The Beauty of the Law - Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermon
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2021
- Friends, the more we revere something, the more we surround it with laws. The most important thing in our lives is to be in harmony with God, and so we follow his divine law. We must, with prudence and wisdom, distinguish between the commandments of God that structure us, and fussy human traditions that distract from our relationship with him.

THE *BEAUTY* OF THE *LAW*
@Joseito Pinar
Do appreciate your lovely presence☆
Thanks ever so much☆ Big God bless☆
@Synchro Metanom
*The Sermon* is not about "right and wrong" man made laws. The commentary is on the text in the book of DEUTERONOMY in the Bible.
To everyone reading this I ask you God, to give the person a complete knowledge of Your will and to give them spiritual wisdom and understanding. Then the way their lives will always honor and please You Lord, and their lives will produce every kind of good fruit of greatness. In Jesus Name. Amen
PRAYER TO THE SACRED HEAD
of Our Blessed Lord, as the Seat of Divine Wisdom
O Wisdom of the Sacred Head guide me in all my ways.
O Love of The Sacred Heart, consume me with Thy fire.
O Seat of Divine Wisdom, and guiding Power, which governs all the motions and love of the Sacred Heart, may all minds know Thee all hearts love Thee and all tongues praise Thee, now and for evermore.
O WILL, which was always in meek subjection to Thy Heavenly Father’s, control me in all things, as Thou didst govern all the affections and motions of the Sacred Heart of the God made Man.
Glory Be…
O UNDERSTANDING, which knows all things, ever guide me with Thy Light.
Glory Be…
O MEMORY, in which past, present and future are at once reflected, which is ever mindful of me and always seems studying some new means of giving fresh favours, force me to love Thee more and more.
Glory Be…
Thank you. :-)

Truly a gifted homilist. Week after week he threads together the beautiful, difficult passages of the Word with our modern mode of living into a Catholic understanding of the world. The best possible use of social media. God bless you Bishop Barron

*Living the moral and spiritual life. To live our life now in proper harmony with God; there is nothing more important☆"*

You have wrong understanding.
May God shine his light on you.
That's a very clear and appreciable statement of Bishop Barron. I love this sermon. God bless you, Mary!

Thanks A Million for your valuable presence☆ Stay blessed☆☆
@@smoker420la The bible clearly states that death is the penalty for sin. This is only logical given the Ontology Of The JudeoChristian God, Whom is identified as life itself, ergo what explicit resultant occurs through deviation from life- decay and eventual death.
Now the genesis narrative, whether taken literally or figuratively, irrespectively accomplishes the conveyance Of this facticity- humanity, represented by the progenitor figures of Adam and Eve, sinned, and consequently degeneration and death entered into them, and indeed all of creation, for how could imperfect beings, still then reside in a perfect world.
A common misconception, perhaps in the contemporary sense, derived most clearly from graeco-philosophical thought, particularly platonic- is to conceptualise the physical and spiritual realities as two staunchly independent, and functionally isolated realms of matter, when in fact the original Hebrew understanding was always that of deep, and inextricable interwoven nature. Consequently, these two spheres of reality are able to interact (as with the human soul-neurobiological matter interface), and to confer effects upon one another. This is true for both the positive, and negative qualities of each. For instance mental faculties such as knowledge, wisdom, creativity, piety etc, and the contingent sinful context also.
Think of it as a spiritual genetic analogue; in like manner to inheritance of select physical traits from one’s biological parents, humans- being such spiritual-physical integrated hybrids, also ‘inherit’ certain spiritual properties, one of which is the fallen state, or the ‘original sin’ - whether committed by a literal Adam and Eve, or simply the first humans sufficiently advanced in psychology, to be morally culpable, who then reproduced to pass on such a fallen disposition, and hence the chain reaction of human progenitive transmission, conferred the death penalty to all humans, regardless of age or spatiotemporal localisation, through precisely this mechanic of shared inheritance, of the sinful-spiritual property or character.
For this reason, a God whom is Uncreated, and thus Immutable and Limitless Justice (due to preceding both spatial and temporal reality confines, and so any attributional parameterisation), would logically be wholly justified in instantaneously eradicating any, even infinitesimal Created Substrate, that harboured such Reality-Ontological Violation, which is to say- sin.
It is truly therefore, only a testament to this same God’s simultaneous Characterisation as Omnibenevolent, that both creation remains, and He additionally persisted,- in spite of our repeated wickedness, and unrelenting arrogance, in providing a totally free and so Ineffably gratuitous- redemptive path, to restore the fallen state of creation, that naught other than we caused, and fervently maintain.
That in short, is why this Unchangingly consistent God can ‘kill babies’ ~ they are not immortal, as nothing in this reality is, and so pass the definitive ontological litmus test for sinful corruption, thus warranting Just death. It is only true Divine Omni-Levelled Beneficence, as to why anything subsequently still remains, and why in the therefore Necessary Deific-Messiah, there is any hope, for any construct of creation. Unformable-Triune YHWH bless you sincerely, and always friend. 😊

