Sermon: The Last Judgment

"And then they shall see the Son of man coming in a cloud with great power and majesty." (St. Luke xxi. 27.) "On earth the sinner will always have some excuse for the sins committed by him; he even brings his pride into the tribunal of penance, where he ought to appear only to accuse and humble himself. Some plead ignorance, others strong temptations; others again special opportunities and bad examples; every day you can hear the reasons which the sinners proffer to hide the hideousness of their crimes. Come now, ye proud sinners, and let us see how your excuses will be received on the judgment day; explain yourselves before Him who holds the torch in His hand and has seen, counted and weighed in the balance everything concerning you." ✅ For the full text transcript, visit: https://mannaofthesoul.blogspot.com/2022/11/sermon-cure-ars-last-judgement.html 0:00 - Introduction 2:26 - Men will wither away for fear and expectation of what shall come upon the whole world. 4:20 - God, whenever He intended to send a scourge over the world, always preceded it by a sign. 6:02 - The signs preceding the last judgement will be so horrible. 7:03 - Arise, ye dead, arise from your graves and appear anon before the judgment seat! 14:35 - The most distressing thing on that terrible day 15:40 - Excuses for the sins are vain and useless 20:09 - God is merciful, but He is also just. 20:22 - Conclusion Please remember to pray for all who made these information (meditations, sermons, audio) available to you.
