St. Theophilus of Corte (19 May): What Does it Profit to Gain the Whole World but Lose Your Soul?

About this sermon

What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and suffers the loss of his soul? In this powerful Catholic reflection for the Feast of St. Theophilus of Corte, we are reminded of the necessity of prayer, penance, sacrifice, and glorifying God in every moment of our lives. St. Theophilus was a Franciscan reformer devoted to holiness, strict observance, and intense prayer — even praying through the night in love and adoration of God. This sermon reflects deeply on Sacred Scripture, especially the warning of St. Paul that those who know God but fail to glorify Him become darkened in mind and heart. In contrast, St. Theophilus gave himself completely to loving God with his whole heart, soul, and mind. Our Lady of Fatima asked us to pray and sacrifice for souls because many are lost due to a lack of prayer and sacrifice. Let this message inspire you to: ✝️ Pray the Rosary daily ✝️ Offer sacrifices for souls ✝️ Lead your family toward Heaven ✝️ Love God above all earthly things ✝️ Seek eternal life rather than worldly gain “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind.” 0:00 — Real Estate for Life Pro-Life Sponsor 0:26 — Feast of St. Theophilus of Corte 0:44 — Franciscan Reform & Holy Living 1:01 — Prayer, Penance, and Sacrifice 1:18 — St. Paul on Glorifying God 1:42 — St. Theophilus’ Intense Prayer Life 2:03 — Loving God Above All Things 2:18 — Eternal Life and the Saints 2:36 — Our Lady of Fatima’s Warning 2:45 — Pray and Sacrifice for Souls 2:52 — The Importance of the Family Rosary 3:00 — Gain the Whole World, Lose Your Soul 3:09 — Final Blessing For more please visit https://www.themarianfranciscans.org/ Please sign up at this link https://lifecrusade.org/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 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/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
