This was very intriguing. I liked how you compared satan's hold on us to be merely a game of "cat and mouse". I also liked how you compared the allurement of worldly possessions to neon signs fading in the sunrise. (1st John 2:16-17) I took a look back at some of my previous notes and found a verse that relates to your message. (Psalms 63:6-7) Thanks again for sharing I look forward to future bible studies.
This was absolutely wonderful! It was the perfect way to start my morning after prayer. Please continue to do this. Thank you Matt!
Loved this. I am always looking for good Bible study resources. There are amazing ones on Formed, but I would love to hear more on this platform. I have learned so much from you, Matt Fradd, and your guests! Thank you so much for all that you do on this platform! I still have so far to go, but my faith has definitely been strengthened by listening to Pints with Aquinas. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and Aquinas' commentary on this section of scripture. God bless you and your family.
What's your favourite bible verse?
This is great! I just happened to stumble across this while looking for a bible study session to listen to. You should do more videos like this for sure.
Matt, I came across this searching for a Catholic bible study. There is so much from the reformed theologians online ... the intetnet is nearly drowning in their interpretation of the bible.
I would love to see and hear more of these. There is a thirst for this type of Catholic material.
On the format.. 20 to 30 mins is brilliant.
These videos are so helpful....it’s so nice to hear the Bible/Aquinas be simplified so that us non-experts can understand and learn. It’s so hard to be in a business mindset for my job and then switch gears to read these thinkers or the Bible without a guide (not to mention the responsibility of being a husband and father with the duty of being a spiritual leader). Videos like this help me immensely. Once I can get my wife on board with a budget I will do my best to support you and some other scholars/youtubers. Thanks for all you do. Truly love Pints with Aquinas, counsel of Trent, Catholic answers, Steve Ray, David Wood, WLC, and capturing Christianity. God bless you Matt and the rest.
Would love to hear y'alls thoughts on the passage we looked at.
John 16:33 has been one of my favorite verses to study, especially in these difficult times. I particularly enjoy it because the language that Christ uses strongly evokes the emotion and charisma of a conquering king, which is an aspect of his character which I feel is often overlooked. This specific passage really shows him off as the "Lion of Judah."
Matt Fradd the part when Jesus said “behold the hour is coming and has arrived when each of you will be scattered to his own home and you will leave me alone”.that hit me hard. Dang Thomas Aquinas commentary just makes a lot of sense as well.
Matt Fradd Can you also do more of these please .
A little bit random... but could you link me with what brand and model of glasses you're wearing???
I don't think St. Thomas Aquinas talks on the Old Testament, but could you comment on Leviticus a book we are all too comfortable being bored with.
If not them 1John 3 or 1 Thessalonians 5
I'd love to see more of these. 20 minutes is a good time, not too short, not too long, and I just really liked the way you talked about the topic and I liked Aquinas's commentary as well.
I love this, Matt. I hope to see more of this. St. Aquinas' commentary is so rich!
Loved it!! Please do more!!!!
Thanks so much Matt! These verses have been on my heart recently so just wanted to thank you so much! God bless❤
Please make this a regular thing.
I'd love more of these. Not many 'bible study' options in my area outside the Protestants (which I've joined a handful of times)
This was great!
15-30 minute Catholic Bible studies would be a great addition to the world! And another way in to Aquinas for us lay people. Thank you.
Loved it...loved it...loved it...would love to see more videos like these Matt Fradd. Especially if it involves Thomas Aquinas’ commentaries. Christ said..”I have overcome the world”....this is not only a comfort for the faithful but a source of great strength and we need to keep our eyes fixed on Christ, through Him alone we shall be able to conquer every attack of the evil one. Also, without tribulation, we might not see the glory of God....
Also liked the part, where Matt said..we shouldn’t remain in our abandonment (gosh we do that so often)but return to Christ....
Awesome! Look forward to more Bible study videos...
Matt, this was inspiring, insightful, informative, and interesting all in one! I love this video and you do a great job explaining it. The analogies you give build up our understanding that it comes down to two choices...suffer without Christ (despair) or suffer with Christ (hope and salvation).
We are missing you on Ascension presents
Our hearts are restless until we rest in Christ, the King of Peace 🙏
Please continue with this bible study. I’d like to understand the Bible more so that I can deepen my faith, it’s been shaky lately. Please do a bible study on the book of Revelation
Glory be to Jesus Christ!
Diggin’ the beard my brothwr
Thanks
If God exists she's out there watching this on TH-cam (the free one, with ads) and NOT just popping over to settle the whole thing once and for all.
Truely awesome, Matt! I will most definitely watch all bible study video's you post. St Thomas Aquinas feels like heavy intellectual weightlifting up until now, but you made it alot more accessible to me today. Another couple of these vids and I'll find the courage to start reading his books. Thanks alot!
I must say Matt. I'm digging the new hairstyle. Goes well with the beard.
Thank you! Really good stuff!!! I esp liked the part about Jesus giving them.peace even when they were about to abandon Him and saying it so they wouldn't remain in the state of abandonment. What a loving shepherd He is! You represent Him very well. Thanks for that. God bless you and yours
Still doing the sign of the cross wrong Matt. Ha
Must be a Byzantine thing. ha. Love you bro.
