Book excerpt: Written in 1932, and just as pertinent today, Fr. Fahey explains the doctrine of Christ the King, and His rights in and over societies and nations, based upon the teaching of the Church, and in particular the Encyclical Quas Primas. Scripture tells us that "every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord." Christ is not just King of Heaven, He is also King of the Earth, and desires that man establish his societies and nations under His benign rule. Fr. Fahey describes to us what this ideal State should look like, as it follows the program of Christ, as opposed to that of Satan and "organized naturalism."
