“Purge the Old Leaven” – Easter Sermon on Becoming a New Man in Christ

About this sermon

In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. “Purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new paste.” (1 Corinthians 5:7) This powerful Easter sermon reflects on the true meaning of the Resurrection—not just as an event in history, but as a transformation meant to take place within every soul. After 40 days of Lent, we must ask ourselves: Have we truly changed? Have we drawn closer to Christ? Or do we still cling to the “old man” of sin? St. Paul calls us to radical renewal—to cast off sin and become a new creation in Jesus Christ. The Resurrection is not only proof of Christ’s victory over death, but also a call for us to rise spiritually, to live in grace, and to seek holiness on God’s terms—not our own. Through the example of St. Paul’s own dramatic conversion, we are reminded that God’s grace can transform even the hardest of hearts—if only we allow it. Easter is the feast of feasts, the solemnity of solemnities. Let us live it not just outwardly, but inwardly—by becoming saints. 00:00 Opening Prayer 00:18 “Purge Out the Old Leaven” – St. Paul’s Call 00:31 What Does This Mean for Us Today? 00:43 Out With the Old Man, In With Christ 00:55 The True Purpose of Easter 01:12 Did Lent Change Us? 01:33 A Hard Truth: Have We Really Grown? 01:46 God’s Grace Is Ready to Transform Us 02:00 Becoming Saints on God’s Terms 02:29 The Radical Conversion of St. Paul 03:02 The Resurrection: Foundation of Faith 03:25 Christ Truly Rose from the Dead 03:47 Our Final End: Eternal Life 04:04 Easter – The Feast of Feasts 04:17 Humanity Redeemed from Sin 04:34 Christ the Firstborn of the Dead 04:47 Living as Risen Souls 05:06 Easter Joy and the Alleluia Returns 05:55 Freedom from the Death of Sin 06:06 The Lamb and the King 06:29 Christ: Lamb for Us, Lion for His Enemies 06:48 The Triumph of the Risen Christ 07:01 Call to Worship and Eternal Glory 07:01 Sensus Fidelium Promotion For more from this parish please visit https://www.institute-christ-king.org/oakland-sermons & please remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Follow the Institute of Christ the King on...