Thanks for your kind and valuable presence. @Tats Nstuff is a fixated mind. May God bless him☆
Thank you Bishop Barron! Please pray for our country, South Africa. Our law system is more or less in chaos, as it reflects our society, rife with corruption and a lack of ethics. The law and the society it governs are constantly playing in on each other. Here, our law is constantly under threat, fortunately, the Constitutional Court is still standing, but is being subjected to erosion by governing agencies. Please pray for us in South Africa. For all the poor, and the unemployed youth.
Well said! I’m publishing a weekly UA-cam video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you
These homilies are absolutely golden. Life changing in a way.
Bp Barron your work makes a huge difference in the world.
Thanks 🌷 , pray for me father so I can devote my self to Mary pure heart & help my family and society.

As a cradle Catholic (I'm 69 yrs old) some have said to me that they don't want to go back to the days (pre-Vatican II) when the Church was a bunch of rules and regulations (fasting, abstinence, confession, devotion, prayer, etc.). I suppose some think that it's too difficult to evangelize people if they are faced with such rules (laws) adopted by the Church. Past laws were never meant to be prohibitive but rather, to lead people spirituality to a reverent relationship with Jesus Christ. Only today, people are more concerned with their comfort zone than they are with true devotion.
That was fabulous. Thank you!
Master communicator. Thank you for what you do.
God bless you. Great teacher of our time. I pray for you.
Such a great sermon. God bless Bishop Barron. I so appreciate him.
You never cease to surprise, Bishop Barron. First class...as usual.
Thank you Bishop Barron for making the difficult readings & the gospel in the bible alive & relevant to our lives. God bless you more🙏🤓
Donners mooi. Sjoe.
“The more we reverence something, the more we surround it with laws.”
It’s an indictment on us regarding the dignity of human life. Our laws allow for the legal, intentional killing of innocent human beings by dismemberment. Therefore, we don’t reverence human life.
O God help me to be doers of the word. Amen 😇🙏🏽🙂❤️🕊️

