Reflection
 49:  Article 36 of  THE DOGMATIC CONSTITUTION ON THE CHURCH
 


                                       LUMEN GENTIUM
, 1964 

 

Let all Christians do whatever they can to make this world a better place,
a place where customs and laws favor rather than hinder the practice of virtue,
a place that is open to Jesus' message of peace

Christians are members of the Church and members of society.
Christians' everyday activities, personal and business,
should be guided by Christian values

The Church rejects that ominous doctrine
which attempts to build a society with no regard whatever for religion,
and which attacks and destroys the religious liberty of its citizens

Jesus, please help all your followers
to be good Christians and thereby be good citizens
