Why We Must Love God Without Seeking Reward | On Charity

About this sermon

"I therefore, a prisoner in the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the vocation in which you are called..." (Ephesians 4:1) This powerful Catholic sermon calls us to love God above all things, not out of fear of hell or desire for heaven, but simply because He is all goodness and the source of all life. In this homily, you will hear: The difference between theological hope and theological charity Why we are called to love God with all our heart, mind, and soul The story of a woman who carried a torch and water to symbolize loving God beyond heaven or hell The example of St. Agnes, who gave her heart to God before all else How to receive Holy Communion with a heart free of self-interest, seeking only God Himself This sermon is a timeless reminder that perfect love of God goes beyond rewards or punishments—it is pure, unadulterated charity. 🙏 May this message inspire you to seek God with no strings attached, and to cling to Him in love, above all created things. 0:00 – Opening Prayer & Reading from Ephesians 4:1 0:34 – Living by the Spirit vs. Living by the Senses 1:02 – Bound to God by Love 1:16 – Loving God with All Your Heart 1:28 – Grace & Faith: The Foundation of Love 1:46 – God as the Supreme Good 2:35 – Loving God Beyond Reward or Punishment 3:18 – The Virtue of Hope vs. Pure Charity 4:02 – The Story of the Woman with Torch & Water 5:05 – Perfect Love and the Hope of Heaven 6:14 – Why Heaven Remains Hidden from Us 6:31 – Clinging to God Like a Magnet 7:03 – Receiving Christ in Holy Communion 7:36 – Example of St. Agnes’ Pure Love for God 8:15 – Prayer After Communion: Loving God Above All 8:32 – Closing Blessing (In the Name of the Father…) 📌 Scripture Reference: Ephesians 4:1, Matthew 22:37 ✝️ In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
