Described Christ the King in Biblical and Catholic Teaching
Christ the King is a Catholic Teaching based on the Encyclical Quas Primas of Pope Pius XI.<ref>http://www.vatican.va/content/pius-xi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xi_enc_11121925_quas-primas.html</ref> It affirms as a Sovereign Right of Jesus Christ to be recognized as "King of kings and Lord of lords" (Rev 19:16) by all peoples everywhere. St. John the Apostle also describes Jesus Christ the King as "the Prince over the kings of the Earth" (Rev 1:5). The Archangel had said to the Virgin Mother concerning Christ, "He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever" (Luk 1:32). And Christ Himself said "All power is given to Me in heaven and in earth."(Mat 28:18). He therefore has a divine right to be honored, on earth as in Heaven, as King of kings by all.
