Christ our King – Nov 20 – Homily – Fr Matthias

 

Fr Matthias gives the homily at Bloomington, IN, on Nov 20, 2022, the Solemnity of Christ the King, explaining that He is King by nature and by conquest. By nature because he is God and by Conquest for having been obedient to the Father's will, dying on the cross. For this reason, we must seek out Christ, know his law and live by it. How well we do this will be the basis of how we are judged on the final day of judgment, with eternal reward or punishment. We must foster this kingdom in our hearts through a healthy prayer life and encourage those around us to do that as well, incorporating Christian principles into society. All external activity should be an outgrowth of prayer, especially the rosary.

Ave Maria!
