Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us.

Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us.

Solemnity of Christ the King
November
20, 2016
“The rulers sneered at Jesus and said, “He saved others,
let him save himself if he is the chosen one, the Christ of God.”
Even the soldiers jeered at him.
“If you are King of the Jews, save yourself.”
Now one of the criminals hanging there reviled Jesus, saying,
“Are you not the Christ? Save yourself and us.”
The other, however, rebuking him, said in reply,
“Have you no fear of God, we have been condemned justly,
but this man has done nothing criminal.” Then he said,
“Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”
He replied to him,“Amen, I say to you,
today you will be with me in Paradise.”

Reflection

This week we celebrate Christ the King. In the best sense of the word,
a King is some one who cares for the people under his care, and also
has authority over them. When have you felt Jesus’ care for you? How
do you allow Jesus to have authority over you?
 As
you think about Jesus on the cross, having compassion on the “good
thief,” what lesson do you draw from it for your own life?
