PALABRA DE VIDA
“Jesús, con su victoria, nos abrió su reino, pero está en cada uno de nosotros la decisión de entrar en él, ya a partir de esta vida-el reino comienza ahora-haciéndonos concretamente próximo al hermano que pide pan, vestido, acogida, solidari-dad, catequesis. —Papa Francisco, Homilía en occasion de la Solemnidad de Cristo Rey, 23 de Noviembre del 2014 www.goo.gl/fYD2Hn ©Libreria Editrice Vaticana.
WORD OF LIFE
“Through his victory, Jesus has opened to us his kingdom.
But it is for us to enter into it, beginning with our life now-his
kingdom begins now-by being close in concrete ways to our
brothers and sisters who ask for bread, clothing, acceptance,
solidarity, catechesis.

THE SOLEMNITY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST,
KING OF THE UNIVERSE
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. As they approached to offer him
wine they called out, “If you are King of the Jews, save yourself.”
Above him there was an inscription that read, “This is the King of
the Jews.” 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, for you are subject to the same condemnation? And in-
deed, we have been condemned justly, for the sentence we re-
ceived corresponds to our crimes, 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.”
Lk 23:35-43
SOLEMNIDAD DE NUESTRO SEÑOR JESUSCRISTO, REY DEL UNIVERSO
Cuando Jesús estaba ya crucificado, las autoridades le hacían muecas, diciendo: "A otros ha salvado; que se salve a sí mismo, si él es el Mesías de Dios, el elegido". También los soldados se burlaban de Jesús, y acercándose a él, le of-recían vinagre y le decían: "Si tú eres el rey de los judíos, sál-vate a ti mismo". Había, en efecto, sobre la cruz, un letrero en griego, latín y hebreo, que decía: "Éste es el rey de los judíos". Uno de los malhechores crucificados insultaba a Jesús, diciéndole: "Si tú eres el Mesías, sálvate a ti mismo y a nosotros". Pero el otro le reclamaba, indignado: "¿Ni siquiera temes tú a Dios, estando en el mismo suplicio? Nosotros justamente recibimos el pago de lo que hicimos. Pero éste ningún mal ha hecho". Y le decía a Jesús: "Señor, cuando llegues a tu Reino, acuérdate de mí". Jesús le respondió: "Yo te aseguro que hoy estarás conmigo en el paraíso". Lc 23, 35-43
