The Second Vatican Council certainly let some fresh air into the Church. One of the most important points is the new paradigm of the Church mission. There is a fundamental shift from the mission of the Church (missio ecclesiae) to the mission of God (missio Dei). Furhermore, the switch of the paradigm is accompanied by the change of the mssion context, from the mission to the nations (ad gentes) to the mission among nations (inter gentes). In this new perspective, mission is not only about going to a far away country, but also to our closest environment. Therefore, everyone, including the family, is called to be a missionary.

Catechesis is the soul of the Church. Every priest has a responsibility to secure his faithful to get to know well about his faith. A priest not only celebrates the sacraments but also teaches the truth of christian faith. Therefore, priests as “the catechesist of catechesists” must develop the pastoral of catechesis in their parishes. But, it is not easy to develop it without a good planning. Priests need to know which subjects and also how this duty can be indicated well. In order to estabilish that, priests have to look at all oppurtunities in their parishes until they find the posibility to indicate a good pastoral of catechesis.

The Eucharist, which we celebrate today, has various aspects of spiritual richness worth to study. For an in-depth study on the Eucharist, the historical-biblical approach would be helpful, since such an approach would hopefully reveal its essential dimensions seen from a Christian perspective, namely, as a sign of grace which confers the grace it signifies. This study, using such a historical-biblical approach, tends to reveals the essential dimensions of the Eucharist starting precisely from its origin, namely, Jesus’ Last Supper arranged before his passion, death and burial. Rooted deeply in Jewish tradition, it shows its proper character as a Christian rite of salvation having Jesus’ sacrificial self-giving as its essential novelty.

The disciples of Jesus are called to be salt and light of the world (Mat. 5:13-16). Unfortunately, it is not always easy to fulfill this vocation, because on several occasions, their energy seems to run out due to the division between them. In such a situation, Jesus’ prayer (John 17) reminds them of the importance of the unity. The prayer that appears at the end of the farewell discourse shows that the true source of the disciples' unity comes from God himself; unity cultivated in a worldly way is often very fragile. Even so, the disciples still had a duty to prove in living together that true unity. This vocation has a missionary impact, for only then will everyone see that God really lives among his people. That is what drives the Catholic Church today to build ecumenical dialogue.

In marriage, husband and wife together strive to realize the community of life and love in all its aspects and dimensions: personal-human and spiritualreligious dimensions. In order for such a fellowship to be attained more easily, the Church wants the people to choose a partner who is of the same faith, bearing in mind that faith has a very strong influence on the inner and outer unity of husband and wife, the education of children and the welfare of the family. Out of respect for other religions, recognition of the right of every person to marry (cf. Can. 219), and various social realities, it is possible in the Catholic Church to have mixed marriage (mixta religio) or interfaith marriage (disparitas cultus). After all, mixed marriages and interfaith marriages can be a problem that continues to arise, in the midst of a pluralistic society. A lot of young Catholics at some point in their lives have to face this problem and seek information and assistance to determine attitudes and make concrete choices that must be accounted for. Moreover, some mixed marriages and interfaith marriages ofen need assistance in the journey of their married life. Renewal of the Church's position and policy towards these problems is a Church concern that can provide relief to the people. However, with the existing policies and guidelines, personal problems are not automatically resolved. It is the duty of the pastors of souls to continue to develop the ministry of mixed marriage and interfaith marriage, so that Catholics counterparts in such marriages are still able to witness the power of God's word and assist their children to grow in the Catholic faith.

Dei Verbum is a document from the Second Vatican Council which presents a fundamental understanding of the Scripture in the Church. Regarding its principal position as the source of Christian's faith, the magisterium urges the significance of proclaiming Scripture through homilies, catechesis, and, fellowship. Nowadays, Christians increasingly encourage to involve in this ministry. Nevertheless, there is a huge gap in understanding and awareness of the meaning and role of the Scripture, between clerics and laities. This condition shows how in the Church, especially in Indonesia, theology is still a limited domain of scholars and clergies. Driven by the spirit of communion promoted by the Second Vatican Council and the call from Dei Verbum to bring Scripture to life in the lives of all Christians, this paper presents a simple study of the problems facing Christians regarding their understanding of the Scriptures and the recommendations inspired by this document to address these issues.
Dei Verbum是梵蒂冈第二届大公会议的一份文件，它展示了教会对圣经的基本理解。考虑到其作为基督教信仰来源的主要地位，教会敦促通过讲道、教理讲授和团契来宣讲圣经的重要性。如今，越来越多的基督徒鼓励他们参与这个事工。然而，在理解和认识圣经的意义和作用方面，神职人员和俗人之间存在着巨大的差距。这种情况表明，在教会，特别是在印度尼西亚，神学仍然是学者和神职人员的有限领域。在梵蒂冈第二届大公会议所提倡的共融精神的推动下，以及“上帝的旨意”(Dei Verbum)的呼吁，将《圣经》带入所有基督徒的生活中，本文将对基督徒在理解《圣经》方面面临的问题进行简单的研究，并从本文件中得到启发，提出解决这些问题的建议。

Encountering with Christ as Christians brings Christian acts as Christ’s acts because Christians’ acts are always act of faith. This cannot be separated from the role of conscience in human heart which relates to Magisterium. However, some Christians and theologians thought that Christians, in some of their human acts, do not need Magisterium because of the conscience in human heart that God has given show them to do good and avoid evil directly. Indeed, this opinion is not true. Christians always need Magisterium to act properly as the followers of Christ. Conscience is not individual truth but conscience is the voice of God which exists in human heart with Christian faith. Thus, Christians when they act something with their faith, they need Magisterium because knowing Christ is never knowing an idea of Christ but a personal faith experience to encounter with Christ. That’s why Christians have a relationship with Magisterium though conscience carries them to Jesus.

Catholic theology admits private revelation. Sometimes such revelation is confusing. In this situation, it must be asserted that the Christian faith is based on God's public revelation. He communicates himself to human beings and shows the secrets of his will. This plan of salvation has been established from the very beginning. He spoke to our ancestors in various ways by the prophets. However, in these last days, he has spoken to us by a Son, that is, Jesus Christ (Heb 1:1-2). Whatever Jesus says and does reveal God's plan and will. Whoever sees him sees the Father (John 14:9). Therefore, this paper aims to show that Jesus Christ is the climax of God's revelation.

The formulation of the Christian faith regarding the divinity of the person of Jesus Christ is based on the kerygma of the New Testament, which clearly proclaims his preexistence, his exaltation as the Lord after his resurrection, and his parousia. Entering into the new ambience of the hellenistic culture under the Roman Empire, this faith, rooted in a jewish soil, had to be formulated in a theological language to keep it from any speculative distortion. This effort ended in the Council of Chalcedon in 451, but with some schismatic problems as regards the position of the Egyptian, Armenian and Syriac Churches. This paper wants to examine the history of this formulation in the past, and the ecumenical dialogue after the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Churches, and also with the above Churches, regarding this fundamental faith on the same Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Letter to the Hebrews is one of the most difficult and, at the same time, intriguing writings in the New Testament. Its author is responding to a particular crisis of the christian community. His theology is based on the basic christian teachings but then is developed as a response to the congregation’s need. One of his original ideas is the high priestly of Christ. It is significant because Jesus did not come from the line of the High Priests of Israel. This paper intends to understand why the author of Hebrews presents Jesus Christ as a High Priest according to Melchizedek and to see the significance of this Christology in responding to the current crisis.
