Abstract

Worshippers at Catholic Christmas services may come seeking festivities focused on the infant Jesus but will find in the Scriptures proclaimed and the proper texts of the Christmas liturgies all-encompassing theological claims about salvation through an adult Christ who suffered, died, and rose from the dead. The official Christmas liturgies of the Roman rite were shaped by doctrinal concerns and historical circumstances. They emphasize a ‘holy exchange’ between divinity and humanity in Christ incarnate that opens a way for redemption accomplished historically, celebrated liturgically, and fully realized eschatologically. The celebration of Christmas in Roman Catholic worshipping communities involves situating Christ’s birth in the broader context of his death and Resurrection, negotiating the placement of paraliturgical and cultural customs that nourish the piety of the people and contextualize the feast, and preaching the Gospel in ways that inspire worshippers to become witnesses for Christ in the world.

罗马天主教
在天主教的圣诞节礼拜中,礼拜者可能会寻求以婴儿耶稣为中心的庆祝活动,但他们会在圣经中发现,在圣诞节礼拜仪式的适当文本中,都包含了关于通过一个成年的基督受苦、死亡和从死里复活而得救的神学主张。罗马仪式的官方圣诞节礼拜仪式受到教义和历史环境的影响。他们强调在基督的化身中神性和人性之间的“神圣交换”,这为历史上完成的救赎开辟了一条道路,在仪式上庆祝,并在末世论上完全实现。在罗马天主教礼拜团体中,圣诞节的庆祝活动包括将基督的诞生置于他的死亡和复活的更广泛的背景中,协商辅助礼仪和文化习俗的位置,以滋养人们的虔诚和使节日情境化,并以激励崇拜者成为基督在世界上的见证人的方式传讲福音。
