Lenten Mission Day 5: The Passion of Christ “Christ Died for Me” ~ Fr Buckley, FSSP

About this sermon

On this Good Friday, we meditate deeply upon the Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ, recalling that on this day God made man in Genesis, and on this same day the Son of God mounted the wood of the Cross for our salvation. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, St. Ignatius of Loyola’s Spiritual Exercises, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Augustine, Isaiah 53, the Shroud of Turin, and the medical research of Dr. Pierre Barbet, this meditation walks step-by-step through the scourging, crowning with thorns, carrying of the Cross, crucifixion, and death of Christ. We reflect on: Pilate’s cowardice The choice of Barabbas over Christ The Roman scourging and its brutal medical reality The Crown of Thorns pressed into Christ’s Sacred Head The Seven Last Words from the Cross The role of Our Lady at Calvary The Good Thief’s act of faith The blood and water flowing from the Sacred Heart of Jesus This meditation invites the soul to ask the question posed by St. Ignatius: Christ died for me. What have I ever done for Christ? What am I doing for Christ? What will I do for Christ? May this Good Friday meditation help convert hearts, strengthen faith, and deepen love for Our Crucified Savior. ✝️ By His wounds, we are healed. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS (CHAPTERS) 00:00 – Good Friday and the Creation of Man 01:08 – Pilate Declares Christ Innocent 02:42 – Barabbas Chosen Over Christ 04:07 – The Scourging Ordered 06:45 – Roman Scourging Explained (Dr. Pierre Barbet) 09:36 – The Agony in the Garden & Sweating Blood 11:48 – The Crown of Thorns 14:31 – Ecce Homo: Behold the Man 16:16 – Carrying the Cross 18:49 – The Falls of Christ 19:55 – The Stripping of Our Lord 20:28 – The Nails Through the Wrists 21:56 – “Father, Forgive Them” 23:31 – “I Thirst” 25:29 – The Good Thief’s Faith 27:24 – Our Lady at the Foot of the Cross 30:11 – God Became Man That Man Might Become God 31:59 – “My God, My God, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me?” 32:46 – “It Is Finished” 34:16 – The Piercing of Christ’s Side 35:08 – Final Reflection: What Will I Do for Christ?
