Our Lady’s Dispositions – SSPX Sermons

Holy Mother Church gives us an entire season to prepare for the reception of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. It is easy for us to reproach ourselves that we did not spend this season preparing ourselves adequately for such a wonderful gift. However, when we look to the Blessed Virgin, we are given an exquisite model of the proper disposition we ought to take. She demonstrates the humility, openness, and abandonment to Divine Providence that we are all called to accept.

A Man in Love – SSPX Sermons

The love we feel for one another as demonstrated in the love of Hilaire Belloc for his wife is minute compared for the love Our Lord Jesus Christ has for us. Our Lord came across time, willing to submit Himself as a child, in order to save us. There is no greater love.

Anxiety and the Path to Peace – SSPX Sermons

Even from prison, St. Paul insists on throwing off anxiety and remaining in the peace of Jesus Christ. This should provide us with an opportunity to reflect on what in life denies us peace. Surely, sin is the great disrupter of peace and sin is the direct result of the disorders present in our lives. Anxiety, too, robs us of peace. To overcome this anxiety, we must both look at all things with the eyes of faith and mortify our thoughts.

Recognizing Our Lord in Our Midst – SSPX Sermons

The blindness of the Pharisee’s as to the identity of the true Messiah was not limited to the time of His baptism, but lasted throughout the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Indeed, it has continued through the life of the Church. Just like the people who lived in Christ’s lifetime, people down through the ages up until today fail to recognize Our Lord in their midst. Rather than submit themselves to God, they cling to their conception of who the Messiah should be and thereby reject the only true one.

The Dangers of Venial Sin – SSPX Sermons

It is common for us to treat venial sin as not serious. Yet every sin imperils our salvation. When we choose sinful acts, we abandon our end. This is why we must be vigilant to be careful in every act we do. There are no “small” sins if we are serious about our salvation. Sadly, there is a temptation to overlook these sins as irrelevant without remembering that every transgression offends Our Lord.

The Immaculate Conception & Sacred Scripture – SSPX Sermons

The Church’s doctrine of the Immaculate Conception of our Lady is a pinnacle of the liturgical year. By God’s grace she was preserved from the stain of original sin. Her preservation from original sin is a sign of how God set her apart from all of humanity. She had a singular role in salvation history that was foreordained by God to be the vessel that housed Our Savior, Jesus Christ.

The Spirit of Evolutionism – SSPX Sermons

We know of the fall of man and the downfall of the human race. When we reflect on evolution, we might think that we begin at a low level and then developed into better people. But we did not. The tragedy of humanity is our God given capacity to achieve goodness, but without Christ there is no way to achieve it.

Every Moment is Sacred – SSPX Sermons

Our Lady’s sanctity is highlighted in the feast of the Immaculate Conception. This feast underlines the fact that Our Lady is full of grace. In our own lives, we are given a choice whether to live by nature alone or to be open to God’s grace. To accomplish this, we should strive to prepare ourselves for every sacred act we wish to perform or that God will ask of us based on our station in life. We must be ready for it if we wish to receive our Lord’s grace.

Prepare for the Coming of the Savior – SSPX Sermons

At the end of time, Our Lord will come as a just judge, dispensing publicly and privately the punishment or rewards to each as is due. How we respond to this Second Coming of Christ is reflected in how we respond now to his first coming in the Incarnation. It is at this time that we are called to submit to Our Lord Jesus Christ. For if we do not submit to him now, during this season of Advent, surely we will not submit when He comes again in glory.
