Sanctifying the World: Bishop Barron’s University of St. Thomas Homily

Friends, join me in praying for the graduates of the University of St. Thomas in Houston, where I had the great privilege of preaching at their baccalaureate Mass. We must remember that the primary purpose of a Catholic university is evangelization, the proclamation of the lordship of Jesus Christ. Therefore, education must equip and form graduates to sanctify the world, so that the light of Christ can be brought into workplaces, classrooms, and trades.

    And hopefully a few Catholic young men met a nice Catholic young woman and look forward to starting another generation of Catholics. Young men can go to seminary, young women can go into convents. We need to bring our young people together for marriage as well as for education. Most people have difficulty remaining chaste and should choose a partner if their vocation is the married life. Careers are important, but jobs come and go, but your spouse should be by your side for the journey.

Why this movement to darken the Church again with Latin,head covering of women,Eucharist only given on the tongue, I am 82 years old, I lived through that shaded time. I am grateful for the Light,the open windows, the vernacular, the charge of all to evangelize .🌹

    To be honest, I didn't hear the music till I read this Comment. That's me of course. Probably the editors who got the video ready for upload thought of some background music to match Bishop Barron's WORDS, literally ON FIRE in this talk to Students at a University. I would think they have done a good job. Bishop's words are superclear.

    The council is when the church went “woke”. It wanted to shake off it traditions and appeal to young boomers of the time like me, and who really didn’t heed the call. Totally disregarding it’s base, the true catholics like my parents and their generation. It tore down the high alters, told them that elements of the church that they fervently adhered to, we now passé. The beauty of the latin mass was to be replaced by drums and guitars. Dumb down the Mystical Christ.

I guess their own parents or grandparents would easily fit into your chronological period. Let's see if there'll be some takers for your kind of understanding. BTW are you representing some Latin Mass advocates here? There have been lines of them already.

    PAUL’s GOSPEL SIMPLY REQUIRES YOU TO PLACE ALL OF YOUR FAITH IN… The Death, Burial & Resurrection Of Jesus Christ, And The Blood He Shed On The Cross For Your Salvation Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that… CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS according to the scriptures; and that he was BURIED, and that he ROSE AGAIN the third day according to the scriptures: (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) ANYONE CAN BE SAVED BY HEARING, BELIEVING & TRUSTING THE GOSPEL. …that the promise by FAITH of Jesus Christ might be given to them that BELIEVE. (Galatians 3:22) …to them which should hereafter BELIEVE on him to life everlasting. (1 Timothy 1:16) …to whom it shall be imputed, if we BELIEVE on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification. (Romans 4:24-25) For by grace are ye saved through FAITH; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: (Ephesians 2:8) In whom ye also TRUSTED, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye BELIEVED, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise. (Ephesians 1:13) Even the righteousness of God which is by FAITH of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that BELIEVE: for there is no difference: (Romans 3:22) But to him that worketh not, but BELIEVETH on him that justifieth the ungodly, his FAITH is counted for righteousness. (Romans 4:5) For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that BELIEVETH; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. (Romans 1:16) For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that BELIEVE. (1 Corinthians 1:21) Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the FAITH of Jesus Christ, even we have BELIEVED in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. (Galatians 2:16) Please share the gospel with as many people as you can.
