34th Sunday in Ordinary Time- The Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ

The Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, is celebrated on the last Sunday in Ordinary Time. It recognizes the messianic Kingship and eternal Priesthood of Our Lord Jesus Christ. This idea appears and is repeated in all prayers and readings of the day, and especially in the public recitation of the indulgenced prayer, The Act of Dedication of the Human Race to Jesus Christ King. This feast is sometimes called “Solemnity of Christ the King.”

What specific truth is taught about the Lord Jesus Christ in the Solemnity of Christ the King?

The celebration of Christ the King directs our attention to Jesus Christ as Universal king and Eternal Priest.

Reading - Ezekiel 34

Thus says the Lord GOD: I myself will look after and tend my sheep. 

As a shepherd tends his flock when he finds himself among his scattered sheep,

so will I tend my sheep. I will rescue them from every place where they were scattered

when it was cloudy and dark. I myself will pasture my sheep;

I myself will give them rest, says the Lord GOD. The lost I will seek out, the strayed I will bring back , the injured I will bind up , the sick I will heal, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy,

shepherding them rightly.

As for you, my sheep, says the Lord GOD,

I will judge between one sheep and another,

between rams and goats.

On a piece of paper please write what Jesus says he "will" do... (you will show me this for credit)

He will....

He will....

Do a search on the internet and find 1 verse about Jesus also being our shepherd. Please share.

Matthew 18:12–14 Luke 15:3–7

Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.
