About this sermon
In this powerful Catholic sermon, we reflect on St. Paul’s words: “the letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life” (2 Corinthians 3:6). Drawing from today’s Epistle and the Gospel of the Good Samaritan, we discover how the Old Testament is fulfilled in Christ and how the Fathers of the Church understood Scripture through its fourfold sense—literal, allegorical, moral, and anagogical. This homily explains: Why the Old Testament cannot be read apart from Christ. The true meaning of grace as taught by the Catholic Church. How the Good Samaritan reveals Christ as the Divine Healer of fallen humanity. The importance of both loving God and loving our neighbor in order to inherit eternal life. You’ll hear how the Fathers and St. Thomas Aquinas interpreted this parable, why Protestant views of grace fall short, and how the Catholic doctrine of grace alone explains the mystery of salvation. 🙏 May this sermon inspire you to see Christ on every page of Scripture, to embrace the sacraments as channels of grace, and to live the twofold commandment of love in daily life.
