  • Friends, Christians often speak of “having a personal relationship with Christ” or “knowing Jesus personally,” but what does this actually mean? Is it possible? How do we go beyond knowing about Christ to truly knowing him? That’s what Brandon Vogt and I discuss on today’s “Word on Fire Show.”
    A listener considering conversion to Catholicism asks, how do I go about looking for a parish?

      Be it known: 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.

      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_YAHwe do not worship Mary. That would be the heresy of idolatry condemned an uncountable number of times by the Church. Praying to her and other saints is merely communication, we’re asking them to pray for us in the same way that you would ask your friend to pray for you.

    I'm a practicing cradle Catholic. I never thought my faith could be stronger until the last 6 months of my sister's life as I cared for her 24-7 with brain cancer. I KNOW the Lord was with me. I felt his presence strongly. I called on Him often as she could do nothing herself. I was able to carry her only by the Grace of God. I actually felt him in our trials and Know Christ conquered death on the cross and she is with Him now. All praise & Thanksgiving to God

      God's special blessings for what you did for your sister. I'm now 70, but an only who lost both parents to cancer. I did not have the burden you did, so I can only sympathize with you. But God grants a special grace, I believe, to caregivers such as yourself. In Christ and with his love.

    When my father had dementia and was praying aloud with complete unawareness of mom and I in the room, it became evident that he had such closeness to the Lord that he spoke as I would never dare to. Instead of praying for his health which had taken a sudden, sharp turn, his prayer was asking, pleading with the Lord to, "...give the people work. You have done it before...so do it!" I thought at that moment how like a child he spoke to God. I will never forget it.

    I encounter Jesus personally in the sacraments, including adoration, but I also know the Trinity lives inside of me and I speak with Him throughout the day as a friend and I know He hears me. I was only 7 when i began speaking woth Mother Mary heart to heart and she has led me into a personal relationship with her Son. This love from encountering Jesus daily, moment by moment, personally and knowing Presence with me has led to a deep love for Him! Jesus said we must come to Him as a child, don't overcomplicate it ...just speak with Him heart to heart. Before the Blessed Sacrament is wonderful, but He is with you even now ❤

      Agree.. read 33 Days to Morning Glory by Michael E. Gaitley in knowing , hearing Jesus, etc. Either through our thoughts , from other events, through our prayers , through our a activities . etc. Goals to become closer to Him. Etc. In church sitting in His presence, adorations, in quiet moments of looking over our events. To become closer, to feel His presence. Mother Theresa, St Pope John Paul, st Louis DeMontfort, St Maximiian Kobi, had strong devotion to Jesus loves and He spoke to hem spiritually and so all of us. Through our spirit we can have a personal connection relationship. ❤with our Saviour.. when I am worried so uncertain about my
      Circumstances, cross so to speak, He makes everything right. I love Him. We are soo fortunate that He is with us.

    Thank you Bishop for your words. Last Saturday I went to confession after having been away for three months. Although I was not drowning in deep sin, when I left the confessional I experienced such joy that I could only compare it with the joy of receiving Christ in the Eucharist. I realized then that Jesus is with me in both sacraments, perhaps more fully in one than in the other, but He is there.

    A heartfelt thank you Bishop Barron. I grew up a Protestant, became and agnostic/atheist in my 20's, and returned to a belief in God in my 40's. The things I witnessed during the last few years removed all doubt of the authenticity and the wonder of our God, of His Son and Holy Spirit. It came after I prayed for faith, just any faith at all. I wanted what I didn't have. I used to think I couldn't reach out, pray, try to yearn for Christ if I had doubts at all. I pushed against disbelief, and prayed that God would melt away my cynicism and jadedness. To make a long story short, He did indeed, praise be to Christ our Lord. You have been like a beacon to believers, young and old, new and seasoned alike. I am considering a conversion to Catholicism. Please know that people like me, newly redeemed, long for the clarity and unwavering belief that the Catholic Church and its traditions represent, what it was and is, not what it can become to be more accommodating and relevant in the modern age. God Bless you Sir, continue to be that representative of Christ. Shine in clear, loving, and steadfast opposition to this present age.

      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.

    I have watched this twice. Makes sense. Getting to know Jesus personally is easy for the believer. Attending mass, saying the traditional rosary (Bishop's own impeccable recitations on youtube)and these days virtual adoration helps for the house bound. Lots of little chants can be used. eg Jesus I trust in you (end summary of divine mercy chaplet), Into your hands Lord, I commend my spirit, friendly conversations with Jesus: What do you think Jesus, I should do here? I leave this problem to you to sort out for me, Come holy spirit and fill thy faithful with the power of love, etc, etc.

