Does God Keep His Promises? - Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermon
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- Friends, God cares for the world in a way that confounds us. He is faithful to his promises, but they often don’t arrive as we expect them to. We see this in the readings today as God’s promise to David that his throne would last forever is fulfilled five hundred years later in Jesus. In Jesus and the Church-the true, promised house of David-we find our safety and our peace. And in the fulfillment of his promises, we see that the providential God is the Lord of history.

Thank you bishop
I am edified and give pause to the words.hearing the same words and yet hearing the words as if for the first time. I marvel at the Bishop when he goes back and refresh or relate the Old Testament to Our Redeemer. I really liked the phrase “ the long game “.
I am 81 years old I have been in it for the long game.and while I am home I am not lonely.
I watch ( TH-cam) and pray the Mass every day. I close my eyes and I see in my minds eyes
the Last Supper.🌹
May you know every blessing of this Holy Season, dear friend.
Grace be with you!
Thank you for a homily that reminds me that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are in control. The world has hope. God Bless
Thank you Bishop. Every sermon is a wonderful lesson for me. ❤🙏
Word.
One of your best ...thank you, Bishop
How I wish I could get my Protestant friends in Christ to listen to such great wisdom! How I wish that they would understand and believe that God has been faithful in preserving His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church till the end of the age! How I wish I could get them to believe that my Savior has remarkable organizational skills! St. John XXIII called this "the wisdom of the ages." The wise virgins listen while the foolish ones joke around.
This is absolutely magnificent: Don't build a house for Me, I will build a house for you! God bless you, bishop Barron for your faithfulness in telling us the words of the Lord! I mean the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. You are set apart and God works in you to reveal the rhema, the epistemological and semantical beauty of His written word. The Eucharist is such an example...
I so needed this this morning. My heart has been aching for restoration in a family relationship and I had fallen into despair. Thank you for reminding me that the "Lord plays a subtle and long game." This helps me have hope and trust in the Lord's plan. Thank you.
Families are complicated.
Rejoice and have Hope.
My family has disintegrated. It’s so sad. Others have moved on (or so they say) but I can’t seem to. Heartbreaking especially during the holidays. My prayers go unanswered but now I see it can’t be on my timeline.
I am in the same boat as you. God's will be done.
He often moves in the 11th hour. Be patient and wait on the Lord. He will not forsake you.

so true!
So helpful. Thank you
"God plays a subtle and long game" So true.
Amen💑😍🌹💐👋!God bless to you.Amen💑🙇🙍👦🙌🙆👵🙅👋!
God is playing 12D Chess
Amazing knowledge
"Your house and your kingdom will endure before Me forever, and your throne will be established forever." -2 Samuel 7:16 "Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away." -Matthew 24:35
Jesus was from the line of David - many people were looking for a new Davidic King to make Israel great again, but God's plan was to fulfill the promise through Abraham - to bless all nations through him.
Amen💜💜💝💜
Thank you Bishop Baron I did indeed enjoy it and will share it.
I pray to say yes if the Lord calls me.
Hello and greetings Kevin, a Happy and Holy Christmas to you and yours. AMEN! He is calling you, he calls us all to different vocations, all founded in LOVE. Pray fastidiously for the work he wants YOU within its remit, to accomplish. We are all made for great things, Holy things, so may poor souls don't know or understand this.. AVE MARIA! Shalom.
The Lord o ready call you you have to answer to it IS UP TO YOU
Thank God "I am a daughter of the Church" _ the House of David where God pleases to dwell. Thank you Bishop Barron for reminding me. May God reward you & that very reward be His very Self. God bless you!

One of your best homilies. The historical connection between old and New Testament is a great help in understanding the evolution of Gods plan to the importance of Jesus birth and its meaning of fulfillment of the plan. Hard to comprehend why it took so long, particularly in our present culture of immediate response and expected fulfillment. If God didn’t want a temple built by David why are we building temples (churches and cathedrals) today to honor him? Whilst those governing those temples seem to be unable to govern themselves let alone their flock who are supposed to BE the church, people true to Christ’s word for living their lives in enactment of his word such as best we can? Thanks for all you do to try to make some sense of these many paradoxes. Hopes for a Blessed Christmas and Covid free 2021.
