CATHOLIC CHURCH SEEKS UNITY AMONG CHRISTIANS
Five hundred years ago this month, on October 31, 1517, Martin Luther, an Augustinian monk, published his 95 theses questioning practices in the Catholic Church at that time. In the next several years Luther’s work together with other religious, political and social currents fractured the unity of the Church. The Second Vatican Council expressed the growing hope of the Church that Christians be reunited. Saint John Paul II expressed this hope in his encyclical letter “Ut Unum Sint” (“That They May Be One”). The Pope used as the title of his encyclical a part of Jesus’ prayer from John 17. What Saint John Paul II wrote guides us in our search for unity among Christians. “In the present situation of the lack of unity among Christians and of the confident quest for full communion, the Catholic faithful are conscious of being deeply challenged by the Lord of the Church. The Second Vatican Council strengthened their commitment with a clear ecclesiological vision, open to all the ecclesial values present among other Christians. The Catholic faithful face the ecumenical question in a spirit of faith. The Council states that the Church of Christ "subsists in the Catholic Church, which is governed by the Successor of Peter and by the Bishops in communion with him", and at the same time acknowledges that "many elements of sanctification and of truth can be found outside her visible structure. These elements, however, as gifts properly belonging to the Church of Christ, possess an inner dynamism towards Catholic unity". "It follows that these separated Churches and Communities, though we believe that they suffer from defects, have by no means been deprived of significance and value in the mystery of salvation. For the Spirit of Christ has not refrained from using them as means of salvation which derive their efficacy from the very fullness of grace and truth entrusted to the Catholic Church". 11. The Catholic Church thus affirms that during the two thousand years of her history she has been preserved in unity, with all the means with which God wishes to endow his Church, and this despite the often grave crises which have shaken her, the infidelity of some of her ministers, and the faults into which her members daily fall. The Catholic Church knows that, by virtue of the strength which comes to her from the Spirit, the weaknesses, mediocrity, sins and at times the betrayals of some of her children cannot destroy what God has bestowed on her as part of his plan of grace. Moreover, "the powers of death shall not prevail against it" (Mt 16:18). Even so, the Catholic Church does not forget that many among her members cause God's plan to be discernible only with difficulty. Speaking of the lack of unity among Christians, the Decree on Ecumenism does not ignore the fact that "people of both sides were to blame",13 and acknowledges that responsibility cannot be attributed only to the "other side". By God's grace, however, neither what belongs to the structure of the Church of Christ nor that communion which still exists with the other Churches and Ecclesial Communities has been destroyed. Indeed, the elements of sanctification and truth present in the other Christian Communities, in a degree which varies from one to the other, constitute the objective basis of the communion, albeit imperfect, which exists between them and the Catholic Church. To the extent that these elements are found in other Christian Communities, the one Church of Christ is effectively present in them. For this reason the Second Vatican Council speaks of a certain, though imperfect communion. The Dogmatic Constitution Lumen Gentium stresses that the Catholic Church "recognizes that in many ways she is linked" 14 with these Communities by a true union in the Holy Spirit.”
LA IGLESIA CATOLICA ANHELA LA UNIDAD ENTRE CRISTIANOS
Five hundred years ago this month, on October 31, 1517, Martin Luther, an Augustinian monk, published his 95 theses questioning practices in the Catholic Church at that time. In the next several years Luther’s work together with other religious, political and social currents fractured the unity of the Church. The Second Vatican Council expressed the growing hope of the Church that Christians be reunited. Saint John Paul II expressed this hope in his encyclical letter “Ut Unum Sint” (“That They May Be One”). The Pope used as the title of his encyclical a part of Jesus’ prayer from John 17. What Saint John Paul II wrote guides us in our search for unity among Christians. “En la situación actual de división entre los cristianos y de confiada búsqueda de la plena comunión, los fieles católicos se sienten profundamente interpelados por el Señor de la Iglesia. El Concilio Vaticano II ha reforzado su compromiso con una visión eclesiológica lúcida y abierta a todos los valores eclesiales presentes entre los demás cristianos. Los fieles católicos afrontan la problemática ecuménica con un espíritu de fe. El Concilio afirma que «la Iglesia de Cristo subsiste en la Iglesia católica gobernada por el sucesor de Pedro y por los obispos en comunión con él» y al mismo tiempo reconoce que « fuera de su estructura visible pueden encontrarse muchos elementos de santificación y de verdad que, como dones propios de la Iglesia de Cristo, empujan hacia la unidad católica ». «Por tanto, las mismas Iglesias y Comunidades separadas, aunque creemos que padecen deficiencias, de ninguna manera carecen de significación y peso en el misterio de la salvación. Porque el Espíritu de Cristo no rehúsa servirse de ellas como medios de salvación, cuya virtud deriva de la misma plenitud de gracia y verdad que fue confiada a la Iglesia católica». 11. De este modo la Iglesia católica afirma que, durante los dos mil años de su historia, ha permanecido en la unidad con todos los bienes de los que Dios quiere dotar a su Iglesia, y esto a pesar de las crisis con frecuencia graves que la han sacudido, las faltas de fidelidad de algunos de sus ministros y los errores que cotidianamente cometen sus miembros. La Iglesia católica sabe que, en virtud del apoyo que le viene del Espíritu, las debilidades, las mediocridades, los pecados y a veces las traiciones de algunos de sus hijos, no pueden destruir lo que Dios ha infundido en ella en virtud de su designio de gracia. Incluso « las puertas del infierno no prevalecerán contra ella » (Mt 16, 18). Sin embargo, la Iglesia católica no olvida que muchos en su seno ofuscan el designio de Dios. Al recordar la división de los cristianos, el Decreto sobre el ecumenismo no ignora la « culpa de los hombres por ambas partes »,13 reconociendo que la responsabilidad no se puede atribuir únicamente a los « demás ». Gracias a Dios, no se ha destruido lo que pertenece a la estructura de la Iglesia de Cristo, ni tampoco la comunión existente con las demás Iglesias y Comunidades eclesiales. En efecto, los elementos de santificación y de verdad presentes en las demás Comunidades cristianas, en grado diverso unas y otras, constituyen la base objetiva de la comunión existente, aunque imperfecta, entre ellas y la Iglesia católica. En la medida en que estos elementos se encuentran en las demás Comunidades cristianas, la única Iglesia de Cristo tiene una presencia operante en ellas. Por este motivo el Concilio Vaticano II habla de una cierta comunión, aunque imperfecta. La Constitución Lumen gentium señala que la Iglesia católica « se siente unida por muchas razones » 14 a estas Comunidades con una cierta verdadera unión en el Espíritu Santo.”
