Christ the King: The True Reign of Jesus Over Heaven and Earth | On Quas Primas and the Sacred Heart
In today’s Gospel reflection, we hear Our Lord proclaim that His kingdom is not of this world — yet He is indeed King of Heaven and Earth. This powerful homily explores the kingship of Jesus Christ, His divine authority, and our duty to acknowledge Him not only in our hearts but in our nations and public life. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, St. Thomas Aquinas, and Pope Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas (instituting the Feast of Christ the King), this sermon reveals why denying Christ’s kingship over civil society leads to moral collapse and why the Sacred Heart of Jesus remains the remedy for the world’s confusion and sin. You’ll hear the history of France’s failure to consecrate itself to the Sacred Heart, the tragedy of Louis XVI, and the redemptive story of the Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Montmartre (Sacré-Cœur) — a national act of penance and perpetual adoration. This message calls us to reparation, Eucharistic devotion, and a renewed consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus — for ourselves, our families, and our nations. 🙏 “France penitent, France devoted, France grateful” — may the same words be true of us all. 🕰️ Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction: “My kingdom is not of this world” 00:30 – Christ’s kingship and apparent contradiction in Scripture 01:00 – St. Thomas Aquinas on Christ’s judicial power 02:40 – Pope Pius XI and Quas Primas: Christ’s authority over all nations 03:30 – The modern rejection of Christ’s kingship 04:00 – A Catholic voter’s letter and the cry of “We have no king but Caesar” 05:30 – Cardinal Mercier and the apostasy of nations 06:30 – Pope Leo XIII on the punishment of modern liberty without God 07:10 – The revelation of the Sacred Heart to St. Margaret Mary 08:30 – The failed consecration of France and the French Revolution 09:50 – The founding of the Basilica of the Sacred Heart (Sacré-Cœur) 11:00 – Perpetual adoration and national penance in France 12:40 – The inscription: “France penitent, devoted, and grateful” 13:40 – The call for reparation in our own nation 14:20 – Holy Communion and union with Christ 15:30 – The story of Venerable Mariana of Jesus 16:20 – The Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Eucharist 16:40 – Closing prayer and blessing Please remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest Adoration video there • Adoration de nuit à la Basilique du Sacré-... #ChristTheKing #SacredHeartOfJesus #CatholicHomily #QuasPrimas #TraditionalCatholic #EucharisticRevival #CatholicFaith #JesusIsKing #CatholicChurch #ConsecrationToTheSacredHeart #CatholicSermon #LatinMass #KingOfKings #CatholicHistory #ChristianFaith 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-b...
