The End of Christmas: Candlemas, Simeon, & the Sword of Mary | Mary is Co-Redemptrix

About this sermon

February 2nd — Candlemas, the Feast of the Presentation of Our Lord and the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary — marks the solemn close of the Christmas season. In this reflection, we meditate on Simeon entering the Temple by the Holy Ghost, the first entrance of the Infant Christ into His Father’s house, and the profound role of Our Lady as Co-Redemptrix, offering not only her Son, but herself. Drawing from Divine Intimacy by Fr. Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalene and the Roman Breviary, we explore: Why Candlemas is a feast of both Jesus and Mary The blessing and procession of candles as a sign of Christ, Light of the Gentiles The mystical meaning of the two turtle doves The interior “gentile” within each soul — our dominant defects and untamed habits Simeon’s prophecy: “A sword shall pierce thy heart” Mary’s silent martyrdom and cooperation in the work of Redemption Loving the Law of God, the holy rule, and the hidden sacrifices that sanctify us As Holy Mother Church places lighted candles in our hands, she calls us to allow Christ to illumine our darkness, purify our hearts, and lead us away from the nations and into the Holy Temple of God. 📖 “A light to the revelation of the Gentiles, and the glory of Thy people Israel.” (Luke 2:32) 00:00 – Simeon Comes by the Holy Ghost 00:33 – Candlemas: The End of the Christmas Season 00:59 – A Feast of Jesus and Mary 01:32 – “Behold, the Lord Cometh into His Holy Temple” 02:00 – Candle Procession & St. John Paul II 02:51 – Christ: Light to the Gentiles 03:06 – The Interior Gentile: Dominant Defects 03:26 – The Two Turtle Doves Explained 04:28 – Mary as Co-Redemptrix 04:57 – Simeon’s Prophecy: The Sword of Sorrow 05:36 – Mary’s Lifelong Martyrdom 05:56 – Offering the Son and Offering the Self 06:17 – Respect for the Law of God 06:47 – Loving the Holy Rule and Interior Discipline 07:12 – Final Prayer and Conclusion For more please visit http://reginaecclesiae.com & remember to 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.
