The Abomination That Stands in the Holy Place | What Must You Flee Before Great Lent?

About this sermon

Your phone can be a lifeline — strengthening your faith, family, and community. But what is standing in the holy place of your heart? As the Church leads us into Cheesefare Week, the final preparation before Great Lent, we hear Christ’s sobering words from Mark 13 about deception, tribulation, and the “abominable and destructive presence.” This Gospel is not meant to frighten us — it is meant to wake us up. This homily explores: The spiritual meaning of the “abomination” in our own lives How attachments quietly take over the heart Why we must not negotiate with sin The purpose of fasting before Lent False messiahs in the modern world Why resentment is a false savior How Cheesefare Week trains us in discernment Great Lent is not about food — it is about freedom. It is about cleaning out the pantry of the heart. As Forgiveness Vespers approaches, we must ask: What cannot come with me into the Fast? Christ warns us not to delay. Not to look back. Not to rationalize. Run — not in fear — but in freedom. In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 📱 Download the Sensus Fidelium App today. ⚔️ Support the Martyrs Walk Fund: https://themartyrsfund.org 0:00 Catholic Mobile Sponsor 0:25 Opening Prayer 0:36 Cleaning Out the Pantry Before a Journey 1:06 Mark 13 and the Abominable Presence 1:51 Do Not Negotiate With What Destroys Your Soul 2:10 Cheesefare Week & Letting Go 2:45 Attachments That Quietly Take Over the Heart 3:12 False Christs and False Prophets 3:40 What Has Your Attention? 4:08 Holy Decisiveness 4:47 Trust in Tribulation 5:16 Restraint, Freedom, and Forgiveness 5:45 What Cannot Come With You Into Lent? 6:05 The Mercy of Preparation 6:26 Clean Out the Pantry of the Heart 6:49 Sensus Fidelium App 6:55 Martyrs Walk Fund For more please visit https://www.youtube.com/@st.johnchrysostombyzantine2197 & 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/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
