Fr. Matthias Shehad reflects on the warnings God gives through Scripture, divine judgments, human reason, and chastisement. He explains how these warnings are meant to guide believers away from sin and false teachings, emphasizing the example of Christ as the Good Shepherd who guards the true path to salvation.
The talk explores common human responses to God’s warnings, such as doubt, ignoring the message, false appearances of righteousness, pride, indifference, mocking, and direct challenge to God’s authority. Fr. Matthias highlights examples from biblical figures like Adam and Eve, Cain, Eli, and St. Peter to illustrate these reactions.
He concludes by encouraging a wise response through heeding God’s instructions and immediate repentance, drawing on the story of Nineveh’s prompt conversion. This sermon offers spiritual guidance on recognizing and responding to God’s warnings in daily life.
