  • Friends, today we continue our series on “Understanding Genesis.” Last time we focused on Creation and today we’re discussing Adam, Eve, and the Fall. How should we understand the creation of Adam and Eve? What actually happened at the Fall? Bishop Barron and Brandon Vogt discuss.
    A listener asks, why would Mark end his Gospel with the women not telling the Apostles about the resurrection?

    Bishop Barron just said something that is going to change my life from this day forward: "The negative is a...privation of what ought to be there. Being, and positivity, is always more ontologically basic than negativity." Basically, suffering is not a thing! God's goodness is all there is, and any suffering, sadness, pain that appears is, I guess you could say, the absence of what is real and true, God's love. And that only happens with our permission; hence, the Fall. Up until I heard those words just now, I gave suffering a place of honor in my reality hierarchy, when actually it doesn't belong on there at all. Mind blown.

    One thing that’s interesting to note is..God had to know that Adam would take that bite out of the fruit. God put that tree of knowledge in front of Adam and pointed to it. So is God saying to humans… the one thing that will destroy you is this. Kind of the big warning you get in instruction manuals..CAUTION you may get electrocuted if you immerse in water. It’s Gods Human Instruction Manual?? So the message is for us… not Adam. I love these discussions. Thank you Bishop Barron for sharing your wisdom.

    I had this life changing dream about 20 years ago, where I was in the garden of Eden and darn if I didn’t bite the apple! That is when I realized that it was part of my human nature to seek out life under my own terms. Controlling my desire to control and practicing the art of submission to God’s will changed everything. Only then did I begin to recognize what God would make of me.

      Sounds like you ate from The Tree of Life without knowing it. Indeed, listening to the deeper part of the self is eating from The Tree of Life, which you were already doing. I think God winked at you.
      We all eat from the Tree of Death when we start to see are differences before or common humanity in childhood. Stay humble.

    @AmericanGuy7654 2 роки тому +7

    What Bishop Barron says about suffering and original sin seems to me fundamental in the Buddhist-Christian dialogue. As far as I am aware Buddhism begins with the premise “all life is suffering” and falls into the mistake Bishop Barron mentions of beginning with the negative. Suffering implies that there is a good, a positive good, that is not being attained, whether that is physical suffering or mental suffering. In a way this a point of contact between Buddhism and Christianity, the Buddhist recognition of suffering is like original sin, a recognition that the world as it exists is not the way it should be. However by starting off a negative footing, Buddhism, as it seems to me at least, can’t articulate a positive vision of how the world will be set aright, aside from a passive acceptance of suffering and a turn toward interiority. Again I am no expert on Buddhism, and hope I am not misrepresenting its doctrines.
