The Fruit of the Spirit - Bishop Barron's Sunday Sermon

Video Overview & Insights

Friends, this is the great feast of Pentecost, the feast of the Holy Spirit. In the First Reading, the Spirit manifests himself as a strong driving wind, and while you can’t see the wind directly, you can see its effects. The text I want to reflect on today is not in the readings but is one of my favorites: Galatians 5:22–26, when St. Paul talks about “the fruit of the Spirit.” And it’s precisely to this same point: What are the signs that the Holy Spirit is operative in us?

This dude is a great teacher.

i’m so glad you spoke about the problem with and hook up in our society. People practically laugh when someone chooses to have sex for love.

— @lizz9840

This is worth revisiting. Truly replacing self focus with God focus produces beautiful fruit. The Holy Spirit also makes us aware of the sinful nature of things we used to think had nothing to do with sin. I have issues with getting upset when I am not winning a game with loved ones, and I recently was struck with that as a sign that I was not letting the Holy Spirit guide me in all things. Pray that our hearts are open and that we may rejoice in the good for others always.

I was raised Catholic then became Protestant later in life. I’m thinking Catholic again. I love their teaching and their loyalty to God.
I feel like I’m coming home when I listen to Catholic preaching.
Thank you Bishop for showing God’s love to His creation. ❤

Hi Bishop, I am a huge fan of yours, I’ve been watching you almost every day. I always wanted that some friends could join me and hear your voice, but they don’t understand English.I saw that you have the the Siddhi of translation to another languages, but not Portuguese, and I think we are the bigger catholic nation in the world, do you think it is possible to translate your preaching to our language?

Preaching like this is why I love the RC church. Many churches seem more interested in doing social work than feeding faith. Social work is good and important. But it is secondary to building faith.

God the Creator loves His creatures, and therefore respects them, and offers them happiness through and in serving Him. In our sincere acceptance, we can be granted the joy of serving only God, the One and Triune, Triune and One



i replied: "Here I am, send me."



in my opinion, accepting to proclaim the Glory of All-Glory, the Goodness of All-Goodness, and the Happiness of All-Happiness, was the great test and the great joy of our beloved prophet Isaiah, oracle of the Lord, during his earthly life.





any task, work, or profession, when performed worthily with the required honesty, the simpler the task, the greater it can be presented thanks to blessed Humility, as the noble shepherd boy David, king before God, describes to us.



in my opinion, we learn from everything, if we know how to learn from everything, being a shepherd of sheep, and while one is a shepherd of sheep, one can be a king before God the Creator.



thus, that time that requires our own effort, offered with respect and love to God, becomes the best offering, since thanks to Humility during that process, we become a worthy offering sought after. Bliss is in the offerer, and it is the state of the offerer himself, endowed with precious Humility to want to be better every day, the worthy offering that God the Creator seeks for His little children on earth.



too many kings before God throughout history, have succumbed to temptation when they have had to be, being tested as, kings before others.





The Perfect King, God Christ, the Son of the Most High, is the Worthy Offering, the Perfect Lamb for the atonement of our own defeat and the edenic curse that distorted us as Worthy little children.



colliding with the evil carried out in temptation by the fallen wretch and his dead slaves, is proper to the Truth in His Justice, the Word come down from Heaven Itself. i believe that each of us freely decides whom we serve.



for the first time, the first followers of the Word and all those who will come until the end of the time of trial for souls will finally present a true battle. Those who gain Holiness and remain in It will be our Humble and Courageous generals, our soldier-kings in the daily battle to safeguard and save our souls under the protection of God Christ.

I woke very predawn, got my Catholic Bible which includes my favorite book WISDOM, the readings that taught me basic truths I needed as a young elementary school child orphaned, stolen by Golden Dawn satanist couple, then renamed alias age 2 Ann Joyce. Excellent FBI director Mueller questioned why were so many obvious rich people caught shooting at a normal woman. FBI sued u s government and organized and asked me risk my life to help FBI by letting FBI put my name on lawsuit: courts worldwide required someone with " legal standing" (proven gravely hurt). FBI won lawsuit and was allowed to see classified file my REAL name courts returned on LexisNexis Legal computer HRH Ana-Maria Romanov-Hanover Von Habsburg. Islamic clerics, originally, had a fatwa death order against me. I don't know why. Dreams kept telling clerics (they layer said all heard)," Do not kill Hannah.". Clerics said they ordered men to hack u s government computers, search. They found my names Ann Joyce a.k.a Hannah, I am called by many Muslim men who originally came yelling, blaming me for wars by my government. I carried my giant bible and my arabic-English Quran. I opened my Quran as Muslim men angry yelled at me I'd ask," Men of Islam, will you teach me Quran?". Instantly peaceful, crowds of muslim men circled me as one man read aloud 17 verse 104 and 17 verse 55. Peace was advocated, we parted friends. Clerics said they tested my blood (stolen genetics by someone 1987 being sold in N.J) I am bloodline proven Prophet Muhammed and wife Maria "prisoner captured in Rome Italy of high birth noble bloodline". You reach my spirit, encouraging me. Islamic clerics asked me which Bible should be allowed read in mosques worldwide. I quickly said the Catholic Bible. Because it contains all the books in KJV...plus book Wisdom and historical books necessary for my Muslim peoples to study deeply. Hu Jintao wisely decided to open every school of Confuscius of China...after China saw precise prophecy of my impending murder of me approaching in an exact number of days. China watched, and killers were caught by FBI. The complete works of confuscious of China includes the birth of son of heaven correctly foretold -550(?) years before Christ's birth. Honour to China. My bloodline proven Lee (Li) Wencheng wife 2 of Tibet King Songsten Gampo. Catholic Churches reopened under kindly Hu Jintao. I will begin listening to your wisdom and typing less. If Heaven wants me rescued from oppression? Heaven will do so. Love and respect to You excellent Father Barron.

