Christ the King Sunday
Pastor Jack Mannschreck
Kingship, both human and divine is the focus of the readings for this Sunday. Though a flawed vessel, King David was everything a human king ought to be. Second Samuel relates the last words of David, an oracle proclaiming the commitment of his hours and lineage to God’s everlasting covenant. David trusted the Lord. Divine kingship alone is sufficient to remain faithful. Ultimately, all human kings fail us. Christ alone is our rightful King. Based on II Samuel 23:1-7 and John 18:33-37
