你有信仰、宗教、神學或與天主教教會有關的問題嗎? 程明聰神父在此為您解答。
Got questions about faith, religion, theology or anything related to the Catholic Church? Fr. Francis will answer them here.

My catholic teaching told me that once we commit a mortal sin, we lose all the grace of God and we are not in communion with the Church or God. I fervently believe so. However, for a sinner to repent, despite the need of our free will to repent, we still need the grace of God in order to be aware of our darkness and evil and thus to seek the forgiveness of God. In a nutshell, a mortal sinner cannot repent without the grace of God while a mortal sinner is not in a state of Grace. Kind of a paradox?

神父您好!我請教一個問題,申命紀中對遵守天主法律者的祝福,在現在依然有效嗎?現在我們遵守天主的法律,還能夠得到天主在申命紀28章所應許的祝福嗎? 特別是這幾年我獲得很艱難,經常問別人借錢,我發現,申命紀15:6和28:12都應許,衹要謹守天主的誡命,就不需要向別人借錢,相反,還要大量施捨給別人。 我看了這兩節經文以後,反思,是不是我沒有好好遵守天主的誡命,犯罪得罪天主,才導致我需要經常問別人借錢?如果我好好悔改走天主的道路,這兩節經文的祝福是不是就會臨到我身上?

程神父你好,想知道如何幫配偶或父母選擇醫療服務的時候,不會做錯決定犯了十誡中的殺人罪。記得和母親入護理院時,他們的服務分為四級。 第一級:當心臟和呼吸停止時無需急救,不服用抗生素,不轉送醫院。 第二級:當心臟和呼吸停止時無需急救,不轉送醫院,骨折皮膚外傷除外,必須時服用抗生素。 第三級:當心臟和呼吸停止時無需急救,會轉送醫院,會給服用抗生素。 第四級:當心臟和呼吸停止時會進行急救轉送醫院。 請問該如何選擇。

How can I ask for forgiveness from my deceased mother, because I gave her a lot of troubles and back answered her answered her back all the time. I regretted it totally and I asked God everytime for forgiveness every time. What can I do more to fully make her fully understand and repent as I feel guilty and drained for all what that I did to her.? What penance or what should I do to tell her I love her and I am sorry for all what that  I did to her.? She was for me but, to my poor understanding, I didn’t recognize it at that time. Help me father.

A practising Catholic will be marrying a non-practicing Catholic (who may not believe in God anymore) in the Catholic Church. Can they have a Nuptial Mass with the non-practicing Catholic not receiving Communion? Since sacraments should be received in a state of grace, and the non-practicing one obviously is not in such a state, what does it mean for the non-practicing one to receive the sacrament in that state? Will the non-practicing Catholic still receive the grace of Matrimony?

程神父,剛過去的世青節,都有些疑似褻瀆聖體的事件或跟禮規有些違背的事件在社交平台發出了。例如開幕彌撒全都只找平信徒負責分送聖體,這麼多的神父卻做什麼呢?小弟如沒記錯,禮規說明分送聖體首先是司鐸,當真的不夠司鐸,信眾太多,才可找平送徒(送聖體員)協助。可是,在世青開幕彌撒,看不到有什麼原因只安排平信徒分送聖體。其次,只是用一些收納箱存放聖體,有點不敬的感覺。其實,世青或亞青,我想應該是趁這機會,聚集不同的青年人一起,更新信仰,從而發揮鹽光的作用。可是,如果當中卻出現了這些疑似不敬的問題,我們可怎樣正確活出信仰呢?當我們強調聖體聖事真的是耶穌的身體時,但都出現這些不敬的安排時,叫青年人怎去相信耶穌聖體呢?

神父您好:我是近年領洗的青年教友,慕道時一起接觸現行的新彌撒跟傳統拉丁彌撒,剛開始覺得新彌撒比較易懂,讀經也比較豐富,拉丁彌撒相較之下則緩慢無聊。但是逐漸發現新彌撒的禮儀總是混亂潦草,而且神父的角色太重,每每無視禮儀書的規定而自由發揮,且全年都只用第二式感恩經,甚至講道常違反教理,使人如坐針氈;拉丁彌撒則寧靜無比,每次都讓我融化在聖愛的汪洋之中,可以很沉浸地與主交談。如今我不想再去新彌撒了,然而我們教區一週只有一次週六晚上的拉丁平日彌撒、一個月只有最後一週有拉丁主日彌撒。想請問神父:如果一週只去週六晚上的拉丁平日彌撒,時間已是主日的守夜(vigil),能否算盡主日本份呢?