“Jesus is the Torah made Flesh”, amen and amen! Beautiful!! John 1:1! Blessed flesh and blessed Word that gives eternal life! Gives Freedom …
Humbly welcome the word that has been planted in you and is able to save your souls.
Be doers of the word and not hearers only. Thank you Bishop
Thank you very much, Bishop Barron. The lucid explanation on the spirit of the law is clear and precise; it is all about building a beautiful relationship with God. Thank you for nourishing our spiritual life with your well prepared gifts of teaching and preaching. May God continue to bless you with the fullness of the Holy Spirit
This sermon reminded me of a great book I read named “Joshua” the essence of Christ and His teachings were to be one with God’s will and not the pomp and circumstances man has attributed to it. God wants purity of heart and thoughts. Jesus came to bring the simplicity to man. He said I am the truth and the way.
Great sermon once again.
I love what you say Jay, "Jesus came to bring the simplicity to man".
God bless you Bishop 🙏
This is my favorite sermon of yours to date Bishop. I am always inspired by you and today I have been enlightened. You think and speak so clearly that your thoughts are grasped be even the least of thy brothers. Thank you and God bless you.
Thank you bishop for sharing about the important of the LAW🙏
Thank you Bisbop Barron. You are God's mouthpiece. You enlightened us and inpire us. May God protects you and continue to inspire you in spreading the goodnews. God bless you Bishop Barron, we love you and we need you.😇❤The world now has so many confusion, we get puzzled.
Bishop Robert, Thank you so much for not hedging about the beauty of God's law, making clear that its beauty is in making us holy so we can please and get near to our so beautiful Creator and Law-Giver. Truly a breath of fresh, celestial air.
What a great sermon.. God bless you Bishop Barron.. And what a SLAP to protestants and extreme traditional catholics lol
Agree, I also feel it was a slap to both traditionalist catholics and progressive catholics.
@@carlosvillarreal6743
The Sermon is simply for anyone or any groups. I seriously doubt that Bishop has such thoughts in his head when he speaks. The level of quality doesn't suggest it.
Your sermons are so strongly connected to modern life! I'm so grateful for your insights and inspiration that you share with all of us!
Thank you so much, Bishop Barron. As one who teaches the Old Testament it has been my constant battle to try to convey what you are talking about.
It’s Sunday, Let us pray for the people that knowingly gave TRUTH a thumbs down.
"He who commits sin is the slave of sin." - JC
"No king but Christ"

This! This, here, is really and truly a gold mine.

