Fr Terrance gives the homily at Bloomington, IN on Apr 30, 2022, on the commandments, starting with the first, to put God first.

Notes:

CCC 2070 Commandments are unchangeable

What God commands he provides the strength to obey

There is a positive and negative

CCC 2083-2141 1st Commandment to be monotheists

Points to the three theological virtues

Love:

Faith: CC1843 – Ascent to the truth do not descent from it.

Hope: CCC 1817 –

Worship and serve our one true God

Adore – latria, respect praise be humble and grateful, focus on the blessings, Eucharistic adoration

Prayer CCC 2098 – In order to Obey need to pray. Ask for grace to obey and God

Sacrifice – Offer Him our Hearts, must be added to external practices, Promises, and vows

Service – Evangelization  CCC 2105 make known the one true worship in the Catholic Church, which also involves upholding freedom of Religion.

Sins against the first commandment:

Faith – disbelief, Apostasy,

Hope – despair and presumption

Charity – indifference to God, lukewarmness, hatred of God

Superstition, casting spells, tarot, witchcraft

Idolatry – worshiping false Gods or crated things or people in place of God CCC 2113

Atheism, agnosticism, Simony,

sacrilege, many forms, tempting God, expecting an unusual action from God.

Sins again the first commandments are grave enough to be mortal sins if sufficient knowledge and freedom in the act

Part of forming a good conscience

God wants us to put him first so that He can give us His gifts
