Good Friday: The One Who Stands in the Breach: Christ the True Mediator Explained

About this sermon

It was to save us that Our Lord Jesus Christ delivered Himself into the hands of sinners and endured the torment of the Cross. In this powerful Good Friday reflection, we explore the meaning of “standing in the breach”—a biblical image of mediation between God and man. From the story of the Dutch boy holding back the waters, to Moses on Mount Sinai, to Phineas stopping the plague, all point toward the ultimate mediator: Jesus Christ on Calvary. Christ alone bridges the infinite gap between divine justice and human sin. He stands between heaven and earth, holding back the flood of God’s just wrath through His sacrifice on the Cross. In a world marked by moral collapse, idolatry, and apostasy, the faithful are called to imitate Christ—through prayer, sacrifice, and intercession—to help bring about reconciliation. 👉 Will you stand in the breach? 0:00 – Opening Prayer & Good Friday Reflection 0:36 – The Story of the Dutch Boy and the Dike 1:48 – Holding Back the Waters: A Powerful Image 2:25 – “Standing in the Breach” Explained 3:26 – Moses as Mediator on Mount Sinai 5:28 – St. Augustine on Moses’ Intercession 6:40 – Phineas and the Plague Stopped 8:14 – Old Testament Mediators Point to Christ 9:21 – Christ the Perfect Mediator 10:13 – The Piercing of Christ’s Sacred Heart 10:57 – The Crisis of the Modern World 11:51 – False Desire for Chastisement 12:16 – Our Call to Intercede with Christ 12:48 – Final Exhortation: Save the City For more please go to http://www.reginaprophetarum.org & please say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 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/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
