Get Behind Me Satan: When Worldly Thinking Betrays Christ

About this sermon

Are you truly following Christ—or just blending into the world? In this powerful Catholic reflection, we dive deep into Christ’s challenging words: “Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.” This message is not symbolic—it is a call to radical transformation. Too many Christians today avoid the Cross. We seek comfort, approval, and acceptance from the world. But as this sermon explains, worldly thinking is not neutral—it is dangerous. Even Saint Peter, the first Pope, was rebuked by Christ for thinking “as man does” instead of as God does. In this talk, you’ll discover: Why Jesus calls us to suffering and self-denial How modern culture trains us to be ashamed of Christ The hidden influence of worldly thinking in your spiritual life Why rejection is often a sign you are following Christ correctly The true meaning of “losing your life to save it” St. Augustine’s teaching on using vs. enjoying created goods This is not a message of despair—it is a message of eternal joy. The Cross is not the end. It is the path to victory. 📿 If you want to grow in holiness, stop living for the approval of the world—and start living for Christ. 🙏 Glory to Jesus Christ. 0:00 – Pro-Life Real Estate Support 0:23 – Introduction: Glory to Jesus Christ 0:44 – “Deny Yourself, Take Up Your Cross” Explained 1:17 – Christ’s Human Heart & Suffering 3:08 – A Life of Sorrow: Christ’s Hidden Crucifixion 4:10 – “Who Do You Say That I Am?” 5:33 – Peter Rebukes Jesus 5:48 – “Get Behind Me Satan” Meaning 6:24 – Thinking Like Man vs. Thinking Like God 7:13 – How the World Shapes Your Mind 8:20 – The Trap of Wanting Approval 9:12 – Why Christ Rejects Worldly Systems 9:40 – Peter’s Shame and Self-Interest 11:22 – “If You Are Ashamed of Me…” 12:04 – Why Christians Don’t Face Persecution Today 12:45 – Why the Cross Is Necessary for Salvation 13:06 – Denying the World to Follow Christ 14:04 – Does God Want You to Enjoy Life? 15:15 – St. Augustine: Use vs. Enjoy 16:27 – All Creation Points to God 16:49 – When to “Crucify” Good Things 17:45 – Losing Your Life to Gain It 18:20 – The Cross Leads to Eternal Joy 18:57 – Victory of the Cross Explained 19:14 – Closing & Announcements For more please visit https://www.youtube.com/@OurLadyofWisdomLV & say 3 Hail Marys for the priest Fr.
