This year 2010 we pray the novena of 12 to 20 November . Feast of Christ, King of the universe, Sunday, November 21, 2010.
+ HISTORY: The Feast of Christ the King of the universe was established by Pope Pius XI, Dec. 11, 1925. It is also the last Sunday of Lent the Church. The following Sunday will be the first Sunday of Advent.
+ WORD OF GOD: "All power is given unto me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore to all nations and make disciples. And I am with you always, to the end of time "(Matthew 28, 18).
These are the last words of the risen Christ in the Gospel of St. Matthew. They help us to anticipate the unprecedented dimensions of the mystery that the Church celebrates the liturgical year to cap the mystery of Christ the King, the kingdom of Christ.
+ EXPLANATIONS Christ is King, is to affirm at one level, that Christ has power not only on earth but the entire cosmos.
It also proclaim that he is the master of history for all peoples and all times, and he leads the sovereign destiny of every man, every couple, every family, every community ...
Praying to Christ the King is to recognize that the love of Christ gives him all rights, is to recognize that Christ has the right to love as he wants, all he wants.
Whatever celebrate as our king is the Son of God who is the son of Mary. The master of the world and history said "mom" to a woman of the earth, and this same Jesus Christ who has all power in heaven.
Many people, admittedly, even among Christians might be offended by this feast of Christ the King, saying the lordship of Christ over history is not really clear! "But Jesus warned us of advance, when he responded to Pilate: "My kingdom is not of this world" (John 18, 37)
The Feast of Christ the King does not celebrate the triumph of the Church, but rather the entrance of the church in the universal work of the merciful Christ. But in this Lord so close to us, we recognize with joy, with enthusiasm, the master of the world and history, "that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and the underworld and that every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. "
