The Principles That Govern Catholic Evangelization

By Tracie Knight


Evangelism is the teaching of Christian gospel or the means in which the information of a belief is impacted to other people with an aim of converting them. The Catholic Church say great interest in spreading its gospel with an aim of obtaining many follows world wide, secondly the church wanted to spread knowledge of religion to some pagans, Protestants and traditional believers. In a nutshell is catholic evangelization begun so to of authentic holiness is a sense of mission.

Catholic Church is concerned with how people accept God. It spreads the message of the grace of God. The church puts into consideration some elements these are the message of faith that of hope, charity and holiness is key. For evangelization to achieve its goals some things should be attained first. This element makes an evangelist best equipped to spread the word of God.

These elements are as follows the initial one is personal relations with both the church and Christ. Christians are required act guided by their love for church and Christ. The church aims at producing great individuals who are to serve God. Christians are tired together by the church which is often accorded the characteristic of the body of Christ.

Another principle pertains to morals, attitudes and individuals emotions. Generally Christians are expected to be as saints. This pertains from how the connect with others in the society that ranges from how they behave in character and how they make use of words. Actually they are expected to act as a mirror though which the society uses as a reference to correct its immorality. They are always expected to be at calm which shows a great state of maturity as far as motions and attitudes are concerned.

The Discipline structure in addition prayer. Great Christians try to attain spiritual perfection and they should carry themselves in a manner that suggests responsibility. This goes hand in hand with prayers. A Christian should pray. Under prayers we have the sacrament reception which provides a special power to fill Christians with Christs life.

In additional reading spiritual items and charity works comes handy. This form of reading helps one to become prayerful. It is critical to have spiritual books they help build spiritual knowledge which strengthens the moral foundation. On the other hand charity which is key evangelization entails sacrifice so that we can provide to others. Charity should be grounded on spiritual discipline and not the individuals personal will.

The knowledge of Scripture as well Traditions and Customs: to spread the message of salvation one should have a good a great deal of knowledge of the scripture. These words carry a direct and immediate spiritual power the lord. Due secularization, Christianity has lost a great deal of control over the society. Catholic evangelists have made it their quest to learn about the traditions and customs of the societies that they meet as they go on doing their missionary works. They have affiliated themselves to this groups hence making easy for the people to accept them.

To conclude when you are an evangelist you need to learn the situations. That is one should have detachment skills through which they can distinctly separate different cases.This also promotes the independency of the person involved which limit the influences from the immediate society.
