Jesus Christ is King: “My kingdom does not belong to this world”

Today, the Gospel reminds us of the dramatic interrogation to which Pontius Pilate subjected Jesus. To the questions of the Roman governor, Jesus answered affirming that he was King, but not of this world. He did not come to dominate over nations and territories, but to free men from the slavery to sin and to reconcile them with God. Jesus has the divine power to give eternal life. It is the power of Love, which knows how to take good from evil, soften hardened hearts, bring peace to conflict ... -This Kingdom of grace never imposes itself and always respects our freedom.
