“You Will Seek Me and Not Find Me” | A Sobering Passion Week Warning

About this sermon

Monday of Passion Week brings us a sobering warning from Our Lord: “You will seek Me and you will not find Me.” In this powerful Catholic reflection, we explore a deeply neglected spiritual truth: the danger of venial sin. While often dismissed as “small,” the Fathers of the Church teach that habitual venial sin leads the soul into lukewarmness, spiritual blindness, and ultimately mortal sin. Drawing from Sacred Scripture and the wisdom of saints like St. Augustine, St. Gregory, and St. Thomas Aquinas, this sermon reveals: Why venial sin weakens the soul How lukewarmness is worse than coldness The devil’s subtle strategy to destroy souls Why many who think they are safe are actually in danger This Passion Week, examine your conscience deeply. Do not wait until it is too late. 👉 “Do not despise venial sins because they are small — fear them because they are many.” – St. Augustine 0:00 – “You Will Seek Me and Not Find Me” 0:27 – Christ’s voluntary sacrifice and departure 1:05 – Who cannot follow Christ? 1:46 – Warning to sinners and the lukewarm 2:24 – Can venial sin lead to damnation? 2:48 – Three reasons from the Fathers 3:03 – Two types of venial sin explained 4:08 – How venial sin distances us from God 5:01 – The danger of spiritual delay 5:49 – Biblical examples: Saul, Ahab, David 7:38 – Weakening of the soul through small sins 8:16 – Lukewarmness explained (Revelation warning) 9:23 – St. Augustine: many small sins destroy 10:05 – Confession and false peace 10:53 – The devil’s strategy against the pious 11:52 – Losing grace little by little 12:47 – Final exhortation: love God, hate all sin To donate to the Church Restoration Project in Ireland please visit https://gofundme.com/restore-immaculate 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 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/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Follow the Institute of Christ the King on...