It is beautiful homelist and it is wonderful Word on fire😍🙏😮
Great homily on keeping the sprit rather than the letter of the Law. You always invite us to open our hearts as well as our minds to the immutable teachings of the Church, to go beyond the superficial. God bless!
Amazing sermon. Thank you, Bishop.
Bishop please pray for my familia y todos
Beautiful homily as always, Bishop. God bless you
Thank you Bishop for reminding us about the beauty of being God’s disciple and at the same time about the responsibility that goes along with it.
Thank you Bishop Barron for very inspiring sermon. There is nothing more important than living the LAW of GOD and the church.
The law had a purpose, to separate God’s people from their pagan neighbors. It protected them from foreign influence and kept them holly. And their many descent into another gods adoration shows us just how much appropriate were these laws.
But the world changed, the Word became flash and changed history and the law became obsolete, it had already fulfilled in Jesus it’s purpose and with us the Lam left the laws that were important to us, to guide and protect us in OUR days.
As we can see, reform is something good, something that God taught us.
I’ve been exposed to delta variant Lord hear my prayers.
Praying for you☆
Thank you, Bishop Barron, for preaching this sermon.
There it is Bishop..."dont be resistant to God's law..accept and rejoice in it fully..thank you.
This is a Sunday habit I treasure; thank you.
The beauty of the Law is that it shows man how much of a complete failure he is and that he is under the condemnation of death. It makes the Grace of God entered into by faith all the more wonderful for the believing sinner.
I stumbled across this today, Bishop Barron, and this is a very important sermon from your side. You are touching a very big subject very eloquently. The idea of human tradition and how it interferes with the law of the Almighty. Some words like "sola scriptura" inevitably jump to mind when we touch this subject. Against this background, I am pleasantly surprised to hear this insight and wisdom from you. May the dear Lord bless you as you ponder this topic, as I have no doubt that you will.
In finishing off, two more item to bring to the attention here, and given that you are a well educated person, I have no doubt that you will see what I mean:
(2). Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
(4). 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Good stuff, thanks. The mention of lawyers brought to my mind the movie "Ghandi" which I just watched with a friend this week. It was great to learn that Ghandi was a lawyer because I feel it is where lawyers need to strive rather than wealth and other fruitless attainments.
I know about laws of human life but the laws of our God should be favored.
Very good.
May God’s Divine will be done in all areas of our lives, especially in the way we worship our all-loving God. Since God created everything, including human beings, He deserves the most beautiful worship we can give, wherever we are. Heavenly Father please lead and guide all of us in your Holy, Divine Will. Let us follow your ways of charity, truth, goodness and beauty. In the Holy Name of Jesus, Amen.
Bishop Barron, thank you for your clarification and practical “boots on the ground” breaking open of the Gospel! I believe our Holy Father Francis in his recent limiting of the blanket practice of the Latin Mass is trying to help the faithful realize it is not the Latin language or orientation of the priest that makes the Liturgy holy! The “rules” are essential for the proper Order of the Mass…. But not more holy in Latin
No its an attack he is trying to get rid of it. But the reasons he is claiming are true. There are better ways to fix this problem that trying to take the Latin mass away from people.
What an excellent sermon! Bishop Barron always gets down to the core issue of the gospel and lays it out in a real-reasoned talk.
Beautifully said Bishop Barron. When you speak of what we reverence, I thought of marriage.
I tend to be one of those "don't tread on me" types. I do believe it goes against God's moral law to coerce someone to live the way you think is best. Respecting our natural rights is so crucial, and a principle most people do not understand. I came from a religious background that sought to micromanage me- no coffee or alcohol, don't shop or have recreation on Sunday, fulfill every petty requirement given by church leaders without complaint. My spirit definitely rebelled against such strictures.
But I see how in general society, we have lost the respect for the true law and that leads to division and chaos. Finding the proper balance between adherence to God's true law and respecting people's agency is no easy task, but one that we should seek to accomplish. Thank you.
This is a beautiful message! I'm a first year law student, so I enjoyed this very much. Thank you for motivating me and reminding me why I'm doing this.
I never heard the law spoken back ever. Perfect! Bishop Barron, Amene
I think most people, whether they are religious or not, modern or native, have a natural understanding of “the law” without ever needing to call it a law. You don’t need a Torah to live by those principles.
I love your homily today, Bishop!You delivered them with wisdom, as always.
Yes, the Law was given for us to follow, otherwise, our lives would be chaotic all the time.
Imagine the world/Country without Laws?
Imagine the Street without Light's to follow?
Imagine places without laws or prohibitions to do certain things?
Imagine heaven without requirements as to WHO can enter and not?
then, Lucifer would still be there.
Laws are given to See whose obedient enough to listen and obey God's words.
Thank you, Bishop!
Another wonderful insight.
Thank you! Your words were very beautiful! ❤
Thank you for bringing these words into my heart! Bless you!
Thank you for this analogy... Easily understandable and relatable for my students and children.
That God knows better and LOVE more! With mercy
Great Sermon!!
Thank you BB!
this is absolutely fabulous as an explanation for the readings this week. thank you so much!
You know I have never thought about that Your Excellency, but it does make sense when it comes to laws being made when we reverence something.
Always love your clarity!