Thank you Professor! Thank you Bishop Barron. You make everything so easy and fun to learn. God is truly our lover, he is the best lover ever because he knows how to make us yearn for Him. We should never question his Faithfulness though. When the time is right, he always gives us what we need. Thank you Jesus!
Jesus is the son of God, who is able to do supernatural things . He is not a philosopher nor an ordinary man. World has experienced it recently.
Thank you, dear Bishop, for reminding us that the Church Which Is His Body will stand forever. Things with the church look a bit shaky at times !
I have been duped by my lack of understanding of God's will and how he works.His Providence and Grace are good enough for me. Cannot say I now understand but am renewed with his Promise of Salvation thru Christ's Redemption for my son's. Oh Father God please bring me to your hearts everlasting Love.Amen.

Hi ,if you want to know more about the Catholic Church Teachings, I suggest you watch Fr Chris Alar, from the Divine Mercy channel. He has a great series called : Explaining the Faith. Fr Chris, has all the answers to what people don't understand, gives straight answers ,regarding our Faith and the Protestant teachings as well ! God bless .
Obrigado pela homilia
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ 🙏 Mother Mary Pray For Us 🙏Abba Father Bless us and we Adore You 🙏Holy Spirit Guide us and direct our paths 🙏
Wow this was so deep! Thank you so much Bishop Barron for this wonderful Sunday sermon. I am new to the Catholic church and was taught that the Old Testament prepares for the New Testament and the New Testament fulfills the Old. The two shed light on each other and this was a perfect example. God Bless
Bishop Barron, you never cease to inspire me with your words, and wisdom. I feel closer to God and His Angels as I ever have because of your guidance.. Thank you, thank you.
@Franci Edgerly
Amen 🙏💖 I agree.
That's was so beautiful of you to say about the Bishop. 🙏🌹😊✨
Love this!
This is one of the most enlightening and most important homilies I've heard. Thank you, Bishop Barron.
Grateful for your homily bringing alive the Word of God to us today. A Joyful Christmas and a Hopeful New Year to Bishop Robert Barron!
Shalom, Sr. Brigid, OP
Are you doing ok sister miss seeing you! Merry Christmas and Frances Opperman
So clear about the House of David. Thank you for your clarity Bishop.
Another great sermon, full of rich explanations of historical significance. God Bless you, Bishop Bob!
Dear Bishop Barron, Your excellency , I find really uplifting this exegetical walktrhough. Thank you for reminding us that, yes , God does keep his promises . God bless you
Excellent sermon Bishop - really nailed this one and raised some points I did not know!
That was just beautiful. Bishop Barron, I always feel like you are talking to Me. That I am blessed with a spiritual advisor. Your words give me direction. Thank you and God Bless you this week.
O Come Holy Spirit, Grant us Faith, Hope and Love. Ps 89:2, Lk 1:38
“He was both the true and chaste spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the foster-father of the Word Incarnate. For these two reasons, St Joseph shines among all mankind and approaches nearer than any other saint to the holiness of the Mother of God.” - Pope Leo XIII
😇 St. Joseph hear our prayers
Thank you for your beautiful Sunday sermon Bishop Barron. May GOD bless you ➕ ❤ 🌷
Thank you, Bishop. You just weaved beautiful scenery using today's readings and helped us see these events in perspective. Just beautiful!
Yes it was excellent. Thank you Bishop Barron and a very happy and holy Christmas to you and the team!
I love this: " God plays a subtle and long game." He keeps us waiting, but He keeps His promises. I believe He does this because He wants to make us pure in heart. Thank you Bishop.
❤️🔥
I am sub'd and always talk about your channel to others so they join. I read your daily gospels, get them sent every day, which is great! Thank you!
With everyone talking about crisis in the Church, I really needed to hear this. Very inspired video.
