20th November 2022 “Sunday of Christ the King”

Jesus came into the world as the ‘upside down’ king – his kingdom is not of this world.

To commit to following Jesus is not to go along the pathway of power, authority or prestige.

Rather to relate with humility, through compassion, holding fast to a righteous way of living. The turmoil of the heavens was a sign that a new creation was in the making.

In Christ’s birth God proclaimed that the reality of peace had dawned on earth.

The proclamation of peace is costly…even Jesus and his parents became political refugees in Egypt.

In the struggle for liberation all must be connected and so we need each other.
