Last week, the Archbishop of Mexico City,
Cardinal Norberto Rivera, encouraged fellow Christians to be strong
in defending the faith in the public square. He said:
Knowledge of Christ the King will help us to avoid confusing
his kingdom with any social regime, and it will also help us to be aware of our
dignity and our commitments as living members of that Kingdom that Christ Jesus
came to establish two thousand years ago.
…As subjects of Christ the King, we should take up the torch
of the Gospel in our hands and witness with our lives to the truth proclaimed
by Jesus.
But we Christians should be listeners of the Gospel before
becoming its spokesmen, as Jesus Himself reminds us: 'He who is of the truth
hears my voice.'
As the
Church prepares for the coming of Christ, let us join together in our search
for Christ’s truth and let us be strong for each other in defending it.
Our
Lady of Guadalupe, Pray for Us!