This explanation is so rich and beautiful, it makes me wonder why the Jewish people don't embrace Jesus as the promise God gave them and they waited for so faithfully
Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ, with the help of mama Mary and also our mother cover us with your powerful mantle of Protection helf us to protect with this pandemic and also with the help of the Holy spirit one God forever and ever: Amen
Glory be to lord Jesus Christ and his eternal church, the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Wow! Excellent! Thank you, Bishop Barron!
Thank you, Bishop Barron! As usual, this was a message that I needed today. Pax and blessings!
Thank you Bishop Barron for the beautiful , inspiring and brilliantly delivered homily.May God bless you.
For those whose hearts are closed to the Good News found in scriptures...we pray to the Lord. I am thinking of those who just press the "thumbs down" probably before even listening, because they have hate in their heart for the messenger. I''m thankful for the articulation of the heart of God in this beautiful message.....🙏
Perfect!!
Glad to see you speaking, again, Bishop. It's much nicer to see you as you speak, to see anyone speak live.
Beautiful words on the readings for today. Such wonderful words of hope. Merry Christmas Bishop Barron. And thank you for all you do.
“Tear down this Temple and in three days I’ll put it back together.” Maybe this line too could be added to this sermon. Words spoken by God himself in Jesus Christ. The fulfillment of the prophesy.
Thank you Bishop Barron, and a Merry and Blessed Christmas to you!
Thanks again Bishop Barron for this wonderful message of hope and Gods promise ...
Good morning Bishop May God continue to bless you abundantly, please keep us in your prayers Amen 🙏
You are teaching me the Old Testament and salvation history. Thank you.
Thank you Bishop Barron for your informative and encouraging homily! God Bless you! God works in ways beyond comprehension and loves us unconditionally!
Thank you your excellency. Brilliant and so insightful, so inspiring. AVE MARIA! Shalom.
Peace be with you Bishop Barron.
I love your homilies.
I want to give a short version of my testimony.
About me:
I was away from our beloved church for a long time.
I missed my confirmation at the age of 15 and since then I've been living with a deep brokeness that I didn't understand the reason for, which was basically exactly that, the missing of the confirmation. I have, in different ways, persecuted our God given church (family) and I am very sorry for that.
About one year ago I've repented in joy and pain. The 15th of July this year 2020 I was confirmed, I came home.
So I have come home to Rome, thanks to Jesus Christ whom Alone gives us all we need for eternal life through His one and holy and apostolic church (mystical body).
Thank you to all you Catholics reading this for your prayers of the conversion of sinners. Laymen and cleargy alike, rich and poor, smart and dumb, ugly and pretty, righteous and unrighteous.
Your brother in Christ,
Sincerely,
Martin 'Paulus' Michael Nihlén
Sweden, Skåne, Lund
Prayers for you Bishop ❤️ thanking jesus for you.
Wow! What a perceptual shift this homily is based on and calls for: From a short-term emotional response to an undemanding newborn smiling in a cute straw-laden crib to a mature and free commitment to Christfull living with no attachement to a feel-good outcome possibly experienced in my own lifetime. I may have just got a glimpse of the historical significance of Incarnation.
Lévis Shalom
Thank you Bishop Barron. May you have a Blessed Christmas!
Thank you bishop for your homily! Christ the Lord and his mystical body help us to understand little by little up to the end of this ninth day novena, to enlighten us about our Lord Jesus christ! But I know that by your grace on this coming Christmas day that what ever I expected to receive for Jesus will be at hand.. Amen🙏🙏🙏
Jesus Christ is the church!!! Amen!!!! God bless you Bishop.
Good morning y’all let’s get this bread today 😤✝️🤙🥶🙏
I love the ultra casual way priests always refer to Nazareth when transitioning from an Old Testament story to its fulfillment in the New Testament. Good stuff!
Thank you Bishop Barron to help me understand the Gospel more clearly. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
No matters what you Talk Bishop Barron! God bless you for ever! 😇😇😇👼🍼☄️🔥💎💗💗💗 Thank you Mommy Mary! Thank you Jesús Christ!
