No Peace Without Christ: Why the World Is Broken

About this sermon

Glory to Jesus Christ! In today’s homily, we reflect deeply on St. Paul’s message in the Epistle to the Ephesians, exploring the spiritual meaning of dividing walls—both historical and symbolic—and how Christ destroys the barriers that separate humanity. The homily explains the Temple’s ancient wall dividing Jews and Gentiles, the protective laws of Moses, and the fulfillment of these laws in Jesus Christ, who brings a New Covenant for all nations. Far from creating hostility, Christ establishes a new dividing line—between peace and chaos, between unity in Him and division in the world. We reflect on how many modern barriers—national, religious, political, racial, and personal—continue to plague society. Yet, St. Paul teaches that all who are baptized into Christ become one body, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ as the Cornerstone. The homily challenges us to live as true citizens of the household of God by loving our neighbor, embracing peace, and rejecting worldly hostility. Through compassion, mercy, and true discipleship, we become more like the Good Samaritan and secure eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
