耶穌說過若望是耶穌所愛的門徒。這句說話背後有著什麼意思或我們應當如何理解這句說話?因為耶穌一定愛所有門徒及所有人。

請問舊的聖經如何處理,是否燒掉並將灰包好放垃圾桶即可?聖人傳記和聖經硏讀的書是否同一處理方法?

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。

Why do we see not much description about Jesus’s mother, Mary in the Bible? It only mentions mostly Mother Mary keeps things to her heart, like the loss of Jesus in the Temple.

「吾主耶穌求你寬恕我們的罪過,助我們免地獄永火,求你拯救眾人的靈魂,特別是那些需要憐憫的靈魂,領他們到天國裡去。」 – 在這個經文裡面的「他們」是指在世的人,還是已經離世長眠的人呢?

就教宗對同性戀立場的發問: https://www.bbc.com/zhongwen/trad/world-54642887教宗方濟各支持同性戀民事結合的立場,是否與天主教傳統教義有差異? 教會對同性戀問題應持何種立場? 教宗的言論是否反映時代的轉變? 這是否正確? 宗教教義可不可以因時而改?

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 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.

您好程神父,我有一個問題想請教您,請問啟(默)示錄22:18-19描述了一個不可饒恕的罪嗎?如果有人在過去曾經犯過這個罪,但他們向天主悔改過了,他們信主耶穌了,請問他們還能得救嗎?

媽媽幾個月前過身,她是天主教徒,她的葬禮也是由神父主持的,但我不是教徒,我想問獻彌撒於亡者有什麼用處及意義?我需要為她安排嗎?

Speaking of Matthew 25:14-30, I guess we all run into similar dilemma when doing annual review with our financial advisor in recent memories. While joking aside, Matthew 24:30 sounds like a mean gesture towards the receiving end, how should we fit in the scripture as aforementioned to the circumstances in your opinion?

神父您好,虛心請教了。請問哲學上怎麼證明天主是不是物質,而不受時間,空間的影響,聽說過一個道理,物質,空間,時間是3而1的,而物質,空間,時間是天主創造的,所以天主不是物質,不受時間,空間的影響,那天主不可以是無限的物質,佔據無限的空間,無限的時間,而創造了萬物嗎?謝謝期待你的回覆,天主保佑你!

如果只是覺得中國神話裡的神獸雕像很可愛,而想作為擺飾,這樣是否有違背天主的意思?

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?