    “Christianity is unique!” By Bishop Barron, yes, indeed, it has no parallel anywhere because Jesus is the whole Body and Blood of Christianity 🙏
    Well, talking about how Jesus looks like, my all time favorite and beloved picture of Jesus is that beautiful Image from the Sacred Heart Fathers Religious Community! Looking at that Image, Jesus eyes follow you in every direction (my family calls the Image as the Eyes of Christ) I always smile when looking up at that big framed picture while I pray because Jesus looks so beautiful, so loving, and so real to me, and, always looking straight at me! ♥️

      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.*

Because you are a bishop, I always feel very honored when you appear in my dream. And as once, Jesus has told me to be his friend by calling my name Sabina which came out of the Holy Cross, Jesus has been my friend ever since. According to what St. Therese de lisieux has said, it's because Jesus wants to. I love Jesus! Wish me a luck bishop that I have started to read The Summa Theologica.

    Ah you hit on it - the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Just as every relationship is unique, our relationship to the Lord for each of us is unique, because it is about the inner life of Love that the Holy Spirit provides for us with Jesus. When He says He will not leave us orphans, the Holy Spirit is His gift to us make 'a personal' relationship possible. That is one reason why the sacrament of Confirmation is so significant ,and how as you say the mystical body of Jesus in the Church opens this mystery for us. Thank you Bishop Barron for the blessings you provide through these talks .

    Wow, your last caller is from Israel. I hope he has pushed trhough with his plans. I wonder how he felt right now that he has moved to another country. What's happening now in Israel must have a big impact on his faith right now. God always has His special way of revealing Himself to each of us. Jesus is God's very perfect revelation of Himself. Just like what Mother Theresa said: Jesus is the solution to all the problems in this world . And what is happening in the world right now, knowing Jesus personally, we can help spread LOVE faster than violence.

    Bishop I would agree with you that JESUS invites us to a personal relationship with him through HIS mystical body. You have also taught us before that our GOD is THE ONE WHO COMES IN SEARCH OF US NOT THAT WE SEARCH GOD, but we can respond to HIM. IF our GOD IS TRINITY and He will perfect our FAITH IN HIM through the mystical body, because if there is no Communion then there is no relationship.

    I like the bishop's answer about guys developing the relationship. The stock "personal relationship with Jesus" ispretty much inconceivable at face value. Without guidance, it would be easier to develop a personal relationship with the answering machine at CVS.

    This was truly fantastic bishop . Though I am 61 and have always been Catholic , I have learned so much from your sermon. I have some mental health issues and times feel lost. I question how I pray , I question what to pray and at times I feel a big void between me and the Lord ! At times I feel that he does not love me . Maybe it’s me , maybe I don’t allow the Lord to love me. Help ! Can you teach me how to pray !

    Not servants, friends. What a gift, His friendship. Perhaps the sacraments can be viewed as quality time with that Friend. The friendship is always there, but it needs to be celebrated, lived, fed, cherished, 'worked at' if you like. The sacraments as the labour of love/friendship. Thanks for an excellent talk, will be sure to use this content in class.

    I agree with your advice to David, Bishop. A healthy church has young pple, the gospel is preached by a minister rightly dividing the Word of truth and holy sacrament is given .

    During the start of "wokism", the Catholic Church was very much on board with it. At least here in the diocese of San Bernardino.
    I now understand the pain being revealed by some of our parish members but through that time of confusion the Protestant church was very much there for me and my family.
    I'm asking @bishopbarron to please 🙏 shut down the attacks on the Protestant church coming from these outside institutes.
    Let's make this about Jesus and move forward together.
    God Bless.

    God bless you both ! Particularly interesting questions in this episode, and very insightful answers as always. How do you picture someone whom you know only by His voice (for example, via phone) ? Something similar, I think, is in play with Jesus, because we do know His words and, in a sense, His voice.

    I think of St Teresa of Calcutta, she and the sisters first would start their day with Adoration. Adoration is huge in having a relationship with Our Lord.

    I was very disappointed at the way our Church leaders responded to the government's edicts during the pandemic, most especially the closing of our churches and suspending of Masses. If we truly believe in the real presence of Christ, body-blood-soul and divinity, how do we reconcile that with preventing the faithful from coming before the Tabernacle during our moment of most need (the Pandemic). I think we lost the opportunity to show the world that we do in fact believe in the real presence.

    If it’s at all possible that the listener who asked the question about a parish in Nashville sees this response , I’d suggest St. Ann Catholic Church in West Nashville. Sacramental roots, orthodoxed and reverence throughout, along with a humble and warm parish family.
