⁣Christ the King. How easy it is to become impatient in waiting for the King to fulfill His Promises. How easy it is to start wondering where He has gone in times like these. The great Russian writer, Fyodor Dostoevsky, describes in an insightful allegory (called the Grand Inquisitor) how a Cardinal decided to act on this impatience and form his own kingdom while remaining in his position inside the Church, the Kingdom of Christ on earth. The Cardinal justifies himself on why he founded a new kingdom, how he did it (that is, who helped him), and some of the effects. This allegory seems to have a haunting echo or fulfillment in our times. Let us, then, be patient in waiting for the fulfillment of His Majesty’s promises lest we become a Grand Inquisitor ourselves or help some new Grand Inquisitor in our midst today. Let us pray and hope that the King of kings will visit any such Inquisitors that are alive today with a powerful actual grace.
