Fear And Encouragement

August 10, 2014By

Sermon From
9th Sunday after Pentecost 2014
We are given tremendous encouragements in this Mass.  Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and it is that fear which we are taught today.  Even as the elect, we can still be lost, but God is faithful and will not abandon us.  Just as Christ wept over the city of Jerusalem, we feel sorrow for those who have turned away from God and will endure His just punishments.  We are all soldiers of Christ who must remain strong and continue to pray for our enemies.

Public Worship

August 3, 2014By

Sermon From
8th Sunday After Pentecost 2014
This week has the beautiful feasts of St. Dominic, Our Lady of the Snows, the Transfiguration and St. John Vianney.  Man by nature has the need to be religious and bind himself to that which is greater, namely God the Creator.  For Catholics this is enhanced as we are bound to God our Father.  For these reasons, and because of God’s own commandment, we must worship Him publicly and should not permit anything to prevent us from attending Mass on Sundays and Holydays of obligation.  Real men sacrifice all for family, and are willing to do the same for Almighty God.  St. Augustine said it famously, “Lord, you have made us for Yourself and our hearts are restless until they rest in Thee.”

The Blood of His Heart

July 1, 2014By

Sermon From The Feast Of The
Precious Blood 2014
We can see from the history of this feast day why is it so important for our times when the Church is under such great attacks.  The first gift of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is His Precious Blood.  The first reason for the creation of the human heart was for love of God.  His Blood is called precious because it is the key to our redemption and our enemies defeat.  It is the Blood of God.  Every last drop of Christ’s Blood was shed for us to clearly exemplify is love for mankind.

Definition Of Priestly Life

June 19, 2014By

Sermon From The Feast Of
Corpus Christi 2014
The priesthood was established with Christ’s words, “do this in memory of Me.”  The entire purpose of the priesthood is for the worship of God, through the Holy Eucharist.  This great gift of the Blessed Sacrament is envied by many who are outside the Church.  Catholics stand up in defense of the Eucharist because we know it is the true presence of God, and not simply symbolic.  It is a living memorial of the sacrifice of Christ on the cross.  We do not believe in the trans-signification of the modernists, but the dogma of transubstantiation.

The Unity and Trinity of God

June 15, 2014By

Trinity Sunday 2014
Today is also Father’s Day and we wish all the fathers a happy day.  This feast is considered the greatest in the Church because it celebrates the supernatural mystery about the Trinity’s own inner life which we could never even imagine without Revelation informing us of this secret of the Three Persons in One God.  The Old Testament gave indications of this mystery but it was reserved for the Second Person to reveal this personally when He walked among us.  Our Faith teaches this as a fundamental truth without which one cannot be saved.  Each Person of the Trinity has an internal mission and by attribution an external mission.  We are incorporated into this Trinitarian life by sanctifying grace and will see its fruition in heaven.

Giver Of Life

June 8, 2014By

Sermon On
Pentecost Sunday 2014
The Father is the Unbegotten, the Son is the Only-begotten, and the Holy Ghost is the unifying and personal Love which unites both the Father and the Son.  The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Unction, the Finger of the Right Hand of God, and the Giver of Life.  Today is the birthday of the Church and we see all of Christianity spring from the graces the Holy Ghost gives to the Church.  There is one Faith and there is one Lord.

God’s Omnipresence

June 1, 2014By

Sermon On The
Sunday after the Ascension 2014
We better appreciate the story of today’s Gospel with historical knowledge about the Sea of Galilee, the storms which were common there, and the location and culture of the Decapolis.  God is everywhere, not in the sense that the pantheists believe, but according to His immensity.  He is everywhere in three ways: by His knowledge, by His power, and by His essence.  When we speak of the Essence of God we must remember that the word “essence” is derived from the word “esse,” meaning “to be.”

Heaven Is Open

May 29, 2014By

Sermon From
Ascension 2014
Today we celebrate the only dogma that was proclaimed to us by the angels.  Jesus descended into Hell, meaning that He entered to “lower regions” to lead the souls of the just to their reward.  They were all brought to that real place which we call Heaven and all the souls of the just are celebrating there on this day.  This is a prediction of our coming resurrection.  Christ sits at the right hand of the Father by right and by conquest.

The Sole Means of Salvation

April 17, 2014By

Sermon On
Holy Thursday 2014
This day we celebrate the institution of the Mass, the Holy Eucharist, and the Priesthood – the only vocation created directly by God.  The saints tell us that it would be easier for us to exist without the Sun than without the Mass.  Our presence at the Mass shows God’s love for us, because He gives us the grace to come, and it allows us to show our love, fidelity, and loyalty to Him.  God has promised a great reward to those who stand with Him, and we know that it is only through the Mass that we will receive that reward.  Let us make reparation and proclaim our loyalty through the Sacrifice of the Altar.

The Summary of Holy Week

April 13, 2014By

Sermon From
Palm Sunday 2014
In the liturgy of Palm Sunday we are shown by Holy Mother Church the summary of the entire Holy Week.  Christ allowed Himself to be given regal praise this day, and we continue that celebration in the blessing and distribution of palms, which are a sign of victory.  The ancient practice of the Church in Jerusalem is repeated now in the triumphant procession.  Heaven is our goal, and we are called to follow Our Lord in all humility, so that we may have a part in that final procession when the souls of the just join their heavenly King.