Goodness gracious! The first four minutes had me laughing at those hilarious examples: "Hey, can I take this rock home and paint it?" "The Mona Lisa's nice, but I want to add some paint to it."
What an insightful sermon. I have never thought of the law this way and I love the line, "because it protects and enhances our soul and relationship with God". That makes so much sense to me. Thank you Bishop Baron. God bless.
Cutting out the fussiness without cutting out proper reverence that God deserves and commands is quite difficult. We must pray for God's Grace to worship Him in the ways that please Him.
Thank you for your wonderfully thought provoking insight Bishop Barron.
What pleases God is a contrite heart . I am always reminded of the passage on " Religious hypocrisy" in the Book of Isaiah ( I think chapter 2) . God says to take away from Him all the solemnities and festivals. He can't stand no more the smoke of their sacrifices . "Instead" He says " present yourself to me. Come let's talk this over " . Jesus was never against liturgical reverence or tradition ( He was Jew and fully observant of Mosaic law) , what He had an issue with, was the inconsistency of showing a , way too otward reverence , while neglecting what should be at the core of that devotion : justice, love, honesty, mercy, integrity .... You can see how nowadays people shout about " returning to tradition" , while trampling upon love, charity and mutual respect . What we do outside ought to be an expression of something which has its origin within ourselves . Lex orandi , Lex credendi right? But of what avail is to us to be the most reverent Mass goer , If that attitude is tainted with pride and self righteousness ? Better is a peasant who humbly worship and serve God in obedience .
Amen! 🙏🏻
Thank you Bishop Barron! God bless you! My prayer!
Amen
Made me remember one passage from “The Chosen”, when a priest asks Jesus if there is something wrong with him, and He replies “apparently everything”.
God bless you Bishop, and Dallas for the Show.
Bishop Barron and The Chosen are two things that are really exciting right now for Christians, both are really helping people to understand what it's all about😁♥️
Gifted homilist
Great sermon. To oblige people to hear pop music in Missal is a human tradition.
The topic of the Sermon is BEAUTY OF THE LAW.
This was very insightful as a warning to the dangers of becoming too dependent on a legal code to ensure reverence and adherence to the spirit of God's will and intentions for our lives and God's liturgies. On the other hand, I feel too little time is spent by those in high positions talking about the dangers of the antithesis to it and the fruit that antithesis has produced. Clown masses, irreverent liturgies, and unbelieving clergy have helped induce a crisis in the Church that a stricter adherence would, arguably, have not produced.
Wow! You were cooking today! Thanks Bishop Barron - you made some good points, much food for thought!
I love watching these.
Besides the homily……what a terrific job with the videography and it’s different vantage points.
It is amazing to me how your sermons educate and inform. I have struggled with the belief vs the ceremony of the laws of the church. With "control" vs "teaching/informing" . Your metaphors have helped to understand and to distinguish the true vs the oppressive control. I wish more people could hear you.
Grateful
Thank you Bishop
Thank You Bishop Barron. The Father gave us laws out of love; do we really love for one another enough to share his purpose here on earth or are we attempting to control one another , gain compliance and conformity? and I think you are correct about ' Too Many Lawyers' ... Have a Great Week!
Hi Bishop Barron
I loved this homily. Can you preach more often about the beauty of God's law and about Divine Mercy? I think that those are two areas where you are more gifted than even other areas where you are gifted. I like your analogies and your golf story and not just because I am a golfer too it really captured the essence of why doing morally wrong actions is inherently wrong not just breaking an arbitrary rule. I thought it was very memorable and relatable.
This homily was a home run.
Love the law example and necessity, almost a full treatise for the proof of law and the lawgiver
RE the armoured knights of agincourt and crecy
Closing comments unfortunately spot on . Jesus said he came to uphold the Law not change It . Today some folks annoyed by how the Mass is celebrated . Is a candy bar different because it comes in a unfamilar wrapper ? A lot of energy and emotion wasted on distraction . The goal is eternal life through Jesus who appointed Peter and his successors as our Sheperds with the guidence of the Holy Spirit . Trust in Jesus . Remember and take comfort , dispite all God is in charge . What a world we would have if we "love one another as I have loved you ."
Word.
Thank you for putting the beauty of the law into another perspective especially using the golf course “many laws”. We need to be more understanding to demonstrate grace and mercy. I hope my aunt received understanding when I sent text with 🌹 “ We need to be patient and kindness “. I meant that and hate the way she feels after our conversation. I hope she’s in good spirits.
Amén Bishop Barron. May God Bless You for delivering such a beautiful Homily. I agree. It is unfortunate that some church traditions have changed overtime; yet more so when the pandemic started. But I feel blessed for All the Pope Francis is doing during these challenging times. Blessings to Our Pope, Bishops, and all Clergy doing their best to keep church traditions and doctrine genuine. My heart and prayers go out to even the smallest parishes throughout the world experience dire need for vocations. Amén 🙏🏻
The example of law surrounding a museum is interesting. Because in some of these famous museums lie items which have been stolen, took with contempt from others to whom they haven't shown any respect (moral laws). God's laws are beautiful and God creates us by inserting in our intelligible nature some laws.

I watch Bishop Barron's videos just to listen to him speaking. What eloquence. What a resonating voice! It's music to my ears.
And handsome too.
The Catechism cuts to the heart of this matter. It brought me to a better understanding after seeing the legalism in the Church that was pronounced in the '60s. For all of those who have fallen away, I beg you to read it with an open mind. God Bless, Your Excellency.