When I was young, my father was a troubled man and not there for me. Please pray with me that the children of today can find Bishop Barron when they need guidance and that they can see the beauty that we might see. They're learning terrible things from the world around them, they're being indoctrinated with Marxist ideologies and post-modernism at school. Please pray for the kids and also maybe point them to Jordan Peterson. 😊
Superb explanation! The history of what the Catholic church is! Very Profound and real. God Bless you Bishop Baron for explaining and remind us!
Thank you. I believe in the grace of the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Some think grace is in everything?
Yes, we are swimming in a sea of grace
The house & lineage of King David prevails through the church
Thanks Bishop B. 🤗
Well Done. Well done indeed. Thanks.
Good words today....on fire they are..
Excellent and enlightening sermon.
Thank you, Bishop Barron. I have been having trouble getting in the Christmas spirit this year and that homily was a wonderful corrective. Peace Be With You!
Yes, indeed the prophets helped in keeping that promise of a house that would last forever alive, "He is from everlasting to everlasting" (Sir 42:21).
Thank you Bishop, I follow you from Italy!!
God bless 🙏❤️🇨🇦
Thanks Bishop, always the way to start the day.
Amen amen thanks to be god to the most high💓💓💓🕎💓✡💓🕎💓
Brilliant

Sweet 🌼
Blessings from 🇦🇪( UAE) 🌷🌷🌷
Amen.
Jesus I Trust In You
A wonderful insight, your Grace.
A scriptural chapter illustrated and described so well. Thank you, Bishop.
Merry X'mas Bishop Barron. I knew the throne of David is the mystical body of christ which is the church. Thank you for claridying and emphasizing it. My sunday will not be complete without your homily.
Thanks, Bishop Barron!! Last night at Mass I was trying to figure out what 2 Samuel 7 has to do with Gabriel appearing to Mary! You have explained it so beautifully!! But just a suggestion: don't use words like "perdure" in your homilies. The best word is most often the simplest.
I thank you for another inspiring message. The phrase hopeful anticipation really touched me as I try to live with hole and joy believing that God does keep His promised. I wish you a Blessed Christmas
Sweet and kind.
AMEN!
Impresionante. Oía música mientras le escuchaba hablar.
In Isaiah's last days, with Assyria at the gates, his life ending and all of Judah rejecting his message, he recounts the hope of Job, " Bind up [my] testimony, seal the teaching among my disciples. I will wait for the Lord, who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob, and I will hope in him." Is 8:16
The genealogy in Matthew’s gospel shows a continuous line.
Bishop Barron, I love your Masses, homilies and other teachings, but does this one mean I have to wait nearly a thousand years for God to answer my prayers for finding my husband a job, healing our marriage, etc.? God’s timing seems very slow indeed, and His answer is often worse than the situation we were praying about in the first place. This hits very close to home and I’m trying hard to understand. May God continue to bless you and your work.
Question: the Gospel of Matthew give us the genealogy of Jesus from King David so how did it end or we talking about the the kingship lineage? Clarification please
Wonderful homily. Mind. Blown.
The Roman Empire lasted for more than 1200 years (753 BC - 476 AD). It ended with the fall of Rome. The Catholic Church began since Peter was established by Christ as the head of his Church with these words -“And I say also to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”- in 28 AD. The Church will be 2000 years old in 2028.
No human institution has lasted as much as the Church, because the Catholic Chuch is not an entirely human institution, it is a divine-human institution. All human institutions have an end. It is the nature of human things and creations
I think there is only one reason why the Church will last until Jesus comes again, no matter how long it takes: His Word.
He said:
“Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away”.
Hinduism is much older than Christianity. Most scholars believe Hinduism started somewhere between 2300 B.C. and 1500 B.C. in the Indus Valley, near modern-day Pakistan.
@@markgreen4612 Mark. I am talking about the future, not the past.
Hinduism might be the oldest religion, but it is not a proper institution.
@@cribedadabecri5764 How could you possibly know that Catholicism will last longer into the future than Hinduism? Why do you say that Hinduism is "not a proper institution"?
@@markgreen4612 i have more chance than you to be right bases on Christ words.
¿Who is the head of the hinduism institution?