Eastern traditions go right to left
erravii - Thanks. I looked it up. Interesting. So much to learn about Catholicism. Just wish Matt was left handed...
This is one of my favorite videos you've done yet! And I've watched many. Thank you for all your work! And please do many more of these.
Yes please! Love the format, brevity and use of St Thomas Aquinas' words. It's "chewable". Enough to stimulate meaningful thought and meditation. As well as not being too much that it's overwhelming. In other words, I can use this and put it into action if that makes sense to anyone other than me! 😉
Just got these commentaries yesterday! Kinda refreshing to have something more contemplative on TH-cam.
Do this for the entire Bible, please!!!!! :)
Oh boy. Just started but I’m already excited.
I hope you’ll post more of these on TH-cam! I love them. Videos like these really help encourage me to dive into the scriptures
Can you do a video on the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11? From what I understand the saints, doctors and Father's including Hilary, Jerome, Origen, Chrysostom, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Augustine, Aquinas, Bellarmine etc... All state the two witnesses of Revelation will in fact be the great Prophet Elijah and Enoch in person. What are your thoughts, can you do a video?
Loved the in-depth look at a verse that most Christians are pretty well acquainted with but sometimes gloss over.
Thanks for sharing this, Matt! This passage provided great comfort to me in a time when I was feeling particularly hopeless several years ago. It was a great help to have the divine reassurance that no matter how bad things can be or might seem, Christ has already overcome every bad thing.
Such a great reminder of “Christ’s peace in the midst” of strife and hardship. I tend to forget that. I will compartmentalize; stress here and Jesus over there. Life is much harder that way. I need to work on that. Thank you. And should TH-cam take you down, you’ll find another way, perhaps through email distribution like Matthew Kelly and Dynamic Catholic.
Thank you for providing a great meditation from Aquinas. Not sentimental, but convicting and calling us to conversion.
Matt, I'm from Chili. I follow almost all your videos, and the idea of a Bible Study based on Aquinas is very attractive and unique in TH-cam. I am very happy that you have done one.
I recommend you to do one on the commentary of the Paul's Letters, because the commentary of the Gospels are sometimes in certains masses online (for example in the Word on Fire masses). And in Latin America, the Aquinas' commentary of the Letters are impossible to found in the stores, so they are almost unknown here.
(Sorry for my english)
Matt, l really enjoyed Bible commentary and would welcome more! Thank you for sharing the book information as always looking to add great books to my collection. God bless your work! Thank you. Bill Wienecke
This is my first time to experience doing a biblè study (even if it's online at that!) and I'm happy it was with you because you made it as insightful and relatable as you can! I am just a new follower of you here in TH-cam, but watching your videos had a great impact in my walk towards eternity! Thank you for doing a bible study here in TH-cam and yes, I would love (and hopefully hundreds more of your subscribers as well) it if you could do a bible study every week may be??? God bless!
I really appreciated this bible study and really appreciated reading scripture from the viewpoint of Aquinas! It really was a great reminder to hear Christ say “be of good cheer for I have overcome the world”
So glad I came across this Bible study. I'm a SAHM of three little ones and I get through my days listening to your videos. I've been having a strong desire to read the Bible, but unsure where to start. I appreciate you taking the time to create these videos. Hope there's more to come! It's interesting to hear your take and St. Thomas Aquinas' take on this verse. I'm listening to this 2 weeks from now with the awareness of some sad news about a close friend so this is helpful. Thanks again.
(Thank you for providing this to us peasant non-patrons XD 💛💛)
Yes, definitely do more of these Matt. Perhaps you could start with a laid out plan so that people could follow a particular educational path e.g. the Gospel of John etc. Otherwise, random pieces are fine but an educational path may give people the notion that they have actually learnt something as most find it hard to read through the bible. This might be way to do it, perhaps with the Word on Fire bible in hand? Just a thought!
I would LOVE to see you do more of these!! Amazing!!
This is very nice. I used it for my evening prayer. Wish we had this everyday!
Loved this! Thank you. God bless you❤
Loved this. Would love to see more or possibly a series. Thanks Matt.
This was fantastic. I, too, hope that this becomes a regular thing.
Thanks for all that you do, Matt! What do you think of the ongoing protests?
I needed this message today Matt. The setup looks great. Look forward to more of these.
Where do I download the Matt Fradd audio Bible?
4:10 I just read that in the Confessions two days ago!
I loved this! Please keep doing them!
That was awesome, really enjoyed it
Go to subscribestar and bitchute
Yes please!! This was amazing!!
Do the whole book of St. John! Thanks!
Loved it! Please more.
Podcast thissss
Aquinas' take on desire is so much more profound, simple, and direct than every psychoanalyst's entire ouvre combined.
Something about pre-modern psychology just rings true to our lived experience in a way that modern theories do not. You should do a video just talking about desire mechanisms and psychology. Perhaps get a Thomistic Psychologist on the show to talk about how bad the post-structuralists are lol.
Great passage to resonate on very inspiring especially at this time for me love to see more vids
Really great! Thank you very much!
The lighting is great, great studio
More please.
Loved it, Matt!
Dont like the hair u look 60yrs old n balding
Cool, thanks.
Such incredible nonsense.
