Mandeville, LA – The following are my comments delivered before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass today on the 23nd Sunday after Pentecost and the feast of Saint Jude and Saint Simon and also the Feast of The Kingship of Christ.

To those who say that Christ’s Kingdom is not of this world and, consequently, religion and politics must be separated, Pius addressed these strong words: “It would be a grave error, on the other hand, to say that Christ has no authority whatever in civil affairs since, by virtue of the absolute empire over all creatures committed to him by the Father, all things are in his power.”

Saint Simon and Jude were Apostles of Our Lord and were brothers. Saint Simon is called the Zealot, to distinguish him from Simon Peter. Saint Jude is called Thaddeus, which means big-heart. Saint Simon was martyred by being crucified. Saint Jude was martyred by being clubbed to death. Their stories are in Butler’s Lives of The Saints. From the history of Saint Jude by the Reverend Alban Butler.

“The apostle exhorts the faithful to treat those who were fallen with tender compassion, making a difference between downright malice and weakness, and endeavouring by holy fear to save them, by plucking them as brands out of the fire of vice and heresy, and hating the very garment that is spotted with iniquity. He puts us in mind to have always before our eyes the great obligation we lie under of incessantly building up our spiritual edifice of charity, by praying in the Holy Ghost, growing in the love of God, and imploring his mercy through Christ.”

Pius XI announced the feast of The Kingship of Christ in his encyclical Quas Primas, which was delivered on December 11, 1925. Hamish Frasier, A Scot turned Communist turned devout Catholic called the encyclical “the greatest non-event in the history of the Church” — that we now live in an insufferable geopolitical hell.

Pius XI began Quas Primus by describing the horrible conditions mankind was laboring under.

“We remember saying that these manifold evils in the world were due to the fact that the majority of men had thrust Jesus Christ and his holy law out of their lives; that these had no place either in private affairs or in politics: and we said further, that as long as individuals and states refused to submit to the rule of our Savior, there would be no really hopeful prospect of a lasting peace among nations.”

Pius declared that he expected three “blessings” to flow from the celebration of the feast:

first, that “men will doubtless be reminded that the Church, founded by Christ as a perfect society, has a natural and inalienable right to perfect freedom and immunity from the power of the state”; second, that “Nations will be reminded by the annual celebration of this feast that not only private individuals but also rulers and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ”; and third, that “The faithful, moreover, by meditating upon these truths, will gain much strength and courage, enabling them to form their lives after the true Christian ideal.”

Brother André Marie comments on this most important feast, preceding All Saints Day.

To those who say that Christ’s Kingdom is not of this world and, consequently, religion and politics must be separated, Pius addressed these strong words: “It would be a grave error, on the other hand, to say that Christ has no authority whatever in civil affairs since, by virtue of the absolute empire over all creatures committed to him by the Father, all things are in his power.”

The famed Catholic apologist and globe trotting speaker, Michael Davies wrote of the Feast of Christ The King.

“The Church’s teaching is that the State has an obligation to render public worship to God in accord with the teachings of the True Church, the Catholic Church, and positively to aid the Catholic Church in the carrying out of her functions. The State does not have the right to remain neutral regarding religion, much less to pursue a secular approach in its policies. A secular approach is by that very fact an anti-God and an anti-Christ approach. This unequivocal teaching was summarized very clearly by Pope St. Pius X, who, in his encyclical Vehementer Nos, condemned the principle of the separation of Church and State as ‘an absolutely false and most pernicious thesis.’”

The most intriguing part of considering the Kingship of Christ as Pius IX, Leo XIIIm Pius X and Pius XI pleaded with the modern world to do is the prospect of the United States altering the Federal Constitution, as the 1871 ERA convention asked it to do, from We The People to The Kingship of Christ Our Lord is necessary to observe that “in order to…”. Note that “order” cannot prevail upon the lives and governance of men for their happiness until and unless the rule of Christ the King is primary.
