St. Anthony: You Are the Light of the World - Part 3/6 of Fr. Antonio Vieira, SJ

About this sermon

Part 3 of Fr. Antonio Vieira's masterful sermon for the Feast of St. Anthony of Lisbon explores one of the most profound symbols in Portuguese Catholic spirituality: the Five Wounds of Christ. Why did St. Anthony leave the Augustinian Order and enter the Franciscan Order? Fr. Vieira presents a fascinating answer rooted in the mission of Portugal, the symbolism of the Quinas, and the vocation of St. Anthony as the "Light of the World." In this sermon, Fr. Vieira reflects upon: • St. Anthony's transition from the Augustinians to the Franciscans • The Five Sacred Wounds of Christ • The symbolism of Portugal's Quinas • The conversion of St. Thomas the Apostle • The conquest of unbelief through Christ's Passion • The spiritual meaning of Portugal's missionary vocation • David's five stones as a foreshadowing of Christ's wounds • St. Francis and St. Anthony as bearers of divine light Rather than conquering through earthly power, St. Anthony conquered through preaching, holiness, and the power flowing from the wounds of Christ. This sermon offers a powerful meditation on evangelization, Franciscan spirituality, and the victory of divine truth over unbelief. "Francis held the banner. Anthony achieved the victories." Join us for Part 3 of this six-part series on one of the greatest sermons ever preached in honor of St. Anthony of Lisbon. St. Anthony of Lisbon, pray for us.
