Evangelisation & Explaining the Faith

Aspects of Evangelisation

Doctrinal Note

Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith

A clarification from the Vatican on the imperative to evangelise, in the light of modern emphases on dialogue.

"There is today ... a growing confusion which leads many to leave the missionary command of the Lord unheard and ineffective. Often it is maintained that any attempt to convince others on religious matters is a limitation of their freedom... In the face of these problems the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith has judged it necessary to publish the present Note ... intended to clarify the relationship between
the missionary command of the Lord and respect for the conscience and religious freedom of all people". (Aspects of Evangelisation N. 3)