the greatest thing a soul can do for itself is to save itself in God Christ.

may we respect the sincere Love for all souls, God Christ, lest we make ourselves, even in the smallest way, worthy of that sincere Love.

may our generation, too many foolish, proud, and therefore unhappy, respect the sacred and admire the Holy.

may God Christ help those who harbor His Goodness in them, the Saints, and especially Saint Mary, because they endure us and love us.

may God Paraclete find many more and many better vessels, healthy, whole, and clean, to guide us to those most in need: those captives in the infamy that tempts us during this brief time.

may the souls who dwell in the sacred Heart of God Christ guide us to Him.

may our generation of exiles, too many who have gone astray, allow ourselves to be guided by the Wisdom of the Righteous

let us ask forgiveness from God the Creator for the scant respect and lack of love we show to the All-Goodness, to His Most High Son, who won a better Covenant for us all, and too few are worthy of Him.

may the valiant Apostle James evangelize once again this land of barren and dead faith, into which too many of us have become.

Thank you Bishop! I'd love a longer video on emotions, how to orient them towards virtue. Some sensitive people, like me, they try to keep peace but feel confused when they have strong emotions. I'm not sure how to explain this clearly, so I'll write some example questions, painful questions, that may come up in such people's minds. "I hear people cussing at the name of God and I feel angry, what do I do?"
"I am jealous of my absent husband, how should I behave?" "My child hurt me intentionally: what do I do?"
In today's first world, there's a sugar-coated version of reality where all negative emotions are bad and conflict should be avoided. Where feeling pain and love towards something or someone is difficult to talk about and understand. Ancient Christian writers seem to have been SO sharp in analysing the human heart, but they need a bit of a bridge to reach the clueless modern Christian of the modern, post Vatican II era, where the vocabulary itself is different and culture has radically changed.

Whenever I tried to practice some these 9 signs of holy spirit in my own way, I always ended up being on the extrem opposite side. This sermon of beloved bishop, really do make good sense of my experience.😊

thank you 🙏 for motivating me to search for the fruit of the Holy Spirit. I trying to be mindful on how I look and act to things. It’s hard but my guardian angel always elbows me when I don’t see the obvious, keeping me on my toes.

This is an incredibly good teaching. Truly, the takeaway for me that underscores everything; willing the good of another. This is charity. It is something to ask oneself in any given situation; Am I willing the good of another? Thank you!

"In those days, a great number believed and turned to the Lord."



having arrived at this day, i believe that trying to live, or live, around or among sincere Christians is one of the best objective decisions that can be made, i believe that the hardness, bitterness, and ingratitude of people diminishes considerably, and crime in that place decreases enormously.



perhaps we will come to understand the importance of offering a certain amount of fasting, sowing Holy decisions by overcoming temptation, praying, and celebrating the Sacraments with respect, to gain in Love. in my opinion, because of where i came from and what i have experienced, i believe that all of this makes us much better people.






to teach, we must comply, and the better we comply, the better we teach.



in my opinion, in the lives of the Best of the Best among us, the Saints, those who live in respect and Love for the Law, small living temples of God the Paraclete, we find the best decisions when faced with problems similar or analogous to those we all face every day, since they are different circumstances and times, but the same temptation.



i believe that we must build ourselves in a Humble king, to teach with greater courage



we must understand what it's made of, how heavy it is at times, how much it hurts for the love of others, who will admire you and who will mock you, how much it costs to earn the Crown we should seek to earn here.

As I listen to this otherwise beautiful talk about the «fruits of the Holy Spirit», I note that the USA and Israel are now deliberately starving hundreds of thousands of Gaza children; by allowing in only a trickle of aid. What a cruel mockery of the the Holy Spirit and callous rejection of His fruits! Nicholas Newman Montreal
