The Meaning of Christ the King-Sheep to The Right and Goats to The Left

Kingship is a foreign ideal to Americans. It is an increasingly banal ideal in Europe. We have lost the historical reference for the Feast of Christ the King in this day and age which idolizes democratic leaders in the cult of personality.

We have lost the ideal of noblesse oblige and the cost of real service to one's nation.

We have lost the ideal of trained leaders, not so-called self-made men and women who may or may not be following natural law philosophy or the Judeo-Christian tradition.

Too many Catholics in America sincerely believe in the separation of Church and State, which is not a teaching of the Catholic Church.

The Church has stated over and over, through encyclicals and other documents, that the State has a sphere of influence, but the Church does as well. In fact, it is the duty of the State to protect the one, true, holy, Catholic and apostolic Church because it was founded by Christ the King.


Any nation which ignores the laws of the King of Heaven and Earth will suffer the consequences of the rebellious angels. If Catholics think they can push the teachings of the Church to the side in the discussions of morality in the public sphere, Christ will not recognize them when He returns. He is King and kings have the right to judge over life and death, reward and punishment.

Matthew 12:29-30
29"Or how can anyone enter the strong man's house and carry off his property, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house. 30"He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

There are several modernist heresies, pushed by the Masons, which want to complete marginalize the Church and religion in the public sphere.

If you are a Catholic who believes in these heresies, you have cut yourself off from the graces of Holy Mother Church.

The first is indifferentism, which claims all religions are the same. Pope Gregory XVI in 1832 defined and condemned this in Mirari Vos - On Liberalism and Religious Indifferentism.

Here is the link to read this important document. I have highlighted this before on this blog.


The second great heresy which undermines the role of the Catholic Church in politics is that of eirenism.

This heresy, sadly, is believed by many Catholics. In Humani Generis, found here at this link, http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Pius12/P12HUMAN.HTM.

In this heresy, a person holds that differences in religions can be overlooked for the sake of a false unity. This is common in the political world, which wants only to follow what is "politically correct" and create a false unity not based on Truth. Some Catholic politicians and even cardinals and bishops are willing to compromise the Truth of the King of All Nations in order to find unity. Of course, one cannot have detente, as it were, with the enemies of Christ and His Church.


A quotation from the encyclical notes that: 

Let them strive with every force and effort to further the progress of the sciences which they teach; but let them also be careful not to transgress the limits which We have established for the protection of the truth of Catholic faith and doctrine. With regard to new questions, which modern culture and progress have brought to the foreground, let them engage in most careful research, but with the necessary prudence and caution; finally, let them not think, indulging in a false "irenism," that the dissident and erring can happily be brought back to the bosom of the Church, if the whole truth found in the Church is not sincerely taught to all without corruption or diminution.

The Masons and even some Catholics consistently deny that the Church has a huge role to play in the governing of nations. In fact, without the input and protection of the Church, nations are doomed to perish.

Why?

There is only One Truth and He is a Person.


John 14:6 Douay-Rheims: Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me.


Until nations go back to the philosophy of natural law, and condemn both socialism and communism again, unless nations follow the Revelation of both the Old and New Testaments regarding morals and virtues, unless nations return to the Kingship of Christ, there will be no peace on earth.

We are the people of the Kingdom, but that kingdom is not a false, millennial utopia. It is the Kingdom of God, as taught by the one, holy, Catholic and apostolic Church.

Christ is to be King of our hearts, minds, souls and nations. We can either acknowledge His Kingship or reject it. If one rejects Christ as King, one must accept the consequences.

Matthew 25:12 Douay-Rheims: But he answering said: Amen I say to you, I know you not. 

Christ the King will come again and separate the sheep and the goats. Please, please, do not be a goat.



I fear for the Catholic goats. I fear for those who are stubbornly supporting the enemies of the Church. Why cannot they see this?
