdom 🙏🏼💯📿🙌🏼
