Abstract

Young Catholics have an important role to play in the Church as the next generation and agents of change. This was affirmed by Saint Yoanes Paul II who called them the future of the Church and a source of hope for society. The Church sees the importance of the physical and spiritual development of young Catholics so that they are ready to take part in the service of the Church. The active participation of the faithful, especially the youth, is essential in realizing the expectations of all Church members in seeing the Church flourish. Young Catholics are encouraged to participate in various church activities, which aim to awaken their enthusiasm in knowing and deepening the Christian faith. The Church is expected to give attention and care in the apostolic task so that young people can live their faith. Liturgy as a work or service for the nation and a celebration of the mystery of salvation from God through Jesus Christ, plays an important role in shaping the faith and positive values of young people. This study aims to find out the participation of Catholic Youth in liturgical duties at St. Joseph's Church Stasi Lubuk Mantuk and identify the factors that cause their lack of participation. This study confirms that the responsibility of building the spirit of youth is the duty of the Church and the whole community

Abstract

The process of repentance and life change does not happen overnight, but rather through a long journey full of challenges. Such challenges include fear and doubt, discomfort from old habits, rejection and criticism from others, temptations that can lead to setbacks, and the need for patience and perseverance. To overcome this challenge, believers are encouraged to always pray and ask God for forgiveness, read the Bible and listen to God, and put to death the lust of the flesh by taking up the cross, which means facing suffering and trials faithfully. Through these actions, a person's faith can grow strongly, enabling them to better face temptations and challenges. Ultimately, strong commitment and self-denial are the keys to living a new life in accordance with God's will.

Abstract

This research uses qualitative methods;By conducting a literature review from various sources such as books, articles, and other references. This article presents the idea of physical death and the importance of biblical spiritual preparation to help believers not mistakenly respond to human death. Given some people's mistaken view of death and where people's spirits go after death, this study will give the idea that death in the Christian faith is the reward of human sin but that God is blessed with His loved ones. The results of the analysis show that a straightforward view of the judgment of death, and where people go after death, must be viewed based on what the Bible itself says, so that we do not follow certain cultural currents that still emphasize the presence of spirits of the dead in their lives.

Abstract

The book of Jeremiah 1:4-19 discusses God's call to the prophet Jeremiah. This research focuses on the response and meaning of the call conveyed in the book of Jeremiah 1:4-19 and its relevance in the lives of today's theology students. This research uses the literature detective method to analyze the meaning of God's call for theology students: the perspective of Jeremiah 1:4-19 so that theology students can understand and respond to that call well. The results show that Jeremiah is a real example of how someone responds to God's call with full dedication and steadfast faith, even though faced with various obstacles and rejection. Jeremiah's calling was not just a duty, but a gift that encouraged him to carry out this duty wholeheartedly. His awareness of this calling was planted from the start, even though it was accompanied by doubts and fears.

Abstract

The research is dedicated to the 60th anniversary of the Sacrosanctum Concilium (1963-2024). It is a special moment to reflect on the mystery of Crist celebrated in the liturgy. The main issue we are going to present is the relationship between song and liturgy and its function in liturgical celebrations. A song is a liturgical song when enters into the liturgy; it becomes part of the liturgy and takes a part in the purpose of the liturgy: to glorify God and sanctify the people of God. Liturgical songs lead them into the mystery that they are going to celebrate; as an accompaniment to ritual actions, adding the splendor and beauty of the celebration, or explaining and meditating the rite. Therefore, the text of the liturgical songs must be compatible with both the theological teachings and the actual celebration. It means liturgical songs are reserved to accompany liturgical celebrations only.

Abstract

This article deals with our plural and global society of today which impede the validity of ethical values. In this sense, the values of Christian ethics are needed to approach contemporary social issue. We must respond to the current situation of humanity by using library resources and observations of ethical issue in our society and how they can develop their normative effects under the conditions of freedom, plurality, demographic and digital change, as well as the complex economic and financial systems and, last but not least, under the fragile approval of the institutions of international politics. The argument then moves to the meta-theory of Christian ethics, namely the revelation of God as it is expressed in the ‘book of nature’, the written word, and the incarnate Word, Jesus Christ. The article concludes that as long as the values of Christian ethics remains faithful to this meta-theory, understands the modern macro-ethical questions and maintains a deep social focus, it will remain relevant in a plural and global society.
