St. Thomas the Apostle (21 December): Blessed Are Those Who Have Not Seen

About this sermon

Blessed are they who have not seen, and yet have believed. In this profound Catholic sermon for the Feast of Saint Thomas the Apostle, we meditate on one of the most powerful passages in Sacred Scripture: “My Lord and my God.” Given by Divine Providence during the final days of Advent, this feast beautifully unites the mystery of the Resurrection with the mystery of the Incarnation—Christ risen and Christ born in Bethlehem. Saint Thomas, often called Doubting Thomas, teaches us that faith is not blind sentiment but a supernatural gift that allows us to recognize the divinity of Christ even when we cannot see Him. As Saint Gregory the Great explains, Thomas saw the humanity of Jesus but believed in His divinity. This sermon addresses: Faith versus doubt in the modern world Objective truth versus relativism and situation ethics Why belief must be accompanied by works The danger of sentimentalism without truth Saint Thomas as a model of perseverance, courage, and evangelization The Incarnation, the Resurrection, and the God-Man Jesus Christ In an age of skepticism and moral confusion, Saint Thomas reminds us to remain solid as rock in the Catholic faith, to speak the truth with charity, and to live what we believe. May Saint Thomas the Apostle intercede for us, strengthen our faith, and help us one day to see the Risen Lord face to face. ✝️ “Be not faithless, but believe.” 0:00 – Opening Prayer & Scripture 0:38 – Feast of Saint Thomas and Divine Providence 1:15 – Gospel Reading: Thomas Encounters the Risen Christ 1:51 – “My Lord and My God” 2:44 – Who Was Saint Thomas? 3:26 – Saint Gregory the Great on Faith 4:37 – Blessed Are Those Who Have Not Seen 5:07 – Faith Must Be Accompanied by Works 6:14 – The Crisis of Truth in the Modern World 7:24 – Niceness vs Truth and Salvation 8:11 – The Incarnation and Mystery of Faith 9:04 – Saint Thomas as Model of Perseverance 9:47 – From Doubt to Martyrdom 10:30 – Final Encouragement and Prayer 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.
