Some followers of this slogan are:

  • Rexism (from Latin Christus Rex), a Roman Catholic collaborationist movement during the occupation of Belgium by Nazi Germany.
  • Guerrilleros de Cristo Rey ("Christ King guerrillas"), a violent illegal organization operating during the Spanish transition to democracy against leftists and what they deemed obscenity.
