Mine was Treason by Ann Coulter.
See my tagline.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Ok but I wonder how much the association with the bad folks is only because regular Catholics (I’m a trad Catholic myself) and mainline Protestants are weak-kneed and have all but abandoned the phrase.
But the idea of Christus Rex goes way back. We have a feast called “The Feast of Christ the King” that happens every single year. There’s a old hymn “To Jesus Christ our Sovereign King”.
The phrase needs to come back one way or another...and opposing it because some bad actors are using it is IMHO like saying we should stop eating dinner because bad people eat dinner too.
