Rich Man & Lazarus: They have Moses and the Prophets, but We Have that and More

About this sermon

Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory forever! In today’s homily, we reflect on the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19–31) — a powerful reminder about repentance, compassion, and the importance of spiritual guidance in our journey toward salvation. Through this Gospel reflection, we are reminded that it’s never too late to reexamine our lives, seek repentance, and follow the narrow path that leads to Paradise. Just as the rich man learned too late that ignoring those in need has eternal consequences, we are called now to listen to Moses, the Prophets, and the Saints — the spiritual guides who point us toward Christ. Fr. beautifully explains how finding a spiritual father — a true physician of the soul — helps us heal from the wounds of sin and walk with humility and obedience toward God. 🙏 Whether you are seeking deeper spiritual direction or simply wish to renew your faith, this message will help you reflect on mercy, obedience, repentance, and salvation. ⏱️ Timestamps 0:00 – Introduction: Glory to Jesus Christ! 0:13 – The Rich Man and Lazarus: A sobering realization 1:01 – Missed opportunities and eternal consequences 2:30 – Abraham’s reply: “They have Moses and the Prophets” 3:08 – Lessons from Christ’s parable for our lives today 4:01 – Who should we listen to? 5:01 – St. Simeon the New Theologian and the path to salvation 6:00 – Finding a spiritual father: the signpost to Paradise 7:05 – Spiritual sickness and the need for healing 8:25 – The deception of the modern world 9:03 – Beware of false prophets and false spirituality 10:00 – The true spiritual father: who he is and what he does 11:00 – The state of the modern Church and loss of spiritual guides 12:15 – Why true spiritual fathers are rare 13:00 – Becoming a spiritual child of the Saints 14:12 – Transformation through obedience and reading 15:04 – Final exhortation: do not waste the little time we have 15:27 – Glory to Jesus Christ!
