Christ the King, or Jesus Christ King of the Universe, is a title that recognizes the universal sovereignty of Jesus. His veneration intensified in the 20th century, culminating in the institution of the liturgical feast of Christ the King by Pope Pius XI in 1925 with the encyclical "Quas Primas". This feast was introduced to reaffirm the kingship of Christ in an era of increasing secularization and nationalism, reminding us that all authority comes from Him. The figure of Christ the King symbolizes his lordship over all creation, his mission of salvation, and his role as final judge. It is a reminder of hope and faith in his ultimate victory over evil, inspiring the faithful to live according to his teachings and to recognize his spiritual and moral authority in every aspect of life.
