Posted on 11/06/2022 2:34:10 PM PST by MurphsLaw

Today's Sermon by the Bishop reflects on today's readings
with the focus on the hope of bodily life after death.

15 min YouTube link of the Sermon below.

The Reality of Life After Death



TOPICS: Catholic
KEYWORDS:
Today's Gospel Reflection on life after death.

Luke 20:27-38
Friends, in today’s Gospel,
we see Jesus sparring with the Sadducees about the general resurrection of the dead. The discussion is an important one,
since we Christians place Jesus’ own Resurrection at the center of our faith.

What’s important in this Gospel passage is affirming that the resurrection is a bodily event.
Notice how, in the accounts of Jesus’ particular Resurrection, the concrete,
physical facticity of the Lord is continually emphasized. This confirms that what we await,
as Paul said, is a spiritualized body, a transformed, elevated body,
a body raised to a new key and a new dimension—
but it will be a body.

What’s the reason for this sermon if Boobie dares hope Hell is empty?

He's probably just looking to tweak the demonic schismatic sede's
and psuedo-sede's trashing the Church Christ gave us,
with this distracting Macabbees stuff...

Or he's just trying to get more praise from Catholics all over the world...
As the comments on his YouTube video channel would suggest.
What a ham...

Oh, I'm sure Boobie is tweaking a few things:

Bishop Robert Barron’s Disturbing Musclemen Fetish is a Scandal by Itself


Fr Steven Grunow, CEO of Word on Fire Catholic Ministry


Joseph “Joey” Gloor is Bishop Robert Barron’s “Producer”

Bishop Barron would not reverse Supreme Court’s decision which legalized same-sex marriage

Sleep on that, Murph.

Of course, "pride" is one of the deadly sins. Are you guilty of it also with your rash judgements?

Just another "feel-good" charlatan, like this one:

Joel Olsteen

Joel osteen?
Shoulda went with Benny Hinn…. At least you get a pretty good show with Joel- if that’s your cup of tea.

But I wonder if Mr. Osteen gets comments like Bishop Barron receives [from yesterday’s video if you would like to verify] on his sharing of the Gospel.
Such as:

Dear Bishop Baron. Thank you your explanations of the Bible readings.
As an 82 year old Roman Catholic in my day we did not EVER refer to any bible scriptures. Your opening up a new world to me.
[Bold emphasis mine]

John D 17 hours ago
From Ireland. Thank you Bishop Robert for making sense out of these homilies
for the ordinary Folk who keep searching for the Lord.


Zane A 1 hour ago
Greetings Bishop Barron from THAILAND. [emphasis mine] can’t wait for your message every day!!!!

Queen of Lammersland 22 hours ago
Thank you, Bishop Barron! My husband and I have fallen away from regular Mass attendance,
Both because of infirmities of age and also because we are fed woke Homilies
that suggest that God delivers justice through our political processes.
You have given us what we long for… a deeper understanding of the Bible.
[Bold emphasis mine]
The story in Maccabees was radical in a time when bodily resurrection wasn’t thought of.
So radical that Luther excluded the book
from the canon of scripture in the Reformation.
This understanding is Meat and drink to the faithful,
not banal scolding of all of us sinners, who must all hope to be in
God’s presence.
Please pray for us, and all who may be driven away from the church by an absence of Catechesis.

Its obvious why all schismatics must combat this energy
and those God seeking individuals wanting a deeper faith.
You will NOT prevail.

I engage the battle with same armor as my combatant.

It's super fair that way...

See: Sun Tzu

>>See: Sun Tzu:<<

It focuses much more on alternatives to battle and even to war than on war itself, such as stratagem, delay, the use of spies, the making and keeping of alliances, the uses of deceit, and a willingness to submit, at least temporarily, to more powerful foes.

Yep! That's right up your alley.
